11:00 PM
I kind of wish I had a sister :)
 
@Zizouz212 Younger?
 
@flawr Yep
 
@Zizouz212 I have three
 
@Zizouz212 I have two
Swap you one for one.
2
 
∞∞ ∞∞
 
11:00 PM
Would you be able to handle my bros?
 
@Zizouz212 I knew it! I know what younger brothers are like. Because I am one of them harr harr.
 
They are incredibly annoying
 
@RikerW Use zero-widths between each space.
 
@Zizouz212 Probably not.
 
Two brothers. 7 and 8 years older.
 
11:01 PM
@FlagAsSpam I just give up. :(
 
Fun fact: this is valid JS: "Hi!".sup()
 
@FlagAsSpam I always see a horse shoe.
 
So what kind of muffins should I make (that is not chocolate)?
 
11:01 PM
Shameless self promotion. :P ^^^^
 
Ooh... Carrot muffins!
 
@Zizouz212 Carrot cake!
 
@Zizouz212 Onion.
 
Carrot muffins!
 
@ETHproductions "<sup>Hi!</sup>", right?
 
11:02 PM
@Zizouz212 Caret muffins hihihi=)
 
@flawr Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clop...
 
@RikerW o_O
 
Really good, trust me.
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Sup Yep
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Jolf should have .smallCaps()
 
11:02 PM
I eat weird food.
@FlagAsSpam Good idea.
 
^^^
 
@FlagAsSpam It sort of does
 
I'm going to head out :)
 
@Zizouz212 NOOOO!
 
@Zizouz212 Bye.
Anybody for PPCG Minecraft Server? maybe pvp
 
11:03 PM
Ugh.
 
Cu guys.
Good night.
 
I don't know what to doo...
 
@flawr Queue you later!
 
Baking muffins?
 
"What is this place?".makeCamelCaseWithSmallCapsAndSpanishStylePunctuation()
 
11:04 PM
hint: minecraft is better.
 
I'll take a picture of them when I'm done :)
 
@FlagAsSpam Queue is such a strange word.
 
@flawr Think about what the word "lighght" would sound like.
 
@flawr somewhat nsfw: xkcd.com/853
 
11:04 PM
@FlagAsSpam Imagine a German pronouncing it.
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Make a builtin for that though, like one letter
 
@flawr It's just pronounced as "lite". O.o Because gh is situationally silent. (I've never figured out why)
 
Queueueueueueueueueueueue!
 
11:06 PM
@ETHproductions "Kewwwwwwwww!"
 
@Zizouz212 Mini-challenge: Take an int from -2 to 2 and output the following: (code-golf)
2 -> "cupcake"
1 -> "pancake"
0 -> "cakecake"
-1 -> "cakepan"
-2 -> "cakecup"
 
@RikerW nevermind...
 
@FlagAsSpam It is an actual word???
 
@Calvin'sHobbies Working on it ...
 
Maybe I'll make Pancakes instead...
I'll do that.
See ya later peeps! :D
 
11:08 PM
@Zizouz212 Great idea too!
@Zizouz212 Cu.
 
@RikerW which letter?
 
Guess what I just learned? Moving a lone line of code from one section to another doesn't actually change what it does. ಠ_ಠ
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ ᴇ
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ all the letters
 
@flawr No - but it was a question in my english class. ಠ_ಠ
 
11:10 PM
@RikerW thanks!
:P
 
@ETHproductions I'm not sure what situation you've got there. What do you mean by "section"?
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ It doesn't work with O.
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ o looks funny.
 
@FlagAsSpam Oje.
 
11:12 PM
@FlagAsSpam screen shot?
 
It got quiet
 
@El'endiaStarman Not inside any curly brackets. Just an arbitrary line of code sitting under a comment.
 
11:15 PM
@Calvin'sHobbies
def f(i):y="cake";z="cup";w="pan";l=[y*2,w+y,z+y,y+z,y+w];return l[i]
 
@ETHproductions Why is that surprising? If it doesn't affect what comes before or after......wait, what language?
 
JS
I moved it from one place to another and expected it to accomplish a different task...
 
Such as...?
 
@RikerW Cakey
 
Could probably be golfed more, but idc.
 
11:17 PM
@El'endiaStarman I guess the problem was I was trying to apply the same code to a different variable. Only moving the code doesn't really accomplish that.
 
Hi! I'm a SE user!
 
@SuperJedi224 Try typing @mon: Nobody comes up
 
You didn't specify it had to be at the beginning either
 
I'll make things another time :)
 
11:23 PM
@Calvin'sHobbies Jolf, 41 bytes
 
@MartinBüttner Hmm. My name in the oneboxed chatroom description is red highlighted like a ping. Do they really check for that or is it just highlighting all "@Calvin"'s?
 
@Calvin'sHobbies probably the latter
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ What is the "on" doing?
 
Setting n to the value after.
WE'RE NUMBER ONE
 
11:26 PM
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ ....often. :P
 
@Doᴡ Your challenge got to 1 on HNQ/
 
DON'T RUIN THE HYPE!
 

 PPCG Minecraft Server

Can someone else paste "https://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/24544/test-calvinshobbies-test" into a message?
 
The questions I spend a minute writing always get the highest on HNQ :p

Did u get pinged
 
@BlockCoder1392 Beat you :)
 
@BlockCoder1392 No but it does red-highlight all the "@Calvin'sHobbies"'ss
 
OH wow

 PPCG Minecraft Server

I wonder if it would work if the oneboxed xkcd hovertext had an "@username" in it...
Or other oneboxed stuff
 
11:30 PM
That would be inpossible
someone create a challenge with an @?
 
Sandbox post would be better.
 
I will!
 
Or sandboxed.
 
No one make a challenge with @
I have the perfect idea!
Because I can blame @Doorknob冰 and @AlexA. for everything. >:D
 
11:36 PM
MINI-CHALLENGE: Write the character @ without @ appearing anywhere in the code.
 
@Zizouz212 Both
 
@FlagAsSpam You mean like print to output?
 
print chr(64)
 
@quartata cpucakes
 
@quartata Making smoothies now.
:P
@quartata def f(i):y="cake";z="cup";w="pan";l=[y*2,w+y,z+y,y+z,y+w];return l[i]
 
11:37 PM
@FlagAsSpam pl 3 bytes 64ó
 
@Zizouz212 Oh wow, the fact that it's 64 is super convenient.
 
Nah, print chr(42) :P
 
*
 
11:39 PM
@El'endiaStarman 26^N - your forced . betrays you.
 
@FlagAsSpam It's a toroidal language.
 
@El'endiaStarman Make a single line autocorrect thingydingy
 
Which makes it far cooler than yours. :P
 
@El'endiaStarman I can access shell, eval, and file I/O. eyebrow raise
I have class hierarchy.
 
@FlagAsSpam Doesn't affect that fact that it's cooler.
 
11:40 PM
Are there 3 distinct letters where all 9 arrangements (123 132 213 231 312 321) is a word or common acronym? I started thinking cup, cpu, upc..
 
@Calvin'sHobbies not?
 
@FlagAsSpam nto?
 
What's tno, then?
 
Wait, no, tno is a problem.
 
What's "ont"?
 
11:41 PM
Hahaha, three different challenges to that idea. :P
 
ONT may refer to: Ontario International Airport (IATA code ONT), in Ontario, California, United States Ontario (Ont.), traditional abbreviation for the Canadian province of Ontario; although ON is the proper postal abbreviation Optical Network Terminal, an interface between a company's fiber optic network and premises wiring Ontario Northland Railway, a Canadian railroad Ordo Novi Templi, Order of the New Templars, an occult anti-semitic society founded 1907 by Lanz von Liebenfels Ontario Network Television, the main predecessor of the now-defunct Baton Broadcast System (Canada) Obshchenatsional...
 
> denoting an individual or cell of a specific type.
A trans-Neptunian object (TNO; also written transneptunian object) is any minor planet in the Solar System that orbits the Sun at a greater average distance (semi-major axis) than Neptune, 30 astronomical units (AU). Twelve minor planets with a semi-major axis greater than 150 AU and perihelion greater than 30 AU are known, which are called extreme trans-Neptunian objects (ETNOs). The first trans-Neptunian object to be discovered was Pluto in 1930. It took until 1992 to discover a second trans-Neptunian object orbiting the Sun directly, (15760) 1992 QB1. As of July 2015 over 1,650 trans-Neptunian...
 
I'd say that counts as an uncommon acronym
 
Has to be a common acronym. I'm not sure Ontario International Airport for ONT counts.
 
AFAIR
TTBOMK
Why is "World Wide Web" shorter to say then "WWW"?
 
11:44 PM
@RikerW Because english.
 
'cause "W" is three syllables.
 
Ninja'd?
 
Mine's more specific. :P
 
@El'endiaStarman No, like why does the acronym even exist?
 
:26578788 Yeah. Ontario maybe, but tno is obscure. We could define common as "no one will need to look this up"
 
11:44 PM
@FlagAsSpam Accepted answer.
@Calvin'sHobbies TNG
 
@RikerW Quicker to type.
 
@Calvin'sHobbies That was weird.... That didn't ping me
 
There, you shouldn't need to look TNG up.
 
@RikerW This action sums up SE issues with accepted answers. xD
 
Anyways we could maybe make that a challenge with /usr/share/dict/
 
Actual accepted answer on Meta SE
 
@quartata I WISH! (In response to the title.)
 
Yes, we get paid with your agony. =) — casperOne Feb 26 '13 at 20:02

A: Choose your own swag - the craziest contest idea ever! What were we thinking?

FlagAsSpamAll I Want for Swagmas is to be Non-Beta So, I attend the wonderful site called PPCG: Programming Puzzles and Code Golf, although, to be fair, we're much more than that. We're a community that supports clever uses (and exploitations) of programming languages. Some of us have even MADE programmin...

Because this is what I think of when I read "MetaSE" now.
 
Damn it, we are now down to 7.9 questions per day, not 8.5. :(
 
I feel stupid but I can't solve the anagram for ocean:
Ohh
What?
 
canoe?
 
^^^^^^everyone on the site should upvote that
 
@BrainSteel Yeah

Thank you @NewSandboxedPosts.
 
Hello @RikerW.
 
Why did you reply to my thank you?
 
11:53 PM
@BrainSteel Hi
 
@AlexA. are you @ಠ_ಠ?
 
Because I don't like reply buttons, that's why.
Hi @AlexA.!
 
@RikerW I am not. Fax Machine is my sock puppet account but I have no affiliation with ಠ_ಠ.
 
Okay.
Who does own @ಠ_ಠ?
 
@FlagAsSpam Brainsteel has become sentient now? uh oh
 
11:55 PM
@AlexA. Wait Fax Machine actually is you?
Oh I assumed you were kidding
 
@RikerW The moderators know who it is but we can't share personal account information like that per the moderator agreement.
@quartata I was not.
 
aww
 
That's strange.
Fax Machine seems to be much better at math than you.
:P
 
@BrainSteel Haven't seen you in here for a while. Did you have a pleasant holiday season and New Year's?
 
Thank you for the very thorough and intriguing explanation! :) — Fax Machine Dec 31 '15 at 5:06

Out of character
 
11:56 PM
@quartata ಠ_ಠ
 
Come on midnight UTC, I want to star more posts
 
ಠ_ಠ is what I would have expected instead of :)
 
ಠ_ಠ
ಠ_ಠ
ಠ_ಠ
 
@quartata FaxMachine is the only other person to post in Julia, so...
 
Can we make a meta post... about a meta post?
 
11:57 PM
ಠ_ಠ
 
@FlagAsSpam Yes of course....
 
@AlexA. 'Twas lovely. I hope all you guys had lovely holidays too!
 
<h1>ಠ_ಠ</h1>
 
@El'endiaStarman wow mod can't even markdown
 
@quartata Given that I wrote that challenge, I'd say Fax Machine and I are about equally matched in our mathematical abilities. :P
 
11:57 PM
@quartata #ಠ_ಠ
 
@AlexA. I think you paid Calvin to write that challenge for you.
 
Because I was thinking that I might flip over my MetaSE answer to Community Wiki and posting it on CodeGolf.SE.
No idea if that's allowed, though. xD
 
does Winterbash end this UTC day?
 
11:58 PM
@Calvin'sHobbies Of course it is @AlexA. then ...
 
@Calvin'sHobbies You could make it into a business. Write challenges for people in exchange for money.
 
@El'endiaStarman ..
I don't know, the way it is written doesn't scream World Big Dosa at me
 
@Doᴡɴɢᴏᴀᴛ 2 minutes ish?
 
@FlagAsSpam wait what
 
1
 
11:59 PM
shit
 
:( 8 rep away from rep cap
 
brb getting last hat i wanted
 
Farewell, Winter Bash. Hello cold, hatless heads.

I screenshotted my favorites, so I can keep them.
 
Oh well.
 
11:59 PM
@AlexA. I would so do that. I'm not sure if anyone would actually pay though :P (And SE might have fussy plagairism rules?)
 
I'll go out with my "Living in the Future" hat
