In that case, the site would already give you the link (though it'd take an extra click to get there).

you can get revisions with the api

Ah, right.

so could use that to get the latest revision guid and then use that to build the link

but i think just a history link would be better

@TimStone, you gonna add it or am i (:

Whoops

Heh

(:

Typing mistakes aside, I'll go ahead and add it now unless you'd like to.

You two are too polite ;-)

LOL

all yours @TimStone (:

Hahah

"Are you going to add it, or am I?" / "I'll add it, unless you'd like to?" / "I'd like to, but why don't you go ahead?" Just do it already! ;-)

/me ducks from @rchern 's flying iron

pffft you have nothing to fear from an iron

just your socks do!

whew

@rchern "history" or "revisions"?

history. it shows things that aren't necessarily edits right? and it is shorter. +2 even though the page is called revisions itself >_>

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.

Hey there @YiJiang

@TheUnhandledException Hey

Oh VMware Server 2.0 Web Access, why must you be so shitty?

Hmmm... I currently have 1337 reps on MSO. How nice...

How elite of you @YiJiang

@YiJiang Very disappointingly, I just learned that the Gaming SE site was proposal #1338 back when it was, you know, proposed.

@PopularDemand #1337 was probably some lame ass proposal, huh?

@TheUnhandledException Motor vehicle maintenance and repair.

1338 is 1337 with awesomeness rounded up.

1337 was actually a proposal not a question?

@rchern Good point: "In "5W30", what do "5" and "30" mean?"

They call them proposals, but really they're just posts, and share ids with the example questions

5 wheel, 30 each

that confuses me

@TheUnhandledException It's just like on SO, where an ID can be either a question or an answer.

Sorry, I meant "5 wheel 30 each"

@TheUnhandledException it makes sense in context

@radp What's the context? :-)

@TheUnhandledException Indeed :D

(You owe the Internet Oracle a context.)

My tab with the Internet Oracle is getting very long

Dang employees asking me legitimate questions and distracting me from working on userscripts...heh.

Pull request, away!

LOL

hehehehe

Is there any way to vertically center HTML content of unknown height using CSS, or do I need to use a single-celled table with valign="middle"?

Depends on the scenario, can you describe in more detail what you're trying to do?

I have a custom built fading slideshow, so there's a container <div> of a fixed size, within that are two absolutly positioned <div>s, each the same size and positioned on top of one another... the two crossfade between each other, then I hide one and swap it's contents with the HTML for the next slide, and the crossfade resumes

I want to vertically and horizontally center the (unknown html) content inside these slide "slots"

Oh, the HTML inside the slots is itself wrapped in a <div>

so it's: <div id="container"><div id="A"><div><p>some content I want centered</p></div></div><div id="B"><div><img alt="some content I want centered"></div></div></div>

@TimStone done (:

@rchern Neato :)

i also created an issue (;

Yeah, I was wondering why it was on all of the answers..but I thought maybe it was a "Oh, I should look at the timeline based on this answer" sort of thing. ;)

Ah, including the CSS file I made changes in would be helpful...

@TheUnhandledException Hm, I can't think of another way to make that work.

@TimStone I didn't think so... thanks anyway!

@TheUnhandledException No problem, hopefully I'm not forgetting anything, heh. Why percentage values are taken from the container's width I'll never understand, otherwise it's just a position:relative; top:50%; margin-top:-50%; sort of deal. I guess that wouldn't have been frustrating enough. ;)

@TimStone I know... CSS is great, except when it's not

Urgh, damn you Mercurial

Hmm, why can't you issue a pull request as a response to an issue on Github? I feel like that would make more sense than having a new issue be created..

Not sure if you can associate like that.

I couldn't figure out a way, at any rate.

I'm the wrong person to ask hehehe

Something keeps locking one of my files and makes it impossible for me to pull after I merge and commit, very annoying.

):

opens Process Monitor and grumbles

Very overflow-y

Ah ha, interesting.

Looks like a bug in hg-git...Dang python. ;)

looks around for @AidenBell

Heh :P

Oh I just love it when code that's worked fine for a long time decides to break for no apparent reason!

In Internet Explorer, of course

Oh. Nevermind

It's an apparent reason, just barely

Ah ha ;)

apparently in IE, return null; is not the same as no return statement at all...

(in JavaScript)

I wonder, can I return undefined; ?

Yes, this is the default value.

I hate giving phone screens sometimes.

@TheUnhandledException This is the same as return; by the way.

@GeorgeStocker Why's that?

Because it's so painful when the candidate doesn't know what they're talking about and trying to BS you.

@TimStone Nice, return undefined; works great. The difference is, my IDE doesn't complain :-)

(without return *something* I got a warning, "function does not always return a value")

Now my file shows no errors, no warnings, and I can go get food! XD

@GeorgeStocker Ah, true. We give online assessment tests before moving on to phone calls to weed out the worst candidates (half of people who apply don't bother to even try the test, heh), but it's still very easy for people to end up wasting your time.

@TheUnhandledException Ah, food. Success! :D

Hear, hear!

Catch you later @Tim and everyone else!

See ya!

@rchern Can you see it still?
