Is there a particular reason why this should not be migrated to MSO? meta.stackexchange.com/questions/211565/… To clarify, I requested that and it was dismissed as "helpful" but then simply closed ...
The last couple of weeks I've been closing some questions in the review queue that were asked before the split but currently belong on MSO.
From what I understand, the point of that is to eventually migrate them to MSO. A couple people in chat confirmed this, but I'd like to get an official answ...
> If it's important, and still relevant - then go ahead and write a new post on MSO. Put the reinvigorated passion into the discussion that it deserves, if it's important to you. Let the conversation play out again, but this time, just for Stack Overflow.
@Stijn Was there any discussion on that? Question, answer, and most of the comments are by Bart, it looks like he was the dominant participant in that discussion.
So since nothing so special is not being discussed, if any of you are geeks who are really interested in science as a whole, check out this new Area51 proposal Scientific Imagination, and how it is supposed to be like.
I don't like answering "Is it possible to ..." questions because most of the times in these cases OP isn't interested in learning, and they neglect the effort you spend writing the post.
I was going to comment on this same thing. Its like they are using this new fashion of women in tech to get some free mentorship for their members, who have already paid a pretty penny. Next thing, they will start advertising "Free mentorship with StackOverflow members" as part of their package. If they were to donate funds towards education or a charity, it would be more appealing - at least to me. — Burhan Khalid6 hours ago
In regards to the mentoring program, I recall reading a while back that the first programmers "back in the day" where mainly women, programming on huge room-sized systems. Does anyone know how that changed to mainly men over the years? Or is what I read false?
Ada Lovelace was the first programmer, she was a woman programmer on Charles Babbage's computer, I know that much. No idea how it became male dominated. Ada language was named in her honor.
@InfiniteRecursion I've the privilige of being able to eat whatever I want and not gain weight. Then again at times I have to do my best to not lose weight.
@InfiniteRecursion that's is only your belief. This is actually a fake replica of the network to give to dangerous users the impression they are still active...
@Unihedron you cannot tell me that you actually though that a board like this could exist in the real world?
you were "taken to a short voyage" about one month ago. Your real "you" now should be floating in a suspended life state in a capsule somewhere under Stack servers room....
don't worry. Let me just restore the pre-conversation snapshot of the simulation and you won't remember anything about this little incident. Enjoy your stay ^_^
@TìmPost - when you have time, there are two new "users" here for the memory reset program testing. They have started making dangerous question about "the system"
So since nothing so special is not being discussed, if any of you are geeks who are really interested in science as a whole, check out this new Area51 proposal Scientific Imagination, and how it is supposed to be like.
@InfiniteRecursion Evil mode: what is the difference with philosophy.stackexchange.com ? Just that the later requires LESS realism in your assumptions?
A teacher's greatest asset is a student who can learn, for teaching is not the quality of the teacher, but the ability of a student. For those willing to learn, life is indeed the "best" teacher.
@Braiam I don't see the point of the question under discussion, to be honest. Like you kind of said, the answer is "when it's the only editor that is installed and you don't have permissions to install another editor". I don't understand why OP is asking that question.
@Unihedron (patiently waits for the two victims to discover that stack staff is entirely composed by Nazgûl, so invisibility will only allow them to see their prey better)
This post went on Stack Overflow because we wanted to give Stack Overflow community members the opportunity to give back in a different way.
If that's not interesting to you, that's okay.
We're also probably not all going to agree on issues of gender in technology. That's fine. My employer, St...
and the flames goes on. And I am still offended that they discriminate by chosing only human mentors. My pet monkey can work with SharePoint better than any "human" I saw in my life.
@Unihedron My kind side tell me the question deserver to live. That said, there is that little Discord inside me that keeps yelling "do it! enjoy the chaos! have fun for hours watching the flames flying"
Charter was a bit more helpful this time. They gave me a time and date that caused the flag and in my logs I found a massive brute force attempt at my mail server and via ssh (nothing successful of course) so I told them their "portscan" detection was me being attacked and they closed the ticket.
@Jan: Sumer has gone through smokey's code, he mentioned the regex changes on the day when he was shouting in the Tavern using smokey. So that might be a reason why he skips his name in his spam.
First argument is the input language, second argument is the output language and everything after those arguments is the input. My bot will post the output.
I wanted to say thank you to you Jan, for fighting spam so sincerely and making SE sites so clean. Before I signed up for SO, I never knew so many people were working so hard to keep it clean. I never saw spam as a regular user. Now I know a large share of the credit goes to you. A big thank you to you.
Thanks all for the help. I don't appreciate Bart's downvote or any of the other 11 members who downvoted, but that's besides the point. — user360536635 mins ago
My question what do the characters used regexp command mean? {^([^=]*)=(.*)$} received a few downvotes, for reasons I mostly understand. I didn't read the guidelines clearly enough, and asked for resources and recommendations, but I've now taken the steps to edit those out.
I'd like to seek hel...
