Just want to say thank you for the absolutely amazing and generous comment! :)
shikwasa··on CSS Bed: Classless CSS themes to use as starting points in web development
I understand the "starting point" part but I find the emphasis on "classless" interesting: you basically have to introduce a non-element selector as soon as you want make even the smallest layout change.

For anything beyond a single page document, I find something like matcha.css (https://matcha.mizu.sh, you can even pick your custom build on the same page) a practical starting point if you want to stay close to the elements.

shikwasa··on Why do we need human mathematicians anymore?
The absence of such relationships given here are so many species is exactly the point being made by the author: there is no data to show that it would be safe, let along good, for us to surrender decision making to some more intelligent entity.

> I would expect that in the vast majority of combinations, those n species are not intelligent enough to make decisions for another species...

This kind of statement is very difficult to build discussions upon (not a criticism). "Vast majority", "intelligent enough" are both very difficult to quantify and there is too much subjectivity involved.

I think the quoted part is saying that given n species and the n * (n - 1) binary combinations possible, there are no examples of the said observation. It doesn't suggest "the set of intelligent species only [has] one member".
