Elohim derives from El, the chief god in the Canaanite pantheon, and the father of other gods (such as Baal and Yahweh). El also appeared in the religions of many neighboring societies in the near east.

In Canaanite societies and in Hebrew, the name El became genericised, so the name could be used as a title for any god or for god powers in general.

God is multitudinous and thus worthy of the title, but also one single god dont you dare worship any other

In terms of the Hebrew Bible, it’s more like different parts were written by different people at different times, with various views on polytheism, henotheism, and monotheism. Elohim is grammatically plural, and in some places it is used as a plural to refer to multiple deities. In other places it agrees with singular forms, similar to “royal we”, or it becomes an abstract term for divinity as a concept.

This is true for people who hold security clearances and who have signed NDAs.

This is definitely not true for journalists. There is a first amendment right to publish classified stuff if you get your hands on it. See the Pentagon Papers.

For normies who don’t have the backing of the New York Times, there’s a bit of a grey area, because the Espionage Act is still on the books, probably unconstitutional, and never really been seriously tested. See Julian Assange, where he ultimately pled guilty to an Espionage Act charge without challenging the law itself.

As far as I know, the MAX software fully complied with its software requirements. The problem was crappy system requirements, and Boeing actively lied to their pilots to conceal that they added a brand new automatic flight control system that can push the elevators down independent of the autopilot and stick pusher.

That last part is what sent people to jail.

Sounds good to me. Just like Sun Java and their “not to be used to operate a nuclear facility” clause.

Both git and svn started around the same time, in or about 2004.

I’m not sure the US military is all the way done repainting into woodland green, after all their adventures in the sandbox.

The two words by themselves are not very good English, or any slang idiom I know about.

I agree this sounds threatening, however.

If only I could just turn off the chromatic aberration in my eyeglasses.

With all of those, money is moving from the rich person to pilots, crew, maintenance staff, laborers, builders.

Gulfstream is an excellent example of this in action. Gulfstream jets can double the price over comparable products from brands like Bombardier or Cessna. And all of the crew, maintenance, training, and other operating costs can easily double as well. And, IMHO at least, there’s nothing about the Gulfstream aircraft that justifies this extravagant expense. As far as I can tell, the Gulfstream name is a machine that transfers money from unsuspecting and vain rich people straight to Gulfstream and a few aerospace workers.

This guy Enterprises.

I bet they had crappy throws or no throws, too.

For those who may be from the Frozen Nawth, Mardi Gras parades, particularly in New Orleans, are all about the free giveaways.

Even if you never plan to return, you are still (legally) on the hook to file a 1040-NR form with the IRS every year.

There’s a foreign earned income tax credit: this reduces your US tax bill by any income tax you paid to your residence country. For many expat working stiffs, this means they don’t have to pay anything to Uncle Sam, but they still have to file a tax return.

I went and read the hexbear thread on this. Here’s some summary from over there:

• Current hexbear admins lost the domain because the registration was controlled by a single inactive / flaky admin.
• hexbear admin stated an intention to bid in this auction to get their name back.
• chapo.chat is a temporary domain solution only.
• they are also deciding on backup names if they don’t win the auction

Medical device programmers:

Air is a compressible fluid. Water is incompressible. Energy from shock waves will be transmitted from the hull to the crew in a much more efficient fashion.
