the recent amazon story where machine learning had simply done a good job of picking up on the existing biases of the company's hiring and employment practices.

That's exactly what machine learning ever does. It automates the biases present in the teaching data

looks like a daunting list but just quote from these as needed in your dealings with the community:

Do not bear false witness.
Honor all.
Be a help in times of trouble.
Console the sorrowing.
Do not give way to anger.
Do not nurse a grudge.
Do not swear, for fear of perjuring yourself.
Be not proud.
Be not lazy.
Be not a grumbler.
Speak no useless words or words that move to laughter.
Do not love quarreling.
Love your juniors.

You theoretically don't need to train it on your lovely actual hiring practices though.

or dont deal with a community that obligates christianity for participation

it really strikes me as a "oh man have you heard of all those dumb sjw codes of conduct other projects are implementing with things like 'don't be a gross weirdo' and 'have basic human decency?' man i bet we could totally own the libs by doing the same but in a way they hate!!!" thing rather than an earnest expression of christianity, but hey whatever

quote:

I didn't know who Dr. Richard Hipp was, but I heard of the SQLite. According to this article, it is the most deployed database system in the world. It powers your iPods, iPhones, and browsers like Firefox, and more. Dr. Richard Hipp is the man who created the SQLite and he gave it away to the public. That's very geeky coolness. And he is a Christian, and from what I read in the article, he is a real, God honouring Christian, not just a "pick-Christianity-as-my-religion-on-survey" kind of Christian. Here's how he answered the question: "Do you ascribe your talents and skills as God given or human made?"

quote:

Everything that I am is by Grace alone. The longer I live and the more I see, the more obvious this fact becomes. There have been many times in the past (and, no doubt, there will be more occasions in the future) where I have looked upon "my" accomplishments with pride, thinking that "I" have done well. Such thinking is utter foolishness. I would be less than nothing but for the unmerited favour of God.

Mayor London Breed and other prominent elected officials who have come out against Prop. C largely echo those criticisms. In a coordinated effort this month, Breed, state Sen. Scott Weiner and Assemblyman David Chiu released statements saying that while they support the measure’s goals, they would be voting no.

Breed said the “risk that concerns me the most” is the potential for companies impacted by the tax to move their operations and jobs elsewhere.

“We cannot afford to lose even more jobs for middle-class San Franciscans, the jobs in retail, manufacturing and services that are most likely to flee the city under Proposition C,” she said.

The businesses subject to the tax make up 15 to 20 percent of the city’s job base and already pay around 40 percent of its business taxes, according to a report on Prop. C from the city’s chief economist.



lol 20% of the jobs pay 40% of the taxes yeah that doesn't sound like rich people

i mean there's ancient scrolls in mediterranean caves and graffiti on the walls of pompeii showing that since time immemorial people have wailed and gnashed their teeth about how a tax raise is going to put them out of business and they can't possibly pay another cent
