I think everyone saw this one coming...

...although the article is a tad misleading. if a user reports a message, the message (and a bit of chat history) is sent to facebook mods, as it probably should be.

Probably not - if something gets as popular as these it isn't likely they're going to be forgotten anytime soon, least of all the Hunger Games.

Many of them will probably grow into 'classics' in the decades following, and it's a bit rare to see them just fade into obscurity, but it happens.

It seems like Koch wants to keep pushing consensus to privatize the postal service by weakening funding for it, which is, either intentionally or unintentionally, economically harming it. I'm on the fence over whether 'kill' is the right word for this though.

This is awesome. I ended up just removing random bits to make it look wrong, but somehow it always ended up looking pretty stunning. I think the shadows also add a lot to the scene.

I also made a pretty good-looking two layered structure with it: (pic https://ibb.co/vVbtG52)

The inversion principle is a great mental model in my opinion. The best way I can sum it up in the most basic way is instead of thinking "What can I do to [achieve goal]?", think "What is preventing me from [achieving goal]?".

If some of you like this, I suggest delving into the 'mental model' rabbit hole. There's some pretty inspiring stuff on it.

By 'MediaWiki' I'm referring to the wikis and wiki farms that use MediaWiki or a variant of it. This includes:

- Wikimedia

- FANDOM

- Gamepedia

- Miraheze

FANDOM is the most massive wiki farm with over 360,000+ (as of 2016) wikis[1], which I'd give at lowest an estimate of 60% of the total number of wikis on the net, and is 88th on the Alexa rankings.[2] FANDOM is a wiki powerhouse, and you bet it uses MediaWiki.

Excluding WikiHow, I have never seen a wiki not use MediaWiki. As one of the guys that hops across many different wikis and wiki farms doing automated work, I cannot stress this enough.

Hmm. I'll go check it out.

The main thing I'm worried about with other wiki software (including Wiki.js) is that if it's compatible with gadgets, userscripts and all of the other neat tools already available.

It doesn't have to be MediaWiki, or even a distant relative of it. It just has to work with them.

From what I've discovered it does seem to be a rather simple and easy-to-use platform, if a bit too basic.

I myself wouldn't use it, but it seems like a much-welcome platform for those without too much experience on the technical side.

Based on the trailer footage it seems like there's not really any options for customisation either, which is a big con for me (although this prejudice is based on the trailer footage and might not be true in the platform itself).

The comments system was well-implemented, though. Credit where it's due.

I mean, I appreciate the effort put into building this, but external tools like AWB, and userscripts/gadgets (plus a host of other goodies) can't be accessed over globally if it's on a completely different software. Almost every wiki on the net uses MediaWiki for good reason.

I will be happy if this Wiki.js platform does have compatibility with these features, though.

If it doesn't run on MediaWiki, I'm not into it.
