Love Quotes
Love is a complex emotion that cannot be forced or controlled. True love develops naturally over time as two people build a spiritual connection and affinity for one another. While love can come in many forms, from fleeting crushes to lifelong partnerships, it is a powerful emotion that makes life meaningful and provides healing for those who give and receive it.

Ha36 06072015 - we ought to obey god rather than men
1) The early church grew rapidly through multiplication - starting with 120 disciples and growing to thousands just after Pentecost and tens of thousands in Jerusalem by Acts 7.
2) The key to growing by multiplication mentioned are trusting God's word, having unity of purpose, and preaching the gospel boldly. However, growth also brought adversity as religious leaders tried to stop the spreading of the gospel message.
3) Remaining faithful witnesses to Christ in spite of adversity is important for continued growth. The apostles were willing to obey God rather than men in their preaching.
Passover
The document summarizes chapters 11 and 12 of the book of Exodus from the Bible. It describes how God told Moses he would kill all the firstborn sons of Egypt as the final plague, which caused a great cry.

Making the case
This document provides guidance on organizing persuasive arguments using classical rhetorical structures or modern marketing approaches. It discusses gathering an audience's attention, providing context, outlining an argument's thesis and parts, making and supporting claims, refuting counterarguments, and closing with a compelling appeal. An example debate topic on nuclear weapons possession is used to illustrate how to plan an argument by identifying knowledge gaps, structuring an outline with classical elements, and determining the most persuasive reasons and evidence for the intended audience. The key is to understand an audience and frame an argument in a way that convinces others they already agree with one's position.
Visualizing arguments
The document outlines an argument that it is wasteful for the city of Chicago to destroy confiscated weapons. The argument claims that the confiscated weapons, estimated to be worth $2 million, could provide funds for the city's needs rather than being destroyed. Evidence includes that the city already sells other confiscated contraband. The argument acknowledges the common belief in Chicago that more guns lead to more violence, but notes that nationally crime rates have declined as gun ownership has increased, suggesting guns in lawful citizens' hands may not cause increased harm.

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their Mainframe
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
