Yay, another new account
I'd love to know if he wonders why the downvotes come in reasonably fast now. If he has any clue we're actively looking for him
 
Maybe it's a bot?
 
@JanDvorak around?
(vs?|l[ae]|baba(ji?)|....
what's the first two bits supposed to match?
OK, I can see the vs
what else?
 
la-le to check everything in french
 
@Bart You meant it wasn't him the author of the "We hakz U all make me a mod" gibberish? he must have noticed.

Is the bad-connection duplication happening to you too @SPArchaeologist?
 
12:11 PM
yep, but where I am now it is normal
um - stackoverflow slowing down.
 
12:29 PM
@michaelb958 now it is back to normal. Could be a result of the attack attempts from that two days old threat post, but I somehow doubt it.
 
12:42 PM
I've now an account on opendata beta and flagged that spam post
 
Hello rene.
 
Hello Laszlo Papp :-)
 
1:03 PM
11 tavern notifications ftw :D
@Manish Are you around?
 
Grrr
 
That is not usefull at all
 
gah, looks like I just missed him
@Manish Ping me some time before 8:10 and I'll turn off my bot so you can turn yours on
 
@Bart Feel free to VTC on the question of course.. :-)
 
1:08 PM
yep. He said java. Shouldn't the anti-spam filter catch that?
 
I thought only c++ was spam?
 
Done @Duncan. And edited. Pointless, I know. But I was annoyed.
 
c++ and java are spam, VB is considered hate speech
 
FYI - Chat is now wired into our spam protection layer. If it won't let you edit or post, it won't let you even enter a room.
That should solve the 30 Hitlers problem.
 
But as long as you guys haven't figured out I'm the black magic spammer, I should be fine, right @TimPost?
 
1:17 PM
@Bart Yeah, you're still good.
 
Phew
 
@TimPost about 1h ago we noticed a slow down on some sites. Was something going up?
 
Not that I know of
But I don't always pay attention to the elephant seals as they mate.
 
Now there's a mental picture
 
@TimPost good to know, still thinking about that hack menace posted 2 days ago. Not that I really trust that, but worth to keep an eye open anyway
 
1:43 PM
@TimPost that's awesome!

Q: QSGContext missing on Qt Android

JudithI am developing an application for Android. The development is done on Linux, using Qt Creator with C++ and QML.

I'd like to see stats on how our spam handling time has improved since we got @DoorknobofSnow's and @Manishearth's chatbots.
 
Haha. We ask to not have multiple bots post the same thing. One of them gets moved to another chat. User still takes it and posts it here ... ah well.
 
I thought Doorknob had killed his!

GENTLEMEN! I have become far too Meta.
A fortnight I need to settle my brain.
See you later.
 
4:28 PM
Does anyone see a reason why this might have been deleted?
The first version of the answer was link-only, but it was deleted 8 revisions later
 
@JeroenVannevel Can you post a screenshot for non-10k users please?
 
I'm not entirely sure mods see the current version when handling a flag
 
@Manishearth Do they?
 
Yeah, that's what I figured. I feel like they should be shown both, to avoid this stuff
Revision when its flagged and the current revision
 
4:33 PM
@JeroenVannevel It looks good to me. @ThiefMaster Are you here?
 
@Bart do they what?
oh
We see the current version. COnfusing sometimes
 
Ah okay. That blows my theory out of the water. :D
Thanks
 
hmm maybe i had the flag page open for some time and then processed that flag

HarishWhat are the risks and advantages of using BPM for microfinance

How did this survive for 5 years?
 
4 years :P
 
Why haven't you nuked it yet @animuson?
 
6:21 PM
Nov 26 '13 would have been 5 years...
 
oh.
so you're going to nuke it?
I thought you were talking about being closed.
 
The -1 answer has a spam flag, and I was about to nuke it for spam and then reaized it was from a 38.5k user and was like WTF?
 
hah
It looks very nuked now.
Much closed very nuked wow.

I can't imagine what will happen to this flags queue when I start working again...
 
Flags will start flagging themselves for attention.
 
Yay Cinder is almost done!
 
Cinder?
 
Next is Grassroot.
 
@Bart It's a gizmo for spam. It does two things: adds a spam button to the toolbar on each post (to be moved to the flag dialog at some point), and adds a thing in the sidebar:
When someone clicks the spam button, the post gets added to that list for everyone with the extension installed.
 
6:38 PM
Ah. You had me confused with libcinder.org
 
hah
 
Hmm, I think this should really be closed, but what would be an appropriate close reason?
 
@Undo What about Grassroot?
 
@Bart belongs on codereview?

6:43 PM
Nah, too crappy. Especially when the next comment is "what does this code do?".
 
@Bart maybe a custom reason and sending it to code review?
 
@animuson We need to think up a thingy for the name to be for.
 
@rene We don't migrate crap.
 
I don't think we should be sending questions/users to CR just because they ask for optimization. First of all, there's not really anything to optimize, and with the OP not even understanding what the code does in the first place, the whole question makes no sense.
 
7:18 PM
Ah, sorry about that one @rene. Seems my edit kicked yours out.

Doorknob of SnowI accidentally touched "upvote" twice, and I saw this message: I'm assuming it meant "You cannot perform this action for another 1 second," but there's so many errors I can't be sure ;-)

That is the next question that I flag for closing!

@Mods I have an issue of personal privacy.
A user of the Javascript chat room just posted my personal phone number into a google indexed chat, which is scraped for emails I already know by spam bots.
I know nothing of the context, maybe they were playing a game? Either way, I use this phone for work. I cannot be dealing with any stupid shit from this and posting that at all is reckless and disrespectful.
 
@TimPost ^
 
They now say that it's perfectly fine, and I shouldn't complain.
 
Yeah no, that's not cool.
 
fiddles around with fancy chat tools to see if I can do anything
Ooo what's this button do?
 
Ouch! Dammit! Stop pressing that!
 
7:47 PM
I have a link to the message.
 
And yeah, not cool @Jhawins.
 
I believe mods/owners can see deleted messages still?
 
Well that's not useful... What's the point of a Purge History button if it doesn't get rid of the "Last version before deletion" too? Pffft! Useless I tell you! USELESS!

Looks like it was her first message all day even!

I never did decide who to cast my third vote on...

I have a big feeling I'm not going to be one of the elected though.
 
Why? So you'll have more moderator pawns in your pocket? Psh.

No, in an election
 
not sure about elections, though

"Any community member with 150 reputation may vote in the election."
 
I should suggest 25 edits and hope they get approved by the time the election ends so that I can vote for @3ventic :D

Yup
another one
does anyone know if there's a suggestion limit?
 
Yeah
I think
but I've seen people suggest like 30 edits a day
 
good
 
8:26 PM
I think there's a limit on how many you can have active at one time.
 
That could be the only limit, actually.
for registered users that is
 
@animuson ;(
Well anyway, someone's approving them.
 
@Undo someone

A: Is there a definition of 'too minor' edits?

Billy MailmanThe proper definition of a Too Minor edit is this: There is no such thing. There are only Too Minor suggested edits. And they have two reasons behind them. Firstly, as others have pointed out, the suggestor gets two Rep, and that isn't something that should be handed out for teensy tiny little t...

@3ventic How much rep do you need to vote?
 
@hichris123 150

I think it's 350 on SO
 
300 is required for nominating yourself

Gahhh taxes are so confusing. :(((((
> Amounts entered for the highlighted fields must be greater than zero. If these amounts are zero or less, please delete this document.
So, if I theoretically made $50,000 and they didn't withhold any state taxes, I don't have to enter that document? That makes no sense. -.-
 
hah, i'm really glad i don't have to pay tax here
 
Taxes are confusing
 
I'm tempted to just file without that document. It was only $95 and I'm 100% sure they are not going to come after me to pay a few dollars in state taxes when I'm getting $180 back from other jobs. >_>
 
But you posted about it here, so we have evidence that you knew you should :P
