@JoshC Between that, and the different revision numbers, and the fact that it (apparently) doesn't use the CDN for much, I think it's just flat out 'on a different circuit' to the rest of SE.
@Bart Nothing like being thanked while you're being told you're wrong, really takes the edge off. I hope my edit sticks, keeping the two useful sentences out of the political book

Thoughts on the question below? It's an exact duplicate of meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/99136/…, but closing it would rather ruin the effort to garner support.
In the spirit of a similar project at WebApps, how about cleaning up some URL shortners from Stack Overflow?

@axrwkr no specific reason, other than that I'm looking to buy a used shelf, saw this, and found it funny... just bad luck for the owner that the Street View mobile happened to catch his store in such an unfortunate moment.
@Bart lol
The "slum lords" thing in the Google maps result further up is really hilarious, though, and totally bizarre. Looks like they're using sentences from reviews to label locations now? Never heard of that, but I don't have any other explanation
If you get an error message saying not to include JS Fiddle links without code, that's encouraging you to reduce external dependencies by including the code here; it's not encouraging you to increase external dependencies by using a redirect link to JS Fiddle.

The point is that you should include the relevant code into your questions, making them self-contained. The point isn't however, to obfuscate your jsFiddle link to work around this warning.
@Bart well... on the face of it, it seems that the mechanism that flags the post does so when there is just a link to another site (or perhaps specifically jsfiddle) without some sort of source code... but i think i came up against it once in the not so distant past, but i can't remember what it was, and i thought to myself, if a person had been judging that, they would have let it through
When somebody replies to an older message in chat, you have to click the "in reply to" arrow and jump to the message to get the context. That makes you leave the current position in the transcript, and old content possibly even needs to be loaded first. That's often a bit disrupting, especially w...
