Peter Saint-Andre: Opinions Weak and Strong
Continuing a thread that I started to explore earlier this year, I’d like to take a closer look at the intensity of opinions.

Pet peeve: on my work computer, 80% of my lobste.rs comments double-post because of some kind of missing deduplication logic. Then, I have to periodically go through all my threads to delete the duplicates. Sometimes one copy of the post will have 2 upvotes & the other 3.
