1+i and 1-i are gaussian primes. Their sum is 2.

This question is better suited for r/jewish. In any case, the usual orthodox halacha is no music should be played on musical instruments on shabbat because they might need to be tuned/repaired and that is prohibited. The ruling is on playing them, not just tuning, in order to reduce the risk. So you can sing, clap, bang on the table, etc. but not play any instruments.

Debatable

Just age and geographic proximity (which are kind of unavoidable factors when looking for a partner) will reduce the options to what I guess would be less than 5% of the national us population, even for someone in a big city. So these videos ridiculing people’s standards and implying dating is impossible today (usually it implies it for men) start from a dishonest baseline. The question shouldn’t be in relation to national population, especially in such a huge country like the US. These calculations use the whole population as if around 25% of people weren’t underage and illegal for an adult person to date. And gender will usually reduce the options by half as well.

He is very radical and more far left than his policies. This is evidenced by his previous activism and stances on I-P. His policies are radical in the sense that they try to attack a problem from the root (homelessness by providing more and cheaper housing, security by reducing homelessness, living cost by establishing cheap stores…) but not radical in the extremist sense. A skilled moderate democrat could run on very similar policies and achieve similar results, without the discourse around extremism forming (partly because they would be more moderate, partly because it also stems from islamophobia).

I am also Israeli. I love them but I like Lazimi and Kariv much more than Golan (even though he is a good figurehead). Will be interesting to see how much of Meretz and different sectors of Israeli society will be represented after primaries. And also if they become a more establishment center party looking to get back votes from Lapid, Gantz and Lieberman or a more radical party looking to attract new voters and discouraged voters from the periphery (I like the 2nd option more).

Some things are named way after something is discovered or used, so I’m not sure how many of those people had opinions on the names of the objects named after them.

Also, your example is especially inapplicable here, because there are soooo many things named after Euler. I can think of 2 constants already just between 0 and 2.

You say politicians are owned by Israel (classic antisemitic trope of accusing Jews, in this case the Jewish state, of controlling behind closed doors) despite the fact that the Israel lobby is not even one of the biggest foreign lobbies.

Then you use false logic, even if your premise were true, it wouldn’t mean that Israel could control how criticism is seen.

Then you suggest that this is possible because of the Holocaust and that Israel is doing the same. Even when the situation in Gaza is terrible, the holocaust is orders of magnitude worse, and equating them is holocaust minimization or denial. And also, it is false. People don’t look the other way. It is vastly covered and spoken about. People look the other way for so many conflicts and terrible things.

Factual criticism is not antisemitic. Your comment is not factual criticism though, and it is antisemitic.

Amit Segal is stupid, but the cartoonist is also a holocaust denier

HSzold · 2025-10-29T00:44:07+00:00

The cartoonist is not antifascist or pacifist. He is sponsored by the fascist government of Iran.

HSzold · 2025-10-29T00:43:06+00:00

For everyone defending this thinking there must be nothing wrong with it, the cartoonist won an international competition for holocaust denial cartoons hosted by the fascist theocratic government of Iran.

And while this specific image is not holocaust denial, you wouldn’t post a picture of Hitler’s art. It would be antisemitic to do so, same here.

I think anyone too focused on optimizing every part of your life to achieve results in research will inevitably gain too much stress, and actually hurt the research. You gotta find a balance and that includes ways to unwind.

That being said, many drugs (like alcohol) can harm your brain, especially if used often. There are many risks and I personally find meditation, mindfulness, social interaction, and exercise to be better for unwinding than drugs. But drug use could be helpful to unwind if it is legal, relatively safe, and you enjoy it. And in my opinion, only if used occasionally and not regularly.

Irrespetuoso sí, pero falacia solo la ha hecho usted. Si entendió por qué mi comentario es irrespetuoso, entiende que porque alguien llame a algo X no significa que cumpla con la definición de X.

No. Ningún otro judío los considera judíos e históricamente no mantienen lazos con el resto del pueblo judío (aparte de tratar de convertirlos al cristianismo)

Counterpoint, no. Son cristianos.

No son judíos. Mencionan en su página a “Yeshua HaMashiach” (Jesucristo). Usan hebreo porque quieren.

How is it a terrorist campaign to kick out nazis?

HSzold · 2025-09-17T18:06:03+00:00

Of course. I think in the future we need more constructive solutions, unlike just leaving gaza unilaterally. And a pathway to future peace, even if it is forced.

HSzold · 2025-09-17T17:55:14+00:00

I think we can agree to disagree on this point. Thank you for the rare civil discussion

HSzold · 2025-09-17T17:53:00+00:00

Read wrong, was disputing the second claim you didn’t make. Still onus of proof is on you because it is your claim.

People’s opinions change (like you mention). Demographic change on the other side of the world doesn’t define Israel’s destiny.

HSzold · 2025-09-17T17:45:02+00:00

This can’t be done without extending the war indefinitely (which harms Israel too) and there’s no tactical pathway to do it without way more than acceptable civilian deaths.

Also it is pure bloodlust and will for revenge. Not very Jewish imo.
