I am used to using jQuery for manipulating the DOM, for example: var mything = $("#mything"); mything.on("click", function() { mything.addClass("red"); mything.html("I have sinned."); }); But now I want to do the same things with Vanilla JavaScript. Is this possible? How can I do it? ...

Nicolas Clément

Nicolas Clément (1779–1842) was a French physicist and chemist. Also known as Nicolas Clément-Desormes, he was born in Dijon. He was a colleague of Charles Desormes, with whom he conducted the Clément-Desormes experiment. The two chemists are also credited with determining an accurate value of gamma in the gas law (see Equation of state) that relates the heat capacity of air when expanded at constant pressure vs. constant temperature. They also conducted research on iodine and played a role in determining that it was an element. This research eventually led others to invent the process of photography...

Tim Post

@Braiam I'm going to start an overhaul of the review history page soon. It was something we wanted to do as part of the quality project, when we introduced the helper queue - it just turned out to be complex enough to become its own larger project.

People need to be able to see "That thing you spent time editing? Yeah, look how well it went on to do a month later", and it's also very useful to see how your review actions pair with the ultimate fate of the post.

I'd like to make this just become another part of your profile, although it kinda is now, it's not very easy to discover (or, much less, show off)

Unihedron

@TimPost What about declined flags? They need some care too. Currently they just get buried in the flag log unnoticed until you reach the warning threshold, then the system warns you.

James

@bummi gone

Tim Post

@Unihedron Yeah, what I'm thinking of doing is small bar graphs that shows something of a percentage. It's not just flags, how are your close votes ultimately falling? How are your triage actions ultimately falling? Because it's good to know that only, say, 10% of what you call unsalvageable actually ends up closed unanswered.

Unihedron

Tim Post

6:38 AM

@Unihedron Ssssssssssssorda. When I start, I'm hoping to just grab a designer. I don't want to build something that compels people to use all their things:

Because knowing you can pull the trigger 95 more times isn't always a proper motivator in and of itself.

Unihedron

@TimPost True.

Tim Post

Knowing you have ammo left and stuff in your known tags, on the other hand? That's a pretty good thing.

Unihedron

So instead of an inventory page, it's more like a dashboard?

Tim Post

@Unihedron Yep. It's a place that shows you how you're doing by your actions being in line with eventual consensus, highlights things that really stand out from what you did in the helper queue, and gives you stuff to do based on how much 'ammo' you have left and targets you'd be likely to hit needing reviewed.

Unihedron

Splendid.

Good luck!

@Bart jokes aside, probably Hello Kitty stands as the only force that could conquer the world and make people feel happy about it. I mean... there is a single market area that doesn't have at least one Sanrio/Hello Kitty item on sale?

Bart

Hello Kitty is an abomination and a weak copy of Dick Bruna's work. There ... statement made.

I don't know this guy you are speaking about, but I was just point out that Kitty is everywhere, no more

Bart

Look him up. Great work. :)

All of these HNQ's recently from SO have been super simple (and some dupes). :/

Like stackoverflow.com/questions/30772402/… is a dupe...

@AstroCB When it got suggested, my idea was that it could be useful to make Smokey report a post, and then you could TP it afterwards to train the Bayesian filter. However, perhaps @Manishearth (who suggested it) had a different idea why it would be useful.

SPArchaeologist

Wait... basically... the sample is a list of flat panel TVs from a specific producer?

I am so gonna click that link

Bart

I clicked ... and it's not a list

So I flagged it as spam

And if it's wrong, I blame it on the lack of swimmingpools and drinks in my area.

SPArchaeologist

@Bart so it was stealth spam

spealth ... stam ... something like that.

SPArchaeologist

well.... I am jumping on the "this is a spam attempt" train too.

Carrie Kendall

this might be a silly question, but how are the spamming botnets getting around the captchas so easily?

Andy

@CarrieKendall Captchas are pretty easy to break. Alternatively, it may not be automated. They may be paying pennies (or less) for breaking X captchas

Carrie Kendall

ugh, that's such a disturbing thought
