Chat message deleting mode: paranoid.

le sigh

@Scrooginator Now I'm paranoid because I don't know what you wrote! :O

:D

Everyone enjoys one of those.

Hehehe.

Hmmm, I emailed Glyde to tell them that two items I received never got updated as delivered by USPS, and thus I couldn't accept them online. They fixed them both and gave me a $5.00 off coupon for my next purchase. :D

-_-

FREE MONEY!

Also, I finally got Amazon to issue my refund on an old order; they gave me an additional $30 from what was supposed to be refunded. ^_^ Today's a good day.

Bragging about defrauding a major company in a public chat room? tsk!

It's not defrauding. They refunded the entire amount of five products for the inconvenience, rather than issuing a price difference. It's a respectable thing to do on behalf of Amazon (considering I had to deal with them for two weeks to get the refund in the first place).

@Scrooginator Hey, Sorry, I wasn't around.. got a ping from a deleted comment I think.

@Fosco I was just saying good job!

In my own special way.

Oh, thanks.. hehe.

I need to work more on my being fabulous, evidently.

I'm sure it was awesome.

On a less vague note, new king size bed moved in. Woo!

Cool )

Nothing like illegally throwing a bed in a truck without anything holding it down and driving across town at 5km/h. In the middle of a snowstorm.

hahaha

I had a phone interview today, and it went really well... An hour later they emailed to set up a second one. :)

Sweet.

Whoa.. well kudos for getting an interview.

That's the situation I'm in. I'm honored they wanted to talk.

Yeah, cool stuff :)

@scroog @fosco Nice. Just started at CityMaps today.

Now I'm zombie tired.

:O

My new bed is fantastic.

Also, I now have official permission to make a little road trip to NYC next April/May hehe.

I'm tuning a banjo!

\o/

Wait, that edit made your activity a less randomly awesome Tuesday night activity. -1.

Oh, right. It's about that time, isn't it?

It's about your mom time!

Oops, wrong outburst.

"Tuesday's coming, did you bring your coat?"

I live in a giant bucket?

Nicely done, moot.

Punctuation'ddd!

Tuning, mootinator. Tuning.

Jeez.

I want one.

Well you can't have one. You're already going to New York in April.

True.

But it's not all that far from my in-laws.

I have to spend the rest of the month with in-laws to pay for that trip.

I like how people accept the first answer that worked, without bothering to look at the other answers

(removed)

Just did 50+ math equations. Granted, they were easy, but its 2am.

Yes.

But at 2 am everything gets a \o/!

Except people who accept the first answer that worked. They don't get a \o/.

Though their self-interest isn't unusual. They likely didn't go to SO in the first place to reward anyone's thoughtfulness.

\o/ deserves a \o/

what is a \o/ by the way, is it a guy like with the hands saying yay?

\o/ You understand!

fiddle ... tracking sucks ... like anything ....

got message while removing unwanted white space ... in stackoverflow.com/questions/13835047/… post

> You must have a massive headache, I can't imagine what this does to the MSO feed that goes direct into your brain!

DOWNTIME. SO. PAINFUL.

It's cool, other dev. Please keep checking your old, local Visual Source Safe metadata files in to a completely different source control system when you make changes. That makes a lot of sense.

I see you've found my workplace.

@Moshe Congrats!!

Hahahaha!

That's pretty nifty.

Can't tell if just trolled or sent business letter.

Can't it be both?

Yes.

Or neither.

Good, I like options.

Actually that's a lie, I'm terribly indecisive.

=)

...

It got an answer too?! It's not even Friday yet, c'mon.

It's Saturday for the rest of the month!

\o/

Yeah, how are my projects coming along? :P

Ugh, JPA, why are you not Dapper?

I turned SEDE into a MLM platform for you.

Now you can work from home and earn $5000 a week!

Excellent!

Where do I sign up? And do I get a referral bonus if I tell my friends?

Naturally.

I don't know how you deploy that thing, jeez!

Hmm? :P

Ah ah ah hahhh.

SEDE deployments are super easy, I don't know what you're talking about.

Heh =)

this got posted on HackerNews, made it to the front page: math.stackexchange.com/questions/256816/… A teacher supposedly calling out a student on cheating.

@TimStone ...

Find something productive to do with my time and/or assume wife is just going to go into labor any minute so I shouldn't bother. Tough decision.

@RebeccaChernoff Nothing to see here. >_>

@Scrooginator Hah, that's...a tough call. :P

@Fosco Hahah. Not the first time that's happened either...if you can't even be bothered to put in any effort yourself, what the hell are you going to class for?

@TimStone Good idea. I'll make breakfast. Then I don't have to commit to one or the other.

Breakfast sounds like a fantastic idea.

@TimStone Yeah no doubt.... but why would you give todays generation a 'take home final' ??...

Well, I guess if it's this easy to catch people cheating there's really no threat. I did have a number of take home exams for my classes, but I don't remember any of them being finals.

Hmm, instead of eating actual food, I could just have more of these delicious cookies that were brought to me...

My floor at work is having a holiday dessert potluck.

The amount of nutritionless globs of sugar I'm about to subject my body to is going to be unconscionable.

@Fosco Even good schools have online programs these days.

According to Facebook I didn't do anything interesting until October 16.

Most of my entries are from the past few weeks.

It did, however remind me of this fact:

Hahah

One day we will look back at this grid of crossfading pictures fad and treat it with the same derision as blinking text or Geocities sites.

Fellow Android users... be sure to check out Action Launcher Pro. Awesome launcher replacement.

PROTIP: Saying "Where do I sign up?" on Twitter is a spammer magnet.

Uh oh.

I missed my opportunity to spam 1454 unnecessary messages in chat, and type message #1212121 at 12:12:12 local time.

Whatever. Stack Exchange is on UTC anyhow.

Pff, "local time."

Well I really missed UTC.

hahaha

@JeremyBanks you may enjoy the comments under the survey announcement Meta post.

(for the lazy)

I picked both, just to be safe...

We need MOAR JAYQUEERY!

@JeremyBanks IT'S A TRAP

Can someone help reopen this queestion? This is a pretty old man who really put alot of effort - stackoverflow.com/questions/13824726/…

Can my meta block please be lifted? I've been a good boy for like 6 months...

I'd love to see some stats in report about this year's user survey results about users who care too much about details that are minor at best. (Just kidding, please don't flame me.)

@Adel, I voted to reopen, it seems like a pretty simple yes/no question for those who know those libraries (which isn't me).

"Experience with standard revision control (SVN)" [from careers.se]. The company who posted that job offer should reword that to "Experience with lame revision control (SVN)"

O_o

Experience with stone-age revision control (CVS).

Experience with lower paleolithic revision control (printing out all the code after every major change)?

Why am I arguing in that survey thread now? I blame Popular Demand for linking it in here (and I'm too lazy to spin the wheel on my mobile).

If we promised you would never have to work with someone who doesn't have a clue what they're doing again in your life, would you do it for free?

Which of these buzzwords still irritates you? 1. Big Data 2. AJAX 3. NoSQL

Sorry, just writing my own survey.

Reputation cap? I had no idea I've earned so much reputation today. o.o

That's a ludicrous argument, right? Or am I missing something?

Yep.

That's not at all what I was saying, also. And I feel like that's what he's implying.

dash-tom-bang is short for RIAA shill.

@jadarnel27 that's kind of like when someone wants a bounty refunded after not getting any good answers. The contract is for increased exposure, not necessarily results. With ads, the advertiser is paying the site owner for a promise that the site will attempt to serve the ad X times (and, I believe, for click-throughs, but that's a separate issue). Visitors never sign a contract with the advertiser, promising to view the content.

:/

I'm stealing from Stack Overflow by ignoring the martini-starfish 99% of the time.

@PopularDemand Thanks for putting that into words better than I could. There was something fishy about that line of reasoning, and you hit the nail on the head.

@Adel voted to re-open.. it's at 3/5 now.

And also: thanks mootinator and Lance for confirming my suspicions that this guy is confused.

reopened, @Adel

This is dumb. This is stupid. I don't want to do it anymore.

Just say no to drugs.

Don't worry, be happy.

You can't tell me what to do, you're not my real dad!
