It's not a feature request, just announcement.

10:55 AM

> Which is part of why NARQ closures tend to elicit arguments citing the prominent inclusion of question marks, rather than legitimate attempts to correct problems.

I think this is a deciding point where SO went the wrong way and put itself on the path to doom.

Instead of trying to focus on improving questions, they should have left the close system as it was and tried to get rid of extraneous comments.

@Pandya that said...

in The Bridge on The Stack Exchange Network Chat, 6 mins ago, by Derpy

@Derpy you... talk about WAG?

@Derpy SharePoint?

@ShadowWizard yep. I still check from time to time if anyone got that spell I left for you.

@ShadowWizard What gave you the idea :P? Maybe the fact that it doesn't make sense at all to have all that multiple cases defined at XML Schema level???

@Derpy but it's ages since anyone got any spell, or played WAG for that matter...

@ShadowWizard yep, looking at it it was dated February.

oh, well... ignore that then. My bad

@Derpy lol, no, just wondered why after all this time to mention this. :)

@Derpy this, and the title "Simple Types" followed by list of types that are anything but simple. Typical to Microsoft.

12:05 PM

@ShadowWizard because I miss-read the date, that's way. Anyway, it's funny. The same pony is the cause of both of the "unexpected" spell awards. Thanks to that one, it is pretty easy to trigger both the unicorn and the alicorn one without realizing it.

Well, I doubt that the missing one will ever be found.

Which is a pity in a way. And boring.

@Derpy true. WAG lost its glory... though there can always be new players... who knows. :)

Question regarding convention for meta sites: If downvote indicates disagreement, how can one indicate that one thinks it's a good topic but that one disagrees with the specific proposal?

If there's strong consensus the Q will end up distinguished in rankings by vote. If average view is zero but there is great interest it will not appear to be interesting by any visible summary measure. Unless people are encouraged to use "Favorite" on meta Q's to indicate they think they are good topics....

@feetwet totally up to the voter. Personally I will downvote, to indicate the disagreement, then add a comment or answer explaining why I do find it a good topic and ways to improve it, if possible.

@ShadowWizard basically I want to ask like:

"Is it ok to" or "Can a community" provide such stuff on Help-Center?

@Pandya well, since there is one, the answer is obviously "yes" - question then is "how", and that's what @Oded explained in his answer.

12:19 PM

ok.

(Generally speaking,I don't really like Yes/No questions on MSE - trying to take the next step when I see those. :))

Thanks for improving my question. @ShadowWizard

My pleasure, @Pandya

Huh, good point. Well, guess OP here can ask in the per site meta of Hinduism or in its chat room. — Shadow Wizard 17 secs ago

@Pandya ^

@ShadowWizard Now, I think I should remove the line "Can a community (say Hinduism) decide and write such stuff (if worthy to provide according to the type of site) on help-center?" from question.

@Pandya no, better leave it for sake of completeness. Oded did say "This means that the community can indeed decide to write such stuff..." which is a direct answer to this.

Instead of just "Is this possible?" question it's now "Is this possible, and if so how?" question.

12:24 PM

good-point

Yeah, the feature exists, so it should be used. I expect most moderators are not even aware of it (all they see is a tiny "edit" link just under the search box...)

Well, it's just one of those things passing "from ear to ear", as the idiom I know says.... :)

@Oded then I think this post will aware them

@Pandya not really, they probably don't roam MSE.

Like I said you have to post in the per site meta or chat.

Some of them, certainly. I might just post that question in TL, to raise awareness.

12:26 PM

Pin it!

hmm... @Oded now I'm curious, since everyone in TL got diamonds, can anyone pin any message? :)

Yep, as far as I know.

Nice!

they can also all unpin the messages, so :p

I've visited the help-center of one the sites, and noticed a "useful resources" section: I'm surprised to see it, since I don't see it in the help center of other sites. So, how can we have such section in other site? Can a community (say Hinduism) decide and write such stuff (if worthy t...

discussion support help-center

@Bart no such option in the UI but yes, I'm almost sure I was able to kick myself using direct AJAX in the past. ;)

Please tell me someone said "go kick yourself" before :D

@Pandya even better would be starting a new question on the per-site meta titled "Please add useful resources to the help center", with what you have in mind, then share that one in the site chat.

@Bart I'm afraid you're the first.... ;)

@MadaraUchiha There seems to be a gap in the notions of expertise, participation, and judgement here.

Exclusive clubs tend to serve exclusive brands of food and drinks, in the same exorbitant price range, such as the 'finest' French châteaux.
exclusionary
whole, undivided, entire

poor or rich a metaphor for the amount of knowledge they already have

I don't think it's about weak/strong, but more about effort/laziness. Someone who is weak but willing to learn is appreciated, though they probably would have found their answers before asking. Lazy people on the other hand...

It might be true in some case. But generally a newbie programmer doesn't really know what they are looking for.

@MarcGravell So the new tag engine is already in production? i.e. it should be "faster" (probably not noticeable though)?

it turns out that when you turn it on for meta.stackexchange.com, then stackexchange.com starts using that too (by proxy), hence the fail

4:26 PM

Huh. The problems of having so many different sites. :P

basically, we have two separate services that expose the exact same API/protocol but on different ports; one port is v1, the next port down is v2

we were going to go "next port up", but it turns out the next port up is reserved and blocked by most browsers as it conflicts with a common protocol

but fun fact: the GTX 1080 rocks

(actually there really is; we want to use the 1080 on the servers)

Because a 7 day TTL means you can't switch CDN providers easily. I guess it helps with performance, but it discourages switching.
