Weekly Update 75: Abandoned Instant Answers, and Upcoming Meetup Events
Hello, hackers!
If you're in Philadelphia tomorrow, come and visit us in this month's Quack and Hack! Again, we're open for other Meetup group proposals!
In other news, we need your help to complete some Instant Answers that have been abandoned recently: Visual Studio Cheat Sheet, Calendar, and the Interactive BMI Calculator.
New Instant Answers:
- Constants by Roy van der Vegt
- Drinks by Burak Ozdemir
- And a lot of cheat sheets! SQL (by Jobin Abraham), Open Stack (by Mohan Pawar), Python (by Ethan Chiu), Indian Languages (by Sinwar), Country Codes (by Ferenc Németh), CSS (by Ethan Chiu), WordPress (by Matthew Ramina), Age of Empires II (by jarroddunne), Emoticons (by vabaimova), Magit (by Andrew Gwozdziewycz), GitHub (by Rahiel Kasim, Toontown (by Startomas), and Kerbal Space Program (by Jami).
Specific Heat
Show the specific heat of a substance.School Data
Display current students, tuition, etc. about a certain school.Dinosaur Locations
Give information about where a certain dinosaur lived or where their fossils were found.
Random Words: Change title and template
Title and template should be different for single word results.Timer: Triggering on "countdown.js"
This Instant Answer triggers on the query "countdown.js". We need to make sure we check the query to ensure there is a relevant remainder.PeopleInSpace: Should show up as the default
The tab doesn't show up first for the query "people in space".
Calculator: Negative explonents are calculated incorrectly
"e" is interpreted as the mathematical constant, not the exponential notation.Cheat Sheets: Triggering on 'currency symbol'
The Goodie triggers with the word 'symbol', which can make the results of these queries a bit confusing.Sunrise/Sunset: Improve triggering
There are other query forms that it could trigger in.
Have a Happy Halloween!
