@RebeccaChernoff I distinctly recall one of the Founding Fathers of SE say that there was no reason to make a new SE OpenID.
 
Just cycle between Joel and the Puppies.
 
Question: any new live SE sites soon? ( @JeffAtwood )
 
Joel could sit with the puppies
 
@JeffAtwood domurtag asked: can Joel explain wh he doesn't think that great programmers are not to be found developing internal company apps?
 
@Moshe Er. You already do, you get the 100 bonus
 
9:00 PM
Get @Jeff to look at the right hand column
 
I guess they're not going to see that anyway @jcolebrand
 
@MichaelMrozek Well, some things, like vote ratio and stuff is annoying.
 
@jcolebrand Jeff has been trained through months of tavern use to completely ignore the right-hand column
 
JEFF IN A PUPPY SUIT
 
Look, I'm a member for over a year, why the need for some of these restrictions?
 
9:01 PM
@MichaelMrozek hence we need good mods to help out ;)
 
the Chaos question wasn't on topic?
 
Joel likes Fawlty Towers - I'm impressed.
 
Ich sprache kein Deutsch!
 
The majority of text is non English.
 
Oh, I didn't know japanese.SE started. Neat
 
9:02 PM
It's when you sit on a site like ustream, and on a chat like this at the same time you fully realize how superior chat.se is to other live chat systems
 
English.SE is for people who speak English learning English? :)
 
@Moshe -1 kein Deutsch
 
Yea, I took a peek, too much German going on there.
 
@JeffAtwood That doesn't help when your question is closed as dupe of another that's written in X and has an answer in X (which is currently the plan)
 
@splattne you sure?
 
9:02 PM

Q: If the same question is asked in German and English is it a duplicate?

Twelve47If two effectively identical questions are asked but one in English and one in German, how do we handle these. Are they two completely different questions? Should one be closed as an exact duplicate?

 
Jin
@AnnaLear your rite
 
English.SE is actually my second fav Stack Exchange, next to SO
 
@CRoss which one? We might have had cleanup collisions
 
@Moshe yep
 
@balpha You speak German? What else have you been hiding?
 
9:03 PM
 
@jzy YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL IN A TUBE TOP!
 
@JeffAtwood Why does GameDev get its own site? Shouldn't there be a site for other genre's then?
 
Wenn ist das Nunstück git und Slotermeyer?
 
:)
 
If there ever were a Russian.SE, I'd be all over that.
 
9:04 PM
You could use the google translate api... oh wait
 
@kersny lol
 
> Ich habe sauerkraut in meinen lederhosen
Another quality German quote
 
German is public beta right now @JeffAtwood
 
Thanks @JeffAtwood
 
Jin
Chinese.se proposal is losing :(
 
9:05 PM
@LasseVKarlsen lolz
 
@Jin I have a new follower on Twitter, welcome!
 
Jin
@jjnguy you mean a new stalker
 
@Moshe You know where it is from I hope?
 
@Jin, I crave attention, so I'm ok with that :)
 
Question, how challenging has it been to work remotely with so many people in a main office? What tools have helped with this? (distributed version control, etc)?
 
9:06 PM
@LasseVKarlsen I forgot, I used to know.
 
area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/16613/… ← if your language isn't sexy enough
 
Top Secret, old, timeless, movie with Val Kilmer
 
I have to go work for a few minutes; tell them to pause the podcast
 
Starrers - help the hosts find the questions that haven't been covered yet. Please don't star every little post.
 
I would think "personal productivity" screams "content farm."
 
9:07 PM
@MichaelMrozek sure, just for you.
 
@MichaelMrozek Time for another puppy break.
 
8 mins ago, by C. Ross
@JeffAtwood how will you prioritize who gets CHAOS help?
 
Now that @MichaelMrozek is gone, do we get our free cars for tuning in?
 
@JeffAtwood - I've made some connections through SE, let's be realistic. Social isn't all too bad. It can help productivity.
 
@CRoss Yeah, I reacked that one on the list. Waiting on them to get back to it.
 
9:08 PM
Example:
Problems that are not necessarily easy to answer in SE format.
 
way to go boardgames!
 
@CRoss ditto
@JeffAtwood - Where will this library be? East/West coast? Europe?
 
Camera lending library - I wish I was in the States now
 
I want to know how that will work.
 
@Jin woohoo! Good work.
 
9:11 PM
\o/ @Jin (:
 
Puppies frolicking in slow motion. Puppies wagging their tails in slow motion. Puppies panting in slow motion. The possibilities are endless.
 
Jin
I'm efamous, good things will happen to me yus?
 
Puppies making movies about puppies?
 
@Jin maybe more bacons?
 
That or you'll be kidnapped.
 
9:12 PM
what is up with this SOUND?
 
@Jin - nice photo!
 
No obvious thing. Like. Apple.SE :(.
 
Great photo!
 
Building community is hard, let's go shopping! ;)
 
9:13 PM
@JeffAtwood you should send the people at German and Japanese some etymological dictionaries - they're around 20-60€
 
@VxJasonxV I don't know, they could give iPads or some stuff to high rep users. Just saying.
 
Shopping is hard, let's go ask on Super User!
 
Photo of the year:
 
(we've had this already, yeah.)
 
@KyleCronin I agree entirely! :)
 
9:13 PM
@JeffAtwood - How long is normal for an A51proposal to wait for beta? Judaism.SE and German.SE took quite a long time.
 
@JeffAtwood @RobertCartaino @AlexMiller FWIW, my SE-sponsored trip to RallyON conference went pretty well.
 
Meh, out of time.
Keep one chat room only though.
 
Any plan on having key community members as guests in the future?
 
Jin
@splattne that photo will haunt me for the rest of my interweb life..
 
I'm totally committing to the Travel SE so I can get free trips from Chaos
 
9:14 PM
@JonathanSampson that's what Shirlock Homes was supposed to be on this show :(
 
I agree with @Moshe, one chat room at a time.
 
lol
 
@AnnaLear Cool. Great to hear. You should definitely post a follow-up about your experiences.
 
Hi @Spolsky's Dad!
 
9:15 PM
@JeffAtwood Ah; well the direction is good at least. Perhaps next time.
 
lol I thought "shirlock" was a typo
 
bye
 
@JeffAtwood I will leave those pinned so they can get responded to, if anyone would care ...
 
Bye!!!!
 
9:15 PM
bye
 
@RobertCartaino Where would be a good place for that? I made a short blog post on my blog, but that's about it.
 
nice
 
more links
 
Thanks @JeffAtwood good podcast. Also big props to the team!

Q: The problem with extrinsic motivation

Jon EricsonAs a preface, I've stopped using Stack Overflow after participating in the beta and using the system for a while. I'm not trying to stir up controversy or ruffle feathers, though that seems likely to happen. Rather this is a postmortem of one user's experience with Stack Overflow. I've always ...

 
9:15 PM
@jcolebrand ditto
 
That was abrupt
 
Thanks for doing this live, guys. Love the interaction...and puppies.
 
@JonathanSampson interaction, yes, puppies, not so much
 
@JeffAtwood Man, that article was such a pile of crap.
 
9:16 PM
@Brant Haha.
No idea what that was a reference to, but in my empty office building I LOL'd.
 
(fixed)
 
Nice to catch the tail-end of the podcast today, been working furious to meet one of those "Here's a new project, can we have it done by 5pm?" requests from the top-down. Great to relax for a few minutes. Back to work - take care, all.
 
trying to bookmark the chat, but I'm getting an error that I can't include more than 400 messages
 
blames @balpha
 
You guys just talked too much
 
9:26 PM
@AnnaLear Perhaps on your meta. Feel free to start a new post or you can reply to the call for attendees to the conference. Although, I think a separate post would be more effective.
 
@RobertCartaino Hmm, okay. I'll see about putting something together. :)
 
Thanks. That would be great.
 
@KyleCronin I imagine that just having a link to this room and the starting message would be good enough ;)
 
@jcolebrand I imagine so, I just thought it might be nice to have it in the "bookmarks" section of the room as well, especially if this room is going to be reused for future shows
 
@KyleCronin we should just handle that with a discrete message, like this one:
THE END OF THE PODCAST ACCOMPANYING CHATSCRIPT FOR MAY 31 2011
 
9:33 PM
@jcolebrand I guess that could work too
 
@KyleCronin ;)
 
10:05 PM
@jcolebrand I think you might be confused about the definition of "transcript"
