I always think it’s unfair to compare things to video games. Video games are so inefficient they had to invent a separate processor with hundreds of cores just to run them. Of course they end up running well.
If cheap phones had a 128-core JavaScript Processing Unit, websites would probably run fast too.
I’m a web dev and yes they could. It’s annoying that web devs get blamed for it though, the reason for all the javascript is mostly business decisions out of our control.
Mainly the tracking scripts which the marketing department adds against out will. But also it’s a lot cheaper to have a client-rendered web app than a traditional website (with client side rendering you can shut off all your web servers and just keep the api servers, our server side processing went down 90% in the switchover). And it’s more efficient for the company to have one team working in one programming language and one framework that can run the backend and frontend, so the frontend ends being a web app even if it’s not really necessary.
Sorry I’m responsible for something Britain did before my parents were born, I’ll try to do better in future
No mention of the genocidal act or the group that started this all.
It may surprise you to learn that history did not begin on October 7th
Israel claims that Gaza and the West Bank are part of Israel, and that there is no such country as Palestine. If that’s true then the Palestinians are a minority ethnic group in Israel with no rights or citizenship. There’s no possible argument that isn’t apartheid.
Doesn’t stop Israelis making the argument though, by doing Schrödinger’s Palestine, which doesn’t exist when you accuse them of illegally occupying it (“it’s part of Israel”) and does exist when you accuse them of apartheid (“they don’t have rights because it’s not part of Israel”).
I wish I could find that one photo of about 30 photographers crowded around the one guy with a bloody nose at a 100,000 person protest, but google is failing me
Pretty sure it was him, but a photo from further back so you could see way more photographers. Literally every photo from the protests that day had this guy in.
It’s fun to compare the comments on this story to the ones about France banning various kinds of clothing!
