#5719·Dennis HackethalOP revised 3 days agoReiterating/refining #3904: There should be a graphical indication for pending criticisms. The dropdown line should be red if the comment it leads to is a pending criticism.
This says nothing about the yellow color of the criticisms pills, which I think Tyler is saying are too harsh on the eyes.
That doesn’t mean the pill has to say yellow. Too harsh.
That doesn’t mean the pill has to stay yellow. Too harsh.
#5710·Dennis HackethalOP, 3 days agoWould avoid putting it in a tooltip. Best to keep it for accessibility. Communicating only with lines and colors is too little information.

#5712·Dennis HackethalOP revised 3 days agoReiterating/refining #3904: I think the yellow "Criticism of" bubbles can and should be replaced by a graphical indication that is much easier on the eyes. The dropdown line can be made red if the comment it leads to is a criticism, and the bubble on the criticism can be eliminated. Reading the yellow bubble to get the idea # it is referring to, then searching the ideas above for the matching # is inelegant (even if it is usually the one right above).
And dimmer red for refuted criticisms, brighter red for pending ones! Default gray for comments.

Would get alternating dim and bright depending on insertion order. Confusing!

It’s more in line with refute.us if non-pending criticisms are neutralized, ie gray as well.

Tried it – unfortunately, there aren’t enough shades of red to easily tell the difference.

is red, which would cause visual confusion.
Not red anymore. Gray as of 5b3358f.

Best to put additional information in a revision of the target idea, not as a comment. Comments aren’t for chronological addition of information like on X or Reddit.
#4832·Tyler Mills, 6 months agoThe link could be put in a new tooltip, or something. Or kept as is, just without the yellow bubble, frankly.

#4829·Tyler Mills, 6 months agoIs it handy? I have yet to want to open the criticized idea in a new tab. I have only ever wanted to scroll up to see it, which is slightly irksome with the current yellow bubble hashtag-matching method. And when the criticized idea is clearly immediately above, the yellow bubbles serve no real purpose, only add visual clutter.

I do that on occasion and like being able to do it. Other users may, too.
#4768·Dennis HackethalOP revised 6 months agoNeed time indicators again, for when an idea was posted, like we used to have. But shorter: something like ‘1h’

#2712·Dennis HackethalOP, 11 months agoNow that diffs are formatted, they don’t omit unchanged lines anymore.

Ruby example:
def criticized? ideapending_criticisms(idea).any?enddef pending_criticisms ideacriticisms(idea).filter { |c| pending_criticisms(c).none? }enddef criticisms ideachildren(idea).filter(&:criticism?)end
JS example (h/t ChatGPT):
function criticized(idea) {return pendingCriticisms(idea).length > 0;}function pendingCriticisms(idea) {return criticisms(idea).filter(c => pendingCriticisms(c).length === 0);}function criticisms(idea) {return children(idea).filter(c => c.isCriticism);}

#4013·Dennis HackethalOP, 8 months agoThere’s a small issue related to previewing changes in code blocks: even when there are no changes yet, if the code overflows horizontally, the scroll shadow is shown through DOM manipulation, which in turn triggers the diffing library into thinking the user made a change.
So then the same code block is shown without any changes, under the ‘Changes’ tab, which is confusing. It should still just say ‘No changes’.
Fixed as of 7134d27.
#4024·Dennis HackethalOP revised 8 months agoThe diff view can’t handle the removal/replacement of entire code blocks yet. The removed block looks broken, the new block doesn’t show at all. See activity 3207 in dev.
Fixed as of b2a2a32 at the latest.
