If I try to "compare" revisions that a poster of a QA question makes, I can't see any comparable stuff.
Didn't I used to have a side-by-side display on which I could easily pickoff a line visually to denote an alteration in an origiinal?
Or have I been using WinDiff too much and my experiences have begun to bleed into brain parts unknown?

Seriously? No attending ... selfsuture then.

Yes it used to show you too nice divs with the changes highlighted. The whole revision system has been broken for some time.

Any reason to have it twice in the left menu in personal profile (one after "my bookmarks" and one after "comments made")?

I think you should improve the time to answer the question. All the question should be answered whether it is yes or no. Your answer will be very helpful and time saving for the guys asking the questions.

The people answering questions on this site are volunteers.
Nobody is under any obligation to answer your questions at all, let alone within a fixed time.
If you don't get an answer to your question, then consider editing it to add more information, a better description of the problem, the relevant parts of your code, the details of the errors you're getting, etc.

There is no staff here answering questions. Questions are answered by other users when they think it can be valuable. Answering is voluntary and none is getting paid.
If you got no answers to your questions, think about modifying them. Your two questions are very specific so that only users that have done similar can answer it. One is - at least for me - rather unclear.
Remember also that no one is getting paid here for answering and it is called "quick answers". So nobody will invest too much time to answer, rewrite your code, or write answers when they would become extensive.

Can you pls answer my keypoints question more in coding way, rather than just yes or no.
Thank you.

That's exactly what I did...
Do you see our point now?
Better to wait for a correct answer, than forcing an answer that brings no value to the question.
Don't you think?
Now your questions are not in the list of unanswered anymore and that will difficult even more that you get the answer your were looking for.
Please re-read slowly the other answers to your message. I hope you now understand better what they say, since you are now living the practical use-case that they were explaining you.

Now, there's an idea.
Instead of only answering a question - and removing it from the "unanswered" queue - when we fully understand what the OP is trying to ask (and trust, me that can take a Looooooong time with some of 'em) we could have the system automatically post an answer at random from other questions using (say) 50% of the same words.
It probably wouldn't be of any use to the OP, and it would mean that nobody would know which questions are waiting for a solution, but it would get the question answered quickly, which appears to be your priority.
Most people would rather have a considered response from a volunteer who knows what they are doing instead ...

The job of a potential QA participant (both questioner and answerer) is to make himself clear about some development/programming/coding point. Unfortunately, nearly all posters become overly verbose to make his work so.
If counterpoints posted as ANSWERS were only COMMENTS the solution to problems would be arrived at faster. As soon as the original poster, upon seeing his question become a target for commenting and not ANSWERING, adds an [EDIT] ... [END EDIT] section to his post, he is acknowledging some sort of understanding. He doesn't need to further the "conversation" as such until he gets something to work then.
The thing is, there's a token system here where rewards are meeted out for good work. Obviously there's nothing to deter bad work. The nature of bad work is it's badness alone.

What? You mean a time limit within which someone should answer? Sounds like a deadline. Feels like work.

Why?

Not really if I need to adhere to your first two points. Here's is what your first two sentences mean: I need to quickly answer a question if it is a simple yes or no. I doubt that will be helpful.

If you want faster time to answer, you should try paying services.

Yes or No is almost never the answer one expect.
Just an idea: dress yourself as an expert helper and read all questions, see how fast some are answered, see which ones are not answered. When a question get multiple answers, it usually mean that there is more than 1 problem in question.
Note that helpers are usually not expert in every language, framework, commercial product ...
An helper will only answer on what he knows.

Recently I've been constantly seeing the "Log off from other locations" button.
Could it be possible to see info about the other locations? Such as IP, browser etc.

Try now

Wow, that fast, thank you!
Any idea why 'other' session keep coming back? If I press the big red button and restart the browser, I see other sessions again. All of them coming from my IP but the sessions are started and expired long ago.
Ah, never mind, of course it's showing local time at the host.
So all good, thanks again!
