You don't like the glory of https://github.com/erroneousbo... ? You don't need to leave your terminal... Really, I'm not sure why this complain. Slack has an API and I wrote some scripts that can post to our slack channels (or users) for the status of our grid environment or job completions...

You have issues with the old testament my friend. Most of these texts were directed at Jews, not at others. For the texts that talk about other people, it was mostly because their action were horrible (even by today's standard). Still, You seem to not understand the new testament either. Romans doesn't ask Christian to kill homosexuals. It says that this practice is sinful and that they already got the judgment in their flesh... 2 John 6 has: And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love. Even if you need to reprimand someone, you're supposed to do it with love....

1- Ten commandments != Christianity. They don't even equal to Judaism. 2- Faith leads to action. You can't pretend to have faith if you do don't have the corresponding behavior. Actually, you can't even pretend to have faith if your life doesn't show fruits that should come along with it. OTOH, even if you have the right behavior and your life shows what would be the fruits that come with faith, you can't claim you're a Christian if you don't have the faith too...

you're kidding, right? Please say "yes" so that I can keep faith in humanity...

how many people thinks that they are helping a poor guy in Congo getting his heritage money safe by giving them their bank account numbers? How many people agree to "share" a video link on facebook to be able to see a stupid video of a girl having an orgasm while doing the SlingShot and are not realizing that they are giving access to their data to whoever put that online?

Most people don't understand how to protect their privacy and they don't even know how important that is until they are actually caught in some sort of financial fraud. Recently, a lady got some jail because the first thing she did after hitting another car, she wrote that on facebook instead of getting out of her can to see if the other driver was severely injured (he was). The "timestamps" of the facebook's posts were used as proofs. Now I'm actually happy that it went that way, but most people who read that article went: oh! I didn't realized it could go that far!

People are ignorant. I'm not saying this in a condescending way, I'm myself ignorant on many many topics. Being ignorant isn't a problem in itself (although it is a limitation). The real problem is that "pride" chimes in when you're trying to educate someone and they don't listen because they don't want to admit their ignorance.

What? No way. Ever heard of "UserAgent"-based content generation? Or even simpler, a servlet? If you can't guaranty that a URI points to one specific immutable version of a document this requirement isn't met. History can easily be "reviewed" on the web right now: you could change a sentence in one of your blog story and no one could prove that you wrote something else before.

This is one big issue to solve before we can really "trust" the web. I mean, you can trust a publisher or an author, but the medium can't be trusted right now. Compare with a physical book that you can't alter (unless you chase & alter/destroy all copies) and you see right away the big difference.

Wow, how self-fulfilling is that? Ever saw a paleontologist "prove" that a dinosaur really looked "like that"? Or a biologist crafted a living self-reproducing cell from random events (a living cell, not just some alpha acid base)? No? Science must be junk then...

What's really bad is that people who try to translate Science in "layman terms" often do as bad as pseudo-Christian "elite" who try do to the same: they give you faith in the wrong things.

Speaking of "delivering" and "repeatability": Christianity is actually pretty good with that: apply the principle of the Bible and you'll be getting the fruits proposed (and I'm talking about the ones you can actually "verify" in this world, not the ones we can "materialize" right now). "Trust" is built between on and the principles in the Bible in the same way we are building our trust toward Science: because we saw the expected results for a given set of actions.

There's abuse everywhere. When a "scientific" abuse and quit the "right path" of "scientific methodology", we end up with cosmetics products that will make you young forever, cold fusion working perfectly or perpetual motion. We also have sad stories like Denton who got "slapped" when he wrote a book about serious problems in the Theory of Evolution (his area of expertise btw, and no, he isn't a creationist).

For sure, Christianity talks about things that can't be verify in our material world (like the after life for example). On the other hand, it talks about a lot of things that can actually be measured in this world too (ok, maybe not with a voltmeter, but anyway).

I'll definitely try that! I'm a very very happy customer of axess.com. No bandwidth cap, not usage cap & no ports blocked. They even help me setup my home linux router off an old pentium mmx I had 10 years ago!. Some months, I've been downloading > 70GB of linux distro iso & vmware appliances. I even got to 120GB: they never complained. for 30$/month (tx included) that's a pretty good service!
