Regarding the cube numbering challenge, Element is now beating Pyth.

I don't think I've ever seen that happen before.

It will probably last for all of 5 minutes, though.

hold on

I'm going in

I have to save our dear Pyth

2

actually I'm busy

1:28 AM

Where's a good place to learn pyth?

Or learn it's instructions?

doc.txt

in Pyths main directory

@ThomasRoss There is the documentation on Github.

(which is the doc.txt file)

`==================== 9 chars =====================
"a" q "b"
==================================================
Pprint("\n","a")
(equal(("b")))
==================================================
a
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyth.py", line 478, in <module>
File "<string>", line 5, in <module>
TypeError: equal() missing 1 required positional argument: 'b'`

what?

1:45 AM

@ThomasRoss I'm not really the one to ask for help.

@ThomasRoss Actually, I do know what's wrong. Pyth uses Polish notation, but you tried to use q as an infix operator. Try q"a""b"

2:01 AM

@ThomasRoss you can ask me for help

and Pyth is prefix, so it's qab where a is the first argument, and b is the second argument

2:38 AM

Element now at 26 bytes.

@MartinBüttner it's just as easy to turn a character into an integer... do you think this is needed much more often?

@Runer112 I can see them, but the diff is a mess :p

Q: What are my code golf languages?

I was curious to find out the answer count for each of the languages I golf in. Using the Stack Exchange Data Explorer, I just wrote a query to answer just that and thought other people might find it interesting. Here are my languages. Query with your user id to find out yours. While we're at ...

@aditsu there is no good reason for having any type/operator combination undefined.

Also if the array is on top of the characters it would actually save two bytes.

Q: How Should I Enforce Reasonable Runtimes

Suppose I'm writing a question, code-golf or the like, and I want solutions to have "reasonable run-times". No solutions that would take years to complete, that sort of think. What are good options for conditions to put in the question to make sure this happens?

12:47 PM

I just wrote my second answer ever!

(not including challenges written by me)

12:58 PM

what's the proper thing to do if I have a new answer to a question I've already answered, using the same language but a totally different algorithm

edit my existing answer? or post a new one?

either

bleh, decisions

pick one number - 0 or 1

I guess I'll edit it

We are aware of the chat issue - we are working on bringing the chat load balancer online now.

...Is creating a snake solver an interesting problem?

(where you are minimizing the number of moves)

@Optimizer get rekt

I was getting a little worried that people were closing in on my score

got plenty of breathing room now, though :)

2:05 PM

@Runer112 insane

@Rainbolt so you posted that after the chat servers were up ? right ?

2:17 PM

@Optimizer How would I know?

it wasn't down for everyone ?

It did not appear to be down for me in the five minutes I was here before posting that message.

3:04 PM

Wow. Profile picture changes are instant all of a sudden?

Or I just got lucky to within three seconds

I have a challenge where the output will be a closed, non-intersecting loop on a grid. I'd like to avoid graphical output, but using `-|/\` looks terrible in my trials since the path is dense on the grid. Any suggestions for a better output format that's easily usable by most languages?

A list of consecutive coordinates maybe?

Yea, I thought about that. I really wanted something that would be easy for me to visually verify at a glance. It works as a last resort, though.

You could write a snippet that transformed those to a graphical output, thus avoiding everyone to have to implement the graphical output

Hmm, not a bad idea.

Except for, you know, JS ;)

3:17 PM

What's the matter with js?

First and foremost, I just don't like it. I'm sure I could dredge up other (more objective) arguments, but that's the main one. Pure prejudice.

Oh sorry, I didn't mean a stack-snippet! I meant a code snippet/little script, in whatever language you wanted

Also, have a look at coffeescript, you might like it (or you might not, but who knows!)

If I go that route, it would honestly be easier on those involved to just do a snippet. Haven't looked at cs much, though.

It's a language that compiles to javascript, it's not much better, but simplifies some things

@Geobits SVG.

3:28 PM

Hmm, that's an interesting idea.

We just hit our 60,000th bug!

3:39 PM

Haha I just wrote this to our team chat: "Some of us like to use double spaces between sentences. Some of us like to use a single space. Our documentation is now an ugly mixture of both. We need to settle on one I think. I vote for single. 10:39 am"

Change to single because it's easier to search/replace double->single than the other way around.

That and it's the far superior choice :)

Thanks for the fodder

I shall throw it in the face of the first coworker to disagree with me

Isn't it funny how nasty that looks compared to "I might bring that up."

I'd definitely go with your first comment rather than the second. Be aggressive at all times :P

Aw I just had a wonderful idea

When I throw it in my team's face, I'll have my team lead behind me yelling "BE! AGGRESSIVE! B-E AGGRESSIVE!"

Is your team lead the cheerleader type? That would sound pretty creepy coming from most people.

I wonder why this never got more attention? meta.stackexchange.com/q/230919/212780 It sure would be useful to me right now.

3:56 PM

They finally did it. They gave us the new profile. Hooray!

@Geobits I imagine that it would be useful on a site full of people that use SVG

I found an 18 byte Element solution to cube-numbering. I'm closing in on the lead, but I may have already reached maximum golf.

I have an idea for this question that I'd like to bounce off of you guys.

Maria Tidal Tug

I noticed all the Cjam and Pyth answers are downvoted

is this normal?

4:07 PM

I don't know.

I hope it's not normal

Wow, all of them are downvoted.

Maria Tidal Tug

@PhiNotPi yup

What if we had a simple program that did the following:
1. Started a clock
2. Ran a submission
3. Stopped the clock
4. Encrypted the time using a public key and output the encrypted result

Maria Tidal Tug

I know there are certain people that despise the specialised golfing languages

perhaps its ok if a golf-lang answer is a simple port of somebody else's answer

but some of those answers have had a non-trivial amount of work put in...

and they are entirely correct

4:10 PM

none of the cjam/pyth answers in that question are ports of someone else's answer

they all developed their own approach

Maria Tidal Tug

@Runer112 exactly

Err... I meant private key in that last comment

Maria Tidal Tug

IMO they are all very good answers (even if one of them is mine ;-))

Looking at posting times... I estimate the the downvoting occurred between 15 and 18 hours ago.

really? I thought it happened only a few hours ago

4:12 PM

The reason being that the youngest CJam/Pyth answer is 18 hours old, while my Element answer is 15 hours old.

I thought I saw the score on my answer go down while I was reworking it a few hours ago

Well, then you're probably right.

here it is

4 hours ago, -2

Not that the timing really matters that much. Is it worth a "don't downvote someone for their language" meta post?

Maria Tidal Tug

4 hours ago on mine as well

4:15 PM

well, unless their language breaks some rule :p

I'm not the downvoter here, but to play devil's advocate, people get upvoted for the language used sometimes, too.

I'm looking at Piet, Shakespeare, etc primarily.

Maria Tidal Tug

@Geobits Yes, thats true

well that makes sense, because any working answer in those languages is generally impressive

Maria Tidal Tug

@Runer112 Yes, I think that is it

but being correct and unimpressive doesn't warrant a downvote; being incorrect does

Maria Tidal Tug

4:17 PM

@Runer112 nailed it

here, let's make it look nicer in the star thingy

Being "not useful" warrants one. Which is totally subjective.

yeah, I guess there's a bit of a distinction

Maria Tidal Tug

@PhiNotPi Thats probably because there is a pyth noob in the room

Honestly, my answer to "don't downvote people for their language" would be something along the lines of "don't tell me how to downvote" :P

Even though I don't downvote people for that reason.

4:20 PM

well it says right on the tin what to downvote for

I think it would be difficult to argue that answers in a golfing lang are inherently not useful

Maria Tidal Tug

@Geobits yes, that of course is the rub. we're all free to vote as we please, despite tooltip advice to the contrary

@Runer112 Probably about as difficult as it would be to argue that they are "useful" ;)

I can't argue that every one is useful

but if it's a valid answer to the question that provides a novel approach or a good score, I'd argue that it's useful

Novel approach, I agree. If it's a straight port that just happens to be score better (say python to pyth), I'm hard-pressed to argue it's very useful.

has there ever been a code-golf challenge where a classical programming langauge like C actually won, and not for lack of trying by golfing langs?

not asking for any reason in particular, just because I thought that would be awesome

4:32 PM

If you count things that some golf langs don't handle well (files, floats, etc), probably. You'd probably have better luck looking for older ones, though.

There are probably many cases where Perl has won against golfing languages.

that makes sense

the main golfing languages still don't support regex afaik

It's mostly in string manipulation where golfing languages are weakest.

Maria Tidal Tug

heck I won with applescript once ;-)

admittedly that was code-challenge rather than code-golf

but it did have a golfing component

40

A: Programming with a Sporadic Shift Key

Applescript, 20 (100%) I believe I can claim a perfect score here: The Applescript Editor (my IDE) automatically converts all keywords to lower case upon compiling/running Furthermore, defined variable and handler names are case insensitive - For example if a handler myFunc is defined, then th...

it would be neat if someone curated a page of code-golf questions in which unexpected languages won

Maria Tidal Tug

4:36 PM

In general golfing languages will win, but nuances in the question can dramatically skew it

@Runer112 You could probably data explorer that by looking at question tags, accepted answers, and headers (assuming it was formatted "nicely"). But what a pain :)

Try this search C [code-golf] is:answer isaccepted:yes -[c]

that does sound like a pain. that's why I suggested someone else do it :)

Isn't @Rainbolt always talking about SQL in here? Have him do it :P

@MariaTidalTug Sounds fun.

4:39 PM

I posted a new meta answer: meta.codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/5087/18487

It requires some overhead, but after someone makes this hash program it would be good forever (or until the hashing algorithm was broken at least)

that sounds like a lot of work

I think the "be reasonable" option is probably fine for most cases

What type of hash? If it's anything common, why couldn't I just hash a fake runtime/source myself and post that?

also, this ^

Errr, maybe I meant "encrypt it with a private key known only to the challenge author"

And then the public key is available to all to verify

Does that work?

I swear I had it right in my head then I got confused

That would make more sense. Even more overhead, though lol.

4:44 PM

that sounds like a lot of work when you could just verify it by running it yourself

Anyway, I upvoted the "Be reasonable" answer. But the question is fundamentally broken. It assumes that one solution works best for all.

and checking that it's within an order of magnitude of the time they reported

You have no idea how much work is required to run every submission yourself

I have horror stories

Maria Tidal Tug

@Rainbolt doesn't this require that runtimes match precisely so the hashes match?

or am I missing something?

@MariaTidalTug The program outputs the run time also

I think it's step 4

If it outputs 5 seconds and you report 3 seconds.... well... they don't match

I suppose that the challenge author doesn't actually need to know the primary key

To keep it safe, just distribute the compiled program and only the program will know the PK

Maria Tidal Tug

4:47 PM

What if it reports 4.001 seconds on one run and 4.002 seconds on another?

Then you report the lower of the two?

Yes, I suppose keys have never been extracted from binaries before :P

@MariaTidalTug Your next question: "What if I report the time from one run and the hash from another?" My answer: "You can't do that."

Maria Tidal Tug

I mean 4.001 s on the submitters box and 4.002 s on the verifier's box?

The verifier isn't running anything

That's the whole point

4:49 PM

The main problem is that it's no different from just timing it without the hash/encrypt. There's nothing that actually verifies it.

The hash thing isn't going to work anyway. We decided that a while back

Maria Tidal Tug

@Geobits exactly

Right, but even with encryption I don't see how it would work.

Program encrypts the run time plus source code. Submission includes 1) the run time 2) the source code and 3) the encrypted blob

woah, the new user profile is cool

4:51 PM

Distributing binaries sucks because then it limits languages/platforms (and you could extract the key anyway). Any other way gives the challenger everything they need to encrypt a fake score.

supposedly, I've impacted approximately 22K people on this site

@NathanMerrill It says 408k for me. Seems way too high.

it defines "impact" as a unique view on a high-profile answer or question

so that seems appropriate

Maria Tidal Tug

@Geobits knowing this community, there will be a challenge to hack the binary anyway ;-)

have you ever written a question or answer that made it to the feature questions list?

4:54 PM

Who?

@Geobits

Me? A few, yea.

I don't think answers can be featured.

well, if the question he answered is featured, then it still counts

Jon Skeet has impacted ~111.6m

At least my top five Qs went HNQ. Maybe some other did, but unsure.

Maria Tidal Tug

4:55 PM

@Geobits 656k people impacted - nearly 0.01% of the entire population of planet earth ?!?

Yea, I think they count multiple views from the same person a bit too much :D

338k here. Doesn't make much sense.

I imagine that my view on different questions each give an additional point to the count

Ack. I don't have time to update my meta answer so I just have to delete it until I fix it.

so that I could give somebody anywhere from 10 to 100 points

5:03 PM

I hope the calculation is more complicated than "add up all the view of each thread I've participated in."

@MariaTidalTug You should be glad. That's the population of Luxembourg, plus the amount of visitors Disney World gets in 2 days.

You have a whole country and a flock of tourists at your will.

@MariaTidalTug Which is almost twice the population of Copenhagen, Denmark, minus about 100k people.

Free Legos, maybe?

Maria Tidal Tug

@ASCIIThenANSI Free lego... thats what I'm talking about

5:13 PM

@MariaTidalTug That's the kind of thing you can make whole empires bow to you with. Providing their feet aren't too sore from stepping on your Danish defenses.

Having arbitrarily defined numbers to indicate how many people have had to look at my shoddy code, this can only help my self esteem

@VisualMelon I think of it more like 'a number that tells you how many people know you exist and think what you do is cool'.

If it only counted unique IPs, maybe. Now it's more like "how many popular posts do I have?", but arbitrarily scaled.

Martin Büttner

5:32 PM

I just went to the park for a bit... and I come back to this...

@MartinBüttner You should never expect anything less.

Well, the conversation has (more or less) stayed (somewhat) relevant to SE this time, right?

@MartinBüttner Try reading what's starred as if it was the newest messages.

Martin Büttner

@Geobits oh I wasn't referring to the conversation, but the profile page :P

Oh. Then be happy, you're almost a millionaire!

Martin Büttner

5:36 PM

lol

I like it overall. Maybe a bit heavy on the badge emphasis, but nothing too bad.

Martin Büttner

yay for colourful pixels!

I like that I can finally see my actual progress towards all badges without having to search for obscure SEDE queries which are usually unreliable anyway

It recommends Fanatic as my next badge.

I wonder why.

Is it the one you're nearest to completing?

It wants me to do Critic.

Martin Büttner

5:41 PM

it says I'm closest to Copy Editor, but I'm still very far away from that one...

this impact thing definitely needs work... no way 70k people have looked at gibberish CJam code to solve contrived puzzles

@Runer112 Looked at, yes. Understood one byte, no.

I like it. I have almost half the "reach" of Martin, despite less than a quarter the rep :P

Maria Tidal Tug

my company's resident perf expert left a month or so ago, and I worked with him on something mostly unrelated. So apparently now I am the resident perf expert :-/

Something about a one-eyed king comes to mind...

5:54 PM

What kinds of links do you have to share to get the Announcer, Booster, and Publicist badges? I know you can't link to a question on PPCG itself, but does that apply to any SE site? And are there any other restrictions?

Martin Büttner

@ASCIIThenANSI There's a "share" button below each question and answer.

The link you get from that one has your user ID in it, so it can count referrals.

For Announcer and Booster you can share it anywhere (including on PPCG or anywhere else on SE).

For Publicist you'll have to share it somewhere off-site.

@MartinBüttner And how do I track how many people have clicked? Or can I not track that?

Martin Büttner

And answer links count towards the same tally as the question they belong to.

@ASCIIThenANSI You can't.

This data is not accessibly via SEDE, so there's no way to figure this one out.

@MartinBüttner OK. Thanks for the info.

Martin Büttner

Hm, still no 1989 answer.

@MariaTidalTug You're the resident Bash expert here, right? Go for it :P

Maria Tidal Tug

6:00 PM

@MartinBüttner (furiously reading man pages)

Martin Büttner

I have an idea for a new feature of PPCG. Where would I post this, so that people can see it?

meta

Martin Büttner

yeah, post on meta with the feature-request tag, but don't get your hopes up ;)

also, what's the feature? (maybe it's been suggested before)

It was an answer to another feature-request, posted here:

0

A: Create your own golfing programming language, then see how well it performs on undisclosed challenges?

About 50% good I have always thought creating and sharing programming languages was cool. And I had even found some on PPCG, but they were closed quickly. And I've also seen some comments against this idea, due to the fact everything will end up similar to a real language. Here's what I think: ...

6:17 PM

I polled my team for a concensus on single versus double spacing earlier. My team lead responds with this:

Q: Standard library usage as a limiter, unclear example

I was looking through some contests when I found this one. There was a rather long discussion concerning using boost/asio in a web parsing contest.

is there any way to edit an answer without triggering a bump

I feel a bit scummy for bumping a month-old answer because I edited to clarify the grammar in a few places

You should only feel scummy for doing that many times quickly. Edit-bumping happens, no big deal.

7:04 PM

Is there a way to manually move discussion to chat, before that link appears?

yes

I believe only mods can migrate discussions to chat manually

Martin Büttner

I think you can invite someone to chat though.

well, nobody can force you to move to a chat

but you can open a chat room with someone manually

That doesn't "move the discussion to chat". It just "moves future discussion to chat"

Maybe I didn't understand what user23013 was asking

7:07 PM

I think he chatted too much via comments and got the message telling him he should cosnider moving the discussion to chat

> I'm moving this conversation to chat. posts screenshot of comments in chat

:D

and was wondering if he could preempt that

Well, not that many things to discuss, though. Or I can just chat here

This place is always on topic until it isn't.

was it Rainbolt's birthday yesterday? (discussion about Rainbolt is on topic, of course)

7:10 PM

How did you know that?

only just occurred to me why you might have been a cake

BINGO!

didn't remember you specifying, however

I was hoping someone would catch that

(it helped that you aren't a cake now, I had assumed it was just a fun lasting change)

7:11 PM

I saw that you were a cake and figured you were just being weird

like these people anagramming their names into nonsense

@ASCIIThenANSI While some users are following that and don't ban useful characters, you can see the RadioASCII challenge if you really want them to do. In fact if 9 wasn't banned, we probably already got answer 1.

happy day-after-birthday, Rainbolt (took a while to not think of a better name)

@Runer112 I don't know what you are talking about Rerun 112

Oh cool, I found a bug

yes, I'm aware of that bug, and it's a bit annoying :p

The permanent highlighting?

7:15 PM

well, I'm not sure what you mean by permanent

but you can edit a message that highlights someone to ping them again

If you hover over a message that is a reply to another message, it highlights it until you stop hovering.

That's normal

But then I edited the message to reply to a different message, and hovered over it

The original reply to message was permanently highlighted

(until a page refresh)

ah, that's definitely different

@Runer112 Test 1

now I've got it too

I can't repro consistently

7:17 PM

maybe I stole it from you that time :p

Oh, it's stuck on your screen too?

The "well, I'm not sure [...]" is stuck on mine

Despite the fact that I repointed it to "yes, I'm aware [...]"

@ASCIIThenANSI By the way the list on esolangs isn't complete. Some are not linked and not in any categories. I suppose there are also many non-esoteric machine code that works, if they had acceptable I/O methods and doesn't require a file header.

@Runer112 If this is annoying you let me know. It's for the good of my rep on meta.

@user23013 It's a start.

I can't repro at all now. WTH

7:23 PM

I've now got 3 permanently highlighted messages

@user23013 The challenge link you gave me also is a good start, let's see what we can make of it...

@Runer112 It has to be tied in to when you decide to hover. I have to move my mouse around to change the "reply to"

But I can't reproduce the pattern of hovering that causes it to perma highlight

it seems I can pretty easily

seems like the un-highlight event is tied to mouse leave

so when you change the highlighing message, the new message is tied to that event and the old one is left stranded

That's probably it

I am very unimpressed with the new profile. It thinks I should try for the pop-con badge.

7:30 PM

Mine says pop-con too. I assume it just shows whichever you're closest to (it is in my case).

Maybe you should just embrace your inner pop-conner :)

I have changed it to track progress for the kolmogorov badge. Now I probably need to post some suitable questions...

8:02 PM

is a "post" a question, an answer, or either?

Either.

(Actually I think that the same table is also used for tag wikis).

8:15 PM

That same table includes questions, answers, wikis, tag wiki excerpts, tag wikis, moderator nominations, wiki placeholders, and privilege wikis

(Don't ask me what a wiki is)

my profile page suggested I get the excavator badge, so I'm trying to find an excuse to edit one of my old answers

I also noticed my very first answer here was before I was aware of loopholes that are no longer funny and collected a score of -2

which is unfortunately 1 above the threshold of -3 to delete a crap answer and get a badge for that :p

oh hey, looks like someone downvoted it to -3

Well it meets the definition of "not useful" to me ;)

Everybody, let's downvote him!

give me that badge now pls

what a rip-off, I didn't get the badge

Some are run on a daily script, give it time.

8:24 PM

but I want my badge that says I'm an idiot now!

Go find something for Disciplined in the mean time :P

I could delete this somewhat rebellious answer I made to the wolf survival game question

that responded to a well-upvoted answer that used reflection to get an advantage, using reflection even more aggressively to try to convince people that reflection shouldn't be allowed

it was kind of breaking the rules anyways and only has 4 points so.. away with you!

@Runer112 I kind of liked the cheaty Wolf subculture.

I sort of did, but didn't think they should compete in the same class as the others

which was mentioned somewhere in the post

I just put notes on the Scoreboard had notes like "This guy destroyed everyone else using reflection. Here's what the scoreboard would have looked like if we didn't allow reflection."

And I left a comment on the answer to that effect. So people could vote on how clever they thought the solution was and quit worrying about who wins.

I actually learned more from your answer than I did from any other one. I spent a ton of time learning about reflection and whether it can be blocked.

8:39 PM

well, I've gotta get the disciplined badge somehow :p

seemed like the best candidate

there's the security manager thing

I know. I'm just here to make you feel bad about it by complimenting your answer.

never actually looked into it too much to see if it perfectly protects classes

9:13 PM

damn you site, give me vox populi already

I went around upvoting all the things I liked from the past month or so but forgot to upvote, and I've run out of votes to give

@aditsu Maybe you can help with this: I am interested in creating an online interpreter for Element, my "golfing" language, similar to the online interpreter for CJam. There's one minor problem: I don't have a clue how to do it. Any help will be appreciated, thanks!

Martin Büttner

hm, gnibbler manually CWed it. I'll ask him about it

It dates from 2011, so that probably makes sense considering the time period.

@MartinBüttner, the comments explain most of it.

Martin Büttner

Next badge: Excavator (Edited first post that was inactive for 6 months)
