Earlier quoted context omitted.

I wonder if the Dutch Strategy might work for a link aggregator: explicitly provide a well-signposted "front page", where the rabble congregates and the groupthink is at its Grundyest, yet implicitly expect any non-Septemberist discussions to occur well away from those few sacrificial links?

Looks like we (or just i?) missed this discussion on the frontpage https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42502659 (Why did you call this dutch strategy, did Dijkstra use it? Ah you mean the oudekerk? Straathoertje?)

I see, you meant the Dutch defence? Sorry zero chess knowledge here..

As a side effect you may observe that PhD cred'd professional designers (architects) are about as rare as nonsocialist(?) "Democratic Republics" (DRC?)

Sorry, "dutch strategy" because the good burghers of Amsterdam, Rotterdam, etc. realised that although sailors have deplorable* morals, the burgher's prosperity depended upon having many sailors transiently around, so the burgher's solution was to create neighbourhoods catering to vice, with the idea that it would be tolerated there, and specifically there — far from the "good" neighbourhoods where their silk-skirted patent-leather-shod daughters hung out.

* we've already touched upon LaSalle(?)'s riposte to Bonaparte, right?

Haha first stab was closer then

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Wallen#History*

I hear that it's still a question of which came first, De Oude Kerk or De Wallen

*CMI gets a mention, it's where LaSalle would have been practically deployed as a direct commissar of the Man?

Recall also a protodiscussion of standardization of artillery in the revolutionary army vs navy?

excellent! "This suited everyone including the authorities."

(now I'll have to check to see if health checks occurred under the ancien regime, or if Bonaparte introduced them here as well)

direct commissar: yes, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41947667

odd, the coastal artillery seems to have been organisationally army but supplied and staffed by navy...
