Q: How do I say "Thank you, Captain Obvious?"

How do I say "Thank you, Mr. Obvious?" Or is it "Captain Obvious"? Anyway, this is a slang response when someone says something that is known to the other person - and this should be obvious to the other person, too.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

I had the same problem with imgur a while back, changing the server to 8.8.8.8 fixed it.

@TheveryevilROFLcopter that's a perfectly fair and valid rule.

@MartinEnder s/minutes/tens of minutes/

8:36 PM

@MartinEnder assuming stars represent votes for the rule, can 10 stars enact that rule?

Martin Ender

@ConorO'Brien to be honest I think we can actually only suspend for full hours, so we might as well go with that

Conor O'Brien

well, I actually disagree. ಠ_ಠ should be fine

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@PhiNotPi mind using a photo from the red vs blue pixel koth for your blog post?

@MartinEnder can't you suspend for 30min also?

Conor O'Brien

@MartinEnder haha yeah.

PhiNotPi

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ add whatever you want

Martin Ender

8:36 PM

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ only the auto-suspension from flagged messages does that

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@PhiNotPi cool, thanks

@MartinEnder oh, TIL

Martin Ender

(although I haven't tried entering fractional hours)

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

is that a legal thing to test on a willing user?

(just wondering)

Martin Ender

I could, but it's going to leave a record on your account, so I'd rather not

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

okay, cool

esolangs.org/wiki///

This interpreter for the language Bitwise Cyclic Tag was generated using this Haskell program. The BCT program and data can be changed by modifying the strings after (P| and (D| near the beginning. (The empty program and the program containing just 1 are not supported.) As the BCT page suggests is enough for Turing-completeness, it (slowly!) prints out the sequence of deleted data bits as 0 = /, 1 = \.

Destructible Watermelon

hey!

Serg

question, do you guys allow more than one answer from single user on this site ?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

hello

@Serg yes

it's allowed, just you can't have a golfed and ungolfed answer.

What I have is two languages. One's bash, just now found shorter python than already existing one

Destructible Watermelon

8:57 PM

Protip: It doesn't need to be shorter than the existing one.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

yeah, but if not then it needs to be a new approach

Martin Ender

@PhiNotPi define "control flow"

PhiNotPi

@MartinEnder It was a joke, not a real CMC. I don't have a definition for you.

Destructible Watermelon

Control flow

In computer science, control flow (or alternatively, flow of control) is the order in which individual statements, instructions or function calls of an imperative program are executed or evaluated. The emphasis on explicit control flow distinguishes an imperative programming language from a declarative programming language. Within an imperative programming language, a control flow statement is a statement whose execution results in a choice being made as to which of two or more paths should be followed. For non-strict functional languages, functions and language constructs exist to achieve the...

@PhiNotPi well I thought with a proper definition it might be an interesting question :P

Any way to refer to one argument in another optional argument in a function?

i.e. def f(n, r=range(n)):

Destructible Watermelon

I think this was one of the thinks I wished existed...

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

?

*things?

and :( so that doesn't work?

work-around:

def f(n, r=None):
    if r == None: r = range(n)

Martin Ender

is None falsy?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

yes

but range(n) could be [], which is also falsy

Martin Ender

ah okay

9:42 PM

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ instead of "duplicating" the argument in declaration, how about duplicating it in the call to function ? like f(a,range(a))

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

yeah, but I can't do that given the inputs

Serg

And use f(*a) in the function declaration, so that's a[1] and a[2]

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

I wish :/
