Coding

Coding has proven essential to human survival and progress because it facilitates data processing, information sharing, and output collaboration. Coding is not only about digital information technology. Analog coding such as human languages preceded digital information technology. Improving your coding skills--analog and/or digital--should prove a rewarding investment move today and in the near future. Word to the wise: continuously improve your coding awareness, knowledge, and skills.

Three skills set humans apart from all other animals: imagination, communication, and collaboration. Imagination allows humans to project images about the world or the "objective" reality out there. Communication allows humans to share these images, or ideas about them, with other humans. Collaboration allows humans to work together towards the achievement of common goals. 

Presumably, most other animals also imagine, communicate, and collaborate. However, humans are better at it. The reasons are most likely that humans have a better adapted central processing unit (CPU) or brain, and humans better coding technologies (languages) to facilitate storytelling. 

Human languages (e.g. English, Latin, Chinese, etc) are forms of analog coding. Digital coding turns data into digits (ones and zeros) for processing by machines (computer processing). Analog coding turns data into sounds, symbols, or a combination of both for processing by human brains (cognition). Verbal or oral languages turn data into sounds, and sounds into images. Written languages turn symbols into images, or into sounds that are turned into images.  

Imagination allows humans to run images and create stories. Analog languages allow humans to share stories from one brain to another. A human cannot physically transmit an image from one brain to another, but by converting it into oral sounds or written symbols that other humans can either hear or read, the humans effectively transfer stories from one brain to another. 

Storytelling or idea sharing can bring humans together for collaboration and team work. Generally, collaborative team work exceeds the output of individual work both in quality and quantity thus helping humanity survive and thrive.

Christian Abortions

Christian women should vote for Democrats to protect the sacred right to medically sound and compassionately humane abortions in the United States. Guaranteeing access to proper abortions under adequate medical care is not only a human right, but also a Christian obligation. Christian entrepreneurs should also tap into the untouched business opportunity of promoting Christian abortions.  Slap is food for thought.

When that heavenly father sends one of his daughters a gift of life, daughters should feel loved and empowered to safely, kindly, and humanely return the gift to the father if desired. The heavenly father is not a monster or or sadistic deity.  The heavenly father will understand and appreciate the safe return of the unborn soul to heaven. The heavenly father will not want his daughter to suffer and will not want the soul to be in the wron...

Racism

Ending racism begins with realizing that we are all members of the same race, the human race. Racism is a socioeconomic system that assigns privilege based on the human concept of race. Understandably, many beneficiaries of the system do not want to give away the benefits obtained from the system. However, we can all have more by ending racism and expanding our economy in a globalized and diversified world. Below please read a few thoughts about racism, where it comes from, and how to end it.   Slap is food for thought. American politics - investing - entrepreneurship (PIE).

Would you go nuclear if you were Putin?

                                                                 This post was updated on April 24, 2022 Will Putin go nuclear in Ukraine? No. Putin will not go nuclear. Going nuclear will get Putin killed or jailed. Putin, like every other animal on Earth, is controlled by the pain / pleasure algorithm of life. Putin will do whatever his brain perceives as being in his best pain/pleasure interest. Putin will try to save face to stay in power. Putin will claim victory and retreat out of Ukraine this summer.  TakeSlap offers spicy food for thought.
