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.

You've found the right place. Check out how to propose a community on the codidact.com network in the Help Center. The high-level summary is to create a post in the Descriptions category, explain...
The main problem isn't subjectiveness IMO - many philosophers would already object there and ask what knowledge that isn't subjective. But rather the risk of too many overly broad questions. To be ...
I think the categorical imperative is often trivialized as “basically the age-old adage of ‘the Golden Rule’”, whereas it is a more nuanced idea, especially in the context of related philosophical ...
Historians resort to source criticism rather than reproducible experiments. Well this is clearly not true. The whole purpose of archeology is the "experiment" phase of the scientific method. S...
When we were looking to replace a kitchen floor (in the US), we got our best results by searching for the type of flooring, not the type of provider. Tile, hardwood, and vinyl plank are pretty dif...
If both the CA and the client software follow the RFC, the client software will refuse the cert. Section 4.2 (Certificate Extensions) of the RFC you link states ... Each extension in a certific...
In machine learning there seem to be various types of learning. I commonly hear about supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. However, it is not always clea...
Over the years I've done a lot of my reading through libraries, borrowed books and chance finds at garage sales and the like. Now I want to start working on my reading list, so I will be purchasing...
What most instances of this trope miss is that the forces from these super fast and powerful limbs have to go somewhere. That rules out silliness like the Bionic Man and your super-strong soldier ...
I personally think that alphanumeric postal codes (such as used in the UK, Canada, and Ireland) look best in small block capitals and old-style numbers. So I created a postcode function to do that:...
One big disadvantage of mechanical keyboards is that they come with more friction and a longer distance for the key to travel. Which means slower typing. This actually makes them less suitable for...
What was the rationale for removing it? This wasn't my decision so I'll answer the discussion side rather than the support side. I'll leave the rationale to be answered by someone who knows. ...
I have updated and formalized the scope definition of the Sports proposal. This post is intended as a general discussion post regarding site scope. Specifically as of 24-06-27, I would like feedba...
Which game first introduced the concept of rolling dice to determine a direction? I'm designing a board game and I know which game gave me this idea[1] but I doubt it was the first to use it. I'm ...
Short of specialty items you have already eliminated as more than you want to pay, the simple solution to the software, privacy, whatever issues of "Smart TVs" is to make sure that the thing has so...
The key is in the name, in this case. Oriented Strand Board (generally shortened to OSB) means, literally, that the wood chips are (roughly) oriented so that the majority of them have the grain of...
"Mechanical" keyboards have individual switches for each key, as opposed to a rubber membrane, as noted in another answer. These keyboards have a taller profile, what we used to think of as the st...
In Sweden (and probably most of Europe?) you simply hand them in for the battery recycling at your local recycling station. People would get shocked if you threw batteries in the normal garbage. W...
How does climate change research establish causality? For example, when it is said that human activity causes global warming, what sort of logic is used to justify this claim? Let's not get into t...
Our website relies heavily on user generated content and power users that edit, curate, and moderate that content. Recently the amount of content contributed to our site has taken a nose dive. Loo...
I have this idea about people with "Psionic" power. Psionics in my story are primarily beings able to emit and/or manipulate a special energy field from within that takes physical form. They can ex...
In a fictional alternate version of present-day Earth, scientists have found a way to resurrect people from the past en masse. The resurrected will have bodies that resemble their original ones bu...
I would like to get a picture of the general supporters (those who are "okay" with this) for a Worldbuilding community. There is already a mechanism for this. Let's not confuse things by creating...
A lot of TVs on the market these days are "Smart TVs" which I don't want. I've had smart TVs in the past and found that I don't use any of their features. Further, the software is often laggy, bugg...
I only have a working knowledge of TLS. TLS today supports name constraints, to restrict which domains a CA can issue certs for: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5280#section-4.2.1.10 I've seen ...
