> An authorized biography about Apple visionary Steve Jobs will be published in early 2012, it was announced Monday. The book will be called "iSteve: A Book of Jobs."
 
@drachenstern: and @TylerChacha: and @TimPost: and@TimStone: I m seeking for a parttime Android or Java Project, pls tell how can i get project as parttime
 
@SankarGanesh google -> android project -> click a bunch of links and read them ...
@SankarGanesh what do you want to do?
do you want to make your own project or contribute to someone else's?
 
@drachenstern i want to grab the android or java projects and work as parttime and finish it and give to customers
 
I could just as well ask the room "I want to bake food. pls tell me how I can bake food"
@SankarGanesh that sounds like you said "I want to take someone else's unfinished work and make it finished and pass it off as my own" ... I don't think that's what you intended to say.
 
@drachenstern not like that, i have read elance.com and i excited whether anyways to get the project from client and work as parttime
 
5:23 PM
hi all is this the correct room to talk about questions related to StackOverflow
 
@developer yes, you can
 
ok somehow my account got banned from asking questions
i do not know y that happened
i tried to email stackoverflow team but got no response
 
@developer this room is the correct room to talk about problems with SO. For general SO discussion you want something on chat.stackoverflow.com such as:
 
is there a way i can know the reason for the ban or reactivate my account
 
@developer let me take a peak, hold on.
The problem is that you have over 50 deleted questions that are all of low quality and don't contribute to the site. The only way to fix this is to have your questions get cleaned up enough that you can show that you are a positive contribution to the site. Really it's something that I can't quite comment on as I don't know the specifics of your deleted questions, I just happen to be privy to that fact
 
5:29 PM
yeh but i did not know that i was not supposed to delete questions. i just tried to keep my account clean by removing those questions that were not answered or anwered incorrectly..
 
At least, that's what I think the problem is ... like I say, you really need a mod or someone to say for sure.
 
Hello
I'm back
 
but how do i talk to the mod as they are not responding to my emails
 
team@stackoverflow.com isn't?
 
yes i emailed them
multiple times but no response
 
5:30 PM
in what timeframe?
over the past week?
 
yes
 
@developer for starters, they don't just sit around waiting on emails to come in. Secondly, you posted on meta and got the answer that ... answered the question.
 
so now is there no way to reactivate my account?
 
@developer nope. It's permanent.
Well, that is to say that if you could really convince Jeff Atwood that it could be unlocked, but you would have to really convince Jeff Atwood something fierce.
 
5:31 PM
oh..i wish i was warned or given knowledge that i was not supposed to delete any questions
 
@developer why would you delete questions in the first place? Like half of your questions are deleted.
If the question isn't getting attention, it's probably poorly formatted. Your commentary here in chat would support that viewpoint.
English isn't your first language is it?
 
like i said i wanted to clean up my account. the deleted questions are all those that did not contribute to SO in any way..
nope
 
Sorry to interject -- is SEChatModifications suddenly broken? I can't get it to work
 
@developer if you felt the question was worth asking, it probably would contribute to SO in some way...
@MichaelMrozek not for myself, no ...
should I pull an update?
 
No, it just stopped working today. I tried updating to see if it helped, but nothing changed. I thought maybe chat changed and the script couldn't hook properly anymore
I must've broken something locally; thanks
 
5:34 PM
Ok folks, I need food and to walk my dog and run some errands. I shall return.
 
and how can i convince Jeff Atwoods..how do i contact him
 
@developer sorry to hear about your problems, but I'm not the one that can help you with those so ... team@ is your best bet.
@developer via team@stackoverflow of course.
 
thanks for trying to help
 
Don't expect a lightning fast response. It will take them some time to respond. Sending multiple emails is not likely to make a difference.
 
oh ok i did not know that
can i undelete my deleted questions?
how can i view my deleted quesitons
 
5:47 PM
@developer Flag one of your questions for moderator attention please
 
one of my deleted questions or any question
 
@developer nevermind, I'll take a look
 
The connections tab now works
doesn't display a ton of data...
but it works
it will end up displaying what is accessing data on your account, and let you stop it
 
is the above link for me?
 
No.
You can look if you want..
 
5:56 PM
oh ok
 
That is an app I'm developing
 
k..doesnt display anything for me
no contents
 
click on a repository
 
it says 102 storage but displays no contents
 
or do you not even get the browser?
 
5:58 PM
i do get the browser but no contents
 
hmmm'
 
nope
 
What browser?
 
@TylerChacha - Works for me.
 
I have it open in both Chrome and Firefox
 
5:59 PM
Safari works too.
 
IE
 
Hehe
 
@developer Maybe that is why Jeff hates you..
 
hIEhIEhIE (The Microsoft Chuckleâ„¢)
 
helloooo, i tried in FireFox and it works fine there
there is something wrong with your code
 
6:01 PM
No. IE just sucks..
 
it is not microsoft friendly
 
Luckily IE is not on my list of supported browsers
 
@developer - Which IE?
 
IE 8
 
@developer So you are using an old browser. Why not IE9?
 
6:02 PM
will it work on IE9?
 
I dunno..
 
@TimPost did you find anything with my account
 
Try it.
 
@developer I'm on the phone, just a second (totally unrelated)
 
oh ok
hey are you guys all moderators or with special previleges
 
6:06 PM
no
just Tim...
 
ok
 
I am the owner of this channel tho..
so i'm italic
cuz I'm special
3
 
wht channel
 
cool
 
6:07 PM
the most active Chat room in all of StackExchange
 
thts gr8
 
also the oldest
 
@TylerChacha How did that happen, btw?
 
@Moshe Well, actually it isn't the oldest. Just the oldest active one
all the older ones got abandoned..
 
Ok.
@TylerChacha shudders
 
6:11 PM
and Meta was the first site, so it is older than all of the stackoverflow and stackexchange ones
The Sandbox and Chat Feedback are the only older ones that aren't frozen/deleted
 
Hi @TheMountainException
 
@developer I suggest saying 'great' instead of 'gr8' :)
 
ok great
 
@TylerChacha - I don't see the logic. Being special makes you italics?
 
@developer When asking questions on SO, treat it as if you were in a public forum with a million people watching. Essentially, that is what you are doing.
 
6:24 PM
yup i got that
but i cant ask questions anymore
 
Spelling and grammar count! As does formatting. :-)
 
@Moshe hey there
 
@developer When asking questions, forget everything you know about your problem, then read your question out loud as if you were the person who could provide the solution. Ask yourself "Is there enough information here to actually answer this?" "Did I show some effort by using accepted rules in writing?"
2
@developer Perfection is not necessary, but try your best to ignore the urgency of your problem long enough to ask a well articulated question.
 
@TheMountainException - Hey, what's up?
 
i understand
 
6:29 PM
@developer It will probably tomorrow, but I'll add a flag saying you came here, asked for some tips and got some tips. It is obvious that you want to help grow the community by doing that.
 
so will they lift the ban tomorrow?
 
@developer They'll read something from me saying lifting it might result in someone who contributes positively.
 
thank you so much..i really appreciate it..
 
@developer No matter the outcome, thanks for coming here and putting yourself in the spotlight, that's not an easy thing to do.
 
@developer - Good luck!
 
6:35 PM
thanks guys
thanks a lot!
 
bored...
 
@developer I've noted this. I'd like to point out that Jeff Atwood hates e-mail, please .. don't follow up. If it will be lifted, it should happen relatively soon. If not, well ...
 
7:18 PM
@Moshe being a room owner (points to the left) makes you italics.
@developer when you have future questions, please please please come here and ask for help, before you delete a question.
@TimPost I ... was not aware of that fact. Whyso? Is it publicly documented somewhere?
 
@drachenstern the first link, well ... :)
 
@TimPost I thought I had seen that... thanks
 
7:44 PM
^--- My newest creation.
 
@GeorgeEdison - Did you think about mobile support for your freehand circle script?
 
@Moshe Uhm... I've been kind of busy.
But, yeah - that'd be nice.
 
8:12 PM
@GeorgeEdison I understand, was just asking.
@drachenstern - Quick question.
Is there a Microsoft framework like Apple's CoreAnimation for WinForms, to animate small UI changes?
 
@Moshe quick answer .... (reading)
@Moshe I don't believe so. Are you looking to do this in the WinForms?
 
@drachenstern Yes.

Q: Simple animation in WinForms

Chris SmithImagine you want to animate some object on a WinForm. You setup a timer to update the state or model, and override the paint event of the Form. But from there, what's the best way to continually repaint the Form for the animation? Invalidate the Form as soon as you are done drawing? Setup a sec...

So the short answer is no. Such a thing does not exist natively.
Those are some ideas on what to do going forward, and the one guy in the linked OB has a library supposedly.
 
Thanks.
I think I once discovered Timers whilst playing with VB.
Now that you mention it.
But, thank you. Seems like what I was looking for.
@drachenstern - Actually, that blog you mentioned links to a library. The same library is mentioned by its author in the question you linked.
 
@Moshe I figured the two were related :p
 
8:50 PM
Helllo
 
Goodbye Hello Goodbye hello hello
ahh lyrics ...
 
I need to clean up the Storage code before bravely moving onwards..
 
@drachenstern better?
 
@Trufa idk, how do you feel about it?
 
9:44 PM
Who can explain this in terms I can understand?
Having (another) spirited debate about email clients at @gdgt HQ. The one thing everyone seems to agree on: not using the Gmail web client.
Why would someone not use the gmail web client? I use multiple PCs
 
@drachenstern doesn't make sense to me either...
 
10:01 PM
I hope all 10ks can check this out:

Q: Allow community votes to undelete Q/A that a moderator has deleted

Lance RobertsI was blown away when I saw that they had implemented a new "feature" whereby if a moderator deletes a post, it cannot be undeleted by owner or votes from the community. As someone who is constantly looking at the newly deleted posts, this is really a sad turn of events. While it makes some sen...

 
Eeensteresting. I have a flag weight of over 400 on SO ...
 
10:25 PM
Japan may raise level of nuclear accident from 5 to 7 - same severity assigned to Chernobyl - Kyodo http://bit.ly/eQBsX5
 
10:59 PM
makes you really appreciate time complexity
the select sort one becomes increasingly ridiculous
 
LOL
That's just...nutty.
 
11:16 PM
@drachenstern Me too!
