Do private beta sites not show up in the live feed (i.e. can Smokey see them)?

A: Should controls be removed or just greyed out in a tool for power-users where they repeat many times?

Drew BeckI agree that in general hiding the link is preferred. But in this case I'd make an argument for keeping the links but greying them out. You have a bunch of possible links on any post and a bunch of different states with different options available. If you hide the links, as you have in your scre...

I personally find "pro-sumer" extremely offensive.

haha, that'd do it
@Woodface Indeed. I make a living adding things together, and I never call myself a pro-sumer

A: Can I upload my application utilizing WatchKit to the App Store now?

AstroCBNo. Apps using WatchKit target iOS 8.2, which has not yet been released.

Because of this, you will not be able to upload any builds containing Wat...

I find it interesting how this all went down. Even though most of the resetting is over, there's still a lot of annoyance, and grieving.
Cold War-esque perhaps?
eh, not so much.
Something that inactive sites can't enjoy much.

People may be misunderstood. But leaderboards are definitely evil.

@AndrewT. We also went from individual to group competition since last year was unicoins.
And then there's 1 person who raised his site's egg alone until 99.9%, and got restarted due to just a small raid of restarts.

user259867
Woodworking has a nice ad, unusually for early betas.
user259867
I underestimated them.
user259867
Except... they may regret it if users begin asking questions in that form.
@Woodface because japanese speakers doesn't understand the arabic alphabet and they have phonetically equivalents to most english sounds
Stack Overflow sounds like "Sutakku ōbāfurō"
I know is weird, but that's the way it is
Actually, there's a meta post about that, and community seems to like "Stack Overflow [in Japanese]" than "Stack Overflow" in Katakana
03:23
is "there's a meta post about that" a meme?
Then there's a follow-up to discuss whether using "[in Japanese]" is a good idea or not.
@Roombatron5000 maybe there's a meta post that makes it one

I dunno...
@Woodface still confused , on other translation meta threads, they choose not to import and translate english SO to whatever SO new language site.. but now they import a clone site to an SO site? doesn't seem consistent
user259867
03:47
Life is inconsistent. They were looking for a Russian-speaking CM. Found one who already had a site (in fact, a network of 3 sites modeled after SE). Considered pros and cons of migration. Decided to go for it.
user259867
"Translate English SO" is quite different from "migrate an existing community to SE platform"
i see, do you know how many users that other site had?
user259867
@Roombatron5000 hashcode.ru/users
user259867
Fun fact: at Hashcode, reputation could be negative. This is the negative record holder.
I've sometimes wished SE did that, tbh.
I have to say, Hashcode.ru is a pretty solid SE clone.

Otsu is a Japanese town. I've been there. It had lovely cherry trees.

Wow. That didn't take long. My case in wonderful, screencaptured point: stackoverflow.com/questions/29386213/…
