| Jul 24, 2013 at 14:35 | comment | added | Sklivvz | It's about an algorithm, not a software algorithm. The fact that the algorithm can be implemented in software has no relevance. | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 13:40 | comment | added | kojiro | @benisuǝqbackwards but why should "people in the algorithm tag tend to be more accepting"? Each StackExchange site has one and only one set of principles guiding what are and are not acceptable questions–It doesn't change from tag to tag. | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 13:06 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | @Ben yep, How to pair socks from a pile efficiently?. ;) | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 13:04 | comment | added | ben is uǝq backwards | I think there was something about socks as well @ShaWizDowArd :-). | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 13:00 | comment | added | ben is uǝq backwards | Partially agreed @Rosinante, I'm so depressed by the volumes that I've mostly given up. | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 12:59 | comment | added | ben is uǝq backwards | Yes @Mark, and as I said the people in the algorithm tag tend to be more accepting. You only notice it because it got a load of upvotes, because it's well asked... It seems strange to penalise someone for asking a question well when there are other questions out there. For instance, this is the most recently asked algorithm what's the difference? This is the fourth, what's the different? | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 12:53 | comment | added | Rosinante | I won't touch the close queue until the team takes any of the rational suggested steps to auto-close the bulk of the complete trash in there. It's not worth my time to read all that nonsense. | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 12:28 | comment | added | animuson StaffMod | If this is the stance the community ultinately takes, the answers that have nothing to do with programming whatsoever should be deleted (there's one that I know of so far). | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 12:26 | comment | added | Mark Booth | But it's not asking about a software algorithm, it's asking for a software algorithm recommendation and it fails on all three of the relevant points on the Stack Overflow question checklist. | |
| Jul 24, 2013 at 12:13 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | True, it also happened in the infamous "is user a goat" question which attracted lots of funny but totally non professional answers. | |
