Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also t...
I've got an edge case here. The accepted answer to stackoverflow.com/questions/5863637/… is completely wrong, apparently the OP realised this and asked more or less the same question a month later: stackoverflow.com/questions/6182402/… The accepted answer to that one is correct. Should I VTC the first one as a duplicate of the second one?
I was on chat in stackoverflow and noticed that some of the message had grey stars with a black border and others were just black stars? What is the difference between the 2?
@AmalMurali Who designs a scripting language with exception that returns boolean values as success code? That sounds a lot like C for me, which should a good scripting language abstract.
But I forgot. php is not a programming language, its a mess.
Unit @Pëkka be advised, we have a code 84 in progress on Meta Stack Overflow, repeat, a question about kbd functionality newly posted on Meta Stack Overflow.
No problem. As for the meat of your request, one of those questions has an official response from a dev that said they're investigating, so as far as I'm concerned everything is working as planned.
In the prior top bar, the rep dropdown would show you the votes you got after you hit the rep cap, just with no rep showing. The new dropdown for the new top bar no longer shows you that you received those votes. I end up having to go to my profile and hit the reputation tab to see if I got any...
Ten codes are notoriously inconsistent from one locality to another. You're usually good with 10-4, 10-2, 10-3, 10-20 and 10-88, I think, but other than that....
I like the idea of having high-rep users vote-to-close/migrate on the front end (maybe make it a 20k privilege), and then have high-rep users vote-to-accept on the back end (maybe just a 10k privilege).
After the first migration vote, you could have it in those respective queues on both sites to...
Various SE staff have said the hover popup is not coming back and have suggested "make a case for putting that information somewhere else." Ok, here are some thoughts and suggestions:
Loss of the hover popup was the highest-voted complaint about the new top bar when it was tested on meta.
Vo...
@ShadowWizard, no I don't think that really covers showing non-rep votes, it seems more about placement and hovering (which I don't really care about).
@Pops sorry can't find such answer, unless you mean my own answer on this question? I am indeed web developer but last I checked, no payroll from Stack Exchange... ;-)
We are aware of the issue and are looking into this, though I don't expect that anything will happen before the new year (people are on vacation at Stack Exchange too...). — OdedDec 23 '13 at 21:22
Wow, that was weird. Posted a problem with the rep summary showing me an unupvote that wasn't being compensated for. It was pointed out to me that it was probably based on an older vote. I deleted the question. Now suddenly I got 10 more rep, and I see that the unupvote in my rep summary is no longer showing a value.
Dumb question for you: what does LKML stand for in txtspk? Urban Dictionary didn't have an entry, and Google tells me it's "Linux Kernel Mailing List."
I'm not sure, @qwerty. I realized after you sent it that my old address was still on there. Fortunately, my Dad lives at my old address, so he said he'd let me know when it comes in =)
@hichris123 Apparently a way for you to give your address to people and then they can send you either (a) something off of your wishlist, or (b) a bomb.
It must be for grandmothers who are tech savvy and come up with the idea to google your name with "amazon wish list" after it, then hope they get the right person.
No, you weren't supposed to buy me a barrel full of tree bark! Yes, I know it was on my wishlist, but you aren't supposed to buy things for me from that one. You buy things for me from my wishlist, not my wishlist.
@Undo What do you mean by "tone down"? Make the cap a smaller number, like 100 rep? Or make make the cap less likely to occur by increasing the amount of rep it takes to hit it?
Certainly seems technically possible. I don't know how the system is coded, so I don't know how much dev work it would be. If you really think it'll help a lot, take it to MSO?
I think it makes sense, because it allows early contributors to be rewarded more. OTOH: if you only hit the rep cap a couple of times, the difference between "earned" and "allowed" rep is probably small, and the rep cap probably doesn't hurt too much; and if you hit it a bunch of times, you'll probably continue to do so, since you're obviously an active user, and your rep will eventually speak for itself, capped or not.
I wonder if you created a Wishlist on your own site, and linked all the items to Amazon with your referral link, you'd get the associates bonus and the item shipped to you?
@animuson Only one way to find out! (Well, actually two. You could ask amazon. They would probably tell you. But it's much more fun to con someone else in to buying something for you to test it)
