A good book describing this is <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Old-Order-Conservative-Mennonite/dp/1561481017/">An Introduction to Old Order and Conservative Mennonite Groups</a>. The liberal groups are too accepting of modern culture. They have lost the discernment to distinguish between good and bad/evil, so they cannot become good programmers. The more conservative groups are more resistant to modern culture. But one way these groups protect themselves from modern culture is by limiting technology. Clearly a group that limits technology too much, for example by banning the internet, cannot become programmers. So the challenge is to find a group with the best balance - conservative enough to reject modern culture, but tolerant of technology so that they can become programmers.</p> - <p>I found what I think is <a href="https://map.churchindex.org/church_profile.php?id=c7797e65-90ff-11ee-b0e9-00163eb3bc90">the optimal church</a> <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/FKj2uoSBV3QiomS79">in north Mexico</a>. When I visited them, I didn't have a clear plan of what to do. A number of them are carpenters and they expressed an interest in better carpentry software. So now my plan is to develop good tools for programming carpentry software, and then try to get a Mennonite from this church to work with me on implementing a carpentry program. I am not doing this for money, I am doing this to save programming from modern culture, so the Mennonite can have full ownership of this software. If he can make money by selling this program to other Mennonites, then I hope that this becomes a seed that encourages other Mennonites to learn good programming.</p> + <p>I found what I think is <a href="https://map.churchindex.org/church-profile.php?id=c7797e65-90ff-11ee-b0e9-00163eb3bc90">the optimal church</a> <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/FKj2uoSBV3QiomS79">in north Mexico</a>.

But for carpentry software, I need to support a desktop user interface and 3D rendering. It will take me some time to develop these tools. First I will implement a text editor in <a href="https://www.luan.software/">Luan</a> as a real application that requires a desktop user interface. Then I will implement basic 3D rendering. Only after these are done will I go back to the Mennonite church to discuss my plan with them.</p>
