RAT display problems (updated)

on Nov 20, 2018 at 06:21 UTC ( [id://1226049]=monkdiscuss: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I’m currently seeing two problems in Recently Active Threads:

(1) Node Re: Making all nibble zero lower than the offset is displayed as having been posted “-164 seconds ago” (should be “6 hours ago”1).

(2) Node Perl 5 Forever, which I re-parented as per the consideration, is displayed as “U[napproved]” even though it is no longer a root node (and the node’s own display contains “Approve” and “FrontPage” buttons).

Update

  • I’m also seeing different “Created” times when I view this node via the “Nodes You Wrote” display.

Cheers,

1 or maybe “1 hour ago”? The display changes (erratically) when I refresh.

    Hi

    > (should be “6 hours ago”1).

    this was already discussed, probably in the CB. IIRC it's one of the new servers running in wrong timezone.

    > even though it is no longer a root node

    I think the vast majority of re-parented nodes are normally replies and the system is not capable yet to handle root nodes properly.

    It was me who considered this node, but I'd rather preferred to reap this kind of annoying "troll-fanboy-spam", alas this didn't seem covered by our policy yet.

    (Down-voting it seven times should help though ... ;-)

    The author knew that he should have replied, in case he tries this stunt again for his propaganda I'd suggest reaping. Quantity over quality shouldn't be accepted.

      this was already discussed, probably in the CB. IIRC it's one of the new servers running in wrong timezone.

      It was mentioned in my thread here in PMD too: Timezone wobble

        Time zone calculation math. Urgh! Tom Scott has a nice explanation/rant on this topic over on the YouTubes.

        tl;dr: Don't do time zone math, you'll go insane.

        perl -e 'use MIME::Base64; print decode_base64("4pmsIE5ldmVyIGdvbm5hIGdpdmUgeW91IHVwCiAgTmV2ZXIgZ29ubmEgbGV0IHlvdSBkb3duLi4uIOKZqwo=");'

    Node Perl 5 Forever, which I re-parented as per the consideration

    I don't know who/what went wrong, but... I've fixed the node.

    I reckon we are the only monastery ever to have a dungeon stuffed with 16,000 zombies.
