Mathematica is also ludicrously verbose

I guess you could make a prototype Giza number of the length of the input number (eg 121 for len 3), and repeatedly subtract one-filled numbers until you match. Not sure if that would be shorter in most languages though.

Nathan Merrill

you'd make a prototype giza number, then subtract the two, and check if all digits are the same

Geobits

That works too, yeah.

Or check for divisiblity by 111, etc. Whichever is shorter.

Nathan Merrill

is there any base where all numbers of form 11111... are divisible by the same number?

excluding 1

Geobits

Hmm, doubt it

Anonymous

5:20 PM

@DrMcMoylex We just made the new tag, and you didn't use it? Shame on you.

Nathan Merrill

lol

...this is actually interesting. I can't find a single base where 11 and 111 are divisible by the same number

in essence, I believe that n+1 and n^2 + n + 1 share no common factors

for any n

Rainbolt

Tomorrow's new OEIS sequence: bases where x and y are divisible by the same number

Dennis

@NathanMerrill And there isn't any. If d divides both n and bn + 1, it also divides 1.

Rainbolt

Is that a good challenge idea?

Nathan Merrill

@Dennis ah, makes sense

so basically, #### and ####1 share no factors where #### is any sequence of digits

@Rainbolt what's X, what's Y, and what number are they divisible by?

there seems to be a bunch of dimensions to that

hard to sequence

Geobits

5:31 PM

X and Y are representations of a number, and you check to see if they share a factor (and in what bases). For example, given X=4 Y=10, they share a factor in base 10, but not base 5.

Hard to sequence, but not hard to output a list of bases as a challenge.

Nathan Merrill

right :)

Rainbolt

Given positive integers a, b, c, d, output the first a bases where b and c are divisible by the same number greater than 1, beginning at base d. Nobody cares about the number that they are divisible by, just that they are divisible by some number.

And I guess none of the digits in b and c can be greater than d, because otherwise the number would make no sense in that base.

@El'endiaStarman In my case, most of what I do is answer questions or be a part of the chat...

Q: How to tag "smallest compiled output" challenges?

I was working on this challenge when I realised I'd misinterpreted the rules; it wasn't code-golf, unlike most challenges are.

(Sorry if I sent those messages twice)

trichoplax

7:36 PM

@Rainbolt 1366x768, so looking to increase to at least 2560x1080 but wondering if it's worth going for more

Geobits

Oh right. Are we talking laptop, desktop, what?

Rainbolt

@trichoplax You are using exactly what I was using before I upgraded to a 2560x1440. I was overwhelmed by the tiny window size for a while, and for coding I actually wish my resolution was slightly lower sometimes (or the monitor was slightly larger... either would work fine). For gaming though, I love it.

trichoplax

Looking for a monitor, rather than a laptop screen. I'm looking at 24 inch minimum

What minimum size would you recommend to make 2560x1440 practical?

tuskiomi

@trichoplax have you considered a 144 hz / 120 hz monitor over a hi-res monitor?

Geobits

I've got 21"s at 1080, so 24" makes sense to bump it a little, but I don't know how necessary it is.

trichoplax

7:40 PM

@tuskiomi I'm looking for 72Hz minimum. Do you find a significant improvement with higher?

Rainbolt

@trichoplax Unless your eyes are better than mine, I would recommend 27". I have some trouble with even that, but I'm starting to get used to it.

trichoplax

I'm definitely not aiming above 27", so I guess 1080 will probably be enough then

Rainbolt

I changed my monitor from 60hz to 144hz and noticed a difference dragging windows around on my desktop. I can see the shadows of the window at 60hz, and can't see them at 144hz. I haven't tried 72hz.

Yodle

@Geobits I'm losing by 1 byte of your Java answer in the Giza challenge :s

tuskiomi

@trichoplax much, you have much more improvement in the fluidity of the screen, you start noticing window animations, the mouse actually moves, as opposed to a teleporting type motion, and if you play any game that isn't considered casual, you'll have a much better experience, imo. I cannot compare it to 4k / UhiRes, as I've not tried that yet, aside from my phone. If you're strictly programming, I'd reccomend a widescreen display.

Lembik

7:43 PM

@Geobits I am not sure that is then uniform

Rainbolt

What is "UhiRes"?

Lembik

@Zgarb interesting thanks

TimmyD

@Rainbolt Ultra-Hi Res

trichoplax

I don't game so I hadn't thought about super high refresh rates but if it makes a difference even for interacting with a window then I'll look at them.

tuskiomi

If you're not gaming, then I'd lean toward the other side. Take my advice with a grain of salt, as I've not tried any of the ultra hi res displays for an extensive time.

trichoplax

7:46 PM

@tuskiomi By widescreen do you mean 16:9, which seems to be standard now, or 21:9, the new extra widescreen?

Anyone who has an ultrawide, how is it for media consumption?

tuskiomi

I usually use display modifications to separate a 16:9 space and the extra sidebar for higher productivity because of this. My monitor of choice for movies, videos, etc. is not a widescreen, however.

Shebang

Because I was thinking of buying either 2 x 1080p monitors or 1 2560 x 1080 ultrawide

I know the HDMI output supports 4k @ 30Hz

Rainbolt

I know that a GTX 980 TI can handle Planet Coaster at 2560x1440, and a GTX 1080 can handle Diablo III, Overwatch, and Minecraft with SEUS shaders (which ends up being even more intensive than Overwatch on ultra) 2560x1440.

vosotros is considered somewhat demeaning
