As we begin our journey through #Lent, let us ask the Lord to grant us the gift of true conversion of heart, so that we may better respond to His love for us and share that love with those around us.

This is what the Butlerian Jihad is all about. It isn't "robots will tsoe over the world" it's "robotic minds degrade and corrode human capacity to the point where we become subhuman beasts". It's an extremely important distinction

A common Programmer brag is being extremely adept at keyboard shortcuts.
Tiling WMs, TUIs, Vim keybindings everywhere, etc...
But is it actually faster?
Apple spent $50 million on R&D in 1989 to prove otherwise:

I turned off all code autocomplete on my editor and I'm way way faster again. Most LLM based autocompletion products suck big time right now. The peak was literally 2 years ago. It's hard to understand how it's possible to degrade the UX this much.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was one Trump most vocal enemies. She detested him and was outward about it.

Our hearts are shattered. America has lost one of its greatest champions. A loving family has lost the most extraordinary husband and father. All of us must now dedicate ourselves to defeating the evil that stole Charlie from this world.

Once again, a bullet has silenced the most eloquent truth teller of an era. My dear friend Charlie Kirk was our country's relentless and courageous crusader for free speech. We pray for Erika and the children. Charlie is already in paradise with the angels. We ask his prayers for our country.

Yes
Historically, this is how man lost most debates
It took a lot of love, a lot of courage, a lot of radical gentleness, a lot of faith in the human project, and yes, a lot of blood to wrestle from human animals this very brief period of reason we have been enjoying together

The left accuses conservatives of "racializing" the death of Iryna Zarutska, while literally making sure to capitalize the word "Black" while not capitalizing the other, inferior color of white.
They are a pack of liars who have racialized quite literally everything in America since at least 2014, but really since long before that. They're not mad we're talking about race, they're just mad their white guilt spell is no longer working. Enough.
