--- End quote ---

So what kind of certification did you have in mind?

--- End quote ---

Maybe the type that (in conjunction with medics), the police can do for a few days and the courts indefinitely?

In California that is Welfare and Institutions Code Section 5150. Otherwise called a 'fifty-one fifty'.  72 hour involuntary hold.

The new management, Mr. Lizard (praise be upon his scaliness), has mandated a 50/50 male to female ratio.
Someones got to do it.

--- End quote ---

I'm happy to do 50% of the females.

Or have I misunderstood the mission?

Ok Mr Lizard, that can be done two ways, the easy way or the hard way. The easy way is deleting 90% of accounts.

--- Quote from: Brumby on February 23, 2022, 02:06:40 am ---If asked to give a formal description of what the "Thanks" system on the EEVblog is all about, I would struggle.  Certainly it is not a definitive measure of expertise, but does that mean it needs to be altered or removed?

It evolved as an alternative to Like as a better acknowledgement of a members contributions.
--- End quote ---
Indeed ... and that's probably the best and most concise statement I could ever expect.  It does leave the merit of what is worthy of acknowledgement as being rather subjective, but that is part of - IMO - why it has survived as well as it has.


--- Quote ---Would you prefer Like or a return to +1 and  :-+ ?

--- End quote ---
Aaaagggghhhh!  No.

Just because I see that something does not have a precise, universal, unambiguous, unanimously accepted definition doesn't mean I want to change it.

Why even go there?   :-//
