In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization
It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

Hey slightly serious post, please share if you can: if you are a #software developer in the #Australia area and are looking for a #tech job, please reach out to me. I'm looking for mid or senior engineers who excel at constraint based optimizations, typescript, and k8s. Sound like you? Get in touch.

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation. I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

Because they are white, the media calls them a “brat pack” not white gangs. Remember when the racist Australian media spread fear of (nonexistent) African gangs and white people feeling unsafe to go to restaurants? #ausmedia #auspol

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

'Hero' who wrestled gun from Bondi shooter named as Ahmed al Ahmed

A "hero" bystander who was filmed wrestling a gun from one of the Bondi Beach attackers has been named as 43-year-old Ahmed al Ahmed.

Video verified by the BBC showed Mr Ahmed run at the gunman and seize his weapon, before turning the gun round on him, forcing his retreat.

Mr Ahmed, a fruit shop owner and father of two, remains in hospital, where he has undergone surgery for bullet wounds to his arm and hand, his family told 7News Australia.

Press conference beginning now. 12 deaths plus one of the shooters. "This attack was designed to target Sydney's Jewish community on the first night of Hanukkah... this attack is being designated as a terrorism event." there you have it.

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

I effectively grew up on games developed by id Software. But I'm happy as fuck that somewhere in my late 20s I swapped from idolising John Carmack for tech reasons, to John Romero for simply being a better person.

Output from a terminal, showing some array operations for a programming language I'm building. The array operations are basic arithmetic operations that apply to every element in the array, like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and integer division. There is also an operator for checking if a number is divisible by another number.
