Given the choice between publicly shaming bad behaviour vs. preempting bad behaviour with a laundry list of expectations, I generally prefer the former. (n.b. This is not about Codes of Conduct.)

That said, Cory Doctorow's "good questions" guidelines in this talk are both spot-on and concise :)

1. A good question has one part, not two
2. A good question is not more of a comment than a question
3. A good question is (almost without exception) not about AI

I installed the Linear A keycaps on my Keyboardio Preonic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_A

#Preonic

A black ortholinear keyboard in a 12x5 grid, with two buttons and a knob at the top right and a butterfly logo on the top left. The key caps are the undeciphered "Linear A" character set, a writing system used by the Minoans of Crete between 1800 BC and 1450 BC. Some characters bear a resemblance to modern Latin characters like C or R. Others look like animals or more abstract shapes

"✨✨ Suggest more tabs for group" who is so disconnected from the act of thinking that they need firefox to suggest putting a tab in a specific group? are we really that hard up for places to cram in features we can call "AI"?
