@hichris123 you mean 127.0.0.1
0.0.0.0 is the whole network
user259867
Graduation of Chemistry means they'll have mod election soon... time to hurry up harvest the rep there.
@Braiam "whole network"?
In the Internet Protocol Version 4 the address 0.0.0.0 is a non-routable meta-address used to designate an invalid, unknown or non applicable target. To give a special meaning to an otherwise invalid piece of data is an application of in-band signaling. The only thing is that you're not saying "all addresses should have access" -- that's done in your firewall(s) and/or the server software and/or other security layers like tcpwrappers. 0.0.0.0, in this context, means "all IP addresses on the local machine" (in fact probably, "all IPv4 addresses on the local machine"). So, if your webserver machine...
That's... one of the worst wikipedia articles I've ever read.

Alas, Chemistry users tend to write better than, say, SharePoint users. Getting 50 rep thru from suggested edits is not as easy.

Ah, but I can fix MathJax in places, with their \ce extension thing

ahaha
@hichris123 that should be old
SSL adds at most 1-2% load

@uni I finally bothered to read your TOS. Is "The Service requires an Internet connection to use." really necessary?
> facepalming too hard to cause physical pain
needs "so as to"
Meh, I'll put my legal hat on and try to write my own version.
@bjb568 Is your "legal hat" one of the ones with a propeller on top?
8
yes
It rotates in the wrong direction tho, as to squeeze my head rather than cause my hat to fly away.
Reopen + close as dupe would be nice.
00:45
@bjb568: yes
[citation-needed]
I've never seen something like that in a tos before
Hai guys
... I doubt you read ToS's - I do though.
then find another one with that
So I'm going to throw out the experience card here.
00:47
@James hiya
what the hell is a ToS? :P
@Unihedron Just find an example
@James: Terms of Service
I am aware, I was being facetious
00:52
@hichris123 ooo, this should be fun...
Teacher started writing hashtags on the board near the quotes she wrote, now these lessons are really exhausting...
> That's so easy to say is it when you're talking about Netflix isn't it?
dat grammar…
@hichris123 I'm not sure why firefox slows to a crawl when opening it... but, wtf?
@hichris123 Hrm, the pro-HTTPS camp seems really hand-wavey when it comes to actually explaining why HTTPS supposedly makes anything better except reducing MITM. I don't think setting up HTTPS is significantly difficult like the detractors claim either, but it is prohibitively pricey to use on everything right now.
01:07
BTW, @uni, you can't say "trolling" in a tos because it doesn't have a real definition (unless you define it).
01:23
In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion. This sense of the word troll and its associated verb trolling are associated with Internet discourse, but have been used more widely. Media attention in recent years has equated trolling with online harassment...

@bjb568 Nothing about slangs makes them unviable to be included in a legal document.
It's better to be more specific.
"consist entirely of content from another source, even with proper attribution" <- this is just blatantly wrong because it ignores fair use and usage that complies with licenses distributing the original source.
I don't think an answer that contains no original material is helpful.
And I definitely can't see how a question or program or comment can satisfy that.
We're trying to generate content, not just be a search engine. Stack Overflow can outsource googling, but we won't.
01:27
How is "guidelines to being helpful" part of a ToS?
(oh well, not my loss)
Well, if you're using our site, I kind of want you to try to be helpful…
@bjb568 Then say that?
Well, that's common sense and not very legal.
@bjb568 You break most of those rules every day in the Tavern.
2
rules are meant to be broken
I'm sure I violate the SE tos too.
But, if the wabsite doesn't care, they don't have to take action.

How's this @nicael?
so... if I suspect I can erase all of your data, am I allowed to attempt to do this to verify some of the tables aren't protected against deletion?
@TimStone Preventing MITM attacks is a non-trivial improvement.
@Unihedron Well, I thought I could delete some of your data, but I wasn't sure, so I dropped a table. But then I realized... how could I be sure that I could drop the other tables, too? So then I dropped all of those. And yet, still, I wasn't sure if this same strategy would affect the backups, and of course, you know, I needed to test it to find out...
@AlexisKing YES!
@JanDvorak no tables here, I'm using nosql!
01:49
@bjb568 yes?
@bjb568 You know, some people take pride in knowing when to use the right tool for the job. I'll let you interpret that comment as you will.
I do too!
@Unihedron well, what do you think?
@TimStone Is it? I mean... CloudFlare...
If the community has edited an answer to discourage all use, and the warning message stands for a while without the author or any other users improving the post or objecting to the warning on technical grounds, we should then consider deleting the post. Keeping around answers while telling nobody to never use them looks goofy, and if they have a lot of votes many people will probably keep using them anyway. — Jeremy Banks ♦ yesterday
sounds sensible
@bjb568 needs (significant) improvement
01:51
aww
well, make specific complaints
I ain't complaining
I know it's missing stuff, and there's probably spelling mistakes of course.
You should totally ship this
@Unihedron comments, whatever
@Unihedron Really?
Yes!
The people in the Tavern totally can't wait to perform any action that is allowed by the software that powers the site while exploiting it to the extend needed to confirm its severity.
I have a question though, why cc-by-sa 4.0 instead of cc-by-sa 3.0?
01:54
4 > 3
is that so?
What, you think I have an actual reason?
remind me never to ask you for significant advice
@bjb568 Well, cc-by-sa4.0 allows even commercial use without attribution.
@Unihedron I'm moderately concerned that you might have considered that before now.
@AlexisKing ... Hey.
01:55
@Unihedron I may have clicked the wrong buttons
Well, I want the one with attribution. I like attribution.
3.0
or 3.0A
> Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.
4.0 says that.
(on the idiotpage, not the actual license)
read the license itself on the part about commercial use
01:57
@Unihedron why not cc-by-sa-nc?
(or whatever the NC one is)
not constructive :p
nc is non-commercial
I know
nd is no derivatives
Meh, I think it's reasonable to quote part of a DD answer in a commercial blog.

I would say "What happened to not disrespecting others by wasting their time with this crap?" but I guess that's a newer idea.
@hichris123 CloudFlare by itself will only give you CloudFlare -> Client, which is great, but obviously doesn't resolve all of the concerns about interception

@bjb568 Not that bad, but slightly weird. Father's email? No area code for the phone number. No contact information of the previous boss, who'd be the main reference for this application.

A: Does this prose read well?

Alexis KingIt's alright. It's readable, but I think it could flow more nicely. Currently, it's a little choppy in parts, and some of the ideas are unnecessarily disconnected. I'd combine the first two sentences to better express the effect/cause relationship. Furthermore, I would emphasize that intelligenc...

@AlexisKing is it off-topic?
@AndrewT. Maybe. I didn't bother to check. :)

I hate this php stuff, it never just works

Opening a project/file from IDE may inadvertently modify some files tho.
nah its saying it can't connect to the database, but none of the connection information from yesterday has changed
@James If your unit tests are connecting to a database, you're unit testing wrong.
03:23
@AlexisKing its php.... everything is wrong
Fair enough. :p

Presumably a Korean one.
Also, I legitimately can't find the "bad keyword" in that post.

07:34

Ah, so you missed the Close Vote event ? ;)

Ah, yup, that's the reason why I did not keep the Hangul regex the first time we got a spam wave like that.

do you mean, automatically?

@JanDvorak I mean that if I find a message that has been moved, I will see a tooltip that tells me the name of the room it came from, but no link to see the original "position" it had in that room
