Is -5 an integer literal? Or is 5 a literal, and -5 is an expression with unary minus taking a literal as an argument? The question arose when I was wondering how to hardcode smallest signed integer values.
(for those that are interested, I made a room to monitor an RSS feed tracking the number of SO posts; I figured it would be easier than everyone refreshing or using scripts, but sadly it only appears to update every five minutes or so):
Today, I was foolish enough to use the rollback button. Now on stack overflow I no longer have 3 silver badges and 14 bronze badges. My joy in opening the website every day in a pinned tab in Chrome is severely diminished now. FML
I know that badges once given can't be taken away. What's the nex...
What do the icons in the following screen capture mean? The icons are from Subclipse, an SVN plugin for Eclipse.
I'm not asking about the base file icons, I know those (HTML file and Java source file). I'm asking about the right-pointing dark gray arrows, which are labeled "outgoing." What doe...
@JohntheSeagull I was going to say with something like this, but that's quite low; I'm guessing deleted posts aren't in SEDE but they are counted in the total on the homepage
Here on Meta, with revision 2010.10.7.4, I am seeing a couple of issues. (Perhaps these are related to the data center migration or a prior revision from today - WA and SO have revision 2010.10.6.1)

Or boyfriend. It's all good.
Here's a brief description of the issue at hand:
Said girlfriend knows how to download torrents (of Linux ISOs) (...) despite multiple warnings from Boyfriend regarding random fun things like spamalware
Girlfriend disregards advice

@rchern Ok, you're right, that made no sense to anyone else, LOL. It was funny because I actually tried to view your associated accounts earlier today in response to something you said
@MichaelMrozek - Na, I have a pretty big CD collection; things just have to pass the hearing test first
Then they get ripped to FLAC on my machine
Though I do object to supporting an industry with a flawed/out-dated business model, where they have to take legal action against consumers to maintain position
I've read it twice, at different times, and I just don't get Jeff's comment here; would someone explain it in such a way that my feeble mind has a chance of understanding?
I thought about posting a question like this earlier, but drafts only autosave every 45 seconds. I can type a lot of words in 45 seconds, and I wouldn't want to lose them by accidentally leaving the page.
Of course, this comes down to "what would bother you more, losing 45 seconds worth of typin...
@Popular Demand if I understand @Jeff correctly, he's saying that entire civilizations have been destroyed over reasons more trivial than losing what text can be typed in 45 seconds. So the feature of warning you that you might lose your text is necessary, as it might very well prevent the collapse of modern civilization.
Do others agree?
And @Pop I want to upvote but am forcing myself to only vote on meta questions
@TheUnhandledException Yes. Even more so since @PopularDemand is a Lord, and if you were to lose the 45 seconds of typing where he said "Don't destroy that civiliazation"...Well, you know.
You haven't heard? Jeff finally decided he's been wrong this whole time and all the question are being migrated to ExpertSexChange! Being a paysite was actually the right way to go from the start; all this users governing themselves crap is sooo 1million questions ago.
Oh, and Jon Skeet is actua...
Hmmm... I thought the system has a spam filter to stop double posts
If it's never going to connect to a server you might as well just make it a desktop app though. I guess it's trivially cross-platform, but that's about it
