Q: Truncate consecutive character runs to n length

TestSubject06Disclaimer I know that questions that require a specific language are generally discouraged, but we had someone attempt a golf answer during an interview, and we wanted to know just how crazy it could get. The challenge Given an input string, and an integer n - truncate any runs of consecutive...

 
@VTCAKAVSMoACE Whoa, the server rules are formed in a form of software license? :O
 
@VTCAKAVSMoACE even Hypixel dont have a EULA like this .__.
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 Yeah, and it outlines rules for decision-making by the server.
@TùxCräftîñg Dunno why. It's clear, concise, and it outlines the rules and punishments for the server.
 
If I had a chance to design server rules, it would be the three main words: "don't be rude".
 
"Do sh*t, get hit".
 
3:03 PM
Being rude includes griefing, personal attacks, etc.
@mınxomaτ heh
Nailed to the bing.
Offenders obviously get suspended, from periods from 30 mins (inapproriate content in chat)... to 9999 hours (if the server accepts one) or 365 days.
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 (read section 3b)
 
@VTCAKAVSMoACE Of the Templex EULA?
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 Ye

Q: Interpret Kipple!

GLASSICIntroduction Kipple is a stack-based esotric programming language , invented by Rune Berg in March 2003 . Kipple has 29 stacks , four operators , and a control structure Stacks The stacks are named a-z and contain 32-bit signed integers. There is also a special stack, @, to make outputting n...

 
> So yeah, Mojang are going to make every server have no option to vote for ig rewards. They have already sent emails to various server and are going to keep sending them. Unbans have also been made non Eula. Hopefully this doesn't affect Hypixel too much and other servers can keep running.

found this in Hypixel forum :(
 
3:10 PM
All of the Arqade questions on HNQ today are about Pokémon Go
unsurprisingly
 
@VTCAKAVSMoACE What did you mean? The server might suspend offenders democratically?
 
29 questions tagged pokemon-go on the arqade main page ._____.
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 Yeah, so, we decide by democratic process on the level of punishment whenever a problem occurs that we feel should be punished but isn't on the EULA.

3:17 PM
@BusinessCat Yep, that's what happens whenever a new popular game gets released. For the last month or so, it's been Overwatch dominating Arqade HNQ.
 
@mınxomaτ truly beautiful
My local game store sells those hats, maybe I should get a new profile photo with one ;P

Heyyyyy @charredgrass
It's not very effective...
 
Stop taunting me, I want to play Pokemon Go but no servers here :P
everyone's talking pokemon today
 
3:26 PM
@charredgrass You don't need a server.
 
I would play if I had a halfway decent phone.
 
You only need the device.
 
There are 0 pokemon and 0 poke-stops on my map.
 
I got it 4 years ago and it was already an old phone back then.
 
It works on my S4 and S5, except for the no Pokemon thing
 
3:28 PM
My phone runs Android 2.3.6. Very few things work on it.
 
Oh wow

Wait...
 
zyabin101 used GREET!
 
3:30 PM
I'm at 9997 rep!
 
.___________.
 
Heyyyyy @LegionMammal978
 
nice!
 
Apparently I haven't spoken on here in 120 days
 
3:31 PM
I will upvote one of your answers
 
It has no effect...
 
Wait, it's lying, I only have 8k rep on PPCG
 
.____________.
 
LegionMammal978 retreated!
 
@LegionMammal978 alternate solution, use JS and get an even worse response if dividng by 0
 
3:31 PM
The rest must be from SO/Puzzling
 
ah
still like 7.7k more rep than me on ppcg
 
why so many troll on JS .__.
 
@charredgrass I'm implementing an arbitrary-precision rational type for Cheddar, that's part of the constructor
 
Oh cool
 
There now you have 9000 (unless you already got 200 today)
 
3:32 PM
Cheddar looks quite intersting
 
Good morning TNB!
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan good morning ._.
 
Considered making a rational ComplexInfinity, decided that I'm too lazy
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan Good morning part of TNB!
 
That's actually super neat
 
3:33 PM
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan cough time zones.
 
@BusinessCat But just 1k more rep!
 
But it's 18:33 here.
 
17:33 in france
 
But it;s23:33!
 
3:33 PM
11:33 in eastern U.S.
 
@charredgrass 23:33 here.
 
I am french too :)
 
Or, as we say it here, 11:33 AM
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 Make up your mind :P
 
3:34 PM
@mınxomaτ (here means where you live.)
 
@mınxomaτ I know. I can still say food morning though. :)
 
3:34 in UTC
:D
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan food's always good
 
I'm too lazy to fix the typo.
 
@Poke 15:34 it is >_>
(in 24 hours, if you're 12 hours, you're right)
 
3:35 PM
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan What typo. Nothing wrong there ;)
 
well i was using a 12 hour clock
also i'm in EST
 
^^ and ^
 
I'm in MSK
 
but a long as we're all using time we may as well use utc
 
Food morning sounds pretty good, but coffee morning sounds better. :D
 
3:36 PM
what's with that recent PPCG challenge - "only standard javascript (ES5)"
 
@Poke Gregorian, Julian, or lunisolar calendar?
 
standard JS is ES6 .____.
 
I never would have cared about UTC until I became addicted to SE. Now I sorta know it.
 
@charredgrass A language-non-agnostic challenge.
 
3:36 PM
exactly
who would do that
 
These challenges are discouraged.
 
I don't know nearly enough JS to know what is in ES5 and not in ES6
 
Wouldn't that fall under disallowing arbitrary (classes of) languages?
 
gregorian o.o
 
@charredgrass it's on-topic but low quality. Downvote and move along.
 
3:37 PM
@TùxCräftîñg Every ES version is a standard.
Literally.
 
and limiting to es5 is basically just making most programs a little bit longer
 
Ah ok @DrGreenEggsandIronMan thanks
 
@LegionMammal978 yes it would, but that's not off-topic, just discouraged.
 
most people are going to just be using arrow functions and a few other things to shorten
 
3:38 PM
hi
 
Hello easterly!
 
arrow functions are fun bc they look way cooler than normal function declarations
 
hello
 
3:38 PM
Hello.
 
TIL contrary to the internet, cheese fondue does not help with a cold. :/
@mınxomaτ Hi.
@anOKsquirrel Hi.
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 hello.
@BusinessCat Hello.
 
The time is now 2016-07-08T15:40:00Z
 
is GolfScript still usable?
 
@LegionMammal978 Bot?
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 No, just reducing ambiguity ;)
 
3:40 PM
It is exactly 1467992412575
 
Not anymore
 
shit
it is now 1467992454023
 
not anymore
 
I thought time stamps are 10 digits long, without milliseconds.
 
@charredgrass But... but... it isn't RFC-3339-compliant!
 
3:41 PM
JS Date.now() :P
 
@mınxomaτ the most recent standard is ES6
 
@VTCAKAVSMoACE can i adopt this for a server I use with my rl friends?
 
@charredgrass JS, 6 bytes: Date()
 
@TùxCräftîñg So what? All standards are still standards.
 
@charredgrass if you're looking to learn a golfing language, you should learn V. That way I won't be the only user anymore. :)
 
3:42 PM
that is my console
wat
 
Friday?
 
It's Friday
 
Well, it is Friday, so...
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan That V answer actually makes me want to learn it
 
my console has 306 of the error: master-chat.js?v=93619071bb89:6 Uncaught TypeError: t.data.replace is not a function
 
@charredgrass \o/ woot woot!
 
thanks SE chat
 
@LegionMammal978 lewd
 
There used to be a v room but then it got locked for inactivity. -_-
 
3:44 PM
How do you click the sayit-button? From the JS console?
I'm going to try a small snippet of code in the Sandbox.
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 use jQuery
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 $('#sayit-button').click()
 
Jul 2 at 18:13, by LegionMammal978
@MartinEnder Whajya tajling ajojj?
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 $('sayit-button').click()
you don't need the #
 
I think that's the first time I've told someone to use jQuery and it was actually a valid solution to use jQuery
 
3:45 PM
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Danke schön :3
 
@charredgrass .__.
 
I prefer document.querySelector('#sayit-button').click()
 
Me too
Also wouldnt it be $('#sayit-button').click()
 
@anOKsquirrel jQuery assumes ID search by default
 
3:47 PM
^
 
It does? Neat!
 
I did not know this
 
But yeah, document.querySelector can use any CSS selectors and doesn't require jQuery!
 
I mean
jQuery can do the same but just as good
 
So you can do things like document.querySelectorAll('* [id]') to retrieve all nodes with an ID attribute
(Useful for finding anchors for hashtag links)
 
3:50 PM
hi cool people
 
hey
are you also cool?
 
wasn't talking to you
 
> This sounds really complicated and convoluted. But this is an esoteric programming language, so get used to it.
 
._.
im sad now
 
One the V Esolang page
 
3:51 PM
:p
 
>Windows and OS X are not yet officially supported
 
@BusinessCat there's a V esolang page?
 
welp time to whip out the ol VM
 
Oh. There is. Not the one I was hoping for.
 
Guess it is a different V.
 
3:53 PM
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan hahahaha I was confused too at first
 
@Quill PHP is pretty gud but I don't think it's worthy enough to be the one language to rule them all and in sockets bind them
2
 
I guess I'll just have to make my version of V more popular.
 
I nominate brainf***
 
Nah.
 
3:55 PM
i do too
 
It's turing complete so it's just as good right??
 
what are we nominating things for
 
@MitchSchwartz Well of course you'd say that :PP
 
Or rename it.
 
3:55 PM
honestly it's easier to write bf code
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan this V? github.com/DJMcMayhem/V
 
Well, this was fun. First answer on PPCG.SE in Perligata.
 
hey cool we've got royalty in chat
anna from frozen
 
Help, I'm golfing code that definitely shouldn't be golfed
 
4:01 PM
isn't that the best kind
 
^
@MitchSchwartz o_O
 
@charredgrass See: me writing Java in APCS.
Except that class is over and I can't annoy the teacher with massively shortened code now. :c
 
@charredgrass Lemme guess... SQL golfing?
 
we should devise some language that somehow doesn't allow programs less than a billion bytes long, and then try to golf in that
 
@MitchSchwartz So basically Unary?
 
4:07 PM
ah well something more fun than that
 
@VTCAKAVSMoACE You should see my APCS code from 2 years ago, it was hilariously bad just to piss him off
I used recursion to check if numbers were divisible by 7
 
user image
3
@charredgrass ^
Have it posted to my wall, made it myself
 
oh my god
i love it
 
It's a full primitive-recursive expansion of the primality indicator function
 
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ So you have a programmable keyboard? Or do you use autohotkey?
 
4:11 PM
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Sure, you can. Just change the names in the Definitions section and you'll be good (it's made to be almost perfectly copy-paste-able).
 
someone needs to make a keyboard that can type every valid JS identifier for me'
 
@charredgrass Get a programmable keyboard and map it out yourself
 
That keyboard looks amazing except for how tiny delete is.
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan - 403 forbidden error
Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/advanced.png on this server.
 
4:14 PM
That's a pain in the butt.
 
ESC instead of Caps Lock? ಠ_ಠ
 
^
 
I hit esc hundreds of times a day. I've never hit caps lock other than by accident.
 
No num pad.
I use caps lock for gaming. It's a handy toggle.
 
wat
What game can you use caps lock in?
 
4:16 PM
I use caps lock for yelling
3
 
Any game where you set your own keybindings.
So pretty much any game.
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan there are plenty of games that use capslock as a toggle switch
 
@MitchSchwartz Turns out, Unary programs of lengths 1 through 999 999 999 can represent all 0-, 1-, 2-, ..., and 29-character BF programs
 
Toggling what?
 
Minecraft pre beta 1.9
 
4:16 PM
Sprinting or crouching
 
Doesn't Skyrim use it to toggle walking/running?
 
I think so, but I haven't played it in a while. I'm ADD in that game.
 
Fine, you can have this one:
 
I haven't played it in a while either so I'm not sure. But I remember some game pissing me off by constantly doing that toggle by accident.
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan You need a keyboard with only WASD lit (and lit brightly)
 
4:18 PM
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan I'd prefer this: techpowerup.com/198541/…
 
I don't know of a good place for public domain fantasy art. :/
 
@mbomb007 Oh, cool. Yeah, I'd prefer that too.
 
Though I would swap the Windows and FN keys.
MSI has the option to do that, but I'd have to swap the physical keys too
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 deviantart?
 
4:22 PM
@quartata Java: One language to rule them all. Its code is long, so you know its rule will be, too.
 
@mınxomaτ The license varies from art to art, defaults to all rights reserved (permissions have to be explicitly given), and also can't be found in search.
So no.
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan This looks suspiciously like a keyboard for someone who spends all day in vim
 
@Dennis If you pull Grime now, does it compile?
 
I tried From Old Books, but I don't know whether any of the books featured on there is a fantasy one. :/
 
as silly as it is I needed to write exactly 48 of the same character and got it on the first try
 
4:33 PM
So, who's TuxCrafting?
 
@ArtOfCode @TùxCräftîñg
 
Someone turned up on QPixel with that name and all the memes of PPCG, so I figure it's someone in this room...
 
Anonymous
@ArtOfCode @TùxCräftîñg
 
@Mego ninja'd
Also, let's not annoy him with even more pings.
 
4:35 PM
Huh, fair
I like enthusiastic newbs
 
@mınxomaτ Also, most art on deviantArt is water marked, which immediately disallows anything to use/steal/borrow it. Not even explicitly given permission.
deviantArt even has a water mark feature to do it.
 
@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 Ehh, just remove the watermark
 
@Zgarb Almost. pure is not in scope.
 
@muddyfish This violates the copy right of the art owner.
 
@Dennis Alright, let me fix that...
 
4:41 PM
Personal use only etc...
It takes some effort to properly remove some watermarks
 
Still technically copyright violation
 
Yes, it is.
 
Lots of stuff is copyright violation
 
have any of you tried bash for windows?
 
@NathanMerrill I have the Git bash.
Does the Git bash count?
 
4:43 PM
@NathanMerrill I'm not on a fast enough insider ring to have it yet
 
so do I, but I'm debating installing microsoft bash
 
@Dennis Should be fixed now.
 
@quartata Woah, how'd you know?
 
@ArtOfCode oh I thought you just had to turn on developer mode
 
@DrGreenEggsandIronMan I don't know maybe the colors and the extra @ and the escape
It was really hard to tell
 
4:45 PM
hmmm...apparently, the Anniversary update is coming this month
 
Once I can't get a free windows 10 update what is it going to advertise to me then?
Free* windows 10 update! *not actually free
 
free as in beer or speech?
 
@Zgarb Indeed. It compiled successfully.
 
@Dennis Great, thanks so much!
 
beer
 
4:49 PM
@Zgarb np. Do you think it would be worth to use runhaskell instead? That way, you can see potential errors yourself (and I can't forget to compile).
 
@Downgoat where are you?
 
@anOKsquirrel are you talking about all of the "extras" that get bundled that aren't free? (like office/bing revenue/etc)?
because AFAIK, the actual upgrade is free
 
Yeah up to a certain date, iirc
 
@Dennis Probably yes. The only upshot of compiling is execution speed, but Grime is slow as hell anyway.
 
er, I'm pretty sure its free forever, but its only offered for the first year
 
4:52 PM
Is that so?
Huh, I thought it ended sometime this summer.
 
yeah, the offer ends this summer, but not my license
 
yeah that's what I meant :P
 
@Zgarb Seems to be working with runhaskell.
 
@Dennis Good! And upon testing it, I discovered a bug. :P
 
Just let me know when I should pull again.
Is anyone else here having problems with SE chat and Chromium 51?
 
4:58 PM
 
@NathanMerrill nah, if you mean the bash that comes as part of the Ubuntu subsystem, then it's deep in beta.
 
lambda s,n:re.sub(r'(.)(\1{%d})\1*'%s,r'\2',n)
I wanna make this f-strings-y, but I don’t have a Python 3.6 binary.
 
@ArtOfCode Do you know much about it? Would it work as a replacement as git-bash?
 
It’s tricky, though, because of the bracessss
 
oh, hi @ArtOfCode
 
4:59 PM
Can someone check what fr'{{1}}' returns and/or point me towards a Windows binary for a Python version with f-strings?
 
how did i run a non-whole number of instructions
