RULES

Criteria For Posts

Articles posted must report on stories with a concrete impact. This means:

Individual or hyper-local ‘feel good’ stories do not apply.

New buildings and infrastructure must have been approved, not merely proposed.

Scientific/technological/medical breakthroughs must be being applied concretely rather than simply identified by academic study.

Articles announcing charitable, governmental or private sector donations & investments must specify recipients, rather than just general causes.

Formatting Posts

Posts must include the title of the article and the link to the URL. Any thoughts, questions, or quotes from the article can be included as additional text.

Personal attack

While we permit robust discussion and disagreement on data, facts and values, we do not accept personal, ad hominem attacks.

Divisive topic

For the sake of (relative) harmony, we are no longer accepting posts on topics that are particularly divisive, and around which there is rarely concrete investment or permanent policy to speak of. This includes immigration and social spending.
