@thepiercingarrow well it is being converted to machine code to be executed at all but optimizations happen at runtime, and considering its JIT nature probably not. I might write a C++ version of cheddar
I could just as well make it 3 is not a function. But essentially each class has their casting properties and I'd need to call the cast to string, which you do not want to do in an error, unless you wanna have an error throwing the error
take for example: "a".b.c() that is tokenized to: "a", b, c, () in that case c does not resolve to a function until it's been looked up into a scope. The name is passed to aafter the evaluation stack begins. The name to error is passed to the scope manager, which returns the result. If the result is not found, I'll still need to throw an error which is why the name is a
and also showing the variable name is easier for debugging
@Maltysen if the variable were to return nil (e.g. if it was declared var myvar;). And I were to run myvar(). You'd get Runtime Error: nil is not a function which is just about the least helpful error message I could do. if you were to get myvar is not a function that at least gives you some info on what's going on

I love when someone comes in and say "Hey, remember when I talked about the meeting you had to setup for next week? I kinda fucked up, so you have to be ready for 11 o'clock. Thanks bud'!" -_-
In the classic days of Starbucks before these newfangled sticker-printers and wireless drivethrough headset palmtop scanner dealies, in the heady days of 2000-ish, Starbucks' had a concise system for describing beverages with a strict syntax and accompanying encoded form.

@aditsu Someone tried to quine with cat. (S)he cheated. I downvoted. I started discussion in comments, until the opportunity to go to chat came on. I went to chat. (S)he complained because I didn't clutter the comments. (S)he said (s)he didn't cheat multiple times. (S)he said "the source code is read by the interpreter, so no, it's not a cheat." I said "think of every character as a call to a function that prints its argument. The character is the argument. The function, eventually, gets
called for every byte of the program. Thus, the program reads its own source code."
Input:
An integer (or a string representing an integer).
Output:
Sum of the input itself + the length of the input + each individual digit of the item.
nr + nr-length + {sum of individual digits} = output
For example:
Input: 99
Output: 99 (nr) + 2 (nr-length) + (9 + 9) (digits) -> 119

@EʀɪᴋᴛʜᴇGᴏʟғᴇʀ You can golf (s)he down to they to save 1 byte - if anyone complains just tell them it has hundreds of years of precedence in English usage...
@LeakyNun the problem with (s)he, s:he and the like, is that I will always read them as she and will, in my head, point to a gender (f in this case) instead of leaving it as a blank case
@trichoplax I really don't care about golfing messages. No, I like it as (s)he or (S)he sometimes, and sometimes as They or they. You can't golf such a thing. I maintain appearance on my posts/comments/messages when "golfing" them.
@trichoplax Yeah, did you know that my reply was light-hearted though? Some things can't be golfed, i.e. the space here: @trichoplax Yeah, or this: @trichoplax -> @tri.
@Eʀɪ I think the first three letters works (anything less doesn't), although my misjudgement of your previous comments makes me suspect you already know this...
Well, I'm trying to make my 3 first characters unique. I think they're unique enough currently. (confirmed)
Guess what, @zʏᴀ is not very active for days.
@zʏᴀ You've got an edit history!!! Also, your first 3 chars are unique. Yes, I still remeber when wizzwizz4 posted that message for the "Mod Sandbox" :D:D:D:D
In the arcade version of the game, Pac-Man eats pac-dots. However, in this challenge, he's hungry for alphanumeric characters and punctuation in a string.
Your task is to create a function that feeds Pac-Man a string, evaluates if he can eat it or not, and returns the string with Pac-Man's locat...

Introduction
Your mission in life is simple: Prove people wrong on the internet!
To do this you usually carefully analyze their statements and point out the contradiction in them.
It's time to automate this, but as we are lazy, we want to prove people wrong with the least effort (read: shortest ...
