When I met Vice President Vance just hours before the war began, I formed an impression that both he and the President had a genuine and strong preference to avoid the entanglements of war. So I urge that the ceasefire be extended and talks continue. Success may require everyone to make painful concessions, but this is nothing as compared to the pain of failure and war.
God does not bless any conflict. Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs. Military action will not create space for freedom or times of #Peace, which comes only from the patient promotion of coexistence and dialogue among peoples.

The National Planning Framework (NPF) governs planning rules in Ireland. It is under review and will go before cabinet next week. The NPF limits housing supply in all kinds of ways. Courtesy of @o_mcpartlin, are some ways to fix it 🧵

Well done JD Vance for uniting much of the UK from left and right of politics by insulting the whole nation.

From "Shtetl, My Destroyed Home: A Remembrance" (1922), a set of 30 lithographs by Jewish artist Issachar Ber Ryback, who died #onthisday in 1935. The series pictures Ryback's village in Ukraine before it was destroyed in the pogroms following WW1: publicdomainreview.org/colle… tumblr.com/publicdomainrevie…

Five years ago, a hacker I knew made a fateful discovery. He found a teeny vulnerability on a hitman-for-hire site on the dark net. A gap that he could squeeze through, and onto the backend of the site. There, he could see the kill orders being placed through the site.
The workable and economic solution here is to allocate a fixed proportion of VAT to broadcasting and media. Don’t give it all to RTÉ. Build a new mechanism. irishtimes.com/media/2024/07…
