and no one knows who or what a jonsca is
it could be a guy named Jons in California or Canada for all everyone knows
 
Michael Rodriguez
Michael Rodriguez
Huh, this one person in the English language and Usage told me I had a interesting name
He said it should either have been Miguel Rodriguez, or Michael Rodericson.

I tried to meet @mien once, but some 50 year old lady showed up with an order of Belgian waffles, claiming to be from Belgium.

Evidently, the dating service thought I had asked for "That 'mean' woman"
Still, I figured beggars can't be choosers.
 
Josh Gitlin
Josh Gitlin
I'll bet @Mien makes a mean waffle!
@jonsca Especially not when you're hungry and someone is offering you waffles

Yes, while I have never sampled her baked goods, she has put up some pictures of things that she has made, and they must be good
and yes, I realize that mixing "sampling her baked goods" and "pictures" was asking for a double entendre, but so be it
 
Josh Gitlin
Josh Gitlin
I believe that was intentional :-)

It was better before I pressed enter, but I scrapped that version
in the interest of Google's indexing
Free cupcake recipes
There, I have sanitized it
Is my flour too old?
Martha Stewart's danishes
so now when Asscart googles her screen name, he'll just get recipes.
He knows I'm kidding anyway

@jonsca do you think what I'm saying is clear?
No, questions on the Physical Fitness site are not within the scope of Biology. Every Stack Exchange site has an expert audience. The expert audience for the FItness site is professional trainers and nutritionists. The questions there are about those disciplines. These are known, respected professions. Biology's expert audience is scientists studying the field of Biology. This "Mind" proposal has no expert audience. It is an overlap with the Cognitive Sciences site which is currently in beta. — Josh 2 mins ago
Not that the user will care anyway, but
 
jonsca
jonsca
Yes, and I was thinking of writing something similar a while back. Only things are typo on "FItness", and they don't really cover nutrition anymore, AFAIK
Yeah, I'm hoping that proposal just pops, fizzles, and dies
 
Josh Gitlin
Josh Gitlin
Bah! 5 minute window expired
@jonsca Deleted and re-posted, Thanks!
 
Ben Brocka
Ben Brocka
yeah they killed nutrition in the title

I often have a heavy shift key finger

"professional trainers, athletes, and trainers" did you want trainers twice?

@jonsca whew, made it in before th5 minute window
@BenBrocka So they did. I din't use that site, so...

If you want to correct Xenocide, too, be my guest. He called me a troll, so I was done with that shizzle
He's just a vestige of the earlier SO
(and his mother dresses him funny, but I didn't point that out)
 
Josh Gitlin
Josh Gitlin
@jonsca Done
 
jonsca
jonsca
Hehe Well, you didn't have to defend me, but thanks! :)
I just meant correct his misperceptions
 
Josh Gitlin
Josh Gitlin
Second comment added :-)

Now he'll know that Jeromy Josh and I are sock puppets.

First one was trying to get him to be civil :-)
 
jonsca
jonsca
I appreciate it
I had missed his connection to his 'code golf' statement in the answer, but I had no idea what he was saying with "power user", I guess Super User, but that has a far different scope than SO, no matter what the initial intentions were.
Anyway, I've got to get running, but we'll see if he comes back with anything
 
Ben Brocka
Ben Brocka
Hm, important to note that number of potential close voters (3k rep) is a factor in a site graduating
 
Josh Gitlin
Josh Gitlin
6:30 PM
Good to know
Our questions/day has dropped somewhat
 
Ben Brocka
Ben Brocka
Really? 1.6. Was .9 when I checked a while ago
 
Josh Gitlin
Josh Gitlin
It's up and down
We're inconsistent
But, SE staff has said that not every site can be as popular, so they may be a bit more lenient with niche sites like ours.

I'm surprised @jonsca isn't at 3k yet
goes to upvote all his answers

@BenBrocka 3k is not required for close votes on this site
probably true of all betas, no?
or does the rep requirement change to 3k upon graduation?
 
Ben Brocka
Ben Brocka
@Jeff It's about moving into graduation; if a site has too few 3k rep users it'll suddenly be unable to community moderate after graduation
 
Jeff
Jeff
ah
