This story is horrific even as it confirms what everyone looking at this already knew- that Palestinians are killed for sport, that there are no limitations on their deaths and that they can kill anyone they like with no rules or regulations impeding them

When I taught our purely PDE course, I used Farlow's PDE book, which is not OER, but very inexpensive. Downside is it has a lot of typos, here's my errata list: math.okstate.edu/people/lebl/...

We're supposed to pretend this situation is complicated but it's really not. Both of these guys have inexcusably killed/hurt a bunch of civilians while their deputies repeatedly make public statements confirming the goal is to commit crimes against civilians. That should be prosecuted.

Cornell's encampment ends, voluntarily, after 2.5 weeks of being more or less left alone by uni admin. A marked contrast to Dartmouth, Columbia, etc.
Too bad peaceful ends to peaceful encampments don't make national news. Grossly distorts public perception.

A few other thoughts: If it is true that Israel is more careful to not hit cars with big UN letters on them, then the civilian toll is much higher than 35k. If you believe that the toll is significantly less than 35k, it implies that Israel is targeting UN workers.

Why mostly civilians? Well because a random killing of 35k Gazans would probably kill only about 400 Hamas militants. Roughly 32-35k minus 400 is still roughly 32-35k.

Note that given 191 UN staff worker deaths extrapolates to 32-35k deaths in Gaza, that is, if you randomly killed approximately 35k people in Gaza, you'd expect 191 UN worker deaths. As the deaths are not random but somewhat targeted: 1) real toll is higher, 2) the 32-35k are probably civilians.

The coverage of universities calling riot police on their students has been really feeble. One of the first questions I’d ask is, “did you have a statement prepared in the event you killed one of your students?”

This is not true, even in the US. 39% of US voters think Israel is committing genocide (including 22% of Republicans!), 38% think it is not (rest is unsure). I would say that's more than just "on social media". www.dataforprogress.org/blog/2024/5/...

I don’t think there’s much if any validity to this analogy, but taken on its own terms, it’s the pro-Palestinian protesters and the faculty members who sought to protect them who are facing summary suspensions and expulsions.

So apparently including all outstanding warrants, DJT (Trump media) has valuation of 9.4 billion. So given that the yearly revenue is 4 million, it will take over 2300 years in revenue to get to the valuation. And that's revenue, not income. Those are some numbers.
