   @zachleat also feels like we're having the same debate we had like five years ago, with little hope any new information will come to light.

      @jaredwhite @zachleat tbh this is a Bad Place furore. The entire platform lives for folks who feed on outrage, bigotry and closed minded thinking. Not discussion, empathy and openness.

      I have kinda given up on the current crop of frameworks. My hope now is we can teach a new generation a better way, but to do that we'll have to find time to actually do that outreach and build new foundations of learning material. I see lots of folks here doing that though so hope still abounds maybe?

   @zachleat I just read that Mt Everest is having a growth spurt. Seems that is mountain peaks grow further from each other while that just means that sandy beaches get closer... right?

   @zachleat I think it’s more likely we’ve observed what was there more clearly
