Hi, ok here is a link to the question I need help with, as previsouly mentioned, I'm in the middle of looking over algorithm problems, it's meant to be simple, but I'm struggling to answer it... cs.stackexchange.com/questions/41428/…
@Raphael I am currently in the processed of being closed on another site, though I wrote my question very carefully, editing it to account for what people see as ambiguous. Basically the reason is: we never thought about that, hence it has to be opinion based. I am only asking whether a given type of mathematical result is ever used in their work ... meaning in some published work. I do not wish to participate in a process that is so poorly regulated that it leads to such abuse.
BTW I was not even doing it to get an example of what I find abusive.
Thinking about it, I saw it happen on TCS. There was a perfectly good question by a novice user. It attracted only jeers and downvotes, because it was apparently looked at by algorithmic types, while it was more semantics (I do not know why semanticists stayed out). I was outraged and asked them to have the decency to stop and have it transferred to CS, where it was well received.
@ComputerScienceMeta Noticed that too ... several hours ago.
@MohamedAdel Not really my area of competence, I am afraid.
MathJax stopped working again. It works fine on other sites such as math.se and cstheory.se. I tried several different browsers and operating systems.
