So yesterday I made a phone call to inform about a house up for renting, it had only just been put online. I couldn't make an appointment yet, they'd call me back as soon as possible.
Today I saw the price has changed from 625 to 675 euros per month -_-
Been on the hunt for months so I can move out of this tiny apartment and it's just so exhausting to deal with all the shit that goes on
@Stijn I got this response several times when I was on the hunt for an house I already sold that particular house now 21 times, in the last 15 minutes. But that was mid 90's
Come to Geneva. There you go to a great place to rent. They ask you if you like it. And if you do, you can put your name on the list ... skipping the first 3 pages of people who have signed up already.
I got lucky when I found my place. But I know people who want to move and have been trying for years. It doesn't help that the UN is there as well, and that they pay 50% of the rent for employees. Meaning prices just go up because all of a sudden 2k in rent means you can actually afford 4k.
I'd really love to move, but it would just take a shitload of time and effort
(And of course the financial sector here has no problem with the prices either)
A couple I worked with actually hired a company to find them a place. They ended up spending 5k to find an apartment.
@Stijn No, I mean he had two comments - one where he just linked to the dup with its title, and another added automatically when he voted; he deleted the latter.
@bluefeet Does SE have any experience with database migrations on lots of data and no downtime? If so, I might post a question to MSE about that. I'm particularly interested in handling unexpected interruptions on datasets with up to 100 million records
I was going to suggest you finally make it a proposal. But then again, chat history shows that I was fed up and made that suggestion in July of last year as well.
I'm not confident in getting a decent reception on meta posts. But this is a super-reasonable suggestion, it shouldn't get me tarred, feathered, and rode out of town on a rail... should it?\

Obviously, any new features that get created might influence the final design, so we're holding off on doing that work until we know what, if anything, might get added.

I don't want to disappoint you but at least one designer recently left the company so that wouldn't help the backlog of sites that wait for designs either
@Shokhet you could do it with a sede query though, if you don't mind missing results from the past week worst case. I'd throw one together for you but on my phone.
I'm looking for a particular question that I answered myself, because I want to find a meta-discussion in the comments about whether that's okay (spoiler: it is).
Has anyone written a query that will find those questions for me?
Everything seems to work right now (except SO chat at work - which I've mentioned to @Shog9 on 2 occasions prior, this being the 3rd) - and I don't mind the status quo too badly, so I'm going to let it be for now.
@ShadowWizard Yes... but at least, that is much more useful than a daily "brews coffee" message. If you want to spend your time writing such a bot, go ahead, but I don't think any Smokey dev is going to code it, or accept the code if you write it for us.

BTW, after using it for quite a while I can say that I don't dislike the new top bar @Shog, though I still prefer if it won't be sticky. So, looks like you were right, it's not as bad as I thought it would be.
Don't be silly; everyone who liked the envelope rage-quit after we removed it. Every single one of them. Thus, the only people left using the site are those that hated it.
Same for folks who hated the not-quite-black top-bar.
I miss the fake specular highlights that were so popular back in the early 2000s. Apple used them in their chat, Cingular (now AT&T) used them in their ads, Windows XP used them on everything...
Everything looked like it was made of plastic, and shined to a glossy finish
Looking at the Help link on Stack Exchange Data explorer, I don't see any way to create a horizontally scrollable histogram. I want to develop queries that could let's say, show how many votes I got for answers for various tags at various points along a time scale for example, or even for specifi...
@ShadowWizard The thing that really sold me on stickiness was when I switched to another site and realized that to get to the bar I'd need to scroll all the way back up the page. It was maddening.
@ShadowWizard Judaism was the one I noticed on. On that note, I think it'll be trickier to make a nice sticky bar on other sites than it was to make the black bar look good. Ask Ubuntu is a potential nightmare.
