latexify everything

Does this count? http://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/48556/print-the-first-character-of-the-previous-answers/48583#48583
Seems like a stretch.

@Optimizer that's what we've been waiting for, right?

It looks good, and the meta post checks out.

@PhiNotPi Do you think I should accept it?

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

Missing distance between points code-golf error-correction and-some-other-tags There are N points on a straight line. Someone calculates all possible distances between each pair of points and sort them. In the following example I used 5 points. The sorted list of distances is [2, 5, 6, 8, 9, ...

@Rainbolt Yes, sometimes we discuss our site, and it can get heated. I like having a community who has a whole variety of opinions. Please don't mention it just for the "popcorn", as it were.

@ASCIIThenANSI In any case, you should wait 3 weeks before accepting it, because that's what you said you'd do.

@Rainbolt Uh oh. Frank is here.

@MartinBüttner OK then.

@Rainbolt Yes. Cast judgement on me, without actually making an attempt to understand. That'll go over well, indeed.

At what point did I judge you?

Martin Büttner

I don't see any judgement at all.

@Rainbolt wow, did we just agree on something?

9:14 PM

Aw crap

Martin Büttner

:D

I'm not sure I can respond to Ashley Nunn freely without being chat banned. So I won't.

user15026

@Rainbolt If it's constructive, you can :) (I'm not all that quick with the banhammer.)

user15026

It just seemed odd that you mentioned it and then a bunch of people from here popped in, and I just wanted to prevent any sort of drama. We make enough of that on our own, I think. ;)

@AshleyNunn Speaking of popcorn: "I like having a community who has a whole variety of opinions."

@Rainbolt I do, though. It makes things interesting, and we get to consider things from a variety of viewpoints, which has brought a whole lot of good ideas about how we handle things and so on.

user15026

It's good to disagree now and then, and we have some passionate people.

user15026

Nothing wrong with that.

You have completely changed me as a person. Yesterday I hated varied opinions.

@MattGiltaji @colorfusion Welcome to the Nineteenth byte.

user15026

@Rainbolt I feel like this is sarcasm, and I am trying to figure out why.

@TheBestOne hi

did anyone fork stackegg yet?

Not yet. I'm still working on Red vs. Blue.

And I don't like languages other than Python or Java.

How about C#?

Notice that C# is not Python or Java.

Hrm... On meta.stackexchange.com, the user profile looks a lot different than the ones for the other sites (i.e, click on your username on the topbar). It tracks badges, privileges, etc. Why aren't other sites like this?

9:30 PM

It's an experiment they're having.

Q: Profile Page Makeover, Part 3: the Prototype returns

Update We have done a bunch of work following your feedback - just look at all those status-completed tags on the different answers here! The top suggestion was to do something about the badge visualization - we have listened and completely redesigned that piece - check out the new and improved...

I like it. Where do I upvote/leave a positive comment?

On this icon:

@TAbraham yes I do remember you - I just haven't been around much...

@TheBestOne The amount of effort required to respond like that...

9:38 PM

20 seconds

Effort is not always proportional to time

Yes, usually effort decreases with time.

27 How to make it look like you have a lot of stars

Oh my it actually worked

He he :)

Ah - didn't think of it getting more than 1 star...

9:43 PM

Almost.

@TheBestOne Well, you've got me there.

When is 2010 going to happen?

9:47 PM

I still don't get the reference to 2010

I've been away...

Is 2010 when we're going to graduate?

@trichoplax codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/48476/26997

About -4.27 years from now?

@Calvin'sHobbies Already 44 votes !!??

Calvin's Hobbies

I know, I wouldn't have expected that many until the 90's

@Calvin'sHobbies Thanks. So 2010 is already open for answers if anyone wants to?

46 upvotes now (and one down, for some reason)

@trichoplax Yes

My grandpa just texted me to ask if I had a bootleg version of Office 2013.

Do you?

No. I open Word files with Google docs, and I save them using Google docs.

10:40 PM

woo! my auto-visit script worked!

Wow. A true fanatic.

I was just browsing the internet, then BOOM! A codegolf.SE window popped up.

11:01 PM

my browser can do that natively

Oh.

11:41 PM
