There are many javascript books out there but finding the right one isn't easy and they aren't cheap. So, if you had to pick exactly one book to get you from novice to sensei (yellow to black belt), which book would it be?
I'd like to get to Jon Skeet levels of expertise here and I'm looking fo...
I have noticed a lot of discussion type 'questions' that are asked on SO that get closed have some really interesting replies. I understand why these types of questions get closed and completely agree with the reasoning behind doing so. Being someone that is interested by the discussion that is g...
Proposed Q&A site for anyone who believes or fears one day humans will become infected with an unknown disease with only the desire to feed on uninfected humans.
I think that disease is called social media a la Facebook.
@timstone, but you'll have to give me your email. I don't have it.

Data explorer query returned that error, but it didn't seem complex enough to justify it:

I'm trying to do examine some apps and what kind of network traffic they're using on my iPhone.
I've set up Charles (including SSL certificates & provisioning profiles).
Then, I tethered my laptop to my iPad to get a connection, and then shared that internet with my iPhone via WiFi.

@TimStone: "Your reputation changed, but it has no effect" "Your reputation was eaten by a Grue" "Nothing to look at here" "0-Damage dealt to your reputation" "Reputation changes were reflected by the magic shield" "Hi, I slipped and accidentally deleted some records from the database, but everything should be fine now, you won't miss this reputation" — Bobby20 mins ago
waves hand This is not the reputation data you are looking for.
I've noticed the WireShark support site looks exactly like, drumroll, you guessed it: StackOverflow.
What's the deal with this? Did they purchase a StackExchange 1.0 license and refuse to give it up?
I was wondering what circumstances can cause a question or answer to be deleted, and what that actually means:
How can a post be deleted?
When can't I delete my own post?
How can I undelete one of my posts?
What does deletion mean for a post?
What else should I know about deleted posts?

well it looks like you know your way around the SE network... so you know that there is no such thing as private messages... I guess this falls into the realm of user->moderator interactions...
Mods can see your email too - so if they really want to contact you they can... However you can't force that mod to come out in the open... they usually will... but no one can "force" them...
Times zones? In fact, I don't care if got a reply or not, I just want just give info to the mod so that he can appreciate by himself if he missed something and has to be more careful next time or not.
I have often wondered at the practice on SO, SF, and the other sites where someone will ask a question and an answer will come in that says 'Look here: http://link elsewhere". Rarely will the link have exactly the answer necessary--often it's an entire article--yet these answers get voted up.

This makes me think of that Family Guy episode in the bar, Peter's about to tell a joke and he looks around to see if there would be offended people and there are, so he tells it anyways.
SE friendly version. So a guy walks into a talent agent's office, [redacted acts of depravity], Talent agent: what on earth do you call and act like that? Guy: Jeff Atwood.
