As to the moderator election, which one of the current moderators is stepping down? Or are we adding a 5th moderator?
@m_goldberg Not sure anyone needs to step down. We can elect additional ones as well and I believe this is good. Being a moderator is quite exhaustive and my subjective feeling is that MrWiz, RM and JM (for obvious reasons) cannot not be as active as they used to be.
So we are adding a 5th moderator. @Kuba: do you feel that you need another moderator to help you?

So the election started yesterday with no candidates. How does it proceed under that condition?
OK, I see the actual election doesn't start until June 6th. I not sure what stated yesterday.
@m_goldberg yes. About election, this week is for candidates to step up.

Was there a way to get rid of such artifacts (visible only if you rotate the plot at specific angles) ? https://i.sstatic.net/KkzqY.png . This guy being produced by Graphics3D[
GeometricTransformation[{GrayLevel[.25], Specularity[White, 10],
Sphere[]}, AffineTransform[{{1, 1, 1}, {0, -1, 1}, {0, 0, 0}}]],
Boxed -> True, Lighting -> "Neutral",
Method -> {"SpherePoints" -> 10^3}]

@Sektor make it 'less flat': {{1, 1, 1}, {0, -1, 1}, {0, 0, 1*^-7}}
@Sektor p.s. I know you like flagging etc, have you noticed elections? :p
@Kuba Damn, that's sneaky, but lovely!
@Kuba I have and for years I have been contemplating submitting my CV ^o^, sadly I will be a TA next semester. I think I will be juggling too many balls at once :D
Understood, next time then :)
What is the distribution of time spent administering I wonder?
And have a nice time TA-ing.
Oh, it is up to the admin. And fellow admins.
I can't tell because I'm here anyway :)
Yeah, of course, but If I do something am trying to do it as best as I can ^^

I like to close rtfm and duplicate topics, J.M. does a great job editing/polishing stuff, R.M. writes nice ban's warrants. MrW does everything.
So if there is a nice distribution of duties you don't feel it.
Last 4 years I've transitioned to a workplace that doesn't require vast intellectual power, so Mathematica has fallen out of favour and my knowledge withered.
It does, indeed, look like a well oiled machine
Admins are not meant to judge correctness of the answer anyway.
They don't, but If I allocate time to M.SE then I will try to produce good content also ^^;
We have a few days left still
I will sleep on it :D :D
Sure, no pressure. Probably you are too tough anyway :p as long the only one with marshal badge.
(^^) Daang ^^ I stopped doing those long ago, but thank you!
