News@lemmy.world•Top UN official in New York steps down citing ‘genocide’ of Palestinian civilians
14·2 years agoHamas is the ruling, elected authority of Gaza. And even before them, other Palestinian officials have rejected multiple peace deals. That doesn’t mean all Palestinians are culpable, the same way not all Israelis are responsible for Netanyahu’s actions.

News@lemmy.world•Top UN official in New York steps down citing ‘genocide’ of Palestinian civilians
419·2 years agoIts is a ‘both sides’ issue when the Palestinian side has rejected every peace deal, commits terrorist attacks, and calls for the genocide of Jews. Nobody looks good in this conflict.

1230·2 years agoWhy is everyone so black and white on this issue? Israel has a right to exist. Palestine has a right to exist. It shouldn’t be hard to understand.

17·2 years agoYeah that’s a bluff. Google searches surely make up a huge portion of their traffic.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?
201·2 years agoA “US-American” if you need to be very clear. But most people just say “American”.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are the most mindblowing things in mathematics?
12·3 years agoThe Julia and Mandelbrot sets always get me. That such a complex structure could arise from such simple rules. Here’s a brilliant explanation I found years back: https://www.karlsims.com/julia.html

Programming@beehaw.org•Tailwind CSS, and the death of web craftsmanshipEnglish
23·3 years agoI have to disagree with this paragraph. That Tailwind enforces a design system is its biggest strength. Having a small selection of colors, font sizes, and padding to choose from is what makes a website feel much more cohesive than one where developers pick arbitrary values every time they style an element.
But you don’t need Tailwind for that; design systems are easy to implement these days using CSS custom properties.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does Lemmy have an “algorithm”? Like if I engage with one community a lot, will that show up more in my feed?
21·3 years agoThat was true at one point, but reddit has had personalized rankings for a while now. See: https://www.reddit.com/r/changelog/comments/7hkvjn/what_we_think_about_when_we_think_about_ranking
But your point stands; reddit’s earlier ranking methodology was obviously pretty good since it made the site so popular.

313·3 years agoThanks that makes sense. I get why some people are against it, but ranking on your engagement can be super useful imo. Like if I comment on a couple niche communities a lot, I don’t want those to be drowned out by the much larger communities.
Nothing comes to mind, but I haven’t used it a ton tbh. Just for a couple sites. I do trust Mozilla though and it’s a nice way to support them.
I’ve been happy with Relay so far. I honestly didn’t know Proton had an offering for this though, they should advertise it a bit better.


If that’s how Putin got rich, Elon is soon to catch up
