Ask HN: What about Think HN?

Often times when I have an idea about something I dare not submit it on "Ask HN". The reason for that is that I noticed that the tone of answers on Ask HN is mainly affirmative and definitive for the person writing an answer. Which makes it up for good debates about stuff, but not so much for constructive exchanges about burgeoning ideas. Wouldn't it be a good idea then to normalize some "Think HN" side channel, where ideas would be constructed together rather than assessed and answered ? from Hacker News: Front Page http://ift.tt/2DXMXvU via
