ew.kuusela, post #20: Lounge question, no agenda: does anyone else keep a physical notebook for this rather than a file? Mine is more use than anything I have typed, and I cannot entirely explain why. That is one dataset and I would not build a rule on it. Go to post
That is true everywhere. The reference material that gets used is the material that answers a question you have at the moment you have it, and glamour has nothing to do with it.
j.habermann, post #25: Community norms: if you want to discuss how the community should work (not moderation decisions, which go in Meta) the Lounge is a place for that casual discussion. Go to post
Fine by me. I had wanted a stronger conclusion and there is not one available.
h.kjeldsen, post #82: Personal stories: if you want to talk about what led you to this compound, your journey, or how the change has affected your life, the Lounge is the place for that. This is the sort of thing the wiki should carry and currently does not. Go to post
Industry and supply chain: post about manufacturing, pharmaceutical economics, or market dynamics if you have something substantive to contribute.
Nicolaides, post #11: Adding a data point of agreement rather than a data point. Go to post
That reframing is the whole thing. The facts I already had.
cannula_trace, post #8: Lounge-level thought to close on: the measure of this place is that being wrong in public here is cheap. That is a design decision and it took work. Go to post
Newer drugs and mechanisms: when a new drug launches or a new mechanism is discovered, the Lounge is a place to discuss the news and speculate before hard data exists.
Lounge-level thought to close on: the measure of this place is that being wrong in public here is cheap. That is a design decision and it took work.
