How do I get my rush of validation now?! 😄

I have taken the Twitter bot offline

Good results so far.. some server admins told us to fuck off and wouldn't even listen. But quite a few so far have told me we are now removed from the block list. Several others are reviewing our timeline and will make a decision.

I expect many instances wont listen since they never bothered to fact check the accusations in the first place. But the fact that in less than an hour many have already agreed to unblock us is enough for me to consider this a successful interaction.

One of the worrying issues when validating code, scientific code in particular, is the use of undocumented numeric literals, more popularly known as Magic Numbers. The lack of documentation complicates the V&V process; sometimes the meaning of a number is obvious from context but often it's not. What should be an exercise checking that a value is appropriate turns into a search for what that value represents.

"Scientology and the Aftermath" helped to expose #Scientology for what it is. It would be nice to have a series do the same for the evangelical fundamentalist Christianity that thrives at mega-churches throughout the U.S. Sort of like a Jesus Camp series that sticks the horror in viewers' faces until they decide that it is no longer acceptable. #christian #ChristianNationalism #television

Have you experienced burnout?
