@Doorknob冰 Have you ever used Neovim?
 
12:15 AM
@phase Not available :P
 
@quartata wat
i c it
 
@phase :/
 
Also @Doorknob冰, have you ever used vim-plug? It looks super legit.
 
You're gonna need a vim plugin manager manager.

12:28 AM
@quartata waaaaat
 
@quartata In a very cheaty, non-useful way.
 
@phase Can confirm. Same issue as quartatertots.
 
@Dennis Yeah I figured it out.
 
@Doorknob冰 hey, I got pinged
 
It's almost amusing how cheaty it is
 
12:29 AM
@JoeZ. You got pinged
 
ah, lol, new year's puzzle
yeah, I've got one queued up, don't worry
 
@JoeZ. Here, have some more.
 
I'll put it up on 2016-01-01 00:00:00Z :P
(so still a bit less than 10 days to go)
I'll need some time to plan one for 2017, though
(and knowing me I'll probably procrastinate until the end of next year, so I gotta get going on it early)
 
@AlexA. @quartata Try now. There was an option to "block all countries", which I chose because yolo.
 
Hello
Anyone know how could I do this:
lets say I have a sequence [1,2,3,..,100]
how can I calculate all the possible consecutive combinations
for n numbers
e.g. n=3
[1,2,3],[2,3,4],...,[98,99,100]
 
12:43 AM
iterate through it?
 
Does this have a particular name?
yeah
I am going it in R and didn't wanna use a for loop.
 
@phase Works but wtf is that sprite
I'm not sure whether to find it disturbing or funny
 
it's tails doll
the only meme from Sonic R
 
kek
 
12:52 AM
@SuperJedi224 Prototype mini Death Star?
 
No, but that would be cool
There's a button (it's currently just inside the perimeter wall at ground level) and when you push the button that sea lantern is pushed up to the top.
Unfortunately, there's really no way to automatically retract it at the moment.
You have to reset part of the circuit, take out all the pistons, then put them all back in.
 
That sounds quite inconvenient, but it's a start!
 
1:10 AM
@Maltysen Hi
 
hi
 
Do comments which I delete remain in the @’ed user’s notification inbox?
I get the impression that they do, but I’m not sure
 
2 hours ago, by flawr
PS: 2h+something to go: http://www.spacex.com/webcast/
~13 minutes to go!
 
@AndréMuta It's called the binomial coefficient
 
1:27 AM
3 minutes to launch!
 
@gnibbler thank you man, I knew it must have a name.
 
Aaand liftoff!
 
damn I just missed it
Also wild @gnibbler sighted
 
@El'endiaStarman Oh haha I literally just got back to the hotel room
:(
 
Okay, Flip Flop has something to do with bojnties.
 
1:32 AM
Nope, votes.
Just an up or down vote.
 
What? I haven't voted on anything today
 
@AlexA. No and no
 
Aaaand separation!
 
@gnibbler Speak to us please.
;_;
 
@AlexA. I've heard many many good things about vim-plug, though
 
1:34 AM
Sadly, gnibbler is truly mute...
 
@Mutador If you used APL it would just be 3,/
 
Oh wait he just talked 15 minutes ago
Nevermind
 
I think I just heard them say four minutes to touchdown.
I.e. the experimental landing of the first stage.
 
I just got a captcha with no captcha :/
 
@phase nice meme
 
1:37 AM
oh never mind it was just loading
 
@quartata My post on the PPCG meta meme question with that was downvoted a ton ;-;
 
Two minutes to shutdown of the second stage.
Less than that to the attempt to land the first stage.
 
OMG
 
Damn @El'endiaStarman SpaceX should hire you to shoutcast these launch events
 
IT LANDED
 
1:40 AM
@Mutador Did it really?
 
No, I think it's on it's way down.
YES!!!
IT DID!!!
SUCCESS!!!
 
Wow. OK.
I was totally expecting it to blow up, to be honest.
 
No really.
I mean, SpaceX's earlier track record was pretty puts on sunglasses explosive

wut is a spacex
 
1:41 AM
@phase They make rockets.
 
NASA
 
Elon Musk's plan to get us to Mars.
 
And then abandon an astronaut who then grows potatoes in the soi- wait no that's a different thing
 
the second stage of what?
 
1:43 AM

Q: When should rule changes count?

Doorknob 冰Related: When is it allowable to change the rules? As noted in the linked meta post above, it's typically particularly frowned upon to significantly change the rules of a challenge after posting it. There's no hard and fast rule on this yet, so the purpose of this meta post is to enact at least ...

 
oh
some SpaceX thing?
 
Ye.
 
in unrelated matters, I bumped a Meta SE thread about "massively upvoted questions with no answers" just because my PPCG question about cellular-automaton Tetris is currently the top-voted unanswered question :P
 
@phase You must be new here.
 
1:44 AM
40 votes, almost 50
 
Satellites will be deployed soon.
 
@quartata i join ppcg yester week

Q: Chaining Programs

DowngoatChallenge In this challenge, you will be writing the first program, p1, of an infinite sequence of programs, in which running pn outputs/generates program pn+1. When concatenating the first n >= 2 programs, the sequence should output n. Example Let's say the first 4 programs are: p1 p2 p3 p4 ...

 
First satellite has been deployed!
Huh, maybe more than one was deployed. They just deployed three.
Aaand there goes another one.
 
1:48 AM
And another one.
 
@BlockCoder1392 Were you ev3commander?
 
@quartata Yes
 
Damn, you really like Scratch huh.
 
Nope :)
 
Another satellite let loose.
I'm trying to find out what they're for.
Yet another satellite goes. There's 11 altogether.
 
1:50 AM
obviously some sort of government surveillance *puts on tin foil hat*
 
Ah, that's all of the satellites.
 
No, they're for Google WindowView
 
I feel like I'm being trolled :P
 
hahaha
Oh, there's a "More details" link on the live stream...
> With this mission, SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket will deliver 11 satellites to low-Earth orbit for ORBCOMM, a leading global provider of Machine-to-Machine communication and Internet of Things solutions.
 
just watching the nominal spaceX mission.
 
Uhm... what? What non-machines are there that communicate with satellites?
 
gnibb is talking now!
 
@Timwi People?
 
OK, for those of you who don’t get it: satellites are machines, and everything they directly communicate with is a machine.
 
@Timwi What, you can't emit in the RF band?
 
2:01 AM
Machine to Machine refers to technologies that allow both wireless and wired systems to communicate with other devices of the same type. Machine to Machine connections may use various wireless or wired networking, information and communications technology. This broad term is particularly used by business executives. Machine to Machine is considered an integral part of the Internet of Things (IoT) and brings several benefits to industry and business in general, as it has a wide range of applications in many fields, such as industrial automation, logistics, smart grid, smart cities, health, and defense...
The Internet, basically.
 
2:29 AM
ew no scratch learn how 2 code
 
2:46 AM
How would you score scratch golf, anyway? Count the blocks?
 
who here has created the most programming language? how many? which ones?
 
@Seadrus O is my only good one
I think @quintopia has made a lot
 
@Seadrus I thought about @MartinBüttner, but then I realized that @CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ has probably made more.
Mostly because he loves to start new languages. :P
 
@phase oh yeah ive seen that
@El'endiaStarman lol you know which ones?
 
@Seadrus Chris Pressey (if you don't just mean "people in this room")
 
2:50 AM
@quintopia people in this room ;)
 
@El'endiaStarman Indeed!
@Seadrus I shall tell you.
 
@Seadrus Jolf, Emotinomicon, GoLScript, Sindesi, Comm, Simplex, Chaine, and Dash.
 
@El'endiaStarman Ninja'd o_o
 
bahahaha
 
@El'endiaStarman technically not Dash because it doesn't have an interpreter ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
2:52 AM
Dash is already a non-esolang
 
@El'endiaStarman @CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ holy crap m8 get a gf or something
 
it's a shell
 
@Doorknob冰 Its technical name is -
@Seadrus har har har
 
@Seadrus Ah well, I was going to point out that Chris Pressey has authored 78 languages. My count is meager in comparison.
 
> It's
ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ
 
2:52 AM
@Doorknob冰 -
 
@Doorknob冰 That is about the only textual mistake I make in passing.
And I've made it numerous times
 
i quit caring about capitals ages ago
 
1 min ago, by quintopia
@Seadrus Ah well, I was going to point out that Chris Pressey has authored 78 languages. My count is meager in comparison.
 
oh, nvm
 
haha
 
2:54 AM
@quintopia Meh. I'll catch up next summer
 
my most common textual mistake is "quick" when I mean "quickly". I do it in speech too.
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ what is your current count
 
Those are all the languages I care to folder-ize
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Plus a few
 
New folder sounds like a fun language
 
2:56 AM
Yeah!
Progress goes slow.
 
lol
 
Admit it, you all clicked :)
 
2:57 AM
i clicked. and was super sad.
 
@Timwi You've created a few languages, eh? How many?
 
Nov 6 at 3:29, by feersum
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Any docs for New folder?
 
There is esolangs.org/wiki/Folders of course
 
Any progress?
 
2:57 AM
@feersum lemme check in that folder
o_o
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ 4: Funciton, Ziim, Mornington Crescent and Sclipting. (Unless you count Espro, which is unfinished/abandoned, in which case 5.)
 
OH RIGHT I SAVED IT ON ONENOTE
@Timwi :D cool. I love Sclipting and Funciton, though the latter is lost on me somewhat
 
I do have more than Timwi. But I've been doing it longer...and half are unimplemented :P
 
@quintopia Thanks for the link, it needed some updates
 
I have or have had implementations for 6
 
2:59 AM
New Folder is an esoteric programming language. It has the following commands:
Command	Mnemonic	Operations
M	New folder	Makes a new folder
D	Delete folder	Deletes the most recent folder
>	Go right

[	Begin while
]	End while	If N is 0, continue. Otherwise, jump back to matching bracket.
@feersum
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ You love Sclipting? Why, thanks, you’re the first person, and possibly the only person, ever to say that. :)
 
Microscript, Microscript II, BotEngine, and Golfical are the one's I've got on github. I also have Math++ (which I never got around to migrating off pastebin), Mmmm() on JSFiddle, and Gridscript, Turing Script, and ReThue (Thue+Regex) which were never actually implemented.
 
"Begin while"... while what?
 
I don’t really care to compete on the basis of raw number of esolangs invented
 
@feersum Like brainf***s while.
 
3:01 AM
I have 1 language which is uncomputable, and 1 which I'm not sure I have the talent to implement, and 1 more which will be extremely difficult even if I do have the talent.
 
What's N?
Is it a new folder?
 
@feersum You see that space in between? Those used to be commands
I don't know what happened to them.
The idea is that you start at a folder, and you can go into subfolders, and N would be the depth of the current folder. Something like that.
 
By the way, all of you who have esolang interpreters (even unfinished ones!) on github or somewhere, but no esolangs Wiki page, definitely go write a wiki page. It will increase visibility. I browsed the esolangs wiki for days when I discovered it, but I wouldn’t really browse github repositories. The wiki is your opportunity to make your ideas appear fascinating.
 
@Timwi :D Good idea!
erm
I have a heckuva lot to write
 
I do have an esolangs page for Minkolang. It is quite out of date at the moment though, but I will update it when I finish Minkolang.

Comforting.
 
Which should be soon! This last week-and-a-half of December shall be my "finish projects" week.
 
@El'endiaStarman :D
I need a "finish projects" year.
I am ADHD when it comes to programming.
 
I've...noticed.

This is all the stuff open in my notepad:
help me ;-;
 
> .bat
You do indeed need help. :P
 
3:06 AM
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ I used to have a similar problem with tabs. Then I gradually came to decide that if I haven't looked at a tab in weeks, might as well close it.
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Window → Close All
 
Since then, I've been so much better at managing and focusing on things.
 
@Doorknob冰 It's because javac for me is "long file path"
@El'endiaStarman XD
 
@Seadrus I've made 2 languages
so ye
 
@Timwi o_o no.
 
3:06 AM
@quartata congratz
which ones?
 
rotor
and something else
 
Rotor and pl.
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ You haven't added it to your PATH yet?
 
@SuperJedi224 tell me how?
 
What OS are you on?
 
3:08 AM
Windows
 
@RikerW Of course. That's why I can say that it's worth seeing.
 
Which Windows OS?
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Control panel, system, advanced system settings, environment variables
 
See, on a sane OS it's just export PATH="$PATH:/foo/bar/baz"
 
3:10 AM
The variable PATH should contain a semicolon-separated list of directory paths
 
@Doorknob冰 You can do that on Windows too.
 
Add the directory containing javac to the end
 
You have to use setx to do it from the command line.
I used to do that but it's annoying as hell to use.
I find I'm better off using the Control Panel dialog.
 
Ew windows
Over here in POSIX land
With bash you can just set your PATH in your .bashrc
ez
 
My cpu crashes as I try to do that

3:15 AM
Bloody finally
 
Use ChatSEy. It's really good and does all sorts of things
Not as good as jQuery though
 
@quartata ಠ_ಠ
 
I tried ChatSEy and it’s so broken that I cannot use it to chat at all
 
Really? huh.
Works fine for me.
 
$chatjax anyone?$
 
3:17 AM
nope
 
so is no news good news for a sandboxed post?
 
Not if it doesn't have any votes.
 
ugh can't concentrate with insane brother being insane >_<
 
3:28 AM
what's that fractal that starts out like H and the tips branch orthogonally unless they collide and it eventually turns space into a bunch of rectangles
 
@phase Yup, I has it!
@quintopia I think I know which one you're talking about...
In fractal geometry, the H tree is a fractal tree structure constructed from perpendicular line segments, each smaller by a factor of the square root of 2 from the next larger adjacent segment. It is so called because its repeating pattern resembles the letter "H". It has Hausdorff dimension 2, and comes arbitrarily close to every point in a rectangle. Its applications include VLSI design and microwave engineering. == Construction == An H tree can be constructed by starting with a line segment of arbitrary length, drawing two shorter segments at right angles to the first through its endpoints,...
