Ben Collins took another crack at this recently, and the results are pretty good... But not perfect. The algorithm still needs help. -- from triage announcement
user259867
And then Ben moved on... where does this leave all the Vowpal Wabbit - powered Data Science?

@Woodface Even as of November, they weren't doing a ton.

@hichris123 I am not active on the iOS project anymore. I'm technically still working on the quality project, but there's not a whole lot of ML work going on there at the moment, so I'm working on other things
user259867
Was it ever explained what feeds Triage now?
21:09
Surprises you find when reading through the SQLite code. Somebody must've received a lot of calls. http://t.co/1yTAvYLHMx
@Woodface I thought it was just the quality algorithms...

For context: the suspension handed out with that comment was for one day. The user worked his way to a one-year suspension just yesterday.
Dammit. I have commented on his rant and now he's asking me unrelated questions. meta.stackexchange.com/questions/251282/…
user259867
@SmokeDetector fp, may be problematic because of off-line resource, but...
@Woodface Registered question as false positive and added title to Bayesian doctype 'good'.
21:21
I give up.
I have an 89k user telling me that their question shouldn't be closed, just because other off-site resource request questions were not closed either.
Time to close those?

Q: Is there any API/database of phone models based on carriers?

mederIs there any API or database which can provide specific model phones based on carrier? For example, if I wanted to look up Samsung Galaxy S4 I can get different models from Verizon to AT&T to no-carrier ( original ). Doesn't have to be every phone under the sun, just the most popular ones from...

give them a link to and thank them for pointing you to the other questions (and close them, too)
@JanDvorak already voted on all 3
CV'd x3
21:28
@JanDvorak That user replied. I feel bad for them.. but the answer to the question is "those other posts fell through the cracks; they should have been closed."
I don't get the upvote, though
There's an upvote?
one more cv needed
oh - then a -1.
hadn't noticed that.
uh... my -1 came out first, I believe...
21:30
Wonder if we can talk that user into cv'ing the two questions they posted as examples :)
@meder please vote to close this question as welll as the ones you linked — Jan Dvorak 12 secs ago
@LynnCrumbling BTTT
If we succeed, I feel like there should be a badge for that :)
The word "Reversal" is already used... hrmm.
BTTTSP (been there, tried that, success pending)
Hey .. look at that.
They cv'd the other two..
but theirs is still up.
21:32
\o/
self-closed
nice!

should I tell him to self-delete as well? :-)

HAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHA -> star

They have been tavern'd
@LynnCrumbling HapPi day :P
cv-pls x5
Is there a distinction between "What API should I use" (which could mean what function should I use) vs. the obvious "where can I find an api..." that is a no-brainer?
18 hours ago, by Doorknob
Happy premature 3/14/15 9:26 UTC time!
21:40
Some of those questions feel like the OP is asking about a framework that they are unfamiliar with, and hence just need to know what function within the framework does what they need.
The last link... is a clear case of off-site rec.
edit if you think a question is salvageable
@JanDvorak think it's worthwhile to get meder in here?
yes!!!
@meder Come join us in Tavern on the Meta ... we can have a mini closing event. — Lynn Crumbling 22 secs ago
hey! welcome
hi
21:46
hi
Trying to figure out what to do about some of those links you posted.
so yeah - let me close the ones i linked to
or see if they're close-able
Some of the clearly cross the line.
Other ones Might be salvagable.
21:47
@HoboSapiens are you sure?
I think that's spam.. with just a link to wooup
Closed by mod.
@LynnCrumbling we do?
Anyway - back to meder's list.
@LynnCrumbling gone
The last one's been closed.
21:48
cv'd all of them already
@meder Reading over the others, some ask about whether there's a class within the framework.
Others say class in the framework, or some other API.
@JanDvorak Yes - the link just goes to some rambling web page. It's academic now - it's been deleted by a moderator

Q: Will filtering be allowed for triage?

nicaelJust noticed that the new "Triage" review queue lacks filtering. Will it be allowed?

@LynnCrumbling voted on those
@rene you cv'd all?
21:50
same mod that closed the spam question just a minute before
@LynnCrumbling went over them yes?
I'm looking reviewing the first 4. The last is the only one I'm certain of.
And 2 is already closed.

you already got those ^^ @Lynn
but they're still open
21:55
@meder nobody here blindly closes questions -- when a cv request is posted, and the question could be salvaged or is arguably not closable, it does end up resulting in a discussion.. not just a follow-the-leader mentality...
and another one's gone, another one's gone, another one bites the dust
@meder but don't hesitate to pop in here and add a cv req... you might find yourself sticking around more than you like :)
@HoboSapiens closed
@JanDvorak Ty
21:56
@meder It's a good feeling, to actually be able to effect change.
Can I get some flags on the comments on this question? stackoverflow.com/q/29053854/1864610, Not constructive, certainly, possibly rude.
cv-pls^
comment tl;dr
@meder I just voted to close the last of the 5. It clearly attracted a spammy answer.
I have 9 other rec-tool q's. Want my to post them in here?
Sure. Did I get those already too?
21:59
nice
@LynnCrumbling I don't think so.
I'm out of CV's until 0:00 UTC
@LynnCrumbling There is a same answer now deleted except that one didn't reveal the OP was the owner of that service. That deleted post is deleted by Flexo
@Frank Hey - I just answered a dup to this yesterday! well .. the question I answered is the dup!
@LynnCrumbling that doesn't look like a rec-tool
I'm out for now... need sleep...
22:04
@Frank No.. and I'm not sure if the other one is either....
\o
@rene 'night
[ SmokeDetector ] All-caps title: WHAT IS UTOKEN? by Travis Austin on bitcoin.stackexchange.com
Which library or macro that deletes only installed files when the uninstallation is run would you recommend?
^^ looks like rec-tool
the "macro" part of that is ok...
the word library is, of course, the scary part.
(macros are used in NSIS and many come with it.. that could easily mean "which macro that ships with NSIS can I use")
But I'm having a hard time with the word library.
22:10
@LynnCrumbling edit?
Found ten more. Anyone want them?
@Frank grace edit that forgot to delete?
@JanDvorak uh
@Frank you sure? feels maybe NAA'ish to me...
I can't see an edit history.. is there more to it?
there is no post history.
that's how it started out. Someone bein' dumb
Grace period edit?
22:16
@JanDvorak idt so.
@JanDvorak Are mods capable of seeing that?
@LynnCrumbling no
would be one dumb edit even if it was, repeating the same sentence 5 times
anyone would know better than that.
dumb != abusive
22:17
It would imply that they found the edit link.. but not the delete link right beside it.
Anyone want 10 more rec-tools?
@LynnCrumbling seen that
Fire away. I've got votes left.
Only a few of your last batch actually got closed. Most stalled around 2-3 votes.
@Frank looks like someone tried to close that in jan '14.
@LynnCrumbling ha

A: Help us test the shiny new "User Activity" page! (Plus a bunch of new features.)

nicaelstatus-declined - the avatar is bigger now. That's great that avatar is clickable! I didn't notice it at first. Can the name be made clickable too please?

that's a pity it was declined... With quite a strange reason...
I can't see anything but the cv count. Not who voted or anything
I voted on all.
22:22
aaand I'm out of u/d votes
@JanDvorak Did you downvote most of those as well?
ha
seems like something you would do
They mostly had way too many upvotes anyway.
22:27
so now we have a dozen ot q's with 2 close votes on 'em, so they can time out and go back to ... whatever they were doing before.
hopefully people will see 'em in the queues before that.
@Frank I was just working down the list, but I'm out of CVs now.
kewl
new day UTC is just 1 1/2 hrs off anyway
user259867

stackoverflow.com/questions/3225022/… math problem (my flag isn't getting traction there.)
user259867
Yes, you better. Or else SE will show a condescending message on your profile
ha
user259867
I was motivated to get some SO rep mostly by the Triage queue. Like playing with new shiny things. Now working on getting to 2K.

Q: Moderators Pro Tempore announcement

abby hairboatThroughout the beta, we need members from the site whose focus is to engage the community, both in community-building issues and site management. That's why we select a few members from each community to act as temporary, provisional Moderators. You can read about the program here: Moderators Pro...

2 dv's ^^
user259867
22:59
Only. Wait until the first flaming meta thread calling for your head on a plate.
@Woodface It won't be for my head, it'll be one of the others.
I'm too awesome.
xD
user259867
And technically, a tree does not have a head, so perhaps you're safe.
It'll probably be my head :(
user259867
Yes, you obviously have one.
lol
@Woodface Moose have heads
user259867
23:01
I don't know what a mooseman is. Is it a man's body with moose's head, or the other way around?
@Woodface either way, it has a head
@michaelpri but - your head is already cut off.
:P
user259867
Maybe you need an [undo] tag on LH?

in SO Close Vote Reviewers on Stack Overflow Chat, 27 mins ago, by gnat
folks, I bumped a bunch of "looking for" questions into java/off-topic. Would appreciate your help in reviewing these. I know it's a big tag and crowded close reason, not really convenient, but couldn't figure better way. At least, you can recognise "my" stuff by only checking question titles :)
in Charcoal HQ on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, May 10 '14 at 2:51, by Doorknob
Lol. I wonder how long I can go before being called a Nazi
user259867
23:09
How long was it? @Doorknob
Yep, go wild here folks: stackoverflow.com/review/close/…
Everything that starts with "Looking for..."
@Woodface Non-jokingly? Still haven't been on PPCG; 5 months after being appointed on Puzzling.
Tells you a little something about the difference between the communities there...
user259867
Traffic to SE sites launched in the last 6 months:
ja.SO 4.6k
Lifehacks 1.2k
Emacs 1.1k
Vi/Vim 300
Economics 220
Engineering 200
History of S&M 121
Music Fans 58
Coffee 57
HAHAH. Poor Coffee.
23:13
Vi/Vim is unacceptably lower than Emacs. >:O
@Doorknob way
user259867
It's much newer, though: 1 month vs 6 months.
True.
@Doorknob I was just about to make a slick comment about how (once and for all), we know what the "better" editor is..... (JOE!)
user259867
My point was mostly that LH (3 months old) leads if the special project ja.SO is excluded.
23:14
@Woodface Was this a reply to me?
(Coffee = 1mo?)
@LynnCrumbling Vi/Vim is 6 times younger, but it has only ~4 times less traffic than Emacs. :D
Or was this the vi vs emacs thing?
user259867
Coffee = 2mo; vi and music fans = 1m
Ah, ok.
I'll be curious if coffee takes off.
Hope meder comes back again sometime...
oops
23:16
A lot of those questions got closed that were posted...
oh noes [status-fullpath-disclosed]
eh, wasn't up for long.
I pasted it into the Tavern chat box because I was trying to copy it back after editing it in Vim, and accidentally hit enter out of instinct :P
:)
@Frank can you add that link in the review close to the list of cv-rec's?
what... was it?
@hichris123 it was my $PATH
Nothing that really has to be kept secret, actually :P
@Doorknob Better watch out—now you could be a victim of a dependency injection attack.
23:21
@AlexisKing But isn't it obvious that, say, /usr/bin is pretty much guaranteed to be in $PATH anyway?
@Doorknob The thing I linked to isn't exactly completely serious. ;)
Heh, I know; I've seen it before :D
@LynnCrumbling what link?
@LynnCrumbling but I can't edit old messages.
23:23
Any libs or anything to generate a quality score for some text input, like "qoeirhgoeirhg" and "Clk here pls!" and "UR SDUPID" are bad and "I'll be curious if coffee takes off." and "(at)Frank can you add that link in the review close to the list of cv-rec's?" and stuff are good?
Don't care which language, I'm going to rewrite it anyway.
@Frank Nah.. but if you end up doing a mass-dump to tavern again, just append that to the end..
@LynnCrumbling sure... why?
A user just dumped a bunch of questions in there from java that all start with "Looking for"...
Each and every one that starts with that is easily identifiable as an off-site rec
@SmokeDetector tpu
@hichris123 Blacklisted user.
23:25
@SmokeDetector tpu
@Doorknob Blacklisted user.
argh
@Woodface Only took me... urr... well, four days I guess
@SmokeDetector gone
@Undo Wow. And I thought 5 months was bad...
23:25
"That was easy."
@Doorknob meh, it was just some guy that Godwin'd himself on Meta.
and it wasn't me, it was ALL TEH MODS
Ah, okay. So not nearly as bad as the, ahem, situation on Puzzling.
Yeah, it was all the mods in my case as well :P
@Doorknob ... no
BTW - flagging that user for mod attention.
user259867
23:33
okey
You have no more close votes today; come back in 25 minutes
grumble
user259867
But this does not look like something you would want to rewrite. The code base is voluminous.
user259867
Which is sort of expected in Natural Language Processing.
such complicate
I want something simple.
user259867
You know, you can use regular expressions...
23:37
wait wait wait... @bjb568 wants a library? I thought he hated libraries and wanted to pour time into reinventing the wheel!
@hichris123 I said I would rewrite it.
@bjb568 lol then that's really dumb. sorry, but...

The analysis of two-letter combinations can probably detect catwalk nonsense. I think I posted a link to their frequency somewhere. Yes, here it is

Q: What is the purpose of the "you have already raised this type of flag" message?

Alexis KingOnce I've flagged a post, the flag dialog will inform me that I've already raised a certain type of flag for certain options: However, if I try to select some other flag type, such as "not an answer" in the above dialog, it still gives me an error message: If I can't flag a single p...

@AlexisKing answers are different than questions. You can VLQ flag & flag to close a question, but IIRC you can't do that for any other types of flags.
23:40
@Woodface looks useful
user259867
Each bigram earns the score equal to the reciprocal of the frequency. Average the scores. Decide on the threshold for passing, or just report on some scale 0-100.
user259867
Will probably break on code fragments.
user259867
Hmm, I should try to use this on question summaries from websockets.
