3:04 PM
I've never had a turkey burger but I'll just assume right here and now that they're delicious.
 
But I'll also assume that they aren't better than pizza.
 
Well yes, that's a fair assumption.
 
@Mr.Xcoder Your ban ended!
 
The pizza of the day is macaroni but we had macaroni on monday so i'm suspicious
Also that's kind of a weird pizza
 
You put macaroni on your pizza? What kind of heresy is that?
 
3:12 PM
Honestly that sounds kind of good
 
holy macaroni
 
Mac & cheese pizza is awesome
 
wtf phpstorm has no open source version?
 
No surprises there. It's a commercial product.
 
but other jetbrains ide's have free, open source versions too
 
3:26 PM
That surprises me.
 
You can get a free one-year license for all jetbrains ides if you have a university e-mail
Been there, done that; although I find Eclipse waaaaay better than IntelliJ
 
@J.Sallé that's surprising
it took me a while to switch off of eclipse but intellij seems better for most things
 
idk, maybe I'm too used to Eclipse, to be fair
But I mean, with all the extensions I have installed, my Eclipse looks exactly like IntelliJ does and has most, if not every, functionality
 
That is one definition of free. :P
 
@Adám If I do it will punish me probably?
@StephenLeppik input is a function in Python used to read a line of stdin input.
 
3:36 PM
@user202729 Well, you managed.
 
@Dennis I feature type jk in tnb a bunch of times when I think I'm in vim
 
@DJMcMayhem I always think you're... just... kidding...
I'll see myself out now :p
 
3:52 PM
@DJMcMayhem I use Luakit and it actually works (provided that you press Esc before, press I to insert text)
Because I'm not familiar with Vim I was super confused.
@Soaku I guess it takes an hour for chat profile to update or something.

AdámHow long does it take for chat profiles to update? says it can take up to an hour. Please add a button where one can refresh one's profile using the same technology as what the moderators can use. If it is too resource intensive to allow this freely, add in an appropriate time-based quota, like w...

Do typical online judges block std::system or networking, and is there a way to circumvent that?

Thank
 
@MuhammadSalman You should try and format it like the rest of the challanges :P
 
My formatting skills suck a lot.
 
Hello @Mr.Xcoder! o/

4:57 PM
Hi @DJMcMayhem \o
 
Also, needs information a bit more localized? The information is scattered all over
 
Good to see you again
 
wait for sandbox bot
 
Same here
 
Waited for you to return :P
 
4:58 PM
@moonheart08 Ok
 
boink!
i still had the chat window open. :p
 
oops , forgot that
I am so used to writing like this. I forget
 
It's fine. IRC?
also, is there a way to turn off that noise?
 
Yeah , Do what I did
Also which IRC are you talking about : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC_(disambiguation) :) :P
 
@moonheart08 what noise? chat notifications?
 
5:01 PM
chat notices, yea.
@MuhammadSalman the one it explains at the very top of the page :P
 
0																												'
@moonheart08 There is a speaker symbol next to the the all rooms button you can use to set notification sound settings
 
@moonheart08 there's an icon above chatroom name
 
Go to where it says all rooms and to left take a look
 
oh. thanks
(also, boink! i hate that noise :V)
lol there's an option to make the noise whenever a message is posted. sounds terrible
 
If you click on the speaker in the top right corner of the chatroom, you can disable it
 
5:03 PM
@moonheart08 : recieved a notif or not
 
I like this noise myself
 
CMC: Given an integer N >= 2 in base 10, return the smallest base b < n in which writing N in base b gives the largest digit
 
Ahhh. This is so stupid. Why in god's name did I ever choose JS for creating a language. Anyone got any ideas on how to output to screen : github.com/Muhammad-Salman-Sheikh/Language/blob/master/code.js. I am stuck (don't send a message to the email give (if you do go there))
 
For example, 7 should give 4 since 7 in base 4 is 13, and no other base b < 7 contains a 3
 
@DJMcMayhem An interesting question.
 
5:07 PM
+1000000 points if you don't use base conversion
 
^ LOL
Will you be willing to bet on that
 
(the kind of points you want to get, not the kind of points you don't want to get in golf)
@MuhammadSalman With a bounty? Nah
I'd rather not have negative points :P
 
LOL thought so.

Well there you go
 
@Dennis : well it seems @DJMcMayhem will be handing that out.
how many points was it again ?
 
@Dennis It's like mixed base conversion all over again :P

@DJMcMayhem would i get bonus points for doing 2 at a time
 
@DJMcMayhem Pyke, 2 bytes: eh
The pun in the code is completely unintentional.
 
liar
it's obviously intentional
 
@DJMcMayhem Whoops, I missed smallest.
 
@Cowsquack and potatos go moooooooo
 
Answers for 2, 3, 4, and 6 are wrong.

Announcement: APL Cultivation in 5 mins.
 
Well, 2 and 3 are wrong only if 1 is a valid answer.
 
5:42 PM
i think about that every single time i look at the weather forecasts
 
@betseg If each hour is independent, then the odds of rain over the next 5 hours is 1-(4/5)^5, or 67% chance of rain
 
@betseg same
awesome one
 
cc @flawr @Riker wbu
 
@betseg wbu? whack before use?
 
what about you
 
5:48 PM
@flawr Whiffle Balls Understand
 
@betseg lol, could be me :D
@DJMcMayhem I'm pretty sure the hours are not independent: There is a very high probability that 3pm comes after 2pm
 
But the chance of rain in any given hour should be independent, right?
 
Not necessarily, let's say at this location it always rains at least for 3 hours straight
 
I think that the odds would still be the same. Since the odds of it not raining in the first hour is still 4/5, and the odds of it not raining each consecutive hour would still be 4/5
 
ok maybe this is a bad example but in "reality" I'm pretty sure it is not independent
 
5:54 PM
Since rain for 1 hour and rain for 3 hours are the same output (there was some rain) so it doesn't matter how long or how much
 
yeah but that doesn't mean they are independent
you could have 20% rain each day over every hour if it rains 100% once every five days
 
Well I guess it depends on whether you treat the percentage as an amount or a probability
 
I thought we treat it as probability, don't we?
 
> The "Probability of Precipitation" (PoP) describes the chance of precipitation occurring at any point you select in the area.

How do forecasters arrive at this value?

Mathematically, PoP is defined as follows:

PoP = C x A where "C" = the confidence that precipitation will occur somewhere in the forecast area, and where "A" = the percent of the area that will receive measureable precipitation, if it occurs at all.
So... in the case of the forecast above, if the forecaster knows precipitation is sure to occur ( confidence is 100% ), he/she is expressing how much of the area will receive
sorry for textwall
 
interesting. So it's simultaneously an amount and a probability
 
5:58 PM
@betseg totally makes sense
@DJMcMayhem why an amount?
 
area
 
Sorry, coverage/amount potato/tomato
 
Mmm, fries with ketchup ...
 
hehe
 
no mayo? :D
 
5:59 PM
@AdmBorkBork that was an answer to an askreddit post today
 
(I actually prefer mayo to ketchup, but then it doesn't fit the potato/tomato theme)
 
Mayo and fries? I've never tried that before
 
@DJMcMayhem I heard there are people who do like that :) (here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fritessaus)
 
they give ketchup and mayo with fries here in turkey
 
right now I think french fries would go well with some kind of apple sauce
 
6:04 PM
they go perfectly with milkshake and/or icecream
not even joking
 
right now it is one of those times where "The Nineteenth Byte" -> "The Nineteenth Bite"
3
 
@flawr Thats even weirder. I can get fries/mayo, but fries and applesauce sounds bizarre
Also, I'm not Canadian, but I do love me some poutine
 
@DJMcMayhem that sounds delicious
@DJMcMayhem do you know Cordon bleu?
 
I know the term, but I don't actually know what it is
 
6:08 PM
10/10 for cordon bleu
 
I once had a Cordon bleu but instead of cheese there was an sweet-ish apple sauce in between, which was amazing
a schnitzel with cheese and ham inside
@betseg totally agree
 
I just had breakfast, and just looking at that makes me hungry again.
Holy crap that looks so good
 
@DJMcMayhem fries and applesauce? D:
 
Flawr said it, not me
 
My girlfriend likes fries with ice cream though, so who am I to say anything right? :p
 
6:10 PM
@J.Sallé well that is bizarre
 
6 mins ago, by betseg
they go perfectly with milkshake and/or icecream
@flawr ಠ_ಠ
 
but actually, I think that might not even be that bad
it probably matters what kind of ice cream
 
Ice cream and fries sound tasty in the same meal, but not necessarily in the same bite.
 
@betseg I just can't
 
@J.Sallé You wanna know something weirder than that? My younger brother is obsessed with Tortilla chips dipped in ketchup. :/
 
6:11 PM
@DJMcMayhem but would you eat it in the same byte? :D
 
I've tried once or twice but I just can't
 
Any recommendations for combination of (any kind of) meat with something sweet?
 
@DJMcMayhem well that's at least comprehensible, since tortilla chips are made to be dipped into some kind of sauce
@flawr Particularly I like a fine steak with caramelized onions
 
@flawr Pineapple with ham
 
@J.Sallé @AdmBorkBork both sounds delicious!
 
6:14 PM
@flawr A newish restaurant in my town serves burgers with bacon jelly on it. It's one of my favorite things to eat
 
@flawr leeks with orange sauce (not meat but still)
 
@AdmBorkBork oh, if you add cheese and bread you get toast hawaii :D
 
Add cheese and pizza dough and you get a controversy.
2
 
@DJMcMayhem I've yet to try jelly in the first place
@AdmBorkBork no, you'll just get a pizza.
 
@DJMcMayhem YES! Bacon jelly is so freaking delicious
 
6:16 PM
@flawr What? Maybe you just call it something different? (Jam, Preserves, Marmalade...)
 
@flawr I know, right? But some people (wrongly) insist it's an abomination.
 
never had hawaiian pizza, no pizza place i found in turkey sells it and im too lazy to make one
 
@AdmBorkBork s/(wrongly)/correctly
 
@DJMcMayhem oh, the internet taught me that jelly is some wobbly slightly opaque brightly coloured sweet thing
 
@flawr that's Jello
 
6:17 PM
@J.Sallé wait let me check
 
Ah, yeah that's it. Although they're somewhat similar
 
Jelly in the US tends to be more like Jell-O, though.
 
@J.Sallé these guys (the slomo guys) say it is "jelly": youtube.com/watch?v=5mZovjRlkWs
 
Yeah kinda. Jello is flavoured gelatin, basically
 
@flawr Silly Brits...
:P
 
6:18 PM
@flawr that's probably also correct
 
@DJMcMayhem oh well
 
@flawr Have you ever had Jalapeño Poppers?
 
@DJMcMayhem nope, just googled it, what do they put inside?
 
@flawr dates wrapped in bacon!!
 
6:20 PM
@flawr I guess you could make them a few different ways, but the way I have them here is a hollowed-Jalapeño (or half of one) filled with cream cheese, wrapped in a slice of bacon and grilled.
 
@AdmBorkBork It's just a fork :D
 
@DJMcMayhem I've had stuffed Poblano peppers wrapped in bacon before, I believe they're similar
 
@DJMcMayhem Or deep-fried
 
@DJMcMayhem we should really discuss these things before having eaten a meal
 
@J.Sallé Probably, yeah. Jalapeños are quite a bit spicier though.
Although they do vary quite a bit. I've had some that could be eaten straight up with nothing on them, and I've had some that make my mouth burn for an hour
 
6:23 PM
@DJMcMayhem yeah, ikr. I like them a lot, but my heartburn tends to disagree with them
Hot peppers and gorgonzola cheese are the bane of my existence but I love them so much
 
Huh. TIL that Peperoncino is an insanely hot italian pepper, and what I call Pepperoncini is supposed to be called Friggitello.
I've literally never heard that before
 
@DJMcMayhem and Pepperoni, also.
Pepperoni is bell pepper in italian, iirc
 
Friggitello. Isn't that the fifth Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle?
 
Pepperoni is Ham...
Well, sausage I guess
 
@DJMcMayhem I thought americans call pepperoni what actually is some kind of salami?
 
6:28 PM
> The term "pepperoni" is a borrowing of peperoni, the plural of peperone, the Italian word for bell pepper.

@flawr Basically, yeah. It's almost the exact same thing as salami, but with a darker red and a stronger flavor
 
@DJMcMayhem so it is some kind of hot salami?

It's hard to describe the flavor

Hello, Could someone help me with a conceptual programming problem?
 
@tuskiomi You can at least say what it is. :-)
 
I'm trying to procedural generate Hilbert curves using pen and paper style instructions (forward, back, turnRight, turnLeft). I'm trying to make the algorithm able to generate curves of arbitrary order given an input.
I understand how they're made, but the procedural pen-style generation gives me a headache
I'm reading the wiki page right now, and there seems to be a rewrite system, but I cannot make sense of it. I do not know what a re-write system is.

@Adám What game is it?
(And what's it written in)
 
11:49 PM
@Pavel It is called Kingdom. It is written in APL\360.
 
ooh
 
The source code was last updated in January '76.
 
It should still be mostly compatible with Dyalog, right?
 
@Pavel Yeah mostly. Hooray for backwards compatibility.
 
So, which ⎕ML would you use?
 
11:56 PM
@Pavel -100 :-) ⎕ML only affects monadic , , ,, and dyadic . Neither of these existed in APL\360.
 
Ah
 
@Pavel The background for ⎕ML is that various vendors made their own extensions to the common basic APL. \360 is that basic APL.
