    This situation becomes obvious when you want to use the search box to retrieve old conversations. I use Discord every day, so I fall in the first category in your post. However, ev…

    These two people are respectively 22 and 28 years old. They have spent their time in cyber-crime environments since their teenage years. Respectively, a third of his life for the f…

    It is clear by the mention of "several orders of magnitude" that we are talking about a database which fits in a few MB of disk space on a machine with a few GB of RAM. If the inte…

    Basically, you are presented with a small-scale (possibly toy) problem: the database consists of 50k entries and fits in 3 MB of disk space. Then the interviewee starts wondering o…

    For instance, it is discussed in this press article [1] published in 2016 and available in French. It is mentioned that nuclear power costs 60€/MWh, compared to 80€/MWh for wind po…

    The government policy for a reduction to 50% is not based on issues with nuclear power itself. As far as I have seen, there are mainly 2 reasons mentioned in the public debate: i) …

    If you are a company whose business is advertisement, you should not get a free pass to *require* *unnecessary* personally identifiable information from your target audience. There…

    An introvert is "a typically reserved or quiet person who tends to be introspective and enjoys spending time alone" [1]. So I agree with you that it is surprising to be a "complete…

    In practice, this has not happened yet, and it has been 3 years since the forum inception. One obstacle which I forgot to mention is that an account cannot report posts or warn oth…

    That is post-modernism [1], the tendencies of our era. Boghossian's commentary [2] published in 1996 is still relevant these days, though it would need to be put in context. > Post…

    It depends on the scale. I can vouch that crowd-moderation works fine for a small forum (~ 1000 members) which I am part of. And there is no karma system. You get to report posts (…

    Here are a few examples of human figures from 30,000 years ago [1], and 35,000 to 40,000 years ago [2, 3]. For comparison, the eroded camel sculptures are from 8,000 years ago at b…
