Yes, that is what I was implying. Now I will state it more explicitly: those values are each at odds with either secularism or liberalism.

I'm not entirely sure what an unquantified assumption is, but I clearly qualified that I was making a guess about the person. Making and confirming guesses about others based on what you know about them so far is normal behavior. I am by no means certain about the accuracy of my guess, but presented it as a starting point for further discussion.

From the article:

>"If I had to bet, I'd say that this might be one of the worst downturns that we've seen in recent history," Zuckerberg told workers in a weekly employee Q&A session, audio of which was heard by Reuters."

This is fascinating. I have seen interviews with everyone from Larry Summers to Janet Yellen, Jamie Dimon and countless other prodigious economic minds recently and the only thing that any of them state with any certainty is that a recession "might" happen. None of them have made any pronouncements as to the severity of the downturn should it happen. Yet here Zuck is, not only sharing the degree of certainty but also the degree of severity.

Zuckerberg really comes off as desperate sounding. I can't imagine this speech instilling any inspiration, confidence or good will in employees. Certainly not anyone who may have been on the fence about the whole "let's be the company on the Metaverse" garbage. I hope people do "self-select" and leave in droves.
"People moved to cities for economic opportunities" and "people can't financially afford to leave the cities" seem like just the glass half full / glass half empty versions of the same thing.

Put it one way it's bad, put it one way its good. It's a choice with tradeoffs - I'm just pointing out that those tradeoffs aren't some uniquely new "collapse of our society" thing.

Why not the other way around?

What did Python have relative to other languages that inspired these developers to devote so much energy into their projects?

They could have chosen PHP, Ruby, Node, Go, Java, etc.

If I think back to ~2012 I remember that compared to other languages Python had:

1) Decent package management and "virtualization" (via virtualenv)

2) Nice balance of expressiveness and strictness

3) Was fun to write, hard to explain but it was the vibe

4) Decent enough performance for most things

5) Lots of developer tooling for debugging and stuff

It felt like the least messy of the scripting languages.

- Everyone knows all the issues PHP had, no need to list it all here

- Ruby was cool but there were a thousand ways to do the same thing

- Node was inheriting that weird web language with all its quirks

- Go was just in its infancy

- Java was the kitchen sink
Because it's really nice not starving to death.

I think you are right if it is the good managers being fired. If it is the bad managers being fired then it is 100% a good thing.

[ed: the lack of async probably means little for how good flask is for a new project - it's a great little framework].

Yes, demand for all kinds of storage will grow exponentially as renewable generating capacity approaches saturation: meaning you generate, in aggregate, as many joules in an average day as will be consumed in that day.

During WWI [0], and even WWII plenty of countries would openly run propaganda ministries distributing government news.

Which most people considered legitimate news, as new information from afar was not very easy to come by back then.

After WWII a lot of Nazi crimes were blamed on the efficiency of "Goebbels propaganda", so the term became stigmatized. Which put people like Edward Bernays [1], who had been working in the propaganda business for decades and literally wrote the book on it, in a bit of pickle.

So he came up with the rebranding of "Public Relations", which is basically privatized propaganda. Turning it from something strictly governments do, to a service that can be bought by anyone with enough money.

Any chemistry still being considered can operate at your "grid scale". If you need more storage, you buy more battery. Pumped hydro dominates mainly because the dams and turbines were already there.

So "can it operate at grid scale?" is a bullshit question. All storage alternatives can operate at grid scale by adding more units. What matters is cost, and costs are changing.

Even Energy Vault's fraudulent hi-rise condo for concrete blocks could scale up, in principle. It would just be stupidly expensive, and its cost cannot come down noticeably, so they won't sell any condos. People holding NRGV shares will lose badly, and people with call options on it, much worse. You might make a lot of money betting it will collapse, but they could in the meantime swap equity for something that works, and then not ruin that. Unlikely, though: who would be smart enough to have something that works, but dumb enough to swap?

Some technologies and battery chemistries will win big, reliably. We just don't know which ones.

Part of the reason for this is that environmentalists optimize for the most visible (annoying) measures, not the most effective one. That goes so far as to ask people to sort recycling from trash 'to raise awareness' even when it all gets mixed together anyways.

Straws and plastic bags in developed countries with working waste disposal systems are another example. Each time someone pulls a half-dissolved paper straw out of their drink, you've just made a person that is less willing to support environmental measures.
> At 36, I am just old enough to remember when sunscreen wasn’t a big deal. My mom, despite being among the palest people alive, does not remember bringing it on our earliest vacations, or hearing any mention of sun protection by our pediatrician.

> Now SPF is ubiquitous. You can find it in lotions, sprays, gels, oils, powders, and implements that look like grade-school glue sticks, as well as infused into skin-care products, lip balms, makeup, and clothing. Sun care has its own aisle at big-box stores, and beauty companies worth hundreds of millions of dollars have been built from the ground up by offering only products that block ultraviolet rays.

So we went from little to no sunscreen to ubiquity over a few decades, but over that time rates of skin cancer have increased per 100k.

I need not reply to generalizations and libel about my character.

> Further, the First Amendment - particularly the Free Exercise and Establishment clauses - perfectly counters your notion of Christianity being embedded into this nation's founding.

No, it doesn't. It clearly enunciates an individual's right to choose. The ability to choose is, in itself, a Christian idea. According to the Bible, faith in God is not coerced, rather it is a choice to be freely made by everyone. Christ Himself said He came to help those who need Him, literally "When Jesus heard this, he told them, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do. I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.""

> If your intent is to ever convince someone with whom you disagree, I also recommend more consistent scholarship.

You provided the article as some kind of proof. There are glaring problems with that article.

> This world has no place for fascists, period. Good luck with things.

I argue for self-sovereignty in the form of the first and second amendments. First the rights to free speech, practice of religion, association; and second, the right to protect yourself if someone comes for you or your loved ones.

I want you to have your speech, your religion, and your guns. To speak your mind freely, and to be able to protect yourself and the ones you love when the real fascists come for you. I swore an oath to protect the Constitution and the citizens of this country. I will stand by that til I die.

How is that fascism? I'm deeply confused now.

As for misquoting the article:

> The facts of our history are easy enough to verify. Anybody who ignorantly insists that our nation is founded on Christian ideals need only look at the four most important documents from our early history -- the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, the Federalist Papers and the Constitution -- to disprove that ridiculous religious bias. All four documents unambiguously prove our secular origins.

Emphasis mine.

In the very next section on the Declaration of Independence the article clearly states:

> Only four times is there any reference at all to higher powers -- "Laws of Nature and of Nature's God," "Supreme Judge of the world," "their Creator," and "divine Providence" -- and in all four cases the references to a higher power appeal to the idea of inherent human dignity, never implying a role for a god in government.

Now, the Declaration of Independence is not a long document. About 1300 words. For the clarion cry of freedom to appeal the Almighty four times in 1300 words -- over half of which is an enumeration of crimes against human decency -- appears to be (to me at least) to be a lot. A lot more than I would expect an atheistic, godless group of men to do.

All that to say, I didn't misquote the article. Perhaps I paraphrased poorly? My claim that the author is inconsistent stands.
