Simulation hypothesis

The simulation hypothesis contends that reality is in fact a simulation (most likely a computer simulation), of which we, the simulants, are totally unaware. Some versions rely on the development of simulated reality, a fictional technology. This technology has been a central plot device of many science fiction stories and films. == Origins == There is a long philosophical and scientific history to the underlying thesis that reality is an illusion. This skeptical hypothesis can be dated in as far back as ancient Greek philosophy. == Simulation argument == In its current form, the Simula...

Grphm. There is a flaw in my spam flagging workflow which I don't know how to fix... When Smokey reports spam, I get a desktop notification with the text of report. Clicking the notification opens a new browser tab with the post. I flag and close the tab...
Problem: now I'm in some other tab of the browser, not the one I was working in when the report came.

Userscript time?

user259867

Well, this is my script that does most of that. But how does Chrome determine which tab to show after I close the one with spam?

@Doorknob our dutch government protects our privacy by having all websites show a confirmation box: Yes, I accept the cookies. By not having that box you risk getting a fine...as website owner that is...

@HomegrownTomato It should go back to the one you were working on...

user259867

@hichris123 If I press Ctrl-T and then Ctrl-W, I am indeed back in the tab I was. But not when the new one was opened by the extension.

I use chrome.tabs.create({url: ...});, nothing fancy.

user259867

My current conjecture is that since the tab is created by a background page (which is just js with no html), that page is understood as a parent of the new tab. So Chrome would normally go back there, but since it can't, it just picks a tab (the one furthest on the right, it seems) to make active.

Can anyone tell me why did this spam (chat.meta.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/3531418#3531418) vanish so fast? I blinked and it was gone.

rene

@Lamart 6 people flagged it! probably one SE employee was involved, as it normally requires 7 mortals to get rid of it

@rene I thought it's 6. We often see 7 because someone downvotes.

@rene How do they enforce that confirmation box thingy for foreign sites?

user259867

7:32 PM

it takes six spam flags for that to happen

rene

@Louis I have no clue ... I guess the politicians went into blank stare when asked that question....

hichris123

Not sure if anyone noticed, but the 2FA proposal was declined.

@hichris123 So beautiful. I think I might cry...

rene

@HomegrownTomato 6 it is then

Lamart

@rene Maybe I was slow in refreshing the page and missed out the fact that other users might have been fast enough to flag. Thanks.

I noticed. I was really surprised (in an unhappy way) that they were even considering it. The contrast between that and "no developer time to fix bugs A-Z, improve pages A-Z, implement features A-Z..."

hichris123

@HomegrownTomato I think it makes sense for OpenID security... but I see your point.

rene

@hichris123 they have a docker thingy that let you play with bosun
