None of the SE sites were born on today's date... but I missed Webmasters earlier, they launched 2010-07-08. In compensation, today's post is from them: How to register a .er domain?

Eritrea is not a happy place, and it's doubtful that will change any time soon. Wikipedia: "...Reporters Without Borders classified the media environment in Eritrea at 178 out of 178, the lowest possible rating and below that of totalitarian North Korea at 177. According to the BBC, "Eritrea is the only African country to have no privately owned news media", and Reporters Without Borders said of the public media, "[they] do nothing but relay the regime's belligerent and ultra-nationalist discourse... state-owned news agency censors news... Independent media have been banned since 2001." — Arcane Engineer Jan 3 '14 at 21:31

I wanted to find out how much traffic I get from the websockets for /realtime tab... but devtools/Network in Chrome shows 0B for the websockets connection... ?
 
user259867
 
user259867
Maybe it will only tell me after the connection is closed?
 
user259867
Tested by closing it... nope, still 0B
 
@NormalHuman maybe is aggregated since since start?
nope, FF behaves the same way...
 
user259867
Looks like we might have a Super User question here...
 
3:19 AM
wonder if this can help blog.kaazing.com/2012/05/09/…
 
user259867
Looking into it now. Odd that the status is always shown as "Status Code:101 Switching Protocols", while the connection functions normally.
 
@NormalHuman theoretically possible. Realistically not gonna happen :P
I should open source that
 
@NormalHuman I'm presuming that they don't actually show the ws transfers on the network tabs... quite unexpected
 
@NormalHuman That just means that the connection is upgraded from ___ to Websockets, I think.
 
user259867
 
user259867
3:24 AM
^ Okay, I see the transfers now and their size... apparently, Chrome expects me to practice mental arithmetics adding these up.
 
> Most people don't know what counts as CSS3 anyway (I don't, and I've been doing this for years).
that's the same with almost any language I know...
 
user259867
But that's enough to estimate the amount of ws traffic... somewhat nontrivial when I'm using my phone's data.
 
@NormalHuman Would it be okay for me to add you to the Charcoal team on GH?

I don't think he ever approved one. Some nonsense about sleeping... excuses
 
Check your GH inbox
 
I would approve any PR that doesn't trigger flakes...
 
user259867
@Undo Got it, but it was a regular email from GH, not a GH notification.
 
I mean, everyone of them trigger it... at which point I would have added a pre-push hook on git
cc @hichris123
 
3:41 AM
@Braiam hard to do on GH
 
@Undo mm...? client side hooks should be fine...
 
And it has to pass everything before Smokey will eat it anyway, so meh
@Braiam oh, yeah maybe
 
> The pre-commit hook is run first, before you even type in a commit message. It’s used to inspect the snapshot that’s about to be committed, to see if you’ve forgotten something, to make sure tests run, or to examine whatever you need to inspect in the code.
we got a winner
 
So @Normal, run !!/pull in CHQ after making a commit and the tests passing for it to pull everything and restart. You know the drill.

Nuke it
 
oh and what is tag medical about?
(got from same question)
 
Looks like spo2 has to do with that unit... the comments on youtube even look like spam
 
That seems like it's not actually a programming related tag
 
5:34 AM
so....any use of it?
 
I'm going to post a burninate request for it. It's a meta-tag. The fact that the code is concerning medicine is irrelevant
 
I don't think so, but I'm tired so that may come into play.
 
@James yup, go ahead....and don't forget to post a funny title ;)
 
'Cauterise ' is what I'm going with
considering its a burninate request
 
haha, that qualifies
 
user259867
5:37 AM
@James I'm not convinced, e.g., this question: Using Protocol Buffers in Highly Regulated Environment (Medical) suggests it somehow matters for implementation.
 
@NormalHuman I disagree, is there a tag for code that is dealing with life critical situations?
I'd think a better tag would be
 
user259867
Undo was working on EMR if I remember correctly... for example, question: EMR (Electronic Medical Record) standard record format? concerns this.
 
user259867
It is a distinct kind of programming problems.
 
user259867
5:41 AM
The tag [emr] is, however, used for another unrelated thing with the same abbreviation.
 
@NormalHuman I'm still going to disagree, that should be tagged with because he is asking about if there is a standard format for medical records
the fact that they are medical records can be included in the question body, but no one is going to specialise in . Because if they did wouldn't they be a doctor?
But I'll include your arguments in the burninate request
 
what about attention?
 
Aww c'mon, the joke is cut off

@PraxisAshelin There is. Season 5 has been split in half.
Was it because that way the announced holidays episodes will fall near the actual holyday they reference?
Or because they need EG3 to be placed in the middle of the season?
we will see...
