Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.
Are you here to participate in a specific proposal? Click on the proposal tag (with the dark outline) to see only posts about that proposal and not all of the others that are in progress. Tags are at the bottom of each post.

There is a lot of debate about the "cognitive" capabilities of LLMs and LLM-based chatbots, like ChatGPT. It's common to see statements like "these models just apply statistical pattern matching" a...
The mouse market is divided into two main areas: Cheap, no-name brand mice that are very low quality and hard to use "Gamer mice" which are premium-priced, use high quality parts, attempt (with...
I don't know about the terminology, but a lot of Warhammer (Games Workshop) dice have a special design on the 6th face. This is not the same as a blank, but it could serve your goal of emphasizing ...
Codidact is wide open to have any sort of community proposed. This means that any kind of proposal can also gain a significant backing from either new or existing members. However, that does not me...
Consider the following claim: In any causal relationship X -> Y, it is always possible to find an intermediate effect A such that X -> A -> Y. This is a claim about nature, not our c...
In darker spaces, I often hold a light source block in the offhand to light up the area around me, such that I can see properly. However, when I use the wooden axe to select pos2 of a working area,...
When looking at a tag in the Incubator Q/A category, I often want to know which community that tag belongs to. As is the case today, tags in that category aren't actually confined to a single commu...
I am afraid that the answer to your question is actually quite simple: there is no consensus among scientists. This is illustrated by the fact that the "fathers of Deep Learning" do not entir...
Common general-purpose battery types available on the market today are: Disposable batteries, usually with some sort of zinc chemistry Older, generic rechargeable batteries, usually nickel chem...
I've noticed that it's possible to use DNS Name multiple times, so that a TLS certificate will cover multiple domains. Alternatively, you could generate a separate cert for each domain. What are ...
As you already mentioned in your question, dirt and moisture. A finish makes it easier to wipe dirt off, and prevents it getting into the wood. It also vastly slows the uptake of liquid water and h...
The bits are either bent, or were made (formed, ground to shape) improperly. Straightening bent bits is possible in theory, but likely to prove difficult in practice. Assuming you get everything l...
AI is a broader field than Machine Learning. For example, Automated reasoning and Knowledge Representation are AI, but not ML. Most modern AI is about Machine Learning, but not all AI is. Given th...
Occasionally a situation develops in a community of people where two members come into some personal conflict. Let's suppose that neither member is doing anything particularly against the community...
I have a Flashforge Adventurer 5M Pro 3D printer. I'm using Orca Slicer to prepare the print files and then transfer them to the printer via a thumb drive. After a print is finished, the base plat...
Yes, you can make sense of it: mass The property you are searching for is "mass". All the matter you describe as tangible and intangible is matter with mass ("particles"). Also electricity can be ...
Invasive Species was proposed almost a year ago but has no incubator posts. The proposal includes outlines (titles) of sample questions that would be on-topic, but they haven't been developed into...
Philip K. Dick would posit[1] that the surface war is all done by robots. The robots lie about what is happening on the surface, and ended the war as soon as no one could independently verify the s...
I'd worry more about society than the resurrected individuals, I think. Specifically, I think that people (in general) have enough adaptability that, despite how we portray them in science fiction...
The past is a foreign country. The people resurrected from the past are much like people immigrating from undeveloped countries into developed ones. Especially the way these immigrants were in...
The underground society may be technologically advanced, but they are still humans, and humans have a tendency to create their own explanations for visions and experiences they cannot scientificall...
It probably depends a lot on what you mean for an "organization" to not remember its origins. For example, can I believe that most (pardon the dismissive term) employees don't know how they came a...
When Distant Horizons generates LODs for chunks past the vanilla rendering distance, does it generate full chunks and store them permanently, like when vanilla Minecraft generates them, or does it ...
I suggest some modes to pick in order to adjust the breathing. Some of which can be combined: Can just breathe normally: This would solely be based on the assumption that the whole organism is res...
Vault-Net has control It was considered at some point to install an AI that would help the underground people to have a comfy life. The programming was something like "Protect the underground peo...
