Hey guys, what's goin on in this.... walks out quickly
 
2:30 AM
Wait! It's not what it looks like!
 
What does it even look like? o.o
 
I'm not sure. It might actually be exactly what it looks like.
 
Pretty sure this is orthogonal to what it looks like
 
And what does it look like? My browser makes it look like the Tavern, but you made me doubt.
 
2:53 AM
Hmmm, is Gaming.SE eventually going to start redirecting all its links to arqade.com or will arqade.com just always point to gaming.stackexchange.com?
 
3:06 AM
It's just a redirect from arqade.com to gaming.stackexchange.com
 
The almighty knower of all things has spoken! :o
 
There's a bit about that in the blog, specifically:
> Don’t be upset if your community keeps the brand it launched with though – there are a lot of benefits to being associated with the Stack Exchange network! That’s why Arqade, Ask Different, and Seasoned Advice (among others) all redirect to a ___.stackexchange.com subdomain, even though they have their own brands. For one, search rank is improved for our entire network. Additionally, many people recognize Stack Exchange as a brand...
> ...and might be more likely to visit some of the smaller sites because of that.
 
^ See, all knower.
 
Or expert copy+paster, perhaps. :P
 
3:39 AM
@Flexo Yes it was legit; I sent it myself. :)
 
...is exactly what I'd expect a hardened phishing spammer to say

@Shog9 GMail catches the @stackexchange.com email as being spoofed (it says via stackoverflow.com) Which still makes them legit, but it led to me getting confused the other day. (I mean, why would someone want to spoof herself? . No fun in that :P)
 
Hello Everyone.! Site is working beautifuly..
So a beer from me to all you hard/smart working people..
 
That cup appears to be drinking all the beer!
 
:P

@DanielFischer Dude, congrats on your first great answer badge!
 
can i bring some serious meat to the table?
 
...that's what she said.
 
indeed
 
But sure, go for it =)
 
i'm doing a masters project and would like a pool of people to participate in a survey for me. It asks about experiences of using computer based educational tools. would it be inline with stack overflow commandments to promote my research here?
 
1:55 PM
When I was in school, that's what CS undergrads were for =P
 
it wont ask anything about weiner size
 
Seriously though, I can't think of a way to do that through that Stack Exchange that would be acceptable.
Hahaha, well that's good.
@user46934 The only things I can think of that would be alright would be to 1. Put a link to the survey and a description in your "about me" section, and 2. See if you can drum up participants in chat*
*This would probably be considered spam unless it's a chat room you're already active in, so you might not get the best response to this approach.
 
ok cheers guys... In the words of one famous austrian - I'll be back
 
2:50 PM
@jadarnel27 Thanks, @jadarnel27. Lucky to get the first one in on such a ridiculously often viewed question.
 
@DanielFischer Haha, no kidding. 33k views in a day. It's still rocking the top of the "Hot Questions" list.
 
Yep. Reddit and Hacker news. I'd be curious how many votes it would have got without those. Mysticial's answer would have got 100+ for sure, but not over 1K.
 
Yeah, the popularity of questions always causes an interesting skew.

@jadarnel which question?

Q: Why is processing a sorted array faster than an unsorted array?

GManNickGHere is a piece of code that shows some very peculiar performance. For some strange reason, sorting the data miraculously speeds up the code by almost 6x: #include <algorithm> #include <ctime> #include <iostream> int main() { // generate data const unsigned arraySize =...

 
5:53 PM
@Moshe What that guy said ^
 
6:36 PM
Hey anyone here?
 
Oh look, a folder with 1.43 GB of text files... =/

Q: Holy monkeys Batman! That is A LOT of posts!

The DoctorI think due to what happened here: Congratulations on being mentioned on Futurama's Facebook page! We are getting MANY futurama posts within the past few minutes. How can these be moderated fluently? Many of them seem very VERY spammy. (Yay to my flagging score going up and up and uppp!)

SciFi is being overrun!!!!
 
Ooooo, fancy notice :D
 
6:59 PM
Anyone here? :-(
 
partially, at least
 
7:45 PM
What's a here?
 
Some kind of rabbit.
 
An unfinished heretic.
 
I hate ticks.
 
Why, that's heresy! Or hearsay. Or something.
 
8:05 PM
Definitely. Something.

@animuson Meh, the CSS positioning question is more work than I thought. If it makes you feel better, I've left and forgotten to work on quite a number of other posts as well...
At least I have a lecture in the afternoon so I guarantee I'll be... awake, conscious and mobile. And green
 
Haha, well getting rid of the synonym should be an easy step. xP
 
@animuson Done
I should probably trot off now
 
A unicorn's moment of beauty...
 
Linking to the video is a spoiler in itself, so... :D
