The Nineteenth Byte

@LeakyNun buenísimo is more common. óptimo is more formal, more math-like. Besides, buenísimo is superlativo absoluto ("very good"), whereas óptimo is superlativo relativo ("the best (of all)")

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

i was expecting it was, but just in case

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC whois.icann.org/en

@quartata :/ fixed

Leaky Nun

12:05 AM

@LuisMendo I see, superlativo absoluto vs superlativo relativo only exist in this adjective?

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun :-) I'm sure you'll soon reduce that byte count. Jelly is always shorter

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

The first use of super logout I saw was malicous.

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo look at my explanation and see if you can draw any idea for golfing

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

Stuxnet now available on github: github.com/Laurelai/decompile-dump

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun No, for all of them. The only peculiarity here is that the relativo has a special form. In general, with say the adjective bonito, it would be: muy bonito / el más bonito (very pretty / the prettiest)

Apollo 11 now available on github: github.com/chrislgarry/Apollo-11

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo so usually el mas xxx is relativo?

no wonder I hear bellisimo

quartata

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC You do know this is from 2011 right?

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun Yep. Like in English: "the most beautiful" etc

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@quartata ...yup

Luis Mendo

12:08 AM

@LeakyNun Oh yes, -ísimo is like "muy"

quartata

No I mean the repo.

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo I don't think absoluto exists in English then?

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun Not as a suffix like -isimo. Yes as muy / very

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@LuisMendo yes, that's true I spek (a small bit) teh spanish 2

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo I thought it is stronger than "very"

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC obfuckscated spelling looks nothing like spanish

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

12:10 AM

@LeakyNun no, seriously, I use cat speak when I have very basic language or something stupid to say.

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun It's about the same actually. Perhaps a little more emphatical, yes

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

I actually knew that fact.

@LeakyNun much stronger

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo and I am having a hard time translating bellisimo into English while I know exactly what it means

wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=bellisimo

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

> obfuckscated

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun Very beautiful / very pretty / very handsome / very cute?

Leaky Nun

12:11 AM

> gorgeous, lovely, beautiful

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

10/10 i'm using that from now on

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo como lo dije es mucho mas fuerte que "very"

speaking of that, how would you translate "mucho mas"?

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ ^

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

?

I'm mexican yes, but I don't speak spanish. Why are you asking me?

Leaky Nun

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ it means he agrees that he'll use that from now on

@LeakyNun a lot more / much more. Context?

Leaky Nun

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC hablamos / estamos hablando (drop the nosotros), un sitio web

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

12:13 AM

it's actually fairly common, especially in southern california

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC fun

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@LeakyNun mi español es muy mal

Leaky Nun

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC I'm just helping you

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@LeakyNun thanks, tho

Leaky Nun

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ I see

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun %11 please <-- ?

Leaky Nun

12:15 AM

@LuisMendo like everyone knows that it means modulo by 11

Luis Mendo

But % may not be universal for modulo

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

tqdm is a python module that let's you turn any for loop into a progress bar instantly. it's fast too

github.com/tqdm/tqdm

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo please

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

</shameless (non-self)promotion>

Helka Homba

@LeakyNun I expect many think % means percent

Leaky Nun

12:16 AM

@HelkaHomba and %11 means percent 11?

@LeakyNun yes...? it's an english site

or do you mean the ethnicity?

Leaky Nun

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC look, people come from everywhere

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@LeakyNun hai

Leaky Nun

12:17 AM

What does "please" in "bitch please" actually mean?

Like I can understand it

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

i honestly have no clue

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@LeakyNun Not against diversity - at least some people are native enlgish

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

i don't think anybody does

Leaky Nun

@trichoplax (please see above when you are here)

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC I wasn't asking if there exists any native English speaker here

quartata

@LeakyNun I think it's supposed to be similar to "Oh, please"

Leaky Nun

12:18 AM

I was calling for help

@quartata flag as not an answer

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun It is "comment" in Matlab / Octave

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@LeakyNun I am.

quartata

? How isn't that an answer

I meant similar in meaning

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

he doesn't understand the meaning of that though

"oh, please spare me your theatrics/drama/annoyances"

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo por favor

Helka Homba

12:19 AM

@LeakyNun Still can be clearer. Just sayin'

quartata

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Yeah, like that.

@HelkaHomba ^

@LeakyNun ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Alright, updated

12:20 AM

Much better :-)

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo looks like you didn't see what I said

1. see if my explanation gives you any idea

2. how would you translate "mucho mas"

Luis Mendo

7 mins ago, by Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun a lot more / much more. Context?

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo "por eso y por mucho mas"

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun I saw it. Didn't understand much. Let's see again

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo the multiset symmetric difference trick may help you

Luis Mendo

12:22 AM

@LeakyNun Ah, that's trickier. A direct translation will sound strange. Literally "because of that and much more". But I'd say something like "for that and many more reasons"

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo that coincides with this, thanks

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun MATL doesn't have "reduce". Only some functions that are reducing per-se, like "sum of an array" (reduce-sum)

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo time for a new command

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun Nah. It would be too big a change. "Reduce" it's not a normal function but a sort of function-function. MATL doesn't have those

@LeakyNun Haha, you and your Julio

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo ...

@LuisMendo so cumulative sum is like another function?

Luis Mendo

12:27 AM

@LeakyNun Yes. Just a normal function. There are also cumulative max, few others

Leaky Nun

I see

Luis Mendo

The function just happens to have two chars. But it's an atom

Leaky Nun

sure

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC just fyi, don't reply to people with the caret. You can just caret it.

uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ but then I'm careting the wrong post

like if someone already posted a message in between

Leaky Nun

12:28 AM

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC just reply with +1

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@uoɥʇʎPʎzɐɹC then do multiple carets

what i hust went in SO and found a question with sinus and cosinus

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

?

@ASCII-only you mean "i just found a question about sines and cosines on SO"?

ASCII-only

12:32 AM

no the OP had bad spelling

idek why they even mentioned "sinus" and "cosinus"

Releasing Helium Nuclei

İn Türkiş sine and cosine are "sinüs" and "kosinüs"

Leaky Nun

@ASCII-only so using the Latin name is bad spelling

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@ASCII-only link?

Leaky Nun

12:50 AM

@LuisMendo Does your complex use arbitrary precision integers?

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun No. Just standard double for the real and the imaginary parts. So integers are only guaranteed up to 2^53 in either the real or imaginary part

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo why not make it arbitrarily precise?

Luis Mendo

@LeakyNun Because that would be a lot of work :-) MATL is based on MATLAB (or Octave), which doesn't have arbitrary-precision integers

Leaky Nun

@LuisMendo oh, right

ASCII-only

@LuisMendo wat how does matlab not have arbitrary precision

Luis Mendo

12:53 AM

@ASCII-only Yes, it should :-) Well, I guess it's because it's more oriented to numerical computations, engineering-like, where real/complex numbers are most often used, rather than integers

Alex A.

I'm sure Matlab has an add-on with arbitrary precision arithmetic

Octave can probably call into GMP

Luis Mendo

@AlexA. Yes, but symbolic

Alex A.

Oh, Matlab has the symbolic math toolkit

Luis Mendo

Yep. But it's cumbersome to use for variable-precision arithmetic. You'd need to use symbolic variables. There is no "big integer" or similar data type

Alex A.

Q: Increase reputation awarded for questions

It has come to my attention that the amount of reputation awarded for questions can be adjusted on a per-site basis. For example, Stack Apps awards +10 reputation for question upvotes. As you probably already know, we currently award +5 reputation, as do most Stack Exchange sites, including Stack...

:P

Luis Mendo

Nah. Meta doesn't count

Alex A.

Oh right, I posted that. I mean non-meta.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

random thought: are ducks related to penguins?

i mean they both have flappers and swim

Or do you mean webbed feet? (Also not called flappers)

Oh

Downgoat

1:09 AM

I meant what I said and I said what I meant

(late response was because i was busy googling the quote to get correct working)

Luis Mendo

I tried to settle up the question of flappers vs wings by looking it up in the dictionary... o.O

@LuisMendo ._.

clearly the Cambridge ~~goats~~ folks have never seen ducks

Anyone want to play Minecraft on the Hive?

"The Ender Dragon" is that what you get when you mix Martin and Conor?

@DJMcMayhem yeah, infinite languages, infinite golfing

@AlexA. how is it possible to fight with a vm

Install a FreeBSD VM and you'll find out

ASCII-only

it's pretty efficient with resources right? otherwise idk if it will even run very fast on my laptop

DJMcMayhem

I don't know much about freeBSD, but it sounds nice. Like if you took OS X and removed everything apple related from it

Oh man, I'd really really love to, but I can't.

Alex A.

@DJMcMayhem It's more like if you took OS X and removed everything from it.

There's no GUI, there's no Bash

It's like a whole other world

It doesn't even have gcc or Perl installed by default

Dennis

It doesn't come with a GUI, but you can install one if you want to.

Alex A.

Yeah, if you understand what you're doing, which I do not

Dennis

And many Linux distros also ship without gcc by default. So does OS X if memory serves.

Alex A.

OS X "has" gcc...

It symlinks gcc to clang

I once build the real gcc from source and it took 4 hours

Dennis

Oh sweet! Teach me how!

@AlexA. oy. That's ridiculous. It's crazy to think about compiling compilers

Alex A.

It is

DJMcMayhem

Building unreal engine on Linux made me appreciate how simple installing stuff usually is

Alex A.

I do not envy you that experience

Dennis

1:56 AM

Heh, I once tried compiling Chromium from source.

Doorknob

The Unity installer on the AUR is a >1gb shell script

Dennis

When I saw the size of the download, I reconsidered.

quartata

Building UE4 is almost impossible

In fact I'm convinced it is impossible

Alex A.

@Doorknob Does it curl an actual installer byte-by-byte or something? :P
