Ok, getting better all the time... Melissa finally moved out on Saturday, starting to get my alone-time back... released a simple app on the android marketplace, learning for more
@Fosco Yeah I danced around the Melissa issue because I wasn't sure what specifically to say, but, enjoy your newfound freedom I suppose is fitting :-)
Like @drachenstern I didn't think "congratulations" was exactly right ;-)
> I feel kinda lame getting it for a question format I devised though, especially since sed format doesn't really permit others to answer my question and has a crap ton of answers
was just pointing out in a snarky way that there are still some things to discuss with the edit ssytem :-) If anything I'm more poking at Jeff for deleting what I thought wa s avalid questiona while back ;-)
@waffles cool, as long as you don't think I'm out to get you or hate the new feature :-) I want to amke sure I don't come across like that, LOL
just want to help make my favorite places even better than they already are! :-D
but the more I look at edits on SO the more I agree that you need more than one approval ... we see so many edits where 2 approve and 1 rejects (and the reverse)
OpenCola is a brand of cola unique in that the instructions for making it are freely available and modifiable. Anybody can make the drink, and anyone can modify and improve on the recipe as long as they, too, license their recipe under the GNU General Public License. Since recipes are, by themselves, not copyrightable, the legal basis for this is untested.
The original version 1.0 was released on 27th January 2001. Current Version is 1.1.3. Although originally intended as a promotional tool to explain free and open source software, the drink took on a life of its own and 150,000 cans wer...
@Kragen yeah I have thought about this quite a lot ... I think I saw a suggestion somewhere ... I am not totally opposed to adding comments on the edit suggestion permalink page
After reading Suggested edits that add an answer to the question, linked in the comments was a suggested edit that was rejected. I thought I'd leave a comment to the new user who suggested it so they would know what happened, why the edit was rejected, and how to ask a new question:
@OFG: You...
This is probably one of those people who has 10 toolbars in their browser and 3 types of malware opening popups on every webpage. Yeah, it's my fault your browser freezes when you go to PayPal.

Jesus Christ Almighty, what a f***ing mess of a website. I'm trying to post a question. Just the one, you know, f***ing question. So I sign up for an ID and I'm sent an email that doesn't real...
Dozens of mails from one guy, all CC'd to the FBI, to the whitehouse, to the CIA and to random individual senators, full of multicolored multi-font claims of violations of "federal child protection laws"... because an automated system declined his order on a website as a fraud risk.
@DanGrossman don't worry about it just a spanish particularity very difficult to get for people who speak english singe the word is associated with the person and gender

@drachenstern Rubbish. @Moshe surely missed out on the hot grits and petrified Natalies. (Goes to show when the last time I visited /. was...I'm sure that newer memes have been circulating in the time since.)
@Reno, to complete your education of post-war bbc radio comedy, you could also try Hancock's Half Hour. Completely different type of humour - he had the most impeccable timin.
@TimStone Not really. Because I click Log In and click my open id provider before it shows me the banner. So then it just takes me to the "Change OpenId" page.
Use either the IN clause, or a JOIN like in this example:
$query = sprintf("SELECT tu.*
FROM TAGUSERS tu
JOIN FRIENDTABLE ft ON ft.usera = tu.username
WHERE ft.userB = '%s'",
mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username'...
Why is his 3 minute old answer a community wiki? Is he voluntarily turning all his answers into wikis?
mysql> SELECT SQL_NO_CACHE * FROM websites WHERE userId IN (SELECT ID FROM users WHERE username = 'dangrossman');
21 rows in set (4.26 sec)
mysql> SELECT SQL_NO_CACHE websites.* FROM websites INNER JOIN users ON websites.userId = users.ID AND users.username = 'dangrossman';
21 rows in set (0.01 sec)
Personally I would have written that as a join anyway to express my intent more clearly (IMO), but I'd be disappointed if my DB treated the two quite that differently.
I'm looking for something fairly simple for clients to use and very easy for me to skin (somewhat complicated themes). something like Perch or Couchcms, but has to be open source to satisfy some license requirements..
I can't really seem to find any CMS that is like this {Wordpress, drupal etc a...
I am not sure my title fully explains what I mean. I thought this might be an interesting question.
If I had a set of keywords, broken with a dash or 2, will search engines consider the dashed split keyword as maybe a full keyword?
Say I have a site that sort of breaks words down, like the dict...

Brilliant, he posted all his code, then describes his question like this
I am using the following css to create a popout menu with information when a user hovers over a particular link. How can I modify the follow code so the user could click on a link within the span? As of right now the second the mouse moves off the original link, the div disappears.

Even if something better does come along, so many sites now use it that it will still be around for years to come anyway as a "legacy" framework.
@DanGrossman Not really - if you consider that with proper caching it's only ever downloaded at most once for a website (and possibly not even that frequently if you use commonly hosted copies)
The HTML part alone of that last question you posted is ~8KB, which is around a quarter of the size of the minified jQuery - so if once you visit more than 4-5 pages on a site the size of jQuery starts to becomes more and more insignificant compared to the content.
What if Google injects a Doubleclick cookie into 1% of requests to its copy of jQuery? How many will notice before they've gathered billions of points of data!
@Reno Don't capitalize 'thanks' and 'hi' bits; remove them. Also, use Markdown, not just for code blocks, but also for lists and inline code. And don't just correct grammar blindly, rewrite some sentences so that they make sense
DO
Add capitalization
Correct txtspk
Correct spelling (not American/British differences)
Correct code formatting
(If possible) layout code to prevent horizontal scrolling
Remove Hi/thanks/signatures
Edit titles to more faithfully represent the intent of the question
DON'T
Do ridiculously sm...
@YiJiang thanks that was interesting i do most of it , ( except removing hi and thanks or smileys. ) because i dont think i have the right to remove someones expressions :)
If you mean the "How to remove .zip file in c on windows? (error: Directory not empty)" question, then I probably wouldn't bother - the question is a wall of code and will be closed soon unless it changes radically. Removing the comments won't make much difference.
