Does anyone know how the amount of information is actually derived? The article just says “researchers calculated”

Every once in a while, you can refresh your memory by reading the man page.

Or if, like me, you use Emacs, Magit exposes everything quite clearly.

I’d argue that if they put up a Palestinian flag, it’s clear that Palestine is being referred to.

In principle, though, I agree with your first point

That’s an invalid (strikethrough: dictionary) etymology argument, and you know it. To clarify, when I said “antisemitism” I meant “a discriminatory attitude towards Jews” or something along those lines.

Edit: this is an etymology argument, not a dictionary one; most dictionaries probably agree with me. I don’t know how or why the word antisemitism came to be used to refer to Jews specifically, but surely it’s been this way for most of its history.
Either way, the most authoritative meaning of a word is that which was intended by the one who uttered it.

Antisemitism to Palestinian support is like misandry to feminism. Yeah, some people might be guilty of it (and those who are, misunderstand the latter ideologies), but it’s way overrepresented in opposing media, who is often guilty of such issues itself.

On my own system, but usually for remote work I use Vim as it’s easier to make usable

Perhaps you can encode them as computation (i.e. a function of arbitrary precision)

We need laws mandating respect of robots.txt. This is what happens when you don’t codify stuff

Everything is reverse-engineered, and different people work on different stuff. It’s not like the resources devoted to OpenGL could be diverted to microphone support, that’s a completely different skill set.
