Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

As a software engineer based in Canada with no plans to move to the US, I welcome the news of H1B changes. It benefits me in multiple ways, and I can’t really think of a downside.

This video is like an Easter egg of the internet youtu.be/-ahtp0sjA5U?...

And then you read the comments, and some of the reply threads of the comments and it’s like unlocking a secret room from an already secret area in Silksong

I'm proud that I'm not really struggling with Silksong. I mean there are some tough bosses that have taken 10+ tries, but I've never felt the game was unfair. I've always felt like I've had a chance and I usually just need to be either more patient or a bit more aggressive.

Between a "No Other Land" crew mate filming himself being killed by a settler, to a journalist being killed by airstrikes he was covering minutes earlier, I'm not sure how much more televised Israel's genocide can be

Copyright holders successfully sue American AI companies into oblivion. Chinese AI companies win and China dominates the next century. Copyright holders still lose.

So what will Israel do with 2 million dead bodies? Will they burn them? Giant mass graves? Will they sort the dead? All babies together, all women, all men, etc. think they’ll bury or burn families together?

Will they keep some alive to bury and burn their dead family and friends?

What a wonderful lecture. If you want a competitive edge against AI systems then this kind of knowledge and thinking is essential.

The Canadian government must do everything in its power to bring an end to the genocide of Palestinians by Israel's government.

Stop all diplomatic relations now.

Expel their ambassador.

Israeli government is worse than apartheid South Africa.
