I have to figure out what the one decision is that I want players to make. Wolf was complicated enough with only two decisions: move and play rock paper scissors.
 
That's why LazyWolf tried to eliminate one of those decisions as much as possible by not moving. Decisions are hard ;)
 
@Rainbolt I thought you wanted to make a KotH where the main mechanic was suicide?
 
I totally forgot about that
Okay, I have an idea. Your main goal is to die. Holes are opening up in the earth, but if you jump and land on another player, you don't die, so whoever gets to the hole first gets to die. You have to figure out where the fault lines are so that you can predict where new holes will open. You have no hive mind - you have to shout to nearby teammates to pass along information.
 
that sounds like a lot more than a single decision
 
Charlie: "Hey Bob! Hole opening at 8:00!"
Bob: "Witness me!"
 
3:07 PM
lol
well, I've gotta head out... ttyl
 
It is only one decision. You can only move. But what if you can move closer to a teammate to give him information that will help him die faster?
And if you know where all of the fault lines are, do you really want to die and lose all of that valuable information?
Perhaps you are better served running around telling your friends how to die the best.
Passing along information sounds tedious so I guess the controller can do that. If you are within shouting distance, your friend will just automatically know what you know.
 
i only see one major problem with this koth idea

A: Loopholes that are forbidden by default

JustinSuicidal entries to King-of-the-Hill challenges. EmoWolf was funny the first time, but it's getting out of hand. While some not-too-serious answers are often necessary to kickstart a king-of-the-hill challenge, purely suicidal answers put in little effort and tend to get more upvotes than serio...

 
That loophole is what prompted the idea IIRC
 
oh okay
not only have i been beaten to the joke, the joke prompted the thing that inspired me to make the joke :P
 
Haha

Hi, can someone help me? I'm trying to make a Turing Tarpit.
I have an idea, though I don't know if it's Turing-complete.
 
1) Dig a hole. 2) Drop Turing in 3) Wait millions of years
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ What's your language like?
 
In my conception, there are five commands:
z - increment or decrement the pointer with equal probability (50/50)
Q - increment or decrement the byte with equal probability (50/50)
> - output the byte as a number.
u - traverse to a random byte in the source code.
! - terminates the program.
 
6:16 PM
If you have something that does something with any input, it is hard not to make a turing tarpit ;)
 
@Zgarb above. (don't freak out about how fast I posted that. I was already typing)
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ IMHO, some form of conditional jump is missing.
 
I'm no CS major, but that doesn't sound TC to me.
 
@minxomat I think so, too.
 
Even with a conditional jump, it's hard (for me at least) to see how you could simulate anything at all with it. Nothing is deterministic enough.
 
6:19 PM
@Geobits Well, mathematically yes, because you could calculate the state of whatever PRNG he's using (that would be insanely impractically of course - therefore pointless). :)
 
Here's more commands I've come up with. (I want to still include randomness):
• ? - the next line is evaluated if the current byte is nonzero. Otherwise, the next next line is evaluated.
• < - takes a numeric input.
• } - output byte as a character
• rN - Sets the r-value to N, 0 ≤ N ≤ 1. The closer N is to 0, the higher probability the increase in a random command will be negative, and vice versa. An instance of r without a number will reset the r-value.
• tN - Sets the t-value to N, 0 ≤ N ≤ L, where L is the length of the code. This effects the place in the code that the u command jumps t
(I can type fast :D)
 
@minxomat PRNG is a big assumption. To do this "right" you need real random :P
 
There is an elsong with randomness in it. I'm 100% positive on that. Lemme find it.

@El'endiaStarman Yes, that's it.
 
People shouldn't take good names for languages that don't match the description: esolangs.org/wiki/Random
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ With those extra commands, I'm guessing one should be able to simulate a Turing machine (if you have infinitely many memory cells). Let me think.
 
@Zgarb There is a theoretically infinite strip to the right. I don't feel like handling a negative strip.
 
6:24 PM
@Geobits doesn't mean you can't retake it
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ What exactly does the r-value do?
 
@Optimizer As if esolangs weren't confusing enough as-is, now we'll have seven named Random :D
 
you can name it dmaonR
 
ɯopuɐɹ
 
or damn
 
6:28 PM
nor dam
 
@Zgarb The r-value controls the randomness of the z or Q instructions going a certain way (1 => -1 change, 0 => 1 change)
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Okay, so you can do r0z to certainly move the pointer to the left, and r1z to certainly move it to the right? Then you can easily simulate a Turing machine.
 
@Zgarb At that point, yes.
I do wish it was possible w/out r, but whatever.
Thanks y'all
 
Hmm, I think that if you can check the value of a byte, as opposed to just zero/nonzero, then the simulation could be done without using r
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Yeah, I'm sure it works. You can use 0 and 1 as the tape alphabet, and encode the head of the Turing machine with the sequence 234. Then your tape looks something like 0000 1000 1000 0000 1234 1000 0000... where each block of 4 bytes encodes a tape cell of the machine. With random movement, you can check whether you are to the left or right of the head, and you can easily move it 4 steps to either direction.
To rewrite a byte to a desired value, just randomly change it until it's correct.
 
6:48 PM
@MartinBüttner To be fair, he did post it in the sandbox. I think it may have been reposted prematurely, but he did try to get some feedback once the same thing was suggested yesterday.
 
@Geobits Ah yeah, he just told me... didn't notice.
 
Skeptics got the makeover they've been talking about for a while now. I'm not sure if I like it or not. On the one hand, it's very... "clean". On the other, it's much less distinctive than the black/yellow theme.
 
hm, interesting
I didn't particularly like the black/yellow theme, but I agree that this is a lot less memorable
 
oh, sorry to restart the conversation, but someone here pointed that surface book looks a lot like chromebook pixel C. Its the opposite. Surface book looks like Surface with a type cover keyboard and pixel C is inspired by that (like many other tablets out there)
 
7:05 PM
@Geobits The favicon is much less aggressive and the whole site feels less childish.
 
Surface Book and Pixel C look almost as unlike each other as two things with a vaguely similar form factor can IMO.
@SvenTheSurfer Hmm, I didn't really get childish from the old one. It was less "2015", but I'm not sure the recent push to make websites so similar-looking is always a good thing.
I agree the favicon is better, though :D
 
For some reason the black and yellow in addition to some weird conspiracy theories gave me a bad first impression.
 
They definitely have some weird stuff there, but that does seem a bit expected. It's probably the SE site with the most thoroughly referenced answers, though.
 
I think they are just finishing up all pending stuff hastily to start working for our site's design to be finished by the November graduation!
 
I don't expect the design to be finished by the November graduation date :(
I think it doesn't even go into the design queue until then.
 
7:10 PM
well, they can always finish it by 2016 november.. or 2017 ..

it is a kiey feature for me!
after all, autocomplete gives it an edge

I think you may want to tweak the sensitivity on your sarcasm detector unit.

I love the last sentence of this question: stackoverflow.com/q/33024174/3224483
 
7:27 PM
@Geobits you mean "I am no thinker, but your sarcasm detector needs senstivity tweaking"

The question has no question.
 
(any time Dennis.. feel free to pitch in)
 
So? It's the newest thing in parallel programming!
 
@Optimizer That would be a lie. I am a thinker. I try to only use "I'm no X, but..." where I'm really not an X ;)

I wasn't skeptical of that, I just really wanted to see a video. It would be entertaining and informative.
 
I love Dayquil's approach to runny noses. The river of mucus has stopped, and now I cannot breathe out of either nostril. Problem solved.
Reminds me of when I used to whine about my minor scratches and bruises. Dad would say, "I'll cut off your pinky toe. That'll make your scratch feel better."
 
Nyquil's approach amounts to "I'm asleep now so just don't care", so it's hard to choose which is better.
 
Nyquil's approach is perfectly valid IMO
Hey Geobits, how old is your kid now?
 
Well, if the object is simply to stop the runny nose, so is Dayquil's.
Eight, why?
 
7:35 PM
When (s)he was younger, did you ever play got your nose?
 
Not much, but a bit I guess. A lot younger. I'm surprised there's a wikipedia article on this for some reason.
 
I just had a flashback and I remember being extremely upset that Dad stole my nose.
 
Seems a reasonable response. Did you ever get it back?
 
I assume so. I think that him stealing my nose is more important than him giving it back. Once he gives it back, I stop caring.
So I have memories of being upset, but I don't have memories of not caring.
 
Makes sense. I assume if you have a nose now you either got it back or grew another.
 
7:44 PM
Whatever the case, my nose is totally useless right now.
I'm imagining little snot people building a wall to keep out the flu.
 
If you put on some glasses, maybe it'll feel like it has a purpose at least.
 
It's more like the little snot people are grabbing the flu particles and sticking them on their bodies.
So picture tiny, goopy, Jabba the Hutts.
 
Oooh, I do have glasses. My nose has a newfound sense of purpose.

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

TimmyDCrazy Librarian's Interesting Numbers Game king-of-the-hill card-games Phew, you just managed to finish your code for the Arithmetic Sequence of Primes, and everything went swimmingly for your Crazy Librarian boss. Indeed, the math teacher taught the librarian a new card game as thanks for the ...

 
I found out a few weeks ago that it is acceptable to write a sentence like "The person does not know their own strength." kind of like TimmyD just did in that Sandbox post.
I wasn't taught that way, so I have gone to great lengths to avoid such constructs. When I am unable to, I settle for "his or her".
 
It's infinity/2 times better than his/her or other alternatives IMO.
 
@Rainbolt Really? I thought that was bad grammar.
Huh.
I've always done his/her or either a his there and then a her later in the paragraph or something.
 
I don't like the slash to represent "or". I prefer to just write the "or".
 
I prefer "their", since it's the shortest.
 
8:13 PM
Quartata's sentence would be less easy to read: I've always done his or her or either a his there... The slash doesn't equate to "Or" in my mind, just an omission of it altogether.
 
Personally, I think that even though it's weird to use a plural to refer to a singular, it's perfectly fine grammatically to use "their" and it is in fact my go-to choice as opposed to "his/her" or "his or her". Most speakers of English don't really have a problem with using "their" to refer to a single person of unknown gender.
 
I'm not sure that quartata's sentence is grammatically correct to begin with
 
...I'm sure there's a question on this on EL&U.
 
Singular they is the use in English of the pronoun they, or its inflected or derivative forms, such as them, their, or themselves, as a "pronoun that is neutral between masculine and feminine", to refer to a single person or an antecedent that is grammatically singular. It typically occurs with an antecedent of indeterminate gender, as in sentences such as: "Everyone returned to their seats." "Somebody left their umbrella in the office. Would they please collect it?" "The patient should be told at the outset how much they will be required to pay." "But a journalist should not be forced to reveal...

Q: Is there a correct gender-neutral, singular pronoun ("his" versus "her" versus "their")?

NulldeviceIs there a pronoun I can use as a gender-neutral pronoun? Each student should save his questions until the end. Each student should save her questions until the end.

 
8:15 PM
@Rainbolt No its not lol, but it was a lot more confusing replacing the slash with or haha.
 
It's been used like this since forever, basically.

Q: Is it correct to use "their" instead of "his or her"?

Edward TanguayIs this sentence grammatically correct? Anyone who loves the English language should have a copy of this book in their bookcase. or should it be: Anyone who loves the English language should have a copy of this book in his or her bookcase.

 
I forgot. I use "one" sometimes but it doesn't always fit...
 
> Certainly many usage guides have advised against use of this "singular they" on various "logical" grounds. Nevertheless, singular they has long been part of the English language, and there are various posts on Language Log giving examples of it being used in the Bible, by Shakespeare, by the president, by the Canadian Department of Justice, etc..
> The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language's coauthor Geoff Pullum (a frequent Language Log contributor) calls the idea that they must never occur with a singular antecedent a myth.

BURN HIM
 
Umm, you did too in your last message.
 
I appear to have burst into flames.
 
Although I guess that depends on if "anyone" is always counted as singular.
 
It usually is.
Any is typically singular whereas every is plural.
 
8:20 PM
Google has failed me.
 
No, you have failed Google.
 
I'm writing a challenge about RTTTL and I cannot locate an appropriate player for it.
 
there are people who don't identify as male or female and their pronoun of choice is often "they"
 
> Ask not what Google can do for you, but what you can do for Google.
 
@quartata Not trying to be an ass, but have you tried "rtttl player"? I get several likely looking results, but haven't tested them or anything.
 
8:24 PM
@undergroundmonorail Yeah ... let's not even get started on that ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…
 
Or does this player need some kind of features besides "play"?
 
I tried rtttl player linux
 
Ah, linux thing. Got it.
 
I mean, I could write it myself but I don't wanna.
Hmm...
 
@TimmyD i know there are a number of pronouns people use for that but in my experience the singular they is far and away the most common
 
8:33 PM
Well I found a RTTTL to MIDI converter.
Too bad I am missing the MIDI codecs....
 
Just read a little about RTTTL on Wikipedia. You could probably base a challenge on this.

@flawr Hola
 
@NewMainPosts Seven answers and no votes for any of them. This may be a counter-example to the "votes are inversely related to effort" idea...
 
@El'endiaStarman Just for that, I gave you a +1
@El'endiaStarman And also because you're using a different formula than how everyone else is doing it.
 
Noooooo...now the perfect zero-ness is messed up!!!
 
Not really a reason for an upvote but okay.
 
8:50 PM
(Though I don't mind the rep. ;) )
@TimmyD Doing it the plain way would require storing and getting values from memory.
Only the top two values on the stack are accessible in Befunge.
 
@AlexA. Sure it is -- doing it that way golfed a byte off the PowerShell answer. ;-)
 
That's not what you claimed as the reason for the +1 though.
 
I think its time to officially declare Pyth as a winner in Pyth vs CJam -_-
 
@Optimizer I thought we had done that ages ago?
 
did we?

@TimmyD I also implemented a different version, but i assume El'endia Starman's is quite similar to mine (well there are only a few obvious choices for this problem=)
 
@MartinBüttner Why did you edit your post to change the header from h1 to h2?
 
@Optimizer chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/240?m=23298951#23298951 (but I think everyone secretly or not so secretly already knew at that point)
@AlexA. because I want to get in the habit of using h2 instead of h1 :P
 
Why?
h1 > h2
 
because h1 h2 h3

I'm a bit miffed that I can't use the best formula (b-a+1)*(b+a)/2 in Befunge because it requires access to both a and b twice.

Gimme a moment to come up with a complete answer. If yours is shorter, I'd rather let you have it so I'm not hogging the 2D languages. :P
 
It's fine. I'm working on an answer in Pyth
 
@flawr That's not how lambda expressions really work sadly.
It would be much cooler if they were actually like Python lambdas.
Someone better than me should come up with an APL solution for this challenge.
Oh someone already did it.
 
Say, @CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ, do you use an online ><> interpreter? I tried googling for one but couldn't find one.

9:22 PM
Hey @ThomasKwa how exactly do you count bytes in TI-BASIC?
 
@quartata I can answer that. Each function is a byte, typically.
But some functions are 2 bytes
 
Hm
 
You can measure it directly, from within the calculator.
 
How can I find out what is what?
 
And lowercase letters are 2 bytes.
@PhiNotPi Yes. That's a good way.
 
9:23 PM
@PhiNotPi Oh you can? How?
 
Go to the memory menu and press 7.
 
^Those are one byte; rest are two.
 
Look for your program and note the number. (10 bytes for program header FYI)
 
@ThomasKwa Do you know of any TI emulators where one write/test TI-BASIC that run on Linux?
 
9:24 PM
2nd->mem->2->7
 
Actually 9 bytes plus the name length.
 
@AlexA. I found one.
 
@ThomasKwa Well, 10 byte header ideally.
 
@PhiNotPi Can share pl0x?
 
I use Android "wabbitemu" and cemetech.org has a tool called jsTIfied
 
9:25 PM
@quartata But here it looks as if my proposal would work: tutorialspoint.com/java8/java8_lambda_expressions.htm
 
I'm running it with Wine
 
@flawr Sorry, I don't know anything about Java 8 lambdas. (Or Java at all.)
 
By the way, could someone who knows APL tell me if the simple solution is shorter than my codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/60125/39328 ?
 
You also need to search and download the OS for the emulator: education.ti.com/en/us/software/search
 
And you need a ROM image, which is technically illegal to use if you don't own the calculator you emulate.
 
9:28 PM
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ: Is ><> code thought of as a function if you populate the input stack ahead of time?
 
@El'endiaStarman That's how I think of it.
Any Pyth expert know how to use .Q as arguments of a function?
 
Yeah, okay. The answer I came up with will only work for single digits. I'll take the "function" route.
 
@El'endiaStarman Good idea
 
@ThomasKwa @PhiNotPi Thanks :)
 
There's also supposed to be an app for it, but I can't get it to work.
 
9:34 PM
That's strange.
While in the program editor, you can't use the arrow keys to set the top and bottom values for the summation function.
I'll have to use seq(
 
@El'endiaStarman Use -v?
 
@Al​ex I think I have discovered the opposite of a stealth ping.
 
You mean a regular ping?
 
@VTCAKAVSMoACE The interpreter CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ linked lets you populate the stack before the program runs. Do I need to add a byte for -v?
 
2, I believe.
 
9:37 PM
That would put it at exactly the length of my Befunge answer!
 
@Al​exA. Do you get a ping from this message?
 
No
 
exactly
 
Ah, I think I know how to do it.
 
@quartata: Prompt A,B:Σ(X,X,A,B is a perfectly valid program.

J.Qsr.)_Jh.)J
 
9:40 PM
It's not the shortest, though.
 
Well I think we can make it a function so we could just assume that the numbers are in the vars already
 
No, we can't.
 
Why not?
 
Except for the variables X and n, and then only if we use Y1 or u as the function.
The variables are all global.
So to call the program, you'd need to do X->A:Y->B:prgmWHATEVER
 
Yeah.
I mean TI-BASIC doesn't really have function input for programs. So that seems OK to me.
 
9:46 PM
That's not how you call functions in other languages, though.
If you need to store to global variables, then execute the code, it's a snippet, not a function.
