6:00 PM
@Jin blocked at work, so will have to look later. But is that the gallery of site logos that Joel (I think) tweeted a few weeks back? That was cool.
 
Jin
yeah
 
@Jin Guess that's promising for us officially graduating :D
Just not going to be 20k rep at that point. :( sad
 
Jin
@enderland I ordered as soon as it was apparent the community liked Stephane's design. the art canvas takes a while to make so i just went ahead before site launched
 
@enderland Did you not get issued a cap and gown? ... what ohhh? really? missing credits yeah... skipped a final wow thats not good... well there is always next year for you enderalnd
Dont tell Shog9 but I plan to streak the stage during his speech!
 
6:17 PM
@Chad don't tell Shog? You really think you can keep anything from Shog? :-)
 
we want this? stackprinter.com/… seems a good question to have but then throw a "historical lock" or something on
 
@enderland seems like a poll question that would act as a broken window...
 
 
2 hours later…
Jin
8:04 PM
almost time!
 
@Jin Awesome!
 
JIN IS MOVING FILES RIGHT NOW
BRACE YOURSELVES
 
Jin
8:17 PM
 
8:50 PM
sorry for the delay, we haven't graduated a site in a while; the graduation process needs to be updated first
 
pictures @balpha scraping rust off of stuck gears
 
I'm not actually doing anything, it's all Geoff. I'm just armchairing it.
 
9:04 PM
Shouldnt Shog9 be giving his speech now?
 
@Jin It works :)
 
we are the tiny paperclip site :)
 
Jin
i'm checking for bugs.. oh btw, the workplace art piece came to our office today

I need one of those for my cube :p
 
Jin
also, refresh this chat. thanks @balpha!
 
@Jin Regarding some bugs, the flag counter is missing its highlighting.
And check the /help/privileges page, some text is wrapping below the reputation.
 
Jin
ok checking.
 
@Jin Also, I just noticed the community bulletin doesn't quite stand out. Just an FYI.
The overall look is awesome!
It's not the same looking at screenshots as it is the real thing. :)
I might just have to get used to the community bulletin. Sometimes when you're used to seeing one thing and it changes, you don't see it the same as a new user would.
 
Jin
9:14 PM
yeah! ok i fixed that privileges bug. will make another build soon
 
@jmort253 I like that the flag indicator is not obnoxious
 
@Chad But I thought there were no flags. lol
I'm used to that thing blaring at me and calling out to me.
 
I need to get to work to get my delete rights back

Congrats, All - it took a lot of work to get this far, and I for one never thought you had it in you.

I never believed in The Workplace. Not for one minute. But you all proved me wrong.
 
woooo hoooo!!!!! O-O-O-O!!! Just as been promised
 
9:17 PM
Kudos.
 
Sweet, this is great!
 
@Jin, @balpha, @Geoff, thanks for working hard to get this out! :)
2
and a big thanks to @Stéphane for conceptualizing this look and feel!

Jin
@jmort253 hey thanks for being a great community!
 
@Shog9 The best ideas are sometimes the most controversial. Thanks for all your help and guidance in getting us to this point. :)

let's test how it one-boxes...

Q: Salary on unusual job name

AjaxkeviSay you are getting hired and recieved an offer of 'X' for title 'A'. You want some thinking time and are doing some research on for example glassdoors. Title A is not known on the internet and there are no similar job titles as you are going to do something completely new for a company. How to ...

 
Jin
9:21 PM
@Shog9 not that hard to prove you wrong really.:)
2
 
all right, works fine
bye bye beta privileges, welcome flagging
 
@Jin woo! BTW, the site name/logo in the bottom right corner of chat still says "beta". Presumably caching. Also, the "beta" is almost the same color as the new background color, so you probably won't notice this unless you modify browser colors like I do.
 
Jin
I'll be doing another multiple rounds of styling/bug checks on the live site(both main and meta).
@MonicaCellio I think it's cached. @balpha? i see cdn.sstatic.net/workplace/img/logo.png
 
@Chad Me too.
 
@Shog9 heheheh :) For some reason that feels like pretty damn good praise, not going to lie
 
9:28 PM
The new design looks great! Bye bye trusted user; time to find some questions to answer to get it back. :-)
 
woo graduated
 
wooooooooooooo
O-o
woah :O
That's a damm fine design
 
@MonicaCellio yeah, a lot of people have a lot of work to do to get things back to normal!
 
I'm commander Shepard and this is the best site in the whole damm citadel!
Congratz everyone
 
CMW
Awesome. Who's got the champagne?
 
9:33 PM
Wow, I don't think I've seen three rows in the "in room" list before.
 
Here is two. :z cause some avatar are blocked
 
@MonicaCellio three? still one for me
 
@HugoRocha imgur is blocked for me too, but they come out as alt text instead.
 
Funny, for me most of them come as broken images... '-'
 
@RhysW heh, ok -- I thought that right-column width was hard-wired, but I guess not.
 
9:35 PM
so, what category do we fit under in the footer for sites?
 
All i've got to say is this has been ONE heck of a ride the past nearly two years and it's sure nice to know this site is now officially part of the SE network for real :-)
 
Jin
did you guys refresh this chatroom? its theme got updated too.
 
next move: mod elections. I've got a question for our questionnaire ready to go:
-16
A: 2014 SO Moderator Election Q&A - Question Collection

gnatWhat is the Goal of “Hot Network Questions”? what the heck we are actually trying to achieve... The list of questions from a variety of sites is in a great location screen-wise, it is readily accessible and does get a lot of eyes on it. But as with any marketing, the goal isn't just to g...

 
CMW
Even the mobile version is updated
 
9:42 PM
@gnat good question
 
Guys, going now! Again, congratz to everyone! /cheers
 
Jin
btw, check out workplace's 404, captcha, and error page images.

@Jin i love the 404 one with the red stapler
 
@Shog9 Dammit I missed the speech... I was supposed to streak then!
 
slacker!
 
9:47 PM
Best motivational speech i've seen all day
@Chad have you tp'd his house yet?
 
@RhysW That was not me... I do not know anything about it
 
bahaha :P
 
It wasnt Jin Either
Wow 90 rep today on old questions...
@Jin One thing... it still says The Workplace Beta
 
Jin
@Chad the logo is cached. i forgot to add cache breaker css code in there
the cache breaker code will be on live after the next production build.

Q: What companies program airplanes?

camel-manI am wondering what companies program systems on airplanes. I am a software engineer and I would love to work with planes in some way. I am not sure if that would be more of an electrical engineering position or not, what are your thoughts?

close bait..
@Jin does the little icon for chat change too? even in incognito mode it looks like the same little TW symbol :)
/me nitpicks
 
@enderland caching
 
@Shog9 doesn't incognito not have a cache?
 
Jin
@enderland it's changed already, but favicon normally are cached very hard by browsers, especially chrome
 
@Jin ahhh. I didn't realize incognito cached those too
 
@enderland here's what it'll look like eventually: cdn.sstatic.net/workplace/img/apple-touch-icon.png?blahblahblah
 
Jin
10:18 PM
@enderland go to sstatic.net/workplace/img/favicon.ico and hard refresh
 
I trust you I guess :D
 
@Jin tried, failed :(
 
Jin
actually it's not updating for me either. but typically after a while it should show the correct one
 
I guess i'm confused since the chat one hasn't refreshed
but the main site did
 
10:19 PM
@enderland chat one is apple touch

Q: Finding Investors

Jack TrowbridgeWhere do you actually find investors you can email and talk about businesses and your ideas/business. The type of business is related to social networking and the next big thing. With good ideas you need to know people but is there a way to find these connections?

is this.... on topic?
 
Jin
yeah we can favicon caching issues every time we launch a site.
 
chrome can be a nightmare with caching depending on where the references to the images are 'mentioned'
 
Jin
we also recently redid our favicon.ico too. it's actually both a 16x16 and 32x32 combined into one, for retina support
speaking of which.. did you know workplace.se is our first fully retina supported site?
 
I wonder if there in an SE app that allows ease of use from mobile devices
 
Jin
10:21 PM
Stéphane created retina version for all the graphics on the site. (you can see it if you're on a macbook with retina display)
or ipad
 
right, as much as im enjoying being graduated, i need some sleep before i no longer have a workplace to go to
catch you all tomorrow!
 
Jin
@RhysW gn!
