Crazy that this is getting barely any coverage. This year’s European Press Prize was just awarded to an investigative report by the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant. It is entitled “What the Wounds Tell” and in it the journalists Maud Effting and Willem Feenstra document the cases of 114 children in Gaza under the age of 15 who were struck by a single bullet to the head or chest. Almost all of them died or were left severely disabled. They chose to document only the cases of boys and girls under the age of 15 (though often much younger: aged 3, 4 or 7) because these are children who can be immediately identified as such. “A single bullet in these parts of the body is a clear indication that these children were deliberately targeted“, the two journalists write. This is the article: volkskrant.nl/kijkverder/v/2…

A common dynamic I observe with AI: it feels most impressive when you don’t know much about the subject, don’t care or don’t have a clear idea of what the you want. This applies across design, code, legal, and more. If I don’t know code very well, every piece of code it writes feels very impressive. Once you know what something should feel or look like, it becomes almost impossible to guide AI there. And you definitely can’t one-shot it.

The Finnish region, Ateritsiputeritsipuolilautatsijänkä, roughly translates to “the bog on which the storage hut standing on a single pillar and belonging to Paul, the son of Pete', the son of Andrew, stands/stood on" 🇫🇮

Apparently I am not the only one doing these. Same cabin, different seasons.
I’ve photographed this location in Norway many times, but I’ve never seen it come together quite like this!

Life is strange. You arrive with nothing, spend your whole life chasing everything, and still leave with nothing. Make sure your soul gains more than your hands.

#Türkiye: We are very concerned by the detention of at least 92 people over the past week, including Istanbul’s democratically-elected mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu. All those detained for the legitimate exercise of their rights must be released immediately & unconditionally.
