DIS: comments on theses

2019-06-13 Thread Kerim Aydin
Just wanted to make a couple comments: 1. I think CuddleBeam's text is decent for an A.N., but I would object to any A.N. where the text wasn't published in Agora first (especially given the editable nature of the Wiki). 2. Falsifian's work on the CFJs is excellent and deserving of thesis,

"understood" :) To fill this out, at one time we had a more strictly-structured judges' rota system that used a bunch of puns on the "bench" concepts with switches on whether a judge was "sitting" or "standing" and "lying down" IIRC that indicated how recently e'd been a judge. Actually relevant

Re: DIS: Idea: Notice and comment

I personally like the idea of requiring judgments to be published before becoming binding. I think that worked out well for everyone when Falsifian did something similar (although less formally, of course). You mention apathy being an issue for gathering actual arguments in response to a CFJ.

DIS: Idea: Notice and comment

2019-06-13 Thread omd
Idea: Create a Rules-defined "notice and comment" process for judgements. Since I became active, there have been two judgements in CFJs about minor scams I attempted (3728 and 3833). The first one I had a minor quibble with, so I moved for reconsideration, but nobody bothered to support it. I

that's dumb. the rules can't say that 'interpreting' something is IMPOSSIBLE (well they can, but it utterly defies reality). instead they have to just positively say what is true under them; to wit, they do not proscribe unregulated actions. On Thu, Jun 13, 2019 at 7:38 PM D. Margaux wrote: >
