If I'm being picky, one is about the general phase and one is about the sites in that phase.
But probably nothing in practice
 
if they aren't to be made synonyms the tag wikis (or rather the excerpts) should definitely make clear when to use one and when the other.

@cybermonkey I removed my upvote because I just realize neither of the answers there answer the OP's question.
 
wot
 
@JasonC I edited my answer 30 secs ago, it does now.
 
12:26 AM
I don't think it does. Unless I'm slow. The OP is trying to find a file name that starts with some string, and then delete that file. The equivalent of del THISTEXT*.txt.
 
@JasonC quote from the op: 'I have found a way to detect it, but i don't know how to delete it.'
then they posted their code that finds the file
I incorporated that into my answer.
ok, now it does, SO editor caused me to miss a line out
 
@cybermonkey Shouldn't you be iterating over paths() and deleting those instead of deleting fileToRemove, though? The whole topic is starting to confuse me.
 
@JasonC All verified and working:
 
@cybermonkey That doesn't match the code in your answer though.
 
@JasonC Updating it now....
 
12:39 AM
@cybermonkey Just so you know, you do realize I'm going to continue giving you a hard time in the comments there, because I'm sadistic, right?
 
@JasonC Already realised that.
 
@SmokeDetector fpu
 
@AlexisKing Registered question as false positive, whitelisted user and added title to Bayesian doctype 'good'.
 
@cybermonkey I'm done nitpicking btw. Although I still think you should have used exceptions. I may just be an unusually big fan of exceptions though.
 
@JasonC meh, I was just being lazy, I've been awake for 20 hours, need my beauty sleep.
maybe tomorrow or something, I routinely go through my questions & answers and update them
 
12:46 AM
On a different note, I haven't used VS in so long. I kinda miss the older themes. The borderless trend in internal controls kind of bugs me.
Or maybe it's the low contrast? I can't put my finger on it.
 
@JasonC there's a black theme you can change to in VS' options, but I dislike it.
 
Not enough yellow? I miss the watered-down urine theme. That's it.
Oh! It's the shading! Does the newest one have a shaded control theme?

user259867
@JasonC "Blacklisted user" is a statement of fact, it doesn't need any confirmation.
 
op edited answer, cleared flags
 
Yeah but you still have to take the effort to read that statement. Which is infinitely greater effort than not reading it. :P
 
1:25 AM
such a fail ASCII art, flagged
 
Wait, if OP himself edits does it still clear flags?
 
spam/abusive flags? not sure about that
I think need 1 more flag to confirm this
 
very edgy edge case… not sure if SE bothered to make an exception since I know post revisions in general clear flags
 
Pretty sure the flags are still there
 
based from previous edited spam experience, the flags should be still there

I found this new yummy lemonade at Trader Joe's called "margarita mix". It's so much better and less watered down!
 
You should switch to lime-ade. The best lime-ade is called limoncello

> Traditionally, it is made from the zest of Femminello St. Teresa lemons, also known as Sorrento or Sfusato lemons.[3][4] Lemon zest, or peels without the pith, is steeped in rectified spirit until the oil is released.
Now I'm confused. How can limeade have lemon in it but no lime?
 
The same way margarita mix can be full of lime juice and make great lemonade
 
Makes perfect sense now!
sorta
Maybe I should just stick to lemon-lime soda, much less confusing.
 
I recommend quicklime and Lemon Pledge

"revision event" is pretty broad

Like, edit.
 
deletion? Sure
Rollback? If the flag was raised on the revision that was rolled back.
Normal edit? No.
 
@bjb568 No on those ones; one was just removed finally.
 
Oh ok, the system is sane. Very surprising.

Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a theory in psychology proposed by Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" in Psychological Review. Maslow subsequently extended the idea to include his observations of humans' innate curiosity. His theories parallel many other theories of human developmental psychology, some of which focus on describing the stages of growth in humans. Maslow used the terms "physiological", "safety", "belongingness" and "love", "esteem", "self-actualization", and "self-transcendence" to describe the pattern that human motivations generally move through. Maslow...
