It's great the bluefeet is becoming CM, but not so great for the mod flag queue. She handles tons of flags from what I've heard, maybe the best ever at handling them. So now that the andrewbarber?, thelizardwhosenameisbill?, and that animusonguy? are all not mods, and we only got 3 new mods, and now with bluefeet getting re-assigned/promoted, there is going to be a major traffic jam in mod flag queue... right?
@Unihedron They don't need to. The election was for 3 mods. The election maintained the previous number of mods. It wasn't to increase the number of mods.
Actually...are we allowed poke bluefeet any more? She hasn't officially started yet, so that "Employees will never be poked with a sharp stick" hasn't kicked in yet. Right?
Brad had a post about about more mods vs more community work
@poke - I've talked about this before in more detail: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/185247/… , but simply adding a pile of moderators isn't a great solution. We don't want the site to be run by a cabal of superpowered users, but instead to make sure that the community can manage itself. Figuring out ways of letting the community handle flagged posts is a better long-term strategy than just pouring on moderators. — Brad Larson ♦Feb 16 at 16:52

@Bart it definitely is, but doesn't Hans Passant suggest that it's useful in some way?
No, but the system will find them. If you tag with [bottleneck] then very high odds that Mike Dunlavey will see the question on his front page. — Hans PassantApr 11 at 0:28
I personally take what Hans says on Meta with a grain of salt ;) But if you wish I can poke a little bit of life into that question with either an answer or a bounty.
my ex-boss changed his directadmin passwords (that I made with random generator) to "admin" and then skypes me that his sites are no longer working -.-"
I filed this bug report on Meta SO some time ago. So far there was not much response and @NathanTuggy suggested to flag for migration to Meta SE. I think that would make sense if the issue could be reproduced on other sites as well. Can I motivate someone to give it a try?
Most questions regarding JavaScript have been answered or even covered in depth online in blogs. Especially by people like Resig and Crockford.
If I flag something and it remains pending for longer than a week, does that mean there is some sort of internal review or discussion taking place with how to respond to it?
@TravisJ I'm pretty proud of my highest voted answer (git). It probably was “at the right time at the right place”. It brings in some decent passive reputation.
I don't have a userscript for chat.meta only chat.so
I should really modify it
@TimWolla - 160 is a good score :) I would suggest expanding on that answer just a little for a couple reasons. It has a lot of exposure so expanding on it will help more people. A slight expansion will bump it on the active list of questions giving it even more exposure. As it is already helpful, giving more of an explanation or some examples will probably lead to even more votes.
As you have described, pretty much any check that can be performed in ->i can be performed within the function itself, but then again, any check performed by contracts can, for the most part, be performed within functions themselves. Encoding the information into a contract provides a few advanta...
Another user mass-editing stuff stackoverflow.com/users/4897144/…, mostly adding *vba tags, is this good ? bad ? should I flag for mod ? Will leave a "please fix all other problems with the questions" comment.
I'm happy to announced that this site has been cleared for graduation… congratulations!
Unfortunately, there has been a long backlog of sites waiting for their custom site design, so rather than waiting for that backlog to clear, we are going to start moving ahead and hold the first community-ba...
@Yes I feel like sites are graduating so much faster than design work is actually being done that there's going to be a pretty ridiculous backlog from the deficit.

Weird. Bio and chem got their design, but no election announcement yet. Blender... The other way around.
@Undo Do you want to do the burnination request on meta, or do you want me to? (there's no wiki, and 6 questions) confidential-information

@Andy Actually they haven't graduated yet - that was just. an announcement. And SE backtracked on that idea, bringing site design back into the process: meta.networkengineering.stackexchange.com/a/440
I am confused about what the Continue Statement exactly does.
I did a little research and this is what I found:
Forces transfer of control to the controlling expression of the smallest enclosing do, for, or while loop.
I am not sure what that means, and when we should use it. Any help?
You're getting alot of down votes because this is a basic question which the folks here think you should be finding out in basic documentation. They're scared to tell you this themselves because they're afraid you'll stalk them and down vote their questions and answers. Yeah it's frigged up, but that's stack overflow — Dan G36 secs ago
