Commented this elsewhere on HN not that long ago, but...

One issue is what to say and not say, to solve this the three gates[0] are what I try (and admittedly fail miserably) to implement, though not in their original form.

I generally try for "Is it true", "Is it useful", "Is it kind" - in that order of precedence if they can not all be met.
