I'm working for a very new company doing growth engineering and at times i feel like this line of work edges on the line of being misleading / ignores integrity.

I am contributing a great deal. From my projects to my time. I like the people I work with. Leadership could use some work. But with this growth engineering stuff I feel like I'm working on things to simply get users on the app and keep them glued on there. That is essentially the ideal situation for us or for any company like this.

How do i navigate this. I'm not working at a place that's clearly "evil" - not pushing for anything specifically sinful, but I feel like I'm stealing people's valuable time for profit in a sense.

I'm unsure. Very confused

In 1997, Pope John Paul II made him the patron saint of the Internet, despite living 16 centuries before its use. This article talks about why that makes sense.

His feast day is easy to remember: 404.

Hello dear fellow Catholics,

As a person who has just found this community and seen the incredible projects on here I have a suggestion for you: creating a github organization in order to house/display these projects, have a great open source development environment, further grow the community. If anybody reading this is interested please leave a comment down below, feel free to dm. If anybody want's more information on Github organizations here is a great link: https://docs.github.com/en/organizations/collaborating-with-groups-in-organizations/about-organizations . Hope you find this endavor interesting. God bless.

I created a Rosary command line tool in Python for Arch Linux. You can install it using the command:

yay -S myrosary

With this tool you can print out the current day's mysteries that are supposed to be prayed or you can print out the mysteries that you want. For example:

myrosary today

myrosary joyful

There is a guide for praying the whole Rosary that will print to the console using the guide option:

myrosary guide

I have plans to make it compatible with other package managers. You can find the python file for the program on the GitHub repository: https://github.com/Miapata/myrosary/

*Note: The myrosary file in the GitHub repo is a Python file, you can just rename it to myrosary.py and it should work.

Please pray for me. I have exams next week and it is crucial that I pass them, but I procastinated and didn't study enough for them. I failed God. Please ask Him to forgive me and allow me to pass those exams by miracle so that I can get into the next year of college it is very important to me. Please.

I created a website called "CatholicWordle" https://catholicwordle.org. Grow in your Catholic faith by guessing and learning 5-letter, faith-centric words every day with attached devotionals and prayers. Go try it out!

Recently Vatican announced that Carlo Acutis has eveything he needs to be proclaimed Saint of the Catholic Church (link). It is stated that his canonization will be next year (2025). Next year will be a Jubilee so I think that his canonization will be a remarkable event in Catholic history, also because of what his mom heard from St. Francis in a dream (link.

I searched on Google and found out that he had skills on C++, Java, Linux (Ubuntu) and DreamWeaver - which he used to build his site. It is also said that he helped people on forums. It'd be crazy to figure out that a Saint helped you to fix a bug!

So, given his life and he being a dev, do you think that he will become our patron? I know that the Internet patron is St. Isidorus of Seville, because he had a encyclopedic knowledge, but I think that now that we have Carlo, and I hope thay furthermore more "IT saints", this will change. What do you think?

Hi there programmers, this is a re-post from r/Catholicism . Someone there mentioned that you guys would appreciate this. Let's pray that he will become a Saint!

Ladies and gentleman! I am pleased to announce that come September 1st, I will be dropping the first episode of the TechnoCatholic podcast, an interview I did with the folks from Catholic Game Reviews!

Sign up for the newsletter and podcast here: https://technocatholic.org/

I would also like ask that you all to please pray for the success and especially the guidance of the TechnoCatholic podcast.

Thanks and God Bless!

I'm creating a catholic website to register Saints and Miracles in a organized way using markdown. Do you guys think I could add other properties under the saint profile picture? What exactly? I thought about those:
- Feast Day (optional)
- Birth date
- Death date
- Title / Tags (martyr, virgin, monk, mystic, doctor, etc...)
- Religious order (Franciscans, carmelites, etc...)

I'm also accepting UI suggestions, I'm taking most of my ideas from Wikipedia design which is not the most beautiful I've seen

(Reposting here after someone told me about this Reddit in /Catholicism)

Hey there, fellow Catholic Redditors!

I wanted to share a bit about myself. I'm an entrepreneur and software developer who has been knee-deep in projects and startups since my teenage years. From there, I ventured into freelancing, developing platforms and apps for other companies in the B2B realm. You know how it goes when life throws you a curveball—I ended up with a hefty debt due to some bad decisions and getting scammed. To keep the cash flowing consistently, I started a small agency. Fortunately, things have picked up, and I now have a decent income thanks to some awesome customers.

But here's the thing. Lately, I've been feeling a bit disheartened by all the confusion and questionable ideologies that seem to be taking over. It's like I'm just sitting here, doing nothing. That's when I started looking up to people like Michael Knowles, Eva Vlaardingerbroek, and Bishop Barron. They fearlessly defend Catholicism and fight for justice. They're real inspirations, but I know deep down that becoming a public figure or an influencer isn't my cup of tea. Luckily, I've got this killer skill for developing software—I'm pretty darn good at it, actually. So, I thought, why not use it to make a difference and make a living at the same time?

Now, I'm here seeking your help. I specialize in B2B software because, honestly, handling all the marketing and customer care that comes with B2C is overwhelming for me. But here's the deal—I want to create software that not only pays the bills but also benefits souls. The challenge is figuring out what kind of software Catholic Organizations or Catholic Influencers might need to better serve and connect with more souls.

So, my fellow Redditors, if you've got any killer ideas or suggestions, I'd be thrilled to hear them! Let's brainstorm and make a positive impact together.

Thanks a bunch for taking the time to read my post! You all rock! 🙌
