I don't understand the purpose of putting tool-tips over nav menu items that are just the text of the menu item.

animuson

To be annoying?

jadarnel27

@animuson That's a definite possibility.

I figure some popular menu-ify jQuery plugin does it by default, and nobody turns it off. And / or no one is capable of just styling their own menu.

animuson

2:20 AM

I don't think a lot of people actually understand what the title attribute does or when it's supposed to be used.

jadarnel27

Heh, I just looked it up on MDN to make sure I wasn't the one misunderstanding.

I wonder if people think it's an accessibility thing.

animuson

A lot of people do confuse the alt and title attributes for one another.

bjb568

@jadarnel27 I do. I always write vanilla CSS/JS (mostly CSS), never any external resources except vimeo.

jadarnel27

@bjb568 Good for you!

More people should do that =)

Importing all of jQuery so you can fade your menu dropdowns in and out should be a crime.

Jan Dvorak

@rene unlikely to catch much

I need to start polling the question bodies and graylisting URLs

I thus give up on detecting answer spam. I'll keep the code in place, just comment it out.

Shadow Wizard

@JanDvorak why you give up?

Jan Dvorak

9:11 AM

low success rate (zero correlation), competes on API quota with my upcoming attempt at catching question spam. Perhaps I'll turn both on once the greylist implementation is done.

regexes work great to catch Baba and offensive posts, but they're pretty feeble against the dermatology spam.

The only tricky part of the greylist is to react fast enough while not overdraining the quota.

I could just scrape the question pages, but then Hadoop will hate me.

Or I could just neglect the big sites. Just cutting off SO from my attention will drop the quota usage dramatically.

The only other tricky part will be the 5MB limit on local storage. Does greasemonkey offer a bigger storage somewhere I haven't noticed?

Bart

9:39 AM

I guess you can drop SO though

Gets picked off pretty fast anyway

Jan Dvorak

should I drop SO, or the entire trilogy?

I will do some testing on how much quota I use under different settings.

@Bart Yep, and that requirejs question is a total outlier. I've never ever seen this. And I've seen all questions posted in this tag for many months now.

Bart

I find it equally hard to believe such scores are achieved in normal circumstances @3ventic. Something fishy is going on. If not a community battle, then something else.

3ventic

It just seems like a question that got a lot of people's attention, and people's opinions about it seem to be in 2 opposite camps.

what should this be closed as stackoverflow.com/questions/17403808/… ?

Bart

Should it be?

DroidDev

@Bart I don't know anything asked there, but because you've been good at SO, I am gonna trust you :P and flag it, but I don't know what flag should I raise?

Bart

@DroidDev If you're not sure, just don't. No need to follow me.

DroidDev

@Bart see, that's why I trusted you.

Bart

The OP deleted it. Problem solved. Unless he reposts it again.

Gah ... of course he did. But now he made it a cross-site duplicate.

I should have known.
