    Calculated statistics (ratios, etc) for stats pages

    Both values are presented individually and I don't think the exact ratio tells you much more than eyeballing it does. That said it'd be trivial to implement, so if you think it helps, why not? Same as above, except this time it seems misleading on its own to me due to its high dependence on...

    These last two posts describe the entirety of my writing process. Except I don't have any deadline, so calling it writing is a bit of a stretch.

    Writing Prompt Feeling ashamed

    What? And the way I see it, a flawed setup isn't the only possible cause. People change, and nobody can guarantee people you appreciate now will have much common ground with you years down the line, without that being anyone's definite fault. At that point, children you might be raising...

    Writing Prompt Feeling ashamed

    There is nothing wrong, this is how marriages work. But I suppose this is a writing prompt, so I have to provide a piece for fairness sake: How could I turn out to be such a weakling? To bind her with petty tricks and care for a child's life rather than myself, oh how far I have fallen. She'd...

    Story idea I struggle to write

    Even if you're not an intricate planner like Hans, I think it's immensely helpful for motivation to have concrete milestones you're working towards. There's no need to stick to them if you come up with better along the way, but open ended "these characters in that situation" plots, which is the...

    Highlight and Ctrl+C protection

    The issue with images isn't the copy vulnerability. Screen readers cease to work, as do most possibilities to override the site theme/font on the client, which will be a minor inconvenience for most, but certain impairments can make reading a nightmare without. Many browsers employ adaptive...

    The frequency of AU/OC/reader per word of synopsis isn't high enough here to make this query meaningful here.

    Writing Two writing tips

    If your frame of reference is cultivation, definitely. But in terms of general writing, I find "introducing one character before moving on to the next" to be ill advice, with slow being similar. If you can portray characters as they're changing something, or in interaction with others, why not...

    Now Live! ScribbleHub Explorer – An AI-Powered Novel Recommendation Engine: Feedback Needed!

    It should be similar in structure to the existing interfaces, but my point is that if you care about crawling and its load impact in proportion to how much time you spent elaborating it, I'd say take no response from Tony as a no. Cloudflare and similar measures (that then get turned off again...

    Now Live! ScribbleHub Explorer – An AI-Powered Novel Recommendation Engine: Feedback Needed!

    If server load is your concern, I'd try to work out an API solution with Tony, or leave it be. If you can pull the relevant data in batches without the html to bloat (perhaps even filtering for recent changes) the stress should become minimal. As for the design itself, I fear that the model...

    Why so much face slapping? Why so many pointless conflicts? … a bit of a rant.

    Cathartic entertainment. A surrogate who crushes petty and serious opposition alike, unquestioned (aside from aforementioned petty people for their own designs) and unrivaled. "But you also did something wrong" and "nice try upstart" would pose unsatisfying roadblocks. There's no success in...
