And WW2 only has more journalist deaths because some number of the genocide casualties had been journalists before the Holocaust.
Being a journalist typically provides you some protection in times of war, but for journalists who are part of a group suffering genocide, it's a liability.
From where I sit nobody is questioning that the Israelis are supposed to be the good guys in this story. But the stories coming from the region are horrific! Is it true that it is the official policy of the IDF to shoot to kill children who throw stones at them?
Plus because Israel is making serious efforts to choke off all information from the region, I understand that it takes some time before a sober accounting of an incident like this reaches the outside world. To avoid the charged rhetoric I have waited. Yet the point blank executions of humanitarian workers is still shocking to me. Such reckless hate, it must destroy a person.
They will, but Trump signed a new round of global 10% tariffs into being which hs a limited duration of 150 day until Congress has to ratify it. I couldn't find out whether there's a cool down on that, so that he could maybe wait day 151 and then start all over or if it's a one time measure.
The new 10% will be effect I've from tuesday and he expects all deals he made with several countries to just continue without protest.
Unless it's a context with a minimum required codex such as work.
But in your relationships, if you want to have meaningful ones, you need to find those where you can be yourself.
It's better to have 1 or 2 true friends (hell, most people don't have that many, you're lucky if you do) than knowing and being popular among dozens for a filtered/fake persona you built so others like you.
Doesn't almost every situation have a minimum required codex?
Sure, you should be yourself with your friends. But if they are already your friends, then you are likely already interesting enough. I thought the article was more about how to be interesting to people who don't already know you.
The author seems more about authenticity than boring-ness. And using the label boring vs bored, it comes to a similar outcome.
If I say, that guy is boring, he's inauthentic/poser/wanna-be, in my opinion I've failed that interaction. I am not engaging with him, I label him too mundane.
Yet, every person has genuine authenticity and need for connection, if you're attentive and patient enough to see it.
If you go around being frank and blasting your true opinions and true passions at everyone, you may miss a chance to learn more about them themselves, and move past the "boring" label you're putting, to see the real, struggling, suffering, but inherently interesting person underneath.
There is an issue with these folks though. They quite often are hyper-gatekeepers because of their own insecurity about not being "legit." They tend to be over-critical and thus quite tedious (& socially precarious) to talk to.
I love web components, but the fact that there's plenty of shadow-dom piercing properties defeats their purpose of "author them once, reuse them in different applications".
One very common pitfall I encounter is the html's own base font size, since it impacts all the calculations in your webcomponents. Use a webcomponent with a font size of 12/14/16 and you get completely different behavior.
If they were truly isolated they would really scale, but they don't.
Not to nag, but this seems like a design error? WC font settings should be inherited and relative, rather than any specific pixel size. Designs should be robust enough to support overflowing text, should the user increase scale/zoom/etc.
Admittedly, I might not be understanding your problem well enough, so sorry in advance if I've mischaracterized the issue.
"fun" fact: more journalists died in the Gaza than in every conflict since ww2 combined.
