It looks like chat is https as well but SEDE isn't nor is it mentioned in the question. There was a new report today that got deleted. Is it correct to assume SEDE is not going to be served over https or is it just a matter of priorities this hasn't been done yet?
and if the editor is unhappy whack him on the nose with a rolled up newspaper let them know that the posts feed into the spam filters so editing them dosen't help
eh. Not all spam is autocaught.
The price of freedom (from spam) is eternal vigilence ;p
@JuliaSilge Hello! I just got a chance to look at the Comment Evaluator 5000 UI. I noticed that the comments aren't attributed to their authors (as cc by-sa requires). Have y'all checked with the lawyers to see if that's legal, or are you just assuming that nobody will want the comments attributed? cc @Undo
@Bart congrats! Now please make sure all your questions and answers are on par with the site guidelines and policies. See How to Ask in the Help center and read the faq
Does anyone else notice a difference in quick scrolling this MSE post and this WB post? For me in chrome it indeed jumps/isn't smooth while the MSE one doesn't experience that. Reported here but it isn't so slow for me.
@Shog9 you might want to ping some people of SO Enterprise to look at SO Enterprise WAM one login on MSO in case no one saw it yet. It gets some down votes and comments to scare that user away.
@thesecretmaster @Undo The legal team has been involved at all stages, because there are complicated, interrelated issues at play. There is tension between our responsibility to protect from online harm (i.e. calling out individuals) and the spirit of the CC-BY-SA license requirement (intended to give the author due credit for authorship).
If this is something you want to escalate or get more info on, we can likely point you to more resources or the right people!
@JuliaSilge I understand the conflict between the license and protection, but I would've thought that the law would go above the ethical issues here because Stack Exchange doesn't want to risk a lawsuit. Did the lawyers tell y'all it was legal to omit attribution in this circumstance? I'm asking because I'm working on a very similar comment evaluation tool, and I'd like to omit attribution, but I'm unsure about the legality.
@thesecretmaster I'm not sure what your legal burden would be, balancing the various issues and responsibilities on you. That was what our legal team had to sort through for us as Stack Exchange. It's not an issue of law vs. ethics, but legal burdens of various types.
@thesecretmaster @JuliaSilge I believe the unofficial comment evaluator being worked on by some users added in a link, but invalidated the review if the user clicked on the link.
In my personal opinion, Instead of implementing lot of CoC and rules, just remove all the barricades and invite new users to the jungle. Let them hear all roars, barks, meows and everything.
