Just a thought, but including some research as to what you came up with for your answer and why you think the answers are similar would have likely helped ward off close votes for needing more focus. — Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog 54 secs ago

@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog your references are not on point. Yes, you can close questions as duplicates if they are asking for similar things, but you should close the newer question as the duplicate, and when a feature request is implemented, the request should be marked as answered, with the answer pointing to the feature announcement, not closed as a duplicate of the feature announcement. — Old Pro 10 secs ago

@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog your references are not on point. The 1st question was a duplicate of one asked the same day. The 2nd was closed in favor of a much more detailed and powerfully argued request, and that question was marked answered by the feature release. Yes, you can close questions as duplicates if they are asking for similar things, but implementing a feature request should cause the requests to be marked as answered, with the answer pointing to the feature announcement, not closed as a duplicate. — Old Pro 13 secs ago

Regarding the second case, the second question was posted by a then-staff member, who posted the question to announce the upcoming planned change, then posted a self-answer to follow-up that the change was now live. Also, there are plenty more cases than just the two I pointed out here (I forgot to notice the timing of the closure on the first). This question was closed by binding vote from a moderator, which means that the policy I linked is indeed the one that moderators are enforcing, and other site users (others who voted to close your question and later reviewed to leave it closed) agree. — Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog 15 secs ago

Each community has their own "meta" site, such as meta.stackoverflow.com for StackOverflow. That is the place to ask about site policies and procedures regarding StackOverflow. You've posted here on the "general" Meta StackExchange site. (At one time they were the same thing, but now they are distinct. See Stack Overflow is getting a Meta of its own.) — hardmath 43 secs ago

Hi William Bell, 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 58 secs ago

@SonictheAnonymousHedgehog RESEARCH HAS NEVER BEEN A PREREQUISITE TO ASKING QUESTIONS. Elementary questions are fine; the only requirement is to state a well-motivated question clearly, generally and in isolation. Which is what the asker did. And I don’t think the closure was warranted either. (I do question some of the phrasing, though.) — user3840170 47 secs ago
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog
@user3840170 I didn't say it was required. I only gave the author a recommendation as to what they could have done to reduce the likelihood of receiving incorrect close votes. — Sonic the Anonymous Hedgehog 22 secs ago

Thats a good question - I'd say there's a significant change in circumstances. I was considering editing, the original post, bountying or reasking, and considering that staff are actively keeping an eye out on new posts about the image uploader, and being very responsive, this felt like the best way of it being seen. From my perspective - the 'worst' that I saw happening was a duplicate close. I guess the question would be was this more effective than resurfacing the old post. In moderation, I'd say that the ends justify the means. There's minimal disruption to the network — Journeyman Geek 45 secs ago
[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Journeyman Geek
or the site, it gives a useful feature the best chance of being implimented, and at the very least its potentially somewhere on the readmap while the image uploader is being actively developed. Its not 'strictly' the neatest solution, but sometimes you need a little chaos — Journeyman Geek 29 secs ago

I do note that I participated in the developer survey for many years under the assumption that my answers are anonymous. I would be very curious to know if you are able to link responses between years because then I need to redefine what anonymous means. — rene 43 secs ago

[ Boson light ] New comment posted by Makyen
It's unclear what you're actually doing/trying to do and exactly what response you're getting. It's unclear what you did with respect to "updated my email", etc. You should edit your question to clarify. However, it doesn't really matter, because the answer is very likely to be the same as it is for the vast majority of problems relating to login credentials: Use the "Contact"/"Contact Us" link that's at the bottom of every page to contact the company. They can communicate with you privately. — Makyen 21 secs ago

I can't reproduce on Edge 123.0.2420.65 on Mac, with default zoom, 90%, or 125%. I think it will be hard for any web site to account for all the ways various browsers will try to render their content in any kind of zoom or other altered mode. — Aaron Bertrand 7 secs ago

"All of the above is for a recalc only. The process itself is atomic and non-commit-dependent. We track all of this through in-memory objects so we can fully simulate a recalc and all fixed votes without actually running it" - Are you running some server or process, which is not an SQL server and whose sole purpose is to maintain the RepHistory ledger table in memory? Does RepHistory fit in memory well? (Would StackOverflow's ~240M votes translate into ~2GB? Does each RepHistory event take like 4 bytes for timestamp, 2 bytes for rep, 1 byte for type, 4 bytes for back reference?) — avm23 8 secs ago

[ Boson light ] New comment posted by rene
The sites never formally supported zooming. the icons are based on a so called "image sprite" CSS trick which uses one single image with all icons: meta.stackexchange.com/Content/Img/favicons-sprite16.png (zoom in!) the "correct" image is then shown by a selecting a small key hole at the right position. The height of the image isn't scaled with the key hole, so things get chopped. Another fail case for this image sprite is/was when new sites launched. For 6 to 8 hours all site icons could be off by one ... — rene 26 secs ago

FYI, while using Microsoft Edge on Windows 10, I noticed on Jan. 23 of this year that the tops of various site icons were cut off. After a check for duplicates didn't find anything, I wrote and posted Top parts of some site icons are being cut off, e.g., in list of the highest reputation sites, and in the HNQ. However, when I realized that this had occurred because I, like you, had accidentally set the zoom to 90%, I deleted my question. — John Omielan 1 min ago

Two questions. First, could I ask you to post a more recent Ray ID? Ideally from within the last day or so. Second, for folks who are saying they experience the same issue - do you mean that you're having trouble loading images on a certain network generally, or does it work the exact same way as OP describes, where loading the image via another IP then allows you to load the image on your network? — Slate ♦ 32 secs ago

So this comment and this stance is the twitter view. Free to say what you want. But why is there no recourse or challenge option? In a free world why cant I also challenge a down vote. Their opinion is still heard, but so is the challenge. No compulsion to respond to the challenge (anonymously) but it remains an "un documented" down vote. Fair for everyone. It isnt about silencing people, it is about asking for an explanation. The fact this question is down voted 16 times tells me something about the mindset here. Seems like if you dont like it, "fuk off". — soadyp 46 secs ago
