1:00 PM
If I start talking about the music I like, it will become as cryptic as APL for non-initiates.
 
That's perfectly okay
provided you try to keep it simple at the start
and allow appropriate pauses
I used to answer "tell me about yourself" with a 15 minute story.
That... doesn't work.
 
XD
 
That's what your CV is for.
 
then theres questions regarding the sollitication initiation
by that I mean...
"Why do you want to work for us?"
 
1:03 PM
@rolfl Conflicting documentation then... but it seems to be safe to use
 
that's a question you should have an answer to
invalid answers are "I need money" and "I need a job"
 
That's the real problem. I don't really know what I want to do. I want to try things, to find something that I would really like to do. Starting with what I am already somewhat good at would help.
"I need money and a job."
 
why not the 3rd and 4th sentence?
 
Unless you're applying to McDonalds or something
 
"I want to try things, to find something that I would really like to do, and your company's field of experise made me interested"
 
1:05 PM
@Vogel612 this is perfectly valid
 
"Prostitution is kind of illegal, so I thought that computer science could do it instead."
 
nobody seriously expects the just-finished student to have a plan for the rest of his life..
 
@Morwenn Humor! Good! Sexism! Really, really, really bad.
 
@Pimgd How is that sexist? :o
 
hmm.
It's not, but I'm pretty sure it comes close.
It would have been seriously hurtful if they said it
"So, since prostitution is kind of illegal, you decided to try computer science instead?"
I'd walk right out of the door if I got a comment like that...
 
1:08 PM
@Morwenn aren't you prude over there in france ...
 
... after saying "What?" a few times to verify I didn't mishear things
 
Of course, I would avoid sex-related jokes in a real interview :p
 
@Pimgd I'd say that's a definitely humoristic rebuttal.......
 
It really depends on whether or not they view you as a high-class escort or not
 
@Morwenn also drugs, murder...
 
1:09 PM
what murder?? isn't that normal?
 
@Pimgd More seriously, I thought at a time than running a teahouse could be good.
 
anyone who touches my code will not wake up the next day!

@Vogel612 poke
 
@JeroenVannevel ermagherd.. my code....
 
Livin' on the wild side, baby
 
1:11 PM
aaahhhh don't mix them up!!!
it's Walking on the wild side and Living on a prayer
 
@Vogel612 My plan: Be happy, preferably with some money
2
 
@skiwi good plan. now where do you see yourself in 10 years?
 
@skiwi Happiness is so over-rated these day
 
@Vogel612 Looking for C++ Starter! Requirements: 3-5 years of experience
4
 
@Vogel612 Still happy, preferably with more money than now
 
1:12 PM
You'd be surprised what they expect from newly graduated people
 
If you fall into a job that requires you to know the whole magical world of programming when you're newly gratuated, get. out.
 
also you need knowledge of common framework, common framework, obscure framework, SCRUM (everybody scrums these days, even when it's not scrum and if they don't call it scrum they call it agile)
and another programming language
 
@TopinFrassi Can you really say something about it? I think it's something that everyone just puts on their job offer
 
Agile is good.
 
@Pimgd looking for junior backend developer in java: 3-5 years experience with MySQL, NoSQL, pgSQL and MariaDB, at least 5 years experience in Java, English and [insert language of working country] on contracting-niveau, 2 years experience with Scrum, Kanban, and 2 years. ....
 
1:15 PM
We don't have ANY process, scrum or otherwise.
 
They're also oddly specific with the other programming language.
 
I still don't really know what agile or scrum are... I just code
 
@Donald.McLean who needs something like that anyways.
 
@skiwi Where I work (and I am in the category of newly gratuated) they basically expected nothing from me for the first few months
 
Lucky me, the company sponsored my "Professional Scrum Master" certificate.
 
1:16 PM
@skiwi Agile is what you do had home: code a little bit, test, ask whether that's what you wanted, repeat.
Iterative development methods are agile.
 
Of course, I AM my entire project, so technically I can use whatever process I want, but after all the arguments that I've had with myself about it, it just seems easier to not have a process.
8
 
help help I just realized I'm turning C into Java
 
@Donald.McLean Wait... argument with yourself?
 
I have these structs and they all contain a mallocPtr
 
@Pimgd Did you try to put your main into a struct?
 
1:18 PM
and I have functions "is<STRUCTNAME>Freed" and "free<STRUCTNAME>"
 
@skiwi Why not? I argue with myself all the time.
 
I can be very stubborn...No I'm not...yes I am...are not...am too...are not
 
My names are Bill, Jeff, Bob, and Alice, and we approve this message. — Michael K Mar 12 '12 at 13:54
 
@RubberDuck I usuually call that thinking
 
lol
 
1:19 PM
and... I'm putting all the functions into a single file named <STRUCTNAME>
...
 
Component programming. Way to go.
 
oh, so that's what you call struct-based OOP?
 
We are using iterations, so I guess technically, it's a weakly structured agile process-like thing.
 
@Pimgd You can go even further and use macros to simulate templates and overloading. You end up with some pretty neat C.
 
@Morwenn I'm not allowed to use macro's without asking our C dev.
apparently I make a mess of things.
 
1:22 PM
Not being allowed to write header guards by yourself must be tough then.
 
also CONVERT_3_BYTES_IN_REVERSE_TO_INT24 is not a good macro name
there's no header guards
there's stdafx.h and apiDefs.h
 
CVRT3BYTRVRS2INT24 would look more C-like.
 
@Morwenn see this I what I mean
 
@Pimgd I'm honestly sorry for you then.
 
why does C have all these weird functions that look as if they had to pay for each character
what's wrong with functions like
receiveStreamMessageInNewBuffer_errorCode receiveStreamMessageInNewBuffer(DeviceSession* session, PPPP_Channel channel, char** newPacket, int *size_out, int *type_out);
 
1:24 PM
Because C.
 
@Pimgd because they used to have to pay for every character...
2
 
because creat.
 
I don't like C names, but I don't like overly long names either.
 
@Morwenn but it's self-documenting and descriptive coode
 
@Yuushi shouldn't it be crt ??
 
1:26 PM
The IDE is up to over 800MB. That's 40 times the size of my first hard disk.
 
Aug 20 at 16:56, by Vogel612
If I would have gone for German Overengineering â„¢, I'd have started with a ChampionPlayStyleConfigurationReaderFactory
 
I have function names like establishAuthenticatedConnectionWithDevice and receiveStreamMessageInNewBuffer and getCameraWifiConfiguration
 
*cough*
 
the C dev just looks at the code and sighs
 
@Pimgd getCamWifiConfig is what I think would be ugly
C devs are a special kind of people
 
1:27 PM
cameraWifiConfig would be enough.
 
@skiwi it used to be getCameraCurrentWifi
 
     *
     * @throws Exception ?
     *
     * @todo doc Exception
     */
4
nice
 
bool getCameraWifiConfiguration(DeviceSession* session, Resp_wifi_list_value* out_wifiInfo);
 
@Vogel612 The joke is that Rob Pike has mentioned if he could change one thing, it'd be to spell creat with an 'e'
 
Excel VBA people!!!! UNITE!
 
1:28 PM
@Malachi crickets
 
UGH!
 
Dim myWbXlSheetConfig As Variant
 
@Vogel612 XlSheet... it's big, I guess
 
I am trying to find a way to extract values from column c where the value doesn't show in column a and b
 
Also, you often have to repeat things in C (because no clever abstractions). That's probably a good enough reason to use short names.
 
1:30 PM
if any of you VBA people or Excel people are watching...... I am in search mode
 
I think alcohol and time have made me forget C
 
So, for example, boolean doesShorterNameExistThatEquallyConvaysTheBehaviorOfTheMethod(String s) should be refactored to boolean isTooLong(String s). — z5h Feb 9 '10 at 17:08

@Morwenn Uh-huh, but when I'm told to use strncpy (vocally) then I don't understand
 
@Malachi Cells("C:C").stream().filter(c -> !Cells("A:B").contains(c.value)).extract()
 
because my brain expects some of aeiou in there
 
1:31 PM
just de-java8ify it and...
 
copy and overloading helps to make things easy.
 
@Vogel612 oh so that isn't an Excel formula or VBA?
 
so establishAuthenticatedConnectionWithDevice could be mkAuthConn?
 
@Malachi it's a horrific mashup between VBA and Java8 Streams.
 
Too many star worthy things. Maybe I need to up my star standards.....
5
@Malachi What's up?
 
1:33 PM
4 mins ago, by Malachi
I am trying to find a way to extract values from column c where the value doesn't show in column a and b
 
@Pimgd makeConnection could be sufficient. With strong types, you will give a Device parameter, make may be enough to convey establish and can you establish a connection that is not authenticated?
 
In VBA?
 
in my searches they keep using the word unique, but they mean distinct! UGH
 
@Malachi Breathe cuz. Do you want to do this with a formula, or code?
 
@RubberDuck if I can figure out how to use VBA in Excel, YES!
@RubberDuck either, macro would probably be better, because I can see this as being useful in the future
 
1:35 PM
@Malachi which excel version are you on??
 
@Morwenn You can, but it sends a auth request and if you send anything but auth response it blows up in your face. the first thing that function does it call connectToDevice
 
because the developer tab is hidden somewhere else every darn time
 
2010?
 
you got the dev tab in your ribbon already?
 
@Malachi Steal my enumberable class. It has an Exists method.
 
1:36 PM
14.0.7128.5000 (32-bit)
 
well... it doesn't blow in your face, it just closes the connection. It's like opening a TCP connection; you start with the handshake. If you send bogus data the connection closes.
 
@RubberDuck will it work on 8k rows?
 
Yeah. You just pass it a Range A, Merge Range B, then call exists.
 
how do I make it work in Excel? lol
 
1:37 PM
@Pimgd When naming things, I consider that the types in the signature can convey information that you can remove from the function's name.
 
Import the file, then use it like any other class.
 
Agreed, it' harder in C because there is no function overloading.
 
I have never used VBA in my life...
 
Unless you use _Generic, but I don't think that it is already used in production code.
 
@Morwenn bool establishAuthenticatedConnectionWithDevice(DeviceSession* out_session, char* deviceId, char* devicePassword, bool enableLanSearch)
 
1:39 PM
File>>Import
 
@RubberDuck That's ironic
 
Then just do some thing like this.
Dim something As New Enumerable
 
I'm not allowed to use in-structs since it's an api to be used in obj-c and java.
 
@RubberDuck downloading it where I want it...give me a second, do I only need that one class or do I need more than that?
 
@Malachi It will stand alone.
 
1:40 PM
"in-structs" being structs you have to create yourself and are only passed into a function

Q: Email validation using JavaScript

pt18cherI have a function where I validate emails via a regex. I was wondering if this is the best regex to use or if there's a better way of doing it. Also if there's a difference between this method and just setting the type="email" in the HTML form <form name="form" action="process_registration.jsp"...

Q: Proper way to validate from sub to sub

ChaseCI am using a public validating sub to help validate the other subs. Is this the most efficient way to do this? Public Sub Validator(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles GrossRevenueButton.Click, CPTCodesButton.Click, EstablishedVisitsButton.Click Dim validater As Integer = 0 'this is th...

 
@Pimgd That's tough.
 
Dim e as New Enumerable
Set e.Collection = Range("A:A")
e.Merge(Range("B:B"))
bool = e.Contains(somevalue)
 
Monking!
 
I am going to have to loop through the items in Column C
this is going to be FUN!
 
1:45 PM
Dim cell as Range
For each cell In Range("C:C")
    bool = e.Contains(cell)
next cell
 
Ohhhhh speaking of fun, I get to write some C# for work today. Nice. =)
 
Toodles!
 
@RubberDuck this is what I am working with, I want to create a 4th column with the values that exist in C but not in A or B
@RubberDuck NICE
let me think on this for a second and see what I can figure out
 
@Malachi Right? Ping me if you have trouble. And please don't hesitate to submit bugs to the repo if you find any. I'm pretty confident the kinks are worked out though.
 
1:50 PM
like I said, I have never done VBA before in Real Life
 
I have to go. Thank you everyone (especially @Pimgd) for your valuable advice and see you later! :)
 
2:06 PM
not responding...lol
but I got it running......
 
so my boss called a meeting
we're ditching the current project
...
aka commit and forget the last 4 weeks
 
That sucks.
 
@Pimgd Save your code!
 
it's still running.... or not responding
 
@skiwi I got permission to check in a broken build
woop
 
2:14 PM
I have written very good code. Only I don't know the configuration settings which make it work good
 
@Malachi It's running. VBA likes to make things "Not respond". How long has it been going? Maybe my contains function is slow.
 
about 10 minutes
 
cntrl + break will put it in debug mode
You might want to see what's going on.
 
@RubberDuck won't do that either.... I assume you meant the Pause Break button next to the scroll lock key
 
Can someone tell me if I'm insane or if this comment truly makes no sense?
Thanks. However, this gives me only the Odds with the highest "time" field - which is not what I want. For each Offer in the database - I want the Odds from that Offer with the "highest" time - that's why I'm using the Max. — Martol1ni 27 mins ago
 
2:18 PM
@Malachi Weird.....
 
highest "time" | "highest" time (same thing no?)
Maybe they are talking about some sort of cumulative time... odd design if that's the case.
 
@RubberDuck tell me if I wrote this right
Dim e As New Enumerable
Set e.Collection = Range("A:A")
e.Merge (Range("B:B"))

Dim cell As Range
Dim columnD As New Enumerable
For Each cell In Range("C:C")
	If Not (e.Contains(cell)) Then
		columnD.Add (cell)
	End If
Next cell

Range("D:D") = columnD
it's still going been about 15 minutes now....lol
@RubberDuck I ran that in a sub.....
 
This won't work. Range("D:D") = columnD
Other than that, you might want to limit yourself to the used range in each column.
 
there is Header Text too that I didn't account for
how do I return the Enumerable to the column?
 
It would take another loop.... hmmmmm maybe there's a better way.

Q: C# Autowiring publishers/listeners with reflection in unity framework

Q: Error Finding Last Used cell In VBA

jamesWhen finding last Used cell value using: Dim last_row As Integer Dim LastRow As Long LastRow = Range("E4:E48").End(xlDown).Row Debug.Print LastRow I am getting wrong output when I input one element in data cell. But when I input more than one value it gives me correct output.What...

 
Just my code I see today...
scoreFunctions.add(invoiceDataSet -> {
    if (invoiceDataSet.hasProperty(TemplateProperty.INVOICE_NUMBER)) {
        return 0;
    }
    String invoiceNumber = invoiceDataSet.getPropertyValue(TemplateProperty.INVOICE_NUMBER, InvoiceNumber.getDataClass());
    int countNumbers = (int)invoiceNumber.codePoints().filter(Character::isDigit).count();
    return Math.round((countNumbers * 1f / invoiceNumber.length()) * 10);
});
And that first if should be a negation...
 
Awww that's cute. My employer just handed out rice crispie treats along with a note about us being superheroes to our customers.
 
2:38 PM
Aaaaaaaaannnnnnddddd you're fired.
No, seriously that's awesome
 
Meh. I'm sure it made all the kids in the call center happy...
 
lol
 
Well, it's great to have an employer that is able to say you do good work, even if it's with childish stuff
 
Do we accept new tags creation on edit suggestions ?
 
@TopinFrassi true I guess
 
2:41 PM
@Marc-Andre if they are good tags
if they aren't then edit the suggested edit, if that is the only thing wrong with the rest of the edit. if that is the only thing and it's not a good tag then reject it
 
I don't think is a good tag
 
@Phrancis Plus, let's be honest. Who doesn't like rice crispies?
 
That, is a fact.

Q: Mongoose promise & error handling

xpepermintI search for rails-like way of writing nodejs code and it's more then hard to find the right way. The code quickly become bloated and unreadable. I would like my code to be as clean as possible. Example (common express.js middleware API controller): exports.updateUser = function(req, res, next)...

 
@Marc-Andre should be a IOC tag
seems like IOC is not limited to Unity.
should also be a unity Tag
 
2:47 PM
the IOC part is covered by I think
 
well then I need to remove that tag....oops
nick is going to get dinged
 
@Malachi - removed the unity tag.
 
what about the tag? do we need that either?
@rolfl are you talking about the one I put on that one question?
 
Yes, I rolled back your edit to those tags.
I also rejected a bunch of suggested edits adding unityioc.
 
@rolfl I saw that, I was going back to see if any made it through but you beat me to it....lol
 
2:53 PM
Does anyone here work in a place where they have so-called relax rooms? Or are you all supposed to code 2x 4h straight?
 
@skiwi just 8 hours a day?
 
and then removed the unityioc tag added (and approved earlier) that slipped through on... codereview.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/26467
 
@RubberDuck Well, isn't that normal to work 8 hours?
 
@skiwi I do.
 
@skiwi Just 8? I may need a new job......
 
2:56 PM
How much are you working then?
 
@rolfl that's the one I saw you caught, I went back because I noticed it when I went looking for other questions tagged with it.
 
between 45 and 55 a week.
 
@rolfl Was just wondering on how many companies actually offered that
 
It all just depends. I'm salaried, so....... yeah.
 
@RubberDuck Ouch, that's quite a lot
 
2:56 PM
we should try to get Nick in here, seems like he would be a good contributor to our community
 
Building cluster is on 4 levels, with 4 blocks (so, it's like 4 cubes) attached with these 'joining' wings. The ground floor is all facilities, receptions, canteens, etc. 2nd floor is about half complete server rooms.
All the other floors have a chill-spot on the connecting 'wings'.
we have a zen area (waterfall cascading, etc.), a pizza spot, table-tennis, library, foosball, arcade, etc.
chess, museum, darts, hmmmm
The table-tennis area gets the most noisy.
The meeting room next to the foosball table is.... unpopular.
 
You seem to work at a great place
But hey it's IBM!
 
Well, yeah, but then, there's a couple of thousand people in the building ;-)
 
@RubberDuck how does this look?
Sub FindUnAssigned()
    Dim e As New Enumerable
    Set e.Collection = Range("A3:A4310")
    e.Merge (Range("B3:B502"))

    Dim cell As Range
    Dim columnD As New Enumerable
    For Each cell In Range("C3:C8056")
        If Not (e.Contains(cell)) Then
            columnD.Add (cell)
        End If
    Next cell

    Dim i As Integer
    For i = 0 To columnD.Count - 1
       Dim j As Integer
       j = i + 3
       Range("D" & j) = columnD.item(i)
    Next i

End Sub
 
I miss the gym at our office. It was nice.
@Malachi Looks right, but you hardcoded the ranges. What if the used range changes?
 
3:08 PM
@nickudell Care to discuss ?
 
I feel there should be a server kept under close guard somewhere that handles all sorts of conversions between values like feet and meters.
You'd standardize the digital constants of a meter and a kilo like that.
 
google.ca? Does it nicely, "what is 1450 feet in meters"
> 441.96
 
true... the idea of "there should only be one, so there's one absolute truth" doesn't work with the redundancy of the internet
 
> what is 1450 feet in parsecs -> 1.43229481 × 10-14 Parsecs
 
@Pimgd trying to do something like that you might also open up a can of worms...
 
3:11 PM
Huh, never knew:
> 1 parsec is the distance at which a disc with a radius of 1 astronomical unit appears to subtend an angle of 1 arcsecond
2
 
I was just thinking out loud though, I know it's a silly idea.
But still, if we keep physical objects to represent constants in one place, why not do it online too?
 
It's not that silly, I imagine there's a restful API somewhere that can do it....
if not, there should be.
make it.
 
nooo it can't be some API!
Then every heathen could run it on their own server
It must be centralized and monitored
... okay it's a silly idea
 
What I am saying, is that, if you corner something like the http://convertme.to/meters/12345.66/parsecs ..... then you're singing, right?
2
 
more realistic ideas: There should be online virtual machines to test things in

3:33 PM
Wow. The DB programmer that worked on one of my tickets committed updates on the wrong column...
 
@Phrancis Ouch
 
@rolfl Hi Rolfl, I was starting to see a lot of questions involving the unity DI/IOC framework from Microsoft and, since it's a way of coding many may be unfamiliar with, along with having its own specific quirks, being able to restrict the tag so that those questions don't show up (or vice versa if you're an expert) sounded useful to me.
 
I think you are on the right track, but I want to ensure things don't become a different sort of problem.
Tags on CR tend to be more conceptual, and not implementation specific.
For example, we have linked-list, not LinkedList (Java), or the C++ specific version, or whatever) as tags.
IOC is a concept that is broad....
unity is a concept that is maybe OK as a tag too (not sure).
but, the right solution would be to have .
Now, , goes hand in hand with .
which already exists....
so, instead of finding experts in , the opposite is happening, the tag is only useful for people interested in only ioc in unity, and not in general, or in general.
 
@NickUdell A good idea would be to ask a meta question about it first. Then we could conclude as community if we need a tag.
 
^^^ what Marc says.
I am happy to discuss the tag, but I want to get the discussion done before we get to the point where there's this whole bunch of questions that have to be untagged.

@RubberDuck I know what you mean, I am a very new to this, let me see if I can decipher that
ummmmm........
@RubberDuck let's see what happens!
does VBA start its indexes at 0 or 1?
 
4:11 PM
@Malachi It depends....
Which sucks. Arrays start at 0, Collections start at 1.
Which reminds me..... I need to go add that to the "Why your language sucks" wiki.
 
so I need to change the for loop to start at 1 instead of 0 because you are using collections behind the scenes
oh I think it froze.....it ran, I think it's back now
that code I wrote didn't work right, it did the opposite of what I wanted it to do...I think
@RubberDuck your contains function is wack yo
 
@Malachi What's up?
I haven't had any trouble with it.
 
@RubberDuck let me test my fix first. there was a Contains = false in your ExitFunction:
 
@Mat'sMug I added to this. wiki.theory.org/YourLanguageSucks
@Malachi Yeah. It explicitly sets to false if it's not found.... hmmmm.... is that a problem?
Public Function Contains(itemToSearchFor As Variant, Optional ByVal compareByDefaultProperty = False) As Boolean
Attribute Contains.VB_Description = "Checks if an item exists in a Collection. Matches on the Default Property by Default. Runtime Error 438 'Object does not support method' may be raised when using 'compareByDefaultProperty'."
On Error GoTo ErrHandler

    Dim item As Variant

    'compareByDefaultProperty is an unsafe option
    For Each item In mCollection
        If IsObject(item) And Not compareByDefaultProperty Then
 
it always sets to false
wait
 
4:25 PM
No. It exits the function if it finds the item.
 
and goes through the ExitFunction
which sets it to false
 
No.... but you've convinced me that's a bad name for the label.
 
when I commented it out, I got closer to the right results
 
Exit Function is like a return.
 
@Marc-Andre In that case the Help for tag creation definitely needs updating to suggest discussion on meta first.
 
4:26 PM
I know. it looks like it should go through that portion of code when the code exits the function though
 
Yeah. I need to change that label name.
Or just do away with it. It doesn't do anything. Not really.
 
@rolfl Good point, IOC only or dependency-injection are the applicable tags here, I see that now. Thanks for the heads up
 
np.
There is possibly a need for unity.... not sure (not a domain expert).
 
Oh. Shite..... @Malachi, call contains like this
 
There's unity3D, but that's different.
 
4:29 PM
@RubberDuck running it again
 
e.Contains(cell,true)
You have to tell it to use the default property.
Or, you could call this
e.Contains(cell.Value)
 
Sub FindUnAssigned()
    Dim e As New Enumerable
    Set e.Collection = Range("A3:A4310")
    e.Merge (Range("B3:B502"))

    Dim cell As Range
    Dim columnD As New Enumerable
    For Each cell In Range("C3:C8056")
        If Not (e.Contains(cell.value)) Then
            columnD.Add (cell.value)
        End If
    Next cell

    Dim i As Integer
    For i = 1 To columnD.Count
       Dim j As Integer
       j = i + 2
       Range(("D" & j), ("D" & columnD.Count + 2)) = columnD.item(i)
    Next i
like that @RubberDuck
I hit a runtime error
@RubberDuck do you have a VBA chatroom yet?

Q: Revised Chunk Loader for 2D Mining Game

bazolaUnfortunately I believe I posted this question about a Chunk Loader too soon. This morning I came up with a way to make the program much more efficient. Performance has increased dramatically, so I will post the revised code here in this question. The biggest problem with the code was that I w...

 
@RubberDuck can't mods unfreeze them?
VBA is freaking picky!

Idk. I do know I need to eat. bbs.
What's it throwing?
 
I tried cell.value and it didn't like being given a string, it want's an object.
I got it to work!
 
What'd you do?
 
contains(cell,true)
let me make sure it has nothing to do with that ExitFunction
and I will get rid of it in my Git
 
Cool. I'm starving. Mind submitting a bug report for the cell.value thing?
That shouldn't happen.
 
@RubberDuck let's talk about it after lunch

Point me to the room and I can unlock it....

@rolfl I thought that iterative reviews were on topic? does that mean I should have deleted the old question?
 
iterative reviews are fine, but there's no real value in getting reiews on the first question, right?
 
4:44 PM
well, not all of the code between the questions is the same. I don't mind deleting the old question but then I would include the relevant code and explanation in the new question, and not call it "Revised"
should I have just edited the old question to include the new code, since it hadn't been reviewed yet?
 
Would it make sense to delete the second question and merge the content back in to the first?
@bazola - this is a new one, not sure what the right response is.
What I can say, though, is that it does not seem appropriate to have a review request for both the old and the new questions at the same time.
I'm open to suggestions, and also to the option of reopening both, if there's something I am missing (like you say the code is different).
 
well, that is good that we are covering something new at least :) I think the best solution is to edit the old question to include the new code. I am just always hesitant to edit the code in questions because someone could be working on an answer at that moment. but since it is on hold, I will revise the old question to include the new code and delete the new question
i think that is the cleanest solution
 
If you can be happy with that, then I can too... ;-)
You can edit them in their closed state... so go ahead.
