(Definition) Maid: a female servant. (According to dictionary.com)

user202362

but maid and servant have such a different connotation

user202362

if you say someone is a public servant, you mean that person is a public official

user202362

I wonder if you could be a 'public maid' ... that some what sounds very slutty ...

We're about to failover Stack Overflow (and the entire network) to New York. We'll go read-only for just a bit.

FYI everyone I'm about to do some stuff with Smokey over the next hour or so which might cause it to break temporarily

Chat search seems to be glitching. It's not returning all results, especially recent messages.

see SNAFU above

bwDraco

I know.

Chat search has always been slow to index recent messages.

Probably I'm slow, but it's.. interesting to me that Makoto decided to nominate himself on Anime.SE, not SO

List of countries and territories by population density

This is a list of countries and dependencies ranked by human population density and measured by the number of human inhabitants per square kilometer or square mile. == Methodology == The list includes sovereign states and self-governing dependent territories based upon the ISO standard ISO 3166-1. The list also includes but does not rank unrecognized but de facto independent countries. The figures in the following table are based on areas including inland water bodies (lakes, reservoirs, rivers). Figures used in this article are mainly based on the latest censuses and official estimates (...

user202362

Macau (China) comes first with 55,001 people/square KM, Portugal is at 100th with 112 people/square KM, Australia is at 233th with 3ppl/square KM

user202362

I wonder leaving to itself, 55001 ppl/sq KM is capable of self sustaining itself ...

user202362

how productive your agriculture must be to sustain a population density like that?

@Mesentery I reported it in Charcoal for you

Mesentery

@rene Thanks, it means I need 300 rep on meta for reporting.

rene

@Mesentery no, you need to be added to the userlist for this room. The 300 rep is just a guideline to prevent inexperienced users to get those privileges. The wiki says 300 rep on one site, which you qualify for.

@Oded if you are on bug duty, something weird with /review reported and if that relies on redis this might be related

Oded

@rene there are a lot of things that rely on redis (and no, I am not on bug duty)

But yes, it is very possible these two are linked. Possibly something to do with the data center moves

rene

OK, enjoy your weekend then ;)

Oded

I do see things in the review queues now, @rene

rene

@Oded that is true for me as well.

That is what makes it weird

It is almost if they hit another server for /review

Oded

Chat search relies on ElasticSearch - which was upgraded, so that's very likely to be it (it might be that it is still indexing chat)

Getting results on that chat link going back to 2014. So - also resolved?

rene

11:02 AM

@Oded yeah, the still indexing was something noticed when it moved to DR, I saw the search becoming closer to today but it looks that particular index is stalled

Oded

Oh. newer.

rene

@Oded yeah, it sits at 8 July and that is it

And there were smokey reports after that

Oded

Yeah, will see if I can poke at something now.

rene

Ok, be careful, use a stick, not your finger ..

Bhargav Rao

@rene the DR one was autofixed in 10 mins. :\

rene

11:04 AM

@BhargavRao yeah, about that timeframe

Bhargav Rao

I think Nick is to be blamed again.

(as always)

rene

Not sure if chat.se is much bigger then chat.so

Bhargav Rao

A bit bigger. 60 rooms, 41 users on chat.so compared to 67, 51 on chat.se

(alex can give you the perfect stats)

Interestingly, the use is active on other sites, and has 10 rep on SO.

But I can't read the Bicycles post as anything but spam.

After reading the question, then the answer again, I think it's just a lost user... if the link's changed to the Wikipedia, maybe it won't be look too spammy, but still NAA.
