@Quill Here is one: unique answerers per month

Quill

Thanks

I'm doing a little math on finding a realistic goal for a community "let's answer stuff" bounty challenge thing

user315433

There is another query that excludes one-time answerers by requiring at least 10 answers (not necessarily in a month). As written, it's limited to the past year, though easy to edit.

user315433

Web Apps answerers are about 25-30 in number...

Goddamn it. Basic type coercion question gets HNQ... stackoverflow.com/q/37998267/3296811 There's probably half a million questions with the same answer of "it's called type coercion" out there unflagged as dupes

user315433

But this one has an answer that's better than "it's called type coercion".

Quill

He's already answered the same goddamn question: stackoverflow.com/a/5101991/3296811

Quill

12:48 AM

Meh, it's all the same root issue.... yet we have iteration after iteration of "omg. js is broken, look at thing it does with =="

user315433

Well, I didn't know that >= and == coerce dates differently, and I wouldn't learn it from the older question.

Quill

Meh. a lot of the barriers are related to computing power

user202362

I think it has very little to do with computing power

hichris123

Research in biology has spanned thousands of years. You could apply that same argument to 'why haven't we cured all diseases?'.

tchrist

Someday you will choose to omit things from your résumé.

Quill

On a side note, PHP is most chatrooms' external enemy:

> The external enemy -- nothing causes a group to galvanize like an external enemy.
So even if someone isn't really your enemy, identifying them as an enemy can cause a pleasant sense of group cohesion. And groups often gravitate towards members who are the most paranoid and make them leaders, because those are the people who are best at identifying external enemies.

user202362

Programming languages are like tools, you choose the right tool for the task in your hand.

Andy

1:38 AM

@Quill You've not missed much, other than a lot more noise.

Quill

That's why I've been avoiding it. I don't want to deal with some drama because people want to view feedback as gamification

I liked it more when feedback numbers weren't available. In fact, I didn't even know my name meant anything to how I was giving feedback

user202362

There is no 'better' or 'worse' for any commonly used languages in this world. You can only say for a certain task, which languages suit better.

Andy

It's not even that noise. It's just...noise.

hichris123

@Andy I'm fine with SE-related noise. Non-SE related noise belongs in here. :P

Andy

I've complained all I'm going to. I tried to say my peace in there - got a bunch of stars, not much changed. Smokey is good, but users are using it to game Metasmoke and SE at the point - both for bigger numbers on each and to troll spammers.

I'm just stepping out for a week and enjoying my vacation. I'll fight that battle when I return :)

user315433

1:43 AM

Solution: ignore everyone but Smokey.

hichris123

Or ignore everything, that works too...

user315433

But vacation is a better solution still.

Andy

Eh. That doesn't work. There are legitimate conversations that I either want to see or be part of. I'm going to just stick with "enjoy vacation and worry about it later"

hichris123

Yeah, that's a good idea. Except occasionally writing something when on vacation gets upvotes (I wrote meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/325787/… on vacation)

So I just cracked down and got productive. I finished the MVP this afternoon, even tho it was projected to be done next Wed. The other interns say functionality doesn't matter and have their own (build-failing) branch where they add on to what I write (wrote, hours ago, they're out of date) with React (rather than replace it, even tho their complaint is that my code is unreadable, which they're not changing (nor is it valid criticism)).

They literally don't care about user-facing functionality. They just want to stroke their hipster mustaches and make "the code look good".

WTF.

At least they're prevented from merging into master until they fix their own huge pile of bugs that prevent the build from succeeding.

Today's xkcd comic (Theft Quadrants):

TinyURL was the most popular link shortener for long enough that it made it into a lot of printed publications. I wonder what year the domain will finally lapse and get picked up by a porn site.

Isn't meta drama fabulous...

> I got an even better idea: stop going after individuals because you don't like something they wrote. Not on meta, not on the main site, not in chat, and certainly not via email.

You can divide meta?

I guess it'd be better than some April Fools jokes...

@hichris123 Dutch humor in the comments links rijden was toch altijd al klote xD

hichris123

What does that mean? Maybe I should go learn dutch...

Ah, Google Translate seems to have worked decently enough to get the gist.

loosely translated Driving on the left-side always su**ed anyway*

Wasn't there a dupe of meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/326821/… just a little while ago? Maybe it was on mSE...

Hmm, I thought it was linked to meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/290126/…. I guess not.

Maybe the question was deleted...

help?

hichris123

You leaked your name by the way...

@Doorhandle You probably mean (tmpAICtrl.AIDFR ? 32000 : 48000) / 2?

that ^ sounds about right , assuming a ternary

See, I'm a C++ expert. With near zero tag score...

I'm on my way to a gold badge: stackoverflow.com/search?q=user%3Ame+%5Bc%2B%2B%5D

I probably had a time I answered every featured question or so?

hichris123

You used user:me... I thought at first you were mocking me. :P

rene

Ha, sorry :D

hichris123

That's okay, I deserve mocking. 4 questions, zero answers, net score of +5.

Wow, that's a bad tag wiki. Probably copied from somewhere too: stackoverflow.com/tags/confluent/info

I wonder if it would be possible to compare the search results in the related questions dropdown for the ask questions interface with the search results of only roomba'd questions to be used as some sort of indication of problems. If there are 4000 roomba matches and only 150 related matches then perhaps it could be a sign that the question will fall into a common pitfall. Does that sound reasonable at all?

Or, more broadly, is there any signal that can be derived from the roomba to help users when asking questions?

hichris123

Hmm, that's an interesting thought. But it would be really hard to get data on that...

Travis J

@hichris123 - Hard to get data on which aspect? Couldn't it be tested using the general "A/B" group testing approach and just comparing closure rates?

Or perhaps a myriad of closure rates, vote counts, and views.

hichris123

@TravisJ Well, I'm not sure much of the related questions data is even logged, no less taking into account deleted questions.
