And nothing was everything too! Singularities will give you a headache faster than temporal mechanics.

Good luck tomorrow Jonathan! When's your defense?

They didn't have much in the way of specifics. I wonder if this change has de-motivated them from a possible GPU implementation, since the end date may move up a couple of years. There was talk for a brief period about a HCC GPU version.

HFCC has been going the other way for me lately ... taking longer to run. I remembered you had mentioned that as well.

I just got bronze for DDDT2.

Next up is probably ruby for HFCC. Some way or another, this is progress.

Here is my thesis paragraph. I will post the whole paper by wednesday evening.

Working Title:
god Is Not Great: An Analysis of Classical Theist Theodicies

In this paper, I aim to clear the field of theodicies (proposed solutions to the “problem of suffering”) that defend the God of Classical Theism (the view that God is omniscient, omnipotent, and perfect). To that end, we will consider three theodicies that attempt to square the existence of an omnipotent, omniscient, and perfect God, with the profligate existence of evil. The first two perspectives are “Biblical” views, in that they find their sources in the Bible. The first argues that those who are suffering deserve their suffering, hence, if one is suffering, one need only search for one’s sin. The second, on the other hand, argues that God does not cause people to suffer, that on the contrary, God wants the best for people (and prioritizes the needs of the poor), but sometimes, God must allow undeserved suffering to exist. The third and final view we will consider is John Hick’s "Vale of Soul-Making" Theodicy, which argues rather uniquely that the alleged conflict between the God of Classical Theism and the world of suffering is predicated upon a misinterpretation of God’s plan for humanity. In each section, we will take up one of these proposed answers, develop it fully, and assess to what extent it is successful. Finally, by way of conclusion, I will discuss how Humanists justify meaning and value in a world without God and sketch a Humanist approach to the problem of suffering that I hope will demonstrate the fact that we do not need God in order to understand and cope with human suffering.
