@voretaq7 Just think of the abuse you can power!

user11126

ChrisF

23:00

It takes a while to be de-diamonded

Aarthi

@MattChan hahahah we're all laughing

WendiKidd

@Aarthi Honestly, it doesn't take a lot of time on a beta site. I spend a lot of time with my site because I like to, but there isn't enough stuff going wrong that it needs that much moderation. By the time the site graduated maybe you'd have more time! ;)

ManishEarth

@MichaelMrozek Cody Gray, one mod on Bio, etc etc

Thomas Owens

@Aarthi for Freelancing mod?

mmyers

@ChrisF You realize you're the only one in position to run a scientific study on this

ManishEarth

23:01

Have lost diamonds after 6 months of inactivity

ChrisF

@mmyers But I'd have to sacrifice a diamond.

voretaq7

lol "Crazy freelancing mod"

WendiKidd

@Aarthi No really, you could handle a beta site I think :)

David Zaslavsky

@Aarthi hehe, that brings back memories

mmyers

@ChrisF Three, I think, if I ran the numbers right

But it's for science!

ManishEarth

23:02

@ChrisF That's like losing a sock. Get another pair

Thomas Owens

Uhm...waffles?

WendiKidd

bwahahahahaha.

voretaq7

@Aarthi You've seen the teachers lounge. What Has Been Seen --- Cannot Be Unseen

WesleyDavid

@ManishEarth Don't bring up socks around ServerFaulters. It gets... perverse...

Oh. Yeah. He was waffles? o_o

WesleyDavid

WesleyDavid

@voretaq7 Do I need to start posting /r/picsofdeadkids in The Comms?

Rebecca Chernoff

23:05

Michael Mrozek

@RebeccaChernoff I see no reason to be on the sites if you can't ban people you don't like

mmyers

TL was different two days after CHAOS started, to be honest

voretaq7

Still waiting to see if the Aviation proposal actually gets off the ground

@WesleyDavid I used that handle in Quake...

WesleyDavid

@voretaq7 Really? =D

mmyers

@voretaq7 You missed the perfect time to use "gets off the ground"

voretaq7

23:05

@WesleyDavid yup

WendiKidd

@Aarthi Oh I see. So you just like that we all come running when you call. ;P

HodofHod

@casperOne Naw. Haven't been back to your side of the country in about a year.

voretaq7

@mmyers I resisted the urge to pun quite successfully

ManishEarth

@Aarthi they ate MathOverflow too

casperOne

@HodofHod You Cali? Gone all Hollywood? =)

mmyers

23:06

@voretaq7 You've been warned. Don't let this happen again

Thomas Owens

@mmyers False.

voretaq7

HodofHod

WesleyDavid

@voretaq7 You just got called out, son.

Aarthi

voretaq7

23:07

We're not allowed to cook in the comms room anymore.

Aarthi

ManishEarth

@voretaq7 Psh. Real sysadmins use sudo !!

voretaq7

Something about refilling the halon system being REALLY expensive

@Aarthi whimpers and hides

WesleyDavid

@voretaq7 That and the roadkill recycling debacle.

mmyers

@ManishEarth Real sysadmins who can't remember to use sudo?

Robert Harvey

@badp I'm watching sf4 on the smash stream now, I feel dirty. I don't know if I want to expose my daughter to smash. Might be a bad influence.

@HodofHod Unfortunately, I have to deal with the face hurt every day. Not unfortunate, really.

ManishEarth

Madara Uchiha

@ManishEarth You can get it on your phone

badp

@Aarthi so how do you measure temperature unscientifically? "Oh yeah, this must be like low 80s, I can feel it in my toe"

ManishEarth

@MadaraUchiha no wifi, and crappy data plan

Madara Uchiha

@ManishEarth Then as we say in Hebrew

"Zabash'cha" Sorry :P

ManishEarth

23:22

Programmers Stack Exchange Blog: How to make Stack Exchange behave exactly how you want it to

Manishearth on July 12, 2013

So you’ve been using Stack Exchange for a while now and, like most other programmers, expect to be able to customize the website. I’ve seen many feature requests on the main meta, and a large fraction of them never get implemented because:

It’s not a feature that everyone will like — Stack Exchange tries not to provide too many customization options, so features that will be annoying to some won’t be implemented

It’s a rather minor feature that may be only useful to some people (or will be used rarely), and not worth the developer time …
