I've added some comments on this closed challenge. Do they seem reasonable, and do they seem sufficient to reopen the challenge?
Jul 4, 2019 10:11
@Adám Should be done now :)

Q: Which links and sites are handled specially in chat?

Juha SyrjäläThere is a special linking to some sites in chat, also known as "onebox". What is the full list of supported and integrated sites? Return to FAQ index

Jun 30, 2019 18:26
@MilkyWay90 FYI xkcd oneboxes so you don't have to post an image, and that way we can see the hover text from chat
Jun 29, 2019 15:49
Did you get an answer earlier, or is this meant as a CMC?
Jun 29, 2019 15:03
Thanks for linking, by the way, I hadn't seen the earlier interesting conversation
Jun 29, 2019 15:00
The duplicate target requires them in order. This new request seems to be a trivial "yes" without that constraint.
Jun 29, 2019 13:13
@Anush By space do you mean memory? If so provided you can output them one at a time I don't see why not

Some great quotes in that game
Mar 26, 2019 20:06
That seems a reasonably strong consensus to me, and that's apparently based on the case where the two answers are in exactly the same language. So I'd be even more inclined to allow them when the language is different
Mar 26, 2019 19:56
I might care slightly more if they were posted by the same person, but still not much
Mar 26, 2019 19:56
I, for one, do not

(that you will encounter in practice)

I feel like this problem isn't beyond solving, but the only answer so far suggests it is. Thought I'd mention it here as I'm guessing several of you would like to be able to rely on code block width

Q: Code blocks cut off at different widths on different operating systems

trichoplaxI couldn't find this already raised apart from for mobile browsers, and this is a separate problem affecting desktop browsers (at least Firefox and Chrome, on at least Fedora and MacOS). As an example, see this answer. The initial one line code block can be ignored. The problem occurs with the t...

(Maybe net votes weren't updated live when that argument was made?)
Feb 12, 2019 22:45
And if you're live updating net votes, it doesn't seem a significant extra effort to include the split each time
Feb 12, 2019 22:44
I'd be surprised if vote splits are a significant proportion of server load. I don't use them every time I look at a post
Feb 12, 2019 22:41
@DJMcMayhem Exactly. Either you can or you can't, and if you can, you shouldn't have to jump through hoops
Feb 12, 2019 22:40
> Congratulations on graduating, back to slow tag edits for you
Feb 12, 2019 22:39
Yes from what I recall I had to do a full edit for a tag change
Feb 12, 2019 22:38
@DJMcMayhem I agree. Seems like gamification for the sake of it
Feb 12, 2019 22:38
173 sites, 100 rep association bonus from 172 of them, that's 17,200 for free, which isn't much less than my network rep. I've been doing this all wrong
Feb 12, 2019 22:31
On my profile page my top meta post looks like clickbait:
"77 Things to avoid when writing challenges"
Feb 12, 2019 22:29
I should get there in about another 10 years
Feb 12, 2019 22:28
Maybe someone needs to write you a bounty bot
Feb 12, 2019 22:27
@Adám You're not leaving them up for 7 days to draw attention??
Feb 12, 2019 22:26
I wonder if the bounties offered by others will change size as a result - I can imagine it affecting the "exchange rate" of rep
Feb 12, 2019 22:23
@Adám I did notice your slew of donated rep for Best of PPCG - I thought I'd misread at first...
Feb 12, 2019 22:21
@DJMcMayhem By the way, did you mean "<40 posts"? I only have 20 answers :P
Feb 12, 2019 22:20
@DJMcMayhem My time invested per post is probably also disproportionately high, so it probably balances out...
Feb 12, 2019 22:19
@Adám Woah
Feb 12, 2019 22:18
I'm more of a challenge person than an answer person (I've posted more challenges than I've answered challenges)
Feb 12, 2019 22:16
I have a zero here on PPCG, so that's an upper limit :(
Feb 12, 2019 22:14
@DJMcMayhem Ah. Me too. I have an overinflated view of my minimum score then...
Feb 12, 2019 22:11
I just looked at the last page of questions and answers on the network profile page. I'm assuming that covers everything?
Feb 12, 2019 22:05
Oh good point. Yes let's exclude deleted posts
Feb 12, 2019 22:02
CMC/P: What's your lowest net votes on any post (Q or A) across all of SE (including SO, excluding metas)? Highest wins
Feb 10, 2019 21:36
Thanks for all the feedback. Posted now
Feb 10, 2019 21:31
Sounds like a laid back image approximation challenge
Feb 10, 2019 21:30
You clearly have tags firmly embedded in your mind :)
Feb 10, 2019 21:26
Kind of. They can only move single hops though. So the 2-mover is like a 1 square at a time bishop, and the 1-mover is like a 1 square at a time rook, but there's nothing that can make all of a king's moves in a single step
Feb 10, 2019 21:21
It does have a knight's move in it, but I thought the link might be too tenuous.
Feb 10, 2019 21:20
Not sure if it's too abstract for
Feb 10, 2019 21:18
I'd like more tags but trying to think of something more specific. Will have a browse
