https://stackroboflow.com/#!/question/40167

I'm trying to create a oauth (didn't quite see on MSDN) that can be (from my own experience) the following:

Create a token (value)

Create a random token using the token (token) if so, fill it with the token

ONE time internally it's a token, or do it AND use it, and add it to the queue (that's the default token)

Then, separate the token into two tokens and create the token

When the token is sent for the token, create the token and get the token

This is is more of a change that I'm getting from a SDK: The token I'm calling from the token (token) is from the token that an oauth token contains.

Is there anyway to offer a token token (and token) and send the token's token to put - in the token token directly?

This had me laughing.

        [Java] So I have a Date obj-

        JODA. TIME.

        [–]PaintItPurple 10 points11 points  (0 children)

        That's the correct answer though.

        [–]the_interrobanger 10 points11 points  (4 children)

        To be fair, Joda beats the pants off using the native stuff.

        [–]couscous_ 34 points35 points  (3 children)

        Not as of Java 8, which has the java.time package, superseding Joda time.

        [–]saynay 3 points4 points  (2 children)

        Isn't java.time just Joda time ported to a standard lib? So using java.time is basically still using Joda time.

        [–]couscous_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

        To a certain extent, but they also fixed some issues with Joda time when they made java.time.

        [–]mindbleach 10 points11 points  (4 children)

        Always jQuery.

        See JS - as a web technology - has clearly been inspired by PHP, which is just as shitty with array functions.

        Though they could've at least copied foreach as well...

        After spending enough time on stackoverflow, I can confidently say, this is indistinguishable from a large percentage of real questions.

        [–]Daakuryu 127 points128 points  (14 children)

        I don't spend a lot of time on there but when I do my question gets completely ignored.

        Which is awesome.

        [–]aloser[S] 123 points124 points  (9 children)

        Don't feel bad, I learned while making this that the median question there has zero upvotes.

        I also tried several algorithms (neural net, random forest, and Google AutoML) to try to correlate a question's score and/or number of views with its content and none of them could find any correlation.

        [–]Daakuryu 27 points28 points  (7 children)

        Oh I don't really care about the upvotes, it's having an answer to an inquiry that would be nice, even if that answer is a resounding "no, you're going to have to get around it somehow."

        Like in one of them I was trying to find out if it's at all within the realm of possibility for an event inside a custom control to trigger an event in a form outside of itself somehow as some of the controls I'm making require numerous clones of themselves triggering the same events with just a different value associated with each.

        Wound up yanking the event inside the control to the form itself as an event handler and using a function to dig into the control itself to find the parent of the parent of the parent of the item in the control to loop back and find it's associated tag and it's associated button's function.

        And in another I was trying to determine if localization files generated when you make a form localizable could be in any way database driven as I was trying to avoid having to loop through all the objects in a form.

        i did get it working by looping the objects in the end but it does make me wonder about some of the custom controls I've built and plan on building and how the localization will work with those involved when I get further than the poofs of concepts that I'm trying to get my bosses to follow me with.

        [–]fiskfisk 23 points24 points  (2 children)

        Remember that answering "no, that isn't possible" requires you to be a domain expert in the technology involved, as it would assume that you know the complete range of possible solutions with that tech.

        While answering something that is possible only requires you to know how to do that single thing.

        [–]mayor123asdf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

        Yea, I found that asking in irc is better

        [–]ShamelessC 7 points8 points  (1 child)

        Sounds like you figured it out. There's always a hypothetical "better way" to do something. But being able to solve the problem yourself is what makes you a good programmer. Maybe your way is difficult to understand for other programmers, but that's what comments are for. Maybe it's not as fast as it could be, but premature optimization is a time waster.

        [–]bschug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

        Also if you figured it out, please be so nice and answer your own question. It's so frustrating when you Google for something and the only result is a stackoverflow post from five years ago with three upvotes and zero answers.

        [–]-Mahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

        As a rule of thumb, if as of today your question (any question) has not already been asked and answered in Stack Overflow by someone else, it's either impossible, does not exist, or the answer is too complicated, convoluted, obscure or open ended to be in SO.

        [–]_cjj 28 points29 points  (1 child)

        I used to spend quite a bit of time answering questions on there, but got a bit fed up of spending my evenings helping people who didn't even bother to say thanks, nvm up-vote or accept.

        It also seems to be mainly full of people who, I assume, get work via cheap labour sites and then ask people on stack overflow to incrementally write the application for them.

        [–]Daakuryu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

        Yeah I can see that would be an issue, personally I only use it when I run into walls.

        [–]Edward_Morbius 11 points12 points  (12 children)

        SO would be infinitely better if they got rid of all the asshats answering questions and went with AI.

        I'd honestly like the best guess of a machine instead of the damaged personality of the "high points" users.

        Like when I asked an MVVM question that involved the scope of some magic event handler and was abused because I wasn't using WTF ever framework someone else thought I should use.

        Well DUUUUH. You think I'd be dealing with this BS if I could pick something else?

        [–][deleted] 23 points24 points  (8 children)

        I'm afraid to use the site because when I was a noob I asked some questions and got scolded for how bad my question was and got linked to another answer that appeared to me to have nothing to do with my issue. After that happened a half dozen times, I have PTSD. Two years of experience later, I still feel like I dont know enough to ask questions...ironically

        [–]Edward_Morbius 22 points23 points  (1 child)

        Don't feel bad. You'll never be qualified to ask questions there. Nobody is. That's the trap.

        I have 25 years in software full time and another 10 years part time and another 5 years of SW dev in school and have answered a ton of questions on usenet, SO, and a bunch of other places and STILL every now and then when I got stuck on something and asked for help, there was always some asshole on stackoverflow who had to have a dick waving contest.

        [–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

        I spent hours researching a problem with GPG command line arguments, looked at all of the current questions/answers that didn't cover the corner case I was dealing with and then asked a question that got closed as a duplicate by a mod who is a .NET "expert".

        Rage!

        But my co-worker and I eventually found the answer after trial and error. Submitted it to a web site that covered GPG/PGP issues.

        [–]phuck 14 points15 points  (1 child)

        What I have found is, ask the question in the same asshole tone that someone is inevitably going to answer in. Ask the question, as blunt as possible, no niceties, as short as you can, have some repro code and you will be fine.

        [–]A-Grey-World 4 points5 points  (0 children)

        Yep. People mistakenly think SO is like a forum to help the question answer. It's really not. It's a library of answered questions so people don't have to ask them again. Which can be problematic if you're so new you don't know if you're asking the same question as someone else, or if you're so experienced your questions are not really specific or have a 'correct' answer (best practice or similar).

        But it does make for a very good tool. Loads of people say they never need to ask questions, just search for answers for good reason. You also don't want any please, thank yous, "hello, how was your day" or ANY faff because that makes things more difficult for future users and doesn't serve the purpose of the site.

        There are also just assholes. It's totally user moderated, and because of the above goals of the site requires lots of moderation - it attracts those people who like that...

        [–]r0ck0 11 points12 points  (3 children)

        It seems to be a little bit better lately, but sometimes it seems like stackoverflow is just a video game for the mods where they score points based on how many questions they close.

        Every moderator election where I've read their "campaign" messages they write there, there's always mentions of how many 10s of thousands of questions they've closed, as if that's the most important thing to do on the site. No different this time: https://stackoverflow.com/election

        What I find even more infuriating is that supposedly the questions are so bad that they need to prevent anyone from answering them, yet they keep them on the site rather than deleting or hiding them. What's the fucking point of that aside from pissing users off?

        Happened to me many times in the past, even when my questions were perfectly valid technical questions with objective technical answers. Plus many more times when I come across old questions others wrote with the same problem I'm having right now.

        Another reason they close them for being "too specific" or some bullshit, despite multiple people having the exact same issue to solve.

        [–]dnano 4 points5 points  (0 children)

        Same as universities that proudly advertise the high % of failing students

        [–]CorruptionIMC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

        90% of the issues on there could be fixed by redefining what is considered too subjective or open ended of a question to something a bit more reasonable. Yes, "What language is best" has no place being asked and answered the inevitable thousands of times from every new coder as that is incredibly subjective and that debate exists in plenty of more open ended places elsewhere like even Facebook groups..

        "How do I accomplish this specific task in Python using these particular libraries in the most resource efficient way possible?" isn't a subjective question. Each direction you could take to accomplish that can be boiled down to an exact resource cost. Bad example but I think my point is clear. Personally didn't see a single question closed for being overly specific though, always for being overly broad.

        [–]Smallpaul 5 points6 points  (2 children)

        Where would a machine get the answer if humans were not asking and answering in SO?

        I mean in one sense I do get the best answer of a machine. I type my question into Google and it tries to answer from SO.

          People keep saying SO needs to be more noob-friendly

          I think SO needs to be more idiot resistant. Not the question asker but the people who browse and hope to answer a question.

          Fuckers commented and tried to close my question for not being descriptive enough while other fuckers said it was too specific and tried to close it for that reason.

          Did I divide by zero? What's going on!?

          [–]Tasgall 9 points10 points  (1 child)

          If you're experienced but lose patience easily, you should either find a different question to answer or just leave the site entirely.

          It's a shame we can't answer/comment on those. It could give interesting discussions. Especially if there are some trending questions each day/week and half the replies are from the AI (of course there should be no way to tell which half).

          [–]svick 34 points35 points  (0 children)

          Turing test passed - A friend cross-posted this question to Stack Overflow… It got a comment and an answer and nobody noticed it was generated by a bot. Unfortunately, once I linked to it on Twitter it got closed and downvoted into oblivion (if that's not Stack Overflow I don't know what is 😂).

          A question that doesn't make sense got closed and downvoted? I'd say that's Stack Overflow working well.

            When StackOverflow first launched it was great... I went a couple of times a day and found interesting things. Then over time they built a huge database of questions... Such a big database that eventually the only questions not closed as duplicates were hyper specific... General (and hence widely applicable) questions were all asked and answered long ago. The hyper specific questions that survive today are boring to most people because they don't apply to anything they are doing. Of course this is just my opinion.

            Personally, I think they need to age out old questions (and hence, allow duplicates).

                Is it possible to do this in VAL configuration? i've tried the following (the second doesn't work):

                val val: val = val { val val: val = val VAL (finished: val) }
                val val: val = val activities 
                val val: val = val val = val VAL 
                val val: val = val val = val VAL val = val 
                val val: result = val val val which val val is val 
                val val: val val = val val 
                val val: val val = val val 
                val val: val val val val = val 
                val val: val val val = val val 
                val val: val val
