There is indeed great scholarship here with major contributions from Jason BeDuhn, Matthias Klinghardt, and Dieter Roth in addition to Vinzent, Bilby, and Bull who you mentioned. I'm really excited by this research and did a deep dive reading Tertullian's Against Marcion and the idea that anyone could possibly take the arguments set forth there over the more modern critical approaches is mind boggling. I can't imagine anyone arguing for Lukan-Priority based on these patristic sources has ever read them as the argumentation is specious at best.

This is not at all the consensus of scholars working at public secular institutions not affiliated with religious institutions of higher learning. A late dating of the formation of the canon is just as viable if not more so among this academic community.

Seconded. Great scholarship is represented on this channel.

The absence of recent work on reconstructing and contextualizing Marcion’s Evangelion and Apostolikon is disappointing, particularly given the implications for understanding early Christian texts and the development of the synoptic gospels. The pre-Lukan theory, which suggests Marcion’s gospel may represent a version of Luke predating the canonical text, challenges traditional views on the formation of the gospel narrative. This theory raises important questions about the so-called “Q” source, a hypothetical collection of Jesus’ sayings used by Matthew and Luke.

Either the classic "A Mind Forever Voyaging" or the Lovecraftian "Anchorhead"

If you want to live these games vicariously I can also recommend the Eaten by a Grue podcast over at https://monsterfeet.com/grue/

The solution to this, at least in the case of Tor, is for existing sites (e.g., Wordpress, medium, etc…) to provide one-click onion-site publishing support.

They overthrew the democratically elected PM in favour of the autocratic Shah and both the West and Iran are still paying the price. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27%C3%A9...

I wonder if it would make sense to house these reactors in underground facilities to the extent possible to harden them against at least accidental threats?

Miguel de Icaza's [Swift Godot](https://github.com/migueldeicaza/SwiftGodot) effort is also very active and worth tracking I think.

I think free will is a bit like a sphere. There is no true sphere in nature, only a more or less accurate approximation. Likewise for free will, there is no such thing as true free will (tm) but there are better and worse approximations.

I screwed up the server link so either use the correct link here :

I don't want to post again in rapid fire succession so I'll create a new post tomorrow with the correct link.

Darn. This must be the one : https://discord.gg/v59gYHXH

For anyone reading this just now at 13:04UTC or thereabouts the monthly Ada meetup is also happening as I write this. https://meet.jit.si/AdaMonthlyMeetup

In addition to the Matrix, Telegram, and Libera IRC chat channels, the Ada community has spawned yet another way to collaborate and connect. While I'm at it, I guess I should mention the ada-lang.io forums as well.

How does Versus compare to SPARK? Are they of the same general class of verifier? How is Versus different other than a verifier for Rust rather than a verifier for Ada?

What if we go further out on the carbon limb since this or a similar technology allows us to further delay implementing carbon reductions and then, for some reason, our civilization fails and we can no longer continue to dope the atmosphere to protect us from the now even more serious consequences of our emissions? This approach strikes me as madness; like the behavior of a junkie who takes uppers to wake up in the morning because they've become addicted to downers to get to sleep.

Love this! I purchased both the iOS and Steam version. Completely happy to support indie game devs willing to open source their software.

I use LogSeq with the TODO plugin giving me a sidebar view of outstanding TODOs. It would be wonderful to have a similar plugin for LogSeq but of course the onus is on me to make that happen. If someone were working on such an integration I would gladly support it via Patreon or open collective, etc…

This looks like more fun than sudoku or crossword puzzles.

Has anyone updated the book to allow one work with newer FPGA boards?

Is it possible to use this version of the book to follow along and build everything without having to source the original FPGA board Wirth was using?

Is there an effort to provide formal verification features for a safe subset of the D language similar to ADA’s SPARK and related tooling?

Which IDE best supports D? I’m a fan of JetBrains products in general but would happily install something else for better ergonomics.

I love micro and use it every day. Now that I've tried Helix, however, I want micro plus baked-in treesitter, LSP, and contextual help. Helix really nails it with that feature set but I'm just too happy with my "single-mode + commands" ctrl-c/ctrl-v muscle memory to switch.

Definitely this. I'm super happy for anyone finding some new level of productivity with vim, emacs, kakoune, etc. but I don't want to join an editor cult, not even a CUA one. I just want to edit text from the command line using a familiar set of keystrokes and move on with my life and micro fits the bill.

As exciting as it is to see Go 1.20.1 support land in OpenBSD 7.3 it is sad to see support for the delve debugger languishing. If you're a Golang dev with good knowledge of both Go internals and BSD architectures you might want to have a look!

Oddly enough I just started down the same path learning Ada by following Crafting Interpreters in both Java and Ada. If you decide to write anything up about your journey I'll look forward to reading it.

Build with stone blocks. Even if it gets knocked over the blocks just need to be reassembled to be useful whether as a wall, a tower, a road, or another house.

Anyone interested in this kind of stuff (i.e., the Western Esoteric Tradition) would enjoy The Secret History of Western Esotericism podcast. Lots of great scholars and scholarship on this understudied aspect of Western civ. https://shwep.net/

In my view, both nihilism and foolish optimism seem to be coping mechanisms. Very few can really look this issue dead in the eye and still live a joyful, productive life. It’s a serious, pressing issue at a scale that is hard to imagine.
