Hi @Martin

Martin

@beginner Wassup?

beginner

hehe

I'm just getting on with our group

Just a curiosity, now I'm fully informed, can I still post?

Martin

Of course, there should not be any problem.

beginner

:)

Martin

I just thought I get you in the loop...

there are a lot of "rules" or best practises that one learns about over the course of time

I don't know them all, so I pick em up along the way...

also chemistry is still quite young and needs some developement

Anyway, to clarify a bit: You can get help from both sites, just not with the same question at the same time.

A question can be migrated within the first 30 days, it can always be deleted and then asked on another page.

Lucas Kauffman

there was a flag in here :O

who's being naughty?

santiago

when?

Martin

6:46 AM

@LucasKauffman I just flagged on the transcript, ADG was calling somone mad

And with the recent track record, I believe that was the way to go...

@santiago nice to have you back, good to hear that the surgery went well

@MARamezani Can't find the tag, but I am happy that this is not a thing

santiago

@Martin yup, but I will be off walking for a while

Lucas Kauffman

@Martin I see

Martin

@santiago Enjoy! Just be careful ;)

santiago

so, ADG called some one mad - he called me a spammer earlier...

Lucas Kauffman

Who's running this joint? Just get him a 2 day ban or so if he's too annoying and breaking rules

Martin

7:00 AM

I know, I think he called you mad, but i don't quite remember...

Lucas Kauffman

that's what moderators are for

Martin

Do you mean who is the owner of the room?

santiago

@Martin calling me mad? lol

Martin

@Lucas the original person who created the thing is out, now @MARamezani has been given the privilege

@lucas Or are you talking about the mods of the se page?

Lucas Kauffman

@Martin yea

just get his account banned network wide for two days or so

Martin

7:03 AM

that would be @jonsca @ManishEarth and @F'x

i assume

Okay I think I get it

santiago

hmmm I'll just flag him if he persists with the name calling

Martin

We'll just wait and see how it develops

santiago

absolutely, if he just chats and joins in the banter, there is no problem

He @Martin, after all this surgery, I am going to have some sexy scars!

Martin

7:18 AM

@santiago haha, making the best out of it I guess ;)

santiago

yup, I can almost make out some shapes

Lucas Kauffman

What did you get operated?

if I can be so nosy :p

santiago

you can be nosy :)

My ankle and calf (I was in a car accident a little while ago) - recovery is slow

Lucas Kauffman

ouch

santiago

I have the pleasure of damage all over my legs, hip, lower spine, head...etc

but, I am not too worried, will be back on m feet (pun intended) in no time - and I have sexy scars!

Lucas Kauffman

7:33 AM

ladies love sexy scars

santiago

exactly!

Mixcels

Hello

@LucasKauffman Are you a mod?

santiago

hi @Mixcels!

Mixcels

@santiago Did you vote on SO?

santiago

yes, I got there in the end!

Mixcels

7:37 AM

So you voted in primary or elections or both? @santiago

santiago

the election - and got a shiny silver and bronze

Mixcels

Cool

And get better from that surgery soon!! @santiago

santiago

thank you! I am thinking of building a rocket propelled jet scooter... but that could end in calamity

Mixcels

rocket , jet and scooter. 3 vehicles? :)

santiago

all merged into a vehicular frankenstein's monster

Lucas Kauffman

7:47 AM

@Mixcels nope, just have enough rep to see flags :)

@santiago You getting hurt and then coming up with these ideas, mmmm

santiago

@LucasKauffman true, my doctor gave me a very concerned look when I suggested it to him

Gowtham

i think the user who was flagged is a bit young and immature. and his language barrier is probably enraging him to post rude comments IMHO.

Mixcels

@LucasKauffman I see. Scrolling up tells me that even @Richard came in here... but he is a mod.

Lucas Kauffman

@Gowtham yea indeed

@Gowtham as long as he's willing to change his behavior :)

Gowtham

@LucasKauffman hope the same

santiago

8:01 AM

@Gowtham likewise

Gowtham

@santiago hey regarding your spectrometry Q of triple point, i cant give a complete answer. but i think you cant get a unique IR spectrum data.

the point is a dynamic equilibrium between the three states/phases. So it is not a state by itself.

santiago

that sounds like a good answer in itself!

Gowtham

8:20 AM

@santiago if you want to know more about this field you can start with Phase Diagrams :)

santiago

8:47 AM

awesome! Thank you for that!

MARamezani

11:41 AM

Hullo world!

Not expecting to call anybody, but chat log's gone crazy! Need some reading...

@ron My religion teaches me to bow down to anyone I've learned a mere word from.

@Martin Whaddya think? I just nuked it from the orbit.

@ADG Maybe because, I'm not interested in the exams in India?

@Martin We're all mad...

@Martin Jonsca's been cleaning the offensive messes he makes for some days now (In two to four of which, I was involved too) I'm amazed that he's not banned.

@santiago Corrosion scars?

@LucasKauffman Hmm, trusted users get to see flagz? Ooooooooooooooooooooooooh!

@Gowtham Indeed. But silence is a pearl.

Gowtham

11:56 AM

@MARamezani ya , its just sad , growing up is kinda hard :<

MARamezani

@Gowtham Not if the name starts with M, and is followed by A, and then an R...

Gowtham

Marauder ? :D

MARamezani

MARcos.

MARtin.

MARyland.

Martin

Thou hast called me?!

@MARamezani Which question was it on?

MARamezani

@Martin The original question that caused the question about chem-fail, oh I mean, the expansion of...You get what I mean!

Martin

12:08 PM

Hi @Nic

Nicolau Saker Neto

Heya Martin

MARamezani

Hullo @Nicolau!

It rhymes

Nicolau Saker Neto

Hey MARamezani

Martin

I would not want to be a mod these days...

MARamezani

@Martin Me neither.

Lucas Kauffman

12:15 PM

@Martin It's okay tho, for a small site like this one

MARamezani

@LucasKauffman SMALL?!

Lucas Kauffman

@Martin I have pondered with joining elections, but I was a bit like meeeeeh

MARamezani

Sheesh. You're right.

@LucasKauffman All you get will be people swearing at you when they see your profile.

Martin

@LucasKauffman Well, yeah I guess, but still... it's responsibility... I am not sure I can take that...

Lucas Kauffman

@Martin why?

MARamezani

12:16 PM

@Martin I'm sure.

Martin

I don't like to make decisions all be myself for a community of people.

Lucas Kauffman

@Martin but you're German, it's in your blood!

jk jk

Martin

Haha... I guess I am not too typical...

MARamezani

@Martin Usually, you're a demonstration of the community.

Or at least, what it decides.

Martin

In fact I am fighting a big stereotype every day :)

MARamezani

12:18 PM

MO schemes have made you a big leader.

Martin

I show up late for work almost every day

Lucas Kauffman

@Martin I know, same here, everyone thinks I just drink beer and eat waffles all day <.<

@Martin That's not very punktlich of you :o

Martin

@Lucas, let me guess belgium?

Lucas Kauffman

I'm happy I've get a flexible job where there aren't any hours

@Martin yep

MARamezani

@LucasKauffman Waffles? WAFFLES? So that's why he left SE?

Martin

12:19 PM

@LucasKauffman Yes that's the reason I can do that

I love belgium waffles... I can't wait to get back there :D

Lucas Kauffman

also I'm completely shit at chemistry, the last time I had chemistry was 10 years ago :P

MARamezani

@LucasKauffman Me too.

But for me, it was 10 minutes ago.

Lucas Kauffman

I still remember something about calculating mol

that's about it

and putting stuff on fire

that too

MARamezani

Hehe.

Martin

@LucasKauffman Haha, everybody has her/his own field, if chem is not among it, then that's life...

Lucas Kauffman

12:21 PM

I liked it tho

Martin

Putting stuff on fire is the more exciting stuff we do...

MARamezani

Stats show that 98.452746% of the IT people only remember stoichiometry from school chem.

Lucas Kauffman

just didn't pursue science in high school and when I did in college, it was CS which doesn't come with chem

Martin

I am a theoretician... while I was studying people hid, when I went into a lab...

All thumbs for fingers...

MARamezani

BOOM

Martin

12:25 PM

boom whut?

ManishEarth

Hey @Martin, around?

Martin

Oh look, what a rare sight... Hi @Manish!

ManishEarth

MARamezani

@Martin You just entered the lab...

ManishEarth

I lurk, just to busy to talk :p

MARamezani

12:26 PM

@ManishEarth Hullo!

@Manish I thought about a complaint letter.

But then I said to myself: The guy's just a kid.

Give him a second chance.

ManishEarth

kay

MARamezani

Ya know, that gibberish that teachers give you when they don't feel like hitting you.

ManishEarth

lol

MARamezani

@Martin BTW, what should we really do about textbook-erratum?

Sometimes the answer to some questions can be answered in few lines and I suppose keeping future readers' view in mind and the thing asked in question I sometimes consider some of those answers as valid. But i am facing a problem recently, I need to present some examples: Q: Is the peroxide ...
