    +1 for downvote. It's really unfortunate when solutions that are problematic have lots of best practices upvotes.

    I rather like the idea of upvoting best practice comments, rather than directly upvoting a best practice, as having a solution voted best practice doesn't really do much for most folks.

    +1 for downvote. I've seen a lot of inappropriate "best practices".
    I think it's a really shame.

    What about the following alternative to downvotes: allow "Issue" comments on solutions.

    +1 for downvote.

    I don't think it's enough to just add a constructive comment to a bad solution that has a tonne of upvotes. I doubt if a large number of users even read the comments.

    I've only been a member for a day and already noticed the problem described by others here.

    I like the idea of requiring a comment for a downvote, and I like the idea of requiring one for an upvote too. I find the solutions disappointingly devoid of discussion, this may help.

    What about having a best practice upvote require either making a comment that's linked to the best practices upvote, or upvoting a best practices comment? I think that the best practice feature would be much more useful if we could see why a solution is considered to be using best practices.

    For what it's worth I don't think clever needs a similar system since it's usually self evident and it's not as important a vote as best practices.

    It's a joke. They just submitted enough times for the "random()" call to return 10, but they said their lucky number was 10 so it looks planned.

    Try it now.

    Do you want to mark this suggestion as resolved or whatever?

    correct. We did that to make caching easier, since we didn't want to send the data to the client if they didn't have permission to see it. You should be given a link to view the content, if not then its a bug.

    The issue that I was able to reproduce was related to using a naked domain. This should be resolved now.

    I agree the wording was incorrect, which I fixed, but I really think the solution setup and example test cases did make it clear what was being asked. At any rate, I fixed the wording.

  • Custom User Avatar

    Good idea. Added.

    Probably not to a noticeable degree, but theoretically, yes. It's probably more of a style thing, though; I always do this for katas. To me, it makes things nice and neat, having all as many of the variables reused, and hidden away in a closure.
