      I'm one of those people that tell people to be specific. There are TONS of ways things can be interpreted, especially "simple questions". The chances of you getting a completely unrelated answer is gonna be much higher if you don't properly specify your questions. If you want answers that can actually help, just specify your questions in the first place. It's so bothersome to have to ask 50 different questions in order to make a relevant answer.

      @@HackersSun The point is to take a random question, then extrapolate from it and go to any other subject that's loosely related, forming connections and spreading cool facts and knowledge. It's to me a great way to actually be able to think about the world, to jump from subject to subject and identify links to broader your understanding of things without hyper-focusing on a specific domain to the detriment of others that would help you see the bigger picture and understand the former better.
      This way of thinking also possesses the monumental advantage of forcing you to always imagine and rethink, you won't be stuck in old ideas because you'll constantly have to think on the go while expressing yourself, making new connections, seeing flaws in old ones, integrating new elements every time you speak with someone... which will allow you to get as close to the truth on many subjects as humanly possible.

      Quora exists in a weird space. It was a fast-growing startup with huge sums of investments, but then it just sorta... hasn't changed. Like, the company is old as hell now (in startup terms). It never went public. I don't recall it making many (if any) acqusitions. The CEO (and I assume other founding members) are still at the company instead of cashing out and jumping ship for their next venture, which is odd given how young he was when he started the company. It just didn't follow the trajectory of every other similar startup. I'm not even sure I understand what the company *is* anymore. Is the premise that they've grown big enough that they have SEO dominance on Google search and thus just rake in revenue from that? If so, it seems like a weak foundation (relying on a platform) if Google changed up their algorithm enough, and also if Reddit ever made their search better I'd bet it would decimate Quora.

      Yeah. For example for a question like "why is banana yellow", there will be pseudointelectuals answering "well, achtually, banana is not yellow, because light bounces of surfaces, and what you see is what the object isn't, so banana isn't yellow, bla bla bla.."
