I don't use PuTTY. It might just be a bug with the software, not the ssh proto itself.
 
ssh hangs for me and terminates automatically if I accidentally click out of terminal. >.<
 
o-o That's probably an option.
 
I'm tantalizingly close to Notable Question (2500 views) for that stupid duck challenge. :P
 
>:U
 
>:U
 
11:03 PM
Raspbian has finished copying to the SD card
 
\o/
Also: NOOBS is still better.
 
uhhhhh
I have encountered a problem
 
o-o
wat problem
 
how do I get the microSD card out of the adapter?
I just cut my fingernails
>_>
 
Use the pad of your thumb and press down.
 
I'm... trying
 
/me can imagine the struggle.
You can also use a paperclip. :P
Don't press too hard though. >.>
 
Seek assistance from someone with fingernails
 
@MartinBüttner I'd actually still bet on non-factoring-based approaches in most langs that have factoring. Specifically, try all reasonable root orders and take the largest one that gives a whole number.
 
hmm, fair enough
I suppose that might already make one of the two existing challenges a dupe of the other

Q: Tips for golfing in D

catWhat general tips do you have for golfing in D? I'm looking for ideas that can be applied to code golf problems in general that are at least somewhat specific to D (e.g. "remove comments" is not an answer). Please post one tip per answer.

 
@AlexA. Shaved off 12 bytes from duck face. ;)
 
Nice!
 
Finally beating JS. ಠ_ಠ
Dammit string compression!
 
I FINALLY GOT THE MICROSD CARD OUT
 
kek
gg
 
11:28 PM
I repeatedly stuck a huge piece of tape on it and yanked really hard
 
I'm really, really tempted to answer a question in VVitsy. >:D
 
putting the microSD card into the pi was a terrifying process
I was afraid of breaking both the card and the pi
 
Yeah. >.> It's scary smol.
 
I read that as "It's a scary smell."
 
When it catches on fire? Yes.
 
11:35 PM
DDoS mitigated \o/
 
\\\\o////
 
RPi is running, and I can see output on my HDMI output
current status: trying to find USB keyboard dongle

Hello
 
hai
 
11:37 PM
how r u ?
 
Good. :D Yourself?
 
Well a minute ago i burned down integrated video card
Glad yr fine
 
o-o Sounds painful.
 
yeah .. i'ts taff situation to figure out
 
Well, I hope you figure it out. :P Welcome to PPCG. :D
 
11:40 PM
i have an ethernet cable .. buned macpro and this atom accer
SuperUser seems to be my field
What is this room about ?
 
PPCG is a place for creating and competing in programming competitions.
If you like to program, you should join us. :)
 
named 19th byte ? any convention there ?
coding is my thing!
 
People call the bar at the end of the golf course the 19th hole (since golf courses have 18 holes). The byte part comes from the fact that we measure code size in bytes.
 
So I just started playing Game Dev Tycoon:
@Doorknob
They didn't give it all 10s smite them
 
Code golf is where you try to make your code as short as possible. You should take a look around the site and see if it looks like fun. :)
 
11:45 PM
i was thinking it's convention alike 25th frame
but hah!
making code as short and sharp-minded also my thing
 
:D
 
@animaacija relevant
 
RPi is up and running :D
 
tells animaacija to search 'is:a jelly' in search bar
wait, idk if that's a good idea
 
I don't think very many questions contain the word "jelly," so a general search without limiting to answers should be sufficient.
 
11:48 PM
@Upgoat I didn't get u.
 
?
 
no search resaults
even googled
 
this is what i meant though
 
ouh ... interesting ..
 
Several of the folks here have created their own programming languages specifically designed for code golf.
One example of that is Jelly, which @Dennis made.
 
11:57 PM
I'm Vitsy's proud papa. :D
 
@VoteToClose damnit, i was gonna include it in my short list
 
@Upgoat Short list?
