I'm really curious if they have, because on this thread, there's a bunch of comments from "unknown user." If whispers have been implemented, how do I use them? I can't seem to find any information about them.
What are you reading currently? Fiction or non-fiction or poetry, any genre, any language! Tell us what you're reading, and talk about it a bit.
I'm finally going to update the wiki today, hopefully. FYI.
Previous topics will be ARE listed in the UPDATED wiki!!! as soon as I update it.
What are the Big Problems? I'm leaving this open-ended, there's no specific criteria for responses.
I'm interested in both your list and the reasons why. Submitting your list before reading others' contributions would be preferred.
Optionally: who is (or isn't) successfully addressing them. Individuals, organizations, companies, governments, other. How and/or why not?
I've asked this question periodically on several forums (G+, Reddit, HN) for seven years now.
I've written fairly extensively on my own views, reasonably findable if you wish, but my interest here is in gaining fresh input, resetting my own biases, and not colouring the discussion overly myself.
If I had a really rough day or accomplished more than expected, I make sure to reward myself as such. I've found that I treat myself to a local pizzeria or take a bath in steaming hot water and zone out from the world for an hour.
I've noticed an interesting cultural difference between New Yorkers and Californians.
Lets say I am a bumbling tourist, inconsiderately impeding foot traffic, yet clearly lost and in need of help.
New Yorkers, in my limited experience, will bluntly say "hey moron, get outa the way," but then there is always one willing to help me out if I ask.
Californians, in general, will be very polite, but typically get a little nervous if a complete stranger asks for help.
Disclaimer: I've lived in California, but have only visited New York, so my observations are a little biased.
Just curious how popular this place is now.
