@JourneymanGeek Out of curiosity, why give a binding "Leave Open" review to this task? From the answers, it seemed like a duplicate. (I was the one who voted, and I noticed your review because I monitor review tasks.)

Journeyman Geek

@SonictheInclusiveHedgehog I disagreed it was a dupe

I think that much ought to be obvious

Sonic the Inclusive Hedgehog

@JourneymanGeek Yes, the not-so-obvious question was, "why do you think it's not a duplicate?".

Journeyman Geek

because I don't.

the whole point of a review queue is for people to review things and make a decision.

I made a decision, and really feel that getting second guessed about these decisions is tiring.

I'll happily explain myself to a reasonable extent, but that extent is not spending half an hour explaining what's at most a 30 second decision.

@SonictheInclusiveHedgehog that's what it'd look like to the user themselves, if they were banned

Rob

What's the 'Declined in the last 7 days' indicate? That they had one flag declined in the last 7 days? It kinda looks like it says all those flags below it were the ones declined in the last 7 days.

Journeyman Geek

@Rob Plausible but unlikely? ;p

Shog9

2:11 AM

@Rob that's an excellent observation. It's a filter that lists all flags which were declined during the past 7 days - useful if you're banned.

ArtOfCode

@Shog9 Got a filter icon that you can stick in front of it? That'd do the job

Shog9

ugh

ArtOfCode

stick an aria-label on it for bonus points

Rob

Ah, I thought it was a header or an already-selected filter.. in which case the posts below it should already be filtered

Journeyman Geek

._.

Rob

2:16 AM

But I like the new look - looks very clean

Shog9

@Rob that a bit more obvious?

That's what it'd look like with a different filter selected.

Rob

Yep, much clearer

Catija

Does it use stacks?

I don't really know how Stacks works but it seems like they have guidelines for design elements that we're moving stuff to.

and myself

Looks like it

Journeyman Geek

@Catija isn't the idea to move all the things into Stacks? ;p

Shog9

2:31 AM

@Catija yeah, I'm kinda mimicking the design of stackoverflow.com/legal

Catija

Ah, nice.

Ugh... the arrows on that page don't expand... they're just decorative bullets.

Journeyman Geek

(grumble grumble badux angry tweet etc)

3:23 AM

@Catija I'm liking Stacks and I don't even work there :P

Shog9

3:38 AM

No stacks:

With stacks:

...that was an unfortunate typo. I think it's time for bed...

Sonic the Inclusive Hedgehog

@Shog9 You go to bed so early these days? I thought you were an hour behind us...

Journeyman Geek

looks better with ~~slacks~~ stacks

Shog9

3:55 AM

It's dark

and cold

Sonic the Inclusive Hedgehog

4:07 AM

@Shog9 Same here; your home not have an adequate furnace?

Shog9

of course it does

and adequate lighting

Journeyman Geek

not the same as lovely thermonuclear fire in the sky I suppose

Shog9

but I sit, cold, in the dark... In solidarity with the shrubs that weather the cold wind outside

this is the time of year for contemplation, depression, and futile slumber

Sonic the Inclusive Hedgehog

@JourneymanGeek Let me guess...Singapore lies close enough to the Equator so seasons aren't much of an issue there?

Journeyman Geek

@SonictheInclusiveHedgehog pretty much

Rob

4:10 AM

Gah, I miss the snow. Tomorrow's gonna be 37 (99F). Yesterday it was 20ish (68F)

Sonic the Inclusive Hedgehog

@Rob San Diego was that hot last summer

@JourneymanGeek Out of curiosity, were you around during the shooting of Krrish?

Rob

I don't particularly mind it being that hot. It's just that going from cold to stupidly hot every other day is annoying. It's like living in one of those Finnish saunas in the snow.

Journeyman Geek

of what?

so I guess no

Sonic the Inclusive Hedgehog

@JourneymanGeek A 2006 Hindi film that was shot on location in Singapore.

Journeyman Geek

@Rob its consistantly stupidly hot here

Rob

4:15 AM

I'd love that. Stupidly hot or stupidly cold both suit me.. As long as it's consistent

Sonic the Inclusive Hedgehog

San Diego is moderately inconsistent, and getting less consistent each year

Austin is wildly inconsistent. The weather is just unpredictable, with cold, rainy days mixed in with hot days.

Journeyman Geek

@SonictheInclusiveHedgehog possibly not.

Shog9

4:31 AM

ok, last idle question of the night...

Option #A (current)

or...

Option #B

Journeyman Geek

Option A is clearer to what it does

I wouldn't be averse to having it up top thought

Rob

I kinda feel like having the number at the start makes it look like a heading, not a filter. What about "All post and comment flags (480)" and "Flags declined in the last 7 days (8)"

Er, heading's not the right word. It makes it look like just information, not really a filter

That said though, sometimes those kind of things are obvious when you're able to click around and play with it, rather than just a screenshot

and myself

Does this mean it's possible to select multiple filters?

Shog9

all of the indented lines are combo-filters - type + status

that's the extent to which you can combine them though

well... You can combine "declined last 7 days" with any of the rest if you compose the URL manually, but there's no UI

(nor is it particularly useful)

and myself

then I guess Option #A is clearer

with either "Clear" or perhaps "Reset filters"

Catija

4:44 AM

@Rob I'm not sure about the parentheticals but I do think that keeping the [heading] ________ [quantity] the same for the main headings and sub-headings makes sense.

Rob

Oh, yep. Putting the quantity right aligned would look nicer
