@BrowncatPrograms the one problem I have with this statement is that when you change your username back to normal, it'll look like you're talking about yourself in the third person
Someone nominated that answer as underappreciated, and I didn't want to go through the hassle of having a poll for some more, so I just tried to write a couple of sentences about each nomination :P
I'm watching the latest CaptainSparklez video on the new 1.18 updates to Minecraft, and holy crap, I love what the future of Minecraft is going to look like :P
@Dudecoinheringaahing i mean, i think it's good for someone who i don't think has much experience with ><>, especially since even most people don't use the stack stack much
On Thursday the review queues changed. Whilst the change is hopefully for the better in the long term. In, hopefully, the short term, the release has a number of issues. [1]
There are a few I'd like to highlight:
Community ♦ is posting comments which are good for Stack Overflow, but are bad on C...
@AviFS Unfortunately it's not finished and is currently in the "functioning but not very nice to look at" stage, so you probably don't want to base any Go libraries on it :p
I can make a gist with the relevant part to logging in though, since that's working now
Also make sure whatever library you use for requests handles cookies correctly, Node's does not so I had to rewrite my own from scratch
Thinking about Tweetable Mathematical Art and AviFS's recently posted link to a JS1K submission, I'm wondering if there's a way to write a fun, on-topic challenge where you have a given limit on the size of your code and you're trying to optimize some kind of score within that limitation.
@BrowncatPrograms I couldn't find one exactly matching that description, but I did find several other busy-beaver challenges that amount to the same idea. It's not a challenge type that I'm particularly interested in, but it's something.
@AviFS i mean, someone had to have specifically asked me to unfreeze it. unless i asked if someone wanted that room unfrozen. i'm not sure when i knew about that room in the first place
@AviFS i think you are confusing the reputation indicator for messages sent
@emanresuA This isn't going to bring me a few seconds closer to dying even if it wastes my time, unless it magically pulled me out of reality for a few seconds, let me age, and then put me back in
@user Because I definitely haven't sent seventeen thousand messages in the eTarpit's Silliness
i was about to say "granted half the credit should go to dennis for adding Ɱ in the intervening years" because dylnan's answer looks like it's sort of on the track to mine but then i looked it up and Ɱ was added like a month before then lol
sometimes i forget Ɱ is an alias for Ѐ because it's weird to think you ever needed two bytes for something like that
i don't know but this is reminding me about good old \ in brachylog
i can't actually remember what it is that it can't do compared to z₂ (i think it can't handle non-integers or something like that) but i do feel silly for adding z₂ instead of patching that functionality into \
The edit distance between two strings is the minimum number of single character insertions, deletions and substitutions needed to transform one string into the other.
This task is simply to write code that determines if two strings have edit distance at most 3 from each other. The twist is that ...
