@PhiNotPi were there any alphanumeric restrictions?

@Poke If you're not doing anything except retransmitting messages, then there's no point in decompressing anything. You just send along whatever gets sent to you.
 
Anonymous
Only the client and the server need to do (de)compression
 
@totallyhuman Needed to contain at least 1 letter. Also only certain special characters were allowed.
 
also funkydonkeyshoestick
hmm is there an xkcd password generator?
 
@Mego Right but in a reverse proxy you're both a client and a server. There's a case where the client may not want a compressed response but you can still request a compressed response from the backend and then decompress it before sending it back to the client
I suppose you wouldn't want auto-decompression in that case, though, in case the client does want a compressed response
so probably better to disable it for this example
I may have just used you as a rubber duck
Thanks though :]

Q: What are the generic steps which should be followed to reduce the complexity of any given questions ?

Mr. N. DasGenerally whenever we right code first we focus on functioning, after that we try to reduce the complexity. Is there any standard way to think about reducing complexity. Sometimes people use to refer try stack & queue ?

 
yay i have exactly 12k rep
 
@totallyhuman lies
 
:P
it's so obvious though
 
you have 12.01k rep!
 
gotta make it more subtle with a newer answer :P
 
7:59 PM
:P
you'd still notice it
code golfers have attention to detail :p
security people like me also have an attention to detail
... we just prefer to smack people around with it by printing out the details and then saying "YOU ARE ALL AT RISK TIME TO GO FIX IT!!!" and swing around the 500-page vulnerability analysis documents :P
 
@ThomasWard show me the risk acceptance form
ez
 
@Poke it's the form that's been sitting on your desk since the last analysis of the environment, last year, that you FORGOT about
:P
 
@ThomasWard I can start working on that next quarter
at the earliest
 
8:23 PM
"I would have fixed it yesterday, but apparently the font on your automatic PDF invoices was 'funny'"
 
8:45 PM
smells procrastination
 
is it your own?
 
How do you distribute the bounties you've offered for the PPCG Awards
Does someone like "poke" you when they've won, or will a mod just deduct em?
 
9:03 PM
Just like with GoL Tetris, there are "a few" that are active at once, and mods/whomever will ping when they're up so the next bounty set can be setup.
 
honor system, and trust in the fact that bounty lenders aren't mean people
 
But... how will I know who to give it to?
OHHHHHHH you award the bounty to THEIR ANSWER/QUESTION that was nominated?
 
Yup yup
Soon™
 
@AdmBorkBork Oh it's not there! I feel less dumb.
 
@MagicOctopusUrn well you can't award bounties to questions but in that case, you just award a bounty to an answer of theirs
if they don't have any answers, then wtf
 
9:09 PM
@totallyhuman #AwardNinja.
Man, I am bored... I need a good challenge that isn't already completed by @Emigna, which is literally none.
 
CMC: Given a list of integers in unsorted order, increment each element by what its index would be if the list was sorted, then return that list. You can choose 0- or 1-index. Example, 0-indexed: [5,1,2] -> [7,1,3].
 
@AdmBorkBork APL, 3 bytes: ⊢+⍋
 
@AdmBorkBork Jelly, 2 bytes: Ụ+
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Where'd the 4 come from?
 
@dzaima I believe it is actually ⊢+⍋∘⍋, or something golfier
 
9:21 PM
@H.PWiz oh yeah, right. Misremembered what does
 
@AdmBorkBork Same place it came from in the APL answer, no clue. Apparently Jelly thinks 1 should go last
 
lol
 
Same for the Jelly: ỤỤ+
 
Oh god, the OEIS challenge just got it's first Funciton answer :/ So... much... unicode...
@H.PWiz Huh. Would you mind explaining why?
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing It's hard for me to explain, but that is what happens when you "grade up" twice
If you think about it for a while (with some testing). You'll probably come to a satisfying conclusion on your own
 
9:26 PM
@AdmBorkBork I started on the domino one xD
I had a great idea, thattt... can't be done in 05AB1E due to padding limitations.
Nevermind, it's just 14 more than Jelly Try it online!. ;_;

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

SteadyboxNumber of Adjacently Divisible Partitions of n Output the following sequence (OEIS A167865): 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 4, 1, 3, 3, 3, 1, 5, 1, 5, 4, 3, 1, 6, 2, 5, 4, 5, 1, 9, 1, 6, 4, 4, 4, 8, 1, 6, 6, 7, 1, 11, 1, 8, 8, 4, 1, 10, 3, 10, 5, 8, 1, 11, 4, 10, 7, 6, 1, 13, 1, 10, 11, 7,...

 
@cairdcoinheringaahing It's because the says what index of the original list belongs in this position. So when you put in [5,1,2] and it, you get [2,3,1] because the element in index position 2 goes first, then the one in position 3, then 1.
It just happened that [5,1,2] gave the proper answers for the 5 and the 2

9:52 PM
Just realized my best answer has more votes than the question itself O_O.
Did bounty minimums go up?
 
no...?
context?
you need to at least double the largest bounty placed so far on the question
 
Ahhhhhhhh...
@HyperNeutrino Makes sense, I guess I already offered a bounty on it then lol.
 
lol yeah either that or someone else :p
 
So if 300+ bounty was offered, no other bounties can be placed?
[Forced to do a 300 bounty on this one.](https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/118922/words-with-blocks) Must've had a 150 before.
This one took me so long to put together lol.
 
no it caps at 500, and after that all bounties have to be +500
IIRC
I know you can keep placing bounties indefinitely
 
9:58 PM
@HyperNeutrino Hah... If I ever ragequit PPCG I'll place bounties on 20 questions and bail then xD.
 
lol :p
 
@HyperNeutrino THIS QUESTION IS SO FRIGGEN HARD BREAKS LAPTOP, DISTRIBUTES RIDICULOUS BOUNTIES
 
will take you a while because you can have only 3 bounties, but that's only like a week's worth of time
 
I just got an email saying I have 13 unread stack exchange notifications
Oh boy
 
@pa I bet.
 
9:59 PM
That's gotta be some kind of record
 
@MagicOctopusUrn no
Well, pav does
 

Sandbox

Where you can play with chat features (except flagging) and ch...
 
I wonder what my minimum is.
 
i wonder how links are processed by SE
 
Oh right, I most the best of nominations post
 
Ooooo... genius.
 
That explains the notifications.
 
o lol
 
I've gone without SE for like a month once and came back to like... 45 notifications because the day before I left I asked 2 questions that weren't too complete.
Oh my, you can't apply styles to links.
 
10:04 PM
yes you can
you need the https:// part though :P
 
WIZARDRY.
Oh, not wizardry, common sense... WHICH TO SOME PEOPLE IS WIZARDRY.
 
I'm still jazzed about my rep being 11,111 earlier.
 
so many 1s :D
 
I just lost it because I had 1.1k gain too.
 
10:07 PM
one of my IRL friends was like "you have no life" (because 16.2k rep) and I was just like ._. (i'm kidding pls no ban)
lol
 
16.2k REP? Dennis and Ender see us as puddles to their lakes.
 
yep :P (notice the link)
 
[._.] is a link
 
Well Dennis is a nerd.
The king of nerds.
In the best possible way.
 
10:09 PM
true :p nerds are cool
 
Some would call him a menace, others, a tribute to better times... A tribute to something we once lost...
COMING, SUMMER 2018, THE DENNIS STORY.
 
are you quoting something or just spouting random words? because i have no idea what you just said :p
help I did sudo apt-get upgrade python and then it prompted me about UEFI secure boot and is doing VPN stuff and setting up at least 18 million different things
and python is still at python3.4
 
I'm creating a movie trailer for The Dennis Movie™
 
._.okthen._.
 
10:13 PM
ok thx it finished and my computer hasn't broken yet so¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
At least you get apt-get... I have to use YUM at my job and I hate it.
It does these automatic yum upgrades which screws all dependencies up.
 
oh lol rip
 
Finally figured out how to prevent that crap after 2 weeks. But for those two weeks I constantly ran "YUM DOWNGRADE"
 
that's a thing o_O
 
YES
ITS PAINFUL
Lets say a package requires [PROGRAM_NAME].0.0.1 and you have [PROGRAM_NAME].0.0.45
You literally have to run an equivalent "yum install" which is "yum downgrade" to get tfrom .45 to .1
Else it freaks out.
Got easy after the first time... but figuring out that YUM INSTALL will NEVER install a version lower than the current version was a nightmare.
The error message was just simply "[PROGRAM_NAME] is already installed, idiot.'
 
10:20 PM
lol rip ._.

Q: Tips for golfing in Clean

ΟurousWhat general tips do you have for golfing in Clean? Please post only ideas that can be applied to code golf problems in general, and are at least somewhat specific to Clean. If you've never heard of Clean, you can find out more here. Or, you can join the chat room.

 
10:49 PM
@MagicOctopusUrn What system are you using that has yum and not dnf?
 
some stupid thing is taking up all of my RAM and even my mouse movement is laggy
it could be mintBackup but I doubt it
anyway gtg o/
 
11:51 PM
Can I get some function/operator suggestions for Neutrino? Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!
