In my opinion it would look cleaner if the comment images/buttons were only shown when hovering over the comments (on desktop). Why are they always shown?
I just saw now that a new build had rolled out in which the comment upvote and flag options are always visible. Previously, one had to mouse over the area in order to see them.  Why was this just changed? Is it to support touch screens? I'll admit, it was difficult to find the flag button using my touchscreen laptop running Microsoft Edge.  Cross-site duplicate on MSO:

I wanted to know the difference between "by the year 1582" and "in 1582". How to distinguish between gold, silver, and bronze tag badges on SEDE? How can I distinguish between the levels of , say , querying ? For example, Mr. Jon Skeet has all the gold, silver and bronze badges for LINQ, so the query select * from Badges b with (nolock) where     b.Name = 'linq' and b.UserId = 22656  returns 3, with no distinction between them. Is it possible to include such information into the dump, for example, keep a unique badge ID (40 for the gold  badge)? How to disable Chrome's Incognito Mode? When I cd a link, my current path is prefixed with the link's path, rather than the path of the directory the link links to.  E.g.  ~/dirlinks/maths$ ls -l logic lrwxrwxrwx 1 tim tim 71 Jul 27 10:24 logic -&gt; /windows-d/academic discipline/study objects/areas/formal systems/logic  ~/dirlinks/maths$ cd logic ~/dirlinks/maths/logic$ pwd /home/tim/dirlinks/maths/logic  ~/dirlinks/maths/logic$ cd .. ~/dirlinks/maths$   I would like to have my current path changed to the path of the linked dir, so that I can work with the parent dirs of the linked dir as well. Besides ls the link to find out the linked dir, and then cd into it, what are some simpler ways to accomplish that? For example, after cd into a link, how do you change your current path to the path of the linked dir? On the importance of the i.i.d. assumption in statistical learning Calculate sum of series $\sum \frac{n^2}{n!}$ I have to calculate sum of series $\sum \frac{n^2}{n!}$. I know that $\sum \frac{1}{n!}=e$ but I dont know how can I use that fact here.. I would like to understand how Physicists think of space-time in the context of String Theory. I understand that there are $3$ large space dimensions, a time dimension, and $6$ or $7$ (or $22$) extra dimensions, and all these dimensions need to fit together in a way such that the extra dimensions are compactified (with a Calabi-Yau or $G_2$ structure).   My question, however is not about the possible $10$, $11$ or $26$ dimensional manifolds that may be possible, but about whether string theorists consider space-time as somehow quantized (or discrete), or rather as a continuous manifold, or are both options possible? In other words, can strings move continuously through space, or are there a discrete set of locations where strings can be, and does string theory rule out one of the options?  How about the same question in loop quantum gravity (LQG)? Should I think of the spin networks in LQG as describing a discrete space-time?

Related: What are the proper uses of:   static_cast dynamic_cast const_cast reinterpret_cast C-style cast (type)value Function-style cast type(value)   How does one decide which to use in which specific cases? I am developing an application and can not figure out a proper abstract term that would fit an interface that defines an object as Movable and Resizable (In essence, something that has a defined size and defined position). Calling it Movable and resizable is kind of silly. Layout was a term that came to my mind but it is not good as layout is something that is responsible for defining position and size, not containing it. Thanks a lot. Why is orbital angular momentum not 0 when spin and linear momentum are not collinear?   Why can it be 0 when spin and linear momentum are parallel?  Like in the example of a scalar field at rest decaying into an electron and a positron via interaction $\frac{1}{2}g\phi \bar{\Psi}\Psi $   If spin is along x axis and three-momenta is along z axis, decay rate will be 0 if two spins are opposite because orbital momentum is not 0 after decaying. Where are the evolutionary "inbetweeners"? The problem I've always had with evolution is the actual lack of variation between animals. More specifically, the lack of observable gradual change between species.  Take for example the hammerhead shark. It obviously has a strong connection with a normal shark, but where's the "half-hammerhead" shark? Where's the species that only has a SLIGHTLY wider head?  I really doubt that a single mutation on a normal shark resulted in a head shaped like that, it had to happen gradually. Right? As far as I understand, evolution works by random mutation in a child being somehow slightly beneficial to that animal so it get's to live longer and reproduce more, eventually resulting in it's genetic material in dominating the inferior ones before it. But if it was for whatever reason beneficial to have a slightly wider head, why don't all the sharks have slightly wider heads now? On the other hand, if it wasn't beneficial, how come the hammerhead still exists?  Furthermore, I feel like some characteristics of a certain animal can't really have gradual benefits. There's a lizard that shoots blood out of it's eyes. The original ancestor certainly didn't, and I'm sure that if it's child only bled slightly from it's eyes it wouldn't really help if much in life. So for it to actually become beneficial, it seems to me that there had to be a ton of lizards that had a disadvantage of bleeding slightly. In fact, there had to be so many that they evolved even further in the same direction and kept doing that until they bled so much it's an actual benefit (sorry for this turning so gross). So why did the inbetweeners survive long enough to evolve even more, and why did they THEN die out?

Thanks in advance Please provide a way to download SEDE data via an API I recently suggested on the Stack Apps site that , and it was suggested I reference the feature request here, for visibility.  My use case is a query that the API does not support, so I thought it would be interesting to get it programmatically from SEDE instead. I wonder if this feature might be of interest to others here?  outlines the current ways that SE data is available via various APIs and UIs.  I wonder if my use case (retrieving revisions filtered by user) might have been supported by OData,  since April of this year.  This question has sort-of , though that was not an explicit feature request, and is now rather out of date. It would be good to find out what the current views are on this topic, and indeed whether there is much demand.  My use-case does not urgently require this, since I can use public SE screen scraping or SEDE CSV downloading. From reading around the SE Meta network, both of these approaches seem to be tolerated, as long as it is done with careful regard to frequency and bandwidth.
