Oh jesus, I hope he isn't using the SE definition :/

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ "6-8 weeks"? :O

Q: How to generate Eucledian rhythms without Bjorklund algorithm

An example of how this works taken from here A Euclidean rhythm is loosely defined as a sequence of beats and silences, where the beats are distributed as equidistantly as possible. With discrete and relatively short sequences this produces interestingly sounding results. The rhythm is describe...

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ But "6-8 weeks"... :P

5:10 PM

@zyabin I ignored your messages because I don't want to get into a argument/kickmuted from TNB. I'm not really paying attention.

Sorry. It's not about you, it's about me.

@El'endiaStarman makes sense to me though. :P

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ a new pokemon?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

yes

totally

5:14 PM

What is ihaichu? >_>

The form after Raichu.

It's not a Pokemon, what this is? >_>

@Geobits But :P on the joke.

No, it is one, coming with sun/moon later this year. You give Raichu a shadow stone to evolve it. It's ghost/electric.

<_<

I'm still unsubscribed from Pokemon games after OR/AS. >_>

So, you haven't played all the games since then? >_>

5:20 PM

I didn't buy any Pokemon games. >_>

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ what does shift-J do in vim?

It seems to remove the next newline

The same thing anything does in vim. Something totally unexpected.

El'endia Starman

The only Pokémon game I've played was Red, and that was last year, mostly because of Twitch Plays Pokémon.

Red is.... not really a good intro to the series any more, unless you're really into retro gaming.

It was great when it came out, but it hasn't withstood the test of time as well as it should have.

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Don't be so good to him.

He had an answer in a language specially designed for a challenge.

@Geobits out of context

5:34 PM

@Geobits Congrats! Now get it to 13337 rep!

@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 Must be deleted then. The only answer I see is in ECMAscript. Everyone (well, most people) learns the rules at some point.

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Oh, that wasn't directed at you.

@Geobits It was deleted.

So no issue then. Right?

I should, early or late, find some answers with 0 bytes and review them.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Geobits okay

@Geobits yeah

zyabin: yes, but I can still say hey?

(i looked in incognito mode)

5:39 PM

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Yes.

Hey.

But still, I already have un-ignored you via mobile sometime ago.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Good question. It stands for "join". It takes the line after the cursor and joins it with the current line with a space. For example: v.tryitonline.net/#code=Sg&input=SGVsbG8KV29ybGQ

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

okay

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ I had to unignore everybody after a short experiment with it. Chat just got weirdly confusing. It turned out to be easier for me to just mentally ignore people :(

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

There's also "gJ" which joins without a space. v.tryitonline.net/#code=Z0o&input=SGVsbG8KV29ybGQ

So basically, V is a free engine for striking keystrokes into Vim, without fuss.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

5:44 PM

Yes, but it also adds features.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ ooh cool

@Geobits :(

probably will do that

unignored

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

For example, loops and regex's are significantly shorter. I'm also going to add math functions, which vim has next to none.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

^ my life motto

Maybe with fuss of converting Ctrl- and Alt-strokes into understandable by V.

How to convert keystrokes with modifiers?

And Ctrl-C/Escape?

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

5:47 PM

Well, each key with a modifier maps to a real ASCII character. The pain is that a lot of them are unprintable.

(I'm used to Ctrl-C to return to Normal mode. It never gave me up, never let me down, et cetera.)

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ How?

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

Ctrl-a == 0x01, ctrl-b == 0x02, etc. Alt adds 128 to the ascii value.

Okai.

Escape is the literal ESC char, Backspace is ??? (maybe unneeded), and Return is the literal CR char.

What is Backspace?

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ My cakes are usually eaten before they even see the oven.

Is it possible to compile Linux from Scratch on a Windows system? :/

@TimmyD What the heck is wrong with this word, or with the relationship of society with this word?? Whenever someone uses it people start acting like 13 year olds hearing talking about boobs.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

6:00 PM

@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 no.

iirc Scratch can't compile kernels

@flawr I dunno. I haven't figured it out, either. That doesn't mean that I can't exploit others getting squeamish about it and repeat it when it comes up.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@flawr I like the word moist as a word. Not for the connotation.

Anybody here used roll20.net?

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ I used it once like 4 years ago and was pretty underwhelmed. I've been on their newsletter since and it looks interesting now, but I haven't gotten back into it.

I used it about 3 years ago and was also pretty underwhelmed

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ >_>

It's this

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

6:04 PM

@TimmyD okay

@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 I know.

I was beig a troll.

@TimmyD okay thanks. I've been considering joining or whatever. D&D sounds fun but nobody near me plays. I did check for like comic book store or whatever though, the only one has no RPG group.

get a bunch of nerds and ask them if you can join their group ;)

If you can get over- and underwhelmed, can you also get justrightwhelmed?

@flawr :D

El'endia Starman

@flawr I've seen stuff like "I am whelmed" in Imgur comments.

This is a good formulae, I'll steal it :D

I tried to. :(

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Not ^, **.

@flawr Gah, you found the trick

;-)

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@zʏᴀʙiɴ101 damnit

@El'endiaStarman just looked it up, to whelm is actually a verb.

@flawr I'm sorry, but swiss chocolate doesn't seem to be extra tasty. :/

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ What kind of chocolate did you get?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

swiss chocolate?

I don't know the brand. I ate it all.

My friends and I bought an .xyz domain. I'm on a roll with this domain thing... checks wallet

Theres a ton of different brands=)

probably even more

And I also do not like all of it, and I certainly do also like chocolate from other countries.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@VTCAKAVSMoACE where is your blogythingy again?

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ So what kind of chocolate do you like?

My tumblr page is truly memetic.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@flawr all chocolate

@VTCAKAVSMoACE Ooooooh... VintageTrenchCoat ... oooh

@flawr Yesssss

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

6:54 PM

swiss is still good, just tastes like everything else

@flawr ?

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ You should probably come here and try all of them.

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ VTC? See? Connection?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

ohai @DrGreenEggsandHamDJ

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ Uhh, Backspace != Delete.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

?

delete key != backspace

Delete removes chars after the cursor, while Backspace does before the cursor.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

7:02 PM

no

delete is a key

not a character

delete is a special function key, like page-up

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ ASCII 127 disagrees with you

4

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@flawr lol

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

I just looked it up. Backspace is 8, del is 127

@TimmyD So ASCII 127 is basically a cannibal among the characters?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

oh, TIL.

Somebody explained it to me once, THEY LIED. I WILL HUNT THEM DOWN and teach them to ask the PPCG chat first.

7:07 PM

@flawr Om nom nom

Also, 0-31 are properly "control characters" as well. Just because they're non-printable doesn't mean they're not characters.

While we're on the subject, are there any encodings that have all control characters as printable?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

7:10 PM

no?

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ Seriously's encoding does, I think.

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ I don't understand the question. do you mean encodings which encode each byte as a printable character?

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

@VTCAKAVSMoACE That's good to know. Does it leave the regular ASCII the same?

By definition, a control character is non-printable

Well, darn.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

7:12 PM

@MartinEnder No, I meant an encoding that displays ascii 0-31 as printable

Then it wouldn't be ASCII

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ You mean bytes with values 0-31.

Yep, I knew that.

But he's saying that after all the litigation is done, he's going to reopen it? Is that what he's saying?
