Just went to a grocery store in the twin cities. they had a security guard with a gun. just one, and he was old. I am not sure what beyond the appearance of support these businesses can do. ICE doesn’t have the jurisdiction to detain or arrest citizens and yet it happens because no one seems to have an actual plan.
But part of the issue is you are cherry picking WHAT JESUS SAID. You’re literally justifying their actions by trying to pretend like their book doesn’t give them justification.
Jesus said that you must continue the laws previously set by their god. His generic “be nice” message doesn’t supersede the horrible treatment of others the rest of the book promotes. And the part you’re missing is that all the shitty things people do now they can go back to the book and say “look, its says this is all ok. Even Jesus agrees” because it does say that.
This is what happens in all of the highly violent religions. There are good and bad parts and everyone wants to pretend like the bad parts aren’t there. They want to say that people are manipulating the word to justify things when honestly they aren’t. These books were created by people who wanted to justify their own actions, their own grabs for power. They invent gods and create stories to show that the horrible stuff they do is ok because their god says so.
The people you’re saying aren’t Christian are Christian. Sadly they most likely haven’t read their own book, haven’t actually studied it in depth. And the ironic part is that even then most of them still are following what the book says even when doing horrible things.
Or from the conservative he has “on the job skills training.”
Why did you skip the part where Jesus said he is here to fulfill the law, not abolish it. That we must continue the old law that told you how to get slaves from the nations around you and how to properly beat them, or to kill a woman if she doesn’t bleed her first time. I think only those who haven’t actually studied the bible would think Jesus was this great guy.
But that’s not really true. If you are a trinitarian then what Yahweh said is also what Jesus said. But even so people apparently haven’t actually read their bible. Jesus was exclusionary, used racial slurs for tribes he didn’t like, told everyone to continue the same barbaric treatment found in the Old Testement.
We have one like that too and I sometimes want to stop in and ask them about all the bible passages where their god says the oposite. Because there are far more passages saying to do bad shit than to do good.
Do these good churches igore these parts?
The fact the FBI is involved gives me just as little hope.
No, they have been a big supporter of the shittiest parts of conservatism so they don’t get my money.
I have been boycotting chick-fil-a for decades.
i just want to know why you never accepted my friend request…27 years ago
do you still remember your ICQ number? I do
trump is worried about his legacy, what they write in history books. he won’t be remembered fondly.
we are now in an age where history will contain more facts than pesonal views. we have the annual fed reports showing he was bad for the economy. we have all the police and judiciary reports showing all his crimes along with video of him admitting it. and we have archived tweets of him being a fucking moron.
You can’t rewrite history when the internet never forgets.
like the idea, trying it out. my wife already hates my phone.
it isn’t about safety anymore, it’s about making money.
The issue is two fold.
First the scope of the project is very important. When I am working on a web app the most complicated project is still 90% boilerplate stuff. You write some RESTful code on some framework using CRUD and make a UI that draws based on data. No matter what you are making, lets be honest, it’s not novel. This is why vibe coding can exist. Most of your unit tests can be derived from the types in your functions. Do a little bit of tracing through functions and AI can easily make your code less fragile.
When you are working on anything more complicated making code better requires you to actually grok the business requirements. Edge cases aren’t as simple. The reasons for doing things a specific way aren’t so superficial. Especially when you start having to write optimizations the compilers don’t do automatically.
The second issue is learning matterial. The majority of the code we write is buggy. Not just in range testing but in solution to problems. There is a reason why we don’t typically write once and never go back to our code.
Now think about when you, as a human, go back over old code. The commit log and blame usually don’t give a great picture of why the change was needed. Not unless the dev was really detailed in their documentation. And even then it requires domain knowledge and conceptualization that AI still can’t do.
When teaching humans to be be better at development we suck at it even when we can grok the language and the business needs. That is a hurdle we still need to cross with AI.
I love that all those games are now being ported to retro consoles. I have all the Commander Keen games in my pocket for when I feel like fighting aliens.
i had an HR person who kept saying their “wages are competative” as if that was something to brag about. you are saying you pay the lowest possible pay that still brings in employee. loved leaving that job after a decade, told that HR person to go fuck herself when she tried to talk to me my last day.
there are voice to text apps that run a model on your phone. a few more cores on our devices or some more optimisations to the models and we can run an LLM. The problem is battery life and heat.
Yes I get that but what do you want them to do? Hire a militia and tell them to shoot any one who looks like ICE? The agents I have seen around here are inches away from going full nut job and shooting into a crowd.
