Comment Post #277287 And if the mask does change the sound, so? You can't change the sound after it exits the _shofar_? What about women (or anyone) who hear it through a curtain? Is that not the same thing?

Comment Post #277077 I'd appreciate it if you could import https://judaism.stackexchange.com/q/15857/170 with its answer. I asked it, and I've since set a bounty (a Mi Yodeya way of trying to get more attention to it) on it three times -- but it still haven't received a real answer. I hope it'll get one here.

Comment Post #277055 I don't think you need the license to copy your own content. (Unless maybe you're worried someone will claim you're not the same user there as here and use that as a reason to delete this.) But IANAL.

Comment Post #276965 You might want to avoid calling it "JC", commonly used among religious Jews to avoid naming a certain 2000-year-old man explicitly.

Comment Post #276920 For what it's worth, there are various customs re what point in the prayer to add _Avinu Malkenu_ at. Some do so before confession, others after confession before face-falling, others after face-falling and _Shomer Yisrael_ before _Vaanachnu_, others after all of the usual supplications.

Comment Post #276907 To answer this question, one must have knowledge of all other religions ever practiced anywhere. I don't think _anyone_ is so equipped.

Comment Post #276897 The language of scholarship in Judaism for millennia has been not modern Hebrew but… I'm not sure what it's called. In any event, _that_ is the language more likely known to Jews outside of Israel who don't know English but are interested in asking questions about Judaism. Modern Hebrew is more likel...

Comment Post #276688 You say "we both finish a Masechta together". Do you mean "almost finish"? Doesn't the finishing happen at the _siyum_ itself?

Comment Post #276598 I wonder whether Joshua 5:1 is relevant. The fact that it's there at all -- it seems out of place -- may (I'm conjecturing) be to answer just your question. _Edit:_ Oh, never mind, I see Rashi there says the verse is referring to the western side of the Jordan.

Comment Post #276521 @manassehkatz re your last comment: I agree that if we're to have a Code Golf SE -type sandbox then it should be a category of posts. (But I don't think we need one.) My "one post should suffice for it" comment was about the kind of sandbox described in part of this answer: one used for trying out fo...

Comment Post #276362 I like [this approach](https://meta.codidact.com/a/276537/276541) as applied to Purim Torah: It should be a tag, not a category.

Comment Post #276544 I don't know any kabbalah, but, for what it's worth, "זעיר אנפין" is almost a word-for-word translation of "קצר אפים", which sounds a lot like the opposite of "ארך אפים", which means "patience".

Comment Post #276521 I like the idea of a sandbox but I think one post should suffice for it. Or one question and its answers and comments, let's say. So it can be in our meta category.

Comment Post #276450 "This also means that pages on this site should gradually start to be listed on Sefaria as having linked to specific bits of scripture." I didn't know Sefaria has such a feature. Will it really work even though these are JS-based links?

Comment Post #276422 I would love there to be automatic linking of some sort without a userscript. This would be useful not only on Judaism but on any Codidact site that has a glossary -- or indeed that has other sorts of canonical references. `It's considered [[muktzeh]]`, `with a [[merge sort]]`, `first [[separate the ...

Comment Post #276424 I know there's already a subject-matter category (meta), but I nonetheless am very wary of having more subject-matter categories (like Hebrew). Where does it end, then? How are categories different from tags? I think anything that fits as a tag in Judaism Q&A should be included in the Judaism Q&A cat...

Comment Post #276379 I should note that I meant loops of two varieties: A is a descendant of itself, or A is a descendant of B via two different routes. Even the latter case may lead to bugs if care isn't taken; e.g. the same post may appear twice in search results for B.

Comment Post #276379 That sounds about right to me fwiw. I think one additional requirement would be that the code either enforces no tag loops or accounts for their existence when (e.g.) searching.

Comment Post #276362 I think Purim Torah can be Q&A or post-only just like real Torah can. How to organize it, then, I'm not sure. It seems a bit over the top to have two Purim Torah categories.
