This is so true.... Someone told me this and I followed it... It works so well.

Good to know you tried it and it worked.

Some developers just like typing 60 words per minute very loudly just to make the people around them think they’re the baddest programmers, not knowing that they are building a white elephant.

But the truth is that:

A typical day for many engineers includes:

Reusing internal components/snippets
Copying patterns from previous projects
Modifying boilerplate
Using IDE autocomplete
Using AI assistance
Refactoring existing code instead of writing from scratch

Very little professional programming involves manually typing 60 words per min every day.

What matters is:

understanding the code,
integrating it correctly,
debugging it,
maintaining it,
and designing good systems.

Senior engineers are usually valued more for architecture and decision-making than raw typing speed.

That said, there’s a difference between:

productive reuse, and
blindly copy-pasting without understanding.

The second creates fragile systems and technical debt quickly.

Modern workflows often combine:

templates,
frameworks,
generated code,
AI copilots,
existing libraries,
and selective manual implementation.

For example, developers using GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or OpenAI API tooling may “author” far more code than they physically type themselves.

A productive engineer in 2026 is usually someone who can:

Understand systems deeply
Reuse intelligently
Verify correctness
Ship maintainable solutions quickly

not someone who manually types the most characters.

The word God originally meant something like “the one invoked” in ancient Germanic languages, and it evolved into the modern English term for a supreme divine being.

The word “God” has a long linguistic history that goes back to ancient Germanic languages.
1. Proto-Germanic roots

The English word “God” comes from the Proto-Germanic word *gudą. This was used by early Germanic peoples to refer to a deity or divine being.

Old English: god
Old High German: got
Old Norse: guð

All of these forms are closely related and show the same root.

2. Possible deeper origin
Linguists think *gudą may come from a Proto-Indo-European root such as:

*ǵhu-tó- meaning “that which is invoked” or “the one called upon”

This fits with the idea of a deity being someone people pray to or invoke.

3. Connection to other words
The word “God” is not directly related to the Latin word deus or Greek theos (which give us words like “deity” and “theology”). Those come from a different Proto-Indo-European root (*deiwos, meaning “shining” or “celestial”).

4. Capitalization and meaning
In early English, god could refer to any deity (like Norse gods).
Over time, especially with the spread of Christianity, “God” (capital G) became the standard way to refer to the one supreme deity in monotheistic traditions.

I heard .NET 9 no longer supported some apps might want to migrate to .NET 10 but all these can cause real headaches to developers due to discrepancies and errors. November .NET 11 would be released fully with C# 15 .


The Bills of Microservices isn't small because you are cloud services separately and it requires a team

For solo developers without the budget of big companies for cloud services, they can create their REST API endpoints and host them on shared .NET hosting to save on cost.

Here is a list of breaking changes in .NET 9. If you are not using any of them, then there is nothing to worry about for now.

I am trying to simplify the concept because many new . NET guys run from it because it is difficult to maintain like monolith which is easier. I don't want to sound scary by quoting concepts they can't understand. If you look at the title you will see it is for beginners not advanced programmers . I didn't even mention Ocelot an open-source API Gateway built specifically for .NET and ASP.NET Core

Yeah, I get your point. Apart from being used for large software projects and multiple teams, I feel that for a solo developer who wants to bring other developers into their project, microservices are a good way to distribute tasks so that each developer only has access to their own code.

Per-function microservices vs Per-feature microservices vs Hybrid approach:

There isn’t a single “best” way to structure microservices per function or per feature—the right choice depends on what you’re optimizing for (speed of delivery, scalability, team structure, or operational complexity). But there are some strong patterns that industry experience consistently converges on.

1. Per-function (technical decomposition)

This means splitting services by technical capability, like:

Auth service
Payment service
Notification service
Logging service

Pros

Clear technical boundaries
Easy to reuse across multiple features
Good for shared infrastructure concerns

Cons

Quickly becomes “distributed monolith”
Features require calls to many services
Harder to understand business flow
Teams get dependency-heavy quickly

👉 This works best for platform/infrastructure services, not full product design.

2. Per-feature (domain / business capability)

This is the dominant modern approach:

“Checkout service”
“Search service”
“User profile service”
“Order management service”

This aligns with Domain-Driven Design (DDD) “bounded contexts”.

Pros

Matches real business logic
Easier to reason about end-to-end features
Better team ownership (one team per domain)
Fewer cross-service calls per feature

Cons

Some duplication (e.g., each service may need auth logic via shared libraries or gateway)
Harder upfront design (you must understand domain well)
Boundaries evolve over time

👉 This is generally considered the “best default” approach today.

3. Hybrid approach (what most mature systems end up with)

Most real systems are not pure either way:

Core domain services (feature-based)
Orders, Payments, Catalog, etc.
Shared platform services (function-based)
Auth, logging, email, analytics, file storage
Edge services
API gateway / BFF (Backend-for-Frontend)

This avoids forcing everything into one decomposition style.

4. What actually matters more than “per function vs per feature”

The real success factors are:

Clear ownership (one team per service)
Loose coupling (no chatty service chains)
High cohesion (one service = one reason to change)
Independent deployability
Strong API contracts
Observability (logs/traces across services)

If those aren’t true, the decomposition style won’t save you.

5. A practical rule of thumb

If you're designing from scratch:

Start with a modular monolith
Define business modules (feature boundaries)
Extract microservices only when:
scaling needs demand it
teams need independent deployment
boundaries are stable and clear

Bottom line
Per-function microservices → good for shared technical infrastructure, not product design
Per-feature microservices → best default for business systems
Hybrid approach → what most scalable real-world systems converge on

@SIRTee15

I will put it to you again:
Why would a Jew declare someone who calls himself the Son of God to be the Christ without first exploring the religion for himself, but instead choosing to explore other faiths in Israel and then choosing to live as a Pharisee, instead of becoming a follower of your Christus?

@SIRTee15

Why would a Jew declare someone who calls himself the Son of God to be the Christ without first exploring the religion for himself, but instead choosing to explore other faiths in Israel and then choosing to live as a Pharisee, instead of becoming a follower of your Christus?

@SIRTee15 The above are all of Philo's writings we've been given not his full library.

If Josephus truly wrote that Jesus is the Christ, then he would have tried Christianity, instead he only explored these religions:
1) Pharisees
2) Sadducees
3) Essenes and
4) After exploring these, he says he spent three years living in the wilderness with a hermit named:
Banus. Banus lived an extreme ascetic life (minimal clothing, wild food, constant ritual washing).
Only after this did Josephus return to society and choose to live as a Pharisee.

These was all the Jewish historian Josephus in his full library wrote about Jesus Christ:
“At this time there appeared Jesus, a wise man,
for he was a doer of surprising deeds, a teacher of such people as accept the truth gladly.
He won over many Jews and many of the Greeks.
He was the Christ.
And when Pilate, upon an accusation made by the principal men among us, condemned him to the cross,
those who had first come to love him did not cease.
He appeared to them on the third day restored to life,
for the prophets of God had foretold these things and a thousand other marvels about him.
And the tribe of the Christians, so named after him, has still to this day not disappeared.”
“He convened a council of judges and brought before them the brother of Jesus, who is called Christ, whose name was James…”

Why historians think it was edited
The reasoning is based on several lines of evidence:
A) Josephus elsewhere
In other passages, Josephus:
Never confesses belief in Jesus as Messiah
Treats messianic movements critically or politically
Is generally cautious about supernatural claims
B) Early Christian writers

The earliest Christian authors who quote Josephus:
Sometimes do not quote this passage in full
Or show slightly different wording traditions
C) Stylistic mismatch

Certain phrases look more like:
4th-century Christian apologetics
than
1st-century Jewish historiography

And this was what Tacitus in his full library wrote about your Christus:
“Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace.
Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus, and a most mischievous superstition, thus checked for the moment, again broke out not only in Judea, the first source of the evil, but even in Rome…”

How did you debunk this:

Philo, a Jewish writer living next door in Alexandria, Egypt, during the time of the fictional Jesus’ ministry, never mentioned Jesus. Yet you rely on Tacitus, writings far away in Rome, in the second century, who was not even born during Jesus’ lifetime.

1) Pontius Pilate disturbances in Judea

Philo: Philo of Alexandria
Source: Embassy to Gaius
Date described: c. 26–36 CE (Pilate’s governorship; Philo is describing events within this period)

Event: Roman standards / shields incident in Jerusalem
Pilate installed imperial shields in Jerusalem (likely early in his rule, c. 26–30 CE).
Jewish population protested because it violated religious law.
Philo portrays Pilate as politically stubborn and eventually forced to back down.

Philo’s framing (paraphrased):
He describes Pilate as inflexible and the situation as creating major unrest in Judea.

2) Crisis under Emperor Caligula (statue in the Temple)

Philo: Philo of Alexandria
Source: Embassy to Gaius
Date: 39–40 CE

Event: Order to place Caligula’s statue in the Jerusalem Temple
Emperor Caligula ordered his statue to be installed in the Jewish Temple.
Roman governor Petronius delayed enforcement due to mass Jewish resistance.
Philo describes extreme fear of war and massacre.

Key date anchor:

Crisis peaks in 40 CE, shortly before Caligula’s assassination (Jan 41 CE).
3) Anti-Jewish violence in Alexandria

Philo: Philo of Alexandria
Source: Against Flaccus
Date: 38 CE

Event: Pogroms in Alexandria under Flaccus
Jewish population of Alexandria is attacked and restricted.
Synagogues are destroyed or desecrated.
People are confined to a smaller district of the city.

Key date:

Occurs during the reign of Caligula, under prefect Aulus Avilius Flaccus in 38 CE.
===================================================================

For this:

This was all that Tacitus wrote about Christus:
“Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace.
Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus, and a most mischievous superstition, thus checked for the moment, again broke out not only in Judea, the first source of the evil, but even in Rome…”

Quoting from a book written in Rome around 116 CE where the story was invented, will not help you.

Philo, a Jewish writer living next door in Alexandria, Egypt, during the time of the fictional Jesus’ ministry, never mentioned Jesus. Yet you rely on Tacitus, writings far away in Rome, in the second century, who was not even born during Jesus’ lifetime.

SIRTee15:
Listing people called Jesus in the 1st century wont help u. Jesus simply mean Joshua and its a common name in the 1st century period.

Tacitus was talking about a Jesus Christ who suffered under Pontus Pilate. who is that Jesus also called Christ?

In his Annals (Book 15, Chapter 44, written around AD 116), the Roman historian Tacitus describes the aftermath of the Great Fire of Rome in AD 64. Tacitus reports that Emperor Nero, accused of starting the fire, sought scapegoats and targeted Christians: “Consequently, to get rid of the report, Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus” (Annals 15.44). Tacitus further notes that this “most mischievous superstition” spread from Judea to Rome, where it became widely known.

I felt it was best to move this to a new thread.

SIRTee15:
So was Tacitus lying when he said they crucified Jesus

These are some Jesuses in the first century so which one, well most likely it was Jesus son of Sapphias that was crucified for leading a rebellion against Roman occupation of Israel.
Tacitus wrote about Jesus in his work Annals, specifically in Book 15, chapter 44.
When was this written?
Most scholars date the Annals to around 116–117 CE
This is during the reign of Emperor Trajan in the early 2nd century
So: Tacitus wrote about Jesus around 116–117 CE (early 2nd century), not in the 1st century.

1. Jesus son of Damneus
Mentioned in Flavius Josephus (Antiquities of the Jews)
High priest of Judea (appointed c. 62 CE)
Took office after the execution of James (as described by Josephus)
Political-religious elite figure

2. Jesus son of Ananias
Mentioned in Josephus (Jewish War)
Apocalyptic street prophet in Jerusalem (c. 62–70 CE)
Shouted warnings of Jerusalem’s destruction for years
Arrested, beaten, and eventually killed during the Roman siege period

3. Jesus son of Sapphias
Mentioned in Josephus (Jewish War, Galilee narratives)
Galilean political/factional leader during the outbreak of the First Jewish Revolt (c. 66 CE)
Involved in violent local power struggles in Tiberias
Not a national commander, but a regional agitator

4. Jesus son of Gamaliel
Mentioned in Josephus (Antiquities)
High priest in the mid–late 1st century CE
Member of the priestly aristocracy in Jerusalem
Part of the shifting high-priestly appointments under Roman authority

5. Jesus son of Sepphas (or Cephas, depending on manuscript interpretation)
Mentioned in Josephus (Jewish War)
Priest connected with Temple affairs during the war
Involved in handing over Temple valuables to Roman forces (under Titus’ campaign context)

6. Jesus son of Thebuthi
Mentioned in Josephus (Jewish War)
Priest who surrendered sacred Temple items (including vessels) to the Romans
Appears during the final stages of the siege of Jerusalem (70 CE)

How, in today’s technologically advanced age, can some adults here still insist that Jesus Christ was a historical figure, when even many people in the country that brought it to Africa regard the story as fiction?

Truth is that if you still believing this nonsense you should go and register at the nearest kindergarten nearest to you.

JESUS CHRIST NEVER EXISTED - And It Doesn't Matter What You Call Him Or What Colour You Make Him


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-zFQvyFWr4

What those saying Jesus is real and is the only way will not tell you is that they secretly keep juju in their wardrobe.

Know this that God Almighty of the original Torah is the only True God.

Very Strange Experience With My Father. Should I Be Worried?

Hello guys.. the background behind this story is lenghty so to spare you the trouble ill jump straight to the point. My father though he has his flaws is a very religious and i dare say principled man in some aspects.n He never misses church service. Went to bible school. At one point he was even a house fellowship leader. He prays and fast often.

So on this day i was standing in the doorway to my dads room. He wanted to send me on an erand ''i think'', so he opened his wardrope to get to get the money. Immediately he opened his wardrop i saw a BAT...yes BAT hanging upside down right there in his wardrope. In shock i jumped and shouted

''daddy see bat see bat !!!''.

Guess what he did. He simply smiled and gently closed his wardrope. I have never been this confused. I saw a bat hanging upside down in his wardrop and all he did was smile and gently closed the door. I don't know what to make of it. I have already concluded, there is no way on earth this is from God. Up until this time i have never seen a bat up close in real time. The closest ive been was watch them on television. Contemplate how scared and confused i am now. I picked up an excuse and ran out of the house to go stay with my relative..its been a week since i left and im still too scared to go back.

What do you folks make of this? How can a man who prays and fast and attends bible school have a BAT in his wardrope. WTF !!

Theres a part two and this one is about my mother.

Why was the Book of Enoch removed from the Bible? Jude directly quotes from the Book of Enoch but not the book of Jesus, yet it is not included in the Bible. This means Enoch is actually the Christ as Enoch walked with God, wrote a Book and was taken up by God. If Jesus was real and the messiah, he would have written a book.

Jude 1:14–15
“Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about them:
‘Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones,
to execute judgment on all, and to convict all the ungodly...”

The country needs ten presidents not two

In Judaism (Messiah / “Mashiach”)
In traditional Jewish belief, the Messiah is a future human leader from the line of King David who will:

Gather all Jews back to the Land of Israel
Rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem
Establish an era of peace and justice worldwide
End war, suffering, and oppression
Lead people toward deeper obedience to God’s commandments
Bring an age where knowledge of God becomes widespread

In Christianity (Second Coming of Christ)
Christian belief centers on the return of Jesus Christ. Commonly expected events include:

Christ returning in glory (the “Second Coming”)
A final judgment of all humanity
Resurrection of the dead (in many traditions)
Separation of the righteous and the wicked
Defeat of evil (often symbolized as Satan)
Establishment of a “new heaven and new earth”
Eternal life for the saved in God’s presence

In Islam (Jesus / Isa as the Messiah)
In Islamic belief, Jesus (Isa) is the Messiah, but not divine. His return is part of end-times events:

Jesus returns to Earth near the end of time
He defeats the false messiah (the Dajjal)
He restores justice and true monotheism
He breaks the cross (symbolically rejecting false beliefs about him being divine in Islamic interpretation)
He unites people under worship of one God
Peace and fairness spread before the final judgment

In Islamic belief, Jesus (Isa) is the Messiah, but not divine. His return is part of end-times events:

He defeats the false messiah (the Dajjal)
He restores justice and true monotheism
He breaks the cross (symbolically rejecting false beliefs about him being divine in Islamic interpretation)
He unites people under worship of one God
Peace and fairness spread before the final judgment

When the True Jewish comes the first time:

1. Gather all Jews back to the Land of Israel
2. Rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem
3. Establish an era of peace and justice worldwide
4. End war, suffering, and oppression
5. Lead people toward deeper obedience to God’s commandments
6. Bring an age where knowledge of God becomes widespread
