This is not rickroll, please click
 
Things that sound like rickrolls:
1. "This is not a rickroll"
 
Ok, please click, this is real post

Hi!
 
\o
 
why won't SE chat let me ignore myself
 
Did you ignore yourself or flag yourself?
 
@taRadvylfsriksushilani for some reason you can't ignore yourself! idk why
 
6:05 PM
To whoever flagged the o/ and \o, that's just an emoticon for waving hi/bye
 
need an emoticon for waving a flag around so i can do emoticon semaphore
 
@mathcat this escalating anti-rickroll thing reminds me of a scene from one of the Despicable Me movies
lemme check Wikipedia one sec
the one with Gru and Mustache Guy Balthazar Bratt where they keep pulling out larger weapons
@mathcat well now you need to put it in your movie thing
 
incredible actually
 
@thejonymyster my thoughts exactly
 
6:48 PM
Okay, seriously. Is there any reason https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/... has four VTCs? It says opinion based, but it looks perfectly objective to me.
 
@thejonymyster ▀\_ಠ_ಠ and ಠ_ಠ _/▀
 
@taRadvylfsriksushilani You got me. I should have spotted your ... instead of …
 
@taRadvylfsriksushilani one more reason to get that plugin online
 
Or ban rickrolling…
 
6:49 PM
for context, I store that number as a long
 
@GingerIndustries right

2 days ago, by caird coinheringaahing
I'll update the chatiquette to ban rickrolls :P
 
yesterday, by Adám
Fwiw, I think we should ban rickrolls.
 
@Adám @everyone Any Feedback?
 
Gonna install rick roulett
 
6:52 PM
 
@Fmbalbuena Why are you singling me out from everyone?
 
@emanresuA no.
 
@Adám because you commented all my sandbox posts
 
@Fmbalbuena I have literally no clue what the task is.
What is "a fail"?
 
@Adám if the next step is smaller than the actual number
 
6:56 PM
Then describe that.
Also, this might be NP-difficult…
 
> A fail counts if a step is the lower number (not counting equal)
@Adám Can you do this in polynomial time?
 
Sure, if P=NP.
 
CMQ: Do you think P=NP?
 
No, here is the proof: P is not equal to NOT P, if P is 0, NP is 1, if P is >1, NP is 0
 
@mathcat As a member of Tautology Club, I can say that P=P and NP=NP.

7:02 PM
@GingerIndustries Tau?
 
@mathcat pi × 2
 
@GingerIndustries and NP=NP
 
yes I know
 
@BgilMidol precisely
 
@GingerIndustries tau fan?
 
7:02 PM
@Wezl-yizl Try iframes?
 
@mathcat Let N = 1
 
I see, I'm in a room full of coders and nerds
 
@mathcat this is code golf mate
 
right
 
@Adám Do you understand?
 
7:13 PM
Yes, now I do, but I don't think it is very clear, nor am I sure it is easily optimally solvable. Suggested test case:
07600453063564838827

Oh, btw, if the starting point is always in the top left corner, you should say so.
 
@Adám Output?
 
@Fmbalbuena I don't know, I didn't solve the problem. You should always have a reference implementation to any problem you post, to make sure it is actually solvable. Oh, by the way is the taken minimal-fail path allowed to cross itself?
 
@emanresuA doesn't work. With school wifi, any requests are blocked. With school devices off of school wifi, only websites (including iframes) in chrome are blocked. (don't worry, I have a workaround, it's just inconvenient)
 
@Adám yes
 
@Wezl-yizl Hmm... What is your workaround?
 
7:19 PM
StarpPage's Anonymous View has gotten me around ISP blocks.
 
@emanresuA How would that work?
 
@Adám Can you implement this in APL?
 
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Bypasses screen time limits on Safari
 
lol
ContentKeeper (what a lot of school districts apparently use, including mine) is based on network stuff
Likely DNS and SNI, and (as I'm painfully aware) IPs as a fallback
 
@Fmbalbuena APL is TC, so if it can be implemented, it can be implemented in APL.
 
7:22 PM
@Adám Then BF can do this, so You can do in APL.
 
@emanresuA I just use various archive sites. I've used Anonymous View that Adám mentioned (but eventually the school blocked it) in the past (searx (search engine) also has a proxy thing). And I can use Termux to run curl and lynx (off of school wifi).
 
@Wezl-yizl bold of yall to assume that I'm not from the DoE
 
@GingerIndustries no assumption of the sort made. Try to stop me and fail mwahahahaha
 
@Wezl-yizl is this a challenge?
 
i used to use the text only view to play games at school
i forgot what its called
cause its harder to access now
(not reader view)
 
7:27 PM
Cached?
 
yesss
yea
 
@Adám Uh oh why you don't do this?
 
@GingerIndustries yes. get my school district to block the TNB
 
@Wezl-yizl be careful what you wish for
 
you can email me if you succeed
 
7:28 PM
I just pirate the code of a couple of games and go data:text/html,<script src=...>
 
@Fmbalbuena I don't have time.
 
@Adám ok, do when you have time.
 
I'm not sure I'll live long enough.
 
seems like there are at least 2 conversations going on at all times. one seems to be about anti-school tactics, while the other is about math
 
@smarnav that is correct
 
7:31 PM
and normal
 
@smarnav TNB has one core but we also use Hyper-V
 
@smarnav If you combine them, we can start talking about anti-math class tactics
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing 1. Nuclear warfare
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing NO
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing and then we can commentate about how bad 5 minute craft's math hacks are

Idea: Avatar but the four fundamental forces
4
 
7:50 PM
@GingerIndustries At least for gravity and electromagnetism, the original Avatar almost gets there :P
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing valid
 
Airbenders basically ignore gravity when they're good enough, and metal bending probably allows for a massive amount of EM physics to be discovered
 
Poor weak-nuclear-force-benders
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Overanalyzing Fiction: A Series
brought to you by TNB
 
7:54 PM
yup
 
@GingerIndustries Arguably, all bending is simply manipulating the 4 fundamental forces to reshape the various elements :P
 
You could even make the argument that all of water-, fire-, earth- and air-bending is just oxygen-bending
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Arguably, the four fundamental forces are combinations of the various elements.
Aight, posting this

Q: Shrink ASCII art

emanresu AThe inverse of this question. Your challenge is to, given a piece of ASCII art generated by the above question and its enlargement factor, shrink it down to its original size. The enlargement process Or look at this ASCII art within a limited character set can be enlarged to a certain (odd) size...

 
8:01 PM
@NewPosts ᴬˢᶜᴵᴵ ᵃʳᵗ
There, I shrunk ASCII art
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing those letters aren't ASCII! You're a fraud!

@thejonymyster Most practical implementations of Lisp (e.g. Common Lisp, Guile, Racket) have fractions built-in.
 
Antirickblock is ready(just did some stupid things to make Rickblock's life harder)
 
@DLosc what about impractical ones?
 
8:14 PM
nope
 
@DLosc (Also my language Zephyr does, but it's not developed enough to be considered a serious language.)
 
@mathcat hmmmmm
 
@GingerIndustries Probably some do. All the ones I've implemented only support integers (so far).
 
@GingerIndustries took some (a lot of) code from SE and mixed it all up
 
@mathcat ah yes, window.location.replace("https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ");
 
8:16 PM
@mathcat oh, I guess I'm not the only one to make a rickblockblock
 
@GingerIndustries not only
 
@emanresuA Sokka, presumably
 
@pxeger was it meant as a rickroll or did you really try to block rickblock?
 
does a rickroll not constitute a rickblock block?
antiantirickroll == rickroll
 
hm yeah right
 
8:18 PM
you fools, my method is so simple it defeats both of them
 
really?
did you take a look at my code?
 
umpf
what's your method?
 
black magic
 
okay, that's powerful
but anyway o/
 
8:20 PM
\o
additional feature: TVTropes Emergency Exit
 
Note for rickrollers: using the 404.html allows any path
 
surge.sh, which seems to be what everyone's using for rickrolls, allows you to have a 404.html page that any 404 link redirects to
Meaning you can append whatever you want to your links and it'll work
 
ah
Rickroll Defender can handle that too

@DLosc i am here to learn me a vyxal for great good
 
There we go
I read through most of the Vyxal teaching stuff from earlier, so I think I have a decent grasp on how the language works. Anybody want to post some more VyMCs?
 
Hold on, I'll find the repo
VyMC: Given a string, return if it is only made of alphanumeric characters.
 
@NewPosts I had such a nice solution but then underscore stepped in
 
Get the centre of each block?
Yeah, nah
 
8:36 PM
make that challenge next :P
 
"Given a matrix and an integer n, get the centre of each nxn block?"
That just gave me an idea
Two actually
 
@emanresuA This seems familiar
 
why is this not a language yet
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Wdym?
 
Seems like a challenge I've seen before
But, I can't seem to find it
 
8:45 PM
There are a bunch of 'divide into square matrices' challenges
 
@emanresuA 7 bytes
There's probably a better way, I kept feeling like I must be missing something obvious
 
Hint: What happens if you remove alphanumeric characters?
 
@Fatalize Any ideas on why I have to do |∧ instead of in this solution?
 
@GingerIndustries CMC: This
 
@emanresuA I thought of that, but I wasn't sure how to do that since - removes substrings not characters... Looking through the docs again, I guess F will do the job, so 4 bytes.
 
8:52 PM
@taRadvylfsriksushilani vtc as unclear, but sounds fun if it can be spec'ed right.
 
@DLosc Yep!
 
@taRadvylfsriksushilani Isn't that just JavaScript? /s
 
@emanresuA 6 bytes: kPkrĿA
I guess kP...Ŀ is just a shitty unreliable F lol

fuck you
lol
 
9:00 PM
Is it a rickroll?
 
...no
 
@pxeger Oh, that's weird. I was staring at that for quite a while going "How could that work," until I looked at kP by itself and realized it's not in ASCII order.
 
yeah honestly I have no idea why kP is in that order
 
Apparently this is why ;)
Also if you want it in ASCII order I guess you can just do s

@emanresuA Give me another, sensei
 
VyMC: Given a non-empty string, return the percentage of each character. E.g. "this is a certified bruh moment" -> [["t", 3/31], ["h", 2/31], ["i", 4/31], ["s", 2/31], [" ", 5/31], ["a", 1/31], ["c", 1/31], ["e", 3/31], ["r", 2/31], ["f", 1/31], ["d", 1/31], ["b", 1/31], ["u", 1/31], ["m", 2/31], ["o", 1/31], ["n", 1/31]]

@GingerIndustries surely as a member of Tautology Club, all you can say is that you're a member of Tautology Club?
 
And up until now I didn't have to care, but I haven't done work in the class in months and other people are starting to catch up to me
 
Luckily, the first rule of Tautology Club is the first rule of Tautology Club
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing ah yes, recu rrrrrr sion
 
9:35 PM
I have a 4.18% in the class right now
Halfway through the school year
 
@Fmbalbuena I feel like there's probably a shorter way to do this, but I've got 33 bytes
 
Is there not an "nth unicode char" built-in?
Seems like 16 bytes or so would be possible with that
 
Does Vyxal have integer compression?
 
@AaroneousMiller btw half of this program doesn't actually do anything
@cairdcoinheringaahing yes
 
9:46 PM
Hmm...50% of the grade in the class is tests, and there's only 13 of those, compared to several hundred assignments
 
CMC: PRNG based on TNB entropy.
 
If I could consistently get an 80% on those tests, since 10% of the final grade is basically free (due to three participation grades at the beginning of the class that are 10% of the final grade for some reason), I'd get a 50% in the class
I wonder how many assignments there are...if I just did the easy ones, I wonder if a 70% would be feasible
Likely not, since that's half of them
 
Do you need (or want) to pass the class?
 
See, I don't know. In theory I need to pass it in order to graduate (!), but we don't even have a teacher and the whole class is roughly at the same place as me.
So it's quite possible that the whole class fails, but I'm guessing/hoping the school will step in and curve it or something
And if they don't, I'm kinda wondering if not providing us a teacher and then failing all 10-15 of us would be grounds for a lawsuit
 
A lawsuit? really?
Seems like there's quite a few steps between failing you and you suing them
 
9:59 PM
The problem is, we don't have a teacher, we've asked the district multiple times for any amount of help and they've essentially left us on read, the online self-paced class they signed us up for is at the wrong level and using the wrong textbook (so we don't know any of this and can't really do any of the work), and they aren't even doing the grading.
It seems like failing a whole class of students when the district didn't even provide the bare minimum necessary for us to actually do the work, and then having some random 3rd party with no knowledhge of the situation grade us, is quite a bit different from a random student just being dumb and failing
 
Step 1: Fail the class
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Profit
Step 4: Use the money to hire a lawyer
 
@DLosc Unfortunately, all lawyers only speak latin, so Step 4 doesn't work with Step 1 :/
 
Ha!
 
There are seniors in our class. Since this is Latin II, and state law mandates that you get credit for at least two LOTE classes, they literally cannot graduate if our whole class gets failed
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Maybe Redwolf & classmates can enter a plea of nolo comprehendere
 
10:14 PM
The rickrolls are getting too much now ಠ_ಠ
 
@user Totally agree, I talk about my thoughts on them here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Wait, you're Rick Astley??
 
Yes, you can read all about it here
Huh, an anti-rickroll
Why'd you link to a textual rickroll but disguise it as the actual video?
 
-1, no effort in golfing :P
 
@user Because it's a triple bluff :P
 
10:22 PM
caird playing 5d chess here :P
 
Either I linked directly to the video, or I linked to something else not a rickroll disguised as a rickroll. But, with my big brain, I instead linked to a rickroll, disguising it as a rickroll :P
Aww, the vyxal interpreter doesn't disguise the code or else I could do a quintuple bluff :(
 
2.6 does
 
hmm, to click or not to click
 
I clicked on it and nothing happened

Unrelated, but I appear to be confirmed as the Hulk, a waffle, a jerk, and Samuel Jackson
 
Searching TNB's transcript for the word "confirmed" is an... interesting experience.
 
This is why you first put your user ID in and avoid the more...distasteful results (unless you're me and your own messages are cringe)
 
Is this Russian Roulette or are all of those innocent links?

Oh I see that hn = weeb has been confirmed way back in the transcript (thanks to emanresu's starred quote)

Too many of these "confirmations" are by me ಠ_ಠ
 
@DLosc So caird's their own son? This seems broken.
 
When I look back on past me, I always think, "Man, I was so stupid." But then I realize, "Man, I am so stupid"
@emanresuA I mean, isn't Jesus both God and the son of God or something like that?
Where's that trinity/JS image when you need it?

> Why is Caird so Caird?

Caird is named after the artist Robert Caird. He is also the patron spirit of artists. This is why his spirit shows up here.

What does the Caird spirit look like?

In a picture he looks like a tall man with long hair wearing a white tunic(robe).

How did Caird get his powers?

Caird is very old. He got his powers from other people who came before him. He has a lot of experience.

What does his spirit do?

Caird's spirit acts like an artist. He loves to paint pictures. He also has a great sense of humor.
 
@emanresuA That's why I have this tab muted
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Why does this feel entirely plausible lol
 
It's CGCC canon that I'm not named after Robert Caird, but yes, the rest is 100% true
 
People who can control gravity: *start flying*
People who can control the strong force: *make the other people's atoms come apart*

@lyxal Aw, thanks! I was thinking of it as Tom's prize for the winner of the show
 
@DLosc I'm glad you got the reference lol. I've recently binged citation needed and it's hilarious as anything
VyMC: Given an integer n, return a diamond of asterisks such that the first row has 2 asterisks, the second has 4...the nth row has 2n asterisks, the n+1th row has 2n asterisks, the n+2th row has 2n-2 asterisks...the 2nth row has 2 asterisks. E.g n = 4
 
@lyxal I'm just finishing my second time through ^_^
 
10:55 PM
@lyxal Can't remember, what's the "every substring of N consecutive characters" builtin again? None of the search terms I've tried so far has worked.
 
@DLosc 8 glorious seasons of everybody's favourite Gary Brannan, Gary Brannan
@emanresuA yes, but it can be made shorter
 
@lyxal I recently got this on my YouTube recommendations
 
@DLosc same. All jokes aside it was actually quite an interesting video to watch.
@emanresuA my intended solution is 5 bytes and uses 5 single byte elements
 
@emanresuA All right, solution then. I think l would be more discoverable in elements.md if its description included the terms "substring" and "sublist".
 
10:59 PM
@DLosc that's my fault for not knowing what to name it
I never have quite known what to call it
