Has anyone noticed their profile on Stack Overflow the CSS is slightly out of wack compared to other se sites?
the bio, visits & stats are below the picture, not to the right of the pic
 
1:27 AM
@user214532545345 Uh, no. Pics or it didn't happen... ;-)
 
Hi Shog9 how do I upload an image, the uoload button is disabled
 
@user214532545345 needs moar freehand circles
 
1:50 AM
@user214532545345 Hmm... Can't reproduce. What browser?
 
@Shog9 I'm surprised you didn't go for the "international incident" route and change it to printf("goodbye world!"); /* his suicide note was in PHP */
@user214532545345 Hmm, someone reported this earlier...
 
@TimStone Well, I was going for less offensive...
 
It is...to the C developers.
 
heh
 
Gah, I guess whoever reported it must have deleted the post, maybe the issue was transient for them.
 
1:53 AM
I also considered,
cout << "goodbye world!"; // his suicide note was in C++
 
I actually seem to recall someone bringing up this formatting example before, but I think it wasn't very well received and they deleted it.
 
I thought so too, but can't find any trace of it
 
I'm using Chrome
 
@Shog9 That's horrifically offensive. You're using namespace std;. Now we're all up in arms.
 
This is the sort of thing that always brings me back to stdio
 
2:01 AM
@user214532545345 Did you give F5 a go to clear your cached CSS just in case?
The other person who mentioned this was using Chrome too, but I'm unable to reproduce it on my end.
Hmm, I should remember not to leave multiple unzipped versions of the SO data dump lingering about my hard drive. 24 GB, reclaimed!
 
I cant reproduce problem in FF or IE8, it only happens in Chrome (21.0.1180.60). I just tried clearing the F5 & Ctrl + F5 but no luck. Then I cleared last 4 weeks of browsing data from chrome and Refresh but still the problem persists...
 
Hmm, the text on the Stack Overflow portion of your screenshot is larger than it should be...
 
something that stikes me as odd... I downloaded my so profile page (so that I can use firebug lite without the restrictions on viewing the CSS) and it works!
just not when I'm viewing the page online
@TimStone that was it!
You fixed it, one Ctrl + Scroll down and problem is fixed
 
Ah, fantastic :)
 
3:10 AM
@GeorgeMarian was here? Wow, long time George!
Speaking of time - time to un-jetlag.
 
user176326
@Shog9 Evan reverted your edit to his candidate post. Can you please change it back?
 
tsk! That was rude of you, @Evan
 
user176326
@Shog9 Thank you :]
 
user176326
It hurt my eyes
 
Next /election change? All plain text nominations. In fixed-width fonts. Let's see some ASCII art!
 
user176326
3:23 AM
Works for me. Nobody else used much, if any, formatting. I'm looking forward to making an ASCII Clippy (or Cloppy) and seeing what happens.
 
4:50 AM
Has there always been an outline around the selected voting arrow on posts, or is that new?
 
you mean the glowing shadow?
that's always been there
 
Haha way to pay attention @jadarnel27

Q: Revision mark-down source diff bug

nhahtdhCan anyone confirm whether this is a bug of SO, or this is a browser bug? The text is not wrap properly I'm using FF 14.0.1 on Win 7. The page in the screenshot is the revision page of this question. EDIT I fiddled around with the inspector in Firefox. After I change the property white-space...

 
@balpha I see that it is status completed. Should I not be seeing the bug?
 
that change isn't built out yet
 
I see. Please do note the build number when you say it is completed. makes it easy for lesser mortals :p
 
8:55 AM
The accounts cache is down again?
 
@animuson hmm seems to be just that one
looking
 
9:09 AM
it's back
I guess some sort of api hickup (the result is cached for 10 minutes, so it got refreshed now)

Are Careers suggestions/bug fixes appropriate on Meta?
 
@Moshe yes
 
Cool.
How's it going @Sathya?
 
@Moshe good Moshe :-) how have you been?

@balpha Oh. Well I guess I'm crazy as hell, then =)
 
@balpha Haha, wow. I had really never noticed that before last night. When I did, I thought there was something wrong with my eyes.

speaks in tongues
 
interprets
 
listens intently to @jadarnel27 to hear what he had to say.
 
I'm not repeating that filth. Watch your language, mootinator. This is a family establishment.
=P
 
Hmm, I'm worried that this fixed my bug.
read: function() { return self.quantityOt() - self.quantityOt() + self.quantityReg() }
 
@mootinator Um, watch doin' there? From a maths perspective, wouldn't "return self.quantityReg()" be sufficient?
 
3:00 PM
@jadarnel27 Yes, but in the magical bindings world of knockout.js I seem to have to evaluate quantityOt to get it to update when I want.
 
"From a maths perspective"? That's JS you're talking about, man.
 
Though I did just change it to {self.quantityOt(); return self.quantityReg(); } and that seems to make it happy.
 
@mootinator Oh, that's interesting. Huh.
@R.MartinhoFernandes A valid point you have there =)
 
If I have one complaint about this framework: Needs more jQuery integration.
I can't decide whether having me exercise various frameworks for several weeks means "you're good at learning new things" or "we can't think of anything more pressing for you to do and we're about to lay you off".
 
I'd go with the first one.
 
3:36 PM
Hmm, that doesn't seem quite right...
 
@TimStone what doesn't seem right?
 
The second item isn't new. I think the first item should have been rolled up into a "2 comments on...", but it wasn't.
(and obviously the other comment I believe should have been there isn't)
 
4:05 PM
Today is...stressful. Fridays are supposed to be awesome. And easy.
I did get a gold badge today though. So there's that.

Q: C++ style checker in perl

AvinashI am writing a C++ style checker in Perl. But I am having a difficult time in constructing regular expressions for basic C++ constructs. For example if loop can have following form: if( expression ) { or if ( expression ) ; What I want is if the code does not following following guidelines the...

yowzer!
 
4:59 PM
Seems like a bad idea. I'm surprised no one has linked to the HTML / Regex answer yet.
 
@jadarnel27 too much snark
 
@Flexo That's why I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet =) This is Stack Overflow, snark is what we do!
 
why does the user in the answer for: meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/142192/… look real/registered on the user card bit, but not on the comments?
 
@Flexo I imagine it hasn't something to do with the fact that the comments were left on the answer when it was on Stack Overflow.

A: Comment authors are not getting migrated

Nick CraverHere's the answer Jeff's referring to on why this doesn't happen currently: Comments by OP on migrated question become "anonymous" We may revisit hooking up comments in the future, but it's not a completely trivial problem (e.g. should reply to hook up as well? that's more info that n...

 
5:08 PM
Somehow they didn't didn't reassoci- damn you Tim Stone!
 
Basically, to perform the reassociation, the comments would have to store additional information about the user responsible for them on the original site, and it seems that they don't.
 
I had upvoted that question, too, and still didn't remember =)
 
If the user already exists, this can be done at the time of migration because the information is available then, but in this case it looks like the user registered afterward.

Well, I'm off work for the rest of the day. Neat.
 
6:59 PM
\o/
@PopularDemand Oh yeah...I remember that I started writing a query to answer your "Accept ALL the suggestions!" question, but I must have gotten interrupted...
Wonder if I still have that sitting around somewhere, hmm.
 
7:23 PM
Well, you have just under seven days to find it if you want those 500¢.
 
I want 500 character I don't have bound to a key.
 
It will probably be far superior to my query.
 
Return ALL the data.
 
I wonder if a timer system would improve suggested edits. Should probably wait until my bounty is over before I suggest that.

@Shog9 He edited it back again
 
Why wouldn't we want to display ALL the stupidity?

I had to bite my snarky tongue again.
I so want to post a comment about wanting a pony too here: stackoverflow.com/questions/11804292/…
/me will not stoop so low. I'll be strong.

@simchona Doesn't really matter at this point...
