A “Goofy” DJ’s Secret Life at the Center of an Online Terrorism Network
—
To friends, Matthew Allison was a likeable part of Boise, Idaho’s electronic music scene. But behind his computer screen, authorities say, he helped lead the Terrorgram Collective, an online network that inspired white supremacist violence.

TIL that some Unicode-implementations have a "bug" (peculiarity) with one specific Turkish character. The character in question is LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH DOT ABOVE.
There are two special characters in Turkish alphabet:
ı-LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS Iİ-LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I WITH DOT ABOVE
When you convert the lower-case character to its uppercase version, it HAS TO BECOME your usual I: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I
And when you convert the upper-case character to its lower-case version, it HAS TO BECOME your usual i: LATIN SMALL LETTER I
But Javascript (and macOS in general, just so that you know it ain't a JS-issue) converts the İ to i̇ + DOT ABOVE, i.e. it converts it to a composed character consisting of two unicode code-points, which is wrong, because the first code-point s already correct.

Dauert einen Tag, dann kommt ein PDF raus mit allen Behandlungen und Diagnosen, die man so hatte, chronologisch, mit Abrechnungsziffer (kann man nach suchen für mehr Infos) und Kosten.
Hilfreich, um z.B. einer #BerufsunfähigkeitsVersicherung zu beweisen, dass man bisher nichts Gravierendes hatte.
Oder einfach als Anamnese.

Publishing looks glossy from the outside. Inside? It’s built on unpaid labour.
My first book is out this year.
Here’s what I actually got paid, what my contract says, & why most authors can’t afford to do this twice.

Published Doesn’t Mean Paid.
I want to talk about money. (Ugh, I know. How crass.) Specifically, how much money authors make, or more accurately, don’t. I signed my publishing deal in 2023. My advance was £2,500. That’s it.Kristie De Garis (By Hand)

No lies detected.
When I realized how little publishing paid, how few books most authors sold, and how long and drawn out the process, it really underscored why publishing my own books made a hell of a lot more sense.
Traditional publishing is a lottery where the tickets cost way too much and, like any gambling enterprise, the house always wins.
