I really like the server side routing part of Inertia and that you can pass data to the frontend directly in the first request without needing to do an additional http request (altough this might be a bit problematic for sensitive information in case the sites are cached).
However, there are also things that make it feel gimmicky:
- There are issues like this where they could at least merge the PR to improve the documentation as there seem to be many people to misunderstand the usage the function but it did not happen https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia/issues/1631
Great question. The journalist named in the article (Matt Broomfield) is asking authorities to delist the PKK (which clearly IS a terrorist organization targeting civilians) as a terrorist organization.
> * December 2016 Istanbul car bombing / suicide bombing near a football stadium, killing 44 people
TAK != PKK, TAK claimed responsibility. 39 of those killed were police officers. Turkish military also kills civilians while targeting opposing militia groups.
> * June 2014 Istanbul bombing / killing 6 civilians
Not intentional targeting civilians, accidental premature explosion of bomb. Only one of the attacks you've mentioned that was by the actual PKK and actually killed civilians. (e: actually no civilians killed)
To his defence, the TAK is often claimed to be a militant wing of the PKK, that handles affairs that might damage the reputation of the main organization. Like how the Provisional IRA formed fake splinter groups to pin sectarian counterattacks on.
I would like to add, Turkeys concerns about the NATO entry of Sweden were not without cause: Sweden has introduced an arms embargo against Turkey, prohibiting arms exports to Turkey. NATO is a military alliance and in case one member gets attacked, others have to support this member. However, one cannot really be sure if that will happen when one country has been initiating arms embargos against another member.
That's a complicated story. Turkey bought the Russian S-400 system instead of NATO weapons, partly because they have economic incentives to be on good foot with Russia, partly because want to be ambivalent enough towards the West to have take advantage of credible threats in upcoming negotiations, partly because of domestic policy reasons.
As was expected, they pretty much immediately found themselves under US weapons embargo. Modern weaponry form integrated systems, and integrating a Russian system in a NATO system is pretty much out of the question for various practical reasons.
The Swedish embargo however was different. Swedish law simply forbids export to countries that use force against civilians. There are plenty of well supported evidence of this taking places, not only in Syria. But all this have to be taken into context to understand the Turkish situation.
Perhaps unfortunately, depending on your perspective, the Swedish embargo was lifted when the NATO negotiations started. That is Realpolitik for you. Nobody wants to risk a Turkey allied with the Eastern block. And Turkey knows perfectly well to take advantage of that. Thus far it seems to be working for Erdogan. The deal maker image gains popularity, which is sorely needed with Turkish economy being what it is. The open question is how far he can push it.
it's wechat. you really need it in china. it's practically impossible to stay in touch with most people if you don't have it. a phone that can't run wechat is pretty useless.
hmm, i forgot about those. but i wonder if you really needed wechat and if it wasn't possible to scan them with the government provided app that tracks your healthcode too. i think offering wechat support was more out of convenience, and not to push people to use wechat.
For what it is worth, we work on a tool[0] to index all local videos and images and later allowing query just using natural language. It is based on CLIP which has been trained on image-text pairs, but seems to work great for videos after applying some naive heuristics.
How did you find out the name of the company behind GitHub24 though? If I go to their website I do cannot see it, I even cannot find anything if I search the company name.
I was also surprised when I saw it. A GbR is a German "Gesellschaft bürgerlichen Rechts" which does not need to be formally incorporated and offers no limited liability. The name needs to include the names of all partners, so we can deduce it is being run by two persons. I am quite surprised they do this without liability protection. Upon googling, I found only a playlist on YouTube which has this name and contains one explainer video about signing up a company with German tax authorities.
If they are indeed based in Germany, they're required to have an Impressum / imprint on their home-page, without it, they risk being fined.
If you learn programming you can create a completely unique and useful program. Dropshipping on the other hand is thousands of different people selling the exact same product, there is no value added.
With authoritarian regimes, having someone who's not a representative of the regime doing anything to help others is often seen as a threat to the authority of the government.
However, there are also things that make it feel gimmicky:
- The resolve function createInertiaApp runs more than once (mainly) on the first page load causing a re-render and it seems like there is no plan to fix that in near feature https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia/issues/1595 / https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia/issues/1091
- There are issues like this where they could at least merge the PR to improve the documentation as there seem to be many people to misunderstand the usage the function but it did not happen https://github.com/inertiajs/inertia/issues/1631
