We're changing the way syntax highlighting is done on the Stack Exchange engine.
As you probably know, we use Google Code Prettify for automatic syntax highlighting.
Since the beginning, we've had kind of a boolean setting per website:

@TimStone I don't ... I'm just fighting nervousness about this weekend, too much shit planned, not enough time, don't wanna be at work, dreading the still having an hour drive home...
after 15 months driving 10+ hours a week on commute without idiot drivers makes one weary of driving
@jleedev That's not true, if it's tagged with both [java] and [xml] it will revert to "default", which will allow the syntax highlighter to make the decisions like it used to. :)
you're assuming nobody will come along and clean things up ;) if they don't tag it with either then they probably format like crap too, which means someone will be cleaning it up. They'll notice the lack of tags
@drachenstern I guess it goes against my instincts that questions about a framework and not the language in particular should be tagged for the framework and not the language
@TimStone boss usually tells me where he wants it assigned on work-handout, but sometimes he's vague and I'll work on something for weeks (like this, where I /facepalm don't log my hours weekly) and so when I do get around to it I have no idea what to actually put the time under.
@TimStone workaround is put it on it's own line (we use webtimesheet.com) and then I can merge them later or change the line to a different project. Way easy. Also, lazy
@TimStone Someone once complained that the [java] tag is nearly useless on its own, since you get questions about all kinds of frameworks that people use and not the language itself.
So while it’s true that a typical [android] question will contain some [java] code, I’m asking about which functions to call and how, not what the java means, etc.
@jleedev Well, I only have [java] on my interesting tags, so if you don't also tag a Java question with that, there's a high chance I won't see it (Not that anyone misses out by not getting my mediocre answers, but :P)
I guess I’m saying that I personally would not ask a question tagged [java] unless I thought a Java generalist would be able to answer it, and so the issue of tagging is separate from that of highlighting.
is there a, or do we have a need for, a [lang-pseudo] for when you're trying to explain something in pseudocode? (often for my needs [lang-c] would be fine ;] )
Also, does this say what happens to answers formatting? What if I'm discussing [asp.net] with someone and the question is tagged c# but...
I had to restart for Windows updates, and now Thunderbird has gone batshit crazy with reminders of meetings I already had weeks ago because it and Google calendars can't play nice.
Although that's partially Google's fault since the methods of accessing Google calendar outside of Google calendar are retarded.
I'm also tired of having to restart Firefox since it climbs to 1.5 GB of memory usage for no clear reason. :P
And I'm frustrated and about to nuke something from orbit, heh.
1) Thunderbird is pretty amateur. I use it too, though.
2) I agree. Google Calendar needs better APIs.
3) A program you use all day using 1.5GB of RAM is probably a good thing. Your open tabs and some prefetch are probably sitting in cache, so things appear on your screen instantly instead of paging from disk.
@DanGrossman It's only at 350 MB right now with everything open that I had open before, and the reason I have to close it is because the performance tanks.
@jleedev "So this question’s real problem was having [android-service] and not [android]." That's exactly the point, to tie syntax highlighting to proper tagging
@radp 16 hours is easy for me. I can go 30 without a problem most of the time. After that, things get blurry and I wake up in a dumpster covered in blood.
It must bruise your ego to have so many of the same answer thrown back at you that fast, knowing you couldn't figure it out yet so many others considered it so basic.
@JesseHartwick Maybe you are aware that you are, after all, asking a basic question that for the love of what's holy and good you can't find on Google :)
Ah, I am all for Psychology, but not when it is based around: (a) The subjective and limited experience of the talker only (b) Based on indirect "self motivation" and talk-yourself-to-awesomeness (c) Isn't based in any sociological or psychological theory

@JesseHartwick Migrated to progammers.stackexchange.com so hard. XD.
This part: "I used to be among the best around people who were learning at the same time I was, but I reached a plateau and I don't understand why other programmers know so much more than I do." resonates with me so much it's not even funny.
I mean, I wasn't the best in college, but I did well enough.
Three years working with COBOL followed by a year of unemployment does terrible things to the mind of a young programmer with a fragile ego.
Though as I found out, working on personal projects in your spare time gives you something interesting to talk about in job interviews playing World of Warcraft just doesn't. (personal experience)
@mootinator I was more looking at it from the perspective of "PHP has such a bad rep because it has such a low barrier to entry, and lots of people who don't know what they're doing get jobs with it"
yeah, well, Jon isn't gaining any rep, but it runs on the SO Live codebase so you can demo it just like the other versions.
also, this version of SO Live has a possible fix for your problem @RebeccaChernoff, fix also available at the userscript version currently online (same link)

We don't support multi-migration at this point.
Any question I see that gets migrated more than 1 place, I will delete from every site it is on.
Additionally, the type of questions that are so broad and badly asked that nobody can figure out where they need to go -- are usually bad questions an...
Which is all well and good, but if the question can't be migrated to its proper place...
Though still, there was no reason to post it on WA to begin with, and perhaps that's the point.
> Multi-migration may not mean people can't figure out where it belongs, but that the only way to get a question migrated from Site A to Site B is to go through Site C.
I'm still on board with what he said for the general case, but I figured I should ask if there was a migration path, since if there wasn't, multi-site migration (even though unsupported) was the next-best option in this particular case.
Though why the OP posted on WA to begin with we may never know :P
