#2630·Dennis HackethalOP revised 9 days agoDiscussions are getting slower to render as they grow. It’s a rendering issue (not a db issue).
I could cache ideas so deeply nested trees can be rendered at once.

Feature idea: a page that shows you a random idea of yours that has pending criticisms and then helps you address them all.
Feature idea: page at /ideas/:id/guide which shows you an idea and helps you address all pending criticisms one by one, if any. At the end, it shows a message ‘You’re all set!’ or something like that.
On iPad, the footer doesn’t extend all the way to the bottom of the page.
Changing the query on the search page moves the cursor to the start of the query input. It should move to the end or, ideally, keep its position.
On the search page, there should be a button to clear the query input.

#420·Dennis HackethalOP revised about 1 year agoNow that there are user profiles (#408), each profile can have a tab for unproblematic ideas. Among all the ideas a user has submitted, those are the ones he can rationally hold. And another tab for problematic ideas, ie ideas he has submitted that he cannot rationally hold.
Then people could occasionally check the second tab for ideas they think they can rationally hold but actually can’t. And then they can work on addressing criticisms. A kind of ‘mental housekeeping’ to ensure they never accidentally hold on to problematic ideas.

#2620·Zelalem MekonnenOP revised 10 days agoFallibilism is the view that there is no criterion to say with certainty what’s true and what’s false. As a result, we inevitably make mistakes and all of our knowledge is tentatively true. Nothing is obvious but depends on what one understands about reality. It also means that no knowledge is beyond revision, even if it asserts itself to be so. This means that we can't be certain about anything, because we don't have a criterion of truth. Knowledge grows by addressing problems in our knowledge. We solve problems by guessing solutions and testing them. This also means we should always be careful not to destroy or even slow down the things and ideas that correct errors and thereby create knowledge. Some of those ideas are freedom, privacy, and free markets. We are also never the passive recipients of our knowledge; we are the creators.
This view is mainly influenced by Popper, and errors are my own.
… all of our knowledge is tentatively true.
This is still false, see #2603. You moved it from one place to another but I don’t see how that helped.

I didn’t want to just write what you have suggested, parroting isn’t understanding. Writing it in my own words helps the growth of both my understanding and writing. test edit

You didn’t write my suggestions in your own words. You ignored them and instead wrote something else.

#2603·Dennis Hackethal, 10 days agoFallibilism is the idea that all of our knowledge is tentatively true…
That isn’t true either.
I had already suggested replacements for the first sentence in both #2374 and #2589. At the time of writing, those ideas have no pending criticisms. You could have safely gone with either one.
Instead, you wrote something different for no apparent reason and introduced a new error in the process.
What are you doing man, come on
