How would you notify participants of changes to the privacy setting?

Preview links of discussions should show the name of the discussion being linked.

If the discussion owner accidentally removes someone and then adds them back right away, it sucks if all the associated records are still gone.

#3101​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized1Archived

What if they still have subscriptions or bookmarks in that discussion?

#3099​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized1Archived

Need a search form per discussion.

#3088​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized1Archived

But then invitees might not put as much effort into those discussions.

#3081​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized1Archived

But that sucks. Maybe someone works hard and submits a bunch of ideas only to lose access to them all.

#3079​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized2Archived

Permanent access: once added, you can’t remove them.

#3075​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized1Archived

They could keep read-only access to the discussion but can’t add new ideas or change existing ideas.

#3074​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized1Archived

They could keep access to their own ideas but not see others’.

#3073​·​Dennis HackethalOP, 10 months ago​·​CriticismCriticized1Archived

What happens if you add a user to a private discussion, they submit a bunch of ideas, and then you remove them?

My critique of David Deutsch’s The Beginning of Infinity as a programmer. In short, his ‘hard to vary’ criterion at the core of his epistemology is fatally underspecified and impossible to apply.

Deutsch says that one should adopt explanations based on how hard they are to change without impacting their ability to explain what they claim to explain. The hardest-to-change explanation is the best and should be adopted. But he doesn’t say how to figure out which is hardest to change.

A decision-making method is a computational task. He says you haven’t understood a computational task if you can’t program it. He can’t program the steps for finding out how ‘hard to vary’ an explanation is, if only because those steps are underspecified. There are too many open questions.

So by his own yardstick, he hasn’t understood his epistemology.

My critique of David Deutsch’s The Beginning of Infinity as a programmer. In short, his ‘hard to vary’ criterion at the core of his epistemology is fatally underspecified and impossible to apply.

He says one should adopt explanations based on how hard they are to change while still explaining what they claim to explain. The hardest-to-change explanation is the best and should be adopted. But he doesn’t say how to figure out which is hardest to change.

Then people could occasionally check the second tab for ideas they think they can rationally hold but actually can’t. And then they can work on addressing criticisms. A kind of ‘mental housekeeping’ to ensure they never accidentally accept problematic ideas as true.
