Christians overwhelmingly elected Trump. Perhaps Christian != a follower of the teachings of Christ.

How is their argument silly? For many, God is an archetypical metaphor for a Daddy that must be feared and obeyed. Trump's election showed that a huge percentage of religious Americans have an authoritarian bent.

The "Jobs to be done" framework has clarified a lot of my thinking about marketing. The idea is that customers don't purchase products, they hire products to do a job for them. This is a good description and the first and o

The linked paper is specifically about using modeling to speed up runtime. Developer hours are typically more valuable than CPU hours so I think the paper is misguided in its approach.

The better you get at jiu jitsu, the less damage you'll need to do to control your opponent. Slaps can be effective to get them to open up for the submission - clean, no damage done, and they are forced to psychologically give up, whi

I will state clearly. If you train a martial art that doesn't involve live sparring, you are deluded about the efficacy of what you practice. I've been there. 20 years ago I had a black belt in karate, a brown belt in Japanese J

Arrogance? Or matter-of-factness from sparring and testing the skills on a daily basis? I can see how it's hard to tell the difference. Do you train?

This is why I still find jiu jitsu so beautiful - it requires a basic level of skill to beat someone's ass, but it's another thing entirely to control them so well that inflicting damage becomes optional.

I'm sorry, but you mispercieve. As you train the patterns and dance of MMA become clear even if they are inscrutable to the casual observer.
