Dear #ldsx,

Don’t worry so much about people saying you’re not Christian.

You are a member of His church. You belong to Him. You don’t need to belong anywhere else.

A sixteen dollar, billion mile long ship? They gonna dock the other end on Neptune?

[Collin Rugg @CollinRugg]

Plans released for a $16 billion mile-long ship capable of carrying 80,000 people.

The 'Freedom Ship' would be home to about 50,000 people, with space for 10,000 tourists and 20,000 crew members.

"The Freedom Ship is envisioned as a permanently mobile city at sea designed for long-term residence rather than short-term travel," the company says.

The ship would be about 8 times the size of the current largest ship in the world, the Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas.

The plans include a 15,000-seat stadium, schools, colleges, shops, clubs, a water park, a music hall, museums, parks, and more.

The ship, which would run on nuclear, would be too large to dock and would remain in international waters.

Freedom Cruise International says it would go around the world every two to three years.

Insane.

@Manhattva @Tweedy3420 He’s going to love it so much! I served in Catania 26 years ago. He is in for an incredible experience that will shape the rest of his life and beyond. Congratulations!

@ShaunMcKnight Beautiful! Mindy’s amazing. Did you get an end spot, navigating the pole? 😉

[Peter Ehat @ehat]

@fenshamc So kind of you to say these things. You are a true Christian—or truly Christlike—whichever you like! God bless you, friend!

[Christiaan Fensham @fenshamc]

This was my first General Conference since I realised 'Mormons' aren't 'a polygamous version of the Amish.' 😂

Late last year I casually wondered, 'What do the Mormons actually believe?' Months later, I'm reading the Book of Mormon daily and felt compelled to watch the General Conference.

Here's my biggest takeaway: If the people attacking the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints spent just two hours watching one session, I think their views would shift. How can you sit through that spirit, that sincerity, and still see these people as 'lost' or 'evil'? It's mind-boggling.

I'm also really grateful for all the LDS friends on X who, knowingly or not, helped me learn and understand more along the way.

Whatever path this takes, whether I eventually join or say, 'Fascinating, I respect it deeply, but I'll stay with my Dutch Reformed church', I'm profoundly grateful.

The Lord used simple curiosity to change my relationship with Him, how I see the world, and how I face adversity.

@Ch_JesusChrist Such a beautiful talk! Especially meaningful to me: “The love of God and our fellowman is the ultimate test of the condition of our spirit.” Thank you, Sister Yee!

@ShaunMcKnight ❤️ I’m sorry to hear. You’re a good brother and dad, Shaun.

6 Wild things Latter-day Saints believe about other Christians:

• They’re our brothers and sisters.
• We celebrate their faith in Jesus Christ.
• We’re grateful for all the good they do in the world.
• We love the service they provide in communities we share.
• We admire their devotion to family and fellowship.
• We’re glad to call them our neighbors and friends.

Software engineering jobs are dead. Long live software engineering jobs!

[Lukasz Olejnik @lukOlejnik]

Amazon is holding a mandatory meeting about AI breaking its systems. The official framing is "part of normal business." The briefing note describes a trend of incidents with "high blast radius" caused by "Gen-AI assisted changes" for which "best practices and safeguards are not yet fully established." Translation to human language: we gave AI to engineers and things keep breaking?
The response for now? Junior and mid-level engineers can no longer push AI-assisted code without a senior signing off. AWS spent 13 hours recovering after its own AI coding tool, asked to make some changes, decided instead to delete and recreate the environment (the software equivalent of fixing a leaky tap by knocking down the wall). Amazon called that an "extremely limited event" (the affected tool served customers in mainland China).

@ShaunMcKnight I hadn’t heard they got it approved!!! That’s fantastic! You must be excited!

The jobs apocalypse is the Population Bomb of our time.

Instead we're seeing more hiring in the job most affected by AI: programming. That should have been clear and obvious to anyone with basic economics understanding and good handle on the history of technology but it's sadly lacking today.

Fear sells. It drives clicks. It drive engagements.

The jobs apocalypse scenario comes from catastrophizing personalities and people who think of life as a zero sum game. It's the same mistake the communist theorists made. They thought jobs and labor were fixed and there's nothing new under the sun. If we take one job that job is lost forever and that person is now useless.

Wrong.

Instead, what happens is that when something gets faster and cheaper we want more of it.

Much more.

There is so much software that we could not build before because there weren't enough skilled people and not enough time and it wasn't worth the time or money.

Now it is worth it because it is faster and cheaper.

Cheaper for SaaS builders, cheaper for individuals, cheaper for enterprises, cheaper for everyone.

That's why were are seeing programmer jobs tick upwards.

Right now we are not seeing juniors get hired but that is also always the case in a recovery. We just saw mass layoffs because of overhiring during COVID and cheap money printing that made lending essentially free. The unskilled, aka junior workers, are always the last hired. You want skilled verterans who can take on the new technology with experience and take off running not someone you have to train and babysit when you have been stuck in third gear for a few years.

Job populists on the hard left like Sanders and many of his mirrors on the populist hard right are the enemies of actual working economies and must be resisted at all costs. They hurt the very people they hope to help by clinging to the past and thinking of life as a zero sum game.

This increase in jobs is the reality that will increasingly play out over the next few years if AI keeps getting better, barring some other economic shock that changes the game. It will increasingly play out even when we have "geniuses in a datacenter."

It will be a shock to some. Just not the jobs shock they were expecting.

Sorry to disappoint but we're not getting UBI any time soon while the robots do all the jobs and you sit on your ass.

Seems like we are all going to have to work a bit longer.

@ShaunMcKnight @AJ_Dybantsa Bro. How would it be?

"If I had ten more of me, I'd be able to scale this thing like crazy"

Sure, but you wouldn't work for you for what you're offering.

We’re cooked….

This aired tonight to 1 billion people in China. A year ago these robots could barely wave a handkerchief, now they can do backflips and kung fu with nunchucks. Physical intelligence is the next frontier.

[Peter Ehat @ehat]

This will be interesting to watch unfold.

Not SciFi anymore. @Doctronic is now the first AI in America (the world?) legally authorized to practice medicine.

We're live in Utah, renewing prescriptions with no doctor required.
