Nothing against the existence of that blog post. But as a math site user, I could care less about some program for NYC-based wannabe developers.

@bjb568 We are yet to discover the existence of fonts other than Arial.

Q: Is there a solution for the error "The property 'ShouldLoop' was not found in type 'LoopingSelector'

In Visual Studio 2015, sometimes this error is produced: The designer itself looks like this: After recompilation, the error disappears, so it's not too bad. Additional information PageContent is a user control, displaying a page header and a content area the project is using version 10....

@Shog9 Is the request to disallow unregistered questions on Math still premature? The login system seems stable as of recent.

Shog9

Yeah

Mostly feature-complete is probably a slightly more apt description than "stable"

Okay.

Hello

Q: Menu to show daily progress towards vote / flag limits

I want to track how many of what (regular votes, comment votes, close votes, delete votes, flags, etc... excluding review actions) I have left throughout the day. I find I often will run out of one of these things because I haven't paced myself properly. Unfortunately, it can get hard to pace you...
