White Water Rafting code-golfgraphsgrid This problem is about finding the best path through a bunch of rocks on a 5-column wide river, without crashing your raft. A river looks like this (* reprsents a rock): . . . R . . R . . . R . . . . . . R . . R . . . . . . . . R Each row will contain...

@HelkaHomba that is some poor luck

Can I delete my account on area51?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

idk, why?

idk i made sample question for a bad proposal and someone downvoted it so now I can't downvote on A51

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

earn your rep back

join humor

10:15 PM

i diid

wait no

nvm

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

dont yet

lemme refer you

cheddar is taking over my email ;_;

>You'll be able to commit to another proposal once one of the above sites' beta launches, and you follow through on your commitment to that site. See the FAQ section on commitment for more details.

last itme I checked arts and crafts have launched...

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ I can't find the "downvote this proposal" button. Do you know where it is?

@Geobits check your avatar :P

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Geobits That's a good one! ;)

10:19 PM

Nope, that just leads to my profile :(

are memes on topic on humor?

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ You'd think someone committed to humor.se would be able to tell the difference :P

if they are im totally running for mod with my dank goat memes

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

hide your children folks

@Upgoat The problem with that is the vast majority of them aren't funny >_>

10:20 PM

;_;

Even in a "humor is subjective" way :P

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

ಠ_ಠ

my goat memes are the GOAT

See? Proof right there ^^^

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

10:21 PM

@Upgoat that's actually seriously bad

;_;

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

ok, that's good

i hope mods dont nuke the goats out of existence

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ :D :D :D

I was worried that indecisive voting the other day was the end of it

wtf js

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

dude

floating point

ಠ_ಠ its high level language, it shouldn't have problems with that, the snake doesn't

Stop using JS for arbitrary integer/float arithmetic :P

10:37 PM

> goating point

ಠ_ಠ

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

:D

@Upgoat npmjs.com/package/big-integer

that is slow as shit

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

how do I stop n++ from converting spaces to tabs automatically?

10:40 PM

why u hate tabs?

@Upgoat High level =/= has arbitrary precision arithmetic support :/

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Upgoat I love tabs, but when I'm using 2-space indents, I don't want tabs

@Sp3000 no but high level languages should have arbitrary precision arithmetic suppotrt imo

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ y r u using 2-space indents

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Upgoat J

tabs look ugly with J

ah ok

use neovim is solution

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

10:42 PM

ಠ_ಠ

neovim text editor is best text editor

it has clicky movement support even so its just like normal text editor

you can even click and drag to select and that good stuff

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

I like n++. It works.

except for the tabs thing

but vim is best it can do everything n++ can ;_;

wait wat is n++

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

notepad++

ಠ_ಠ notepad++ <<<< vim

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

10:45 PM

yeah. it eats vim on an ice cream cone

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ settings > preferences > tab settings, then you can either set tabs to be replaced with spaces, or set the tab width to 2.

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan pls halp convince @CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ (neo)vi(m) is best text editor

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@trichoplax thanks!

@Upgoat Because Python differentiates between integers and floats while JS treats them all as floats which is dumb

10:52 PM

what

@Upgoat @CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ emacs is best text editor

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan ... o_O

I'm trying to write a small esoteric language in J.

Then it probably doesn't matter if your text editor isn't Turing Complete... :)

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

is emacs TC? o_O

I think at least one of vi and emacs is. I don't follow the war rhetoric too closely though. I just use Notepad++...

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

hi-five

11:30 PM

:)

vim is turing complete

Don't know about emacs.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

hey quartata do you know what the type verb is in J?

or what it's used for

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@quartata you know, I've heard that many times before, but I've never heard the proof. Is vim really turing complete? Could you write a brainfuck interpreter in vim?

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan Someone has written a turing machine simulator in vim

emacs is basically a lisp machine

course it's turing complete

11:41 PM

I could dig it up

@RenderSettings Yeah, I figured

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

HTML+CSS is turing complete yuk yuk yuk

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ ermm

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

it isn't

techinically

Looks like it just pretty prints the foreign 4!:0

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ what? No it's not.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

11:42 PM

it's a push-driven automata

push-powered, whatever

@miles hm. okay

mm, if you have a person hold down the tab button and spacebar (i think?) it is

jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/dx004.htm

just remaps it from -2.. to 0.. and cuts the list of names to an index

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

oh, I see

It doesn't even work for me on tryJ :P

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

why don't you download J?

11:43 PM

I have it downloaded I'm just lazy

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

oh

tryj stopped working for me a while ago

@quartata sauce?

I was reading about emscriptem which I think was used to compile the C src for J to Javascript

@DrGreenEggsandIronMan It was on Usenet, so finding it may be slightly difficult

Lemme see here

Dr Green Eggs and Iron Man

Although, tbf vimscript and python are both turing complete, and vim can access both, so it kinda has to be TC by extension.

11:47 PM

This didn't use vimscript or anything

I don't think Python existed when this was made

Oh wait, nevermind.

Gee, I keep forgetting how old Python is...
