@ngn nice, i had an (ungolfed) 110 in BQN (including 4 chars for the ⊤ that doesn't exist)

@rak1507 is this accurate?

@lyxal lol it obviously got that from the iced tea message

funny how similar it is but slightly different

@cairdcoinheringaahing it's possible to write a custom edit summary when Improving an edit, instead of copying the suggester's, y'know

@bobble I don;t think I've written an edit summary on this site since I got 2k rep

shocked gasp

I try only to make edits where its clear what I've done, without me needing to explain it :P

Its the same as when I code - I don't bother using comments, cause I can understand what the code does, right? :P

The problem arises when your edit summary is now a "lie" - you didn't fix headers here, I did :)

got'em

Ah, I figured that had to be a user familiar with the SE system :P

@cairdcoinheringaahing Lies!

Would you take someone else's code, update stuff, but leave their comments in place?

No, that sounds like professional software development and I dislike that

I shall glare with vague hypocritical disapproval from the corner over here

I'd expect nothing less from you @bobble :P

Imagine doing professional software development. Made by "My company makes software but I don't" gang

@Bubbler huh, what do you do as a job then? (if you don't mind saying of course)

Bubbler is the only Kirby in his office

Imagine doing professional software development. Made by "rejected by several companies and the NSA" gang

He does magic and miracles

@user The only way to get rejected by the NSA is by not hacking them well enough :P

Or by Snowden-ing them

I'm hoping to go into a field that combines science with coding. Scientists, of course, write famously good code.

@Razetime so does that mean if I: a) draw a circle, b) dot the eyes, c) add a great big smile and d) additional drawing frickery, Bubbler will appear in my house?

Hacks to meet fellow CGCCers

@lyxal if multiple people do that at once, does Bubbler appear in multiple places at once?

@bobble no, that would be cloning.

@lyxal this can only be answered by bubbler

If you ever say the words "Hi caird" to any black and white springador, I appear in some random location in the world

:P

had to DDG what a springador is

ngl not disappointed

It's Patch's breed :p

our dog's breed is "shrug?"

if you want to meet me, all you need to do is fall down a massive mountain.

just make sure that mountian is named "Ebott" ;p

@Razetime That reminds me of this

That's a great conversation

I stand by that :P

@cairdcoinheringaahing Or applying on the very last day and being Indian, so they don't have enough time to do background checks on you

Can't believe I missed that logread

@lyxal Well, I guess not, unless you give him Bubble Kirby ability :P

The secret to building an army of bubbler clones has been revealed at last

@MonicaCellio Yeah, deciding between abandoning the community because of SE and sticking to the community in spite of SE was definitely not the easiest choice :) I'm happy you understand though.

TBH, one of the more appealing things you've mentioned (both in replies to me and things I saw from logreading since I left) is the customizability and the willingness for Codidact to work around its sites - I've definitely felt neglected far more than once or twice as one of the "oddball" sites, and it feels like the direction is solely towards SO/Teams (i.e. profit) and we're just part of the footnote of "oh this network is a thing too".

I actually very like you and Redwolf's proposal to have SE reputation as a side-note on Codidact, and possibly the ability to migrate some relevant privileges under certain conditions - it's a very appealing middle-ground between starting over fresh and getting everything for free without working for it or participating on Codidact itself.

Anyway, I'll try to remember to participate on Codidact more, since I am interested in the direction it's taking :) It's not part of the set of tabs I routinely open when bored or have some free time like SE and YouTube are, but I have time and I'd definitely be willing to give Codidact some more attention than just answering questions when rak1507 advertises them here :P

Is there a way to make a certain category of new Codidact posts (e.g. new Challenges) feed into this room? There's few enough it probably wouldn't be disruptive, and if y'all want to be pushed to remember to participate it might help.

If there's an RSS feed then yes, and there is IIRC

I suppose someone could write a meta post about it, I could see there potentially being a bit of opposition, otherwise I'd add it now :p

But wouldn't that involve firing Tim rak?

found it

when your clipboard is stupid and copies the wrong thing

gently leaves idea behind

@bobble Given that you don't have a CGCC account, do you mind if I open that on meta?

I'm not 100% in favour of it, but I think it's worth a discussion

Go ahead! I'm not even an active chatizen here; I pop in when bored :)

I'd be open to this but there are some reservations I have; a formal discussion on meta is definitely a good idea I think.

(despite probably no one being curious: yes, I do say "y'all" in real life, and no, I do not live in the area commonly referred to as the American South/Southern States)

Y'all is 100% allowed for anyone to say :P

glad y'all agree

Y'all haven't lived until you've heard some preppy british kid (think Jacob Rees-Mogg) use y'all :P

is now lurking on ppcg meta homepage

@cairdcoinheringaahing again we see the importance of punctuation. Is the kid using "y'all", or are they using y'all?

s/use/say :P

no, the second interpretation is definitely right

> ppcg

ah, the memories
