@dowodenum you've made me want to watch raiders of the lost ark again.
@alex @socjuswiz this is great
@andreas they had a warrant
@wjmaggos I don't think getting rid of "Cuties" is stifling free expression

The replies to this tweet are crazy.

@wjmaggos I don't know that the problems that need to be discussed are generally technical. They tend to be more about values and trade offs than straight what's the right answer sort of questions. I think its more important to have average people discussing them with an open mind than technocrats having sterile debate
@wjmaggos Wouldn't this system make it more difficult for "non-expert" people to contribute to scientific or engineering fields? Ideally arguments should be evaluated by their merits and not by the credentials of the author
