Busy day, can someone write a quick summary of the conversation so far?

That's where a good AI Forum Analyzer comes handy. A smart program which will scan all previous posts in a thread like this and produce a structured summary, accompanied with accurate statistics and multi-color pie charts:

1. Complaints (broken down into legitimate technical and editorial issues, and personal grievances)
For the latter group, the program would suggest easy remedies in forms of proven medications, yoga exercises or good wine recommendations

2. Emerging Viewpoints And Trends (such data could be monetized by selling it to camera companies, Facebook and Twitter)

3. Constructive Ideas And Suggestions for New Website Articles

. . . then (1) post all the comments that have not yet been posted and (2) close the thread because there is nothing more to be said.

There were some complaints on this thread and elsewhere about the writing style on the front page. I thought it would be helpful to post some guidelines:

That covers it in fine style, Professor Slobodan. Thank you!

Posting an article only once a week is another way to reduce errors.

The latest article couldn’t even get past the title without a misspelling (‘heavan’), and again in the second sentence (‘intern’ vs in turn). I gave up reading at that point. If the publisher still doesn’t care enough to respect the readers, why bother?

If you do read the introductions written by Josh Reichman you will find that not only are they full of misspellings they also have many grammatical mistakes. Worst of all, even if you ignore all the stupid errors, they are utterly meaningless rubbish and an insult to the intelligence of the readers.

JeffS · « **Reply #467 on:** March 15, 2019, 07:43:12 pm »

The two errors I mentioned above have been corrected. Guess I should have mentioned two more in the first paragraph that I just read. Pathetic.

What was the frequency in the past? I am asking as I didn’t pay much attention to the frequency, nor to the front page until recently.

That sounds pretty harsh. I wonder if you’d care to elaborate?

An ass can serve a useful purpose. You’re more a hemorrhoid.

Unacceptable abuse. Behave or be banned.

Ok, so "ass" is ok, but "hemorrhoid" is not.

This is good information.

I perhaps shouldn’t have said it. OTOH, I don’t have a repeated pattern of posting nothing but insulting comments, and I did use it as as a descriptor of behavior, not a pointed personal insult.

Maybe splitting hairs, and I apologize to Jeremy and site ownership if it was out of bounds, but look at my posting history and that of the person I was speaking to, and come to your own conclusions.
