Community guidelines

We moderate every comment by hand (with a little help from automated triage). These are the rules we use.

Be kind. Disagreement is fine — contempt isn't. Critique ideas, not people.

Stay relevant. Comments should add something to the post they're on. Off-topic, promotional, or spam comments get rejected.

No personal info. Don't post phone numbers, home addresses, license plates, or anything else that could identify a private person without consent.

We have final say. We may reject a comment without explaining why. Repeat offenders get banned, and banned accounts have all queued comments rejected at once.
