Tavern on the Meta

@Braiam Heh, well that has nothing to do with the contents of the tag wiki, and everything to do with the fact that most people inexplicably suck at taking in information, conceptualizing their own problems, and asking questions.

user259867

Wait, so atom is no longer an XML-based RSS competing thing?

@Woodface stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/atom-editor

This DaAwesomeP guy's been making some nice tag wiki improvements.

Guess he's on a mission.

Someone.. please cast the last reject vote on this

@JasonC well, you can't blame them if you don't even give the tools to self help themselves

@Braiam I can totally blame them. They have the same tools I have.

@LynnCrumbling trow me 20 rep and you are good to go

12:34 AM

@bjb568 Do you see any reason why its not? — David Grinberg 24 mins ago

@Braiam I have no idea what you are talking about

@JasonC no actually, the tools I'm refering to are those that define SO/SE topics, a third party shouldn't be used to define a topic you talk about in your site

O:)

sees as @Lynn gets it

(congrats on the new privs, btw.. I'm sure you'll do well with them.)

REJECTED

bows to @Braiam

12:36 AM

@Braiam I think our conversation just split into multiple realities. We seem to be talking about different things now.

I'd love to know who these idiots are that are accepting question content changes.

user259867

@Braiam Congrats! Now about those 150 posts in LQRQ...

@LynnCrumbling In the past when I've seen edit suggestions get accept votes that very obviously shouldn't have, I've flagged the post with a note. I have no idea if or how that's useful but they usually get marked as "helpful". Fwiw.

@JasonC Really? That's interesting. Do you know if any follow-up action is ever taken?

totally spam stackoverflow.com/a/13930761/792066, just wonder who the heck flagged as naa/vlq

12:41 AM

@LynnCrumbling I have no idea. I don't really even understand what kind of follow-up actions could be taken. The only reason I do it is because they got marked as "helpful", which is like a dog treat to me. I don't do it a lot though, just for the really bad ones.

or not...

@JasonC HAHAHA. I'm getting close to Marshal on SO, which is pretty exciting.

manual review ban... I think

Oh nice. I have no idea why helpful flags are so satisfying. I also direct a lot of anger at my declined flag count.

Morning uni!

12:45 AM

Morning!

in Java on Stack Overflow Chat, 5 mins ago, by Unihedro

Morning! I headed to school to find out it was a holiday, as said by the convenient store cashier lady. So at the school entrance I sneaked up to our loyal, hard-working janitor to ask him if it's a holiday. He responded yes, and I ran away before he realized I didn't know it was a holiday.

OMG, close call. Imagine what he would have done to you if he realized you didn't know it was a holiday.

You slept ~7h

Nice @Braiam

yay

@bjb568 :O

That's a lot

Even after @Inf woke me up

12:47 AM

:P

:D

@Unihedro I knew it!

~6.5h

Haha, I used to wake up at 6AM for grade school. Once I fell asleep after school and woke up at 6PM, but the lighting outside was about the same. I was kind of disoriented and started getting ready for school. My dad had the presence of mind to realize what was happening and started rushing me, telling me that I'd be late. He waited until after I showered and dressed to laugh at me. Most confusing evening ever.

I guess being a troll runs in the family.

XD

If I were you I'd wake up at 6 as usual.

Not hard to sleep 15h

12:49 AM

I typically rest < 5 hours. xD

Haha, I know, when I woke up I was like "holy crap, I must have been tired"

cv-plz stackoverflow.com/questions/24279831/…

[discussion] Should this room be split into chatting and productive modding/discussion?

Me too, I like sleeping in two 4 hour shifts.

@bjb568 /meh-vote

12:51 AM

@bjb568 Aren't those two the same?

@bjb568 The latter half would be empty.

Oh

@hichris123 no

Anyways at best that would guarantee that both split rooms were 90% full of "please have this conversation in the other room".

Well, there was a similar consensus on splitting rants and the care department from this room to another, and now the room is dead

@JasonC Yes.

12:55 AM

and went around downvoting a bunch of crappy answers and lost my 2k's :(

2

Pfft now go edit more posts

@Unihedro IIRC that was a room to house "I dislike this user because _________" complaints... which really shouldn't exist.

@hichris123 Isn't that for In Praise Of Moderators.

Eh, whatever. /confused

@bjb568 Nobody will stop you from creating a new room.

@Unihedro That's satire.

12:57 AM

@hichris123 Oh.

ahaha nevermind.

@JasonC @JasonC @Jason Doesn't matter if it doesn't get used.

Well if it's truly a good idea, then it will get used. Since it was your idea, it's up to you to promote it.

@JasonC @JasonC It probably won't stay alive long though, and that is kinda the factor against creating new rooms

@JasonC meh @JasonC

Promoting is hard @JasonC @Jason

12:58 AM

I just saw why that room was created. xD

It's not like you can bounty a room

Then discussion over, it's not a good idea.

:P

:p

@bjb568 @bjb568 @Unihedro Look, I know, I suck at the reply button. @Unihedro

@Unihedro ^

I just got tri-pinged.

tri-pings FTW!

@JasonC @JasonC @Unihedro I think we noticed @uni @JasonC

@Unihedro -> ^ @JasonC @uni

Whatever, @bj

ping overflow~

Social Conventions has been sitting around for a long time now. xD

I know.

I still half-heartedly support it with a link in my profile.

... For 7 months xD

It's probably going to get frozen before it gets the followers.

Apparently @bjb couldn't handle the pinging.

ElasticSearch... is now Elastic? elastic.co/blog/elastic-you-know-for-more-than-search

user259867

Well, if SE tried using it for targeting job ads... it suggests there's more than search.

Hmm...

@bjb568 @bjb Double-ping.

1:06 AM

It's only one ping per person per message.

It just beeps once.

That's good, actually.

@Woodface I guess but from my experience with it, it's all about querying or searching data.

This is how I feel every time I get pinged:

@Unihedro I agree

Q: How can I deal with no-socks situation at night?

-4

Our house is reasonably cold (and try to keep it that way) and so I insist that aside from summer, the kids wear socks; including for sleep. The problem is that they take the socks off - it seems like, in their sleep. BOTH of them. No matter what kinds of socks we get them - loose or tight. Shor...

sleep clothes

What a difficult situation.

1:24 AM

So close to 5k. I guess I should go answer a question.

@bjb568 Ugh. 30 years from now if somebody ever wonders why people suck, just point them to the Parenting.se question archives from the present.

user259867

Don't. There is nothing good at 5K.

user259867

"Approve tag wiki edits" yawn

user259867

If anyone ever read those... Android Enthusiasts has painfully detailed tag wikis with "first aid" information for OMG CAN'T UNLOCK PHONE situations. But are they read..?

1:39 AM

@Woodface It would be my first new privilege in... a year? Yeah. I was able to close vote starting around the end of February, last year.

1:54 AM

> I thought about making an e-book on the subject called “The Art of Ingress”. I’m glad I didn’t, because it turns out, someone already thought of it. A long time ago.

2:12 AM

Spent 50 closevotes (and 40 downvotes) in 2 hours 12 minutes, new personal best.

On one site?

user259867

Oh, and 27 delvotes too. :) Yes, on math.

2:48 AM

Ya know what? Today I'm going to sleep at 23. Just coz I can.
