Reported multiple Bugs to GitHub in May: "This looks like a bug so we'll ask the team to take a look and we'll followup when we have news for you.". Still no news >:/
 
Use GitLab
GitHub is closed source
rms disapproves
 
These are issues with functionality GitHub Enterprise provides. They don't apply nor are they available within Gitlab.
I actually use Gitlab for some things though
 
GH is closed source but GH is good
 
Most git-related parts in the GitHub interface, most notably pull requests made by using the web UI, are utter crap.
 
2:05 PM
true
 
GH looks like 2011, GL looks like 2014
 
Gitlab looks like any other admin UI ever.

Google Sites has to die in a fire.
 
@mınxomaτ Why so?
 
It's the Geocities of this decade.
 
2:33 PM
i am trying to create a google site but my connection dont allow me to ;_;
 
@TùxCräftîñg ;_;
 
Oh, I thought you linked to mine. Nvmd
 
3:13 PM
@mınxomaτ google sites isn't that bad
 
Huh, I think this is the first time I've run into a bag of tricks in NH
 
what's that?
 
What just happened?
 
@El'endiaStarman Yeah suff like that is always expensive AF. But his videos are great=)

@βετѧΛєҫαγ how?
 
@βετѧΛєҫαγ woah. Did you just join SO?

"joined three years ago"
 
It's the same with every other SE site... Worldbuilding, PPCG, Raspberry Pi etc...
It happened after I changed my newsletter email address
 
Wow. How many badges have you gotten today?
 
Every badge I ever earned before
SE just gave them back to me today

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

CopperWhere can the cannon go? code-golf board-game Introduction The game of xiangqi, also known as Chinese chess, is a chess-like game popular in China.

What's the point of including a golfing library when it makes your code longer than it needs to be? — DJMcMayhem 40 mins ago
I obviously have to delete that answer.
All, I deleted it. ;_;
 
Hahaha
 
To be fair, for a proper golfing library HW is too small of a task to help
 
Unless it was a builtin
import __hello__
 
needs "hello" :)
 
4:04 PM
I'm gonna make a language
No Turing completeness, nothing complicated
You give how to hello world, and it prints Hello world
Example; "HW,!" -> "Hello, World!", "hw" -> "hello world"
 
you mean, help warqdog?
 
@ConorO'Brien what's that
 
to this day I don't need why a comma is needed on H,W!
don't know *
 
What's warqdog i can't find it on google
i saw it before too
 
4:09 PM
@zyabin101 oh
 
OK, well that was interesting
 
@zyabin101 ah thanks, I forgot what it was called
 
Opened a door to a 4x4 room with three orcs a jackal two grid bugs a goblin and a lichen
First level
 
._.
CMC: implement Help, WarDoq!
 
How the heck did the letter "W" get named "Double-U"? Cause if you look at it it's very clearly a "Double-V".

Oh that idea is found too
 
@ReleasingHeliumNuclei you didn't make this :/
 
@ConorO'Brien ^^^
@ConorO'Brien i would do on C, but then i saw those:
Q Print the program's source code.
q Print the program's reversed source code.
._.
 
that's easy
the program in questions is the program you are evaluating
 
Ooooh ok
i wish C string.h had strrev :/
 
Well since this run is more or less over I'm just kicking every sink and quaffing every fountain and running like a crazy person
I did get an intrinsic from a fountain which was nice.
I also found a tripe ration so maybe I can get a new pet (doubtful)
No, oops. Accidentally moved into a floating eye

4:26 PM
@quartata Which run?
NetHack test: which monster are you?
 
Hey guys!
 
Is it okay to make a challenge that was already a bit difficult even more harder by adding the kind of arbitrary restriction that numbers aren't allowed in the code?
 
4:33 PM
|.)..!.
|..i?..
+.....[
If I were a NetHack monster, I would be a tengu. I'm always in the right place at the right time, and am quick to avoid people that I'd rather not be with.
 
@TheBitByte it's certainly allowed, but it falls under the category of "Do X without Y"
 
@ConorO'Brien Okay, I won't add it then.
 
@zyabin101 floating eye
@TheBitByte sometimes. It depends on why to exclude numbers. Lots of great challenges disallow certain characters, but arbitrarily song the restriction doesn't make it better.
s/to/you
s/song/adding
Stupid phone keyboard
 
@DJMcMayhem There are two numbers required in the input. I thought to disallow numbers in the code such that it's more difficult.
But I guess I won't.
 
Found on reddit not my screenshot
 
4:42 PM
@ReleasingHeliumNuclei that's kind of a dumb question.
 
does a FiM++ compiler/interpreter exists?
 
I'm sure the answer they're looking for is Linux, but since everybody refers to GNU/Linux as "Linux" who cares?
 
@DJMcMayhem op replied, it was MS-DOS :/
 
Wtf?

Q: The Letter E with E

TheBitByteYour task is to display the below letter "E" shaped ASCII art, given five inputs. Examples: Input: 7,2,+,|,- (Note: You don't have to follow this exact input format, and if you don't use it, then you must explain how your own input format works) Explanation: 5 Number of horizontal characters...

 
@TùxCräftîñg ^ with same plz
 
does the challenge disallow E?
because the title is confusing since there is no rule to diallow E in the source code
 
It says "with" not "without"
 
ah
i misread
 
It still seems odd to me, as it doesn't seem to mention what "with E" means. I'll read it again...
 
4:59 PM
it's probably a spoof of the A without A challenge
 
is 167 bytes good for that challenge?
 
question: should implicit newlines be greedy?
i.e. should:
1 + 1
+1 + 1
be 2 and 2 or 4
 
idk
i think 4 is better
 
If they were greedy, then this would be one expression:
[3, 4, 5]
[6, 7, 8]
namely, [3, 4, 5][6, 7, 8]
 
hm, lemme check
@ConorO'Brien yes it is :/
hm
 
5:10 PM
idk the behavior of neoscript about this
 
it's probably the same as JS
 
ugh lazy parsing is so painful

@TheBitByte it was 242 bytes before
 
@ReleasingHeliumNuclei Okay, have a +1!
I need a title for my next future challenge. But I need it to rhyme or be similar.

I was thinking about "The Letter A, Not D, But Q", but I'm going to need to figure out some ideas to match the title.
 
@JonathanAllan Yeah, that's going to be messy. Taking the Cartesian product of the consonants and vowels would be easier.

That works, doesn't it?
 
Does anybody know how to adjust the leaderboard stack snippet for different questions?
 
look for the question id variable
and change it accordingly
 
Okay.

@zyabin101 5*5-5 for 20
 
@Dennis yes that works but I thought I could do something like ⁵R£€
 
5+5*5+5 for 30 (looks like 100 lol)
 
5*5+5 is sufficient for 30
 
@JonathanAllan £ is a quick, and quicks don't work like that. ⁵¹£€ does the job.

@JonathanAllan The quick £ combines with the preceding link to form a quicklink. ¹£ is a monadic link that applies the identity function to its argument, then calls the link at that index, niladically. Finally, maps the quicklink over 10 ( casts to range if its argument is an integer).
 
@zyabin101 if i wasnt eating i would do something interesting for every n ∈ [-100,100]

But om nom nom

@Dennis ah, that parenthesised text could do with going in the wiki :)
 
6:15 PM
Is stealing a closed question okay? I'm going to modify it a bit and post it in the sandbox.
 
@JonathanAllan Pretty much all flat (i.e., non-vectorizing) atoms cast to some sort of iterable (singleton array, range or decimal digits).
@TheBitByte It depends. What question are you talking about.

3 too big: 5-5*5/5 is much shorter
sorry

it's random
 
are you allowed parantheses?

@ReleasingHeliumNuclei Added to my list that I'll publish later.
 
@seshoumara yes
 
6:29 PM
ok
 
idk if it will output results for >82
i think 5 operators is too small
it will put it to 10
oh wait
it'sa already at 10
 
@TùxCräftîñg include mod exp and or xor not rsh too
 
ruby dont want to exp
 
if it was an optimal solver it would be interesting to see the max nr of 5s needed to represent a number in that range 1 100
 
oh
the numbers are generating

@zyabin101 bruteforced expressions
(^ mean xor)
now i will try to create a tree-search bruteforcer
ops = "+-*/&^|%".chars + ["<<", ">>"]

(1..100).each {|i|
    s = "5"
    n = 0
    while eval(s) != i do
        s += ops[Kernel.rand(ops.length)] + "5"
        if n == 10 then
            s = "5"
            n = 0
        end
        n += 1
    end
    puts "#{i}: #{s}"
}
^ random bruteforcer
 
6:37 PM
is this haskell
 
Couldn't these snippets be outsourced to pastebin or something similar?
 
nope
ruby
 
@flawr Yup, I'll make a gist.
 
my tree generator work
now just to program the main loop
 
question: shortest BF intereter in JS?
 
6:40 PM
@TùxCräftîñg are you going to make this into a challenge?
 
@TùxCräftîñg Your little chat message inspired me to create a cool challenge: meta.codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/9982/58717
 
wat
my shitty bruteforcer inspired a challenge
 
@TùxCräftîñg Very loosely based on it.
 
please dont edit messages with pings
 
Sorry.
 
6:46 PM
@TùxCräftîñg that's a guideline, not a rule.
 
but it's annoying
 
Sometimes it's necessary to edit, but it's a good guideline to follow in general
(it's also a good idea to double check a message with a ping in it before posting...)
 
This is soo damn cool: googlefeud.com
Anyone wanna play?=)
 
6:50 PM
meh or me=)
 
Any thoughts on whether this is a duplicate of previous convex hull challenges?
 
$ops = "+-*/&^|%".chars + ["<<", ">>"]

def generateTree(m, s="5", i=0)
    if i == m then
        return s
    end
    l = [s]
    $ops.each {|e|
        l.push generateTree(m, s + e + "5", i + 1)
    }
    l
end

def getOptimal(n, m=6, tree=nil)
    if tree == nil then
        tree = generateTree(m)
    end
    for x in tree
        if x.kind_of? String and eval(x) == n then
            return x
        end
        if x.kind_of? Array then
            return getOptimal(n, m, x)
        end
    end
halp with mah code
the tree search is borked

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

TheBitByteInvalid Invali Inval code-golf This idea is loosely based upon @TùxCräftîñg's chat message. Take a look at the below example sequence: INVALID0, INVALID2 INVALID3, INVALID4... INVALID9 After INVALID9, it goes on like this: INVALI0, INVALI1, INVALI2, INVALI3... INVALI9 And after INVALI9, it'...

 
@TùxCräftîñg hav u tri pry?
 
6:52 PM
?
 
@TùxCräftîñg eh plz use pastebin or gist or so
@ReleasingHeliumNuclei hm there is no multiplayer
 
@flawr unfortunately
 
@TùxCräftîñg there's no rule against posting code blocks, but if you need to post lots, it's more considerate to either post links to external code, or start your own chat room
 
6:54 PM
:)
 
@flawr i dunno
 
@ReleasingHeliumNuclei you have to choose one to get a question=)
 
@TùxCräftîñg pry is ruby debugger iirc
 
ah
k
i am debugging by flapper the program
 
TIL penguins have hand
you mean flappers
 
6:58 PM
TIL goats call penguins' wings flappers
 
irb(main):005:0> l = [1]
=> [1]
irb(main):006:0> l.take(l.length) == l
=> true
>_>
ruby dont have a "copy" thing?
 
A flipper is a typically flat forelimb evolved for movement through water. Various creatures have evolved flippers, for example penguins (also called "wings"), cetaceans (e.g. dolphins and whales; usually called "fins"), pinnipeds, and reptiles such as some varieties of turtle and the now-extinct plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, ichthyosaurs, and metriorhynchids. Some flippers are very efficient hydrofoils, analogous to wings (airfoils), used to propel and maneuver through the water with great speed and maneuverability (see Foil (fluid mechanics)). Some flippers are less foiled, with the appendages still...
