TBF SE has actually listened to the community at least once in the past few days in an important way

@cairdcoinheringaahing (CC this)

The vote buttons have changed on MM/child metas to something far more accessible, and I expect other sites may follow soon since the more general Q is still status-review

Ginger

progress, I guess

Thanks to my hacky userscript, the voting buttons on metas are invisible when I've pressed them

@bobble That was a purposeful change, you can't really sign a letter before it was published

You just sign it before it was made public :p

It's been a long time, isn't it.

I think of it as "support the strike to hopefully get SE to fix the situation soon". Of course there's collateral damage (on the striking moderators themselves too if things work out -- they plan to clean up the backlog later) but okay, up to you.

caird coinheringaahin g

10:58 AM

If you want to think of it this way: I can't handle the entire site's moderation load by myself. During the strike, mod actions on CGCC will decline, and less important flags will be left unhandled for a longer time than usual. But, there are some mod actions which, in my view, are necessary to continue but aren't "extreme" enough to warrant my fellow mods coming off strike to deal with them.
Believe me when I say that I've thought a lot about what I think is best for me to do here, and I've come to the conclusion that this is it

Especially considering a few bits of key information which, unfortunately, I cannot make public

Ginger

and so, it begins

@cairdcoinheringaahing I should've asked: what happens if SE flatly refuses the mods' demands?

caird coinheringaahin g

@Ginger On my side: I hand over my diamond

I'm not sure how other people will react, but I suspect in a similar fashion

Ginger

yikes

I'm not sure how effective that'll be tho?

since like Rydwolf said there are plenty of people who are ready to fill that role

although maybe there aren't, and he mispredicted

time will tell I guess

caird coinheringaahin g

@Ginger There might be, but that may change if SE refuses to discuss over the strike

Ginger

I was assuming that said people wouldn't really care about SE's policies ~~and just want ultimate power~~, but considering how the mod election process works those people are kinda unlikely to be elected

so yeah

caird coinheringaahin g

11:10 AM

And, to be frank, I'm not sure I'd want to continue moderating with users who would see SE's current actions, then see them refuse to discuss changes, and still want to moderate for them

Ginger

I sure hope that SE capitulates then, because the future for them sure looks bleak if they don't

I think I'm going to work on backing up the chat transcripts, just in case :p

noodle man

i have an unrelated question: i’m adding DOM manip to my language’s standard library—how would you want the API to be in an ideal world? i assume it’s different from how the API is for javascript but i’m not sure

sorry to interrupt your important conversation

Ginger

huh, mousetail's hosting the letter?

I also suspect that Smokey's going to shut down for good if they refuse

well, time to not vtc things

emanresu A

Technically, I've been on strike for most of the year

Bbrk24

11:26 AM

@noodleman Having used both UIKit and SwiftUI, I can say that I definitely prefer the latter, but that’s largely because of things like that UIKit forces MVC while SwiftUI doesn’t, and that UIKit is imperative while SwiftUI is declarative. If by DOM you mean hooking into an existing HTML page rather than constructing new pages from scratch, I’m not sure.

lyxal

@Ginger yet the 2020 election happened :p

It took two expression of interest rounds but it got there

And of course there were people who said "people shouldn't have nominated" yet people still nominated anyway

noodle man

11:45 AM

@Bbrk24 i did indeed mean the latter; the language transpires to javascript

but i’ll take a look at SwiftUI—i bet there’s something i can get from that

Ginger

you know it's serious when I remove the foka from my bio :b

I think this is actually the first time I've ever done that

@lyxal I'd say "that was before all this" but it wasn't really

"all this" was the straw that broke the back of the metaphorical camel

lyxal

That's what people said last time

although last time SE rolled some things back quicker

well not really quicker it still took a while

Ginger

12:00 PM

that's quite a pessimistic outlook

lyxal

I'm somewhat cynical of corporations actually ever changing :p

Ginger

although to be fair it's the most likely outcome

what I foresee happening is... nothing

most likely SE will do what they've done in the past and never provide a response

(well, they've kinda responded, but not directly to the requests in the strike)

lyxal

there's a meta answer I saw that perfectly summarises what I mean

lemme find it rq

I am writing this not just a reply to this specific post, so please consider the following in the bigger scheme of things that happened in the last years. Premise Let's just start with a simple premise. I no longer trust your words when you say that you didn't expect this, when you say you are sa...

And I doubt SE will actually fully roll-back the AI measures

copilot/codewhisperer/bard has already taken a good share of users from StackOverflow

to stay relevant, SE needs something to compete with the AI hype

(hype being the key word)

I suspect SE will be releasing copilot but SO trained soon

Ginger

if it were feasible for us to collectively pack our bags and move to Codidact, that's what I'd like to do

lyxal

or at least something like Copilot Chat

Ginger

12:04 PM

but it's not really

@lyxal oh, that's what this is really about isn't it

SE's panicking because they're losing users to AI

lyxal

First, the CEO of SE expressed interest in making API cost more for LLMs. Then, the CEO of SE rolled back on the AI policy. Sounds to me like SE is a) making sure SE data is only used for training SE AI, b) showing shareholders that AI is indeed the future and "hey see we told you it's the way of the future - the initial 'harsh' response was temporary see" and c) getting ready to make its own product

Ginger

and that's why they're like "AI is clearly good"

Ginger

I don't know what to do

lyxal

@Ginger devclass.com/2023/05/15/…

it's understandable that people are switching to AI tools for coding questions given there's still a reputation of SO being not beginner friendly

Ginger

and here I foolishly thought it couldn't possibly get worse!

lyxal

I'd rather have the AI word-salad me into a solution (even with its intolerable hyperpositivity) than have a bad experience with having my question downvoted, vtc'd, and mocked

Ginger

the way to solve that issue is not throwing your own AI at it!

right?

emanresu A

12:11 PM

But my buzzwords...

lyxal

@Ginger In the world of shareholders and corporate responsibility, the solution is doing what the cool kids are doing :p

Ginger

my post about the voting fix userstyle has 35 upvotes and 0 downvotes

lyxal

factor into the mix that staff have grown tired of dealing with meta and you've got yourself a community that doesn't like the company, and a company that wants to do things without the restriction of the community

another interesting read on the above message

Ginger

so what's their solution?

ignore the community?

lyxal

pay less attention to it apparently

also I know there's the whole less moderation thing, but this post really needs deleting

Ginger

12:17 PM

oh no they've figured out the strike

I wonder how long it'll stay up

lyxal

probably a good while

Ginger

wouldn't surprise me

it's already been almost 10 minutes

Seggan

12:34 PM

@lyxal that's kinda the whole point :P

anyway I need some TypeScript help

specifically, I'm trying to use a module that exports both a class and a namespace named QrScanner, and my typechecker's yelling at me about it

import QrScanner from 'qr-scanner' should import the class, and in fact does when executed, but my typechecker's adamant that it's importing the namespace

(at least I think that's the issue)

apparently you're supposed to be able to do that, which means I'm doing something wrong

Seggan

12:56 PM

Hehe when u don't read

lyxal

then why'd you ping me?

Seggan

I said why

i didn't read

Ginger

side note: this was working fine until I changed the package.json to have "type": "module"

I did that because socket.io didn't work unless I did it

lyxal

@Seggan oh I thought you meant I didn't read lol

Ginger

1:15 PM

if I change the import to import * as QrScanner from 'qr-scanner', QrScanner becomes an object with a default property corresponding to the module... but in the browser it becomes the module itself and then yells at me for accessing the nonexistent default property

...or it could not do that???

what the hell

I guess if it works then it works

Ginger

2:03 PM

anyone know of a Python lib that provides a collection of pairs?

I need a good way to relate two clients to each other

ideally a data structure that, when indexed with one client's ID, returns the other client's ID

mousetail

What is a collection of pairs?

Do you mean a dict?

Ginger

maybe that's not the name? I want something like this:

clients = something([clienta, clientb], [clientc, clientd], ...)
clients[clienta] # clientb
clients[clientb] # clienta

mousetail

So a dict?

Ginger

no

a dict is one-way

mousetail

It doesn't have to be

Ginger

2:05 PM

this isn't right either, because you have to use .inverse to get the other ones

I want to be able to do what I described above

mousetail

Just merge the normal dict and it's inverse into one dict

Ginger

that sounds like an incredibly good source of footguns

mousetail

No it's super easy

Ginger

and how do I keep them synchronized when new clients are added?

or when a client leaves?

the potential for subtle bugs is astounding

mousetail

Delete both?

There are 3 functions

Ginger

2:07 PM

my point is that I can do it like that, but I'm worried I'll screw it up

mousetail

So only 3 possible bugs

Ginger

so I'm asking if anyone's done it for me

mousetail

fix them one by one then you are done

(As long as you don't need thread safety)

This is so easy to implement I don't think there would really be good libraries

Ginger

I think what I want is called a bijective map, and I just found a good library for it

yup, it is

mousetail

6 line library?

Ginger

2:10 PM

yeah pretty much

it's actually 121 lines but close enough

user202729

@lyxal Ugh. Yes, some of the striking mods are worried about the "really abusive" things on the network as well. (this one isn't even that bad I think.)

@Ginger well at least hope first. But they do seem to want to get the situation resolved. (somewhat.)

hyper-neutrino

3:33 PM

for the record although I am on strike I am still willing to get rid of anything extremely abusive, so feel free to alert me to them. my goal is to stand in solidarity with the other mods and protest SE's actions, but the main impact to the company of the strike isn't coming from CGCC anyway so I would rather ensure y'all have a safe community over completely unmovingly sticking to this strike (but non-urgent stuff like closing off-topic or deleting non-answers I won't be doing of course)

4

and I believe SO mods have been doing the same even though SO is where the majority of the impact of the strike is felt, because we're trying to force SE to respond and show them they need to value us, not hurt our community members unnecessarily

Q: Moderation Strike: Stack Overflow, Inc. cannot consistently ignore, mistreat, and malign its volunteers

This strike is in protest of recent and upcoming changes to policy and the platform that...
