@AmithKK Not sure what you're referring to… I am an SE employee, if that's what you mean.

@SimonSheehan I think of "name" as a subset of "information"

@RebeccaChernoff I know, I know! I was just trying to get a feel for if these really are different things; if they are, no need for a meta q.

Question for the room: are separate tags really needed for part-id, piece-id, piece-information, and piece-name? If not, what would work for all/most?

Is that considered multi-tasking or parallel processing?

Don't add speaking engagements—just import from Lanyrd.

Well, Ubuntu said they needed their own site, and that's working pretty well for them.

@MichaelMrozek Go players—like Chess, Poker, MtG, and others—have said they would not participate on BCG :-(

Q: Is Stack Overflow a type of game?

JohnBI hope this question isn't perceived the wrong way. I am sincerely interested in hearing some of your thoughts about the title of this post. Sometimes, answering a question on Stack Overflow is an exercise in speed as well as accuracy. If you see a question that isn't answered yet, or doesn't ...

Q: Stackoverflow - The Game

SilenceStackoverflow is a good RPG so far with so called reputation (which I easily decrypted as being xp) But it can become a great RPG. It needs more emphasis every times you make a level. And there should be a few more levels. For example, split the 100 rep level into 2 levels. And there should be t...

@GeorgeEdison We agreed that a system message on SO made sense, and he thought a quote would be suitable, so I pointed him here and he grabbed one. Nearly every line of that speech is worth quoting at one point or another.

@VxJasonxV If Apple gave him credit for those nine years, why shouldn't we?

Which is why I think of it as 35.
Dori

One of those trivia questions—Jobs had more seniority than anyone else at Apple, because when Apple bought NeXT, his seniority there counted as well.

I'd think more like 33.

23? where's that from?

@AbbyΨ yep, no big deal

@AbbyΨ Ummm… Jeff and I discussed this one already… I'll forward the email on to you.

Which means that @msh210 can now issue invites as well.

FYI: Biblical Hermeneutics is now in private beta, and needs help from people who know Hebrew. You'll need an invitation to get in, though. If you didn't commit before the private beta, you can request an invite from anyone with access to the private beta — like, say, me — but first, make sure that your email address is correct on your J.se profile, as that's where I'll send invitations.

@IsaacMoses That is a different separate issue.
Dori
Sep 16, 2011 23:14
@IsaacMoses Right now, if you go to askdifferent.com, you're redirected to apple.se. They don't want that; they want it the other way around.
Dori
Sep 16, 2011 22:52
@IsaacMoses Well, the same people make both decisions, so I'd classify that as highly unlikely.
Dori
Sep 16, 2011 22:10
@yydl The emphasis from on high right now is on branding stackexchange.com, so sites officially moving to other domains is currently looked upon unfavorably. Which has displeased askdifferent.com, but what can you do…

Sep 16, 2011 22:05
People are used to .com—anything else is near-useless.

@IsaacMoses We are not anywhere near that size (sadly). I think there's only a single private company that does have its own TLD.

@HodofHod If we do, could someone let my mortgage company know? ;-)
