Maybe your compass rose is a better representation of what we’re often trying to do here*.

Did you forget to write a footnote you were planning to write?

Maybe. I guess that with "your compass rose" he means my avatar, but I have no idea what he thinks it represents - it is actually just the flag of my main con-nation, the Elven Nation.

There's no such thing as 'safe' in cybersecurity, there's only 'too much of a hassle to bother with'.

the advantage of conlanging,
is that it's still possible to practice with pencil and paper,
two things that are typically difficult to hack...

The CBB is now back to normal (it is sometimes slow to respond, though, but so is the ZBB, and many other web sites, due to bot traffic), and I have revised my decision to leave it, though I won't post very much there.

I’m sure your avatar is what I meant by “your compass rose”.
But I no longer have any idea why I put the asterisk in “here*”.

maybe because the compass rose has the same shape as the asterisk
(even though it has 8 branches and the asterisk 5 (and yet 6 on my keyboard))...

but... you've put an asterisk after here again...
