Depends on what the purpose of the button is.

A setting should show the current state, but an action (referring to the play button example) should show the state it’ll transition to.

but I’m curious how you expect Gazans to sing peace’s praises

I don’t, I only answered your question (“How is UNRWA perpetuating anything?”). Most of which was quoted from an article I linked.

I’m not the original poster you originally replied to. I actually agree with what you say about Israel perpetuating the conflict too, probably more. But UNRWA is undeniably doing its part too.

They teach antisemitism and terrorism.

I’ve found this article that talks about it (among some other reasons), though I’ve also seen it on other sites.

A recent report by the watchdog group IMPACT-se highlighted that UNRWA’s educational materials, based on the Palestinian Authority (PA) curriculum, contain antisemitic content and celebrate violence and martyrdom-jihadist culture.

UNRWA has a significant position in educating almost 545,000 Palestinian children across the Middle East.

The IMPACT-se report examined educational materials used in UNRWA schools, particularly in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem, where the PA curriculum is adopted.

The PA curriculum, which has been under scrutiny since its 2016 revision, is found to contain – like it did before its revision – antisemitic content and the promotion of violence, jihad, and ‘martyrdom’ culture, while omitting teachings of peace and coexistence. UNRWA, while not producing its own curriculum, supplements the host country’s curriculum with additional materials. Despite pledges to counter-act calls for violence by UNRWA, the report found a disturbing failure to do so.

More than 80 UNRWA teachers and staff across more than 30 schools have been caught distributing hateful content in their textbooks.

According to UN Watch: “Teachers and schools at the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which runs education and social services for Palestinians, regularly call to murder Jews, and create teaching materials that glorify terrorism, encourage martyrdom, demonize Israelis and incite antisemitism.”

For example, I finally learned how something works after months of trying to wrap my head around it. Didn’t end up using it for a few months more, and now I forgot it again. I’m back to square one, trying to relearn things I already learned.

If this is such a frequent problem, start writing down what you’ve learnt. Get a notetaking app (my personal choice is obsidian) and record any knowledge that took you work to acquire. Then next time you need it you can just check your notes and there it is, instead of having to put all that work into it again.

Not surprising, given they were the only ones serious about advertising. We got so many leaflets from them at work and home and I even saw them on Reddit, yet nothing at all on those distribution channels from any other parties. I’ve seen some billboards by others, but it feels like 80% of the ones I’ve seen were SVP.

I personally hate them and didn’t vote for them, but I don’t think it’s surprising they have such a big following.

What do you mean with broken? Seems to be working fine for me.

If you mean it opens an error page, you probably left the thread open for too long. Upvoting and boosting does bring me to an error page if I do it after walking away from my pc and coming back. But a refresh fixes that.

I still use Reddit, I didn’t move here because I was pissed at apps going away (never used them anyway), just wanted to familiarize myself before I’ll be forced to move when they inevitably remove old reddit in the future.

There’s still communities important to me that either only exist on Reddit or have way too little engagement here. Until they remove old reddit or that changes, I’ll stay on reddit. But I’m doing my part by having disabled ads on reddit (I had them enabled before the third party app stuff).

I can’t post someone else’s book on my website and charge 5 bucks to read it.

No, but you can read someone else’s book and then later write a book inspired by theirs and sell that.

Which is what ai does, as far as I know.

I’m not trying to argue with the rest of your comment, but that middle part looks like false equivalency to me. “I can do this but not that, so why would ai developers be allowed to do this completely different thing” just has no logic to it.

The AI isn’t redistributing copies of even sections of the book, it just learnt from it. It’s like when you read books and gain an understanding of how they are structured and such and then you write your own book based on what you’ve learnt from reading books.
