It's that absurdly high Q rate that's "why we can't have nice things" in my opinion. Split it up and calmer, more happy communities can form. | |

"Here's a cardboard box; put everything potentially important into it, and then you'll always know where everything is." In practice, for many of us, that scheme doesn't work well. It would be great if bookmarks had tabs like "tomorrow", "next week", "some day" and "for future reference" just for example, perhaps even with the ability to add timed reminders. But right now it's like trying to organize your desk by moving everything into a big cardboard box - not much improvement. | |

| Apr 7, 2022 at 9:57 | comment | added | David Hammen | My participation at physics.SE and at Stack Overflow have dropped off precisely because I too perceive those sites as "too big". The question I was thinking about answering several hours ago (but was too busy at the time) is almost impossible to find when I do have the time to answer the question. | |
