They got some improvements. They didn't fundamentally change or fix anything. And that still required a massive movement. It also involved global political pressure caused by the US attempting to "compete" with the USSR morally (the US needed to improve its image during the Cold War so they could keep doing what they were doing). But I don't think you can easily compare the civil rights movement with someone hired for a job to "change [their job] from the inside". Usually if you don't do your job, you get fired (or fined, or imprisoned, or worse). And then you're not on the inside.

there were plenty of good people who were Nazis who tried to steer the direction of what the Germans were doing

it didn't matter what their motivations or intentions were, history just remembers them all as Nazis

yeah cuz they didn't do anything lol.

History does remember defectors and saboteurs if the news gets out.

They're literally just trying to get a job. It's in the second paragraph. You think some Trump person would do this kind of grunt work?

We’re looking at IDs, verifying the voter’s profile within the Qualified Voter File, verifying the precinct and jurisdiction where they belong and making sure they get the right ballot

We are doing everything we can to process voters as quickly as possible

Then just do mail-in voting...

"At the front desk … they said at this point, it’s an hour. They were right. It was 57 minutes."

I can not imagine wasting an entire hour just to vote. And do people who have to do in-person voting do research ahead of time? Or at the voting booth?

In 1945, Parsons separated from Helen, after having an affair with her sister Sara; when Sara left him for L. Ron Hubbard,

And an image with a smaller group (much higher resolution)

At around 7 minutes in she lists what other heads of state are there.

 

Up until 3 years ago I guess (thought it was more recent tbh), it would show blurry images instead of vector maps and satellite, but it looks like it's detailed now.

Previously I think Google had to comply with some protectionist policy that South Korea had in place so that people would use South Korean maps, or something like that.

 

If so, looking forward to it.

 

Jordan is so weird man. Whitest looking leaders ever. At 3:31 it looks like he has a literal child (who looks like Timothy Chalamet??) as a representative of Jordan.

 

Seems like a cool organization. It looks like it has over 90 countries as members, including Cuba, Russia, Iran, China, Vietnam, etc.

Israel is still listed on the members page and the competition this year already just happened, so lets see if they actual commit to banning Israel by the time the next one comes around https://ioinformatics.org/page/members
