@lednabm@c.im @mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io Nobody would ever accuse me of being religious or pro-religion, but "Christianity is evil" is akin to "No True Scotsman". Christian is as Christian does, is more like it. It's human, and runs the gamut. Do I think religious dogma is harmful? Yes. At scale, it is harmful. But does that make it evil? I'm not sure that (a) a collective behavior can be evil... it's more like a storm or earthquake, to me; and (b) "evil" exists.Honestly, I think Hobbes' Leviathan was right... we live in a state of existential anarchy, and we build various forms of social order within that, as a way of limiting the chaos and uncertainty that anarchy permits.

@Fayedray@mastodon.social @mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io @lednabm@c.im And black Christians? Are they also evil?It's No True Scotsman fallacy... There are no "good" Christians or "bad" Christians. No "real" Christians. No "fake" ones. It's all fake, subjective human belief in magic man walking on water

@rek2@hispagatos.space It hasn't helped that Hollywood appears incapable of depicting realistic "cyber" anything. From War Games to every single police procedural.There has been one notable exception in the decades since computers starting becoming plot devices.ONE.Mr. Robot.That's it. That's the only semi-plausible "cyber" anything that has ever been made.

@anders@thoresson.social Well, since JSON is schema-less ... probably import json and your brain. That said, you could write a script that will recursively process a JSON object and spit out keys and types... JSON doesn't have many types, so should be pretty straight-forward...if isinstance(value, list): print(f"{key}: Array")

@anders@thoresson.social There probably is... yeah. There's a tool for every little thing! Finding them sometimes takes longer than doing it oneself, tho.I hate to say it, but that's just the sort of thing ChatGPT is actually good at LOL

@exception@mastodon.savvy.ch @cstross@wandering.shop I'm confused... as a published writer and artist, copyright protects me. Why would artists bother to work if any schmuck could steal our work and claim it as their own?

@KevinCarson1@kolektiva.social @cstross@wandering.shop @pleaseclap@urbanists.social @exception@mastodon.savvy.ch It's not about the money! It's about the CREDIT.It's MY art, or MY novel, because I MADE it. That's what copyright protects. If you want the right to copy MY art, you must deal with ME. And the answer is, "No, you may not copy my work."Maybe you're a publisher, and you offer me money to copy my work? Maybe I accept that money and allow you production rights to make, distribute, and sell copies of my work. But the copyright is still MINE, for the rest of my life unless I choose to transfer it to someone else. But that's MY choice, because it's MY art.

@pleaseclap@urbanists.social @KevinCarson1@kolektiva.social @cstross@wandering.shop @exception@mastodon.savvy.ch LOL no, it's my right as the creator of the art! I'm sorry to tell you, but I'm no communist. You can't have my work! This ain't rocket science! You commies are basically saying, "Nice art! We're taking it away from you for the good of the state." What even is the point of all this copyright hate? Why do you want to steal my work?

@pleaseclap@urbanists.social @KevinCarson1@kolektiva.social @cstross@wandering.shop @exception@mastodon.savvy.ch Nevermind. I'm just gonna block you since you're just doing the usual mindless "leftist" trolling. Not one of you commies will respond to even the most anodyne questions. You just spout bumper-sticker slogans then, when you encounter any pushback, you Gish Gallop.So... I'm done. I'll happily engage in discussion of the pros and cons of copyright with anyone who is actually willing to engage on the topic in an intelligent manner.You, clearly, are not one of them.
