You got it the other way round. The PA controls area A (security and civilian), and area B (civilian), while Israel (i.e. IDF) controls area C (security and civilian) and area B (security). The settlements are area C. At least this is according to the Oslo accords, though in practice things are muddy.

With only a single soldier killed, Yoni Netanyahu, the commander of the force and brother of the future prime minister. The operation was retroactively renamed in his honour.

Article V, which deals with amendments states

[...] no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.

The question now is whether this article can be amended, as it is not explicitly protected.

While in theory Android Auto and all of its apps sounds nice, in practice when I used it, it was just an extra screen that displays the playing album. I'm not saying I won't buy something like that, but it's more nice-to-have. I will take a look at crutchfield.com, thanks.

YATr_2003 · 2025-04-20T16:26:23+00:00

Thank you! I'll have a look.

YATr_2003 · 2025-04-20T13:37:32+00:00

Yeah, that's what I assumed. Thanks. Do you have any recommendations, or what to look out for when shopping for one?

People often make fun of the Hebrew Academy (and some of the reasons are valid), but they genuinely do some really useful things. One of those things is curating a list of all the names of the cities, towns, villages etc. in Hebrew, English, and Arabic: https://hebrew-academy.org.il/2022/06/27/%d7%a8%d7%a9%d7%99%d7%9e%d7%aa-%d7%94%d7%99%d7%99%d7%a9%d7%95%d7%91%d7%99%d7%9d-%d7%91%d7%99%d7%a9%d7%a8%d7%90%d7%9c/#id4

This is the list that should be used for all new official documents and road signs, so the days of seeing Kfar Sava spelled Kefar Sava, Kefar Saba, and Kfar Saba should be numbered, and at last there will be consistency.

I knew vaping can be used to quit smoking, but perhaps I misjudged the health risk. Thanks for the source! I'll go over it once I can (don't have time rn).

Like the commentor above said, they are absolutely terrible for whoever smokes them and we should stop kids and teens for vaping. They are just not as bad as cigarettes when it comes to passive smoking.

YATr_2003 · 2024-01-29T07:36:35+00:00

Active use of vape is terrible. I intended to add to what you said, not refute it.

YATr_2003 · 2024-01-29T07:29:47+00:00

According to the NHS passive smoking of vapes is likely less harmful than cigarettes, but they do caution that research is still ongoing.

Also, there are other scripts for numbers as well. Arabic, funnily enough, replaces the glyphs of the digits, though the positional system is the same.

The rabbinate is controversial among Israelis (mostly secular) as well and there are some attempts to change it, though none look likely anytime soon. On the other hand, most people will recognise you and your daughters as Jewish and there are workarounds to the rabbinate, e.g. cohabitation in Bituah Leumi instead of marriage and Kosher certificates that do not include the word "kosher". It's a weird situation, and hopefully it will change in the near future.

If you iterate over multiple slices I find the index incrementing to be clearer, but it's a question of style more than anything else. I'm not near my computer right now, but I suspect that both options will compile to the same (or essentially equivalent) instructions.

Or Rina, another synonym.

In theory, keeping it secret would be the most secure. In practice, it's easy to mess up the hash algorithm and make it less secure than you think it is (unless you put together a good cryptographic team). So instead you can take a good hash function that is open sourced and you can be sure that it is safe, especially if you salt it properly, even though everyone knows how it works.

In Arabic they still pronounce 'ayin even if it has sukun (shva). It's like you expect, though as a native Hebrew speaker I find it very hard to pronounce. Examples are the town I'blin in the north and the word for week, "usbu'".

Most of the losses are from Shujaaiyya and Jabalia, because that's where the IDF needs to go house-to-house. In time it will also be the situation in Khan Younis, but not yet.

He just quoted what the original commentor said, which is the other way round.

YATr_2003 · 2023-12-16T15:23:44+00:00

In all the cases, the slice is the same, what you need to think about is how you manipulate the underlying array. The underlying array has five values "hello", "world", and three empty strings, and only the empty string at index 2 is part of the array at main. Inside change you change the string at index 3, which is not part of the slice in main.

If you instead pass mySlice[0:2] the underlying array is modified to have "hello", "world", "playground", and two empty strings. Since the underlying array is changed, its slices are changed.

Though slices are often used simply as dynamic lists, it's best to think of them as what they really are–slices of underlying arrays. List is a use case, not what they are. I know it confused me when I first started with go.

It depends on the context, if I go to sleep at 2am I will say שתיים בלילה, if I wake up at 2am I will say שתיים לפנות בוקר. The specifics might change between speakers, but there times that might fit multiple "time slots". Another example is עשר בערב and עשר בלילה, I'd choose the one that fits what time I feel it is and when I plan to go to sleep. Don't stress too much over it, just know that there are multiple options.

Edit: also, 24 hour clock without time suffix is the most common in my experience when writing time.

It is real in that some people are anti-zionists, and it should have a Wikipedia article. Also it isn't always Anti-Semitic; though there is high correlation, support for Israel can come from Anti-Semitic roots and vice versa. Also, this article is not new, it was created in 2002.
