at that point I start recycling them, and go back to parenthesis.

so when bp = 300x - 3, this:

4( 4[ 4{ 15bp + 10 } - 375 ] - 2250 ) - 15000

would turn to

4( 4[ 4{ 15( 300x - 3) + 10 } - 375 ] - 2250 ) - 15000

perhaps not the best, but I rather stick to conventional symbols rather than using… idk, question marks? that’d be funny as hell, though

just picture it:

4© 4« 4¿ 15bp + 10 ? - 375 » - 2250 🄯 - 15000

isn’t this a good change though?

This is what made YouTube rabbit holes fun a few years ago. Now we’re all in our own echo chambers.

Thanks! Tired of removing the tracking “?si=” parameter from YT links

ETA: Fun clip, nonetheless. “Smoothness over clarity”, huh.

thanks, bot. i wouldn’t know otherwise that this post on c/selfhosted is about #selfhosted

I assume having them split by the predefined categories, instead of juggling all the open windows.

Then again, I don’t know other alt-tab options.

This is basically the P=NP problem! 🤔💀

Yeah, you can easily assess whether things are going ok at any moment, but it’s hard as fuck to know how to make things ok from scratch.

Exactly! That, and I can tweak my writing to see if it conveys what I want. I cannot just hit ctrl+z when I’m talking.

Most times I feel I’m having these galaxy-brain thoughts but they come across as pea-brain sentences when trying to articulate them (how long is long enough for a rant/explanation?). Going meta has also not gone well for me. By that I mean discussing about how we’re discussing the topic at hand. It seems to be shrugged off as a tangent or distraction, when I believe it’s a good baseline for the current and future conversations I might have with the person.

Discourse online is better suited for the exchanges I like to have with others (such as the folks on this very thread), because arguments can be better fleshed out and people are less afraid to share their rationale. Ideas and perspectives can clash, but it’s not necessarily bad. Just like peer review in science papers.

It’s suspiciously weird that all these changes on various platforms are happening within a short timeframe

I wouldn’t be surprised if it is to prioritize AI above everyone. Roko’s Basilisk is on the way.

Exactly! I have read discussions on how to implement here better upvote/downvote systems than reddit’s. While it may work, it will take time to experiment and evaluate different ratios (1:1, 5:1, or no downvotes, etc.)

Rather than changing the weights of each, classifying posts is a cleaner way to manage and orient a meaningful discussion from the get-go.

ETA: As tags seem to not be a thing in the near future, what would be relevant classifiers for the community? Based on your comment and the activity I’ve seen here, these would make the cut: Vent, Help, Meme, Discussion, and Infodump
