Oh that's a good one. Any more you can think of off the top of your head?

Not really, but I'm hardly the big regexer around here.

I'd probably check regexp classes for different languages to get an idea.

Mars Ultor

@Mego I should get my bot to do all of those

@GamrCorps str.exec() (iterator)

@GamrCorps str.match in python pretty much adds a ^ to the start

@Geobits That's Marky doing an Adele cover.

@MarsUltor thanks that's a good one!

Mars Ultor

@ZachGates Why nuke?

zyabin101 the Hated

@ZachGates It has, and it is called Delete Repo.

Ok, so the takeaway from the latest Marky brain is that if you pump his head full of movie quotes, he likes to passive aggressively threaten to kill people.

@MarsUltor Then you can't push even forcefully, because it's an empty repository.

Mars Ultor

@zyabin101theHated Well, except for the README and LICENSE

zyabin101 the Hated

@MarsUltor Even better, create automatic README, LICENSE, and gitignore. But that becomes less automated by now.

As you have to choose a LICENSE and select the main language for the project to create a gitignore.

Sed

sed (stream editor) is a Unix utility that parses and transforms text, using a simple, compact programming language. sed was developed from 1973 to 1974 by Lee E. McMahon of Bell Labs, and is available today for most operating systems. sed was based on the scripting features of the interactive editor ed ("editor", 1971) and the earlier qed ("quick editor", 1965–66). sed was one of the earliest tools to support regular expressions, and remains in use for text processing, most notably with the substitution command. Other options for doing "stream editing" include AWK and Perl. == History of sed... ==

<- no-ify bookmarklet

Sherlock9

@zyabin101theHated The trouble is that text files (in which you are probably saving your code) are 2D and you'd need slices (planes) to get to 3D. So multiple text files

Or since RGB is cube, use that

Sherlock9

Now that I think about it, this actually an acceptable challenge. Input (current rep, rep goal) and knowing what activities give (or take) how much rep, output one or more paths to the goal rep

Justin

Are you going to include downvotes?

Zach Gates

^

downvotes on your own posts or on other's answers

Sherlock9

@Justin Probably. The easiest path to 96 from 88 is and upvote on one of your answers and a downvote on another of your answers

Zach Gates

easiest by what standard

Justin

7:15 AM

At least it's not "output all paths"

Sherlock9

@ZachGates Two moves

Zach Gates

shortest path*

Justin

Shortest path: SE employee manually changes rep

Alternatively: Serial upvoting reversed

(not sure if that would be possible to do that, though)

If you got 192 rep one day and the extra 8 were serial, then you placed a 200 rep bounty to reduce your rep down to 96, then the serial upvotes were removed, perhaps that could happen

Zach Gates

wot

Justin

Hey, we're looking for the shortest path, right? ;-)

Zach Gates

7:20 AM

so 96 + 192 + 8 - 200 - 8?

Justin

Yes, except for the purposes of the discussion, you started at 96 rep (on the way down after - 200) and then lost 8.

I think it would be possible

Sherlock9

Alternatively, you could just get 192 normally and then post a 200 rep bounty. I'm not sure how to quickly get 192 rep, but it's possible

Justin

@Sherlock9 But how would that take you from 96 to 88 rep in one step?

Anonymous

@Justin I'm not sure how you could get 8 rep that would be taken away through serial voting removal. AFAIK, the only kind of serial activity the system looks for that would also affect another user's rep is voting on questions and answers, which is +/- 5 or 10, respectively.

Zach Gates

@Sherlock9 19 answer upvotes & an edit (or 38 question upvotes)

I thought suggested edits wouldn't work because he was over the threshold, but I misremembered the number

Mars Ultor

7:24 AM

Finally :D

Justin

20 answer upvotes, 4 downvotes; that should be 192 rep. Then 1 answer upvote brings you up to 200 rep, so the serial reversal on that upvotes (also on a bunch that were not counted due to rep limit) should be -8 rep, right?

Anonymous

If a user has > 4k rep, they can't use suggested edits for 2 rep intervals, and thus would have to get the +2 from accepting an answer

Justin

@Mego Alternatively +10 -2 -2 -2 -2

@Justin Ah, good point. I didn't think about serial voting removing rep interacting with the cap.

@MarsUltor This one is a dupe. The accepted answer from the original is this:

76

A: Timeout on a Python function call

You may use the signal package if you are running on UNIX: In [1]: import signal # Register an handler for the timeout In [2]: def handler(signum, frame): ...: print "Forever is over!" ...: raise Exception("end of time") ...: # This function *may* run for an indetermined time...
