@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut What do you think about this edit:
http://physics.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/30461
It contains valuable information.

@Mostafa It's a CW. It should be a separate answer o_O

I could be wrong, so I'll leave it to the others ;-)

Ok, thanks. Can we flag it so one of the moderators can post it as a separate answer?

It seems @jinawee has approved it.

@Qmechanic ^^^

11:32 AM

@Mostafa Oh, sorry. I thought that Plotly was a matplotlib extension. It would be good to post it as another answer.

@jinawee Nah, don't worry. It still needs another reviewer :)

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut How to figure out the review decision of a particular question?

If that's a suggested edit, it needs two reviews...

@hwlau It's your opinion. You're not a mod. You can do whatever you think would be right :D

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut It seems Willie Wong has rejected it!! Still needs one more review!

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut I mean, I remember we can check who decide whether accept or decline, how can we check it?

@hwlau Once you review, go back to the page... :D

@Mostafa Wait, how can you see people's decisions?

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut We can do that , that is why I am asking you the question above

12:04 PM

I'll better make a new post and attribute to the suggester -_-

I think it is better to make it as a new answer, as it is different from the original. Can we just copy it ?

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut From the recent reviews queue, and then checking the user's profile. (activity --> reviews)

ah.... forgot that :D

@hwlau I just did ;-)

@Mostafa Thanks, his one: physics.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/30461

@hwlau Once a review is done, it's visible to anyone :D

12:10 PM

At last, rejected!

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut Thanks :) I just pass the threshold for review

@hwlau Cool!!! Welcome to the edit review queue :P

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut Does it show as "rejeted" to you?

@jinawee Like I said, it's visible to everyone now...

@jinawee yeah, I was the one who overrided it :)

I mean, "rejeted", not "rejected"

12:14 PM

@jinawee Heh, yeah... Nice find - good post for MSO :D

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut I was thinking of that, but I needed [status-reproduced]

@jinawee Reproducible. Why there is no body figure it out before? strange

Already on meta: meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/212595/…

It seems they just roll out the new versoin of stackexchange

an hours ago

heh, "versoin" :P

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut Don't picky, peanut!

@KyleKanos What happened? :D

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut I was supposed to have a Skype interview 30 minutes ago for a post-doc job.

But no calls yet

ah... Maybe they'll call lately :)

// they're testing you :D

Yeah, I'm just going to send him an email asking if he wants to reschedule or if Skype is blocking him from calling me.

Hah..!!! Great, do that first :D

3:39 PM

Just saddening really

I didn't know that physicists (nor physics students) had emotions :P

I don't think physicists have emotions.

But fathers do.

heh, that's still debatable :D

Ah, he just added me.

BBL :D

@KyleKanos Nice... Good luck!!! ;-)

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut Thanks!

The interview went well, but there are other people I'm competing against.

Hopefully it'll work out.

@KyleKanos Other people, like who? they're your field? (I have no idea how such an interview happens, nor do I have an experience :P)

Qmechanic

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut : What does emotion stand for? Electronic motion? :P

@Waffle'sCrazyPeanut Other people who are in the field

@Qmechanic LOL... Alrighty, I agree that you're a physicist :D

@KyleKanos ah...

5:19 PM

Hmm... Looks like it counts deleted answers too :D

And, I don't honestly understand what "high activity" user means :P

How many classifications are really there?

Where did you find such information?

@KyleKanos physics.stackexchange.com/users/tag-future/current

Fancy!

Thanks

ah, now I get it. You weren't here when Manish brought that up :D

@KyleKanos you're welcome :)

Hello?

@TimTimmy hello

@hwlau Got some good knowledge in current and electricity? Thanks

@TimTimmy What?

@hwlau My AQA GCSE book states:

> Metals contain lots of electrons that move freely between the positively charged metal ions.

This perfectly makes sense. However, it goes on to say:

> These electrons stop the **ions moving away from each other.**

This coincides with other knowledge from other books that:

> The free electrons slow down when they collide with the fixed positive ions and their bound electrons.

What does the book mean by "the ions moving away from each other"?

Many thanks

I guess the ion it referred is +ve charge, so they repel each other

With the -ve charge electron, the total charge is neutral

so they would not repel each other by a kind of shielding

8:59 PM

@hwlau I understand that, but why are the electrons stopping the ions from moving away from each other, while they are moving?

Thanks in advance

Wait a sec...

Is it that the electrons collide with the ions which stop the ions from moving?

Thanks
