OCIA (formerly RCIA) is the process for becoming Catholic through classes, formation, and sacraments. Contact your local Catholic church.
Just 2 books to bring with you on this journey--
1. The Ascension Edition of the Catechism
2. St. Ignatius Catholic Study Bible
@elonmusk@billmaher Visited the Bill Clinton Library while I was in town-- no other reason. It's just a place to hear how successful and impactful the president was from their perspective. The most interesting part was the Oval Office replica, since I doubt I'll ever visit the real White House.
Few fundamentals may have been forgotten.
Speed: No one brags about being slow. Slow AI responses, slow app load times make people leave for where it is faster.
Simplicity: Minimal controls in normal mode; advanced mode offered.
QA: Bugs persist and new ones introduced.
@ID_AA_Carmack I'm not sure how much truth there is to it, but there seem to be a few camps as to why they're considered horrible:

@tmrrah9 It's strange to me-- if Iran normalized relations with the U.S. and other nations, reduced tensions, and embraced serious economic reforms, it could become far more prosperous within a decade and emerge as a major regional technology / industrial hub, and a tourist destination.
With instability in the Middle East, another energy crisis WILL happen.
Energy security is economic security. America needs abundant, affordable, reliable energy made at home, backed by strong reserves & a modern grid. @WhiteHouse@realDonaldTrump@JDVance@PressSec@SecRubio
I've been getting the itch to take a few days of PTO, set up my own local AI environment for fun, and start building something vision-related that I think could be cool.
