@SankarGanesh your really not helping your case here.
 
tombull89
tombull89
you mean the cat? technically that's an animation rather than a video.
 
Raynos
Raynos
Making racists and insensitive jokes is different from posting off topic content.
 
ManjotSingh
ManjotSingh
Black cat animation is cool.
 
Sankar Ganesh
Sankar Ganesh
@tombull89 yes, what happened i was not able to chat in my own room infact, ask Manjot singh that reno posting too much videos and images in a techincal room
 
tombull89
tombull89
@SankarGanesh As Raynos said there's a big difference comparing someone to Hitler and posting off-topic material.

tombull89

@SankarGanesh Is that not self explanatory?
 
ManjotSingh
ManjotSingh
You too suspended @SankarGanesh
But you were only banned from the Android room only
in Android on Stack Overflow Chat, 43 mins ago, by Octavian Damiean
@SankarGanesh just so you know. I took away your write access in this room. What you wrote was very offending. That kind of messages are not welcome in here.
 
Sankar Ganesh
Sankar Ganesh
@tombull89 ok when i m get my access , is that i can ask moderator , why my account suspend , i just lost permission from android room to write i think, but what happened to my account suspensuon level;
 
ManjotSingh
ManjotSingh
Octavian didn't suspend from the chat I think so.
 
balpha
balpha
Your account was auto-suspended because a message of yours was flagged as offensive by enough users to be deleted

@SankarGanesh That might for some mins or hrs definitely

Great @SankarGanesh Your auto-suspension will be over within 15 sec.
 
Sankar Ganesh
Sankar Ganesh
@OctavianDamiean I m sorry , pls forgive me , i will accept my punishment tell me how long i have to wait, but if reno posted those images again in techincal room , i will point out you to action , pls tell me the punisment duration , i will accept my wrong
@ManjotSingh i hav been in stack for 10 months, but unforatne i kided reno in android room , what usually he did with images but i did in words, that's it, reno has freedom but others donot have such freedom
 
balpha
balpha
can you pleeeeease stop this "posting images in a technical room" crap?
 
ManjotSingh
ManjotSingh
but I'll get my write access in SO on June 23 @SankarGanesh
 
Sankar Ganesh
Sankar Ganesh
@balpha what , cannot get you
 
tombull89
tombull89
@SankarGanesh I think you are utterly failing to understand the difference between posting a cat (off-topic, frowened upon) and comparing someone to hitler (offensive, bannable).

@SankarGanesh look, we ain't machines. Users sometimes post funny stuff as well which is totally fine. Nowhere did I ever state that it is a problem to post such content in the Android room. Of course only if it isn't solely images and becoming spam, which it wasn't. The only person that made an issue out of it was you. As I told you I have no idea when you are going to get your access back but constantly asking for it is definitely not going to make you get it back any quicker
 
Sankar Ganesh
Sankar Ganesh
@tombull89 ok , i will correct it,
 
ManjotSingh
ManjotSingh
How much would it take to write that message(3 lines omg) Octavian?
 
Octavian Damiean
Octavian Damiean
not that long. I'm sure it is fully of typos and grammar mistakes. ;)
 
ManjotSingh
ManjotSingh
but It is understandable.
 
Sankar Ganesh
Sankar Ganesh
@OctavianDamiean ok No Problem , i understood, I will wait, i was feeling great that my Octavian has applied rule even to his best known frnd Sankar , Good Mate keep it up , :), I feel proud bcoz u are good in rules, rules not be missued for relationship, hand off mate

Charlie the Unicorn is a Flash animated short film and viral video directed, produced, animated, and written by Jason Steele of independent film company FilmCow. The film follows the life of Charlie, a lethargic unicorn, and two other unicorns who bring him on an allegedly magical adventure to the mythical "Candy Mountain". The film was envisioned by independent animator Jason Steele of production company FilmCow. Steele originally created the video as a flash animation test for his mother; the video was partially credited to her and was released by her under the username "TypeQueen" on ...

Q: Clear all string members from object in C#

@jcolebrand And you have a problem with using a dictionary??
 
jcolebrand
jcolebrand
@Hogan no, but if you have custom objects, they could have a string associated with them and other meta-data.
a dictionary, as I understand it, is like a hashtable but for any datatype
 
Hogan
Hogan
yeah... key / value pair
(where value can be an object)
 
jcolebrand

so this is just a convoluted form of that pattern
anybody that has 500 anything that aren't in a list, idk ... I shake my head to begin with

I don't think so... it is just a jumble of 500 things

Q: Emulate a TSQL sequence via a stored procedure

HoganI have a requirement to create a stored procedure which emulates a TSQL sequence. That is it always gives an increasing distinct integer value on every call. In addition, if an integer is passed in it should return that value if there has never been a result greater or the next highest integer ...

tsql sql-server-2008 locking
@jcolebrand I don't I wear penny loafers
 
jcolebrand
jcolebrand
3:29 PM
@Hogan you're killing me smalls
there's at least 18 definitive ways to tie a pair of shoes, in addition to wearing penny loafers etc
Ergo: Just because he wants to do it that particular way doesn't mean it's the wrong way to solve the problem, just that it makes the least sense to you.
It's still entirely valid (which makes it a correct way to solve the problem)
Now, I agree with you that it's dumb, but that wasn't really the question was it. The question was if it was valid.

@jcolebrand I'm of a split mind on this. I don't think the question should be deleted... but if it was a project I was managing I would look at the requirements and use a better object model -- unless I hear of a use case where this makes sense. Of course, that won't happen.

@Hogan yes, you are attacking this as tho it were your codebase to be maintained. It's not. Let it go. It's a valid design even if it code-stinks to high heaven. It's just code.
You can't force people to be better programmers.
You can only guide them and offer advice.
 
Hogan
Hogan
Exactly
 
Grace Note
Grace Note
@Hogan When I once started on a particular project, I used separate members instead of a dictionary so that I could use Property access like x.ServantName.
I wisened up and switched to a dictionary (and also stored it all in an XML file later on), but point is, it may not be a wise use case, but it's still a use.

@GraceNote Yeah, I guess I'm just having a hard time thinking of a use case where you'd have that many fields and also need to clear them. More of a curiosity thing than anything else.

To which even Kieren (who still states it's a valid question) suggests "Use an indexer with a proper container".

Right... he needs an object for each tab.

jeff wanted me to disallow searching for "easter egg", and I felt a plain "forbidden" was a little boring.

So we should /blame Jeff huh?

Q: what are programming languages written in?

usealbarazerThis might sound odd, but what is the 'language' that programming languages are written in? Is it like binary, or some lower level programming language? I just can't comprehend :-|
