The question is how to turn it into a technical implementation.
We assume the situation is at least two people discussing and a moderator stepping in. Now the mod needs a button which makes the two write a shared conclusion. Lemmy could provide the means to write a "joint comment", where both can edit and both need to sign it off. How to incentivize them though? The button probably needs to block the thread, post, or accounts until the joint comment is published.
The gold standard for me would be "adversarial collaboration" as described by Scott Alexander here and here. The first describes a conflict about psychic psi powers research. The amazing twist is that both sides wrote a paper together. The second article describes a similar collaboration about fact-checking. Essentially, this is "debate until they reach an agreement" with the additional requirement that they publish a joint statement afterwards.
So, if you are in an intense discussion with somebody, the best you can do is to write a blog post together. It requires both of you to present the evidence in a neutral way and derive conclusions such that you both agree with the reasoning. The process will make you work out where exactly you disagree (the quality of the sources? different values? missing knowledge?).
Is that realistic though? Such a collaboration is much more effort than a reply to a comment which triggers me. It is the best way to make progress in the overall debate.
Is that the goal here though? We don't care so much about the result or progress of a debate but only to keep it civilized so everybody feels welcome to continue. An "unproductive" discussion is ok as long as all participants are nice to each other.
I just bought a used iPhone SE 2020 for 300€. The screen of my old Pixel 2 broke and its support ran out recently. Still a great phone otherwise. As a long-term Android user I miss a few things like SyncThing on iOS. However, with a strong focus on privacy, I'd say iOS wins over Android.
Pretzels are our default snack on the go. We just grab a few at the bakery and off we go. Mostly a southern Germany thing though.
For warm meals, we have Maultaschen. Simmer in broth for a few minutes and it's ready. In other parts of the world, there are variations of stuffed pasta.
AstraZeneca seems to make a very rare illness (thrombocytopenia) less rare. As it affects mostly younger women, giving those another vaccine instead is an appropriate measure to me.
I fear there is currently little reason to leave reddit. We need a scandal like the recent WhatsApp uproar which gave Signal and Telegram more users.
I don't see evidence for an imminent crash?
The post link can be in the body content.
I use the hosted version because the point of monitoring is that it alerts me when the rest of my stuff is down. You can self host it though.
Iterative development is how software development was done initially. Then there was a misunderstanding and Waterfall was invented. The DOD spread the idea that you should be finished with the design before you start implementation. I think in practice barely anybody really did Waterfall because of common sense.
Maybe Agile can be understood as the correction (or over-correction in many cases). What the movement celebrates as huge innovation is mostly a regression toward the mean.
