@Magisch If he gets elected moderator, you can bet your life that the SO mods - and the rest of the SE mods, if he turns up in TL - will give him a swift reality check
I'm biased in that I'm also a candidate, but his answers to the comments don't lead me to believe he'll do anything but reopen questions en masse and force people to be much nicer to new people.
Personally, I'd feel obligated to give him a fresh start... but as soon as (and if) he starts generating complaints over this kind of stuff, I won't be happy
Yeah, that. When Rand al'Thor was elected on SciFi... to put it lightly, he was not held in high regard by most of the rest of SE mods. Fresh start was granted mandated by the CM's, and now at least a majority of people recognize that he's actually a pretty good mod.
Would the mod team be OK with a chatroom stalking an unusually active mod and reversing their closures/reopenings (after giving them a case-by-case though)?
Die Kölner Beiträge zur Sprachdidaktik (1/2005) beschreiben Studien aus dem Jahr 1989, ich zitiere eine Zusammenfassung und die Ergebnisse (Hervorhebungen von mir - schien mir sinnvoller, als ganz viel auszulassen). Englische Leser werden hier nicht erwähnt; ich kann mir aber gut vorstellen, dass...
(TL;DR for that link: A study found that the German capitalisation paradigm applied to Dutch makes Dutch texts easier to read for Dutch native speakers.)
@undo over the period you have ran Smokey on your Pi, did you ever have to replace the sd card? Because on the 'Net it is written that the sd card on the pi gets worn out pretty easily
@Magisch Well, mostly it’s that you capitalise every noun and everything that behaves like one (except pronouns). I would guess that by sticking to that rule you would only make a mistake once every thousand words or so.
Dearest creature in creation, Study English pronunciation. I will teach you in my verse Sounds like corpse, corps, horse, and worse. I will keep you, Suzy, busy, Make your head with heat grow dizzy. Tear in eye, your dress will tear. So shall I! Oh hear my prayer. Just compare heart, beard, and heard, Dies and diet, lord and word, Sword and sward, retain and Britain. (Mind the latter, how it’s written.) Now I surely will not plague you With such words as plaque and ague. But be careful how you speak:
@dorukayhan You are not a privileged user. Please see the privileges wiki page for information on what privileges are and what is expected of privileged users.
With ECC you can correct the 1 bit errors of Cosmic Rays. In order to avoid the 10% of cases where cosmic rays result in 2-bit-errors the ECC cells are typically interleaved over chips so no two cells are next to each other. A cosmic ray event which affects two cells will therefore result in two ...
Apparently, not insignificant. From this New Scientist article, a quote from an Intel patent application:
"Cosmic ray induced computer crashes have occurred and are expected to increase with frequency as devices (for example, transistors) decrease in size in chips. This problem is projected t...
Conclusion: The rate gets worse but we can fix the errors :)
Excuse me that I don't find being behind someone who had less moderation activity in his entire time here then most of us in any given week very exhilarating
@DrMcMoylex probably the host switch - notifications don't get carried across hosts automatically, so when I took over running Smokey, all notifications were lost.
@Magisch Remember, primary results don't guarantee a position. It does show how much support there is, but users still have to win the actual election.
Candidates #1 or #2 in Primary have always won (7/7) #3 won 6/7 times (the only exception is OMGPonies in election 2) ##4-6 won 3/7 times #7 won 2/7 times #9 won 1/7 times, that was Jeremy Banks
@Undo, in your live chart, is it possible to zoom in on a specific time range by click/dragging? (like in this example). I don't know what library you are using.
I ask, because I'd like to zoom in on a couple of the closer races, but when it's showing me the entire primary period, the end is hard to see when the races are really close
@NobodyNada I'm not sure. One of the main problems of the Hot Network Questions is that everyone and your mother can upvote them, but not downvote them.
