There are a bunch of us who had a more GenX life than our birth year would suggest. The internet wasn’t a source of study and paper writing until college. We were allowed to stay home alone after school far younger than is legal today. In the summer we were kicked out of the house and roamind the town on your bike with no method of contact was normal.
If you saw kids in an 80s movie our lives matched that more than a 90s movie.
i think the big question is continuity of consciousness. when you sleep or especially when getting surgery and dont dream you just sort of accept that you now are the same you that existed before the disconnect. if when you went under and we tossed you into a teleporter would you know?
the one pictured could play mp3 cds, you could actually walk with it. i want the OG where even thinking of a bump would make it skip.
Why attack a nice state like michigan? it’s the pile of crap under the bridge no one cares about.
sadly if you study up on more than the passages taught on sunday, much of this destruction is in line with jesus and the rest of the bible.
the path up in many companies is an upside down pyramid of incompetance. you use to fail your way up but now it is about how much koolaid you drink.
java was my 5th language, having just missed it as the AP CS language in highschool by a year. oddly i could not get behind such a massive standard library having come from BASIC, Pascal C++, ASM, VHDL. now after 30 years of programing i write Java web services for a living. feels strange.
i’m not seeing a benefit over nano when it comes preinstalled on osx and most linux distros.
the intern in my story is not white.
we just picked up a new intern this month. they did ok in the interview but it was mostly that their dad works with us that they got a job this summer. this week while we were waiting for a meeting to start one of the other devs asked him about the tools he typicaly uses.
he started talking about these vibe coding IDEs and i had to look them up. WTF! but now it is all making sense. who goes to a 4 year uni getting a cs degree and can’t navigate a terminal? this is going to be a long summer.
this should be the default stance when using any built in encryption. always separate the mode of encryption from the mode of transmission.
tbf even the elite aren’t really elite
it amazes me when the elite think this moron will ever do anything for them unless the actual act is benefitting trump. you paid for a cheap dinner and to praise him. that’s it.
nah they just need to survive the storm for a yeas and a half and start funding dems house races. far cheaper than allowing you to repair your device.
they sent us a big box of CDs to the CS department an uni. ran it as a daily driver for a semester.
I’m saying that your timeline is wrong as you’re thinking temporally which is incorrect. Before Jephthah existed God knew he would make this bargan. God decided to render services and take payment. None of these things needed to happen but they did. So God takes human sacrifice as payment. Full Stop.
As for the rest of your comment, I find it funny that you were hung up on context when you’re showing you have no grasp of the historical context of this story. You ask why wouldn’t she run away. If you read the laws about slavery you’d understand that without being tied directly to her father or given to a husband she would be ripe for the picking into slavery. She has no rights as a single woman. Be she one of God’s chosen or one of the heathen around them, she would become someone’s property for life with no chance of being set free.
Further more your lack of historical context shows why you’re falling for such an obvious male author statement with her going off into the woods. She states she wants to morn the loss of her ability to get married. Marriage at that time was a financial contract between the father and the husband. Her value to the family is what they can sell her for. She was not mourning some true love she will never find. The claim is that she is sad she won’t be sold off to some man for a handful of goats.
And the heaven part, again missing context of what was believed at that time. Judges was prior to the Second Temple period so the afterlife concept was drastically different than the christian style heaven. Sheol was a place where good and evil alike went. This was no paradise, just a place where the souls go to rest.
So no, your idea that she’d just be cool with being exsanguinated and then go on for eternity in bliss is just flat out contextually wrong.
as a waiter in a past life this doesn’t really help a lot. i didn’t double check your order, you are potentially in the way. if you drop shit you are fucking up so much i’d be kicking your ass out that door and you are on the list.
You apparently don’t understand the Problem of Evil. I’m not asking why would he kill his daughter. I’m saying why did God accept human sacrifice as payment for beefing up his army? God knew payment would be given and then performed the task. God could have not beefed up the army. He could have not rendered services, and yet he did. He accepted human sacrifice as payment plain and simple.
An eternity of bliss? I think you mean spending all eternity remembering how she was brutally murdered. Will see see her dad there? Because that is some PTSD triggering shit waiting to happen. And being around God all the time knowing that your last moments on earth could have been totally different but God needed a good story for his book so she gets her throat cut all for her dad to gain more riches. That’s horrible.
No I’m not blaming God in those instances. I’m saying that God steps in and causes punishment TO THE OFFENDERS. And yet in the case of Jephthah no only is he not punished, God grants his wish and then doesn’t reject payment.
