> The Justice Department on Thursday charged a former CIA clandestine officer with leaking classified information about a secret U.S. effort to disrupt Iran’s nuclear program to New York Times reporter James Risen. .... The CIA has always insisted that Risen’s reporting was “inaccurate.”
I'm confused. The information is supposedly inaccurate, but it's also leaked. Can you actually leak something that isn't true in the sense of it existing in that context?
How and what design patterns would you use if designing a forum or a blog in php? I know singleton for the db connection, and observer to add plugin ability, but would you use a factory pattern in a forum, or the chain of command/strategy pattern?
@Shog9 I figure as much too. The story is the kind of stuff someone would take ten seconds to make up anyway, so I'm not sure why they care at this point...But ah well. Sucks to be him, heh.
There's this answer on a Web Apps question migrated from Super User.
The poster has an account on Web Apps which is associated with his Super User account, but as you can see the answer hasn't been associated with his account.
Is there anything a moderator can do or is this something a dev has ...
I'm not 100% sure why it's marked [status-completed], since Jarrod seems to suggest it's not a perfect system, but...the consensus seems to be "Wait 24 hours, then ask about it" or something.
@PopularDemand yeah... Bunch of information scattered around, but nothing all in one place. Proper strategy, I think, would be to ask a [faq] question listing all the common questions - right now it's too scattershot and the answers all suck anyway.
I'd do it, but I absolutely don't care at all about the answers.

Several dermatologists who have blogs that are relatively popular in the derm online community have agreed to post entries about the SE area 51 proposal
they told me to write whatever I want and they would post it
with that being said, I wanted to know if someone here would be willing to help me create a blog entry promoting the proposal? With instructions on how to join, etc., while still keeping the entry short and sweet
Hi folks,
Simple question: what's the best blog post/ video/ tweet/ whatever to explain how the Stack Exchange system works to regular people? I am trying to gauge interest for a new Stack Exchange site, but I want to explain it to people as best (and preferably) as visually as I can. Any YouTub...
@user10926 I'm very glad to hear that for you, however, as a non-dermatologist (or non-medico-anything) I really don't have room to comment, other than to congratulate you as far as SE matters are concerned.
@user10926 Did you see the one for the photo site?
@user10926 Anyway... I'm gonna suggest that you post a request on Meta for assistance - you should be able to get some good tips from the Area51 barflies
I've been trying to get a technical support site for our game, ROBLOX up and running on Area-51 for the past several days.
I whipped 180 people into a fury and sent that to that page (for some reason my referral count - once 150+, bounced back to ~90). Most sites launch at between 200-400 commit...

@drachenstern Oh, I've been lurking in both places for quite a while now. Chat.SO is super quiet anymore, and I've been busy actually doing work (:gasp:) so I've been quiet myself
The system should detect when you try and make X-version a synonym of X and say "are you quite sure you want to do that?". It would avoid like 80% of the bad synonyms
TITLE: How should I word a blog entry promoting an Area51 proposal to non-SE users?
BODY: Several dermatologists who have blogs that are relatively popular in the derm online community have agreed to post entries about the [SE area 51 proposal][1]. They told me to write whatever I want and they would post it.
With that being said, I'm not sure how best to word such a promotion. The target audience won't be familiar with how SE sites work, much less Area 51. I'll need to provide a short and sweet set of instructions on how to join, propose sample questions, comment etc.
So I'm looking for suggestions (or sample verbage!) that've worked for others on similar proposals.

@PopularDemand I don't think that'll happen.
The real challenge is finding 500 dermatologists who don't have any SE rep, but want in anyway
(or more likely, 10 dermatologists and 90 SE users with curious rashes)
@Shog9 I thought he expected you to get in touch with him about it later, or something. It sounded to me like you were going to write the blurb, not text of an MSO post requesting a blurb.
Before I begin, I'd like to point out that I think this site does have some great questions about the act of writing, and I really would like to see it succeed.

In the migration window, a link to a target site's FAQ page would be more useful than a link to the site itself. This would give closers a better idea of whether the question would be acceptable on the target site.
Given that the base "off topic" option has a link that points to the current's si...
Also, I was going to apologise for being unable to drag myself out of bed to answer the pings I got, but now that I see they were just from @drachenstern I'm good.
Since it's only 1000Mbit/sec they said the performance isn't as good as my RAID10, however, since I'm moving a VM from the RAID10 which is currently powering 8 VMs, I figure I'll actually see a boost in performance
It's just not a replacement solution... which is okay
@Zypher I only flagged the second one for my own amusement, and the third one because I approved of your recursion image (and to see if I could both flag and star).

Why should I choose Clojure over another language for a new project? In what areas does it excel?
Interview question: Which one will execute faster, if(flag==0) or if(0==flag)? Why?
Can anyone tell me with a example?
