C++ be like
 
@RadvylfPrograms ಠ_ಠ
that looks so cursed
 
@RadvylfPrograms This is the cat version of lyxal
 
(fun autocorrect: "that looks so curved")
 
3:03 PM
@RadvylfPrograms Remember, you can't spell "Collapse of human society" without "C"!
 
You can't write "self-reference" without self-reference
 
... or without "C" ;)
 
@RadvylfPrograms That joke's so meta Facebook's trying to buy it
 
@lyxal i found the meaning of lyxal: lyxal can be split into lyx meaning luxury (in Swedish) and alal meaning area (in Estonian). Hence lyxal means luxurious area.
 
3:07 PM
i did not need to see that at 8:40pm
 
@GingerIndustries Thanks, I hate it
 
@RadvylfPrograms (this is a real image btw)
 
Oh right I forgot!!!
Today is the day
 
You're welcome!
 
3:08 PM
Today
@GingerIndustries not you
 
:o is it chairconflict?
 
Adam
 
it's twosday 2/22/22
 
@RadvylfPrograms exactly!
@GingerIndustries no
Today is Chairconflict
 
Chairconflict :D
 
3:09 PM
@DLosc meaning of DLosc: dlo means water (in haitian creole) and sc which is an abbreviation of super computer. Hence you are water super computer :P
 
Man, Highminuzzz and Mid-Timothy aren't gonna be nearly this good
 
Here's a chairconflict for y'all
 
@PyGamer0 Sounds good to me
 
well then what's the meaing of Gru ensgdrtsnIiei
 
@RadvylfPrograms meaning of Radvylf: rad means work (in Bosnian) and vylf means wolf. Hence you are Workwolf
lmao

solid.pySum of the first n elements of the triangular sequence Let's consider the following sequence: $$0,1,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,45,55,66,78,91,105,120,136,153,171,190,210,231,253,276, 300...$$ This is the sequence of triangular numbers (A000217 in the OEIS) defined as: $$a(n) = binomial(n+1,2) = n*(n+1)/2...

 
workwolf lmao
 
@GingerIndustries 404
 
Me using no-oneboxes
 
3:15 PM
thanks to desmos i knoe about cartesian planes :P
 
(no, I'm not advertising for this user script)
 
yesterday, by user
@AaroneousMiller I can much math
 
^ hey look Cartesian plane
 
CMQ: Off the top of your head, what letters are also names of programming languages? I can think of 11, but I'm sure there's more.
 
@DLosc what are the 11 letters
 
3:18 PM
A, B, C, D, F, J, K, M, Q, R are all I can think of
 
i can only think of ACDIJKV
 
@DLosc Good thing I just invented the Letter family of languages, consisting of 26 langs each named A through Z, each of which prints its name when run.
you're welcome
 
@DLosc I know that all letters are taken.
 
Are all 26 public?
 
@RadvylfPrograms Oh, V
I know there's multiple of quite a few letters
M and Q in particular
 
3:21 PM
@Adám of course they are already taken, they all are very obvious names
 
@PyGamer0 I've reserved the empty string for my upcoming golfing language.
5
 
lol
 
@PyGamer0 I thought of B, C, D, I, J, K, M, Q, R, V, and W
 
@DLosc Ah
 
Are there any named after letters in other alphabets?
@Adám , 10 bytes
 
3:23 PM
@mathcat Dynalist interpreter (takes the name of the lang as input, crashes if name is invalid): ∈ÇL←℗
@Adám idea: SpaceFuck, a BF dialect where the commands are replaced with different Unicode space characters
 
Interesting idea. Much more competitive than whitespace.
 
> BF dialect
> Interesting idea.
 
I see no problems here
 
@Adám What about non-latin letters or, variant latin letters like, eth, thorn or eszet?
BETA is a pure object-oriented language originating within the "Scandinavian School" in object-orientation where the first object-oriented language Simula was developed. Among its notable features, it introduced nested classes, and unified classes with procedures into so called patterns. The project is inactive as of October 2020. == Features == === Technical overview === From a technical perspective, BETA provides several unique features. Classes and Procedures are unified to one concept, a Pattern. Also, classes are defined as properties/attributes of objects. This means that a class cannot be...
 
@GingerIndustries Fun fact, this used to be one of WW's profile pictures
 
3:30 PM
There is a beta programming language at the very least. I would expect more.
 
Isn't there one called Iota?
 
I thought so but I couldn't find anything.
 
@WheatWizard It's bound to be pretty small, maybe use a microscope
 
@DLosc What is a noise that a cow makes?
 
3:35 PM
might just go make an esolang

@GingerIndustries Correct! You control the board, pick a category.
 
@RadvylfPrograms did you forget about Python 3
 
There's Cω, Fω, and λω, but I find no omega.
 
The Alpha language was the original database language proposed by Edgar F. Codd, the inventor of the relational database approach. It was defined in Codd's 1971 paper "A Data Base Sublanguage Founded on the Relational Calculus". Alpha influenced the design of QUEL. It was eventually supplanted by SQL (which is however based on the relational algebra defined by Codd in "Relational Completeness of Data Base Sublanguages"), which IBM developed for its first commercial relational database product. == References == == See also == QUEL query languages
 
3:37 PM
Honorable mention to Unlambda and Gammaplex
 
@DLosc I'll take "Animal Noises" for $400, please DLosc
 
@DLosc I'll take "Stupid TNB Quotes" for 100.
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Years of kindergarten have prepared me for this moment
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing It's not your turn! :P
 
@DLosc I don't know any animal that makes that noise :P

can i go in
 
if I ever write a golf lang, I'll make it only have one program (the empty string), and to write more programs, you have to rename the language.
actually that's just metagolfscript, so nm
 
4:16 PM
Yay, I just pushed a work thing, with the concisest commit message ever:
> …
 
Well I just got rolled by the craziest RNG
I made a thing that prints a random word from a dictionary, and I tried to run it and it printed the very first word. 1/60k chance. And I spent the next 10m trying to figure out why my RNG code was broken.
When it worked fine
Well I broke crostini by trying to paste way too much data

4:52 PM
Did you find a Aleph?
 
First on the list ^^^
 
I made my own tiny wordle
 
@Adám That's Alpha?
 
@WheatWizard Sorry. My bad. Yes, I'm compiling my Hebrew list now. Aleph is
Alef is a discontinued concurrent programming language, designed as part of the Plan 9 operating system by Phil Winterbottom of Bell Labs. It implemented the channel-based concurrency model of Newsqueak in a compiled, C-like language. == History == Alef appeared in the first and second editions of Plan 9, but was abandoned during development of the third edition. Rob Pike later explained Alef's demise by pointing to its lack of automatic memory management, despite Pike's and other people's urging Winterbottom to add garbage collection to the language; also, in a February 2000 slideshow, Pike noted...
 
5:07 PM
I have decided to translate Minecraft to Katlani
 
Ooh exciting
 
nice
 
does anyone have a copy of the Java Edition en_US lang file?
 
I do, but on my other laptop :/
 
5:13 PM
@RadvylfPrograms Got today's Wordle in 2 guesses, struck lucky
 
if anyone has en_US please ping me
 
Kinda stumped on this one
 
@RadvylfPrograms How sure are you that your code is right?
 
95%
The word was "lichi"...
Is that even a word?
 
🤨
 
5:28 PM
@RadvylfPrograms yes
It's a fruit
 
No
That's spelled Lychee
 
no wait
ugh
Don't ask me which grade I got for spelling.
Google says
You can spell it like Lychee, Litchi, and Lichi
No, now google says me lichi is hindi
 
5:46 PM
okay, found a copy
translation time!
 
Who here loves migraines
I know I do
 
gui.toTitle=Fara abail
gui.toMenu=Fara abailii
 
5:55 PM
hmm
trying to figure out how to represent Up and Down
 
"to sky" and "to earth"
 
lia pluban and lia noguna
 
There's nothing for menu or list
 
I'd considered using yi for list ("multiple things")
Maybe yni?
Since yi is not exactly pronounceable
 
5:59 PM
ends in i
 
That's the point
 
oh
i get it
 
I think we used l in bakil, so maybe yli, although I think l is more associated with adjectives
 
@WheatWizard i havé définîtely seen lichi before, although that was probably Indian English
I wonder if Indian English counts as et nglish
 
I suppose posodo vi yi could even work for "list"
 
6:01 PM
@ophact i'm consistent at 4-6 guesses
 
menu.multiplayer=Klok vi makii
 
@GingerIndustries WHY
 
because yes
 
@GingerIndustries maki would make more sense here imo
makii is more like "many people"
 
6:03 PM
@ophact 3 guesses
 
We should probably head over to the katlani room
 
@user probably because lichi is a valid word in Hindi or some language like that
 
@RadvylfPrograms where is the katlani room
 

 TNB Conlang (katlani)

Discussion and usage of katlani, the official™ TNB constructed...
We've had a ton of new users today
 
6:14 PM
@RadvylfPrograms and i'm one of them
i added a word to katlani
 
6:31 PM
@Adám Can also mean f''(x)
 
@emanresuA wait WHAT
back up
 
I've seen people use f^n(x) as the nth derivative of f
 
@emanresuA they must be bad people then
 
@DLosc Nice lol
@RadvylfPrograms damnit
 
And cos²(x) is neither cos(cos(x)) nor the second derivative of cos(x)
So that's three meanings for f²(x)
 
6:39 PM
@RadvylfPrograms That's terrifying

Q: Count the ways to transform (2)

AnttiPYour input is a matrix (2d array) of positive integers. For example: \begin{matrix} 1 & 1 & 4 & 7\\ 1 & 3 & 5 & 6\\ 2 & 1 & 4 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} A semi-continuous transformation of this matrix is a rearranging of elements that preserves immediate neighbors. For example, we can swap the \$2\$ in ...

 
@everyone guys i'm making a new lang
 
6:54 PM
What is it called?
 
icantevenlang - like 1+, but has slightly more functionality
 
@Adám Lambda?
 
There's binary lambda calculus

@DLosc Oh right, I didn't find any, but that may be because it is impossible to search for. AWS Lambda doesn't count, does it?
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Lol
 
att
@emanresuA I've just seen/used that parenthesized, like f^(n)(x)
 
@emanresuA it doesn't help that Juan has posted the three lowest voted answers on MSE, and all three are tagged [discussion]
 
@mods We seem to have agreed to burninate , would one of you mind dealing with that?
 
7:42 PM
i forget how that's done
 
Ask a mod… oh.
 
We can remove it from all 21 questions, without needing a mod
 
Wouldn't that clutter up the homepage?
Unless you mean like, making it a synonym of something
 
apparently burniation requires a dev
let's just manually purge it then
we can't make it a synonym, we can just space out the edits
 
Are all of the challenges tagged with code-golf? if so, you could just merge it (but make sure to get it the right way around :p)
 
7:46 PM
no
the top two questions with that tag have no intersection
 
@hyper-neutrino We could also maybe just do them all at once, since I also need to get a few dozen more RedwolfPrograms -> Radvylf edits out of the way
 
if we don't care about the front page we should just organize a mass cleanup
 
Would purging and then merging it into or something work?
 
How many but non- questions are there?
 
@RadvylfPrograms BREAKING: Mod misclicks, accidentally merges with
 
7:52 PM
@emanresuA why
@pxeger 1
i guess we can just merge and retag that one lol
 
yeah I think that's fine
 
Okay then
 
ok done
and no, i did not merge code-golf into new-years
 
That would've been bad
 
Well, not too bad, right? Couldn't we make a new code golf tag, use it on one question, and merge new years into code golf?
 
7:54 PM
yes
 
It'd only really be super damaging if it was merged with like, fastest code
 
Heh, searching for [new-years] includes codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/4486 even though it has neither new-years nor code-golf
caching is funky
And now it returns no results again
that was very fast actually
 
@emanresuA easy free flag :P

Q: Write a regex that would increment a 2-digit hexadecimal number

Itay123Your regex will receive a string of the form !XX! #<extra> where X is any hexadecimal digit (0-9 and A-F capital letters only), and <extra> is a character sequence to your choosing. (perhaps something like 0123456789ABCDEF0 could be useful?) You may use any regex flavour. Scoring will be calcul...

I don't quite understand what you mean here
Oh do you mean something like loop forever { print choose_randomly(separator, "x") }?
 
Jan 6 at 19:49, by Ginger Industries
when you see some cheese
 
Well like, if I print an infinite stream of "x"s or ""s/separators, it's sort of possible that only one "x" would ever be printed
But the odds are essentially zero
 
I think, because the odds tend to one that an infinite stream of xs is printed, that means the odds of getting a (specific) finite number of xs is zero, so that wouldn't be valid
 
Might want to clarify that in the question just in case anyone with a fancy generatory language tries it
 
9:07 PM
if you use the empty string as a "separator", your suggested program would be equivalent to loop forever { if (choose_randomly(1, 2) == 2) { print "x" } }, which pretty clearly doesn't do what the question asks
 
I wouldn't say "pretty clearly"
But it makes sense that it doesn't
 
What's the best way to word the rule then?
"Your program must always output a finite number of xs"?
 
For any given number of xs, there must be a nonzero probability (however small) that the program will output that many xs and halt.
 
Actually, wouldn't this be covered by codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/4785
 
@pxeger Hmm, true. I guess if you assume that it's technically possible it prints one x and empty strings from then on, it's also equally possible that it prints one "" and then infinitely many xs
 
9:10 PM
I'll just add a note that your program has to halt per standard rules
 
@DLosc Which could be loop forever { if (choose_randomly(1, 2) == 2) { halt } print "x" }
@pxeger I think in this case you might technically have to say "halts with probability 1," since most if not all solutions will be written in a way that makes it possible (though infinitely improbable) that they will run forever.
 
Me and the bois writing a program that halts with probability 2

Any feedback? Particularly, is the description clear, would more test cases be helpful, and should I limit the inputs to square matrices?
 
10:08 PM
@RadvylfPrograms Oh yay, the weird badge awarding thing from when they split the queues finally happened :P
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing I'd need 2 months for this and only on the condition that I'd be able to read them normally
 
@lyxal Take all the time you need, and you can read them however you want :P
 
I think I'm actually going to have to make a sort of script for this one
 
10:35 PM
@pxeger wait, why didn't this ping me?
@pxeger I'd suggest ignoring the empty string - it adds an unnecessary edge case that doesn't make the challenge any more interesting
 
oops wrong room
 
10:54 PM
@RadvylfPrograms for a moment then I was wondering why you were on the deltarune side of tumblr until I realised it was a comment reading video you saw it in
