@hyper-neutrino I regret giving anyone the link to stalker :P

i used to have it but i forgot to reinstall it many years ago

caird coinheringaahing

If both you and WW have it, there'll never be anything for anyone else to review :P

I'll outclass you all with my superior reviewmanship

("Better" in the sense of "shorter", as they are synonymous here :p)

I mentioned it earlier, but I'm now the only user on the site with the Research Assistant badge on meta :D

@WheatWizard i'm struggling understanding how cell 2's limsup is 1 at w^2. at every w×n cell 2 is 0, so why isn't cell 2 also 0 at w×w?

Wheat Wizard

2:16 PM

Because w*w is not the limp sup of w*n, it is the limsup of w*n+m, and for any w*n+m I can find a later time at which the cell is on (specifically w*(n+1)+2).

(I mean technically w*w is the limsup of w*n, but it is not defined to be that.)

EnderShadow8

@RedwolfPrograms I'm a bit late, but my take on this:

There needs to be a sufficiently low barrier for entry to get as many submissions as possible

Otherwise the effort required is just wasted since there just isn't enough variety to make the game interesting

Redwolf Programs

Totally, I agree with that. I think your KotH was good, I just don't think we need five more of them :p

EnderShadow8

Mine was mainly attractive because of xkcd ngl

Unrelated String

yeah

Redwolf Programs

Your KotH attracted a ton of people to the site, and for that reason it's good

caird coinheringaahing

2:20 PM

Yeah. TBH it was pretty similar to Cooperative Counting, but it outscored it by 4x

Redwolf Programs

(Plus it's good anyway)

Wheat Wizard

@user41805 Does that clarify? I think this bit is certainly a little counter intuitive.

Redwolf Programs

I think there have and can be a bit more interesting KotHs, but that doesn't make this one anywhere near bad by any means. I just don't want this to become what KotH is.

hyper-neutrino

I think a low skill floor is good to attract less experienced people, but too many will either bore users or give them the wrong impression of CGCC

EnderShadow8

I'm no expert in psychology but you gotta have some sort of hook to get people interested at a glance

caird coinheringaahing

2:22 PM

@EnderShadow8 It generated 25 First Posts review events, FYI :P

Redwolf Programs

@EnderShadow8 You definitely got the formula right there :p

EnderShadow8

if simply making a mediocre submission is too much effort no one will put in effort for a high quality submission

caird coinheringaahing

It would've been 30, but HN got to 5 of them :P

4

hyper-neutrino

sowwy :)

Didn't this happen with code-trolling too? like it drew a bunch of people to our site but we banished it because it was getting out of hand?

user

Why can't you two share with the rest of us non-stalkers?

Redwolf Programs

2:23 PM

@EnderShadow8 I don't think a low entry barrier and a high skill ceiling are mutually exclusive

Unrelated String

yeah

caird coinheringaahing

@hyper-neutrino Kind of (lemme just type out a long history message)

Redwolf Programs

Because of the two different scores (security and game theory), there is a fairly good skill ceiling. I'm just worried about other KotHs taking the simplicity, but leaving behind the interesting title and skill ceiling.

Unrelated String

eh

the two scores thing did not stay interesting for long because accounting for it was fairly simple mathematically

EnderShadow8

@RedwolfPrograms That's the hard part

Redwolf Programs

2:26 PM

@UnrelatedString There were still some fairly complicated bots though, not sure if it was the two scores or not

Unrelated String

it all came down to predicting averages which is interesting but doesn't have that much... dimensionality to it

user41805

@WheatWizard still working through it, i might get back later

EnderShadow8

I have to say, that's true. The formula was present in about every second bot

caird coinheringaahing

Code trolling attracted a lot of low quality questions that were basically, "do X but trolling", rather than high quality questions. This time around, we can close any very similar koths as dupes, and, while they won't be new, they'll still be high-quality (or at least, not low quality if they want to stay open). Code trolling exploded overnight (like ~30 questions in a week or something crazy), this time around the bar for entry is high enough (writing a controller) that I doubt that'll happen

Unrelated String

@EnderShadow8 and one bot without the formula still placed 9th ;)

Wheat Wizard

2:27 PM

Ok yeah, if you need like more clarification though, just let me know.

EnderShadow8

The Rick Roll bot was pure genius

caird coinheringaahing

@user It's not our fault :P

hyper-neutrino

@cairdcoinheringaahing Ah, I see. yeah "code golf" SE becoming code trolling is definitely not good for the site :p okay I see

Redwolf Programs

Regardless of the KotH's skill ceiling, it seems a lot of people had fun with it, and some of the best answers were by new users. I think that counts as a good challenge by most metrics you can think of :p

Unrelated String

bandwagon wasn't even a remotely serious submission and i recall it did pretty damn poorly when i was getting the number for averageaverageaverage

hyper-neutrino

2:30 PM

every once in a while a simple challenge to pull in new users is definitely good but too many makes it boring :P especially if it's the same type of simple approach

EnderShadow8

Now that I've set a high standard for myself, I doubt I'll ever live up to it

I'll try

Unrelated String

yeah

Redwolf Programs

It's one of the highest voted questions we've had in like a year IIRC

caird coinheringaahing

@EnderShadow8 Once you write a popular challenge, it takes ages to write another one :P

EnderShadow8

thank xkcd, not me

@cairdcoinheringaahing I can imagine

Wheat Wizard

Oh I am really close to a second socratic.

Razetime

meanwhile, he has a total of 26 answers

Wheat Wizard

@Razetime I know that most of my rep is from questions by a wide margin.

caird coinheringaahing

@Razetime Calvin's rep almost doubled overnight when they changed question rep to +10

hyper-neutrino

i only have 97 questions, not even enough to get socratic if all of them were well received and none on the same day

Razetime

@WheatWizard yeah but you posted a lot more answers lool

EnderShadow8

Redwolf Programs

caird coinheringaahing

hyper-neutrino

imagine being known for something on the site. i have no specializations on this site at all :p

Wheat Wizard

You are like the only mod that does stuff.

EnderShadow8

2:37 PM

neither, probably cos I joined 2 weeks ago

caird coinheringaahing

...

@WheatWizard I was typing that, but it feels weird to see that from another mod

@hyper-neutrino You're definitely becoming the "meta organising" mod :P

pxeger

@hyper-neutrino I'm the zsh guy, and while I like winning in my category every time, I do kind of wish I had someone to play with

hyper-neutrino

I suppose that's true. I seem to have a lot more free time than the other mods :P (or maybe I waste too much time on SE, depends how you see it lol)

Wheat Wizard

I don't have free time, I also live in a time zone that means my free time seems to frequently line up with rather inactive periods on the site.

caird coinheringaahing

Out of interest @WheatWizard, how do you have so many reviews, especially if you don't use something like review stalker?

Wheat Wizard

2:42 PM

Not sure. Part of it is that I have been using the site for a while longer than most people. I also used to just check the page 5 or 6 times a day.

user

They're Wheat Wizard

hyper-neutrino

Has the rate of review queue items gone down since when you first joined the site or has it remained about the same?

Razetime

@hyper-neutrino excuse me

Wheat Wizard

It's gone down and up.

It's also changed proportions, there are more New User reviews now than LQ reviews and it used to be the other way around.

hyper-neutrino

I see. I haven't really been on top of reviews until recently; it definitely counted pretty heavily against my candidate score and even after becoming a mod I tended to take most actions directly rather than from the review queue

Redwolf Programs

2:48 PM

I just found a trick to make my Generic Review Tool not have to reload the page constantly

This will lead to far greater speeds

hyper-neutrino

is there a websocket

Redwolf Programs

No

Razetime

this is because it's much simpler to act on the frontpage than go to the review queues

hyper-neutrino

definitely. especially since CGCC's review queues are almost always either empty or with only 1 item and so it doesn't give the red circle

Redwolf Programs

I'm basically cheating, and fetching the page, which prevents it from having to run any JS or get images, so it can load the text quickly. I use regexp to parse a bit of the HTML for the lolz, then I can extract all of the necessary information using proper techniques.

caird coinheringaahing

2:50 PM

@hyper-neutrino Only 2 of the 40 points are review related :P

hyper-neutrino

@RedwolfPrograms lol, nice. :P well looks like i'll need to figure out something to match your speed :P

Redwolf Programs

I'll share the script when it's finished

hyper-neutrino

oh

Redwolf Programs

I'll just intentionally slow it down, to "preserve battery life" ;p

hyper-neutrino

ಠ_ಠ

once loading the tasks gets too fast it's limited by how fast you can process the review task itself at which point i worry that the speed competition will compromise quality/accuracy. but i trust y'all to focus on actually handling the task appropriately rather than trying to FGITW them

caird coinheringaahing

2:51 PM

Oh, WW just sniped a review from me ಠ_ಠ

Wheat Wizard

Wow with all of this talk about review queues how am I the only one to have done that review in Reopens.

hyper-neutrino

me who didn't even realize there was a task because stalker didn't report it ಠ_ಠ

Redwolf Programs

Because my copy of review stalker is broken :/

caird coinheringaahing

@WheatWizard Because when a mod reviews something, it doesn't need anyone else to, and you got to it first :P

hyper-neutrino

does reopen take multiple "leave closed" reviews to dismiss?

Wheat Wizard

2:53 PM

I was just surprised I was first.

hyper-neutrino

i don't know how many reviews each queue requires :p

caird coinheringaahing

IIRC RO and CV take 3 of the same decisions to clear a review, unless a mod steps in

Wheat Wizard

I know late answers always require exactly 1 no matter what.

caird coinheringaahing

FP and SE are 2 and LA and VLQ are 1 IIRC

hyper-neutrino

ah okay

what's the condition to send something to the RO/CV queue, 2 votes?

caird coinheringaahing

2:55 PM

1 vote I believe

Or a close vote flag

Wheat Wizard

Reopen can also be triggered by an edit alone.

hyper-neutrino

then if 3 people vote in favor in the review queue won't that cause it to leave the queue before the action is completed? does it take 3 reviews against the vote to dismiss it

caird coinheringaahing

I suppose if people vote in favour it sticks around for a while to get the last vote or 2, but I don't remember if that's actually what happens or not

hyper-neutrino

lmao, okay so I am supposed to start my job today and i hadn't gotten any information this whole morning, and I just got an email and apparently my hiring manager was told i was starting next week even though i am starting today. wow. for one of my interviews, HR somehow forgot / missed something and the hiring manager didn't send me my interview meeting link either. i'm just getting really unlucky with this whole co-op employment thing

@cairdcoinheringaahing well, it wouldn't make sense for it to get 3 close votes and then just leave the queue so people forget about it and it doesn't get closed :P so i'd assume that's how it works.

I'm guessing they VTROed?

Redwolf Programs

I think this is also a duplicate of the "lowest unique number" KotH

hyper-neutrino

The thing is the challenge obviously has different mechanisms - if it were the exact same, I'd have deleted it probably. But the point is that the strategy is no different - go for a high number, but don't go too high. Equivalently, go for a low enough number without going too low and losing. The different mechanism doesn't bring a different approach set

in fact, I could copy like half of the solutions from the other question verbatim and the others probably take little editing to be competitive

caird coinheringaahing

"not sure" counts for -1/5 flags IIRC

Oops

Why, though? Shouldn't 'invalid' do that?

hyper-neutrino

no, invalid is -1 flag

user

Oh ok

hyper-neutrino

basically, valid is +1, invalid is -1, and meh is -1/5. it's validated at +6 but i don't think it's known what the condition for invalidating it is; probably either it goes below a certain threshold or enough people vote without it hitting +6

i don't actually know what happens if i vote meh, and i don't remember if that option is even available. valid and invalid are both binding for moderators though

citation

this would be a nice feature to have. i'd love to make a userscript, but flags are not that common and flagging is one of the few things you're not allowed to test in the sandbox lol

Alt + 2 to Alt + 9 can be used for different apps pinned to the desktop

if it's in the taskbar you can use meta+X i think? but you need to target the item by its index in the taskbar and if you use it on something that's not open it'll open it so it's not the same

Oh, sounds exactly like Chrome OS's Alt + x then

hyper-neutrino

if you have chrome focused and then alt-1 once and then alt-1 again, won't it refocus chrome?

If you have a single window open, Alt + 1 won't do anything

@pxeger i was going to say windows key + X at first but then i realized redwolf was talking about ubuntu :p even though i'm guessing the keyboard has a windows key and i would've been understood either way
