When occurring by itself, a single grace note normally indicates the intention of either an appoggiatura or an acciaccatura. When they occur in groups, grace notes can be interpreted to indicate any of several different classes of ornamentation, depending on interpretation.

why this answer is bad one stackoverflow.com/review/first-posts/5209323 I passed audit just because i knew that it was one (because there were no question in queue and i clicked on original question) but if I didn't do i would click no action needed and would fail.

Bart

/me contemplates telling @rene that I'm currently writing horrible injection-prone queries myself

Templar

once i passed review i can see from the comment that it was copied from other answer but should we look at all of the answers? some question may have 60 answers

rene

@Bart I'll use your smiting stick on your code base...

Bart

No worries @rene, there is plenty of facepalming and fist shaking going on. Refactoring and restructuring everything at the moment.

"Who the frick wrote this nonsense? Oh, that's right ... I did"

Templar

actually not necessary copied from other answer, just from twitter bootstrap css file

@Templar well, it might not be obvious but I would say the comment is a give away.

Jan Dvorak

flag as link-only? stackoverflow.com/a/4565602/499214

rene

@JanDvorak I would say so...

Templar

@rene but you can't see a comment while reviewing, you can see it ONLY after you passed it

and how these audits are picked? automatically? or human choose them?

They are automatically chosen.

rene

@Templar Ah, didn't realize that. I might have failed that audit as well. You could post on meta.so to see if others agree. I'm not sure though how you can remove audits from the first posts queue

Templar

just any successfully deleted question/answer?

I migth post it later, should i do it in meta se or so?

Bart

How does this post only pertain to a specific site? meta.stackexchange.com/questions/235015/…

Yes, it happened on SO. Yes, the OP could have asked it on MSO, but in the end it's so general I see no problem in it being on MSE

rene

I agree...

@Bart do you want it to be reopened?

Stijn

The more old bug reports / feature requests I read on MSE that were answered/handled by Jeff, the more Jeff appears like a stubborn asshat to me

Bart

I was going to vote so @rene. Just wondered if I was overlooking something.

rene

@Bart I voted for reopen

Vote to Close

@ShadowWizard @Bart did you save that to your chat note system for quick look up?

Shadow Wizard

@VotetoClose it's burned into our collective memory, no need for any notes

Stijn

I feel like we're moving from a weekly SO has become elitist post to a daily one on MSO

rene

ping?

Stijn

@rene pong

rene

ha works...

my UI is...well...non-exsistent...

As I'm on the train and async loading of css, by the time the css arrives at the location it was requested from the train is no longer there...

Stijn

@rene done with work already for the day? Or travelling for work?

Bart

@Stijn Such an elitist statement. You've lost touch with the common man

You are the 1%

rene

11:40 AM

@stijn on my way to Eindhoven for a meeting with customer/projectteam

cya!

Shadow Wizard

@Stijn hey that was a mini WAG!

Stijn

@ShadowWizard I fear WAG has a different meaning to me than it does to you

mine being the NSFW one

:)

Shadow Wizard

eh? (go searching)

you mean the magazine? Not really NSFW. Or is it? ;)

Anyway meant Word Association Game, @Stijn :)

Stijn

@ShadowWizard aha :D I was thinking of Wives and Girlfriends

Shadow Wizard

and what's NSFW in wives and girlfriends?

Stijn

11:52 AM

depending on where you work I suppose

you know the section some lesser quality newspapers have with pictures of famous people's WAGs?

Shadow Wizard

I just Googled it, top result is a beauty salon website

Stijn

often with few clothes

Shadow Wizard

@Stijn few is more than nothing... :D

I also wear only 3 items of clothes on me and it's just enough

Bart

Left sock, right sock, ...

Stijn

@rene how's your CSS?

I've never had ReSharper before this job.

It's pretty awesome.

And humbling.

> Hi! We noticed you just wrote some code. Would you like us to rewrite it in the following, less stupid way? Let us know! Love, ReSharper.

Stijn

I've tried it once but often it was just fighting my coding style

Shadow Wizard

@Stijn who won?

jadarnel27

In what way, @Stijn?

Stijn

@jadarnel27 one example I remember is that I like explicit == true

@ShadowWizard me, I swiftly uninstalled it

There were a couple of features I think that I did find useful but not enough for me to bother configuring the whole thing to my taste

Shadow Wizard

@Stijn oh, one hit kill. Nice!

jadarnel27

12:26 PM

@Stijn I see.

jadarnel27

12:40 PM

To each his own. I do revert some of the style changes that it makes.

I'm okay with my lines of code being a little longer than what ReSharper likes.

Ok, I have this dilemma: I need to quit the C++ lounge, but in order to quit that place I need a substitute place to stay. P.S. as much as I love here, I can not imagine staying here 24/7 <3

Bart

It's because of @ShadowWizard isn't it? I get you @chmod711telkitty

user202362

I see you are here 24/7, It's because of @ShadowWizard isn't it? I get you @Bart >_<

Bart

Absolutely. What we have a beautiful thing. Disturbing, but beautiful.

Shadow Wizard

@Bart eh? me? Whaat? :D

@chmod711telkitty my Den is open for everyone... feel free to make it your home. I even got a dev dwelling there.
