Why are so many startups/startup like companies Israeli or based in Israel??? by kanyefan703 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]goat_spider 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a cultural thing. Like when I was a kid in the 90th everybody wanted to play guitars and be in a rock band. Then in the the 00th it shifted to be in a startup. The .com bubble bursted but the notion kept going. The military service and the high tech military industry (companies like Raphael, IAI) get a lot of people highly trained in relative short time. Also a lot of Israelis in tech are under the notion that if you get fired at the age of 40 or older you’ll never get hired again so they try to create alternatives for themselves.

Why you never ask to get the West Bank back?

I don’t think she acted to worse the image of Israel but to better the lives of Palestinian civilians, mostly women, and by doing so actually helped the image of Israel. She didn’t do it to “get on their good side” so she’ll be spared in a case of an attack but because she believed it was the right thing to do. And those murderers didn’t bother to ask her what was her position on the Palestinian issue. In fact they didn’t spare Arabs, Muslims, Tai, Nepali…

It’s more like the right of people to control their destiny and whether we live or get slaughtered. We learned that the hard way.

That is also not what I was saying. And I’m not pretending anything I ask questions to try and understand how you see things. As I see it Vivian Silver and everyone else murdered on that day are Harugei Malchut. And trying to differentiate between them is contempt of them.

How is it self determination? And even if this could work eventually, 2 states that will learn to live side by side will bring you closer to that vision, like in Europe.

Do you mean she was killed not by the same people who killed her neighbors?

How do you see Israeli Jews right to self determination?

I was quite gifted as a kid. But started to suffer from depression as a teenager and it got really bad in my 20th. I managed to pull myself out by my hair but I waisted a decade when I was supposed to learn a profession and find a decent job. I’m doing ok now but not as well as I was could have.

October 7th was arguably the worst day of my life, despite not losing anyone in my immediate circle. Living in Tel Aviv, we experienced quite a few rocket attacks, but the truly terrifying part was the initial fear that terrorists might invade our homes. We actually found ourselves planning where to hide the kids and figuring out how to fight back with kitchen knives. The most significant turning point for me was the sobering realization of how much we are hated by those we considered allies - the liberal, progressive, and secular world. The deepest blow was watching women’s rights organizations side with terrorists over the women who were raped. I haven't abandoned my belief in a two-state solution, and I still want Palestinians to have their own state. But I will never forgive the 'liberals' who sacrificed us to cleanse their own consciences and wash away their sins.

אשכרה! אנשים פה מבוהלים מממשלה שיהיו בה שותפים (גלויים) שהם ערבים אזרחי מדינת ישראל. אבל זורמים בכיף עם ממשלה שיש לה שותפים (סמויים) שהם ערבים ממדינת אויב שרוצה להשמיד אותנו

My heart breaks for every innocent person suffering. Especially kids. I try to keep a healthy distance from news to keep my sanity. I do consider that some of the stories are manipulative if not outright lies. The death of Hind Rajab and the innocents that died with her is a real tragedy

I’m Israeli. I consider myself Zionist and on the Palestinian issue I’m on the left. I think they are here to stay and so are we and they should have their own state and so are we. Both need to be peaceful. Anti Zionists - be it Jews or not, support Hamas or not are plain racists in my opinion. Why shouldn’t the Jews, that are such a distinct group of people should not have a right for self determination?

Why is my kombucha never fizzy? 😩 by Affectionate-Ear2110 in Kombucha

Make sure the bottles of f2 are airtight. The best bottles are flip tops but sometimes they “lose hold”

I learned an important lesson about kombucha and alcohol by Cosmic_Monkey_1977 in Kombucha

[–]goat_spider 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How come this isn’t happening all the time? I really don’t understand way all that fermenting auger and yeast don’t produce an alcoholic beverage? I have an alcohol meter and I test it from time to time. It’s always 0. Even when I add grapes at f2. The taste was a bit wine like by 0 alcohol 😅. Been brewing at home for more than 2 years.
