He's genuinely funny, very competent musically, respects the artists he parodies and has always worked hard. But his real genius that shines above all is his lyrics. He's an outstanding lyricist, perhaps the finest of the last fif

"Many of the gnostic gospels were pretty clearly written earlier" Says you. The textual evidence says otherwise. The gospel of Judas for example has a sole surviving copy dated ~300AD. Irenaeus mentions it around 180AD as being th

About the best you can hope for when reading Elaine Pagels is getting her opinion on what Gnostic authors may have thought of Paul's letters. She makes the same mistake as the author of this article makes: that Christianity just starte

I was going to recommend this book but you beat me to it. Christians were much longer lived because of their social practices more than anything else.

I shall be moving my codebase to Go this year. I'm very impressed at how readable it is, how much thought has gone in to the tooling and support environment and how fast the GC is now. I also must be one of the few people who likes the

Yep. I'm downvoted because anything even remotely right is on here.

This is entirely intentional. The God Emperor is overwhelming you with shock and awe to make opposition seem pointless, which it is of course.

Thank you. I thought it sounded familiar.

The principles The Grugq outlines here are explained in lots more detail in his OpSec for Hackers presentation. It includes a detailed analysis of how Lulzsec violated these principles which is why they were caught: http://www.sl

"While every government has their own immigration controls, allowing people from all around the world to come here and make America their home has largely been the U.S.’s policy since its founding." Nonsense.

I don't believe you can - it's all soldered on. Like the new Macbook Pros, it's designed to be impossible to upgrade.

There's another factor here that hasn't been mentioned: Switzerland is only a couple of hundred kilometres across. That makes a difference when it comes to public transport and other infrastructure like broadband. I laugh when I s

Oh you want to go with popular votes? Then Bernie Sanders should have been your candidate by a big margin but was prevented by the DNC's superdelegate system.

"Nicotine harms everyone. Net harm to a schizophrenic may be negative, but they are still harmed." This is also true of chemotherapy and many of the tricyclics.

I like this clarity. But I think to make it work you need the best people at the boundaries of the divisions. Between customer support and product development must sit someone, or a team, with experience of both. Between the internal compan

I was horribly unimpressed with the CGI versions of both Tarkin and Leia. I've seen video games that do better. And then it hit me a few days later: modern CGI is perfectly capable of rendering a very realistic person but the teams are

It was deadly serious. But the evidence is purely circumstantial. However, the more you dig the more data you find. From another comment of mine: James Alefantis posts suggestive pictures of children on his Instagram AND He makes lewd comme
