@Unihedron same here
bored
 
lots of spam today
 
If a question has been answered in the comments, what should be done about such questions ?
 
@ItachiUchiha most often, cv/typo -> dv

Ever thought about that this could be a genuine inability of that user (and possibly others) to express themselves with good formatting? As long as the content is good and salvaging edits get not rejected, I think we have much more important fronts to achieve real improvements on overall quality. — PlasmaHH 43 mins ago
@ItachiUchiha post it as an answer and make it a community wiki
 
@ItachiUchiha If you bother, expand them into a proper answer - comments are not for answering. If you don't want to give users the impression you're stealing the idea or doing this just for rep, make it Community Wiki.
 
@InfiniteRecursion Hmm !
 
[ SmokeDetector ] All-caps title: HOW TO ADD ROWS THROUGH VF PAGE on salesforce.stackexchange.com
 
salesforce has a separate stackexchange page. Why ?
 
@ItachiUchiha meaning?
 
10:26 AM
@ItachiUchiha Because it was proposed on Area 51 and it got off the ground somehow?
 
@Unihedron Man ! Salesforce is a company which used some technology based on java and few other technologies
A company has a stackexchange sub-domain is interesting
I wonder, after few year we will have microsoft.se.com
oracle.se.com
google.se.com

@AndrewT. Exactly, that the general point I was trying to make. If a user chooses to format an answer in his own way, is there anything fundamentally wrong with it? It may look like a car crash to you and me, but to him it's perfect. — DavidG 1 min ago
umm, consider creating a FAQ for formatting & readability?
 
@AndrewT. Totally worth my commitment...
 
@ItachiUchiha Anyone can propose in Area51 if they feel it will be helpful for many users, what is wrong if it's a company's name? There is apple.stackexchange.com , sharepoint.stackexchange.com and tons more...
 
10:40 AM
goes to propose se.se.com
No, it will probably be closed as duplicate of Meta. goes to propose github.se.com
 
@Unihedron lolz
 
naruto.se.com
 
Yeah, catlovers got closed as a dupe of Pets.SE. :P
 
10:59 AM
@AndrewT. There are ton's of posts on MSE and MSO with [status-faq] about how to edit, so we don't need to write one, but that user went ahead and added grey backgounds to all the images in my question, it looks ugly now :(
 
finally, droids.se.com
 
How about droiddev.se.com
:P
 
lol, even better, you are a Uchiha indeed :P
 
Biodiversity:
I strike it up to bio-diversity; you can't force everyone to think the same because that's not how we're programmed. There are people who take the time and effort to ensure courtesy, and there are people who roll their eyes and only wonder why people make such a fuss; 'if you can read the text then why make a point of when something is bold or not'. Both have a place in this world AND on SO (or any other stackexchange site) in my opinion. — Gimby 6 mins ago

Hi @ShadowWizard, nice new profile image
 
@InfiniteRecursion thanks! kids grow fast, so it was time to update to something more recent ;)

@Unihedron yep, 44235 with it so not so rare :)
@InfiniteRecursion nah, many people dislike Stack Overflow after being bashed with downvotes, it's a surprise we don't have more like these
 
Yeah 4k rep!
Never mind, doesn't unlock any new privileges.
 
@ShadowWizard .....and I used to think we have too many, maybe my expectations are too high
@Unihedron Too much rep....start giving bounties !!
 
You know me too well! I haven't been surfing for questions lately though, and didn't really notice if there were interesting posts around. :P
 
11:21 AM
@Unihedron Can you link it ?
 
Yes, I am looking through Skeet's answers to tempt you to give some bounties to him. You can't stop yourself if you see a good answer, everybody knows that.

My coal keeps capping off when I'm away from that tab.
I also have a dozen of workers with the contemplated skill set which are going to die in 20 years.
 
@InfiniteRecursion Advised the new user to take a tour.
 
Note to self: Allocating a 256k array just because you might need it - why not? Allocating hundreds of these? Not so good.
 
11:43 AM
 
@Unihedron He took the tour !
 
Well, I guess I should ask for users to eval the tour as well...
 
Aww, that user in the pic got destroyed.

What you mean by cpr?
 
@Unihedron A shovel to the head.
 
Sam
lol
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation commonly known as (CPR) is an emergency procedure performed in an effort to manually preserve intact brain function until further measures are taken to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person who is in cardiac arrest. It is indicated in those who are unresponsive with no breathing or abnormal breathing, for example, agonal respirations. According to the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation guidelines, CPR involves chest compressions at least 5 cm (2 in) deep and at a rate of at least 100 per minute in an effort to create artificial...

I will ;)
 
@Braiam Those are amazingly difficult to tighten without quadrupling the number of support cases we get from people complaining that they can't post questions.
 
@TimPost make it four times harder to complain that yoou can't post a question ;-)
 
Solution: Switch to Fuzzy regex checks for smokey :)
 
better yet: squeeze each question through NLP (Python has a good one) and flag if it fails
 
Just flag ALL the questions as VLQ! The end is near!!!

Without Bart? You kidding, he's on the last message. And your above his.
 
Sorry...the other rooms' messages pushed them down for me. Thanks for the fhbc @uni.
 
Huh? I'm in five rooms, what's your screen resolution?
 
I am on mobile web browser right now :(
 
oh... :o you can hold click on "rrr starred messages" and open in new tab to view them
My mobile only shows the pinned message to be honest.

Ok :)
Someone should unpin it - no one is asking for goodies in the tavern nowadays, looks like every got their stuff, so it can be unpinned.
 
@TimPost my swag, where is!?
 
Now we are the only ones who see it, and feel jealous for not getting goodies.

A: How to deal with persistent incorrect formatting?

Bill3You would suspect a forum full of programmers would have this formatting a bit more automated. As a noob here, I was kinda surprised they have people scour the posts to make the kind of edits they do. The answer would be to ask "How to automate formatting on Stack Overflow" and implement the solu...

Q: No more "about" page, time to change the Informed badge description

Shadow WizardCurrently the Informed badge description says: Read the entire about page. And the link http://stackoverflow.com/about redirects to http://stackoverflow.com/tour. Since the "about" page was replaced with a "tour" page, guess it's about time to change the summary.

Where's my Informer badge?

@JanDvorak Payment Card Industry requirements. Were you being facetious?
 
I was too lazy to read the post
 
haha.
 
Any time you run a credit card transaction with cardholder data, you need to secure the data. You don't stash it anywhere, you encrypt transmission of it, etc, etc...
 
He thinks you created the reputation system @uni:
I didn't know you created the reputation system. But I can't give credit to people that have been helpful to me with the system as it is and I can't put my comment where it should be. So yes, I think the reputation system is messed up. — Bill3 1 min ago

DON'T SHOUT @JAN
You could always go the Jon Skeet route and write a blog entry on how to properly format a question that many people read over time, then link it in your profile, then amass an extraordinary amount of rep / profile views such that everyone on the internet has read it or doesn't have an excuse to not have read it. :) — xDaevax 5 mins ago

Maybe he's sleep-taverning?

well i'm gone by then, I can't stay up too late, still have school tomorrow :p
 
You should sleep @uni, it's late for you. If you hang out in the tavern like this, one day you will become @Bart
 
This video is not available in your country.

Sorry about that.

Sometimes I think I'm good at maths.
Then I look at the front page of MathOverflow, curl in a corner and cry...

@Unihedron MO is for theoric/research math, isn't it?
 
3:08 PM
Well yeah, it just reminds me that I will never be truly good at maths.
 
It's the same for SO though. We all call ourselves programmers, but I have no clue about the far majority of the content being posted.
 
How can you like coding and not love maths?
 
@InfiniteRecursion Like I like writing code yet I loath handwriting anything at all
 
Well, it's an amazing trait. It's like people who plays games all the time likes fast food.
If you code a lot you will get the hang of logic and maths eventually, but MO still makes me cry.
 
Then perhaps I am the odd one out. I like writing too, along with drawing and amateur painting
 
3:13 PM
I like writing and authoring articles, just not a master of it.

Thanks @TGMCians, I though OP might have deleted it. Good to know.
 
he got an answer from bart as a comment, but the post was nuked
 
@InfiniteRecursion it's simple: edit when you see it and move on. If they persist, continuously roll back, or if it's unacceptably horrendous each and every time, notify a mod.
