My coworker just wrote this Python and I died a little inside

Wait image is too big

> str((int) (dist / 2000))

That is valid Python

lyxal

dist // 2000 to save a few bytes and drop the cast to int :p

f"{dist//2000}"

If you really want to golf

Try it online!

Alternatively, really commit to the bit and use (str) ((int) (dist / 2000))

Because you can also type cast to string

LOL

It even works more or less like they (seem to have) intended

I came here to say: I think I've become fully American. I've begun (mis)pronouncing my own name the American way when speaking inside my head, I have a craving for donuts, and the other day, I estimated the length of something in yards

I am willing to defend American English spellings and have started liking beef

Ok normally I wouldn’t be advertising my answers here but this new desmos recursion update is just so awesome, I just have to showcase it. Here is a desmos answer to Fibonacci swoosh: codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/272766/96039

Very cool, I did my original drawings for that challenge using desmos

It doesn't seem to be rendering properly on my end, is it just extremely laggy or is there something I'm missing?

Ah, "upwards of 30 minutes"

@emanresuA XD yea idk why it’s so slow

You can change [1…c] to like [1…20] to speed it up a bit if u really wanted to see it

Q: Is it a cartesian product?

The cartesian product of two multisets \$A\$ and \$B\$ is multiset of all ordered pairs consisting of an element of \$A\$ and an element of \$B\$. For example, the cartesian product of \$\{1, 2, 7, 1\}\$ and \$\{4, 6\}\$ is \$\{[1,4],[1,6],[2,4],[2,6],[7,4],[7,6],[1,4],[1,6]\}\$, where the order ...

I have no idea how jelly had the euler totient function but not outer product at that time

And also I find it deeply weird how many langs have the euler totient function as a builtin

SE API to be moved behind the CDN

Ginger

oh, chat's back

@lyxal how long have you known about this :p

lyxal

surprisingly only a day :p

Ginger

is this why you told me to hold off on the bot proxy

lyxal

yes :p

Ginger

I don't think it'll actually make a difference, though

since the bots never interact with the official API

1:04 PM

Ginger

unless you happen to have confirmation that they're going to unblock the server, which seems unlikely

lyxal

i do not

Ginger

thought so

I Super Don't Want to mess with the proxy, but having the bots dead is really bothering me

Q: My cat sat on my laptop, now the right side of my keyboard types the wrong characters

My cat sat on my laptop and now if I type either L or P, it inputs 3 or * instead. The rest of my keyboard still works correctly. The problem is bad enough that I had to use the touch screen of my computer to type this in. How can I restore the correct working behaviour of my keyboard?
