RELOAD!

There are 1368 unanswered questions (94.5186% answered)

Does it matter? IMHO no, the askers need a fast answer. Anything taking more than let's say one week is usually too late.

A: Sprite-Kit/Swift game

You've posted quite a lot of code, and as such, for now I'm going to focus simply on a big picture overview of your code (and its organization). This is the first thing that stands out to me is that you've got property declarations interspersed through all of your method declarations. Move all ...

@QPaysTaxes The unanswered count.

maaartinus

@QPaysTaxes The number of unanswered questions.

nhgrif

94.5% answered is probably a sign that we don't get enough questions.

maaartinus

I'd care about number of questions unanswered in the first 3 days, maybe.

nhgrif

12:14 AM

It really doesn't matter... we're well, well over whatever percentage SE sets as the benchmark for beta sites.

@QPaysTaxes No, number of questions where oldest answer post day is 72 hours after question post day or greater

Not really.

Q: Is this C# attribute container a stupid idea?

I made this really simple "attribute container" class that allows you to store arbitrary data to an object at will, sorta like in python how you can just assign attributes to arbitrary objects, but in C#. My gut is telling me it's a terrible idea, but I just want to get a group onion. This is th...

Also, you'd want to include unanswered questions older than 3 days

But not unanswered questions less than 3 days old.

I was saying "not really" to "that'd be a bit harder"

What's the post type ID for questions? 1?

And 2 = answers?

yup

Phrancis

@QPaysTaxes Variables are your friends, my friend

DECLARE @Answer INT = (SELECT Id FROM PostTypes WHERE Name = 'Answer')

No need to memorize IDs then

nhgrif

Hmm

SEDE thinks there are 1411 unanswered questions older than 3 days, and just 1 unanswered question less than 3 days old...

@Duga thinks otherwise...

Phrancis

Mind the SEDE data dumps happen only once a week

SirPython

Wrote a Java answer.

nhgrif

Sure, but I would expect @Duga to have a higher number than SEDE, not lower.

Phrancis

Well, either the query is wrong or the data is right

nhgrif

So the data is right.

Because I wrote the query...

Phrancis

I've seen a lot of zombie answers lately

So yes, I think it's reasonable to say the data is right

@SirPython Concerning our comments: IMHO "instance-mapping" is the right working and also the right solution.

SirPython

@maaartinus It wouldn't be the right wording for my answer, as I did not use an actual Map.

maaartinus

@SirPython That's what I meant. I'd keep the wording and change the implementation. ;)

@maaartinus I don't feel right doing that; I'm not the one who came up with that idea for an implementation. You can post your own answer if you'd like.

Q: Modular arithmetic

As the name says, LongModulus is a pretty long (lengthy) class implementing modular arithmetic for a long modulus. As overflow is a problem, I implemented two subclasses, one for moduli not using the highest non-sign bit (i.e., smaller than \$2^{62}\$) and one for the others. The code uses Guava...

Quill

1:37 AM

Also @QPaysTaxes, to put it into perspective, I have the same amount of answers as you, and one more question asked

Also, looking at your zombie finder

I dare say... could you use a ternary

     if (tag.indexOf("-") == 0) {
      current = "-%5B" + tag.substring(1);
    } else {
      current = "%5B" + tag;
    }

current = (tag.indexOf("-") == 0 ? "-%5B" + tag.substring(1) : "%5B" + tag);

Never mind then :P

Really?

@Quill That's still perverted! Why to search for '-' when you want to know if the string starts with it?

No, I put it around the s because it's a variable

You've tagged this c++/c but I'm guessing you're just doing c++. What you'll want to do is create a class that inherits from std::iterator, that class will then define methods that describe how to walk your collection. See this link for more an example: codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/74609/…. Notice how they embed an iterator class that extends the std::iterator class with knowledge of how to walk his specific container. — Walter Delevich 58 secs ago

Boy, the elections are really getting people to post answers.

1 flagged comment that needs to be handled.

8 days of flags worth left (comment only) until I get the gold flag badge.

If I flag enough posts, it could be less.

I'm also 210/500 for the gold edit badge.

I've never won a bounty, I should try sometime.

I tried on SO on a question asking how to do something in CSS.

All the answers said to do it in jQuery, and I explained how to do it in CSS, but I was just downvoted and the bounty said it wanted a way to do it in CSS, but it was given to a jQuery answer.

I don't remember if I deleted the answer - probably.

There are 7 featured now, I should try again.

Q: Spell Corrector in C

maaartinus

@QPaysTaxes Concerning short names: Once we had `Math.pow` rather than `power`, there's no need to use the long version anymore. And lacking the possibility to write

a - b * c

for e.g. `BigInteger`, I'd really prefer

a.sub(b.mul(c))

to

a.subtract(b.multiply(c))

because of:

1. the longer the worse
2. sub/mul is exactly as clear as subtract/multiply. Everyone knows it.

That's it... long names lead to long lines pretty soon and there aren't many things as bad as broken lines.

@QPaysTaxes No... let it be. It's a valid point, though you may have changed your mind.

Sure... shift32 is in the part I haven't touched since.

Well... then maybe just add what we wrote now, so that it's clear you haven't missed this point, but just decided that it's fine.

Yes.

Fine!
