Triangulate a Location
code-golf
Modern day GPS systems use a method called trilateration (better known as triangulation) in order to determine the user's location. Your goal is to mimic this given some data, and output the devices location. You will be given the location of 3 satellites and as...

How many squares?
code-golf
Challenge
Given an image, count the number of squares in the image.
The images will never have squares separated, and they will always be touching and/or overlapping. Some squares may be rotated by n degrees, so you aren't just looking for vertical and horizontal ...
When you search something on google, within the results page, the user can see green links, for the first page of results.
In the shortest form possible, in bytes, using any langage, display thoses links to stdout in for of a list. Here is an exemple, for the first results of the stack exchange ...
@Dennis RIP open source :( Also, if you have not heard of the latest Android exploit which can give control of your phone to the hackers using a single MMS (which btw, you dont even have to open), better make sure you get the latest OTA android update
64 bit weaving
code-golf
Input
Two integers:
A non-negative integer W in the range 0 to 2^64-1, specifying the weave.
A positive integer S in the range 1 to 255, specifying the side length.
Output
An S by S ASCII representation of the requested weave (S newline separated strings of S ch...
@Dennis Inlining is not always possible. In this case we could inline K, resulting in ?>f!sTy-RKcsJsQlJJ2K":(, but that messes up the definition of J. Pyth always converts the first appearance of J and K into an assignment, with is not always the first usage of J. For instance mJ2J gets compiled into Pmap(lambda d:assign("J",2),J). But thanks for that P golf.
@Optimizer I use CyanogenMod (old version, since I don't like Android 5) and a different SMS app (which allows to block unwanted messages). Let's hope I'm not affected.
It'd be nice if you could just stop video MMS from auto-receiving. I'm not paranoid/security-conscious to disable images and everything along with it, but I don't give a crap about videos via text.
Input
Two integers:
A non-negative integer W in the range 0 to 2^64-1, specifying the weave.
A positive integer S in the range 1 to 255, specifying the side length.
These can be taken in whichever order suits you.
Output
An S by S ASCII representation of the requested weave (S newline sepa...
1) My steering wheel is untouchable for a minute or two after work 2) The wheel itself is narrow, and I'd like it a bit thicker 3) The material right where my hand sits is starting to deteriorate just enough to be unpleasant-feeling
@AlexA. It's really hard to star yourself. Sure, I could make a sock, gain him 20 rep, and do it that way, but frankly, I lack the motivation.
Now it's totally possible that my dog is logged in at home on his own newly created account, but I'm not sure he has the manual dexterity to star just my messages.
If so, I'm impressed. Remind me to say "good boy" when I get home.
In 2D Mario, Bullet Bill cannons are two units tall. The Bullet Bill is fired out of the upper unit and travels in a straight line (parallel to the x axis).
Mario is two units tall when standing up and one unit tall when ducking. His jump height is three units. It takes him 0.5 seconds to reach ...
So I was making a chatbot in Ruby for SE chat, and I discovered that I could find out the starrer of a message.
I'm pretty sure stars, like votes, are supposed to be anonymous. Although this knowledge would help for cases of star trolls like this.
Here's the specific slice of code that do...
Oh, I don't care that much. Whoever it is will get tired of it soon enough. If it keeps going for days on end, I'm sure a mod will step in and do something. NBD.
Background
One-hundred and thirteen years ago, amateur cryptographer Félix Delastelle published his work on the four-square cipher, a digraphic substitution cipher that accepts two permutations of a 25-letter alphabet as keys and encodes messages consisting of those letters.
