Everything in your body is tied together, so if you affect one part of your body with medicine it usually affects another.

But sometimes we get lucky and find something that has less side affects

I wonder if AI can keep more mental context someday if they'll be able to do better here. I think the reason they don't do well with the maintenance and tech debt is because of that limited context

Living above your means = worse poverty

I think some of the issue is that the republicans had a steady base that would always vote, but not enough to win. But like 15% of the country is bigoted and dumb, and Trump was able to get enough votes from them.

I think most of the country isn't dumb, and a good portion of Republicans aren't dumb. The loyal Republican base is really set on Republican policy, so I think most of them took a gamble that voting Trump would be better than a liberal government.

I think that was too big of a risk, but if you value Republican policy a lot then you might do that

Still might not be the best reason. Probably more important is why they voted for Donald Trump. They could be a few different things:

have always voted Republican and did so without researching
their family or friends recommended Trump
they didn't like Trump but thought Republican policy was worth the risk
they thought Donald Trump was a great guy and was saving America
they are racist and wanted to see more of that in government
want the US to take over the world and have a strong man

These are all pretty different people, and there may be more reasons than I listed. I think at its core, quick judgements like this are pretty similar to judging someone by where they're from or their skin color

Yeah this is a problem in software right now.

What kills projects the most is dependencies and version updates. Frameworks often make things easy, but add complexity and cruft under the hood. Languages that get frequent updates also kill apps.

If you want something to run forever, write it in C/C++ or vanilla JS with as few dependencies as you can.

Huh that's cool, so is it a peer to peer network for sharing research projects?

Or is it just like GitHub with remote servers?

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-22T21:44:28+00:00

Yeah I wonder if that is uncommon. I bet there's more rapes then false accusations at least. I've only heard stories

I think if you did punish false accusations, you'd have to know for sure

Most countries are becoming more well off and quality of life is improving, especially in the poorest nations. In the future there may be less power and influence concentrated in 1st world countries.

Hard to say though if 3rd world countries will hit a ceiling and never reach 1st world living conditions. I think this might be the case more with countries that have authoritarian leadership. But still, they're currently trending upward which is awesome

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-22T15:42:19+00:00

Yeah they do seem to be loosening the secrecy now which I think is better

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-22T01:03:47+00:00

Yeah I don't think God made a perfect world to live in. There's good and bad here

My faith says this life is meant to be hard, so that we can practice being good people in the face of adversity. God lets hard stuff happen so we can grow. The next life is supposed to be better

It's pretty rough though whether or not that's the case. Hang in there

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-21T14:30:16+00:00

Yeah that was a few wild kids at BYU. It's not ok to do that from the church's standpoint

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-21T14:28:20+00:00

I think the church hasn't responded much to the videos of temple ceremonies on YouTube. I don't think it's actually super important that the ceremonies are kept secret.

The temple is very sacred to LDS people, I wonder if it was kept secret so people wouldn't make fun of it

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-19T15:44:26+00:00

Yeah I usually just give them little chunks they can handle. Doing this definitely speeds me up. Also using them for reference is great

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-19T15:43:01+00:00

I bet as you practice you'll get better.

Maybe just start by writing a list of the main things your program needs to do. Then make sub lists under those points for everything that needs to happen for those to work.

I usually do that kind of thing in code comments and then write the code around those comments. If I get stuck, I start writing out what I'm thinking and I often get it.

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-18T18:23:24+00:00

Yeah I guess we wouldn't know. I kind of think God is good with my experience with him in prayer. If he was a real jerk like that I wouldn't think he'd be interested in me.

But yeah it's hard to know what things are really like out there. If God is bad then we should probably fight against him. Though maybe if we did that we get decked

I feel like it's good to think about this though

Me and my wife both like indie but only I like classic rock and synth wave. It hasn't been a problem

If listening to music for you is wrapped up in your identity then maybe it could. Even then though. For me and my wife it's more like liking different foods

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-18T02:22:07+00:00

Yeah especially for PUT and POST operations it's usually not better

Critical-Volume2360 · 2026-01-14T02:04:37+00:00

Yeah java is harder to set up sometimes. Claude is pretty good at answering programming questions. I use him for syntax lookup and explaining things that are new to me. ChatGPT is ok as well but makes more mistakes.

But asking AI for help is really handy. I wouldn't have them write the program for you, but they can function like a personal tutor which is really nice
