Amazing. What a Psy op. Has she even read the NT?
Youtube + engine review. All you need. Chess is fascinating in that it always seems ahead of the curve with really important things like man's relationship with computers (Kasparov vs Deep Blue being highly symbolic as the moment mankind started to "lose" to AI), and as you point out, how people learn but also how people interact with one another (all online now)
My rule is that if art depicts a biblical scene, then it's just scripture presented in visual form. It's like a translation, then. It brings the story to life and helps people to become more intimately familiar with the word. I also consider a cross to be acceptable displayed at church or in the home or upon the believer as jewelry, for example. Empty cross only, and a reminder to believers that the cross is empty because Christ is alive, and to take up their own cross to follow him.
Thank you for your service Darth 🫡
Ok. I see. Thanks for explaining.
"who" as is "who is Muhammad"? I think you know that so maybe I misunderstand your question.

Death, be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow
Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go,
Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,
And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.

Thanks for sharing this. Getting "unable to send zap" to your address btw.
What are your thoughts on elite theory Laser? After reading The Populist Delusion by Neema Parvini I came to the conclusion the world is just a chessboard for elites and counter elites to fight over. The "popular movements" go nowhere without elites because the plebs just want to gril and can't organize and direct energy towards political ends. What is needed for that is sociopaths who live for nothing but power. While the plebs get a voice through this process, that never leads towards utopia because that voice is always coopted by elite interests, which ultimately boil down to controlling and taxing the plebs. That's not to say we don't get momentary relief when a set of counter elites take over. I think life under the Trump regime is objectively better than under Biden/Harris. But still, we should temper expectations. Ultimately, I believe that we live in a fallen world, and our hope must lie in salvation through Christ alone through faith alone by grace alone.
Is "Internet of Agents" going to be the next corporate buzz word? This seems to be an area very relevant to Nostr, Bitcoin, Lightning. I see that the large corporates are ignoring these and doing their usual thing of trying to create their own walled gardens or at least try to capture the protocol / standard to favor their own product lines. Is this where Nostr, Bitcoin, Lightning rise to prominence and disrupt the world in a meaningful way? I.e. as the glue that brings disparate AI systems together?
Do you play chess Jack? I never saw the appeal of Go although I understand it's supposed to be a very rich and deep game.

Now ask yourself if there is a single leader in corporate Japan who even understands the challenges/opportunities AI brings, never mind executing on them like this guy.
If you think Japan is screwed now I've got bad news for you in how I fear it's going to be in 5/10 years time. Japan is already only 30% as productive as California (which has a GDP almost the size of Japan's with 1/3 the population) but I honestly think that is going to sub 10% and fast. The future of Japan has to be either a second Meiji Restoration whereby counter elites embrace US business culture and practices or else full on colonization as US companies swoop in to buy up every Japanese asset with language no longer a barrier as AI makes localization effortless. It's going to be a jaw dropping end to the decade out here.
