These are criticisms that are leveraged against stack overflow all the time. I'm more lenient on SO's stance because it at least wants (or claims to) to be a repository for truth, rather then filtering out questions because of "lol noob"

While this looks fun and beautiful, what disappoints me is that it seems like almost entirely symmetrical gameplay. A large part of the universe and themes of Dune is differing cultures in a way that I don't think can be authentically expressed via a Terran/Zerg/Protoss faction system. For example, the Bene Gesserit operate as individual agents embedded into other factions.

Without even allusion to, say Fremen objectives not being to Harvest all the spice, I am skeptical

What makes you say that? People against Boris's policies are not to be conflated with anti-maskers. We are currently the worst performing nation per capita.

I bought an EZ Flash IV last year for around £35.

For a long time, Reddit moderators did not have the tools to do this. Regardless, whenever bad-faith argumentation is removed, the person whose comment was removed paints the event as censorship which just backs up their conspiracy argument more

It's a pretty interesting approach to the website and there's some features I never would have discovered on my own, but the author's reasoning seems pretty poor. The premise being that multi-line stretches of underlined text are difficult to read, therefore link-text (typically 1-3 words) should not be underlined.

It's also quite ironic that the author's argument against ligatures in programming fonts is that the simple substitution doesn't respect semantic difference, whilst using emphasis to signify that there is a link present

That hierarchical structures became dominant after the invention of agriculture does not imply that agriculture necessitates hierarchical structures.

> And even if it was acceptable to most people, it would take only a small minority opting out to retain the power to subjugate everyone opting-in and ruin the whole effort.

Could you expand on this?

If a population does not tend to follow expert advice and a politician is incentivized by an upcoming election, it seems more of a negative incentive for them to act according to rationality

>In my country (but I guess it's the same in most, except perhaps some Nordic countries) bars, pubs and discos only reduce seating or close indoor spaces when forced to by law, in spite of the evidence that they cause lots of outbreaks.

>The government recommended remote work whenever possible but many companies just ignored it in spite of having many workers that could perfectly work remotely, and just implement it when forced by law.

I believe an anarchist response to this would be these examples are not so much cases of people (generally speaking) going against expert advice out of choice, more that it is a few individuals in positions of power (pub landlords, business owners) exerting their will (for personal gain) on many other people who are not in a position to push back. Employees who heed expert advice risk their job security and healthcare in doing so. By removing hierarchies and power we may well see better outcomes than we do at present. That is, the behavior you are seeing is the effect of a political system and it is not necessarily true that these same behaviors will exist by changing to a different political system. If Anarchism in practice would not entirely end the behavior, it removes the innate incentivization of the behavior

This is really neat - useful and beautiful. My only minor concern is that thicker/thinner is ambiguous and my first thought would be that they carry out the heavier/lighter functionality. Perhaps denser/sparser would have been more appropriate?

I've been working on something similar for the past couple of days, but the trouble comes with wanting static types. There are a few projects out there that offer either a microdata parser, or types derived from schema.org but nothing that combines the two as yet

Sorry, I don't follow. Could you expand?
