[From the Pastor’s Desk, page 2 of 2]
4 General Character. Of course, no one is perfect and we lean into grace but sometimes it's easy to see where one candidate is trying harder to demonstrate selfless rather than selfish behavior. This includes a realistic look at how the candidate has handled his/her own family and interacted with the public in the past.
5 If a candidate is proposing restrictions to health care and education then that candidate is working in direct opposition to the Gospel.
6 A whole life approach to things in general. As opposed to merely “pro-life” this means an attitude that works towards solutions that make the choice for life more likely. So, things like universal child care, access to affordable health care, etc. are to be worked toward.
7 Specific to this election is a consideration of immigration. Here is what the Bible says about that: Leviticus 19:33-34: "When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.” (Note that this is a direct command from God.) And in the Greek scriptures, Hebrews 13:2: "Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.” What candidates and policies honor that sentiment?](https://fedi.ml/photo/preview/640/605835 "FPC Monterey View - November 5, 2024

For all the talk about big-city Democrats and rural Republicans, it's the voters in overlooked places like Sandusky, #Ohio, and Racine, #Wisconsin, who could decide everything from key congressional races to the presidency.

Есть такой спор касаемо юнит-тестирования и разработки:
👉 Использовать в релизациях "final class" чтобы защититься от непреднамеренных наследований, но тем самым сломать моки в тестах и либо страдать, либо использовать костыли для манки-патчинга убирающие "final" в тестовой среде.
👉 Не использовать "final" чтобы не городить костыли в тестах, но потенциально страдать от нерадивых разработчиков, которые любят понаследовать направо и налево.
// Само собой, это релевантно только там, где есть синтасксис "final", который ломает моки.
