Q: Stars and pins are retained when chat messages are moved!

In the chat system, stars and pins are retained when moved to another room. This is probably a bug. Here a picture: When a room owner pins a message, they can move it to another room, and they cannot unpin it. However when a starred message is moved to another room, the user can unstar it in t...

Ugh

ACuriousMind

@SirCumference Ancient bug, what bugs you about it now?

I can't recall we ever had a problem with that here, and it's easy enough to counter by the actual room owners

Sir Cumference

@ACuriousMind The fact SE doesn't care about the majority of bugs

@SirCumference Well, they have to prioritize and generally, chat is rather low priority on their list compared to Q&A functionality

@0celo7 what is your doubt

@Kenshin How does one get born with a crack and heroine addiction? What does it do?

How does a baby crave hard drugs?

Kenshin

this is because the mother used the drugs

and the baby has become dependent before birth

0celo7

That I understand

Kenshin

these druigs pass through the placenta

0celo7

But how does dependence manifest itself in infancy

Kenshin

what do you mean?

are you asking what are the signs and symptoms that a baby has?

@Kenshin I tried

Also I don't want illegal drugs in my search history 😳

@0celo7 ?!? why are you asking?

Hello

Kenshin

@0celo7 the symptoms are shown here: medlineplus.gov/ency/article/007313.htm

@SirCumference Why do you think that?

Did you just make up that opinion based on the fact that there are unfixed bugs in existence, so you decided that must mean the SE team doesn't care?

@Kenshin You should stick with the word "dependence" rather than "addiction". The former is a physiological state, the latter a psychological one. (You can remain addicted after you are dried out, after all.)

Good morning

Kenshin

5:17 AM

@dmckee I never used the word addiction?

anonymous

5:30 AM

@Kenshin He just asked you to stick to "dependence" I guess. Never claimed that you used "addiction"..

user123733

Can anybody help me in question number 4

According to me it should be option 3

Skyler

@user123733 ok, so how heavy is 1/6 the mass of carbon

user123733

2g of hydrogen

Skyler

ok, sure, thats actually for the mass of a mole of carbon but we had to get there anyways

lets call this new standard of mass the "gramme"

user123733

Ok

So it is 1 gramme

Oh no it should be option 4

Am I correct

Skyler

6:21 AM

that should be the correct answer unless ive read it wrong

still kind of a bad question

user123733

Btw i got it

Thanks

Skyler

Kenshin

@anonymous I guess, but it's odd he thought he needed to tell me. I'm insulted that he thinks I didn't know the difference :p

anonymous

@Kenshin Don't take it seriously. He sometimes does speak out of the blue :)!

@user123733 The answer is "remain unchanged". @Skyler Reason: If you take 1/6 then 1 amu will correspond to 2 amu. Therefore the number of particles will be Na/2 in one mole. When you multiply Na/2 × 2 amu (mass of 1 mole) you'll get Na × 1 amu only. So mass remains unchanged.

Skyler

technically its the same amount of matter,
to answer this question fully:
your unit of mass has decreased relatively by a factor of two
this describes the same amount of matter

@anonymous thats why im saying this question sucks

it can be interpretted in a few ways

because lets say you now are describing matter in terms of "gramme", to make those units correspond to the number of atoms atoms you'd need twice as many atoms. So that is another reasonable answer a student would give and the teacher couldnt fault the student.

user123733

6:37 AM

@anonymous for which atom you are talking about

anonymous

On transforming units the numerical value of mass might change but absolute value doesn't change. Yeah, the question is a bit faulty. I agree.

user123733

Yeah @anonymous on internet also there are different answers provided with different explanation

Skyler

a far better way to ask this question is to say something like the atoms weigh half or twice as much . A mole can be defined as its number or as a relationship between number and mass.

user123733

So we can say option 1) is correct

Skyler

technically number 1 is always true but a test may ding points off

its a REALLY stupid question

@JohnRennie ooh scary bits!

John Rennie

@DanielSank as in frak this up and the company stops working and everyone will be staring at me

There's a reason I'm doing this on a Sunday morning!

DanielSank

You mean "bollocks it up"?

John Rennie

But it is basically done. All the performance checks have completed successfully. Basically now I wait for Monday morning to find out what I didn't think of :-)

In every server room there is a glass panel on the wall with words Smash in case of emergency written above it.

@JohnRennie why aren't there many tall buildings in london

> Few skyscrapers were built in London before the late 20th century, owing to restrictions on building heights originally imposed by the London Building Act of 1894, which followed the construction of the 14-storey Queen Anne's Mansions.
Though restrictions have long since been eased, strict regulations remain to preserve protected views, especially those of St Paul's, the Tower of London and Palace of Westminster, as well as to comply with the requirements of the Civil Aviation Authority.

List of tallest buildings and structures in London

This list of the tallest buildings and structures in London ranks skyscrapers and towers in London by their height. Since 2010, the tallest structure in London has been The Shard, which was topped out at 309.6 metres (1,016 ft), making it the tallest habitable building in Europe at the time. The second tallest is One Canada Square in Canary Wharf, which rises 235 metres (771 ft) and was completed in 1991. The third tallest is the Heron Tower in the City of London financial district, which was topped out in 2010 and stands at a height of 230 metres (755 ft), including its spire. The Greater London...
