Does pinging a user in a comment work when that user hasn't commented in that section?

Nope.

Dangit

The poast is a goat?

@QPaysTaxes I need to +100 that website

Argh, I dont know who to ping who knows Haskell except zgarb who pointed me to Learn You a Haskell, and nimi

@nimi I was wondering if there is a decent way to write the second algorithm in my Python answer t(n,k,q) in Haskell. I've been fiddling with foldl and ceiling and div for a few hours now, but I can't get it to work. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide

I don't think nimi's ever been to chat

@quartata your chat "about" still says "yes hello this is glider", even though you're not a glider anymore.

I'm still a glider

pikachu == glider?

@Zgarb See five messages above for Haskell question

spikey-eared pichu = mutated glider

@quartata oh, okay, I can definitely see the resemblance

Aww dangit, poi830 disallowed determinant. I could've answered that question in Minkolang...

Hmm. I do have row and column deletion, so technically I could re-implement determinant, but meh.

@El'endiaStarman Well, it's pretty straightforward with a determinant built-in.

I knowww...

I could have done $n7P to get the determinant, which would error if the matrix isn't square, which I can catch and proceed appropriately.

@quartata I don't understand why he allowed eignvalue builtins.

@Maltysen Did he?

my answer just replaced det with product(eigenvalues)

:P

@poi830 You know that the determinant of a square matrix is equal to the product of its eigenvalues right

yeah maybe i shouldnt

oh wait its not always a square matrix

i didnt even need to disallow determinant

I actually think you should allow these built-ins. Makes the problem a little more fun, in a way.

@poi830 Oh, I thought it was just 2D vectors?

it is

but its not always square

Oh, set of vectors.

I thought it was just two vectors.

You should probably sandbox this in the future.

Wooo Minkolang answer is now doable again!

\o/

@quartata what is this avatar?

@EasterlyIrk sleepy spiky eared pichu <3

do you main pichu /s

@quartata okai

@QPaysTaxes yeah

@QPaysTaxes Oooh, that URL is so close to having "lady"... :P

.....not sure if I should be proud or disapproving. :P

It's like, "Why, yes you're right, but what are you trying to imply?". :P

@El'endiaStarman all of your last 3 messages have ended with a ":P" :P

:P

it's cute how JavaScript thinks this will actually help me debug the problem

That means you have an infinite recursion

no, I don't

it means JavaScript is stupid

I have lots of function calls but no infinite recursion

…are you using recursion in your parser

no (kind of)

it works when you can raise the max stack size, but you can't in js

writing this in JS is probably the biggest programming mistake I have ever made

It's not too late to port

yes it is

I am not porting 38KB of code now...

Only once you start writing the stdlib is it too late, really.

@QPaysTaxes Even when you don't have an option it's still a bad idea.

@Downgoat How many lines?

how do I count?

@Downgoat interesting: stackoverflow.com/a/9828460/3184376

@Maltysen that was the first thing I googled and I found the same unheplful answer

@QPaysTaxes ಠ_ಠ

@Downgoat find -name *.es6 -print | xargs wc -l should do the trick.

@Downgoat Do you want to take a break from that?

are you sure this won't delete all my files?

yes

I have been trolled more than once into deleting lots of data in this room more than once...

console.log([A, B, C, D]);//start
console.log([B, A + B]);
console.log([C, C + B, (C + B) + (A + B)]);
console.log([D, D + C, (D + C) + (C + B), ((D + C) + (C + B)) + ((C + B) + (A + B))]);

2261 lines

I'm stuck as to the solution of this :( It's like a 2D reduce

@Downgoat I've ported worse.

I don't normally post my stuff in here in a "omg pls upvot" way, but omg so close to Reversal badge: meta.codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/8850/20469

@quartata to what language?

@Downgoat rm -rf /

@Maltysen ಠ_ಠ

you forgot sudo and --no-preserve-root

it makes all your code magically work

next time please troll correctly

@Downgoat well I didn't actually run it, so…

@Downgoat python

@Downgoat 3500 lines from LWJGL 2 to 3 which is close enough

@Maltysen yes, I dolphinetly believe you

setRecursionLimit

@quartata but that's not porting accrrosss languages

Hello @EasterlyIrk

Honestly it felt like it

They were so different in so many ways

@Downgoat hai

@AlexA. your R showcase needs updating

@quartata your avatar keeps making me think you're xnor for some reason...

@EasterlyIrk As do my Julia and Fortran showcases.

I would upvote but I can't

@AlexA. pls update

And my Minkolang showcase...

@El'endiaStarman do it now pls.

pls halp i suck at captcha much bad but no robot like alex

@EasterlyIrk I would halp but you being stuck at captcha obviously means you're an evil robot like Marky

hey

> but no robot like alex

that means mark by extension, because marky is alex

wait hold up I'll explain

@AshwinGupta no needs iz majik

@EasterlyIrk realy????

yah

So basically I'm writing a browser game for fun. I want the background to be animated (the lines moving towards the left) to give the appearence of the ship always moving. (Sort of like the hyper drive effect in star wars). I've written this code to make it work:

Alex hasn't showed any homicidal thoughts unlike Marky

@AshwinGupta cool, +10 for JS

github.com/niwhsa9/Space-War

cleaner version here ^

Oh okayy

@AlexA. you sneaky bastard

not very homicidal thought though
