« Un très mauvais signal », « un crime » : les sénateurs très remontés contre les 900 millions d’euros d’économies dans la recherche et le supérieur - Public Sénat
Sur les 10 milliards d’euros d’économies, la recherche et l’enseignement supérieur sont mis à contribution pour près d’un milliard. Une saignée dénoncée par les sénateurs de la commission de la culture et de l’éducation. « Cette coupe budgétaire rentre en totale contradiction avec la loi de programmation de la recherche », dénonce Laurent Lafon, président de la commission. Le ministère évoque des « ajustements sur les appels à projets de l’Agence nationale de r…

"'famine is occurring on Biden’s watch, and there is no realistic way to contain it without ending the war,' said Konyndyk, now the president of the nonprofit Refugees International. 'This is the field team doing their job ― reporting ground truth up the chain.'"
We, Americans, are not only allowing, but arming and funding a genocide. If things proceed as it has been, Netanyahu will not stop until every person in Gaza is dead.
@…'s words say he disapproves. His actions say he fully supports the murder of well over a million human beings. Adults and children. A well-documented genocide in real time.
Biden says Trump is a threat to democracy. I agree.
Biden's stubborn, stupid choice to throw weapons and money at Israel for their genocide may well cause the US to switch from a democracy to an autocracy. A new genocide will start on US soil, then, with the forced expulsion of millions of immigrants and eventually anyone not "American" enough. Don't believe me? Look into Project 2025 and Stephen Miller's plans.
Biden has more power than most of us to prevent that future, but his devotion to Zionism won't allow it.

Hamas and Netanyahu are a curse on their peoples. Yet amid the horror, there is a sliver of hope
Hamas has agency even now. If it were truly horrified by the daily death and suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, as horrified as the millions around the world campaigning for a ceasefire, and if it simply wanted the killing to stop, it could release the hostages it holds, living and dead, agree the exile of Yahya Sinwar, the mastermind of 7 October

Enhancing Testing at Meta with Rich-State Simulated Populations
This paper reports the results of the deployment of Rich-State Simulated Populations at Meta for both automated and manual testing. We use simulated users (aka test users) to mimic user interactions and acquire state in much the same way that real user accounts acquire state. For automated testing, we present empirical results from deployment on the Facebook, Messenger, and Instagram apps for iOS and Android Platforms. These apps consist of tens of millions of lines of code, communicating with …
