sounds like you're focusing on the wrong billions, the war on iran alone could provide housing to all homeless in the US.
It's not for a lack of money people are homeless in the US (which is launching this). it's for a lack of political will, because voters don't want to provide free housing to homeless people. They're more concerned about being able to buy instead of rent a house (less apartments, more houses) or protect the value of their house ("no homeless people near me, and certainly an abundance of housing reduces prices for my house investment").
Hey, at least those issues won't be a problem, if homeless people can charter a flight to Mars, if these efforts pan out.
Nuremberg was only possible because Germany was invaded succesfully by allied forces.
All this war crime talk is nonsense. Either talk about sending your own children to war against Israel, or criticize them in other real terms. There are no war crimes against countries who don't recognize the ICJ, and even then, unless the judiciary of the country is consenting, a war crime charge isn't pursued.
It isn't a competition, but I hope you're neither an American nor a Russian, because if you are, clean your own house first before talking about how dirty someone else's is.
if you are american, cleaning your house involves going head to head with the zionist lobby which works for israel's interests. so i'm afraid the matter of israel can't be avoided here.
that sounds like propaganda to me. what is "zionist" anyone who looks after the interests of israel and its right to exist (that's not the same as supporting this war for the record)? and what does zionism have to do with these wars or war crimes? Isn't it precisely the anti-zionist sentiment you eschew that resulted in the Oct 7 attacks by Hammas, which lead to this war? Or are you suggesting genocide/ethnic-cleansing but it's fine so long as it's jews? Israel has been around for ~80 years now as a country, the US has been around 250, what's your metric on how long a country has to be around before you can call your sentiment ethnic-cleansing?
perhaps you're saying the people who support the war lobbying in the US are to blame? Yeah, they suck, but what do you suggest? Iran, Hezbolla (in lebannon) and Hammas (freely elected by Palestinians) all not just don't recognize israel's right to exist, but they continually threaten to kill all Israelis and reclaim the land (and this is after countries like Iran expelled all their jewish population). So you want Israel to be self-sufficent, all with it's own nukes. What's your expectation, that they'll give up and leave (where to?), or they'll be unable to defend themselves without the help of the US, and they'll avoid using their nukes? What happens when Iran gets nukes, will they watch and wait until they get nuked, because they're afraid the US will not like them anymore (look at what they're doing now when virtually everyone but the US isn't on their side).
I just don't get it, I know you're just repeating propaganda, but it saddens me to see the lack of critical thinking, or any thought or attempt to actually seek peace or advocate positions and politics that will have some realistic positive impact.
I mean come on, the US is still in NATO and only because of trump's remarks and hostility, Europe is rearming itself against an undetermined potential aggressor, that's while they still have US support. You want the US to pull all of it's military support, for a country that has been facing existential threats since its founding, and you expect peace out of that? or is your aim to see tens of millions die on both sides, and you're just rooting for Israel to be wiped off the map, and that somehow is victory?
Do you know why there is a cease-fire today, in Lebanon? Because the US demanded it as part of the cooperation with Israel, that's it. That's what supporting them purchases, influence. Not supporting them doesn't result in peace. Do you know why Israel hasn't been bombing Iran already? because their ally the US didn't want them to, they've been trying to for ages. If these are the war crimes being committed, even with a displeased US as an ally, what do you think will happen when they have no one left to displease that they care about?
Do you perhaps think it's like the US over there, where wars end because their economy declines and too many soldiers are dying? The alternative is genocide against their people in their minds!
it's really annoying seeing performative support for those being harmed by these ridiculous wars. But I get that you and others actually care about this, I don't mean to dismiss that, but these sentiments have impact. I'm pretty sure a large part of why trump is in office now (and thus, why this war is happening) is due to people staying home or voting for trump because they disapproved of the democrats of kamala over not supporting that silly propaganda nonsense you're repeating.
Now, I've made claims that in multiple ways, your sentiment and views are contributing factors causing this conflict, and might cause even greater tragedies to happen. I hope you re-evaluate, or critically analyze my claims and find reasonable faults that allow you to articulate your own original views instead of repeated propaganda talking-points.
Israel does not have the right to exist as a state in chronic violation of international law. The typical corporation is said to have the right to exist, but a criminal corporation is not. The UN has been telling Israel to clean up their act for decades but Israel won't listen and continues to disobey.
The hypothetical “right to exist” is typically juxtaposed against its adversaries’ rights/efforts/privilege to wipe them off the face of the earth.
If a nation-state, or ethnoreligious group, has rights, then efforts to destroy it would not gain popular support.
Do ethnoreligious groups have a right to survival without suffering genocide? Does the international community, or Security Council, have a duty to prevent genocide, or the extinction of any particular nation-state?
I mean, I'll take being allowed to boycott israel and call their genocide a genocide in my supposedly sovereign country, without getting arrested over it.
Something is a crime only if it is violating a legitimate law. Laws that can't be enforced aren't legitimate.
Point being: Either war crimes get enforced (against everyone violating them), or they're not war crimes. They're just war oopsies.
If you're an American, contact your congressperson about passing a law that recognizes the ICJ, and requires turning over of US presidents and military leaders that violate warc rimes to that court. If at least you don't support this sentiment, don't talk about war crimes. For those who don't know, the ICJ works with not against the judiciary of a country (Israel's supreme court in this case).
compared to whom? how does one measure that purity? certainly Hammas is more pure in those terms, not that it is a competition (but you're alluding that it is).
They all suck. There are no good polities in the Middle East. At this stage into the genocide-counter-genocide cycle, there are no clean hands left.
We need to switch to renewables asap, and just withdraw completely from the Middle East. They all want to kill one another for fanatical or ethnic reasons, and we clearly have no capacity to stop them. We should insulate ourselves from the region and restrict any involvement to humanitarian assistance.
They could use passiveradar.com to advertise their product I guess, but they don't have to. I see no shenanigans here. I'm glad to be better informed about passive radar.
Another feature request. Why not have a nice webui interface to this? Obviously could just vibecode something on top of what you did but putting it out there that that would be cool
The goal was a fast terminal tool, and I'm not ruling it out, but considering how hard it would be to compete in the SERPs with other whois sites, I don't think I'd spend the time on it right now
Why would you care about competing with other whois sites? I don't think it's going to be a money making venture in any case, and you could easily host it for free on fly.io
This was really just a personal tool I built because I got tired of parsing default whois output. Don’t have the bandwidth for a web UI right now, maybe down the road.
It’s not about making money. It’s more that there’s no real way for people to discover it by competing for visibility on whois-related searches against established sites.
The link doesn’t load for me FYI. A web version would be in Go, reusing the TUI internals. All doable, just not where I want to spend my time right now. I’ll likely get to it at some point.
Just kidding. Honestly, the best ideas out there are low-tech. Anything where as you put it is "crowded" with tech people don't want, but is also of good build.
Or if you must add an LLM and a touch screen to everything, do it in a way that respects user consent and boundaries.
One thing I wanted to get into but can't due to time is sub-150ms responsive LLM for use with drones and bots. Faster response time than a human brain. Multiple LLMs running on dedicated hardware to preempt and predict response for various stimuli.
A drone you can't shoot-down with an arrow, and a robot you can't beat at dodgeball.
Now imagine the implications of that!? But the first problem I'd like to solve is remotely piloted work. if that LLM and response-time combo works, you would be able to safely work alongside a remotely piloted robot in a hazardous construction site better than you would with a human (it could even improve safety for humans). At all times it is getting audio/sonar, lidar, infrared and visual (image processing) input and several of these really fast LLMs (not just, LLMs aren't great at certain tasks, so naturally other types of ML and predefined routines would also be running) will be preparing if/else decision trees in case a potential condition is met. Sees a ladder just leaning there? what if it randomly slips, how would it react? plan is in place under 150ms while other plans are being formulated for other things as well.
They're utterly embarrassed it's just that they've been persistently encouraged via their amygdalas to project their own shame and insecurities onto others, as well as to swallow insane rationales as to why even though these people are evil it's a necessary bitter pill for the worldly government to swallow in order to bring in the eternal kingdom
Use the best tool for the task. markdown is really good for talking to AI as a human for example.
Same goes for JSON, YAML, etc.. use what makes sense to you. I like markdown but I have issues with it as well. I like html, but i despise it sometimes. One-size-fits-all is the real enemy.
My view is that for all *langs (markdown, config, data, code, styling,etc..) we should leave the proverbial cave and come down from the trees, and talk about interoperability and best practices. Contracts, expectations, and exceptions.
There is this pattern where we invest in some software technology, and it becomes this ideology people fight over. Or invest a lot into it and fall into sunken-cost thinking.
Being able to rapidly figure out the best tool/solution, and readily tear out the old and patch in the new with minimal loss and friction, that should be the next era of tech. Not a repeat of the old, with a slight twist. I don't need another JSON, Markdown, HTML, CSS, C, Rust,etc.. especially with the advent of LLMs (hype aside), syntax is important but it isn't what it used to be. I want to be able to write in Markdown and know that if there is a better format, I can easily stop using it and reliably transpile all my existing Markdown, and tooling that works with Markdown to use that new format.
Adaptability and communication are the biggest dead-weights holding back technological progress.
