@SteveTaylor Agreed.

More topically, my Psalm a Day podcast has been going for 38 days with a few close calls. Today's episode is especially rough around the edges. But it occurs to me I will never be as professional as people who hire editors and use real studios. So why not capitalize on my strengths which are . . . Hmmmm . . . Not sure what my strengths are in this case. ;-)

I got into a fight a few years ago with a friend of a friend. My friend was incredibly apologetic when we talked in person. He felt so bad. (And so did I.)

Nah. For avoiding getting dragged into conflict. FB is terrible if I let it be.

I'm mostly kidding. I think Twitter is more manageable than Facebook.

Twitter. The devil's own social media network.

My thought is that the text and its interpretation should be accessible to all. I kinda think of it like Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time for the Bible.
Jon Ericson
Oct 20, 2020 00:06
Sure. It's kinda the struggle.

Right.

Pretty much.

Q: What should I ask?

Jon EricsonSome days (like today) I log into Biblical Hermeneutics and see not much going on. So I think, "What question should I ask?" Asking good questions on demand turns out to be very difficult, if not impossible. What are some good ideas for questions I can ask? Meta-note: I'm most interested i...

Q: What is our tagging philosophy?

Jon EricsonJeff Atwood says, "It is my strong belief that the tags page is an essential map of what your community is, and is not, about." Many sites have a primary set of tags that categorize questions. On Arqade, those primary tags are the only tag most questions carry. It's easy to see the site is abo...

Hmmmm... I thought there was a good explanation on Meta, but I guess not:

@PrinceNorthLæraðr Tag? How do you mean?

Oct 19, 2020 20:16
And we're off. Hard to believe this day is finally here.

Oct 16, 2020 16:28
Now we have 4 nominees!
Jon Ericson
Oct 15, 2020 18:02
We still have just three nominees. :-( Please nominate yourself if you have any interest. I'm happy to show the ropes even if I don't get elected myself.

I thought y'all might be interested in my new podcast in which I read a Psalm a Day.

Not an exciting election so far. If you are on the fence, I encourage you to nominate yourself and see what happens.

@PaulVargas We need 3 total. I'm not sure which of the current mods will nominate, however.

Hi @TonyChan! Good to see you here. If you have a little time, I'd be interested in your answers to these questions.

@Dhammadhatu So, that's a bit off-topic here. We're talking about the election. I'm also a little uncomfortable linking to crowd funding sites unless we know the person. :-/

I also should point out I'm part of the problem. I sometimes spend days between visiting the site. It's not great for a smaller site like this.
Jon Ericson
Oct 6, 2020 20:30
@curiousdannii I agree. (I also love that we're going to get this election started and finished in October. Long campaigns are for the birds.)

Can't believe it's finally happening. ;-)
