This is a great theological article on work and AI. I highly recommend giving it 10 minutes.

Is @Charbrodersen a heretic?
TLDR: No he is not! His “take” is biblical and a strong maturing of a Calvary Chapel theological position that has been murky.

I just had Grok @bot call my wife and schedule our next date based on my calendar and our shared interests. Our minds are blown. 🤯

Elisabeth Elliot is at the top of my Christian hero list. Her writing on suffering and surrender shaped me, and my respect for her hasn't changed.
Here's what happened. In 2020, historian William Stell interviewed Virginia Mollenkott, who died later that year. She described a private 1975 conversation with Elliot, and Stell published that account this summer. Lucy Austen, Elliot's biographer, responded in Christianity Today.
Does Mollenkott's story make it clear that Elliot was bisexual? No. It's one secondhand account of a conversation from decades earlier, and both women are gone. It doesn't fit Elliot's moral convictions about sexuality. It's interesting, but it isn't convincing.
That's why I was glad @LucySRAusten wrote her article. She's an authority on Elliot's life. Instead of leaving Stell's minority report out there unanswered, she held it up against the letters and journals she had access to and told us honestly what can and can't be known. She couldn't slam the door on the story with the record she had, so she didn't pretend to. That isn't gossip or slander. It's fair reporting, and it's the work of building an accurate public record.
We will all leave a legacy, and the hope is that the story told about us after we die is as true as possible.
The knee-jerk condemnation of @CTmagazine treats Elliot like a saint who can't be examined. Christians rightly demanded the truth about Ravi Zacharias, but that came from a documented pattern of abuse. This is one account that can't be confirmed. Elliot's legacy is strong enough to handle an honest look, and this story doesn't come close to disrupting it.

Elizabeth Elliott is at the top of my Christian hero list. I read the CT article last week. I was grateful that it was published. I hold a conservative view of sexuality. I’m not bothered by the substance of the article. Who knows what was actually going on in the 60s and 70s with Elizabeth. It seemed so dumb to read all the people who were bent out of shape. I’m grateful for CT.

If your life strategy is to play the victim, hate rich people, and wait for a political party to avenge your grievances, you are living an empty life.
Even if your champion wins, what are the odds their agenda actually passes—and then survives the Supreme Court? And if it does, how much of that victory actually lands in your life?
At the end of the day, victimhood plus government-as-your-plan-for-flourishing is lottery math. Unlikely. Impersonal. Unfulfilling. It is a poor way to spend a human life.

The fact that Dario is in the background talking to himself makes the SNL skit all that much more funny. 🤣

There is a fine line between serving your constituents and being paternalistic. Unfortunately Hawley is ignorant and paternalistic at the expense of human liberty and freedom.
🚨 JOSH HAWLEY EXPLAINS HIS NO VOTE ON THE CLARITY ACT 🚨
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) was one of four Republicans (including @SenThomTillis, who switched his vote at the last minute) to break with the party and sink the crypto bill's advance in the Senate.
His reasoning:
"My concern is all to do with farmers in my state. Ag is our number one industry in Missouri, and farmers are so concerned they won't be able to get loans from small-town banks, because investors will leave those banks chasing the yields available under the bill."
@HawleyMO said Sen. @JerryMoran, who also voted no, has language that could fix it - calling the issue "pretty doable" to resolve.
"We've got to make sure those banks stay in operation, stay competitive, and have enough capital to make loans or our Missouri economy will collapse."

The last 24 hours on Grok @bot has been pretty bad. If I was using open source I would understand. But when I'm paying a premium it is very disappointing.

I am very grateful for this ruling and disappointed in Baltimore city officials who opposed the accountability that an OIG provides. Baltimore has a long history of corruption. The path to restoring public trust runs through and independent Inspector General. @OIG_Baltimore @isabel_cumming

There is an unseen hand pushing AI safety as a political ideology.
Effective Altruists believe a tiny group of technocrats should decide how much technological progress the rest of us are allowed to have…. and how many shrimp your life is worth.
You are witnessing their attempted coup.
