Please no personality quiz. I refuse to learn that I am a blue triangle. Any review system should be quick enough that normal people do not lose interest before they arrive.
I’d rather judge behavior than opinions. Rotating volunteers seems healthier than one permanent person deciding who belongs.
I would be very happy to see the music and books sections become places where people explain why they recommend something, rather than only dropping titles.
August 10, 2026 at 3:54 pm in reply to: Onion browning times in curry recipes: am I missing something? #79I think “brown” is often being used too casually in recipe writing.
For quite a few dishes I make at home, five minutes is enough only if the instruction really means soften and take off the raw edge. If I actually want the onions properly browned, it takes longer. But I would not generalize that to every regional style.
August 10, 2026 at 4:37 am in reply to: Expertise, sources, and the noble art of saying “I don’t know” #3771That sounds about right to me. I’d rather someone say ‘this worked for me’ than pretend one example proves a rule. A professional title matters only inside the area it actually covers.
August 9, 2026 at 6:27 pm in reply to: Expertise, sources, and the noble art of saying “I don’t know” #3764Right, and I’d add one thing. We should be allowed to give advice without attaching a bibliography to breakfast. Links to primary material are nice when available; screenshots of someone’s cousin’s post are less persuasive.
August 8, 2026 at 2:00 am in reply to: Expertise, sources, and the noble art of saying “I don’t know” #3745Yes, provided the scope is clear. the phrase ‘I don’t know’ needs better public relations. Book and music arguments can remain gloriously evidence-resistant.
Right, and I’d add one thing. I would read this one regularly. Please keep room for ordinary practice questions alongside history and philosophy.
I’d support a Yoga & Dharma forum.
A little drift makes people feel like people. If the side subject becomes the reason new people are joining the thread, it has probably become a topic.
That is the part I agree with. The question for me is whether the original poster can still get an answer. If the software makes splitting ugly, tolerate more drift rather than produce administrative debris.
I like the request to build new habits instead of spending every week looking backward. A new space should be allowed to develop its own character.
Good request. Gear threads alone could probably keep three people employed.
We still print a small number, mostly family photographs. Not because the print itself is superior, but because physical photographs actually get seen.
Digital storage is excellent for keeping everything. It is less successful at making anybody revisit it.
Right, and I’d add one thing. I don’t want a giant code of conduct. Personal attacks, threats, spam and deliberate harassment seem like the obvious hard line.
