Slightly offtopic: this thread showed up as dead earlier today. Was it resurrected?


Yeah, an editor must have killed it. But it seemed harmless enough so I unkilled it.


You must be new here. Links on the site fall off the stack eventually--but when you reload the page, new ones are made. It's a "feature" of the architecture pg used to build the site (continuations based).

So, if you sit idle on any of the comment pages for more than a few minutes it becomes unavailable. You have to start over on the main page and dig your way back down. I imagine this is not a fundamental flaw of a continuations-based design, since Seaside seems to cope with it OK (I guess?)...merely something that pg, or someone else, has not added the code to handle yet.


No, no. I mean the title of the article ended with "[dead]".


I must be new here. I've never seen that happen.


Go to your profile, and change 'showdead' to 'yes'.


It sounds confusing. I think I'll leave it alone.


Speaking of being new, it's ironic that both your accounts are the same age.


Ironic, or suspicious?
