Tavern on the Meta

dim

13:04

Why are there so many off-topic programming questions ending up on SE meta? I don't see that on other sites, but meta seems to attract them.

Andras Deak

the answer to that question is not welcoming

Shadow

> On Thursday, October 10, the update to the Code of Conduct will be announced publicly

Well, it's Thursday, October 10 now.

@dim it's been like that forever, reason is still mostly unknown. People just land on MSE somehow, thinking it's the site where they wanted to post. Or in some cases, question banned users try their luck on Meta.

Journeyman Geek

Sometimes more than once

even when someone comments...

telling them its the wrong page

Shadow

I suspect people click a Featured question in the right side bar on the site where they actually wanted to ask their question, reach MSE, read the post, then going on to ask, never noticing they're in the wrong place.

The new design where all sites now look the same made it much worse.

dim

@Shadow That may be some of the reasons, indeed. In any case, it's annoying, it often clutters the front page.

Magisch

13:13

I do wonder when we'll get the coc update for the public

it might be late in the day for them which is friday night for us

Shadow

@dim true, high rep users on MSE can close and delete those. I used to do that when I was active.

Mods also used to do that, when they existed.

dim

@Magish It's early in the US. They're having a coffe, and then they'll play short straw to know who will post that.

Shadow

Now one is fired, one stepped down, one in a long vacation (?) and one was never active as mod. (For what I could have seen... never saw a single OT question he closed.)

Magisch

Unless they have a way of manually lifting it or if it per-se doesn't apply to employees, sara might be post banned

MSE still has a vestigial post ban system. Evan is post banned, for instance

Shadow

@Magisch answers only, I assume?

John Dvorak

13:15

Sara has a diamond on MSE, ever since her apology

Journeyman Geek

I wanted to ask about that, but erf...

@JohnDvorak I thought she always had it

Shadow

@JohnDvorak still, some restrictions bypass even diamond.

John Dvorak

@JourneymanGeek Nope.

Journeyman Geek

ah

Shadow

(I think a mod with less than 10 rep can't answer protected questions, for example.)

Magisch

13:16

not surprising, diamonds are handed out on an as-needed basis these days

meaning employees usually only get them when they need them

Journeyman Geek

@Shadow I think mods don't have any restrictions

and I don't know what the staff/employee flag allows

Magisch

@Shadow That would be silly, the mod can just unprotect the question, post their answer and then re-protect it

Journeyman Geek

though

mods can get review banned...

(oops)

Maybe someday when the smoke clears, egos less bruised and our little town rebuilt... ;p

I'll ask.

John Dvorak

Might make a nice meta question

Journeyman Geek

@JohnDvorak eventually

Shadow

13:18

@Magisch true.

John Dvorak

Even now, if you frame it as "completely unrelated to recent events"

Journeyman Geek

Everyone will know

Better to wait.

John Dvorak

I know they will

Journeyman Geek

Cause honestly - it seems.. cruel

John Dvorak

You mean, the question would be? I ... guess.

Journeyman Geek

13:19

yup

Magisch

@JourneymanGeek they can unban themselves, though

Journeyman Geek

@Magisch ah!

BUT I WAS TOO EMBARASSED TO

Shadow

lol

Journeyman Geek

and I was all.. "oh maaaan"

Magisch

;)

@JourneymanGeek yeah now is definitely not the time

maybe in 6-8 weeks

Journeyman Geek

13:21

Yup

Shadow

Huh! I was correct.

> moderators can't use a small number of privileges, such as answering protected questions, voting in moderator elections, and not being prompted to comment when downvoting, which only check for the required reputation

112

A: Who are the diamond moderators, and what is their role?

What special privileges do diamond moderators have? Diamond moderators are human exception handlers. The main function of diamond moderators is to follow up on flagged posts but they also have some special abilities necessary to handle rare exceptional conditions: They have access to all the ...

Journeyman Geek

ah

AFAIK there's like ... one 1 rep mod before

but she's a bit of a mystery

Shadow

Many SE employees have less than 10 net rep on most sites.

So they can't answer protected questions.

Magisch

Given that mods need 300 rep to run on nearly all sites, and that the only 1 rep mods are employees, doesn't seem that important

Journeyman Geek

@Shadow though, they pretty much need to get 200 on any one site

and if you're dealing with front end SE, that's easy

Shadow

13:23

@JourneymanGeek nope

Association bonus doesn't count.

Journeyman Geek

@Shadow ah

that kinda sucks XD

Shadow

One must earn 10 rep on the site itself.

Journeyman Geek

I doubt anyone's smart enough in 174 different subject domains XD

Shadow

lol

Staff bit might override that though, can't really know.

Journeyman Geek

yup

Magisch

13:24

you could probably finagle a couple hundred rep on every site through consistent editing

Shadow

The above applies to ordinary mods.

Magisch

but the effort, jee whiz

Journeyman Geek

@Magisch true

well 10, so 5 edits

Shadow

e.g. staff bit allow the user to add mod tags without even having a diamond.

Journeyman Geek

or a single upvote per site

... someday if I'm bored enough...

Magisch

13:25

all of this is clearly backend minutiae

Journeyman Geek

Well other than the religion sites

Magisch

if an employee needs to do something they can't they find a way to do it anyways

Journeyman Geek

@Magisch or find someone to help

Shadow

It's all a big shining mess, but that's a mess that doesn't smell bad. ;)

PM 2Ring

Speaking of diamonds, that ◊ open diamond glyph used on the dearstackexchange letters gave me an idea. When diamond mods post to sites where they aren't actually mods, the open diamond glyph could be appended to their name. That would be useful info for readers who don't know them, especially on MSE.

Magisch

13:37

at least on MSE, that'd be neat

Shadow

Would be too confusing, IMO. People would think they're mods too.

The diamond is one click away, in their profile.

PM 2Ring

@Shadow Sometimes it's not easy to spot, if they're active on many sites, but only mod on 1. At least, it's not immediately obvious on a phone, in either mobile or desktop mode.

And they are mods, who know mod stuff. They just don't have mod powers on that particular site.

Shadow

The only place where such thing exists is Area 51:

Journeyman Geek

@PM2Ring I'd actually want to start with a differenciation between mods and staff

its a bit messy when I wanted to post "unofficially" while modded

PM 2Ring

@Shadow Ah, right. A grey diamond. The open diamond might be easier for some colour-blind people.

@JourneymanGeek That would be good too. And it probably has higher priority. Often, I identify staff by their low rep, but that only works for some of them.

Q: User cards are no longer showing reputation or badges across the network

I cannot see reputation of any questioner or answerer on their user cards, but editors' rep & badges are still shown. It appears to be a network-wide issue.

PM 2Ring

On my phone, the rep's visible on the mobile site view. — PM 2Ring 28 secs ago

Shadow

@PM2Ring that's probably a bug

They always update the mobile view later.

(after a bug is reported, they never do any tests on it for some odd reason.)

Andras Deak

There's another bug where usernames and avatars are still visible. That just opens the door to all sorts of abuse. Everyone should be shown with a blank avatar and "person" as the username.

Shadow

@AndrasDeak nah

Previously, I asked about a feature request for adding a batting average, as a tool for giving more info on the person supplying the answer.

feature-request user-card

See Shog's answer.

M.A.R.

@AndrasDeak And why do we even have unique usernames? That makes no sense

Andras Deak

@M.A.R. well you need that to express yourself in the multitude of your person. User profiles are necessary and important. But tying that to questions and answers is a huge mistake

M.A.R.

Hey, Kung Fu Panda's law? I wasn't being serious.

But I think anything from now on would enforce my point that we absolutely, positively needed to discuss this.

Like, even a "hey, we're gonna do this, deal with it" post would have been better than the sheer panic and confusion

Not to mention it's honestly so rash a fix it looks like an Iranian censor trying to hide something, and the empty space is so jarring you just automatically stare at that position wondering what's not there.

Yep, cheap TV censorship. New contributor is there, I guess wildcards are there, everything is there except the numbers.

Andras Deak

I think someone's paying big bucks to SO Inc. for a social experiment. They are amping it up day by day until it all falls apart, and then publish the results.

M.A.R.

@AndrasDeak Oh man, I didn't realize we were on ferries

This is an awesome fix: meta.stackexchange.com/a/334892

On the other hand, giving any for-now-disengaged person some sort of 'impersonating' (that's a bit strong but you know what I mean) a higher rep user can cause lots of trouble.

Hanlon's razor is an aphorism expressed in various ways, including: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."An eponymous law, probably named after a Robert J. Hanlon, it is a philosophical razor which suggests a way of eliminating unlikely explanations for human behavior. == Origin == Inspired by Occam's razor, the aphorism became known in this form and under this name by the Jargon File, a glossary of computer programmer slang.

Mgetz

@AndrasDeak Yeah I'm concerned we're getting into a point in society that even well intentioned actions become extremely problematic unless the actions are perfect for all of history. Thus we judge by a set of standards that doesn't really make sense historically. That doesn't excuse any less than perfect actions it just means we need to be more understanding and forgiving of time, place, and context.

Rubiksmoose

@MonicaCellio FWIW, I personally feel like the TL is probably going to come out less toxic as a result of that (call me optimistic or naive if you wish) I think this whole ordeal (though certainly toxic at times in chat) has actually resulted in a lot of shared understanding, learning and respect even among people that have disagreed. Of course, if you get reinstated only you will be able to judge for yourself if it has changed enough.

Andras Deak

I wouldn't be surprised if they were stalling because they feared that sorting out Monica's case would make them seem like opposing LGBTQ+ users, which is a stronger wind looking at their PR strategies.
