Hi
Apr 20, 2018 15:45
if not, maybe there is time for one last challenge :)
Apr 20, 2018 15:43
and now I am thinking of a ppcg challenge. Have we had one for just counting up on the spot? That is printing 1, 2,3,4,5 etc. to the console but in place, so one number replaces the one before?
Apr 20, 2018 15:43
got you thanks
Apr 20, 2018 15:40
just wondering what sort of person if not you
Apr 20, 2018 15:40

@Dennis so who has to look at it if not you?
Apr 20, 2018 15:26
@Pavel I didn't mean real suicide..sorry
Apr 20, 2018 15:24
@Dennis Thanks.. it's remarkably hard to commit account suicide :)

@ASCII-only math.stackexchange.com/a/2743345/72724 do you mean that is incorrect?
Apr 20, 2018 11:26
which is not so idiotic
Apr 20, 2018 11:26
I mean you could ask for a proof that r/2 is irrational I suppose
Apr 20, 2018 11:25
r/2 + r/2 ?
Apr 20, 2018 11:24
how can this idiotic question have so many votes?! math.stackexchange.com/q/2743302/72724
Apr 20, 2018 10:31
I worry about their postdoc :)
Apr 20, 2018 10:31
he/she just writes a lot of answers :)
Apr 20, 2018 10:30
@ASCII-only found them
Apr 20, 2018 10:29
which is slightly mysterious
Apr 20, 2018 10:29
I haven't found a single asymptotics question yet!
Apr 20, 2018 10:29
for the top asymptotics person in the last 30 days math.stackexchange.com/users/75808/clement-c
Apr 20, 2018 10:28
@ASCII-only that is true
Apr 20, 2018 10:26
@ASCII-only thanks
Apr 20, 2018 10:25
is that also easy?
Apr 20, 2018 10:25
how about for a pair of tags? and
Apr 20, 2018 10:25
thank you
Apr 20, 2018 10:25
although I don't know the clicking route to get there :)
Apr 20, 2018 10:25
oh that was easy!
Apr 20, 2018 10:24
SEDE?
Apr 20, 2018 10:23
I want to know who is really good at at maths.se
Apr 20, 2018 10:22
how do you find the top rep for answering for a particular tag?
Apr 20, 2018 10:11
of course I haven't watched the full video :)
Apr 20, 2018 10:10
@ASCII-only This would be the error rate of the coder I think
Apr 20, 2018 10:10
me too!
Apr 20, 2018 10:09
@ASCII-only I suppose it's hard to measure the error rate in this case
Apr 20, 2018 09:29
from which you get a different sort of guarantee of correctness
Apr 20, 2018 09:29
that makes sense but there is a world of people who like proofs
Apr 20, 2018 09:26
@ASCII-only isn't that like saying that if two people get the same answer in an exam it must be right?
Apr 20, 2018 09:23
for example, maybe the code was just buggy
Apr 20, 2018 09:22
@ASCII-only right.... the point is that no one ever proved those 12 trillion digits were actually correct
Apr 20, 2018 09:22
@ASCII-only cool
Apr 20, 2018 09:20
that's a lot of rep
Apr 20, 2018 09:20
:)
Apr 20, 2018 09:19
Apr 20, 2018 09:19
@user202729 I will never learn!
Apr 20, 2018 09:19
please feel free to ignore
Apr 20, 2018 09:19
I just liked that they are checking what the millionth digit was
Apr 20, 2018 09:18
@ASCII-only oh sorry :)
Apr 20, 2018 09:18
@ASCII-only sorry when does what start to get interesting?
