No, it defeats the bullshit “wisdom of crowds.” D-K is like the gravitational constant.

@fesshole Same with StackOverflow - that site is toxic. For all the complaints about AI - it gives me better results without the blatant misogyny. Not least - no mansplaining to me why my question is wrong. I will not miss its demise.
@chronovore @fesshole oh don’t worry, as a man I too always get a bunch of busybodies explaining why my question is wrong wrong wrong (alternative explanation: could be that I just ask really stupid questions 🙂)

On Linux forums I, a woman, would get ignored and disrespected. These days I ask my question, then switch to a fake account to give a completely wrong answer, then switch back again to thank them and praise their Linux knowledge. The experts show up right away. Sorted.
@fesshole If you don't know the answer, how do you know it's the wrong answer?
This is, of course, a version of the "a stopped clock is right twice a day" problem.

@fesshole It's just nerds not able to resist to correct wrong stuff. I see it all the time. Hell even they cant resist apostrophe's and wrong splellings !
But I have respect for women. I'm just scared of them. I'm afraid to look at their faces, eyes or come in contact with them. Not because I hate women, but I don't want to offend, or cause any kind of commotion. I'm scared of the unknown and they are the unknown
I've had traumatic experiences with my parents, especially with my mum so yeah...

@chronovore @fesshole the same happened with mathoverflow. It wasn't like this when it started but at some point in the last decade it changed.

@fesshole That's really disappointing to hear.

@juliaclement @fesshole I don't know what the cure to cancer is, but I sure as hell know that it *isn't* topical chlorine gas. We've known that since WW1.

@fesshole I really wish this sounded less legit. :(

@juliaclement @fesshole it's something she tried and didn't work, so it's surely wrong

@jesusmargar @chronovore @fesshole Tends to remind me of walking and dog. They just GOTTA PEE right here because someone else was here and their stink needs to reign supreme. That's really what's going on. Sad apes beating their chest trying to mark territory where they feel powerful.

@fesshole Not a woman but often incapable of eliciting a response to my basic Linux questions. Maybe I should try your method!

@juliaclement @fesshole she probably posts about something she already tried. Something that sounds feasible (hence answer) but didn't actually work (hence wrong).

@chronovore @fesshole that's what drives me crazy about SO
At its start it was really helpful. But then the site gradually became less about Q&A and more about going for points and e-peen measuring. Way too many questions end up "why are you doing that" or having the highest voted answer being flagrantly wrong
Still it's nominally better than the before times where searching a question turned up forum threads with no answer, elitist flaming, "fixed it" or paywalled Experts Exchange links.
@beeoproblem @chronovore @fesshole I always hated finding someone with the exact problem I had, on the exact components, running the exact programs. Then after reading 83 responses they post again “never mind, fixed it” archived from 2 years before.

Gov’t Mule – The Tel-Star Sessions (2016)
Non si sa bene come definire questo nuovo lavoro prodotto dalla band di Warren Haynes e soci. “The Tel-Star Sessions” nasce infatti con l’intento di rispolverare una serie di registrazioni effettuate dalla band nello studio da cui il disco prende nome, che si trova a Bradenton, in Florida, e risalenti al lontano 199... https://noblogo.org/available/govt-mule-the-tel-star-sessions-2016
