The Overflow #45: What we call CI/CD is actually only CI.

Medi Madelen Gwosdz on October 30, 2020

Welcome to ISSUE #45 of the Overflow! This newsletter is by developers, for developers, written and curated by the Stack Overflow team and Cassidy Williams at Netlify. This week: why the meaning of 60Hz depends on whether you are a monitor or a lightbulb, how the community team smashed 631 tickets in just two weeks, and why what we…

Q: Is there a limit to flag length after retracting one flag?

I recently flagged a comment as no longer required but I needed to flag it again. Genuinely, I wasn't allowed to flag for "not required" so I used moderator attention. The new message which I posted had the limit of 200 only. I could barely write: delete this | I retracted the nolongerneeded fla...

support flags character-limit

7:22 PM

@QueenieGoldstein yeah it's annoying some limits are even shorter than Tweets.... But it wasn't a bug :)

🚽ノ( ゜-゜ノ)

Career switch to plumber?

I think they're just reloading for the next blog post

Could be.

Guess we'll never know ;)

@Tinkeringbell Plot twist: Batman was the first human link of the virus while training with Ra'as al Ghul in China (which is a cover-up for funnelling some money to Chinese corporations for tax evasion)

@M.A.R. isn't that the plot of X-Men? Register all weird superheroes to prevent stuff like this?

8:55 PM

@user400654 Shows off Halloween costume, and favorite candy:

@Tinkeringbell I don't think even Wolverine can stop tax evasion

Also X-men?! MEN?!

i mean

it's mostly accurate

except when it's not

@user400654 I was parroting Deadpool but forgot the next exact quote

The X-force arc in Deadpool 2 was diabolical

i feel awful admitting i've never watched deadpool

X-people just doesn't sound as interesting

9:08 PM

I feel great admitting that

X-females might be interesting but feel like a cheap rip-off made for the money

i just don't get much enjoyment sitting in front of a TV

@user400654 tv is like a side dish. The booze, snacks and blankets are what makes it good ;)

can still have all of that, while doing not tv

Worse, I'd expect x-females to be feminist propaganda :D

9:10 PM

:p

@user400654 true, true. But after some booze, tv becomes much more tolerable :P

@JohnDvorak why would females need propaganda?! We're already far superior :P

@Tinkeringbell side dishes can also be better with a drop of wine

@Tinkeringbell YEEAH, "GIRL POWER"

I love how The Boys makes fun of this "girl power".

I'd make fun of boy power sooner than girl power :P

You guys should definitely watch it. Not too much sexual content, but definitely very gory

9:18 PM

...nah

People start to look like balloons filled with goo after a bit on the show.

Hmm

TMI

i've watched S1, gonna wait a while on S2

IMO the tick was better

@user400654 Oh, my personal opinion is S1 is pretty inferior to S2

S2 is great. It's something you can call a good TV show regardless of its context, if that means anything

@JohnDvorak more booze is always good :P when's happy hour btw?

@M.A.R. excuse me, women or female power. There's more kinds of female than just Girl!

Woah. Quickest star ever, I think

9:25 PM

🚽

It's not as catchy, and we don't want to conceal our hidden sexism behind assuming every woman wants to be younger and referred to as a "girl", so there. /s

@user400654 Oof, that hits as hard as a downvote!

Sonic the K-Day Hedgehog

@Tinkeringbell Since DST is ending here, one hour earlier as of next week

@user400654 Oh hey, I haven't even made my cruelest jokes yet

@user400654 Anyway just for making small talk, what did you think of S1?

Certainly had its moments, but the backhanded jab at religion in general was unwarranted (but a thing with the writer I think unfortunately) And, well, reminds me of my own position regarding some of these matters.

It was interesting enough for me to want to watch the whole season,

i liked the jab at religion, being someone that's... well, frustrated with how much religion is being made a part of our state's government

9:32 PM

If you frame your position as one that would immediately be sympathetic to a political party, you would no longer be nice, you would be partisan.

That's the biggest defense for not-so-nice people. That it's partisan, that them Dems want to shove something down our throats, and it's become part of a trend that will go away once the sheep are disillusioned.

@user400654 Heh, okay, trust me, check out S2. It had real moments of empathy and passion. It wasn't just a satire of the superhero genre anymore.

originally i was waiting for the whole season to become available, so i can watch it uninterrupted and thus not lose interest/forget about it

now... i'm hooked on skyrim so i do that instead

@SonictheK-DayHedgehog thanks, that really doesn't help XD

Sonic the K-Day Hedgehog

23:00 UTC is the time

Also need to get a mount for my TV... got some new furniture and now it's at an inconvenient angle for viewing

Sonic the K-Day Hedgehog

I really liked it when TVs could stand on their own with no help

9:42 PM

@user400654 Oof! But what's the new furniture like?

Sonic the K-Day Hedgehog

Sadly, the days when a TV could stand on its own as its own piece of furniture are long gone

new dresser, it's taller than the old one

just enough taller that the colors on the TV get all weird

and it won't tilt down

Ah, that sucks :(

course, i could always watch it in the main room

Nah... You need a way to better mount the tv :P
