CMC: Determine which word is most likely to get a star; that is, determine the word with the highest ratio of number of messages containing it on the starboard to total number of messages containing it
@Adám Yeah, instead of erroring or trying to coerce it's condition to a boolean value when giving something that isn't true or false, it just does the other case.
@Pavel (⋄ is the statement separator) : is a guard; condition:result if true. If not true, it continues on next line. :: is an error guard error number(s)::result if one of those errors happen from now on. 0 means any error. Giving a non-Boolean on as the condition is an error (error 11, but 0 is shorter).
Write a program that outputs as many characters as possible, with two conditions:
The program must be 256 bytes or shorter
The program must almost surely eventually halt. In other words, the only thing not permitted in response to this question is an infinite loop.
For the purposes of this pr...
@ASCII-only No. I mean, you can use the : guards in a one-liner dfn, and you can even define a tradfn ("full program") on the fly and use it right there.
@ASCII-only Yeah, it lets you have a GUI on your machine for an APL running on any connected machine (or on the same machine). APL can also serve RIDE to a browser, so you can have a zero-footprint GUI to a remote (or local) APL.
@mınxomaτ What is the most dystopian part? Requiring people to have machine-readable content to get good rankings, or designating certain sources as the arbiters of "facts"?

Essentially, I’m trying to write expression(s) whose result is as long as possible; and the result and the expression don’t share or repeat characters.
@Lynn I feel like you may be at a local maxima, if I were you I would try scrapping it and seeing if you could come up wiht something better from scratch
With modern architecture, the speed difference between a double and an int is negligible, especially with the limited amount of math languages like Javascript and Lua are expected to do.
Plus, dynamically switching type would cause a LOT more slowdown if the programmer doing it wasn't aware.
CMP: Should Proton use arbitrary precision numbers by default? Advantages are nicer syntax for precise maths, but disadvantages are that it takes over one second to start up.
I have a CLI application that requires sympy. The speed of the CLI application matters - it's used a lot in a user feedback loop.
However, simply doing import sympy takes a full second. This gets incredibly annoying in a tight feedback loop. Is there anyway to 'preload' or optimize a module whe...
@feersum the javascript engines will try to represent your small integers using an integer type and perform integer arithmetic on it, but only when the results would be the same as if they'd done double arithmetic
