racists and fascists rely on “blood quantum” arguments

I have no idea what that is and I am too afraid to ask.

I hear you. Not everything is because of the smart phones and social media. And I agree that awareness is increasing the diagnosis numbers.

I would be sceptical if I didn’t know of this random author as well. But look into him, at least check his Wikipedia article. Maybe see his TED talk. Read a couple interviews. Don’t accept my recommendation at face value.

There are a lot of people out there trying to make us feel lacking so they can sell something. But I don’t think Haidt is one of those people.

I learned a thing or two from his material. Your mileage might vary, obviously.

I need your notes. My daughter is 2.5. I would appreciate if you can share your experience, how is it working, how you set the rules of engagement, etc.

You might want to take a look at this: https://jonathanhaidt.com/anxious-generation/

I am not sure if this is an orientalist/racist comment (no women in streets because it is the Middle East/they are Arabs) or a super based one (it is the stronghold of the more religious/jihadist groups).

They are the feet?

I agree that humans are remarkably creative, and I agree “don’t have kids” is reasonable. But the “end of humanity” might come through this. However, I agree that we might be able to survive this. But please take it seriously. The whole climate crisis is a complex challenge by itself, and the politicization of it, along with the capitalistic interests, are complicating it further. We need urgent global action if we want humanity to survive.

Consider: Not all those billions of people will survive the sudden shift in climate. The breaking points in climate make everything super difficult to plan for. It is not just about finding higher ground that is climatic for humans, the whole agriculture will be a big problem. The climate will be so different from what we have right now, we are not perfectly sure how which crops would work where. We need globally aligned tests, knowledge sharing at the very best, along with all the action we need to take along with carbon emissions.

This challenge, is our biggest yet. We need a global, aligned, focused effort. But, we are far from it. The stress is causing conflict everywhere. Our international order is not up to coordinate this global effort, unfortunately. And if COVID-19 showed us what we can have on a global scale as a response, it means every nation state will turn inwards, try to fight against it by themselves while also fighting against everyone else. This problem is the crux. Our systems, our worldviews, our doctrine are not up for this fight ahead.

There is hope. But there is also a lot to despair about.

For clarity, he says:

Just like we entered Karabakh, just like we entered Libya, we might do similar to them.

Türkiye didn’t “enter” into either of those countries with its own troops. Rather they used Syrian mercs, and provided technical support, including “selling” their drones.

I don’t think what he means is sending in troops in this situation as well. Türkiye (or rather, maybe, Erdoğan’s ruling party) has existing strong ties with both Hamas and Hezbollah.

So my assumption on how this translates would be arms shipments to Lebanon. I don’t think they can get anything in to Gaza. And I don’t think either Lebanon or Palestine would welcome Syrian mercenaries.

But let’s see.

It is incredible. But only if you are into red meat. If you avoid meat, than it is horrible. You almost literally can’t find anywhere to eat.

You realise NATO has a “strategic communications” division?

Still good. My fave in Istanbul.

If in Ankara, Hacibaba.

If in Gaziantep, Kocak.

You can’t go wrong with those.

That was not the argument above, was it?

What kind of MFA you can use on a router, BTW?

I have a FIDO2 with Nfc, and it works. Is it convenient? No. Is it more secure? Yes.

A FIDO2 hardware key should do the trick. Not all MFA are based on communications.

Because they were “leaving money on the table” instead of getting it for their shareholders.

We are talking about the Israel’s man-made famine here. What is happening in Gaza has nothing to do with droughts, floods, or pests.

artifical famine

Fixed it for you:

man-made famine

It was so so good

I’d read that!
