oh hey a CM :D
 
@ArtOfCode Isn't taryn a dba?
 
@Taryn mind giving this a feature, ref this? (Or talk to Shog, obviously, whatever works)
@Magisch uhhh yeah I totally remembered that
 
Once a CM, always a CM
 
have a close vote
 
3:06 PM
@Undo actually no. Bluefeet was a CM. @Taryn is a SRE/DBA. Totally different ;p
.... I probably should go to bed ;p
 
I can't closevote, but I did what I could
 
bed to go~
 
@ArtOfCode I did it, if I wasn't supposed to Shog will fix it
 
awesome, thank you :)
 
@Taryn Cheers :)
 
3:07 PM
(only took 3 tries to fix it)
 
@JourneymanGeek I was a CM, but I'll always do CM stuff, just like I'll always SO mod
 
ah
that's reassuring, I suppose
(even if I rarely mug you lot for stuff ;p)
 
I appreciate the lack of mugging though :P
 
 
2 hours later…

@PetterFriberg As I said in the link, blame my Team Dark counterpart (i.e. "Shadow the Hedgehog" aka @ShadowWizard ) for my current username.

@SmokeDetector fp-
 
6:13 PM
@Undo yeah, like any sufficiently traumatic experience... it stays with you ;)
 
@AdamLear same with being a SO mod, right?
 
annual blue congregation here, I see
 
@Taryn I only did that for like 2 months, so I think it mostly faded by now
 
lucky
 
what's going on on the stack exchange front?
 
6:20 PM
front? I'm solely in the back
 
I'm more to the side
 
I see
There doesn't happen to be a thing where you can view statuses of tickets you've filed, right?

Q: How to ask cashier out for date

J. DoeI am 21 years old and living in a large city in Germany where smalltalk in local markets is not a common thing. A new cashier joined my local food shop. She’s always at the checkout and never doing stuff like sorting products or cleaning the floor where I could actually ask her out. I am quite n...

Essentially a milder sex.SE.
@Sha won't be disappointed.
Or maybe he will. He's weird.
 
@M.A.R. hey, we have plenty of non sex questions
 
Ano
Wow, what a quick deletion!
@Shog9 Was it you?
 
6:33 PM
@Ano why?
 
He needs your help in reproducing a bug.
 
Ano
6:51 PM
@Shog9 Yeah, if you could please do that.
 
...
ok, i'm going to go get lunch
if you want me to do something, particularly something that requires posting a warning involving the link, tell me why first

@kjbeavers Yes I am! We've found a worthy successor for you :) How's the west coast?

> the first half of mid-May 2018
 
user315433
Also known as the second quartile of May.
 
user315433
Unless "mid-May" means the middle third, then it's the 3rd one-sixth of May.
 
mid may = 11-21st?
So the first half would be the 11-16th.
Second quartile would be 9-16? Not quite the same thing? :P
 
user315433
8:17 PM
Yes, this is the "middle third" interpretation of "mid". The first version was for "middle half".
 
8:35 PM
Random query... Can SEDE find the number of users with 10K+ on the most sites? I'm curious to know how common it is to have high-rep on multiple sites.
 
whatever happened with that tamagotchi widget that crushed the webserver?
 
... I guess that's a slightly more random query...
 
@Catija iirc no, since SEDE queries are limited to 1 site at a time
 
@Magisch "Stack Exchange" isn't a site? :P They're all compiled on the main site... I thought maybe it could pull from that.
 
Might be possible to pull out from Metasmoke data dump
 
8:48 PM
not sure if it displays sub accounts
 
bug: if script fails to run, the run button should re-enable
 
user315433
@canon It was an April 1 joke. So what happened is that April 1 passed.
 
maybe it could get revived, this time with unicorns
 
More specifically, what caused it to break the site? websockets gone wild?
 
user315433
Is it finally time to nominate SmokeDetector for SO mod?
 
8:57 PM
Probably not... that might be stacking the deck, considering non-SO mods have access to Smokey's account.
 
@Magisch Cross-site queries are possible.
@FTP For graduated sites, you also can't nominate anyone besides yourself.
 
user315433
That was a joke, but technically, Undo can login and post a nomination.
 
Don't think we've got the rep
 
9:14 PM
Hopefully the mods that come out of this like serial voting
silent cackle in the distance
 
9:28 PM
@Magisch Ask on the Q/A: who did you serial vote and why?
 
Ano
9:41 PM
@Shog9 What warning? That was completely separate.
The revision I refer to in the next message is of a wholly different post.

user315433
@SmokeDetector Calculus hates you back.

Hyperactive Monday for SO bulletin: spamflagging + Teams + election.
 
user315433

SD could leave an automatic comment, "This post was automatically flagged as spam; see [url]." Doesn't hurt when it's on actual spam; is informative when it's not.
 
I don't agree with the second half of that ...
 
user315433
Is it better to get N spam flags with no explanation?
 
Well, typically we don't see any of them
so we get 0 spam flag, it just goes away
 
user315433
Yes, but if it's a false positive, a mod will see it.
 
user315433
Usually a charcoal member comments with "oops". But nobody is online all the time.
 
11:13 PM
ah ya, but we're assured false positives are exceedingly rare and we don't need to worry.
 
user315433
Unrelated: Greyhound deletes information about past trips after a month. Perhaps it's exceedingly rare that someone would need it for travel reimbursement, but gah.
 
Ano
11:39 PM
@FTP I wouldn't want that. There was a long discussion in Charcoal HQ that if spammers find out about metasmoke, they could just show that page to their clients to get paid. This is why certain rejected edits show as 404 errors to logged-out users, to remove the incentive to spam via edits even though they get rejected.
