Hi Alumeo, welcome to the Stack Exchange Network Meta site! I'm not sure which search brought you here but the problem you describe will not be answered on this specific site. To get an expert's answer for the topic of your question you'll have to find and then re-post on the proper site. Check How do I ask a good question and What is on topic on the target site to make sure your post is in good shape. Your question is definitely off-topic on Meta and is better deleted here. — Journeyman Geek 17 secs ago

If you wanted to ask on Ask Different, use that site. (If you get a message that says you are not allowed to post there, please read the link that would be given to you - here it is again, for reference). You may not bring a question about Apple hardware here in order to work around a question ban, because you are being ignored on the proper site, or for any other reason. This place is for asking about Stack Exchange itself. — Karl Knechtel 33 secs ago

so if the answer is 5 pages long, it's better to type it out in one's own words than just post a link to an article that may have done a better job? Not all sites are copyright protected. — timelessbeing 8 secs ago

[ Boson light ] New comment posted by fyrepenguin
@timelessbeing generally, one would summarize the key aspects of the answer to make it self-contained, while linking to the original source. That way the full details should be available, but the answer stands on its own in the event of link rot. You can certainly also quote sections from a source but 5 pages is very excessive — fyrepenguin just now

@Mast nothing significant. and my thing has flashing issues on new tabs before the userscript loads.

[ Boson light ] New comment posted by SPArcheon
If the question didn't had an answer from another user before, it won't have an answer afterward. If the OP found their solution but could not care to post it because the site feels unrewarding and not worth their time writing long answers for 1-2 votes max. then their knowledge won't be lost either way since they never shared it with you. I'll be honest: I have some old unanswered questions that I found the answer since, but I can't care to self answer since no one showed any interest and I would kinda love the mockery to be able to mark them as solved without positing the answer... — SPArcheon 59 secs ago
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Journeyman Geek
If OP asks, OP would do it if they know its ok to. Someone feeling burnt out over the site is a whole different set of issues. I can relate but I don't feel like that's the case here. I occationally (ab)use SE and SE chat for documenting stuff simply cause I'm familiar with the format, it helps me collect my thoughts and its fairly easy to search through my own posts. I don't ever post answers for the upvotes. I've past me has occasionally saved future me a lot of time — Journeyman Geek just now
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by SPArcheon
Users will proudly teach you that "you should write a self answer". Yet... I perfectly get where you come from: you took time to write a good question yet not only no one answered it, no one even deemed it worth a vote (I mean, you don't want to help a rival climbing the Top Site Heroes League and steal your non-existent prizes) so... why should you bother posting the answer now? I get the idea that you should just post to help and not to gain fake point... but let's be honest: the gamification is there for a reason to make you feel appreciated. +1 even if your proposal is mostly a provocation — SPArcheon 23 secs ago

[ Boson light ] New comment posted by SPArcheon
yet if you notice you just basically admitted that you are doing that because it is useful for you, not because of simple philanthropy. I never said I see that feature as something the site would implement. I just said that I can perfectly understand the reasoning - you felt unappreciated when you still needed help so you don't care to share now that you got you answer yourself. — SPArcheon 25 secs ago
 
9:41 AM
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by SPArcheon
Short version: it is easy to see these posts as an opportunity to proudly educate users and get easy votes because one posted the popular answer (and sadly for some that is "you wrong, learn kiddo, imma better" just disguised as "let's me teach you") but I am starting to thing that if would be more productive to realize that if these rants keep coming back then maybe the system isn't that great and all perfect instead of just scrubbing them off as "uneducated users" — SPArcheon 30 secs ago

@TylerH The previous announcement (the question associated with the first link in Rosie's post) read "...to provide Stack Overflow content directly within Google Cloud"; I guess that does not explicitly answer your question but anything else would be quite a surprise. — Bryan Krause 17 secs ago
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by TylerH
@BryanKrause Oh, that's a good point--I agree it would be a little surprising if they integrated w/ Google Cloud for AI but not for hosting. Then again, it's surprising they're moving away from their own industry-leading on-premises infrastructure, so... — TylerH 11 secs ago

[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Rosie
@ccprog Some initiatives, such as Staging Ground, are starting with Stack Overflow. It’s the largest and most active site on the network, so we often start there. However, we always do so with an eye on the larger network to see if there is value in new features rolling out across Stack Exchange. Some initiatives, such as the Product Advisory Council (working with community managers and the product team) will be network-wide, not just limited to Stack Overflow. — Rosie ♦ 45 secs ago

we are not discriminating against AI, just not letting plagiarizers to roam freely on our network. It's not their answer, question, comment, etc. They haven't done anything besides copy and pasting from here to there and vice versa. Aside from all the other valid concerns regarding practicality of reviewing such posts, I just do not understand why we should have a conversation about whether copy and pasting content should be allowed or not?!!! — M-- 12 secs ago

This is wrong for many reasons, but the major reason is that reputation has nothing to do with trust, in the basic level. It's given per-post. There is a bonus of 100 reputation, given on all sites once you reach 200 in a single site, and that's enough to get the basic privileges. — Shadow Wizard Love Zelda 6 secs ago
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Kevin B
Sounds too complicated. — Kevin B 48 secs ago
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Shadow Wizard Love Zelda
@KevinB technically? Not really, there are already cross site jobs running, so when getting upvote it's possible, in theory, to add 1 rep on all other sites. Downvotes would be more tricky, e.g. taking 1 reputation down on all sites for every two downvotes you get on one site. Still, that's surely not the reason to object to this request, IMO. — Shadow Wizard Love Zelda 37 secs ago
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by M--
@FranckDernoncourt no worries. I was actually surprised to see no one had mentioned that aspect here. And, kinda more surprised that your proposal on Android.SE is welcomed positively. But I, too, wouldn't be eager to reopen can of worms after 15 months or so. Cheers (will delete this comment shortly). — M-- 40 secs ago

[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Shadow Wizard Love Zelda
@KevinB well yes, when seeing user with no activity and no other accounts but with 101 reputation, it's usually due to reputation bonus on a hidden site. So that won't be very different. — Shadow Wizard Love Zelda 57 secs ago

Given the context of the article, by onboarding, are you primarily referring to this thing (that currently can't be publicly discussed), or are you looking at the actual sources of onboarding problems, particularly wrt. lack of information to new users regarding the function of the sites and the network? I really, really want to be optimistic, but the blog post exclusively focuses on a minor change related to the thing that can't be discussed yet, which isn't actually an onboarding strategy that's meaningful; it's just a bump in signups — Zoe is on strike 16 secs ago

Great news! Glad to hear you're re-committing focus on human knowledge sharing. However, from the linked blog post: "There was a sense of optimism regarding Stack Overflow’s AI entry and in remaining a valuable resource for technologists." I can't find evidence of this assertion. There's a +81/-117 score on the OverflowAI search post and the overwhelmingly top-voted answer doesn't sound remotely optimistic to me. Same for just about any other AI-related proposal I've seen on the network. — ggorlen 24 secs ago
