Q: Is there any way to make programming in Malbolge any easier?

Andrew Cooke had to create a genetic algorithm to come up with the first "Hello World" program for Malbolge two years after it was created. Hisashi Iizawa was able to create a loop version eight years after it was created. Is there an easier way of creating a "Hello World" program? If I wanted to...

No answers =P

I was hoping it would show from the onebox

So couldn't you just slap on a popularity-contest tag on any question to work around that closure?

The winning criteria just can't be something completely subjective by author like "I'll mark the prettiest as the winner".

A: The state of the popularity contest tag

Keep It, but... ...we should definitely update e.g. the tag info. The recent discussions have not been unproductive, and I think we have better guidelines than ever before but at the moment they are still all buried in meta questions/answers. Example: As far as I know it is the first time that...

200_success

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Are you naked?

Alex A.

Always

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@200_success I am clothed.

Geobits

Nudity is optional. Towels are available.

Alex A.

12:34 AM

@200_success No, we also require objective validity criteria, i.e. "what makes an answer to this popularity contest valid"? More often than not, popularity contests are closed as too broad.

VoteToClose

I feel like I am.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Alex A.

I'm naked underneath my clothes

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

shh don't scare it off!

DJ McGoathem

@Geobits I mean, since everyone will probably still be in their own home, nudity actually will be optional.

Geobits

@DJMcGoathem That's what I said, isn't it? :P

200_success

12:35 AM

I'll pretend to understand your standards. My next question is, why waste an off-topic slot on that? Why don't you close as "Unclear what you are asking" instead?

At least, I assume people have towels available.

@200_success Lot's of popcons are popcons not because it makes the most sense for the challenge, but because someone goes "Hey here's a fun programming thing. It's not a challenge, so I'll just say most votes win so that I don't have to flesh out all the details."
