Hallo

!comp 2/0

too late @rene ;)

8:02 PM

yeah...

It's fun to see users come, ask, answer and leave

Once in a while I try to be nice and this is the result....

Admit it, all of us are evil. You can't be nice.

bummi

huch ...

@InfiniteHappiness we all are sockpuppets of @bart

bummi

8:06 PM

I beg to differ

Bart is the most evil

@bummi granted...

bummi

don't blaspheme about absent

;)

I admit he has some catching up to do when he returns ... that might involve the use of his smiting stick

yes, he needs to use the stick on botling

8:12 PM

I think we should add the botling to wheel of blame. It has earned that much now

:P

MEW @bjb568

MEW :)

!vote usage

vote command usage:
for [canidate] [pollname] (vote for a candidate, replacing any previously cast ones)
create [pollname] (create a poll)
result [pollname] (print the results of a poll)

^ I will let these be here for @DroidDev :D

You can now use democracy bot for democracying!

8:16 PM

When did it graduate to a bot? It's a botling.

@InfiniteHappiness lol, I don't even understand what that is written :P

@InfiniteHappiness When it became useful.

@DroidDev It's a democracy bot, it lets you vote on things.

@bjb568 what kinda thingz?

Anything!

!vote create apple-google

Poll apple-google created

!vote for apple apple-google

Vote: [["237813","bjb568"],"apple"]

oh! That could also be used for taking revenge ;)

!vote for apple apple-google

8:18 PM

No poll found matching apple-google

The page just glitched and it said SE dropped my connection.

No graduation for borkey. It's still a botling.

@UndotheSnowman You doubt me?

8:24 PM

no, I mean, there has never been any kind of voting in tavern since I cam here and I have never seen it in history either. So, how does the voting system makes it useful?

!vote for apple apple-google

Vote: [["215468","Undo the Snowman"],"apple"]

Vote: [["237685","hichris123"],"google"]

It told Behaviour his math is wrong. It filled my inbox with "plz kick me @Inf" and "Why aren't you kicking me @Inf", botling beats all trolls.

@UndotheSnowman You doubt his programming skills? :P

@InfiniteHappiness Just a little suspicious how long it takes :P

I'm not a valued API customer :(

@UndotheSnowman umm....6-8 weeks...maybe....

woah! 80% off on skull candy earphones and damn thing is out of stock! shouts swear words

8:33 PM

Knowing which swear words you said can help us diagnose your server problem

@bjb568 Dare you to go propose that as an off-topic reason on meta SF

Oooh idea

8:36 PM

It overrides existing votes.

I have seen bjb write weird meta posts, don't be surprised if he does go to SF meta. He once posted on MSO, asking for a diamond when I was granted access to a mod room and he wasn't :D

@bjb568 hmm....great! even greater should be not accepting new one

Unless you get your account merged and your account id changes, no double-voting.

!vote for apple apple-google

>:D

@DroidDev Meh, too complicated.

@bjb568 what were you saying about no double voting?

:)

@bjb568 but, that's how voting should work

@UndotheSnowman I didn't say bots can't vote

ah good

8:37 PM

@SmokeDetector false

@hichris123 Could not register title as false positive.

lol

gtg cya

Bye Undo!

I think @UndotheSnowman doubts your programming skills @bjb568

I wonder why…

8:38 PM

Bye Undo!

...maybe the botling failed to impress @UndotheSnowman

Impossible!

Yes, absolutely impossible!

on a totally unrelated/sarcastic note:

The amount of humanity and sympathy is directly related to the amount of Media Coverage.

Positively or negatively correlated?

@ElfSlice After listening more, 9/12 stars

Her — Which is a better Encryption algorithm, PHP or Base64?
Me — I'm going to need to review every piece of code you've written..ever.

8:53 PM

Better suspend her from writing code as well, ever

PHP .... tsssskkk

@rene only if you had ever met her :P

@DroidDev looks aren't evertyhting, you know....

Pretty close tho.

btw, the feeling is quite like:

I'm going to die tonight because I didn't like a post that said "Like within 3 seconds and comment 'amen'or you will die within 12 hours :'(

@hichris123 OP realized and commented

@hichris123 nevermind.

9:43 PM

Whoa! I found this person on Stack Overflow who has less than 1k rep and a gold badge that isn't "Famous Question"!

Who?

Frank?

101 rep.

@hichris123 That's a... strange question. It's like "If I take all the cookies from the jar, I get a lot of cookies! Yay! But if I only take the top cookie, I only get one cookie. Why is that?? :("

@bjb stackoverflow.com/users/667580/flcl

There's probably a bunch.

Yeah, but that's the first time I clicked on a random <1k's profile and found a non-"Famous Question" gold badge.

9:52 PM

Ah, fanatic. Lots of low-rep users have that, especially on smaller sites. The only difficult part about doing it on SO is to hang around for three months without going over 1k.

@IlmariKaronen I know, right?

data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/query/261224/…

^^^ Gold badges counts for people less than 1k rep

~93.5% of all gold badges are Famous Question

@hichris123 What's sort of annoing is that the dupe is clearly better asked, but this one has better answers. :/

I guess I could just answer the other one myself, but I'd really rather not bother. :(

10:11 PM

Unsung hero is so easy.

Here's the one guy with the sub-1k Copy Editor:

Enmos Proje, Turkey

983 3 9 27

He also has Electorate and Fanatic. :o

And in case you're wondering, here's the edit that got him the badge.

Must love editing.

Q: Full text search results in a large amount of time spent in 'FULLTEXT initialization'

I'm currently trying to run some queries against a data dump of Stack Overflow's comments. Here's what the schema looks like: CREATE TABLE `socomments` ( `Id` int(11) NOT NULL, `PostId` int(11) NOT NULL, `Score` int(11) DEFAULT NULL, `Text` varchar(600) NOT NULL, `CreationDate` timesta...

mysql full-text-search

sigh SQL

Use mongodb.

@bjb568 You honestly think it would handle 20 million rows easily?

Yeah.

@bjb568 Oh, right, it's NoSQL.

Remember? NoSQL != SQL

10:43 PM

So it must be kewl.

It's for non-relational data.

Eh, you can probably restructure everything.

@bjb568 Perhaps, but it isn't meant for relational data.

So there's no point in using it.

Yes, but you can make your data not relational.

... what?

10:45 PM

Eh… complicated.

@bjb568 I think you fundamentally misunderstand relational vs. non-relational data.

Instead of having tables which you join, you have objects in collections which you nest.

instead of select sum(votes) where votes.on in user's program ids, you have something like sum(user's program's votes)

Frank

The problem with Yahoo answers is that if you actually put detail into a question, it's too long, and no one reads it. But if you don't, everyone answers it, and no one knows what your situation is.

…

And also that it's crap?

Frank

sorry that was random

@bjb568 That too.
