It’s weird that someone could be successful in politics based on such a stance.

Literally nothing about governance of state in there, just a single strand of social opinion.

It’s like winning a captaincy in Grade 7 because you said the teachers smell, but like, this is adults and it’s been working.

It’s easier to use their names

Deci = 1/10th
Centi = 100th
Milli = 1000th
Micro = 1,000,000th
Nano = 1,000,000,000th

Deca = ×10
Hector = ×100
Kilo = ×1,000
Mega - ×1,000,000
Giga = × 1,000,000,000
Tera = × 1,000,000,000,000,000

Etc prefixing the thing being measured.

So you know what a centimetre, gigabyte, megaton, kiljoule, etc. are.

Other easy conversions too, like 1kg = 1L of water.

And it’s metre. Because a meter is a measuring device and all this shit is Latin (metrum) like proper science stuff be. Americans don’t even use it, so they can fuck off with their misspelling.

And that’s it. You now know the metric system. You probably now realise you’ve been using it all along for many things.

Got a 9070 in August. It’s already gone up 72%.

No matter how hard things get, they’re actually easy and in no way threaten the ability to survive. The hardest thing in your life is just the current record for how good you are at getting through things. Life’s challenges are opportunities to exercise your resilience. Bad times are something to look forward to because you get to see what’s achievable when you operate at 100%.

Can’t wait

So, basically, it’s a flying “shoot here” banner for high value targets. If a target doesn’t have one, it’s probably not worth anything.

I’m no longer a Christian, and I don’t think any of it is fact. But I was one for 22 years and went to Bible college before seeing the light and studying anthropology. What a text says and whether it’s true are two different things, and you’re making a claim about what’s in that text that just isn’t true. You’re right that the overarching theme was defiance, but not anything else.

Your “refusal to bow to mankind” is only found in later non-canonical texts after the Bible. It’s why it is canon in one Abrahamic text…the Qur’an. Not the NKJV, and obv not any translation of the Christian Bible. I.e. not in the teachings or literature of Christianity, nor your NKJV.

The story never mentions humanity, not even where the NT brings it up. The Torah covers creation and the Fall, so the Bible gets all that from there and so there’s no Lucifer story in it. The Torah doesn’t say the serpent was Satan at all, so neither does Genesis. In the Bible, only until Isaiah is the Lucifer story established, which doesn’t mention what you said at all and that’s the core for that tale in that literature. The only place Satan actually gets pinned to the serpent in Genesis is Revelation, and even there, nothing about refusing to bow to humans.

You may have been preached some individual’s interpretation of the Bible, including their reading of texts written after the Bible (like, 100-700years after), but if you read it, you’d read what I’m saying and not find mention of what you’re saying.

Your narrative doesn’t exist in any Bible. This isn’t a difference of opinion, denominations, versions, whatever. This is something you can Google right now if you can’t be bothered reading your NKJV.

No it does not.

The version of bible does not change canon, just the language/interpretation of language.

The narrative you mention does not exist canonically in any Bible.

Probably. It’s a US company so it’ll always fail with minimal consequences, as compared to a state service or country with regulation.

It’s a case of when and how often.

That’s not how the story goes at all.

He didn’t defy God; he wanted to be God.

Mankind wasn’t a factor, it didn’t even exist.

You’d have better luck spinning a story about a bad breakup and we’re a puppy someone got out of impulse, thinking it’d fill the lonely void.

That’s what Apple does. I think the funniest was Apple Pay. Like almost 4 years late to the game. They’re not an innovation company anymore like back in the glory days.

Yes.

You’d be naive of history to say otherwise.

Marx formalised an industrial era ideology from many existing concepts, evolving it further politically and economically to reapply those concepts to, what were then, modern times with rapidly expanding globalisation.

He was no Jesus, but he did preach the gospel.

We’re like 10+ years past the point where new smartphone features were worth something. Now we’re back to buying new phones because the last one finally died, not to upgrade.

Yeah, we’re gonna need some facts for those capitalist claims, bud.

If it were a long-term medical solution

It’s his examples that I’m going off. But maybe he doesn’t know what he’s talking about and an IBM engineer is losing their shit at upper management right now. I used to work for them a long time ago under Virginia and that was standard… Though, so has been every other place since.

I give IBM credit because so many of the people there are ridiculously smart. Not their business people.

“It’s a simple question for any enterprise. Would you like something that’s 10 percent of the cost if it’s 90 percent as good as the best, or do you want to pay that 10 times higher cost?”

That really depends…

90% is disasterous. It may sound good because it’s “just” 10% off 100%, but it’s awful. Two iterations reduces that to ~0.01%< but that’s still pretty bad. Obviously the more complex, the higher the risk and the more demand and time per iteration. The machine also has no concept of criticality, so how much is being saved with three or even four iterations to assure failure is basically zero?

“Then the question is: how many tasks require that? I would tell you some do, but the vast majority, summarizing an email, examining a contract, answering a customer call, composing an email, all of those can be done as well with the much cheaper answer.”

Imagine 10,000 emails an hour through your enterprise and 1,000 times It fucks up. Anything from missing info to misinterpreting to just straight up modifying/deleting. No concept of criticality per email. 8,000 in a 9–5 office. 24,000 a day for a global enterprise. That’s what 90% looks like.

Then you got “examining contracts” and all the other stuff he mentioned…

I am not clicking that link lol

It’s now technically Tuesday somewhere, if that helps…
