><> Out of Water code-golf
The beloved fish who swims through the code of ><> has been taken out of its natural environment. This change has rendered it incapable of moving around in the way it's used to: what used to be tordial movement has been restricted to simple left-to-right movement. But ><...
@ATaco I've been thinking about that, I've had the idea that since capturing groups are 1-indexed, $0 could be the input, but that doesn't actually solve anything.
@ASCII-only If I'm not mistaken it goes [82 bytes of comment]\n[32012 bytes of code]\n[32061 bytes of code]\n[20086 bytes of code] (not counting \r\n's in there)
jQuery currently use UglifyJS to minify their source code. In their build script, they specifically set the max_line_length directive to be 32 * 1024:
The documentation for UglifyJS has this to say on the max-line-len directive;
--max-line-len (default 32K characters) — add a newline after a...
So it is 32768
I'm assuming it's at ~32k to make the gzipped file as small as possible
@Downgoat CMC: Make the minified jQuery file shorter than 84000 bytes but still work just the same (i.e. you could still script-src it in html and it would be indistinguishable to the user from normal jQuery)
Which method is faster or more responsive in javascript, if/else or the ternary operator? Is it preferred to use one or the other and if so, for what reasons?
If you're like me (and/or use Windows), You should have found this issue quite disturbing.
You plug in a hard drive (2TB for my occasion), and realize it doesn't show as 2TB, but a bit smaller size which is clearly not 2TB.
Over some research, I found it was because Microsoft's horrible mistake...
A challenge proposal I posted into the sandbox has received zero attention (no votes, no comments).
Should I:
just post it on the main site and hope for the best?
do an edit to bump the question up in the "active" sorting?
consider it failed?
do something else?
Given the equations for two lines which are tangents of a circle with a given radius, is it possible to find the distance between the intersection of the two lines and the centre of the circle?
Write a program to determine if a periodic sequence of positive integers has the property that, for every integer n occurring in the sequence, there are never more than n other integers between two consecutive occurrences of n.
For example, 2, 3, 5, 2, 3, 6, 2, 3, 5, 2, 3, 6, ... does have this ...
Win10 BSOD'ed for me when I tried it out in its technical preview stage 2 years ago in a virtual machine, while also running Visual Studio on the host machine.
A set of jobs are started at the same time and have different and fixed intervals at which they run (eg. every 1s, every 2s..). How can I find out the jobs running at a given time?
As most batch script writers know, we need to add either:
@echo off
@
to hide the unneeded foo\bar> prompt. Now the problem comes:
Do we need to hide the prompt in PPCG answers?
I've finally got round to adding in the support software to https://codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/11221/26981 I would be very glad to hear if anyone would be interested in golfing that monstrosity, and if not, how I might change it to persuade you. An example solver and automatic verification script it provided, which will hopefully make life substantially easier for any competitors.
(Thanks to those that have already given feedback)
I found a fast way to make test cases, if you have a JS function that solves the problem:
let f = /* function that solves the problem */
let post = document.getElementById("wmd-input")
let test = function () { post.value += " -> " + f(/* parse post.value.split("\n").slice(-1)[0] here */) }
(Note: only tested in the Sandbox)
Then you can enter an input at the bottom of the post, type test() in the console, and it will add the proper output for you
I'm trying to figure out the byte counting works in "Sum the numbers on standard in". In one answer using the jq util counts the non-space bytes after the util name, but not the util or the spaces. Using similar reckoning, (i.e. don't count the util name), one could get a byte count of 0 from n...
Average of a tune
code-golf math music
Often times when I'm bored, I'll find I have a catchy tune from a song stuck in my head. Then I notice the fingers on my right hand moving as if playing that tune on a piano. If I have nothing better to do, I'll spend some time calculating where on the s...
If you're wondering how to do str.substring(3, -2) in swift it's: string.substring(with: string.index(string.startIndex, offsetBy: 3)..<string.index(string.endIndex, offsetBy: -2)) O_o
Assume we have two uniqe, empty sets A and B. This means that either A or B contains an element not present in the other. As neither set contains elements, this is impossible.
.cat is a Catalonian domain that can only be registered for the purposes that have something to do with Catalonian language and culture and by persons that are connected to Catalonia somehow. That's sad.
For regular persons it is impossible to get a .cat domain usual ways. :(
@Mendeleev I guess the authorities don't really check that all domains follow the rules, so it is possible to lie in the application and get the domain.
Make a generated MIDI sound better
Being a crazy man, I sometimes listen to music made to midi trough a filter that makes it MIDI. It is a great experience, but I need to work a lot on it, because MIDI has a lot of instruments, and not every one sound good with every track

I think that the authorites don't care as long as you do anything to make it even remotely related to Catalonia. If running your site through google translate and offering that version is what you do, it counts.
