It's possible verified is for starred messages

We don't know yet

@lyxal Can I have RO so I can abuse pinning?

Thanks

I wonder if there's a limit

if len(branch) == 1:

    if isinstance(branch[0], vyxal.structure.GenericStatement):

        if branch[0].branches[0][0].name in NILADIC_TYPES:

            return vyxal.structure.Lambda(0, branch)

        return vyxal.structure.Lambda(

            elements.get(branch[0].branches[0][0].value, ("", 1))[1],

            branch,

AAAAAAAAAAAA

splongus

DOOT DOOT DOOT ODOOOT

mousetail

Star me harder daddy

Ginger

ಠ_ಠ

@lyxal have we verified verified is verifiably awarded from stars?

lyxal

probably

Ginger

13:24

hmmmmm

lemme get GingerBot in here

I'll set it up to pin every sent message

lyxal

room topic changed to SE Chat Test Chamber 03: Something something winter bash hat cheese something something (no tags)

because this is actually the third test chamber lol

Ginger

f

wait is there ratelimiting on starring different messages?

yes, there is

lyxal

chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/138861/se-chat-test-chamber-01

Ginger

but not for pins I think

lyxal

chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/139694/se-chat-test-chamber-2

soon enough there'll be 19 test chambers and a final boss fight :p

mousetail

13:27

You must first test every chamber before you can enter the boss chamber though

lyxal

there'd be people who would be GLaD to do that

Ginger

bogos

nice, it works

mousetail

13:31

Hazzard signs for this room would be "stars"

and "invalid markdown"

Ginger

@lyxal are we sure pins count?

lyxal

I fixed the sign

Ginger

lmao

lyxal

it's all cube bonk

Ginger

cubes are just raining from the sky

lyxal

13:32

that's what it's called in the test chamber sign maker thing I have

Ginger

@lyxal please give link

lyxal

forgor where I downloaded it from

because it's an exe

SPArcheon

oh, nice, a sidebranch of Aperture Labs.

Ginger

yeah

lyxal

totally not SE winter bash cheese

SPArcheon

13:34

Little warning though... I doubt they would go that far, but probably the bot owner (whoever they are) should not star the posts of their main account to get the hat since it could be seen as sock abuse.

Ginger

*gesp*

2

eh, it's probably fine

lyxal

not that it matters because ROs can star their own posts anyway

Ginger

I hope

SPArcheon

I suspect you are the owner, right Ginger? I will go around and star some other post of yours so at least you have the excuse that you would have gotten the hat anyway just in case

Ginger

^^^

@SPArcheon I mean, it's not like the bot has my name on it or anything :b

lyxal

13:36

@lyxal just pin and then unpin a message and bam it's starred

Ginger

also I think it just died

ooooooh

sechat.errors.OperationFailedError: ('Failed to pin message', b'"You have fully used your vote allowance for today"')

I've never seen that error before

lyxal

@lyxal it's just a matter of automating something that can already be done manually :p

@Ginger I have

been a while since I last saw that message, but yeah, there's a star cap

Ginger

eyyyyy got it!

I am now back in first!

lyxal

for now

just need a little upvote on a little post and I'll get 2 more easy hats

Ginger

bruh

wait, which? I know the splunk one

but what's the other?

lyxal

13:38

something about answering a question with a pending bounty and not being awarded the bounty

Ginger

ohhh

waiiiiit

I know the question you mean

lyxal

duh

Ginger

and I'm working on an answer for it too

lyxal

it's the only data structures question with an open bounty

@Ginger time to go use every language you might use for it

Ginger

so, how about we [[MAKE A DEAL]]: I post my answer, we both do a little upvoting on each other's answers

and all is nice and spicy

lyxal

13:39

that doesn't work for me

I still end up one hat short

Ginger

hmmmmmm

why?

lyxal

if we both get +2 hats, there's no change in ranking

Ginger

yeah, but we'll both have +2 hats

lyxal

I want my #1 spot back :p

Ginger

which means we'll be better insured against other people trying to usurp us

mousetail

13:40

It will increase your lead

Ginger

it's a [nothing]-[nothing] deal!

lyxal

sweeten the deal by telling me how you managed to get the pointing arrow sign

Ginger

I have absolutely no idea

lyxal

then I'll accept the deal

Ginger

I'd tell you if I knew, but I don't

mousetail

13:42

What all did you do before you got it?

describe every second

Ginger

bingus

mousetail

also for verified

juice any avocados?

Ginger

verified was easy: we did a little pin abuse

but my bot just broke, so that won't work anymore

mousetail

Oh did I miss it?

Sad

lyxal

@Ginger hm

ight fine, I'll accept

Ginger

13:44

cool!

lemme get my answer working

lyxal

problem: I'll be going for the night in a few minutes

will it be ready in a few minutes?

Ginger

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

maybe???

mousetail

Anyway could I get star please? I think the message needs at least 2 stars

Boots

@mousetail Two for you, sir.

mousetail

TY

lyxal

13:50

@Ginger alas, it wasn't

I'mma head out now

so I'll upvote in the morning

Boots

Code golf? What the Dickens am I doing here?

Ginger

@lyxal ok, bye

@Boots welcome, good sir

mousetail

@Boots It's quite fun you should try it

Ginger

yes

lyxal

@Boots that's a good question. Run while you still can. It may not be too late to avoid being sucked into a 4 year addiction to the sport of code golf :p

Ginger

13:51

don't listen to him

code golf is fun and relaxing

mousetail

Come to code golf, we have

i;j;k[128];n[999];l;c;d;e;f[999],g;main(a,b)char*b[];{while(++i){for(j=0;j<128;j++)k[j]=0;for(j=g=c=0;e=b[i][j];j++){if(e==91)f[g++]=j;if(e==93)n[f[--g]]=j;n[j]=f[g],}for(l=j=0;e=b[i][j];j++){if(e<44)k[l]++;if(e==45)k[l]--;if(e==62)l++;if(e==60)l--;if(e==46)putchar(k[l]);if(e==93)j=n[j]-1;if(e==91)j=!k[l]?j:n[j];}}}

Boots

@lyxal Does that sport mainly involve a very copy/paste/tweak cycle?

Ginger

@Boots it depends

We have made various websites for testing out code golf answers

mousetail

Sometimes, but I don't really play that way

Ginger

and various languages, for golfing in

and various competitions, for testing your golf skills

mousetail

13:53

Prefer writing origninal answers

Even if they are worse than existing ones

Boots

I'm not even good at real golf!

Ginger

You don't have to be

(unless you're playing brockian-ultra-code-golf :p)

mousetail

The thing about code golf is it's fun even if you suck at it

Ginger

exactly

mousetail

The trick is not to get discouraged if others are better than you, but to focus on competing against your past self. My past self rarely wins from me

Ginger

13:59

...I think he left

mousetail

Other people will read it

Ginger

The Code Golf Manifesto

mousetail

It was mostly directed at myself anyways

Ginger

14:12

@lyxal ok here's my answer: codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/255581/108218

mousetail

Seems

I

need

7

more

Ginger

~~now gimme the upvotes~~

mousetail

will my existing answer count for the hat?

Ginger

if it has >=2 score, yes

mousetail

It has 3

Ginger

14:15

I'll vote on it if you vote on mine :p

@lyxal I've given you the vote, don't betray our [[DEAL]]

mousetail

I think that's illegal

Ginger

it's fine

it better be fine

Q: Massive account suspensions

Hundreds of Bioacoustics Stack Exchange users received the following private message that announced the suspension of their account: Hello, We’re writing from the Stack Exchange Community Management Team with respect to your account. As you are likely aware, during the “Commitment” phase of the ...

Ginger

hmmmmmmmmmm

well

> Deliberately voting in order to circumvent Stack Exchange system restrictions. For example, voting for a user’s posts only so that the user gains the privilege to comment.

mousetail

Or gains a hat

Ginger

14:17

I think hat reqs count as system restrictions, so I guess I have technically violated the CoC

shit

@lyxal I've retracted my vote because ^^

sorry

mousetail

Chances are you'll get 2 votes even without any cheating

might just take a bit longer

Ginger

we'll see

wait, lyxal still got the hat

oh right, hats aren't removable

so if the answer gets 2 score, that gets the OP the hat, even if the votes are immediately retracted

mousetail

Yea so you can commit voting fraud then undo it for no harm done

Ginger

...except for the hat

mousetail

14:32

@Ginger can you pin one of my messages?

Ginger

sure

mousetail

@Ginger can you make me RO?

UNLIMITED POWEWR

14:42

chill, chill

mousetail

I'll chill when I freeze do death on my commute home tongiht

F it's so cold

Ginger

oh noes

SPArcheon

14:56

pretty sure by now that pins are not counted.

Ginger

they are

that's how I got it

SPArcheon

If they where, I probably should have the hat by now.

Ginger

at least before the bot died

mousetail

I still didn't get it despite getting more pins

Steffan

15:34

Panda said he got verified by pinning his own messages
