Interesting creepy search result: In the Health private beta, they're holding a chat session for mod-pro-tem candidates. Here's a discussion of what to do with wrong advice, which naturally would be a similar concern on such a site as it is for us. Susan, who's a mod on Biblical Hermeneutics, gives a long and thoughtful answer that references our attitude and shares our desire for built-in disclaimers.

... She links to activity on the Meta.Health site that I look forward to reading when it comes out of private beta.

I have joined the ranks of the Internet trolls. Just posted my first angry YouTube comment. youtube.com/…

@IsaacMoses The Maccabeats get it right.

My brother actually noticed that they weren't saying "moshiach" and thought it was wrong. :P I made sure to correct him on it.

@IsaacMoses FWIW, MBC makes that mistake in the original too.

@Scimonster Good for them. And for you. :) There's a chazan I've heard from time to time who consistently makes this very error in Kedusha, and I've cringed every time. The fact that various tunes cause one to emphasize that syllable make it worse - emphasizing the error.

@Scimonster MBC?

Miami Boys Choir

I assume

@IsaacMoses You tell 'em! Grammar mistakes that are heretical are the worst. Consider the mercha/tipcha switch here: he.wikisource.org/wiki/…

Of course, most Baalei Keryiah routinely read אשי יהוה without a Dagesh Chazak, which is pretty heretical too. Oh well.

@IsaacMoses I assume you had something to do with that (saw the tweet earlier). Thanks!

@MonicaCellio I did cause @mi_yodeya to tweet it out with your ID-suffix. If this was wahat got your the badge, that's the first time I know of that one of these tweets accomplished that! Had you shared this question yourself previously, elsewhere? If so, the tweet may have just helped you over the top.

@IsaacMoses I don't remember sharing it via other means in the past. If I did it wasn't recent. (I did retweet your tweet, but that you'd already constructed the URL.) So it seems likely that, yes, your tweet did it. :-)

I'm surprised this is the first time, actually.

@MonicaCellio Well, we haven't gotten may retweets. I don't know how many people see and notice a given m_y tweet, but it might not be too many.

... m_y currently has 224 followers, which, in the scheme of things, isn't very many.

It's more than I have, so while my retweet brought some new eyeballs, it's not like somebody big picking it up. (Did you not tweet the T Rex question? I see you have an announcer badge for that.)

Jon Skeet's two questions generated Announcer badges too, though he might have done that himself.

@MonicaCellio Most of my announcer badges, that one included, I think, are mostly attributable to posting links on reddit.com/r/judaism

@MonicaCellio Yes indeed. He makes his own weather. He has 39.4K followers.

@IsaacMoses ah. I didn't realize you were active on reddit. Or rather, I forgot -- I think I knew that, now that you mention it.

@MonicaCellio ... and lo and behold, look what I'd forgotten that I did: reddit.com/r/Judaism/comments/32x6w5/…

@IsaacMoses that'd do it. :-) And I assume he tweeted his questions; I think I remember seeing a retweet of one of them.

So, the reddit posts are still more powerful at bringing us views than tweets.

@MonicaCellio, usually, on reddit, I'd've used my own suffix. I ended up using yours here as a result of just copying the link I'd had m_y tweet.

@IsaacMoses oh! Yeah, I guess that reddit has more followers than our twitter account, but fortunately "both/and" works -- no need to choose. :-)

@IsaacMoses makes sense. I assume that reddit is the source of some of your other Announcer badges, then.

@MonicaCellio True enough. Also, you're supposed to limit the proportion of your posts to reddit that are promoting your own stuff.

@MonicaCellio Contributed to most or all of them, I think.

@IsaacMoses makes sense.

@MonicaCellio ... in conclusion: You're welcome.

@IsaacMoses :-)

Heading home soon -- Shabbat shalom!

(I will leave the insertion of the canonical image to others. :-) )

Good old Sketchy theme! Nice to see you again. :-)

(Contained, here only, I mean -- I wouldn't want the site to change. :-) )

@IsaacMoses @msh210 do you both still live in STL? I seem to recall one of you saying you had moved, but I can't find the chat message

@Daniel Isaac's profile says "Silver Spring, MD" and he welcomes visitors there. Seems plausible that he [no longer] lives in STL.

@Daniel also, there's this: meta.judaism.stackexchange.com/a/2242/472

(Which, granted, doesn't outright say, but...)
