Hello. I got in to see what this was about. Didn't know the chat kept me connected even when I closed the tab. Does it do it if I click on the leave hyperlink? haha sorry for the noobness.

@JackozeeHakkiuz Nope, when you click on leave, you actually "leave". I'm usually in the room by default (even when I'm not really in the room), because I forget to actually "leave" :-)

Ok thanks! I'll stop with the off-topic. :)

Hi @amWhy. I forget that I'm visible in chat rooms, even when I'm not chatting!

@TheoBendit Well, if it's been a while since you've appeared, or chatted, you become "semi-invisible" :-)

Wow, I just have no idea how this works. :-)

What I mean by "semi-invisible" is this: you see your identicon, and mine, on the right side, roughly in the middle? Compare the brightness of ours compared to the other two faded identicons.

@amWhy Oi... sorry. The correct link is this one

I don't have the energy to type up the image.

So I left a comment indicating that the original asker should put in some effort.

For deletion?

This question lacks context---why would you even begin to suspect that the sequence is always prime or semi-prime?

I have noticed that there are a lot of questions that pop up with spaces before punctuation (for example, this question, before I edited it). Any ideas why this seems to happen? Do people just not know how punctuation works?

@JohnMa is singularly responsible for my running out of delete votes in the end of many days on MSE! :-)

Another needless edit from the serial-trivial-suggested-editor: math.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/1040405

@amWhy I think one can ping only editors, not suggesters when the suggestion is rejected.

@DanielFischer Argh! So the only message one can receive is via the canned reasons, and that's only if the edit is in fact, ultimately rejected? Methinks it's time for a meta post, complaining about such trivial edits, with links to examples. Afterall, meta is largely one sided recently.

I know I commented on two of their (specific user I mentioned above), on edits that were "inappropriately" accepted. (Oh, and it would be good on meta to post links to those, to perhaps shame the accepters.) So they became, in fact, the "editor" on those two posts.

@amWhy You can comment on posts where a suggestion was approved, or on a post authored by the user in question. As long as such workarounds aren't overdone, such slight abuse of the comment system is tolerated.

I've posted three comments in all. I don't plan on doing so often. My main purpose was to inform them. But if they choose not to accept suggestions, which they have thus far ignored, then I don't plan to utter words that fall on deaf ears, and all the more reason for me to believe that a good number of their suggested edits are made, not so as to improve a question/site, but for personal gain.

Needs more close votes

I'm not sure that there is anything here worth salvaging---it essentially comes down to not reading very carefully.

@amWhy No internet the whole of yesterday and much of today. Just got to voting on the other two. Thanks! =)

@user21820 Oh no! ... No problems! We all should be forced to deal with unexpected disruptions from "connectivity" for a day or two, once in a while. Sorry if I sounded impatient. I wan't feeling impatient!

@XanderHenderson Actually, it is a good question if you don't make the oft made assumption that probability has real world meaning. (The only way I know of is rather intricate and not at all trivial.) Then the answer would be that yes if you set aside the J heart then the conditional probability of getting it would be zero.

@amWhy No worries. I am here so regularly that it makes sense to ask when I disappear for too long hahaha..

@user21820 heh! Yeah, here too. =)

@TheoBendit I believe what happens is that when you have a tab for some chat-room then it automatically refreshes every so often, so if you are logged into SE (via a cookie or something) then all the chat-room tabs automatically see that cookie when they refresh, hence making you appear in the room even if you didn't actually navigate to that tab!

I guess I'm too tired to read more haha..

@amWhy: Going off soon after I check out the other rooms. See you! =)

@user21820 Although, when one does not leave a room, even if they may close the tab they had opened for a chat, if someone comments in that room that they haven't left, they'll be pinged, or notified in another chatroom. (At least for a period of time, the length of which, I don't know.)

Oops, don't want to tire you out even more!!

@amWhy Supposedly, they can be pinged iff their username shows up when you type @...

And should be iff they have visited the chat-room (even if not posting anything) in the past 2 weeks.

@user21820 Yes, and two weeks sounds about right.

But if you reply to an earlier message of theirs then I think they get pinged no matter what.

Yes indeed!

Btw, have you, @user21820 noticed who is no longer in our midst? Also, @Did, you want to participate in CRUDE more actively again, given our nemesis is no longer present in our room?

@amWhy I don't mind if he wants to silently act on stuff he sees here, since there are also others who silently act contrary for a large fraction of stuff we propose to act on.

@user21820 Dat true. But it would be hard for them to see what's here, without being in the room, no? But then again, who knows?

Hi, @ChristianBlatter !

@amWhy @user21820 Of course, it is possible to read the transcripts without actually being in the room.

@XanderHenderson Yup, I've since remembered that fact, though I haven't seen any external interference in CRUDE. I.e., there has been no reason for them to interfere. So I don't think there's much to worry about right now.

indeed

Not clear why this post received 3 upvotes, and no downvotes until just now? It needs only one more vote to close.

Another PSQ.

@JohnMa Any thoughts on running for a moderator position? I think you have a lot of attributes, and dedication to the site, that I hope you'll consider running?
