In the corporate world, it doesn't really help to get defensive over negative perceptions. Even if they are false; telling people they're wrong, misinformed, or stupid is bad PR. Just say you'll fix it, add a couple more holidays to the work calendar, and move on with life.
If you can replace effect with implement, accomplish, you're kosher (effect is also a verb). For instance, the GP may be saying, "I honestly wonder how this will actualize the web development industry moving forward." This statement is fully buzzword-worthy for use in water-cooler dialog, and therefore not out of the realm of possibilities of intended meanings.
You sound quite informed on Jewish history, and as I cannot claim to have studied it in depth I must submit that you're more likely to be correct than I. Apologies for being simplistic about Yahweh, I had no clue you were so well informed on theology! I erred on the side of caution.
Now, if you'll just take a prostrate position for your beheading, we'll have this all wrapped up in a short bit.;P
The whole point of moving to America back then for most folks was to get away from religious persecution. The idea that no one should die because they have a different faith was ingrained in America from the most enlightened deist to the the most devout puritan.
John 14:11 is perhaps the second-most obvious (though there are countless other examples): "Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves." In this text, he's using "in" in an existential manner; it refers to coexistence and coequality of essence and substance.
The most-most obvious, however, is John 8:58: "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM." This is the crucial one because "Yahweh" is simply ancient Hebrew for "I am." At the time, there were something like four or five extant claims to being the messiah. But the one guy calling himself Yahweh was considered a blasphemer.
Also, remember that the Jewish concept of the moshiach has changed a lot over the last two thousand years. Originally it was supposed to be war leader; like a second coming of David, to throw down the various oppressors and enslavers of the Hebrew people. After the destruction of the temple by the Romans, Judiasm has had a two-thousand-year identity crisis. Many Jews no longer believe in a moshiach. Others think the moshiach will be just an event, or an idea. A mere concept that will somehow change the world. But in the original Hebrew texts (from before 200 CE, so predating talmudic texts like the mishnah), the moshiach was definitely a person.
Some people are listening. Marco Rubio just announced he is withdrawing his co-sponsership of the bill and now opposes it, saying, "Since then, we’ve heard legitimate concerns about the impact the bill could have on access to the Internet and about a potentially unreasonable expansion of the federal government’s power to impact the Internet. Congress should listen and avoid rushing through a bill that could have many unintended consequences." If enough senators can be swayed by an influx of negative reactions to the bill, we can kill it.
A full-time designer does not have the time to learn how to program. The good ones end up having to work 12 hour work days, seven days a week, as it is. And many design firms do not spend the money required to get a good coder to help the designers.
There are some awesome cheap upgrades available, too. Froknowsphoto suggests the f/1.8 35mm prime lens (about $200) as a great first upgrade for the D3100. The bokeh shots I got of my nephew at f/1.8 in front of the Christmas tree were amazing.

There is absolutely zero incentive to do so.

Damn those bb forums and their tags, and damn those previews for letting me click through them without retyping the whole message!

I'll have what he's having, bartender.

They're not arresting an idea. They're arresting a bunch of script-kiddies who broke the law.
Excuse me, sir, you're needed up in the cockpit.
"The B is for 'bargain'." Thanks for that; I needed the laugh.
I'm not embarrassed to say that I only knew what "exoteric" meant because it was Dictionary.com's word-of-the-day.
Clarendon Code. You have no idea what you're talking about, and you need to read up.
Where, exactly, was there an "accepted" diversity of religious practice in Europe? Like, say, any time before the Confederation of the Rhine?

Correlation does not show causation.
Except.... they did.
Ok, then I suppose I gotta take Germans off the list.
I mean, there isn't even spot on the podium for 4th place, is there?
Pretty sure the Germans, Russians, and Chinese still have us beat, numbers-wise.
If I sign up, do I get an awesome evil henchman future-suit?
Damn you, dnaumov, now I have to open at least 5 Wikipedia tabs so I can later pretend I understand something about investing.
Lessee... "PE".... 41 matches. This is gonna take a while...
