You could even do an image with a QR code to the kbin or lemmy address.

I agree with much of what other commentators have been saying. Discouraged I’m on board with, I think having a strict rule is premature in a new community that’s small in scale - we can afford to wait and see how conversations play out and reevaluate later. Civility is the principle that’s important.

I had a feeling that the silence over the last few days was a sign that a huge amount of work was happening behind the scenes. I also think you’re doing an excellent job of communicating with us. Thank you for all your effort that’s allowed this community to grow.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention. Discovery is difficult right now, advertising in places that are genuinely relevant is a real service.

I’m sure there is, though I’ve never looked into it. If it’s tap water, the approximate range for some of the minerals is usually on your local water quality report.

I think I’ve experienced this a few times that I can recall.

Yes. The content of various common minerals can vary by orders of magnitude across different sources. Though I pay attention to this less on its own and more in the context of brewing tea, since the water you use affects the outcome quite a lot.

Another thing I think people could do, is to gather links to relevant smaller communities and post them to larger communities, to help discoverability.

I'd try a rhubarb sauce drink. For savory - aged balsamic vinegar.

That's definitely a better graph visually. (The image capability is cool, the graph I got on the earlier model was in text form). But I think it is wrong - "prepare (tinder, kindling, and fuel wood)" are all redundant to each other. Plus there's a direct link from "prepare tinder wood" to "maintain fire" - if this is a causal diagram indicating the sequence of actions a person needs to take, "prepare wood " should link to "light fire". I don't have a record of the exact prompts I was using, but I was working more with the fact that oxygen. fuel, and heat are all necessary but independent preconditions for a fire to start.

Although AI will impart a pretty new flavor to it, I think whether or not AI gets used a tool to create more genuine value, vs being used to produce bullshit at greater scale and efficiency, comes down to human organizational factors that don’t have much to do with AI. Take the example of the recommendation letter: if the person writing the letter and the organization receiving it cares that content of the letter reflects real experiences, then I think AI writing assistance will be used to that end. If it’s just a rote requirement that needs to be ticked off, then lazy AI written letters will prove quite effective. Whether people care or not I think has to with the interaction of their own personal values with the structural incentives the organization. New developments in AI may highlight how those incentives are aligned or misaligned, but potential solutions have to do with a facet of human behavior that’s much more ancient.

Gorogoa had a beautiful and unique look. Looks like a detailed illustrated book in a multicultural fantasy setting.
