SoylentNews is people
SoylentNews
from the prevention-goes-a-long-way dept.
So, every once in awhile, if things have been quiet, I like to pop a post seeing what the general feelings of the community are towards the site, seeing what we could do better, etc. I think its been a few months since the last time I posted in Meta, so I think this is a good time to get a pulse on the community, and provide a venue to get any feedback (good or bad).
On the staff side, I know things have been relatively quiet over the summer due to most of us being busy with life and such, which is why we haven't made a major site upgrade since the original rehash upgrade at the end of May. For myself, I've been working at a new job, and dealing with a fair bit of non-Soylent related things to the point that I really only have the time or energy to post, and occasional check in, and I'd like to thank the rest of the staff, and mrcoolbp in particular for holding down the fort for me.
Anyway, in contrast to my usual posts, I'm going to cut this off here, and will be looking forward to your comments below.

I greatly enjoy the science articles, but I'm not generally informed enough to feel that I should (or want to) comment on them.

Ask questions even if you think they are too basic.
I'm very knowledgeable about certain science topics and answering questions/explaining concepts leads to better commentary and usually a broader discussion.

Mod parent up. If the summary is decent, it would be enough for those of us without the specific expertise to ask questions, and perhaps even read the linked piece. If I know people here, those with some expertise would be glad share some of it with the rest of us plebs.
