[02:53:42] <takyon> how would you hyphenate "$41 billion valued Uber"
[02:54:43] <chromas> As a non-editor, I'm thinking "$41-billion-valued Uber"
[02:54:54] <chromas> or $41b-valued
[02:55:30] <takyon> thanks

[03:11:40] <takyon> is it just me or is it possible for an editor to comment on a story before it's released
[03:12:06] <takyon> I've got a post comment box open on "Powdered Alcohol Banned in Six States" which isn't due for another 5 hours and 20 minutes
[03:35:22] <paulej72> I never tried, so I am not sure. I think it is normally bad form to do so if possible.
[03:39:02] <takyon> makes sense

[17:57:52] <cmn32480> I don't ahve a lot of time. am heading out to my MIL for dinner in about 10 min
[17:58:09] <janrinok> cmn32480: OK
[17:58:23] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: here also
[17:58:55] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: but don't worry about doing that unless you are rather unsure about a specific topic, the team will check it
[17:59:03] <cmn32480> I even started at the top of the queue mrcoolbp
[17:59:12] <mrcoolbp> yay!
[17:59:27] <cmn32480> ?me puts away his stool
[17:59:34] * cmn32480 puts away his stool
[17:59:54] <cmn32480> so noted mrcoolbp
[18:00:11] <cmn32480> Am I now sufficiently experienced to mark them to display as well?
[18:00:15] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: exactly
[18:00:22] <mrcoolbp> especially if they are a day out
[18:00:31] <mrcoolbp> even Lamx is still checking stories
[18:00:36] <janrinok> cmn32480: done - pretty poor subs this weekend but that is not our fault
[18:00:41] <mrcoolbp> and janrinok will do it even if he's not here sometimes
[18:00:48] <cmn32480> got it.
[18:00:57] <cmn32480> but on the up side... I made it home for Easter
[18:01:03] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: so don't stress. Even if it goes out un-checked, meh.
[18:01:08] <janrinok> good - go and enjoy it!
[18:01:17] <mrcoolbp> cmn32480: yeah go be with your wife!
[18:01:17] <cmn32480> waiting on wife to finish getting ready
[18:01:20] <mrcoolbp> ah
[18:01:35] <janrinok> do another 6 or 7 stories then.....
[18:01:39] <cmn32480> at least she didn't meet me at the door wiht a shotgun
[18:01:47] <cmn32480> yes Dad.
[18:01:54] <janrinok> lol
[18:01:54] <mrcoolbp> heh
[18:01:58] <cmn32480> I'll have to build them to do 6 or 7
[18:02:07] <cmn32480> queue is down to 3
[18:02:36] <janrinok> yeah - unfortunately, weekends can get like this. Then the community complain about the quality of stories.
[18:02:45] <mrcoolbp> heh
[18:03:28] <janrinok> and it probably will not pick up until lunchtime East Coast USA
[18:03:33] <cmn32480> when I get back after dinner, I'll check in and see what I can submit
[18:03:51] <janrinok> cmn32480: don't sweat it - enjoy your personal time
[18:04:08] <cmn32480> I am. Also getting ready to travel again tomorrow.
[18:04:32] <cmn32480> back Wednesday night this time.... a whole 4 days at home. Whatever will I do wiht myself?
[18:04:36] <janrinok> this is one of those occasions when you do what you can, and no more. Take a break and have time with the family
[18:04:53] <cmn32480> agreed.
[18:05:11] <cmn32480> i just have to be careful
[18:05:16] <janrinok> we have a much healthier team than we had a month back - we will manage
[18:05:20] <cmn32480> I was tickling my daughter this morning and she peed on me
[18:05:24] <janrinok> lol
[18:05:36] <janrinok> it's a sign of love, apparently
[18:05:37] <cmn32480> glad you think it was funny
[18:06:10] <cmn32480> ok kids... the wife is calling. y'all have fun today
[18:06:23] <cmn32480> Happy Easter to all, and to all a good night!
