Is there any way for normal people to grab a list of all posts on a site deleted as spam/offensive (presuming I have privileges to view them)? All routes I've explored are dead ends:  Archive.org data dump: Does not include deleted posts. SEDE: Drops body text from deleted spam/offensive posts. API: Does not appear to include deleted posts. Scraping results from  () by including authorization cookies in the requests: Even with 5 second request intervals (giving a 38 hour ETA on Stack Overflow, for example), logs me out after a few dozen requests (presumably either heavy rate limiting or some sort of automated request protection, or the tokens in the acct cookie are periodically invalidated). I had tried with 3 second intervals, then 5, then gave up as I didn't want to press my luck with this one. The developers of various spam detection bots were kind enough to share their existing databases with me but we ran into staleness, completeness, and Unicode-related issues.  Is there a polite, acceptable way to do this? I'd like to build a database of spam/offensive posts for some pattern analysis.
I'm looking into running a machine-learning project on EL&amp;U to detect low-quality posts. To do that, I need a large dataset - and to get that, I need to get the text from a large number of deleted questions.   I can't use the API; deleted posts aren't included in it. I can't use SEDE: the PostsWithDeleted table lists NULL for the Body field of deleted posts. I can't script it: not only do I have insufficient reputation on EL&amp;U, but I also managed to get myself rate-limit-blocked while testing a script on Hardware Recs.   So, how else can I get this data?
Network-wide HTTPS: It's time Pandemic, Global Epidemic, Epidemic, Endemic I really want to hear from the experts the definitions of all 4 terms especially whether global epidemic is equivalent to pandemic. Or should this question be directed to the epidemiologist?   Pandemic Global Epidemic Epidemic Endemic   I have Googled the terms and I understand the definition of 1), 3) and 4). In short the definition is based on geographical location and scale of outbreak, Pandemic is an outbreak of disease on a global scale (e.g. HIV). Epidemic is an outbreak of disease on a localised area. Endemic is a disease in a localised area. However, a definition for Global Epidemic is not available online.  Recently, WHO mentioned that "“It is important to put this on the table: this virus(Covid19) may become just another endemic virus in our communities, and this virus may never go away,” WHO emergencies expert Mike Ryan told an online briefing." Isn't covid19 considered a pandemic since it is on a global scale and is spreading rapidly?  Another term that I come across often is Global Epidemic. For example in the WHO website, HIV is listed as Global Epidemic. Does that mean Pandemic and Global Epidemic are the same? Can you explain Parzen window (kernel) density estimation in layman's terms? I'm trying to wrap my head around how SQL Server decides to grant certain rights based on a users login privileges.  If a user is part of a group "READ ONLY" which has access to DB1, but they are also a part of a group "SysAdmin" which has full db owner rights to the same DB1, which rights are they given when they log in?  On a similar note. What if they are part of a group but also have a standalone account with other middle of the road privileges? In Delphi, is TDataSet thread safe? I'd like to be able to open a TDataSet asynchronously in its own thread so that the main VCL thread can continue until that's done, and then have the main VCL thread read from that TDataSet afterwards. I've done some experimenting and have gotten into some very weird situations, so I'm wondering if anyone has done this before.  I've seen some sample apps where a TDataSet is created in a separate thread, it's opened and then data is read from it, but that's all done in the separate thread. I'm wondering if it's safe to read from the TDataSet from the main VCL thread after the other thread opens the data source.  I'm doing Win32 programming in Delphi 7, using TmySQLQuery from  as my TDataSet descendant. How often is $1+\prod_{k=1}^n p_k$ not prime? How to restore Windows 7 MBR without a CD How do I detect the direction of 2D rectangular object collisions? Why isn't this sudo mv operation with wildcard working? How do I split a string by a multi-character delimiter in C#? Scenario  I created a journey with a Contact Data entry event that is triggered via the API. A subscriber should be able to be injected multiple times and the values in the data extension are updated while the subscriber is in the journey. The updated values should determine the path the subscriber follows.  Setup  As changed data needs to be evaluated and the contactkey cannot be used as primary key, I added a random id as primary key and created an attribute group for the data extension in Data Designer. The data extension is linked to the contact's contactkey using a one-to-many relationship as a contact should be able to enter the journey multiple times.  In the journey I'm using a decision split that is configured to use contact data from the created attribute group and has two branches (as it checks a boolean value).  Problem  For multiple entries the decision split doesn't evaluate correctly and always leads to same branch (value equals false). I suppose the problem is that journey builder doesn't use the primary key to identify the correct row in the data extension. Is there any way to make sure the row is matched using this id and not the contactkey as this leads to some strange behaviour as described here: Does anyone know how to remove this dead bolt that has no screw heads to use a screw driver? Here's a picture below. Object glitching/dissapearing in render due to parenting problems I have completed my animation but I realised when I render it that one of the propellers blades starts to glitch. On some frames it is in shot and some it is out of shot and this is really strange. These 'blades' are both parented to the same 'propeller' and the 'propeller' is parented to the middle ball. I have baked the animation through so this shouldn't be a problem. These propellers are passive rigid bodies. I have tried to figure out this problem and I just can't get to a solution. I've never had it where a rigid body object glitches out like that in the rendered animation, it's almost like it's jumping, which on the render these frames show the object as invisible. The video attached will show.   If anyone has experienced problems like this or knows an answer to my dilemma that would be greatly appreciated, thanks! The force of gravity is constantly being applied to an orbiting object.  And therefore the object is constantly accelerating.  Why doesn't gravity eventually "win" over the object's momentum, like a force such as friction eventually slows down a car that runs out of gas?  I understand (I think) how relativity explains it, but how does Newtonian mechanics explain it? When / how should I ask about a manuscript's status in review? Induction problem: "if the group has at least one player who is better than Messi, then all the members of the group are better than Messi" Reason for the discreteness arising in quantum mechanics? What is the most essential reason that actually leads to the quantization. I am reading the book on quantum mechanics by Griffiths. The quanta in the infinite potential well for e.g. arise due to the boundary conditions, and the quanta in harmonic oscillator arise due to the commutation relations of the ladder operators, which give energy eigenvalues differing by a multiple of $\hbar$. But what actually is the reason for the discreteness in quantum theory? Which postulate is responsible for that. I tried going backwards, but for me it somehow seems to come magically out of the mathematics. I would be happy to get some hints on the following integral: $$ \int_0^1\frac{x^{19}-1}{\ln x}\,dx $$ Activity Monitor in Mavericks "Show Memory Usage" dock icon gone? I just purchased a new MacBook Pro with Mavericks installed and noticed that Activity Monitor doesn't have the "Show Memory Usage" dock icon option anymore.  I really liked this option since I used it to prevent disk swapping by closing applications when I had too many open.  What gives? I have two user profile fields "Last Name" and "First Name". I also have a user list views. I want to expose "Name" as filter which can search for both Last Name and First Name. How can I do single filter of combination of those two fields? Can I create it from views UI?  One possible way is to create another profile field "Name" which will be hidden in the form. On user save, I would combine the two field values into the "Name" field and then expose it as filter in the views. But this solution is hard coding and it needs to write hooks.
