Who said anything about challenging views all or most of the time?

The issue with constructive dissent is that if someone perceives an initial idea as bad, it cannot be dismissed or criticised; it has to be built on. Do we want things to be built on flawed foundations? We should be able to say “no” without being cast out from our own community.

I think we need to either redefine safe spaces, change people’s expectations of them, or get rid of them entirely.

This is a very extreme example. I’m saying that more nuanced discussion and differences in views from within a community struggle in safe spaces.

I understand the concept. I’m saying that this way of working creates echo chambers.

Unfortunately, a lot of these safe spaces become echo chambers. People don’t want to have their views challenged or try to see things from other perspectives. Many attempts at constructive dissent as mentioned in this post are discouraged and are generally unwelcome.

UoPeople doesn’t charge for online college courses, course materials, or annual enrollment. Pay our minimal fees as you go, never upfront.

What are these minimal fees, and what are they for? I’m always skeptical of these online learning providers that imply they are free but don’t quite say as much.

They did see the criticism; in fact a lot of it was aimed directly at them. But they thought that they were right.

A spokesperson told Bloomberg that the fee will “help cover the costs of running a separate infrastructure and measuring its effectiveness.” So a significant part of the fee is to pay for measuring it? What’s that phrase about the bureaucracy expanding to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy again…?

I did use the cross-post feature. Many apps do not recognise or acknowledge cross-posting yet which might explain why this article may have appeared multiple times for you.

This was originally published in 2021 so I wonder why it has a new article.

The source code of the original game was leaked last year.

This bot should see when a link has already been posted and not duplicate it. Similarly, some kind of automod should prevent the same article being posted twice.

As you’ve been very diligent reporting errors and suggesting changes to map data, have you ever considered contributing to OpenStreetMap? You might like helping by using the app Every Door on iOS, for example.

If they’re cross-posted they’ll show up only once (though not all apps support this feature yet). I cross-post when I know something is especially relevant to multiple communities. If I don’t then someone else will, either not cross-posting or using a different source, meaning it will definitely show up multiple times to people.

It’s “wuster”, actually.

This was discussed on both communities you posted this two five days ago:

I did use the cross-post function. Most apps do not currently acknowledge this function which might explain why the article has appeared to you multiple times.

This is just the same as the guy who calls his friend that “knows computers” about the most amazing app idea ever that’s totally guaranteed to make both of them millions. He can’t make the app himself; he’s just the ideas guy. Sure, he can’t pay anything right now, but it’s absolutely worth working on a vague idea for months for the chance of being a multi-millionaire by the end of the year. Right?
