Tadukoo Bible Program Advances

 The Tadukoo Bible Program is a program I'm working on that will replace the Tadukoo Bible Bukkit plugin.

It took months to make the Bukkit plugin because I was hand-copying verses from biblegateway.com and then formatting them into yml format. Now with the program, I can download them all (and have them formatted into Properties automatically) in 17 minutes.

I also wrote a secondary plugin to take those yml files and format them into other yml files to fit into Minecraft books. Originally, it took about 2 minutes per chapter, meaning 39 hours of running the plugin. Now the program takes 2 minutes to do this.

The program is being designed so that it can be reused for Bukkit, Spigot, Spout, Forge, Sponge, as a stand-alone program, and much more rather than just Bukkit or one of the others. Currently, it only runs as a program, but I'll soon be making it work with Bukkit (and Spigot). The others will come in time, and hopefully I'll be able to re-use it for so much more in the future.

I'm Leaving Blogger (Old)

This post is old, I've since moved back to blogger (see this post ).  Once the blog posts are back, I'll be updating the links here to point to their new locations. As of today, I'm officially leaving Blogger. I'm taking all my posts with me too. I've setup two websites for my future blogging and programming projects, and all my posts from here will be available on one of those websites moving forward. The first website is my personal website, https://tadukoo.github.io - On it, I'll be posting about my personal projects as well as any random posts I feel like posting. Most of my posts from here will be moving to this site, as most of my posts were about personal projects and random posts. This website is early in development, but it will ultimately include many details about me and what I'm working on. The other website is for my new open source GitHub organization I'm started called Tadukooverse. The website is https://tadukooverse.github.io  - On it, ...

How Truth is Found (Tadukoo Bible Project)

 I previously talked about the Tadukoo Bible Project . I mentioned that "any truth is God's truth". While that's true, it has to be understood how you find truth. How you find truth is a philosophical topic that is part of the study of epistemology. While it's a very interesting topic to talk about with all the various philosophers and their ideas, I'm not going to go into detail about all that here, but I'll present a bit of my experience in college philosophy. Early on in the class, we talked about different kinds of relativism (ideas that certain contradictory truths could both be true). I wrote them down, noting how crazy they seemed and figured we'd discuss why they're false. We didn't. I can't recall talking about any philosopher who accepted the obvious fact that absolute truth exists and that relativism is a joke. Let me clarify (since there are many varied definitions of relativism), that I am saying that to say two things are true...

How to be Creative (Tadukoo Bible Project)

 The idea with being creative in the Tadukoo Bible Project  can be misinterpreted (just like anything can be). For example, someone could think a way to be creative would be to present an idea that goes against what I believe and then refuting it and presenting my belief. While this is creative (and could be used honestly in the project), it can easily be done in a harmful way. If I would present an idea as true for 15 minutes in a 30 minute video without any notes in those 15 minutes (or the title or description) that I don't believe the idea, but then in the 2nd half of the video refute the idea and present my idea as true, it wouldn't be good. Some people would quit watching in those 15 minutes with the idea that I believe whatever I was presenting, which would be giving them the wrong idea. A better way to do it would be to include somewhere at the beginning (or in the title or description) that I'm simply presenting the idea and will refute it later (and I could includ...
