Worst of both worlds is right. I came back to a Python project with a couple of critical but untyped dependencies recently after writing mostly Rust, and to clear up a large number of these (particularly “type is partially unknown”) I had the choice between lots of purely type-checking ceremony (`typing.cast`) or going without.
The third option here is writing type stubs for the library, which you can sometimes find community versions of as well. They’re not too time consuming to write and generally work well enough to bridge the gap
Yeah, I think this may be a good option when actively working on a project. Sadly at the moment, it's mostly a case of "I just need to make a couple of bug fixes in this old project, why is my editor shouting at me?"
It's only a personal side project and I have a good handle on the untyped modules in question, so in the end I suppressed most of the errors with `# type:ignore` and friends.
I'd reconsider that if I was doing more than the odd bug fix on the project. I still like Python, and started using type hints early, but there's enough added friction to make me question using them in the future.
Comparing Jagan and Burnham to (respectively) Trotsky and Stalin is extremely strange. Jagan was perceived as a threat to British interests in Guyana, Burnham was deemed acceptable if unreliable.
Britain sent warships and 700 troops to oust Jagan in 1953, suspending the constitution, and later worked (with the US) to ensure Jagan could not reach the top job again. To be clear, Jagan’s PPP had won 75% of the seats in a democratic election.
Tl;Dr: Run the VM with only modern paravirtualized devices, then run OpenHCL inside the VM in ring -1 to emulate legacy devices and the guest os in ring 0 as usual.
This is more secure, as the host only exposes paravirtualized devices with reduced attack surface to the guest. While still allowing to run legacy os.

It may not even be that nefarious — perhaps they did the hack “for the lulz” then had pangs of conscience afterward and scrabbled around for a (false) excuse.
In any case, the IA was in some cases the only public host of important documents about Palestinian history, which are currently inaccessible, to say nothing about how important the Wayback Machine has been over the past year.
Sounds more like they hacked it for the lulz and then put up the tweets for even more lulz. Attacking the IA to support palestine is about as nonsensical as you can get.
So just to play devils advocate, since Zionism is being critically received all across the Internet - it is more likely that IA was attacked in order to censor those materials, and then a sockpuppet was created to shift the blame to pro-palestinian voices - which makes no sense, since pro-palestinian voices would want IA to stay up so that embarassing Zionist material was made more available - but such is the nature of agitprop campaigns during war time: through subterfuge and obfuscation, deny your enemy the materials it requires to continue its campaigns, and also deny them the ability to identify the cause of that material going missing, also - or, at the very least, obfuscate the actors responsible for denying it, using sockpuppetry ..
Is there more embarrassing pro-Zionist material on IA than there is embarrassing pro-Palestine (for lack of a better term for whatever "the opposite" is) material?
I would not know a mathematically accurate response to this question - but I did see a lot of references to embarrassing pro-Zionist (i.e. historically racist, colonialist, pro-Zionist) materials at the IA in the last week in various other forums, which are now no longer able to discuss the materials as they are unavailable.
If there is "pro-Palestinian" materials at the IA, I would imagine it being based on materials collected over the past year documenting the genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity being committed against them.
There is a definite effort to censor any and all reporting of Israeli crimes against humanity on the Internet - IA was probably a last refuged for those collecting this material.
Actually, there's plenty of obnoxious "pro-Palestinian" material out there as well, glorifying Operation al-Aqsa Flood, "martyrs" from other random attacks on civilians, not to mention the propaganda that there's no such thing as "Israeli civilian" anyway, and so forth. There's no need to go looking for it on the IA because they're quite proud of this stuff and are churning it out constantly. See also: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41692193
BTW I'm a non-Zionist and strongly opposed to the occupation, etc. So please don't make any assumptions that I'm a hasbarist coming at you with their usual stuff. The depressingly tragic fact of this conflict is that there are legions of assholes and extremely naive, easily manipulated people on all sides.
i hate how Zionism has become a bad word, like it's some world domination conspiracy theory. as a Zionist myself, it's not at all likely that IA was attacked to take down Zionist-related material as these material are neither embarrassing nor damaging to Israel. on the contrary, I would like for them to stay up and be archived for all eternity.
what is more likely is that these pro-Palestinian hacktivists are once more engaging in misplaced activism, targeting those they perceive as tied to Israel, regardless of whether those targets have any direct connection. just see the boycott movements... they're boycotting Gal Gadot, McDonalds, and Starbucks
I don't think anything will ever be embarrassing to the Genocidal regime. And no damage will be done either, as long as its creators-protectors goes out of their way to protect it.
I don’t disagree but the events in question took place and were discovered over 30 years ago. https://www.upi.com/Archives/1992/01/04/Appeals-court-Sherif...
