Notes by iefan ðŸ•Šï¸ | export

 Boxing as a sport is completely broken right now, with no unified titles. Every division has 20 different belts, each from 20 different organizers. 

Now it is also being taken over by  YouTube clowns, who have no respect for this sport.

Watching this great sport turn into a joke is frustrating, especially when you love the sport. 
 Today, I was reviewing my note extension, and I believe a few features are missing.

An option to upload pictures and videos within this extension.

The ability to create scheduled notes publishing without external server.

If you have any other suggestions, please let me know.

To use visit NostrNet or use directly: https://notes.nostrnet.work/

 You can deploy any of these models yourself, and each one also offers a one-click deployment option with Colab. 

If you've never deployed a model before, you may want to watch some YouTube videos. 

You can also train them with your own knowledge base but they're already up to 60 billion parameter models.

 I usually steer clear of "wild" conspiracy theories, but something doesn't quite add up here. 

There's definitely something significant that we're unaware of. 🤔

 No, it's not the same. Hamas doesn't have an air force or tanks. Israel could have stopped them very easily. The only reason Hamas "succeeded" in this attack was because of the intelligence failure; Israel got caught off guard.

 What Israel experienced for a few hours (which was of course horrifying), Palestinians have been enduring for 75 years since the Nakba. 

You can't achieve peace if one side is essentially living under apartheid, and telling the those people to maintain the status quo is inhumane.

 Without any disrespect, I believe that a significant portion of what you just mentioned isn't accurate. 

How can we pursue a two-state solution when Israel has been constructing settlements in the West Bank, which are clearly illegal under international law? Am I overlooking something here?

You mentioned terrorism, and many people argue that Israel's continuous bombings in Gaza and its ongoing occupation of Palestinian territories could be seen as a form of terrorism. Thi is evident in that picture above.

Even if we assume everything you've said is true, it still doesn't justify apartheid unless you're framing it as some kind of holy war.

 You're usually very open to discussion, but I understand that some issues are more sensitive than others. One day, we may find a common ground.

 I don't think it's an excuse; it's a reason, at least according to them. Now the question is, is it justified? Absolutely not.

Civilians should not be harmed; it's one of the most hideous war crimes. It must be respected.

You mentioned that 6 million Jews died, and I certainly believe the Holocaust happened. But how does that justify the current ethnic cleansing, which is very visible in these maps? 
â–² â–¼
 I don't think there is any Palestinian state right now, even after the Oslo Accord. PLO didn't have any jurisdiction over air, water, or borders on "palestinian territories". You probably know that.

And Israel also doesn't want the PLO to end; they will never grant Palestinians voting and other rights. They have said that loud and clear.

 Hi 
 Unprecedented, the biggest security failure in Israel in half a century and something that will certainly lead to full-scale war in Gaza: 

"Residents reported and took videos showing squads of Hamas militants marching into the southern city of Sderot.

 Mathematics is the language of the universe. 

It governs everything from computer science to the rotation and revolution of planets and galaxies. 

Artificial intelligence, economics, even in politics, you name it, math is a fundamental building block for almost everything.

 Without history, the majority of this world is out of context.

I'm passionate about it not only because of its importance but also because I believe it's our fundamental duty as human beings to comprehend our own history & origin.

 Ok, right now, I am working on creating a blueprint for further Nostr calendar development.

I think at the bottom, it should display a proper list of just "Today's events."

Maybe there could also be some kind of to-do list, separate from the calendar. 🤔

I will also turn it into a proper PWA app and maybe offline support at least for read. 

Regarding notifications and alarms, I may or may not have something very interesting in mind. 👀

Give it a look, let me know if you have any other ideas. I really need good ideas. (Extension required)
