Have you seen (or written) a recent answer on Mi Yodeya that you thought was really great? Let's have a contest to help you tell everyone about it!

This contest has two phases: Nomination and Voting. It is currently in the Nomination phase.

  1. Nomination - ends March 29, 2020

    Post an answer to this Meta post containing a link to the Mi Yodeya answer you want to nominate. Answers created in Tevet - Adar, 5780 (from December 29, 2019 through March 25, 2020) are eligible (yes, including in-season Purim Torah answers).

    Please link to one answer in each entry. Nominate as many answers as you like in separate answers to this post.

    When you see a great answer, don't wait; post a link to it here before you forget!

    Please do not vote on any answers to this post during the Nomination phase.

  2. Voting - March 29 - April 5, 2019

    On March 29, this post will be edited to indicate that the Voting phase has begun, and the tag was added.

    During this phase, everyone is invited to vote on the answers to this post however you see fit. Upvote (or downvote, I guess) as many as you like.

300-point Bounty button

The answer linked in the highest voted answer to this meta post will receive a bounty of 300 points after completion of the event on April 5, 2020. In case of a tie, the distinction will be shared, and the prize will be split.

Concept and words borrowed from Movies.SE.

I’d like to nominate Heshy’s answer to my question. In under twenty minutes he took the initiative to hack together some Python code to compile the entire Shas Mishnayos and sort by initial letter of each Mishnah. Tizku l’Mitzvos, thank you for your tremendous help, and may we never know more sorrow.

    Amen and thank you! There was some serious siyata dishmaya at play here. I usually need a lot more iterations of debugging before my code works. – Heshy Feb 11 '20 at 15:30

I think this answer form Robev is very valuable, because it contains references to comments not well known, as the comment of Rabbi Avraham Abulafia.

Such answers are helpful for learning. Links are very allow to get texts quickly.
