Essentially their position is "we dont care".

I have informed them I will post their reply but given them a second chance to update their position.

Of particular distaste was their insistence that all pydatas are inclusive. ⚠️ Can a Palestinian from the illegally occupied territories go to pydata tel aviv? No fucking way.

This is correct.

Just because they were prevented from delivering the aid and were kidnapped, doesn't mean they didn't do huge good.

A huge number of people noticed, and saw the injustice in Palestine, and some even looked past the official propaganda to learn about the real history.

Even the mockery from the "right wing media" eg Sky Australia, caused people to look deeper.

And that is a huge success.

Need some advice.

The textbook only has example of proofs with the "flags" all at the top of flag notation proofs.

But I think for this proof, the flag for `z` needs to be further down.

My reasoning .... because if `x` and `y` are instantiated inside the `z` scope, they can't be used outside it.

Am I right? Does scope not really matter in flag notation proofs ?

Attached image shows both versions for comparison.

Now to prove

(A⇒B) ⇒ ((B⇒C) ⇒ (A⇒C))

I need to assume (A⇒B) and derive ((B⇒C) ⇒ (A⇒C)).

But I can't seem to make progress from (A⇒B) alone, I think I need to assume A is true as well.

Intuitively the statement makes total sense. But drawing the derivation as per image attached using elim and intro rules, I get stuck unless I assume A too.

λ-calculus beginner question

The textbook says

can't be simply typed.

Reasoning is that the first x has an "arrow/function" type, eg A → B. That means the second x must have type A, which is contradicts A → B.

My question: Why can't both x have type A → A ? So the second x is A→A such that the type of xx is

λa. a→a

does anyone know how to have the "metadata box" in mediawiki?

(I'm exploring a few wikis as a total beginner and struggling to get this kind of thing working)

I'm happy to try other wikis if they make this easier

Eurovision does not ban Israel.

Double standards. For all to see.

Francesca Albanese calls for the EU's von der Leyen to be tried for complicity in Israel's war crimes.

This is unexpectedly good.

Why unexpected?

Not many people call out the EU because a lot of voices we hear are "Western" and there is a natural bias towards Europe.

They even see Israel as somehow "western".

AOC lied about Biden and Harris "doing all could to stop the genocide."

Here she gets called out by a nurse.

BUT ... what's interesting here is the audience shouting the nurse down. Pointing accusatory fingers at her. Physically crowding her. Ejecting her.

THAT right there is what's wrong with Democrats.

Shame on Eden for cancelling Kneecap - a group that called out genocide.

Kneecap are right - the outrage over what they said is a distraction from the actual genocide.

This young girl just wants to go back to brushing her hair.

But 80% of the Israeli public don't want that.

And too many in the UK, US and Germany are finding ways to blame her for her mistreatment.

He spoke of the state of mind of the children.

He also spoke of what is now normal conversation. Daily updates on who was killed.

We saw US senators speak out because youngsters could see through the pro-israel propaganda and cultural conditioning in the USA where it is really strong.

I really think that in a healthy democracy we need to maintain our brain muscles by exposing them to a residual level of bs.

I think a diversity of sources, even if they include stuff like Andrew Tate, is better than the tiny number of sources we had years ago.

Sounds uncomfortable but I think it is an axiom that a healthy information landscape does include mavericks and idiots and also shady ppl - for two reasons:

1. "Good information" sources can easily become bad if we don't challenge them constantly.

2. We say consumers of information need to maintain the fitness of our our critical thinking.

I'm increasingly of the view that so-called left outlets are actually there to attract, distract, and opinion-manage a large number of progressive people.

Remember how the guardian vilified corbyn?

Remember how the guardian threw Carole Cadwalladr under the bus?

Remember just recently how the guardian met a senior Israeli military figure and tried to keep it secret?

Luckily the next generation don't read newspapers.

The USA has been kidnapping people and sending them to camps for DECADES.

It didn't start under Trump.

British man Moazzam Begg was innocent, but was kidnapped and renditioned to Guantanamo and tortured for years.

is Tusky still the best app for #mastodon ?

I chose it ages ago when some people thought it was better than the official app.

I ask now because I notice the web ui renders some `code` properly but the Tusky doesn't

myself I value good UX/UI so happy to have a less functional but more pleasant app

Had to have "that" conversation with my daughter today.

She's seeing Reform posters and placards around where we live.

We talked about historic colonialism and racism and how, for many British people, she'll never be an equal citizen.

If mastodon social admins take it down I will use whatever means available to me to find out why they apply double standards.

At minimum GDPR SAR to get them to explain why this and not other posts get censored. They don't censor posts on Ukraine or El Salvador or Nazi Germany with far more graphic imagery.

Perhaps we'll expose an account that is acting on behalf of the apartheid genocidal regime?

Dear American friends

Some of you are asking "how did this all happen suddenly".

It didn't happen suddenly. It's what the US Empire has been doing to others around the world, and it was tolerated or ignored at home in the USA.

Genocide in Gaza. Kidnapping and rendition to black sites in Poland and Syria, not just Guantanamo. Death squads in Latin America. Drone attacks in Afghanistan. Abu Ghraib...

If you never want this to happen again - you most end it for all, anywhere.
