Lol, dammit, I really need to start watching what I say now.

Why @astro no has outspoken?

Fix XSS vulnerability - always a good commit message

@bjb568 What?

Oh – the badge?

yah

I don't participate in SO chat.

^^ same

Is that considered a participation badge for mod?

@hichris123 You can thank @JeremyBanks for that. :)

And the subsequent "Tim you dumbass pay attention to what you're writing" commit.

@AstroCB yes

That's ridiculous.

@JasonC I suspect that English competence may be part of the problem here. :(

@AstroCB "Noteworthy Badges" in mod candidate pages

@tchrist Mine or the OP's?

@JasonC La suya, no la tuya.

Well, time to get some stars in the mod chat...

@SmokeDetector wakaranai

@AndrewT. These are the ones used to calculate candidate score:

yay osx

yoyo sex?

BTW, those don't update

@AstroCB Yes, which means there are some inconsistencies in the system :/

@tchrist I… am not aroused.

@bjb568 I am. Now I'm not. Now I am. Now I'm not.

@bjb568 and I think we can all agree that that is a good thing

There are too many good candidates this election. =(

Stop being good at this, candidates!

Like me?

Yes.

@minitech Indeed. :(

@bjb568 This is why we have spaces.

Let's just give diamonds to the entire tavern and call it a day.

^

Let's fire that @minitech guy. I hear he's a slacker. :P

It’s funny, because I was considering that

Considering what?

Leaving to make a fourth space

nooooooo :(

My fourth pick could probably get more done than I do.

Aw, why? Are you getting burnt out?

But let’s just turn this into motivation to pick up the pace on flags \o/

I like you.

Oh man, that would annoy the people I work with to no end, if I got mod status for doing pretty much nothing.

@JasonC Nah! I’m just graduating this year, so, scholarship letters to be written, exam preparation, etc. etc.

It is a big time sap and will continue to be for the next three months.

Oh. Insanity awaits you. But only temporarily. Maybe.

Graduating from what level?

s/Insanity/regular expressions/ (how meta)

@bjb568 Just high school =P

Oh ok.

Lots of us here are in high school.

/middle school

@TimStone I don't know what you did to the "Meta participation" tab, but the stats are wrong for all of the candidates.

@bjb568 Yeah, it’s funny how that happened

@AstroCB How wrong?

And some of us are way past high school, but apparently still have the vocabulary of the average 5th grader. ... :(

@TimStone very wrong

:P

@TimStone The numbers are just...wrong.

@JasonC There’s a test for that. :) testyourvocab.com

@TimStone very very wrong

Hmm hmm hmm.

@tchrist Yeah I know, I took it. :P

They look correct to me?

The meta profile link links to the main site though, that's wrong.

Man, I remember applying for colleges. I told my parents I submitted like 15 applications, but really I only applied to the two hardest schools I wanted to go to, and somehow got accepted to one of them.

That could have turned out awkward.

That one's for me, but they're all wrong on my end.

@AstroCB You're comparing your Meta numbers against your SO profile

You have 143 answers and 19 questions on MSO

@TimStone Oh.

I'll figure out why that link is wrong though, sec

Then you're right about the link.

@JasonC lol

I skipped that process by dropping out of my senior year of high school and getting a job. ;D

I suppose that’s less expensive!

@minitech Quite the inverse, actually.

Haha. Yeah... I only lasted two years in college. I ended up with an internship freshman year that turned into my dream job.

@AlexisKing Oh, the whole “basic human needs” thing?

@minitech hmm?

I might do that with DD.

Of course no ads, so GIVE ME TEH MONEHZ!

@AlexisKing Food, lodging, etc.

@minitech Oh, I just meant that getting a job was the opposite of expensive. :p

I actually somewhat regret not graduating though, although I'm not sure why.

@JeremyBanks agree

(Now, admittedly, this dropping-out business might not have been by choice... mumbles something about depression and a suicide attempt)

@AlexisKing Oh. I was saying that getting a job was less expensive.

@JasonC meh, how much calc did you do?

*whistles*

I dropped out after one year and now I work at Stack Exchange.

@animuson doin' it right

@animuson yay you!

@AlexisKing Congratulations on recovering

@bjb568 In real life? A decent amount actually, but I was more heavy on the linear algebra.

Ah, ok. No PhD, but nobody likes a douche phd anyway.

@minitech Thanks! I'm still not exactly 100%, but I'm better. :)

I took two years of calc in high school, anyway.

@AstroCB Link should be fixed, sorry.

Only 2?

@bjb568 Haha, part of my first job entailed helping said douches get their PhDs, then taking the IP. I'm sure they thought it was a good deal at the time. evil cackle

@bjb568 I wasn't aware many people took more than two years of calculus in high school. o.O

I'll take 3! Or maybe more if I do some over the summer.

@bjb568 Pre-calculus doesn't, doesn't count.

I took half a year of calculus!

@TimStone No problem; thanks.

There’s only one course at my school

@AlexisKing I KNOW

@minitech You win! You didn't waste your time. ;)

@JeremyBanks Shouldn’t you get her permission first?

@bjb568 I'm honestly curious what those three years are, then.

@AlexisKing It wasn’t a waste of time! It was a lot of fun.

@tchrist Ba dum, bum.

It helped prepare me for the math competition I can’t go to.

@minitech I'm kidding, I loved calculus.

@AlexisKing BC exam this year, multivariable next year, then probably stats, then something else as dual enrollment

Pistols at dawn?

@bjb568 That's neat. I only took single-variable because I took statistics.

@JeremyBanks (Work a broad)

@pizza hence 3 not 4

@bjb568 I would've taken a third year, but... y'know, I didn't take my senior year of HS. :/

@pizza Very dully. :(

Ah.

@bjb568 Which courses?

LOOK UP

I get the feeling that my calculus is… less… than everyone else’s

We didn’t do multivariable anything

@bjb568 Oh – didn't get that far.

^

^^

@pizza It's very important for moderation.

post it!

@pizza Learned? Or retained?

So what sort of other fun things is everyone working on this instant

homework

and devdoodle.net

@minitech I'm about to give you guys tons of comment flags from data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/query/297140/…. Also, writing documentation for a project I just finished.

yeah, that

@JasonC “fun things” “writing documentation”

@minitech It's true. My life has reached the point where documentation is the fun part.

Sounds like a great life.

I want to be Jason C when I grow up!

Well, it's better than waiting around in an airport for delayed flights, which was my weekend.

ay, the weather, yeah, that

Nope. Not weather. The runway construction at JFK, causing average delays of 5-6 hours at departure airports all around the country.

Way more annoying than weather.

@bjb568 Is this built in Node?

Yes!

@bjb568 Without Express?

@JasonC they couldn't plan that out? O_o

@minitech Yes!

@bjb568 Good. Express has terrible query string parsing >=(

:D

@bjb568 You clearly have never been to JFK.

There's simple enough querystring modules.

(Throwing user input into arbitrary structures is my idea of fun!)

@JasonC I've heard about it.

@minitech s/input/

Everybody watch out, @minitech is encouraging @bjb's vanilla js rampage.

aww, used all my stars today already

@AlexisKing What?? What about my vanilla JS rampage

@minitech Quiet, you, you're being a bad influence on this young kitty. >:|

Down with jQuery and Backbone and Bootstrap and Ember and Angular and CoffeeScript and the internet and computers and electricity

Haha I just realized what your poster was @bjb.

Which reminds me... I have some photoshopping to do.

:D

… and user-agent sniffing. I am suddenly disappointed, @bjb568 =(

@minitech That's just an insult message for IE users.

I mean, what is this

if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Mobile') == -1) mainContentEl.style.minHeight = Math.max(0, innerHeight - (footerOff ? -4 : footer) - mainContentEl.getBoundingClientRect().top + document.body.getBoundingClientRect().top - (innerWidth < 1500 ? 6 : 12) - mainBottomPad) + 'px';

Media queries!! Media query it all the way

Already asked q on SO.

Not possible.

Maybe you shouldn’t be doing it then!

… what is it doing

JS is required for the body to expand so footer is on the bottom

I guess I might be able to hack thru it with table layout, but no.

Oh, no, that’s not necessary

Let me see if I can remember how to do that

I can give you access to the repo.

you do it like this

display: flex;

:)

@bjb568 Sure, why not

@AlexisKing <3

@AlexisKing Me likes, but gah those browser incompatibilities.

@bjb568 Flexbox is pretty well-supported now.

@minitech What's your github username? minitech?

@bjb568 It is!

k

Don’t tell me you have the GitHub education pack…?

@minitech no, they denied me

@bjb568 … they do that? Why?

"I want it" "It looks like yer not qualified"

Did they say why you weren’t qualified?

"why? what? I should be…" "no reply button"

Just got pinged for this, although I have no idea when it was posted. It seems I'm famous, or infamous, or notorious...or something

@pizza So it does, but the transcript said 3:30am, or thereabouts.

@HoboSapiens UTC time. I don't really know why the transcripts don't adjust for local time.

@AlexisKing UTC would make sense, since it's 3:44pm, UTC+12 here

It would help if the time gave the timezone, at least.

Tab indentation? Can I be your friend @bjb568

@bjb568 Y TE QUIERE LA INTERRED

@minitech YES

@tchrist AND I WANT interred? wat

And the Internet loves thee.

I'm helping with your Spanish. :-)

Y ME ... reads like Spanish.

Well, I have to write this letter for tomorrow

A lazy half note.

There you go @bjb

ugly code tho

@pizza I laugh at swastikas, too.

@bjb568 Yeah it's from some google thing, I was looking for something with no whitespace.

The transparency annoys me, but I couldn't come up with a good way to compose all the parts. That's why I don't do graphic design.

lol i seen your edit thought you already voted. :P

@inf I think Martijn does great job and may end up voting for him, but I'm long ways away from making any final decisions yet. I've seen many other tavern dwellers nominated already, does maybe your pin give an unfair advantage?

AHHH WHICH ONE IS THE FLAG BUTTON

^^ same question.

@SmokeDetector isn't that an answer though? that the problem was he just wasn't including the api key? so adding the api key solved it for him?

I got it; I managed to login. Spam is the second from the bottom on both questions and answers, right?

> Though I'm in 10th grade

@Roombatron5000 then it should be off-topic for problem can no longer ?

I wonder if he realizes that with his high rep, he's shoving people out of the election.

Probably not.

@bjb Do you want to respond, or should I?

You can

any meta complaint yet?

:O

@bjb568 It's 00:39; I might as well write one.

@SilentKiller not sure

i'm done with spam. just not sure about seed to be flagged or not.

@pizza question nuked.

@pizza But the UI is in Russian.

> @AmitJoki I can understand wanting to throw your name in, but it's important to consider that only 30 candidates can move on to the primary phase of the election. If the number of nominees goes over this threshold (which, at this rate, it probably will), only the top 30 candidates by reputation will move on.

> Considering your high rep, you could be pushing possibly more qualified candidates out of the election by deciding to move on, so while it's entirely your decision, you should be serious about running if you're going to fill a spot. – AstroCB just now

He sounds sincere enough.

I'll write that Meta post now, though.
