Computer-integrated manufacturing

Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is the manufacturing approach of using computers to control the entire production process. This integration allows individual processes to exchange information with each other and initiate actions. Through the integration of computers, manufacturing can be faster and less error-prone, although the main advantage is the ability to create automated manufacturing processes. Typically CIM relies on closed-loop control processes, based on real-time input from sensors. It is also known as flexible design and manufacturing. == Overview == Computer-integrat...

@NormalHuman probably because you never had "reputation event" on the main site, so there's nothing to trigger a reputation synch.

Caching!

Caching for months, @bjb568?

If I see a post that can only be edited by the OP, what should I choose? Unclear?

S.L. Barth

Been a while since I last did Triage and checked Meta on it. I think the OP should at least have a comment, asking for clarification.

Been there dunnit

Can you post the actual response instead of images? That will make it easier for all of us to help you out. — UNICYCLEZ R DE BEST IN DE HERE 2 mins ago

That question seems answerable - in fact, it has an upvoted answer, with a commenter complimenting the answerer.

"Edit" seems the right option here. Or "Skip", of course.

And for Homework questions?

S.L. Barth

@bjb568 Maybe, but only because caching 4ever would be contradictory to the purpose of caching....

@UNICYCLEZRDEBESTINDEHERE Homework questions or homework dumps?

Homework dumps without any effort or code

S.L. Barth

I usually VTC them as Too Broad, and downvote. Not entirely sure what the mods make of Too Broad flags for homework. @EdCottrell, as a mod, what's your position?

@NormalHuman This is how you implement anti-Area 51? By "Anti-follows"?

You could actually make a kind of parody site that works that way... although it won't do much good.

@S.L.Barth same here.

S.L. Barth

@EdCottrell Thanks. I haven't monitored Meta much lately, so I wasn't sure what the position on these things is.

Ed Cottrell

we don't really need flags for that, though - they will probably be declined because the post will be voted into oblivion and closed without mod help.

so, for users without the rep to cast a CV: just downvote and move on.

S.L. Barth

@EdCottrell It was really @UNICYCLEZRDEBESTINDEHERE's question, he just got access to Triage review.

user259867

@EdCottrell they can cast close flags, which don't go to your queue

So... skip?
