Good for you. Most of my wife's family smokes, luckily we don't, never have. Drives us nuts cuz everytime we visit we have to do loads of laundry to get it off ya
Well glad you're OK, hopefully you won't stay away so long, even though we've never face to face met I consider you a friend, wasn't the same here w/o ya.
Yeah, I'm good, glad all is well with thee Mr 54k rep!! (tips hat and likewise with the friendship ;) As to LA, I worked there in '99, it was my first visit back :) Did a whistle-stop tour of CA breweries and eateries :) Good company, good food n beer, good weather... if anything it was too short a holiday!
Thanksgiving in Carlsbad (near San Diego), was rather nommy too :)
I did SF when I was worked out there, a speed tour over a weekend, seemed a fun city :)
@Anthon - yes, I have, I never could figure out why. I attributed it to some background task that was running through the data the next day against the previous days data.
Assumed that the checks were independent of each other
@DravSloan - got to use the snow blower today for the 3rd time. Some critters had gotten into a bag of bird seed I had in the garage. It only took them a week to find it
Is kind of strange, I have not found a pattern. For the LQ I can imagine some grey area depending on the responses. But for First Posts, IIRC I had one with 4 days delay. The OP could almost have had enough rep to do the review him/herself
@Anthon - lol, I figured there was some background tasks that were going through the posts but not knowing the table structures (for example do Q's go into a smaller table initially and then get migrated into a full table of Q's later on - for performance reasons), it's difficult to read into what's going on
What's up with community btw
i know it owns Q's and does stuff on the site but is there an actual fully documented spec that explains what that account does?
i remember reading somewhere about it but have lost this page now
@Anthon - you have a better grasp of the results such as that than I, I haven't fully pieced it together in my mind yet
@Anthon - you've explained to users when an edit was rejected and then seemingly the changes were made and you know why, I've never understood your explanation (my own limited understanding)
@DravSloan - don't be a stranger! See all the fun you're missing with trying to determine what the Community user is doing? 8-)
2 reasons why community rejects a edit: 1) reviewers hit improved, then uncheck the "this was a helpful edit" 2) the question was in 2 queues and gets edited by someone with more reputation before yours get approved
unix.stackexchange.com/review/close/32863 ... ugh. I don't want to cast the final close vote on that because it'll result in migrating crap, even if I don't vote for migration...
I have the following Perl code that I found on this SO Q&A titled: Perl HTTP server. Specifically this answer. Here's my modified code:
httpserver.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI qw/ :standard /;
use Data::Dumper;
use HTTP::Daemon;
use HTTP::Response;
use HTTP::Status;

@slm Its either stackoverflow.com/questions/79165/… or alternatively "questions asking us to recommend or find a tool, library or favorite off-site resource are off-topic for Stack Overflow" ... of course, that's the first two results from plopping svn git migrate into the SO search box.
@slm Its not really by SO standards, they require much more of question askers (quite reasonable, with the question influx they face)... And it seems like SO standards are what matter, as that's where the move is to. And migrating something that they'll immediately need to close just makes work for their mods/high-rep users. We can just as easily point to the answer on SO in a comment and close it here, without migration.
For that matter, what exactly was wrong with a bunch of static files in /dev? It's apparently unsatisfactory enough for developers to have reinvented this wheel by my count 3 times now (devfs -> udev + HAL -> udev), and now apparently it's going into the Grand Unified Init Program too, so four ti...
I'd appreciate any corrections on my answer there... That was written from memory, and that was events that are a decade ago. And which I wasn't hugely involved in, but mostly an observer.
