| Jul 1, 2016 at 10:54 | comment | added | Henrik Pingel | @MichaelHampton got a good point. We should not create duplicates on SO. IMHO it would be best to delete the question which was posted later. But that would only work if SO acts the same way. | |

| Jun 30, 2016 at 14:23 | comment | added | Michael Hampton Mod | I wouldn't migrate a dupe to SO. They have so many posts incoming that they'll never notice it's a duplicate of anything. | |
