@NormalHuman I am not surprised, I would assume home improvement would be pretty popular too. Internet is a great place for the DIY people :p

I was stating a what I think to be a fact, a lot of people come to the internet to search for information when carrying out DIY projects

user202362

user202362

maybe tomorrow I will search for info on how to replace a car battery

(maybe if I give enough hints on how she's bored with the site maybe she'll go away)

Maybe it will not work on a dumb person who ignore all hints :'(

@AndrewLeach We do test, we have a full dev environment. Occasionally we miss things. I know this looks like it should have been an easy catch, but when you think about it, almost anything seems like an easy catch once someone spots it :) We don't just ship and expect people to figure out what broke. — Tim Post ♦ 6 hours ago

Although it's routinely been explained that meta is the test environment for the Joel test...

Sterling Archer

stackoverflow.com/a/34165440/774078 Is this a valid answer? If not, be gentle, he's trying to learn.

Getting storm water system inspected today. It has just rained yesterday/today, so it's time to test whether the charged line hydraulic system works. If it doesn't (partly because the peculiarity in the setup), might have to resort to physics & maths to work out why :p

It's so strange when you're just about to check if something finally finished... and then you get an email that it was.

Got an upvote on an SO answer posted 2014-12-07, my first day of answering on SO. Almost exactly a year ago. 10 rep instead of birthday cake, fine...

user259867

Which suggests that our Fall 2014 semester ended earlier than this one... :/

Jon Ericson

@NormalHuman Cake is temporary. Upvotes are less so.

user259867

Also less fattening.

user259867

Should someone remove Susan from the post about Health pro tem mods? I think this was usually done with other mod changes.

Jon Ericson

@NormalHuman Sometimes. Often we just fix the post when we add someone new.

user259867

Apparently, there is no option to change the width.
