Is there a way to view the markdown source of a comment?

API?

Jason C

Well, conveniently, in a pinch from a browser.

user259867

00:22

It can be made convenient with a userscript, but AstroCB is busy writing another one.

user259867

Seriously, API is the only source for that. SEDE has html only.

Jason C

@hichris123 Oh cool, thank you.

user259867

@Woodface I had to suspend someone within my first few days

Haven't suspended anyone since, IIRC

Jason C

Write a script to suspend a random user once a week.

user259867

There is a suspicious voting pattern: one user cast 1366 votes, while the second-highest number in that category is 482.

@Woodface Honestly, now that I know the SE sysadmins eat their own dogfood with SE chat, I'm boggled that the chat application still sucks as much as it does.

user259867

@AlexisKing dogfood? Unfamiliar with the idiom. Yes, they use this chat system for internal communications. And Google Hangout when need more bandwidth.

Alexis King

Eating your own dog food

Eating your own dog food, also called dogfooding, is a slang term used to reference a scenario in which a company uses its own product to validate the quality and capabilities of the product. == §Introduction == Dogfooding can be a way for a company to demonstrate confidence in its own products. The idea is that if the company expects customers to buy its products, it should also be willing to use those products. Hence dogfooding can act as a kind of testimonial advertising. InfoWorld commented that this needs to be transparent and honest: "watered-down examples, such as auto dealers' policy of...

@AlexisKing What, in particular, would you change about it?

Alexis King

@TimPost Honestly, I mostly just don't like the UI. Also I think it could be much better advertised so that people would ask chat instead of spamming the site with terrible questions, but that's a different problem.

Andrew T.

04:31

Add SuperCollider to chatroom!

status-declined

Participating in chat needs 20 rep, while new user starts with 1 rep. It's still a problem even though it's advertised.

Tim Post

@AlexisKing If you can narrow particular things that you don't like about the UI (more to the why than the what), we'd definitely love to hear it on meta. We want to do more with chat, it keeps coming up internally, but actually picking a direction and going that way has turned out to be a little harder than we thought.

Alexis King

@TimPost Okay; I actually considered doing that once before but figured SE chat wasn't really a priority so people wouldn't be interested. I might get around to typing something up when I have the time.

Tim Post

Our internal rooms are basically the same system, with the addition of being tied into other internal systems (like our HR system, so we know if someone is on vacation or something if we go to ping them). Chat hasn't seen any significant development in a long time, we use it too, we'd love to see it move again.

@AlexisKing I wouldn't want to direct questions to chat. Can't close as a duplicate in chat. No filtering. Doesn't scale to the volume of questions on main site. Hardly searchable.

Alexis King

@Woodface I think chat would be better served as a "is this question okay to ask on SO" sort of space. Considering people need 20 rep, anyway, they won't be completely clueless.

Jason C

When comments on a post are moved to chat, does that chat room stick around forever?

user259867

04:46

Call me skeptical, but I think the users who post terrible questions don't care if it's okay or not. They just want an answer.

Jason C

How is that skeptical? That's precisely correct and pretty obvious.

And the sad part is 9 times out of 10 they'll get their answer, even if it's just in a comment.

Either that or our favorite "Hey look I can solve a problem too!" style answers.

> A room is considered worth retaining if it has more than 15 messages by at least 2 users. Rooms not worth retaining which are inactive for 7 days will be deleted. -- chat FAQ

Jason C

Thanks.

@TimPost Well they're not very well integrated into the sites, although I have no ideas to suggest, myself. All I know is there's currently no real natural, attractive path from a user saying "I have a question" or "I have something to say about this post" to a chat room. The chat system feels tacked on and incidental. Leaving comments is the path of least resistance and at least comments aren't guaranteed to be removed.

If there were some way to make chatting as natural as commenting...

That said I kinda like how quiet it is.

Anectodal evidence: when my mum was hunting down a rat, she tried poison (left alone), rat traps (shut, eaten out but with no rat trapped) and some other tricks too, then resorted to putting poisoned food as a bait into the traps - which resulted in an empty trap and a poisoned rat somewhere in the house. Somewhere. In the house. Rotting, stinking, dead rat. It took six to eight weeks to find it. Finally it was discovered inside our stove, burnt to a crisp, stuck to the gas pipe and almost impossible to remove. — Jan Dvorak 15 secs ago

Flag-banned by inattentive reviewers and review-banned by bad audits. That's how you know when Stack Overflow is FUBAR.

Mooseman

If there were cv audits I probably wouldn't be able to cv either. :/

Jan Dvorak

Answered by a 23ker. anyone wants to comment?

@Mooseman There are

Mooseman

@JanDvorak Only via the queues though. And they don't block cv'ing, right?

J. Steen

@JanDvorak It is an answer, even if it's extremely broad and sweeping. More a symptom of the question.

Definitely not.

I don't know if having 6 yearling badges and less than 10k rep is a good thing.

@J.Steen veteran (sure there would be several marshal badges if it would be awarded more than once )

Unihedro

12:21

There should be a badge for getting 5k helpful flags within a year. xD

J. Steen

@Unihedro Yes. We saw. :p

@Unihedro Flag less, rep farm more!

Unihedro

@J.Steen ... why?

J. Steen

It's a lovely haiku, but not a question: stackoverflow.com/questions/29032152/…

@Unihedro I wasn't serious.

Sometimes you find things you can not flags because there is no evidence of spam or abuse, just a strong feeling something fish is going on there. Was there ever a thought about something like a pool for fishy flags a thing (as swarm intelligence) Invisible to the users but would be visible to moderators, without declines or usefull just a indicator for the mods and the team.

Unihedro

Which is essentially what mod flags are for.

My connection is being weird, what does DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET mean anyway?

bummi

@Unihedro I have list of users where I have to check ever and ever again if I find a real evidence, if I would flag at once it would get declined often, sometimes I get them, 50% of them are deleted on a later check ... it's just difficult to handle this way

Unihedro

How's that offensive? It's kind of LQ though.
