I'm curious @Josh, have you seen what @Ivo did with kittenBot? The most interesting part is not the bot itself but how he managed to interface with chat using node.js
When I click close in mysql---which type i should use? this is what I get in console:

@marcog Flag some of the comments. 10k users should be able to see them and flag those too. Alternatively, just flag for mods. Oh, and downvote. Definitely downvote.

actually I need to look into a good C implementation of a dict with strings for hashes, although I don't have a damn clue of where I'd go looking for that.
When visiting meta via my Linux (CentOS 5.5) box (at work) using Firefox (currently 3.6.13) I see an empty box which obscures the questions.
This is for the default page when I view the active and featured tabs. For other tabs, I don't see the obscuring empty box; nor do I see it when I vie...
I'm having this same problem, but when I remove the status-completed tag to edit a post, it says that the "status-completed moderator tag must be present"
Is this intended behavior? The net result is that you can't edit a post that's been marked with a moderator tag
There was a Meta question a while back, and the reason is because some Linux distro internally maps common Windows fonts to F/OSS versions. I suspect this is happening here. It's a dupe, but SO's sucky search function is preventing me from finding it
Since the Stack Exchange sites run on one clock, and a clock that is not common to most of us (such as those of us in the US), can we display a clock with the site time (UTC) displayed somewhere on every page, such as at the bottom with the other text? That way we are more aware of when the days...
It's the new year already in some places, and that means new year's resolutions. So, I began thinking... what major changes will 2011 bring to the StackExchange network?
Here are some of my hopes. Some are reasonable, others are... interesting:
v2 of the API - This one's already scheduled. I h...
Actually, I'd rather want something that hasn't been resolved yet, and that means bug/feature-req. For discussion questions most good answers are already there, and there's no point in awarding the bounty to @waffles there, even if he deserves it
(This may be a limited, moderator-only option, but... who knows what kind of uses we can find for it.)
When conducting a poll or an election, earlier answers get much more exposure (and many more votes).
For issues where you want to weigh true community opinion...

OK, so I deleted the spam post. What's next? Should I destroy the user? Put it in suspension? Ignore it? And what should I do if the spammer opens a new account from the same IP and spams again? Is there anything that can be done if the spammer opens a new account from a different IP?

On the review page, there is a one-sentence guideline on reviewing. I think that as the number of reviewers increase, it is going to become increasingly necessary to come to some kind of agreement about a standard way to handle the different 'cases' that arise.
I'm not sure if 'one question to r...
Well, that works too. I have no idea, someone linked it to me and it's been sitting on my list of things to consider at some point in time where I have free time.
Interesting, thanks. I just joined Board Games SE and answered a question that could have just as easily been an English SE question. Was wondering if I was out of line. Looks like I was, a little bit.
There is no such term, because there is no such thing as a stalemate in checkers. It is always possible for at least one player to win, although in some cases that would require extraordinarily poor play by the other player.
EDIT to reply to comment:
I know this is really getting into semantics,...
> Watch out when repeatedly using the ++ operator on long strings. When you put together two lists (even if you append a singleton list to a list, for instance: [1,2,3] ++ [4]), internally, Haskell has to walk through the whole list on the left side of ++.
I was just trying to figure out why on earth you were in Gaming's chat. Turns out that it was for a non-game-related reason, but let's ignore that for a moment and shift the blame away from me. ;)
What a bozo. Asks questions, deletes and re-asks them if he doesn't get answers, deletes them if he gets his problem solved. I vote for undeleting this one:
This bozo asks questions, deletes and re-asks them if he doesn't get an answer, and deletes them as soon as he gets one.
Examples for solved questions he deleted (I called upon Chat.Meta to undelete so they may be active again):
Replace element value in XML php
Xml add element node using PHP
...
@Shog9 yeah. But I voted to undelete on those questions that got a satisfying answer (and thus should be accepted) - that should be okay, shouldn't it?
@Shog9 Shog heh, the powers of Meta have now undeleted almost every question I linked to (which was not really my intention). Well, off to vote as duplicate :)
