@trichoplax 0/10, not enough Dr Seuss
 
It was whoever happened to be on the top row at the time...
Not a lot of thought went into it...

Please stop shouting
 
DECREASING VOLUME SETTING. ɪs ɴᴇᴡ ᴠᴏʟᴜᴍᴇ sᴇᴛᴛɪɴɢ ᴀᴘᴘʀᴏᴠᴇᴅ? _
 
@DJMcMayhem Nope, we are not shouting.
This is the caps voice of computers.
 
10:09 PM
I think the point was that when overused it becomes annoying
 
LegionMammal and Tux argue over is Unity bad.

ಠ_ಠ Looks like I just got temp-11'd

@trichoplax TNB users have a habit of overusing jokes long past they stop being funny :/
 
At least I wasn't perma-11'd

@ΛεγίωνΜάμμαλϠΟΗʹ If you get elevened in that way thrice, you'll permanently lose your RO abilities, and won't be able to own/create rooms.

Read the screenshot VERY carefully.
 
@Downgoat We're hopefully adjusting that in the right direction...
 
oh neat, this one does all of them at the same time
 
10:16 PM
It's even got the ghost of the previous best
 
Hmm, what happens when an user gets kick muted, and then kick muted again after a large enough period to recover?
Does he get 5 mins, or 1?
 
I think it only escalates within 24 hours - I'll try and find a source
 
And can a user who lost RO abilities to his third kick mute, recover them?
 
question: what happen when a room lost all ROs?
 
@TùxCräftîñg Mods still have RO powers
 
10:22 PM
@TùxCräftîñg ^
 
@trichoplax I think that's just keeping the champion in the population? (The other one does that too)
 
@MartinEnder Yeah, it's what the Elite Clones option does
 
Ah I see

A: Impose a re-entry delay on users kicked out of a chat room

balphaThis has been implemented now. The short story is: room owners can kick abusive users, who will then be banned from re-entering the room for a certain time. Of course you want not just the short story but all the dirty details, so here they are: In the user popup that appears when you click on ...

 
the blue is the champion of the last generation and the ghost the champion of all generations
 
@zyabin101 In short, a mod can restore lost powers
 
10:28 PM
Chat idea: A R9K mode, which enforces originality and slows down those who try to violate it.
 
my $config_file = shift or die "Usage: $0 <config> [<log file to load>]";
shift or die
perl is metal
 
oh geez past about March it gets bad
 
> Git will end up removing this fake user
I don't thing Git will do anything about this.
 
yes, this bugged me too
 
TBH I'm here because of this comment
 
10:44 PM
ETHbot is running in Beep Boop Maggot, if anyone want to talk to him (or at least try to)
 
OMG THE README
 
i am internally dying by reading the README xD
@ETHproductions brb calling zalgo
 
oml the commit messages
 
@TùxCräftîñg I like that you can make the landscape "mutable" so that it is different each run and the cars don't specialise
 
what the lolz is happening in beep boop maggot O_o
 
10:49 PM
@TùxCräftîñg I had seen this
90% of the conversation is about Rick Astley
 
yes You Up►
 
Apparently Conor was trying to teach Chatgoat to rickroll a few days ago, so that's what ETHbot is drawing it from
 
never learn from other bots
this is a Really Bad Idea™®©℠
 
Wonderful. Left for an hour and people started shouting
@TùxCräftîñg This is a very common idiom
or die
that is
It might make more sense if you think about it like this:
important_function_that_returns_falsy_on_error() || throw_an_error()

@Zalgo Works well, "%I:%M %p") - Never Gonna Give You Up►
ethbot is trying to rickroll zalgo confirmed
 
11:03 PM
imgur is down
 
> Sorry! We're busy running around with our hair on fire because Imgur is over capacity! This can happen when the site is under a very heavy load, or while we're doing maintenance.
 
yeah, that
basically down
 
Fine for me...

@Zalgo Hamming distance, its certainly not going to rick roll! It had a problem with
 
@quartata Well, I can't complain about this: It made it to HackerNews.
 
Oh whoa
 
Is there a price for the most starred, yet completely unfinished software :D ?
 
Ctrl-V is a very cool vim command
 
11:24 PM
@TùxCräftîñg absolutely! In normal and insert mode!
 
it's ultra usful for things like my Ruby answer relying on a literal ESC char
 
Wait, which mode were you talking about?
 
insert
 
Oh, OK. It's also really cool in normal
ga is also extremely useful
 
Also, GH projects is really nice. I didn't realise how much I needed this feature until now.
 
11:28 PM
@mınxomaτ If you did not realise it, then you never needed it. /sarcasm
 
You know you've gone too far into golfing languages when your reference solution is in Pyth

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

Steven H.Pitchers and Rivers Credit for the idea for this challenge goes to Dan Garcia of UC Berkeley. Many of you may have heard of any number of variations on the pitcher problem. For those who haven't, or need a refresher, the generalized form of the pitcher problem is as follows: Given a list o...

 
:32321600 For heavens sake, stop deleting your messages.
5
 
A good alternative to deleting a message that you didn't think before posting, is to think before posting
19
 
@trichoplax But then you cannot predict what people would think if you posted it, before you posted it.
 
You can usually take an educated guess.
 
11:32 PM
@TheBitByte if you delete it before anyone has a chance to respond, then I'm guessing that's not your reason...
 
@Geobits It would be a guess, but not so much educated, since opinions are inherently subjective, including those of mods and/or room owners.
 
9 hours ago, by El'endia Starman
Stop starring stuff that isn't interesting and/or important.
 
@StevenH. that is very important.
 
Whatever your reasons are: 1. It's annoying. 2. Stop it.
 
I was referring to them starring my messages, actually.
Well, message singular now.
 
11:34 PM
oh
 
@StevenH. You mean the interesting one?
 
I didn't consider it interesting as much as humorous, but sure.
 
@trichoplax "interesting" is subjective. What you find boring, someone else might find interesting. You might be looking for "consensus" before starring, but then nobody would star anything if they had to ask before doing it.
 
@TheBitByte I don't buy the premise that you have no idea what may or may not cause offense or be annoying. It's a common defense, but not a good one at all.
 
@zyabin101 The very beginning
 
11:36 PM
@TheBitByte Well, there's the important things that'd get starred too.
 
@TheBitByte My point was that @StevenH.'s message on the starboard is interesting, and I'm not surprised it has been starred
 
@trichoplax Well, interesting, yes, but I thought you meant informative. Maybe you didn't.
 
Sometimes I get mixed up, but on this occasion I meant what I said :P
 
You meant what you said, yes, but what you meant is something you can change. :D
 
I don't know if you are trying to confuse me, but if you are you are succeeding...
 
11:40 PM
In the interest of topic change, here's a video that Minibits insisted I post in here, despite my general reluctance to post animal videos:
 
@trichoplax I'm not trying to confuse you. You might be confused yourself, but this is not equivalent to me confusing you on purpose, which I have not done. :D
 
@TheBitByte I appreciate that. I just wanted to admit my confusion
 
@Geobits that looks almost like the spitting image of my dog
 
@trichoplax Well then, you are a frank person, but confusion as a result of something I have purposely intended has not occurred.
And now I am confused.
 
Thanks for clearing that up :)
 
11:43 PM
That with black fur ^
That's what my dog looks like
 
Does he keep the beat with his ears?
 
@trichoplax You are welcome. But I must say, your frank nature is interesting.
 
I don't think he's smart enough to
 
i think straw need a proper looping command
 
@TheBitByte It beats pretending to understand
 
11:44 PM
@DJMcMayhem wait, if ur cat in the hat. how can cat own dog. i thought cats and dogs didnt go well together
 
because ((<body>:&)(<end>):<condition>'):& is... weird
 
@TùxCräftîñg is there a command to run a shell command in Straw?
 
@trichoplax Well, certainly, "beats" is an interesting choice of a word, but personally not one I would have chosen in such a situation.
 
I just meant it serves me better
 
11:45 PM
@Downgoat dont want to make the language not suitable for TIO
 
> Or you could just only play Linux games. I mean sure, you'll eventually get tired of Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of Mordor. But when that happens you can just play Shadow of Mordor.
 
@TùxCräftîñg cant you add safe mode flag or sometihng?
 
Something about this feels like a turing test >_>
 
@TùxCräftîñg you can just make a safe flag to disallow it. That's what V does
 
@Geobits that would only be a problem if you're a AI ¬______¬
 
11:46 PM
yes... but anyway what could be the utility of a 'execute shell command' command

  Beep Boop Bingus Bin

VITRIFICATION ORDER (1947) CONDEMNED DO NOT ENTER
zalgo is crazy
 
@Downgoat No, not me. I meant someone else here.
 
@trichoplax Well, maybe it does, but this does not change my opinion on your choice of words.
 
@TùxCräftîñg well suppose the command to execute shell command was : you could do "cheddar": which would be very helpful/useful command
@Geobits ok then idk who
 
@TheBitByte Would you consider being more vague?
 
i dont want straw to look like (perl -e 'shift or die')μ
 
11:48 PM
;_; k
 
@Downgoat Nothing about the Turing test guarantees that being human will make you pass...
 
@trichoplax Actually, nope, I do not find myself that I would consider such a position.
 
@trichoplax well if ur human and fail turning test then the test is borked or ur borked
 
That would be pretty embarrassing. Failing the Turing test as a human
 
@Downgoat Turing tests are not always accurate.
 
11:49 PM
@Downgoat no, it just means you are dumber than an AI
 
@Downgoat It's not a humanity test, it's a test for being good at convincing humans that you're human.
 
@trichoplax ok i fixed my chat message
 
@Downgoat I concede :P
 
@DJMcMayhem You have not defined the capabilities of such an AI first of all, therefore your response is a bit misleading, in my opinion.
 
@Downgoat Not really. The examiners in these tests are looking for something to pin "It's a bot" on. Any awkward phrasing could cause someone to say that, simply because they want to spot any and all mistakes.

Q: Flexagonal flexagation

BlackCapBeing programmers, watching us flex aren't very interesting. Today we change that! In this challenge you will lex and flex hexaflexagons. About For a video introduction, watch viharts video(s) on flexagons A flexagon is a shape that you can flex to reveal faces other than the top and bottom on...

 
Has anyone seen the movie "Ex Machina"? Good movie about AIs and the Turing test.
 
The better AIs get at it, the harder it will be for an average human to pass a Turing test
 
@TheBitByte Just...
 
11:52 PM
@trichoplax That is certainly an interesting opinion, but not one I would choose, were I asked such a question.
 
@DJMcMayhem It's not a bad movie overall, but damn is it a bit slow.
6 mins ago, by Geobits
Something about this feels like a turing test >_>
 
looping operator of straw: £
 
@ΛεγίωνΜάμμαλϠΟΗʹ What's that?
 
Found myself on YouTube ;)
 
11:53 PM
@Geobits that's fair. It's also a little bit disturbing at points
 
@TheBitByte Part of the top-right minimap in Factorio
 
@TùxCräftîñg Oh good. Nothing like having basic operators assigned to symbols not present on my keyboard :P
 
@ΛεγίωνΜάμμαλϠΟΗʹ What is Factorio?
 
@HelkaHomba 0/10, no gouda
 
so what bout ç
or Ö
 
11:54 PM
gtg bai
 
How about just a full Lenny?
 
@TimmyD ಠ_ಠ
 
or any cp437 character not in the readme of this
 
@Geobits This seems more like a human doing its best to convince us it's a bot. Perhaps practice for when the machines take over
 
@ΛεγίωνΜάμμαλϠΟΗʹ Interesting, certainly.
 
11:56 PM
@trichoplax Right, right. So maybe call it a reverse-turing test, if that's not already a thing.
 
so what 'bout º as the looping operator
 
I was thinking just give the benefit of the doubt, assume its a bot, and kick it. That's presumably the desired outcome?
 
I assume so.
 
@TùxCräftîñg I don't see how that's any better if you're going for convenience
 
@DJMcMayhem Golfing and convenience don't go hand in hand.
 
11:59 PM
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
