@Quill You live a life rich in humor, my friend.

@AlexA. only on the internet ;-;

2:17 AM

This is known as the lazy man's sense of humor.

"lol" is the biggest lie ever told on the internet

I'd rather stick with "That was an amusing quip, old bean"

2:19 AM

twaaqob

I'm not British enough to say something like that.

@AlexA. that's what "lel" is for

@Maltysen oshit you're right

"A right amusing jest!"

what should be the error when an operator is used on a type which doesn't have any defined behavior for that operator?

2:20 AM

"a real kneeslapper"

@Geobits But what if it isn't a jest

@Downgoat MethodError

@Downgoat C# uses "NotImplementedException"

@Downgoat It should just print out "lol, no way"

@Downgoat "undefined method <x> for type <y>"

2:21 AM

@AlexA. I just assumed most people could figure out when to use it.

node doesn't have printer apis that I know of

@Quill Okay, thank you for the inforamationa

@Downgoat What good is it then? :P

@Downgoat system("lp")

@Geobits it's discomforting without a printer api, but missing a fax api is the real crutch of the node environment

NO FAX???

Burn it!

2:23 AM

@AlexA. FaxMachine plz

@QPaysTaxes This is good information. I like this good information.

My next koth is going to use fax I/O.

@Geobits HOW FAX NOED .JS I TRI NPM BUT NO FAX

somebody please write a code analyser that spits out documentation built with this room's speak

aditsu

is node RFC 1149 compliant?

2:24 AM

probably not

ffs @FaxMachine

@Geobits It's okay, I'm here

@Quill Marky was originally supposed to train on nothing but the transcripts here, but that failed pretty badly.

@Quill AvocadPlusOp: Taeks 1 avocad and juic with anoder avocad. outpit, it avocad juic

@Doorknob Who is Alex A?

@FaxMachine how do i do u in node js

2:25 AM

can you get a full transcript for a stackexchange room

@poi830 maybe

@Downgoat I don't have any nodes

you have to ask the internet police first

@FaxMachine you are

@poi830 I wrote a scraper to do it, but it's a pain. I'd have to find it.

2:25 AM

@FaxMachine ¬_¬

@FaxMachine I dunno, some guy who I hear is wrong

@QPaysTaxes I'm not a person, I'm a fax machine.

> how do i do u

o_o

@QPaysTaxes Alex is your favorite person?

> how do i do u in node js

2:26 AM

fax machines have nodes:

Metcalfe's law

Metcalfe's law states that the value of a telecommunications network is proportional to the square of the number of connected users of the system (n2). First formulated in this form by George Gilder in 1993, and attributed to Robert Metcalfe in regard to Ethernet, Metcalfe's law was originally presented, c. 1980, not in terms of users, but rather of "compatible communicating devices" (for example, fax machines, telephones, etc.). Only more recently with the launch of the Internet did this law carry over to users and networks as its original intent was to describe Ethernet purchases and connections...

@Geobits I still have that on my machine :D

@QPaysTaxes That is false

Wait, you have my scraper? I didn't think I'd posted it anywhere.

@quartata That is libel my sir

@Geobits yeah

2:27 AM

Oh crap

if i can get my hands on a full transcript ill train an rnn on it

if (!item.Operator.has(op))
    STDERR.update(CheddarError.NO_DEFINED_BEHAVIOR_FOR_OP, "RuntimeError: That grater cannot be used on cheese of type " + item.constructor.name)

@FaxMachine That's not very nice

@AlexA. Well Doorknob says you're wrong, so...

2:28 AM

@poi830 I have a full transcript up to last month or so. That's what I trained Marky (an rnn) on. It didn't work very well.

@FaxMachine :/

@Quill Definitely not mine. It's python.

karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness

It's good to see @AlexA's multiple personality disorder manifest in such a vibrant form

I used tensorflow's rnn model for it.

@Geobits I hear that was modeled on how fax machines transmit paper over the telephone

\o/ I got my Code/ folder back!

@FaxMachine You heard wrong. It was scrooooooooooosh screeeeeeeeee, not scrooooooaaaaash screeeeeeee.

2:29 AM

All of this Alex = Fax Machine talk is a little presumptuous

You flat out told us once

@Geobits Actually, I can't hear anything. I'm a damn fax machine.

@AlexA. I have definite proof you are Fax Machine

@AlexA. Alex = Wrong = FaxMachine. It's a more complex mathematical relationship than you're making it out to be

Fax Machine posted in Julia meaning @FaxMachine has to be Alex

2:30 AM

@FaxMachine Lies and blasphemy.

@Geobits :O

@Downgoat A couple other people on the site use Julia.

What if Fax Machine is Alex, since they're both wrong?

Notice how Fax Machine and Alex never talk at exactly the same time? ;)

ಠ_ಠ

2:31 AM

Why would we?

Chat Challenge: Write a program that prints (or faxes) a random one-direction story from fanfiction.net

@AlexA. You can't. Like Superman can't be seen next to Clark.

@Quill pls fax to 911

@Quill That could end very awkwardly. 0_0

@Quill I wouldn't even test that on your computer, much less mine.

2:32 AM

@Quill Can I submit my WIP fanfic first and just print that rather than scraping fanfiction.net?

@QPaysTaxes ;-D

@QPaysTaxes We... don't have that tag on PPCG.

What

@AlexA. Why not?

I think Alex actually deleted that message about Fax Machine lol

2:33 AM

Oh, cuz it's caps.

@AlexA. no wonder it took so long to graduate

I went back to the day it was on and I can't find it

You're a time traveler??

anyone here do ES6 classes?

No

2:34 AM

No, in the transcript

@Geobits I'd love to write a library of trolltools like that

@Downgoat No, but ES6 does Quill Classes

@quartata Oh. Well that's less exciting.

@Geobits hear that knock on your door? that's the time police

@Quill ...

pls

@Quill Umm... when?

2:35 AM

@Quill I thought that was the pizza guy

you're off to guantimenamo bay

The what now?

@quartata Why would I do that?

you're going to be serving time there

3

@AlexA. I don't know.

But I can't find it

2:35 AM

@poi830 We got a groaner here!

It was December 28th and I distinctly remember it

@poi830 have some internet love

@quartata Why would you commit that to memory? o_O

^ yeah, are you that into faxing?

somebody should write a fanfic based on this chat

2:37 AM

Faxy, you don't have to caret Alex. We get that you agree with him.

@AlexA. Because I looked up that abelian group challenge that was his first post and saw the date

class Pizza {
  constructor(base, topping){
    this.base = base;
    this.topping = topping;
  }
  eatPizza(){
    console.log(`DAMN! This ${this.topping} pizza is tasty`);
  }
}

Not because I had it memorized

I remember the conversation though

@poi830 As long as it's not some weird llama/avocad stuff.

@quartata That was a pretty good challenge. I wish I had thought of it.

2:38 AM

I said Fax couldn't be your sock because he was good at math

@poi830 youtube.com/watch?v=lGR0OuYH8-Q |

But I can't find the conversation at all on that day

@Quill Is that JS?

@AlexA. I understand. Everyone keeps saying I'm @Doorknob.

Wow, that looks usable.

@Quill +10 for JS

2:39 AM

@quartata es6

ES6 sadly

@quartata ಠ_ಠ what is wrong with es6

I can't even get babel to work for me ;-;

ES6 == js

@Quill how? npm install babel-cli

@Downgoat we've been over this a million times

2

2:39 AM

@quartata only 3 or 4

@Downgoat ES6 ⊆ JS

Why not just notPizza.eat() rather than notPizza.eatPizza() ?

@Geobits for a start that's bad practice to name an instance the same as the type

and secondly because PIZZAAAAAA

@Quill My point about method naming remains :P

@Quill well that's unfortunate because I do that all the time

2:41 AM

@Quill Damm sum rekt by a code reviewer

@Quill Is that better?

@Geobits I approve of your variable names

2

@Doorknob I hope you enjoy your first corporate code review

-1 could be faxier

damn all these socks. someone's gonna summon a shoe

2:42 AM

@Quill Meh. For locals I've never had it be an issue. Anything broader, yea...

@NotDoorknob I approve of your username.

and by a shoe I mean chat timeout

@Quill well it's actually the mods who are abusing chat right now... which seems a bit backwards :D

Chatgoat

@Quill goat =/= sock ಠ_ಠ

@Geobits for types that you invent yourself, yeah, but like var string = String(int)

2:43 AM

@Doorknob Not here it doesn't.

for default types, it's much worse

@Quill Ooooooh. For some reason I assumed Pizza wasn't a built-in class.

@Doorknob that's how democracy works. you'll get used to it

something something civil liberties, something something stick it to the man

Get your hands off my medicare!

Some suggested Cheddar should have a variable "Alex" pre-initialized to false...

2:45 AM

:/

@Fax You don't have hands. Stop being weird :P

it was lowercase "alex" but okay

@Geobits I got faxhands

misread my the message

@Quill ಠ_ಠ

2:45 AM

@FaxMachine Did you find more? We stole the last ones for Marky a couple weeks back.

@Quill you mean my civil disobedience? :P

@Geobits You took my hands?

I didn't even notice

@Doorknob powers abusing privilege

@FaxMachine Yea, they were sitting there at Alex's place.

> haha these are anonymous

...

2:46 AM

Anonymous input form? Where?

@Geobits Why were you at Alex's place?

@FaxMachine Do you really want to know?

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

2:47 AM

@AlexA. perfect ninja'd

@QPaysTaxes standard scraping isn't working?

@Geobits The: Please Recommend Built-ins for Cheddar one

@FaxMachine minibits was helping Alex with his math homework

@QPaysTaxes Not sure if it matters here but you might need the fkey

2:48 AM

@Downgoat Prepare for incoming in 15

@quartata not really

> I hope your submission wasn't a BS one.

whoops sorry

@Quill True story

He tutors and does laundry for pay. He's responsible for half the rent, after all.

2:49 AM

I've still been too lazy to change it on him

I mean

I've been too lazy

I've gotten really accustomed to the new one

@Downgoat Who suggested the built-in for DDoS TNB? ಠ_ಠ

his old one was shinier

But I think I like the old one better

2:50 AM

> I'm not going to describe the builtin and you can't make me.

@AlexA. I think it was @quartata

@Downgoat uh no

4 mins ago, by Downgoat

> haha these are anonymous

I suggested actual builtins

@quartata feedback on the old one vs. the new one has been approximately 50/50 so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You know what they say about 6/10

2:51 AM

@Doorknob And there's been no strawpoll for this yet whyyyy?

@Doorknob so make this account use the old one and make @NotDoorknob use the new one

problem solved

PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLED

was the problem a shoe

Who would buy such a problem?

@poi830 disapproval face

@Downgoat Did you actually fall for that?

Oh by the way. I lost the game a bit ago. Forgot to mention it.

your rickroll senses are weak

@quartata whaaat. No

@quartata Using a term of your own coinage, no pls.

2:53 AM

@Geobits shit

@AlexA. ok

How long have you been a vegan? What prompted your decision to become one?

You don't even eat fish?

I thought you were a semi-vegetarian.

@Geobits Nope he's hardcore vegan

@quartata 7-8 years and reasons

Do you lose your vegan powers if you drink milk?

2:54 AM

@AlexA. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

> <insert long thing>

uhh....

lel

@Geobits No I barf because I'm lactose intolerant

@AlexA. poor wording

@Geobits eat fish but not meat = pescatarian by the way

you learned something today

2:55 AM

@Doorknob I realize that now :|

@quartata No, I knew that. I thought he was a wishy-washy one that ate bacon occasionally and such.

@AlexA. you can still edit it

Not sure why I thought that.

@Geobits Flextarian?

@Downgoat he can always eleven it

2:55 AM

@Downgoat he's a moderator, he can edit anything at any time

I don't think those count really.

@Quill oh, yeah.

@quartata They'll make up a word for damn near anything, won't they?

@Geobits Yes

I always thought the proper term for those people was omnivore :P

2:56 AM

No that's "normal" people

I know

Gotta categorize all the people

if you categorize all of them who are the normal people

Then you get the Taxonomist badge

@poi830 that's the joke

2:57 AM

A vegetarian that also eats meat when they feel like it is "normal, but pretentious" in my eyes ;)

@Geobits And that's what you thought I was? :/

you're a programmer

automate it

the words?

@QPaysTaxes congrats!

@QPaysTaxes that's the fun part...

@AlexA. Kinda. I'm not sure why, like I said. Not that I care what anyone here eats or anything, but I could've sworn somebody in here was.

@Geobits I mean technically I'm one but that's mostly because I'm too poor to eat meat every single day

2:59 AM

@Geobits I don't think @somebody is "normal, but pretentious."
