Here's how: Hey @Shoggy @Shoggiling @Shog! @Shogging thru he @Snow! There's an @Andy (one of them) here to meet you! P'haps with something you'd like to know!

John

That's hallarois.

Bart

It has been nice knowing you @bjb568isnotapebble

John

@bjb568isnotapebble of course bjb568 is not a pebble

hichris123

@Quill sigh yes. The Careers team does need to learn how to use BCC...

Bart

Are you sure @John? I have it on good authority that he does skip across a pond if you throw him fast enough.

bjb568 is not a pebble

3:06 PM

Me am a kitteh kat! :3

John

That Doesn't necessarily mean he's a pebble.

John

@Bart like how just cause something's white doesn't mean it's snow.

Right @bjb568isnotapebble?

Andy

@John No. It's really not.

hichris123

I'm assuming it had something to do with bjb, which is generally a safe assumption

John

3:36 PM

@bjb568isnotapebble I like how you use :3

Andy

@soup 15 minutes?! What kind of slow response time is that? I demand a response time in the "seconds" range.

I hope that sarcasm came through loudly enough.

rene

nope

hichris123

@Undo Um... shrug

rene

@Undo wrong Shog-puppet ...

hichris123

@soup "healthy level of activity" - except 1.1k visits/day. That's worse than Ask Patents, so the worst of any graduated site.

rene

3:43 PM

They might be at the low end of the level of activity but how worse is that?

hichris123

Considering a lot of beta sites have more visits/day than that...

Oh, oops. Stack Apps is below them with 495 visits/day.

rene

Still, is that bad? I recall that the hard rules were dropped sometime ago.

hichris123

And their traffic seems to have a downwards trend line (look at visits + 365 days): quantcast.com/expressionengine.stackexchange.com#/trafficCard

@rene Well, it's certainly not good...

rene

Ok ... this is getting nowhere... I'll try to root instead ...

John

@Unix if the meta is dead, you should contact stackexchange about that.

@Andy I think it is (personally)

Unix

3:57 PM

Keep the glasses, get rid of the cat, and you have a chance.

bjb568 is not a pebble

Buht the kat's the behst pawt.

John

@bjb568isnotapebble agree

@Bart GROWL

Bart

Pff, at best the cat adds only a small purrcentage

John

@Bart now is it your turn to get kicked?

hichris123

If Bart were to be kicked, he'd take out his smiting stick...

bjb568 is not a pebble

4:02 PM

@Bart Buht the stawabiwity is based on the pawduct of kittyness and glasses.

Bart

@hichris123 knows

John

@Bart For purrcentage

Oops, now my turn.

Bart

@John don't make a spectacle now ... get it ... spectacle ...

@bjb568isnotapebble I thought you needed your katnap.

user315433

Nada Elkady (no SE profile) has a new job title: Director of Marketing, Business Solutions. Which apparently means marketing SE Enterprise.

user315433

Her previous title was "Funnel Marketing Director", whatever that means.

John

@bjb568isnotapebble how can a sleeping kat be lurking?

user315433

NE election got the second candidate two hours before the end of nomination. The choice is obvious enough... and luckily there is no minimum voter turnout requirement.

user315433

(I wonder if they will get at least 50 people to vote)

David Robinson's blog post: One year as a Data Scientist at Stack Overflow

user315433

According to his map of Stack Exchange, ExpressionEngine users are mostly the same as CraftCMS users, which is a younger site with more questions and visits. Looks like they migrated between platforms.

Shog9

@soup pretty sure that doesn't require a code change anymore. I believe Stum is responsible for the fatter sidebar ad

user315433

Is this connection ... real?

Shog9

Whenever I hear web marketers talk about "funnels", I think of the Amigara Fault... http://brasscockroach.com/h4ll0w33n2007/manga/Amigara-Full/Amigara-0.html

@soup I would tend to consider this a far less disturbing job title.

@soup only home improvement if it's not DIY

Helka Homba

11:37 PM

@Shog9 Is there any word on PPCG community ads/graduation status. We've been waiting 4 months for something that was supposed to happen in a week.

Shog9

@HelkaHomba that's a good question

I'll find out.

Helka Homba

@Shog9 Thank you!

@Shog9 why is your avatar a head?

just curious

Shog9

why, which body part would you prefer?

user311528

it's his old face

user311528

before he stole somebody else's

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

idk. I guess it's better than the opposite

user311528

not for the other person

Shog9

As you can clearly see, my avatar leans to my right, but your left, thus reflecting my deeply-held conservative values which you will nevertheless consider radical.

user311528

o_O

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

ahaha leaning
