@helenvholmes @wesbos the example is science. I don't feel a need to be "kind" to anti-vaxxers. I will be civil with them, though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos regardless, civility is enforced with an iron fist at Stack. What people perceive as "kind" can vary, though

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos can you provide evidence of unkindness? Still waiting for links..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos @tawshmcd you're telling Stack to build Khan Academy. Which they could do.. given enough time..

Jeff Atwood

@helenvholmes @wesbos @tawshmcd "because you are a beginner, go to the beginner classroom" doesn't feel weird to me in the slightest

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos @tawshmcd doesn't scale -- experts find that stuff boring. Answering the same question over and over .. teachers paid

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos @tawshmcd but if they don't know what to search for.. they need a mentor / live chat / real classroom

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos @tawshmcd the idea is that 99% of the stuff beginners would need is already asked/answered

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos @tawshmcd and for those beginners who need dupe questions.. they need a mentor / chat

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@helenvholmes @wesbos @tawshmcd we see skill splits, just like high school / college: http://t.co/CQVqikQeHS and http://t.co/onCOCS5yrv
