@IkonikLab @PageauJonathan Yeah, I listened to his full breakdown and agree with it.

Nolan’s The Odyssey Full Breakdown: The Post World War 2 Consensus Movie We Need (link below)

I offer a full symbolic breakdown of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, going through the entire film sequence by sequence., explaining why it's the movie we need right now.

[The Bible is Art @thebibleisart]

1 Corinthians 15 tells us Jesus will return creation to the Father.

2 Peter 3 says creation will be burned with fire.

Creation is a sacrifice that Jesus offers to the Father.

@MrMEESEEKSreal @Fr_RonPG @churchtalkative Where do you think you are heading when you carry your cross?

@Fr_RonPG @churchtalkative We all deserve the penalty for sin.

@Fr_RonPG @churchtalkative I don't get it.

THE ENGINE DIRECTOR BEHIND AAA CONSOLE GAMES WALKED ON STAGE AT A C++ CONFERENCE AND TOLD A ROOM OF EXPERTS THAT THE CLEAN, OBJECT ORIENTED CODE THEY ARE PROUD OF IS A LIE AND IT QUIETLY THROWS AWAY 90% OF THE MACHINE THEY PAID FOR

85 minutes from Mike Acton -- engine director at Insomniac Games, where wasting cycles is not an abstract debate, it is the difference between a game that ships and one that dies.

-> His first principle is blunt: the only purpose of any program is to transform data. Not to model the world in pretty classes. Move data, fast.

06:33 -- The lie he calls out: "Software is the platform". No. The hardware is the platform. Ignore it and you cannot even reason about the cost of your own code.

Most devs never look at what the CPU actually does. They stack abstractions until the machine spends its life waiting on memory it should never have touched.

49:38 -- He prints a value, zips it, and measures the waste directly. A brutal little trick that exposes how much of your data is pure noise.

And this is the AI era's blind spot too. Agents generate more abstract code faster, on hardware nobody profiles, while the GPU bill quietly explodes.

You thought clean code was the goal. This is the man shipping real engines saying the machine is the goal, and clean code is often how you lose it.

Bookmark it & you'll never look at your own abstractions the same ↓

Blizzard employee once told me anti-botting in WoW was extremely challenging due to the number of real people that acted identically to bots.

Every assumption was invalidated:
- unbelievable # of consecutive hours played
- consistently repetitive patterns of movement and clicks
- farming patterns that aren’t considered fun (“why would anyone do that”)
- solo, no external engagement
- goes on for months

The problem with botting is many humans ARE bots

@BarelyProt For me the spiritual reality of baptism and circumcision are so important that the physical should be de-emphasised. I don't want people thinking the physical saves.

P - If I am on the field and I commit a foul, I get sent off the field.

S - If a substitute can and will replace me, and I accept, then they get sent off.

A - If that is a valid/legal replacement, then I can stay on the field.

The Egyptian Football Association posted a video titled: “The Secret to Victory.”

They openly state that the key to victory is to begin the match by cursing Christians and Jews.

Before each match, the team gathers to recite Quranic passages calling Christians and Jews infidels under Allah’s wrath.

Coptic Christians make up 15% of Egypt’s population, but they are not allowed to be part of the national team.

For some reason, FIFA thinks this is ok.

@waitbutwhy I've always related that to envy. If everyone is poor, then there is less envy? Gini coefficient, equality of misery.

Scott Adams: "You can get 70% of people to change their mind just instantly if you say, 'This is what your team thinks.'"

Or, as I quoted @michaelmalice in "Demonetize Your Mind!":

"The average human doesn't run a true/false filter but an us/them filter."
