I'm working on a moderately complicated (not super basic, but not a feat of programming strength) project to create a virtual tabletop for a tabletop game I play. I'm trying to conform to good design practices and patterns, specifically I'd like to keep everything as nicely MVC-oriented as possib...
@EBrown No no, no no no! Only working code is on-topic on Code Review! This question says: "...unable to get it working . I am trying to perform this using LINQ, but i can't seem to get it working right..." — Simon André Forsberg54 secs ago

Unfortunately, the link to Code Review is not likely to happen, because Code Review is not "graduated" yet - beta sites are not linked in the migration or other places. This may be changing now with this post: Clarifying understanding of beta-site state... but I don't think so. A good solution woul dbe for Code Review to actually graduate ;-) — rolfl30 secs ago

Perhaps if enough people drew attention to the problem I describe in this SO Meta question and manage to get enough support to update the on-topic help section of SO, more awareness of this site could be generated. — EBrown3 mins ago
@rolfl I do agree that SO's on-topic page needs an update. As far as I have been able to tell, it doesn't say there that code-review style questions are off-topic.
@EBrown is it even possible to educate people as to what's on topic on Programmers? To the best of my knowledge nobody understands what's on topic there. =;)- — RubberDuck13 secs ago
I was really tempted to ping @Nobody btw.
While this suggestion is a good idea, it is important to note that currently, about 90% of all suggestions in comments to post at Programmers are bad recommendations. For Code Review, about 50% of all suggestions to post a question there are bad recommendations. — Simon André Forsberg23 secs ago
@SimonAndréForsberg are those legit statistics, or did you just make that up?
@RubberDuck It would be easier to explain Programmers as more of a site based around the concepts of programming and not any specific problems or issues. — EBrown30 secs ago
You're on Stack Overflow and you've found a question that isn't about coding. It's about design or something squishy like that. You are trying to be helpful, and you put a comment in the question:
You should try asking on Programmers.SE instead. --YourName 2 minutes ago

@RubberDuck yes, about two weeks after they started using @Duga. I guess that thanks to @Duga, they could find somewhat of a pattern in the bad recommendations they were getting and summarized things in a meta question.
I don't think I could give a concise statement of what's actually on-topic here even though I can identify/justify it easily for any given example question
I wrote this script to get text, if it equals, append the name of the group to a person's information. I know using .each() is gpu intensive and this feels like a poor way of writing the code.
code:
var committee = $('.committee');
var committeeName = $('.committee-name');
var deta...
I have made this small text-based dice rolling game in C++. How could I improve it? Be as picky as you'd like.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
void mainGame(int &numDice);
int main()
{
srand (time(NULL));
int gameRunning = true;

This would be off-topic on Code Review as there is no code to review in the question. Please familiarize yourself with out Help Center before recommending to post there. — Phrancis30 secs ago
yes, that's why we get a decent reopen rate on those. but migrating a question without code would result in a rejected migration and a not-so-warm-start-for-a-new-user
@OP - I looked at your code on Github, and your question would be perfectly acceptable for Code Review, as long as you include your actual code in the question, especially your index.php code. You're welcome to delete your question here and post it on there: codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/ask — Phrancis6 secs ago
@Phrancis I'd hope OP would read the prominent "How To Ask" box on the "Ask a Question" page before posting it there, but the question itself - "review my code" - would appear to belong on CR, formatting/content revisions notwithstanding. — ceejayoz5 mins ago
^^ Yeah right. People read the help center in the same way most programmers write documentation ;)
@QPaysTaxes I have. I can promise you. I bet others have as well. You might just not know when it happens. It's not really like we're saying "I'M KICKING THIS PERSON NOW!" when we do it.
@QPaysTaxes As I've said before: Ping room owners or moderators. In The 2nd Monitor, @Mat'sMug and I are room owners. I think you know the moderators already.
sufficiently advanced HTML/CSS/SQL can require someone with programming skills, though in those cases there's probably a Turing-complete language connected to them somehow
