You know those boring town council meetings you never attend? ...
3:48 PM
I mean the correlary to here on SE vs Q, is that here there is immediate feedback, every user is given due process "Edit Review", so what happened on Q can not happen on SE, because if I made one mistake here I would not have had a tenth mistake be able to happen (Here I would just not be able to edit the Tags/Topics... to make the analogy, versus there I had ten people call me Ulysses or other slurs). I mean idk if I am talking advocacy or law enforcement here, my SE vs Quora is newsworthy?
 
3:43 PM
I went from editing Psychology topology "Quora Topics", to having their algorithm send me News Feed questions promoting "Quora Q&A's with real live prisoners, posted lovingly by Quora Admins". Same time I was having twitter.com/avram tell me on Quora "ur Ulysses". Given discretionary nature of Quora not like StackExchange transparency,...Am I alone finding one day that my entire history was suddenly judged in one week by ppl who never read er told me about my topology? Could you (I) have known?
 
3:34 PM
For matrix.org, there is a beta "Spaces" feature/aspect, which somewhat (relatively...) topologically organizes, say, "Bitcoin" er "Ethereum" rooms into a "Crypto" chat category, helping User Discovery theoretically. (I think it took me some years to notice, that Quora attached additional charges to what I was moderated for, several years after the fact. I was told "style issues" and that changed into major crimes for, I'm guessing, editing Quora Topics. I edited topics for yrs/mnths then boom.)
 
Dec 15 '21 5:14 AM
Well, I was allowed by email to change my name (because I emailed them my ID documents, before they could ignore me, I think the admin did it before they got stopped they were nice to me. I bet the Drama Major would have said No and critisized my request to talk first.). The entire time, 10 years, my whole account 90% of my questions are intact, just I can not get the feedback, like I wrote a book I can not read the original copy.
 
Dec 15 '21 5:06 AM
My last communication with Quora by email, they're just giving me a link to their Terms of Service and saying No to any access to my account. Literally, a link to their ToS. That is to say I appreciate StackExchange versus Quora, Q had secret chat, SE has public chat. Wow. Quite a change in environment. If we applied countries (US, China, Russia, Mars, Venus, Pluto) which is Quora and StackExchange, is that a question I can ask?
 
Dec 15 '21 4:57 AM
If anyone is familiar with the timing, 2012.11 was also, significantly, the very first time Quora made the "Writers" program and "Views" feature, I got to read that maybe a week or so before that happened. Suddenly I have mods editing dozens of questions at a time all in a span of weeks then boom. It's taken me 10 years to respond verbally because wtf? I mean honestly I was being spammed by mods, all in a few weeks, withotu formal warning or processes.
 
Dec 15 '21 4:52 AM
What's humorous about me getting lots of thanks from pschologists for editing their formatting, is that the 1 mod email sent maybe a week before they took action, was riddled with formatting issues, literally like spaces between paragraphs that were weird and names in weird places not a chat just a bunch of accusations I thought it was spam. I was not addressed as having a moderation issue, never the word "mod"/"moderator" once from a real name in public. I was still getting fan mail when it hap
 
Dec 15 '21 4:43 AM
s/I had account for 2 years, then in 1 month/psychologists. Damn 5 minute edit limit making me feel emotional, I would pay karma/reputation points just for a temporary 1 minute additional editing time. .... oh and what does it mean that when I planned this chat I thought of Martin in the room from before years ago (I bet you could prove my entrances coincided in the past:)? :P
 
Dec 15 '21 4:37 AM
It is terrible to think about, I got a LOT of feedback, then after 2 years in 1 month ending 2012.11.19 (exact, by chance like 911, not my timing), I learned that some of the people I was talking to were fans and some were mods and I was not told who was who on Quora.com. I was getting PM's from dozens of psychlogists I edited thanking me profusely for my editing help with their formatting quirks. Then I find out a Drama Major on Quora was a Mod who hated me, & never talked 2me 1st in English?:∫

Can we even track law inforcement itself according to the Law, in code, in wriing, like a record?
 
yst 11:50 PM
I imagine there was a time before the internet/web, when people did not know eachothers ages, and a horrible hilarious history ensued, kind of like the reality of the USA not having ID checks written into C libs by law.
 
yst 11:42 PM
It's amusing that the NYT keeps noticing/mentioning how China requires real ID, then drops the thought from the paragraph. Like some kind of difficulty conjugating the reality is that the US has problems organizing how to just check ID.
 
yst 11:33 PM
Lord the pun is cryptological.

How many ("security") vectors is that badge punning?

Oh, and a b-day is just a API or blockchain confirmation, some good, some bad, some confirmation, what did you think it was for? Make sure you ID and KYC to get valid id data, I know that's not part of the C (library) so that would take time to add, never actually read a good open source ID KYC spec, would probably involve not being able to call as many people "mods" as much as just "sysadmins".
 
Dec 27 '21 8:25 PM
@CaffeineAddiction familiar enough. :] look at me being so judgemental, I guess. (Theoretically I just had to wonder if.)
 
Dec 27 '21 4:52 AM
Well I made twitter.com/traumaha before twitter.com/traumahack then changed URL slug between accounts so "ha" comes after "hack". (Insert some quote here about "Reality mirrors art vs. Art mirros reality"

Dec 27 '21 4:15 AM
Repetition as a Psychology issue, meet Repetition as a technical issue...
 
Dec 27 '21 4:14 AM
I do not even knw how to ask, but I think it's a (S.E.?) question, about the laws/rules/technicals of being forced to repost evidence after the fact for what is questionable. (I'm avoiding repeating trigger words, am I being too abstract or clear enough what I mean?)
 
Dec 27 '21 4:01 AM
@nobody I feared for you being questioned for taking and posting the evidence after the fact, alas...

Dec 27 '21 3:45 AM
Why italics had to be formatted with an asterick sign, in Markdown language, is beyond my understanding.
 
Dec 27 '21 3:40 AM
s/spelling saddens me people think it means /sarcasm on some sites.

I like "*spelling" for corrections/typos with an asterick mark but then if I put italics it messes with the Markdown formatting engine.
 
Dec 27 '21 3:31 AM
*\ is my feeble attempt to "escape character code" and keep italics only on "readout". People rpobably believe I can not read in here...
 
Dec 27 '21 3:27 AM
\s/reading/readin (I swear the *readout in my brain says "Reading" when I write "Readin" even though my enunciation is probably like "Readi...". —& I def learned to drop letter sounds before learning any French, I mean AAVE is similar sounding. Definitely.
 
Dec 27 '21 3:18 AM
@nobody That means User deleted or Mod Deleted or Auto-Deleted? :∫ (I realize that means I do not have enough rep to read the log, and that you might, I mean. In that section do you have enough rep.points to read? And of course, you need enough rep in that specific section(?), I mean.) Some nobody readin this is going to think I am just being dense.
 
Dec 23 '21 11:00 PM
Well rep is very gameable still, currently. Tracking, transparency and reporting systems for points would help that, like in real institutions/government point systems which are bound by regulations and standards that can be investigated according to laws.
 
Dec 23 '21 10:53 PM
@JourneymanGeek Oh, I see your question answer at top. I was referring to rep for other specific needs (bounty, mod help, editing help... utility) not rawly buying points. :∫ I also support campaign finance reform... ethical guardrails... utility points.
 
Dec 23 '21 10:04 PM
Just because it's on-topic today, I will add, I do not have a fun meme, but it's like being poor. On SE many/most Users are poor (which I am not even saying anything about how that judges User knowledge). Which is quite an experience to counter, 2 or 10 points at a time in quiet questions, even good questions that are just quiet mean poor is a constant, which is sad for an educational environment like web Q&A leaders. Even for good questions which are quiet.
 
Dec 23 '21 8:58 PM
I wish I could pay $50 USD for 50 points (well, cheaper ideally, but making a point) just for Bounties (and other help too, to help Users) otherwise it's risky. I am constantly amazed these sites do not monetize effectively when users like me would gladly pay for the reputational security. Heck, I can not pay archive.org but Rhizome and Perma.cc take my money, which is not sensical I mean archive is the older one and always has banners/ads begging for change.

<3 I applied for Linguistics and got into Marketing in 2006, what do I do. I appreciate the effort some people are putting into helping linguistics.stackexchange.com/questions/8719/…, it's been bothering me. I can see my teacher father shaking his head about the Math, & my esquire mother saying something about Law in response, so its informative for me tohave other feedback as well. Just putting into writing helps.

Dec 16 '21 11:37 AM
@chytrik Ethereum > Aether (just to be clear where my sentiments lie in the Bitcoin mempool room. :) Though I remember Burak Nehbit said the 6 month post lifespan could be extended to 100 years, it was just not their dream/opinion, 4 a chatty text-centric 'Reddit that scales'. Burak's been cited for very "opinionated programming", I've read it repeated multiple times that reading their/Burak's codebase requires sitting down once for a long time and reading all in one go.
 
Dec 16 '21 2:59 AM
~blockchainish tool Nehbit made was what s/he termed 'like a blockchain/Bitcoin' but apparently also not what it appeared to be advertised on ZDNet for. Of course YCombinator and ZDNet do not take any more responsibility than the NYT.com for promoting and distributing stupid ideas.
 
Dec 16 '21 2:55 AM
I call this hexspeak and am judged, too. I am not talking about "hexes" I wrote, I am talking about things/incriminations I read (which others wrote and I read, to say again, can repeat if clarity is an issue just ask). ... by the way, Burak's idea had a blockchainish~
 
Dec 16 '21 2:51 AM
I used my real name, by the way, for the record. While we're talking about aether and ether I want to be clear who was talking with their real name on a computer-recorded record.
 
Dec 16 '21 2:43 AM
Imagine how empty StackExchange rooms are, but x (times) a million. I was probably their most active conversations.
 
Dec 16 '21 2:37 AM
@chytrik I went Ether > Aether because of theverge.com/2014/1/27/5349472/burak-nehbit-hired-by-google / zdnet.com/article/…. I can not tell you how appalled I was learning as the only user talking to Burak on Aether most of the time, that s/he wanted Aether to have only a 6 month memory, I thought it would be 100 years. So if others read me and I say Ae over E I would be judged immediately. :∫
 
Dec 16 '21 2:33 AM
touché ... I was interrupted by the bug that always happens on "369" hexes, like my computer/moderator is a numerologist, it only freezes on 69 hexes, could not edit within 5 minute limit reasonably because was impaired by the glitch.com.
 
Dec 16 '21 2:29 AM
@chytrik touche.
 
Dec 13 '21 6:35 PM
I mean the narrative of Bitcoin is that ii suddenly appeared from the ether by "Satoshi" on a cloud? And we have this Wright just sitting there not (not even formally attacked, where is the litigious journalism of CSW on NYT.com?) interviewed in-person on CNBC? Worth not mentioning their name?

Wright/CSW survived the court hearing. ::breathes::

@jack:twitter.com chose Bitcoin over Twitter (by eloquently stepping down like George Washington and Steve Jobs?), how dramatic.

@feetwet Regarding law.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/1371/…, I was referring to law.stackexchange.com/questions/59356/… itself. The irony is I am trying to restore that question because if I use "Parents" in title it gets hate/downvotes, than "Police" which got me an upvote.
