@GregMolnar Finally!!

@RevZekveld I was just talking about this last night with my wife, regarding infant baptism and the nature of the new covenant, that when scripture says something that goes against a system, it's the system that must change to fit scripture, not scripture to fit the system.

The doctrines of grace, the doctrine of election and predestination, were never originally intended to be some sort of rationalistic system. It was intended to be descriptive of the Biblical evidence and a reminder that God is God and we are not. With rationalism, these doctrines have been divorced from the rest of Biblical theology. This is why the Reformed Baptist rejects infant baptism because he clings to a system rather than knowing these doctrines in connection to a system of Gods generational dealings with men. This is why the hyper Calvinist won’t come to the Lords Table because he doubts his salvation. He doesn’t have the humility to recognize that if God has saved him, all he can do is give thanks and walk in obedience and love to God. When I read the Canons of Dort I don’t see a system of rationalistic thought, but a system that makes an attempt at systematizing Biblical teachings. But ultimately, it’s not that I have figured out God and His ways. I have instead been brought into deeper mystery and communion with a God who I cannot fully understand, but who loves me and shows His love to me in Jesus Christ. I can know Him because of Jesus Christ.

@morriceGavin @ChShersh Which eventually leads back to step 1... because some of their questions are super deep and I need the answer!

@ChShersh 95% of being a parent is simply being asked “why?”.

95% of being smart is simply asking "Why?"

@JackEllis @calebporzio Definitely B

@calebporzio I preferred B on gut feeling. But I also like alignment. Good luck deciding :P

Supporting option groups in flux. Which style? A or B?

@gat0rtheskater The second commandment of SaaS: treat your customers like you'd want to be treated.

If your business depends on you lying and cheating your customers you don't have a business It's why I unfortunately don't buy from new age kids Too many of them are chasing shortcuts and selling snakeoil

@jacob_luetzow Killswitch is something I'd sign up for (I love a good name), but I wouldn't want a company called Killswitch to reach out to my family upon my death. So maybe the outreach/fulfillment portion could just be under a different brand, e.g. Kin (a Killswitch company)?

We help people pass documents to loved ones automatically. Some say "Killswitch" sounds too intense for that. Considering renaming to Kinswitch ("kin" = the family it delivers to). Thoughts?

@BenjDicken I've only ever done this to myself via a self-teardown. I'd feel so bad.

"dropped a few comments on your pr"

It's about competence. Always has been.

@aarondfrancis Immediately kill the session

Sure man, what the hell

@jessethanley @BenjaminHouy The depths people will go to avoid doing business😭

@BenjaminHouy Everyone I know who has done this is unhappy.

Me: I need to focus on what’s important for customers. Also me: I wonder if I should move Copycat Cafe from Rails to Elixir.

@GregMolnar I knew it x.com/_m27e/status/2…

Old docker containers are the culprit.

@GregMolnar I bet it's all Docker

I almost run out of space on a 1TB drive and it turns out I have plenty of garbage for some reason.

I'm also bad at multi-tasking, and I avoid interruptions too (to the extent that I even avoid having a normal lunch most days because the looming schedule hurts my ability to focus). But do 9am-5pm, hard cutoff. I'm able to see (lead) my kids more, have dinner with my family, and my wife is happier. No parent should have to raise children alone. Nothing at work is that important.

This is getting a lot of hate but is really not that different than folks who go to work 9am-7pm. Some people (like me) are really bad at multi tasking and interruptions cost a lot of cognitive load when working on creative tasks or learning new skills. If you choose to be ambitious your partner will have to raise your children mostly alone.

@jessethanley @samlambert

@_m27e @samlambert Do you think there’s anyone losing sleep over your Heroku Postgres node? 😭

@samlambert High cortisol.

@gat0rtheskater I swear if somebody's sending me more than a couple sentences I could care less what they're saying. They have not earned my time yet.

i only respond to paragraphs from my lawyer or accountant think about that and adjust your cold outreach strategy accordingly

@jessethanley @samlambert Stop being mean to @samlambert, let the man sleep

@_m27e @samlambert I’m okay with everyone at Planetscale stressing out tho
