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.

The span ratings are generally deflection limited for most applications, not breaking load limited. https://www.innovativepanel.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/American-Plywood-Association-Load-Spa...
I'm looking for a very long and sufficiently detailed list of every possible type of facility that exists in the world today, or perhaps is likely to exist in the future. For example, the list woul...
When I'm browsing through questions in the Q/A category, I often want to look closer at the community proposal that the question belongs to. The most obvious path to follow, then, is to click on th...
Relevant to you A single certificate is easier to manage, rotate, etc. Borderline Before Server Name Indication (SNI), you could only bind one certificate to each IP/Port combination on ...
Charles Darwin more or less spent his whole life proving this theory to be true and it's essentially what On the Origin of Species is all about. So if you are looking for rigorous arguments in publ...
This is a [calculation-puzzle], which is a puzzle that involves numerical calculations, generally using the basic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Without using a...
Let's first look at the exponents: \begin{align} 6^5 = (2\cdot 3)^5 &= 2^5\cdot 3^5\\ 3^8 &= 3^3\cdot 3^5 \end{align} We see that both exponents have a factor of $3^5$, which we can th...
Is there a more idiomatic way to create a table like this? What I wrote (after a fair bit of trial and error) did achieve the result I was looking for, but the stroke commands seem a bit complex a...
The Worldbuilding proposal has some "conventional" questions and some that are more open-ended or even "idea generation". This happened in the SE Worldbuilding community too, and the latter got sh...
I had forgotten about this question when I asked this. There's some good discussion there, including a possible category name that I'm including here. Let's create a separate category called some...
So I've been noticing that when it comes to most of my character and monster designs involving shooting fire most of them do this primarily through chemical reactions using gasses such as methane l...
What works out pretty ok with the tools we have, is to make a separate meta thread per help page. Example from when we started up Software Development: Community feedback: What type of questions ca...
MathJax is enabled in this community, but it is not mentioned in the formatting help. If MathJax guidance is wanted, there is some in the Mathematics Codidact formatting help (at the end). This co...
I agree with this suggestion to use Meta to develop drafts (and was about to suggest the same thing). Another thing we could do, when initial drafts have settled down and if there are several page...
I wish to buy Atomic Heart from Steam.[1] I want all the playable DLCs (skins etc don't matter), current and upcoming. Which version of the game I should get? Here are the options: "Default" G...
Backstory I had an idea of a large project to breed specialized soldiers who will be used to fight and kill members of a story-specific group known for being super powered with some of these soldi...
One screenshot per post. If someone posts for example a bunch of screenshots in different angles of the same object, then that gives them an unfair advantage in the friendly little competition. M...
The Steam Deck comes with an OS which is basically a customized Arch, plus Steam, Plasma and some extra programs. The Steam Deck mounts most system dirs as read only, so for example it's not possi...
I am no specialist on audio processing, but I believe the general task of converting raw audio to discrete symbols is called transcription. However, this does not distinguish whether these symbols...
Is economics considered on topic for "everyday science"? There are many everyday situations which seem counterintuitive from an economics perspective, but a closer look reveals interesting forces ...
[Does] information content scale linearly with length, regardless of topic? Information content pretty clearly doesn't scale linearly with length. I used to joke that The Scarlet Letter author...
As I understand it, this sort of thing fits well with what I had in mind, yes. I had already intended that the site would include practical economics questions related to household finance; underst...
On sandboxes For sandboxed development and test environments, I have found mkcert to be pretty helpful. It creates a root CA and happily creates certificates for whatever DNS you want. mkcert war...
Consider Shamir's secret sharing. The idea is you need $k$ out of $n$ parts of a key to recover some secret $S$. Then, if you "summarize" a key and encrypted text without providing at least $k$ par...
Is there a specification meta-language for logics? A formal language which can express, “a logic with variable symbols, unary predicates, and connectives”?
