Warning Christian values discussion from a Christian that is not a Priest, Preacher, or Minister might be important to international regulation
Maybe some will appreciate the range. I am homeless in freezing cold weather, in Dallas a place that is usually notoriously hot. I am a Java programmer (appreciation for getters and setters). Desire to scream at the sky replaced by thanksgiving (give thanks in all things from Bible).

Worth acknowledging there are many on the streets in freezing temperatures in Dallas, TX might not be that different from other years, different for me – I have had more visibility to it this year than in the past. Good people on the streets, not fully appreciated could equate to those with accessibility problems not being fully taken care of either.

My funding has been tied up for years, worthy of acknowledging reduced head starts factors into less capacity to deliver in a present not far away. Might be affecting more than self.
A homeless shelter I went to in Dallas filled up quick requirement to wait around all day without enough spots – a bit scary with freezing temperatures, also a reminder that time, time that is valuable to others is devalued through systematic processes. We say we value throughput as a society, yet we have shown precedent for not always making systemic processes easier and more straightforward. Not as big of a deal until you yourself or someone you care about has to rely upon that same safety net.
I care about our society, I am Caucasian, a disproportionate amount of those on the street are African American. Less injustice in advance is valuable. Was kind of hoping with my combined investments in Support Amps, Medicine, AI, and Supercomputing, World Peace there would be more people protected, less on the street in freezing weather.
Dart Stations might could use overhead heaters, city could definitely use more publicly accessible bathrooms. When I was homeless in Miami, FL they had showers at the beach – not really good options in Dallas, TX. Maybe fitness club membership.
Greater population, new problems vs exponential increases in computing power and potential throughput? Being in engineering and seeing the potential, and seeing what I am seeing is jading. At the same time there are reasons to be thankful.
Bible and AI – helps the least of these – might be a good litmus test. Desire to scream at the sky to energy and words useful to try and help others’ situations might help my situation too. Discouragement to catharsis, gratitude situation is not worse, while the situation might not be the utopian paradise I was hoping for there is potential for seeing better days.
Try to help others when your support and finances are tied up is jading – should have more, more available, more accessible and can’t deliver or delivery further puts own life at risk. Appreciation for God, prayer, problems bigger than self, self’s capacity to fix alone. Try to take it all on back breaking, versus Never Say Die do what you can don’t count God, Christ out of picture?
