Spring Cleaning

I wanted to wear shorts and sandals to work and you can do that in theory.

@GaurangTandon I have no words, but I guess you see what I mean... It is one of the more common replies: Why do you need to know how I failed? Why can't you just help me? Why don't you just give me the solution?

@GaurangTandon It actually does not really matter. If the placeholder is present in the post, there is an issue. It is not friendly to people with viewing disabilities, it is also terrible for indexation.

@GaurangTandon the tag is supposed to disappear completely. Any question that carries it should be reevaluated, then all posts contained improved (closed or not) or deleted. Unfortunately closed questions have to be cleaned up manually sometimes.

There are currently 694 homework questions, score < 1, answers > 1. We will never get rif of that tag :/

For those who joined from the periodic table, here is how it works: I'll post a question that won't be automatically removed because of various reasons. I'll also briefly outline why I think we should get rid of it. Please reply to the message whether you want to keep it (and how to salvage it) or if it is okay to delete it. Thank you very much for your participation.

Anyone know a good software for drawing MO diagrams (i.e. interaction diagrams, like the ones that appear in textbooks)?

oops I woke up and to my horror I saw a question tagged with homework...

@orthocresol So, perhaps we add "Yes, let's use this approach going forward" and "No, let's not use this approach going forward" answers to the question, edit the question with some bold THIS QUESTION IS NOW AN OFFICIAL POLL PER ITS OWN PROPOSAL language, and see what happens?

How about reaction?

But I am going to stop using the closehammer on HW, make the community work for it...

For every meta proposal, make an explicit poll, an explicit time for which the poll lasts, and an explicit warning that the post with most upvotes will become policy. There's far too much inaction on meta.

soon$^*\\{\Tiny ^*\textit{"soon" is not to be construed as indicating that action will actually be taken in any particular near-term timeframe}}$

peace will certainly be achieved after the OP feeds his/her tubli + jatropha concoction to the world population

I'm a simple man, I see a Q/A probably about drugs, I upvote.

Weinhold gets pretty quantitative about it in Discovering Chemistry, and Valency & Bonding is (or at least gives the appearance of being) extremely rigorous.

@pentavalentcarbon i have an odd sense of humour

@DownChristopher What is it with you PPCG people always choosing a downvote-related avatar? O.O

@M.A.R. Welcome to the Martrix.

the reason why we coordinated TRE is so that we don't flood front page all day round.

Everything's fine, until it's suddenly not

I'm editing the edits. I'm going meta on meta.

@hBy2Py I noticed you used \bbox. That's grounds for suspension here.
