Jul 16, 2019 at 4:56 comment added Raphael Hehe, indeed. The next similar post from SE staff, i.e. one asking for "what can we change?" gets a duplicate vote for me. Not only is that now [meta] works (right?) but it's also true.
Jul 15, 2019 at 5:43 comment added Bhargav Rao And another full year went by after @Raphael's comment. Looks like there's some work done on the first post, related to the Ask Question Wizard.

Jul 5, 2017 at 6:16 comment added Shadow Wizard @Tim with all due respect (and there is respect, lots of it actually :)) the people who posted here wasted their time, and that's a fact. Proof? Let's take the top answer here, with 399 upvotes, posted almost year ago. You did post a promising comment, but those 3 weeks you mentioned turned into over 8 months now. So Robert has the full right to feel he wasted his time. I do not blame you. I do not blame anyone. Just stating the facts here.
Jul 5, 2017 at 6:06 comment added gnat @ShadowWizard maybe it's just not yet time to take a stand on these matters
Jul 4, 2017 at 12:12 comment added user50049 Nobody wasted time here. More announcements coming this week as things move forward.
Jul 4, 2017 at 9:17 comment added Raphael @ShadowWizard As in, we all wasted our time (it may never happen, or things may be obsolete when it happens). Way to go! Next time, if you ask for several man weeks (?) of community feedback, please make plan beforehand on how you'll close the loop. Thanks.

Oct 30, 2016 at 19:51 comment added Mast "We plan to test a new, 'guided' version of the ask question page soon. This page would essentially break down all of the elements that make a great question, and give the user plenty of guidance as to why it's to their advantage to understand what's needed in each of them, and provide it." Will this be adjusted per site, like the current help/on-topic, or SE-wide the same?
Oct 29, 2016 at 23:25 comment added Scott M. Stolz One thing that frustrates me is doing a search (here or on Google or Bing), and coming to a Q/A page, and the question is closed without an answer, and I have the same question. Sometimes the question is closed because it's a duplicate. In that case, more obvious links to the answer would be in order or perhaps a merge like Quora does. Other times moderators simply just don't like the question, and so I leave and look at another website that has the answer. In this case, the question probably should not have been closed. There needs to be a better way to handle questions moderators don't like.

Oct 18, 2016 at 20:19 comment added user50049 @Andy I'll be making another post (why does it always sound like I'm planning another child when I say that?) shortly, with links to the papers. As they're published and in accordance with the university policy, they're unencumbered, or in essence a simple artifact of prior art. That was a very specific question that I asked, and the answer delighted me :) They very much plan for us to use what they've come up with if the data validates, along with anyone else that might benefit from it.

Oct 18, 2016 at 2:55 comment added Adam Lear StaffMod @Robotnik If you can report the bug in a general way (that is, no revealing any user's identifying information including usernames, user ids, emails, etc etc), reporting on meta is fine. If that's not possible, please report via the "contact us" form.
Oct 18, 2016 at 2:46 comment added Robotnik @TimPost - Is this the right place to raise current bugs to do with mod tools/mod pages or is it specifically more feature-request-y? Come to think of it should I be raising mod-bugs publicly at all, or with the SE team directly? (Either way what I've got is likely a quick-win)

Oct 17, 2016 at 20:54 comment added Rand al'Thor A TL;DR at the top of this post would be great. Not everyone has time to read such a long meta post, but they may still have something useful to add to the discussion.

Oct 17, 2016 at 20:30 comment added Sue Saddest Farewell TGO GL Thanks to everyone for all of this work. It's really exciting! This is extremely minor, but in the bullet point about the new version of the ask question page, there appears to be either a typo or grammatical error in the second sentence. I think "...elements that make a great questions..." was meant to be something else!
Oct 17, 2016 at 20:27 comment added user50049 @Knu Think about it a little more. It'll come to you, and has very little to do with AI or NLP :)

I am curious as to how you are gonna accomplish that. Grading the difficulty of a problem often requires to understand it first. If an AI can do that, I am scared.

Oct 17, 2016 at 17:06 comment added user50049 @ThomasOwens The majority of this will apply to the whole network, some of it will need merit for it to be turned on (similar to requiring registration to ask). We'll build it in a way that Software Engineering could take advantage of (or Ask Ubuntu, Math / Math Overflow / etc). (all provided it tests as well as we think it will).
Oct 17, 2016 at 17:05 comment added user50049 @Catija Any FR where the end result is someone having a better experience learning how to use the site, or where existing users have a better experience of new users getting to know the site. But that's not iron-clad, if you think something belongs here, it probably does. We'll read every single one and sort them, and let folks know what we came up with / why.
Oct 17, 2016 at 17:03 comment added Thomas Owens How much of this will be Stack Overflow-centric? For example, a guided Ask page will probably be great on ---Programmers--- Software Engineering, especially given the confusion in scope and recent name change (meant to fix the confusion in scope).
Oct 17, 2016 at 17:01 comment added Catija What makes a FR a good fit for this project? I've looked at the other six questions with this tag and I'm not quite sure what sets them apart.
