It is bizzare to me that Google's hangouts product didn't end up filling this niche. I cannot understand why they followed FB lead instead of working to dismantle the attraction of closed messaging systems. Topical group chat seem

For those who check comments before following through to the story Riot is the main web interface for the Matrix project, the opensouce IRC and slack alternative. And Riot was formerly named Vector.From the look of it the project is going g

I wish to strongly second your observation that focusing on the worst case results in one steering towards the worst case and leads to rumination which results or at least worsens depression. And acceptance of reality as it is seems to he r

Maybe depending on the person and which side they come from. Personally I come from the side of defaulting to doing nothing. Deciding against action is easy to me. Defaulting to action means avoiding the doldrums of apathy. I imagine more a

Capital D depression implies they were diagnosed with major depressive disorder or are certain they meet the requirements and are aware of the difference between sadness and Depression. If you see this elsewhere it is context specific. But

Riots often occur when groups feel they have no other recourse. There is sometimes a positive fallout from the riot but at such an extended time that it isn't clear the riot had anything to do with it. It's a group activity that s

I actually wrote a reply explaining why it was a great name and vector somehow fell flat before understanding that you were being genuine. I agree. Riot has that edge but a Riot is always a group activity. And it's something anyone can

It is the straightforward assumption that house ape was used to refer to the original posters son returned from adulthood and with a negative connotation. That is why the assumption was made. I cannot imagine what other use you could have i

And it's a fine point but I would rather people speak plainly when giving accounts of how their prejudices were wrong. It is helpful for us to make fun of our past failings.

Doesn't it? App stores share much of the virtues of package managers. And with the 90% comment being what it is it's fairly clear mobile is not the subject of the grandparents comment. Also the discussion is rather pre-mobile. Mob

This was the conclusion I came to when I first considered the question. I later decided it was a moot point. The question "is there free will" generally assumes or implies to most people, I think, that if there is not free will th
