wat?
which puzzle is this
 
@MartinBüttner I was trying to work out how you used tan(pi/6) and I used tan(pi/3), but we both ended up with the same size wedge. Although I mistakenly wrote down 30 degrees as pi/3 instead of pi/6, since tan(pi/3) == 1/tan(pi/6) I applied it to y instead of x and ended up getting the same result, so I didn't notice my error until I saw your calculation here...
 
:D

Q: Draw A Snowflake

TheBestOneJoe lives at the Bahamas. It is winter. His children are disappointed that there is no snow. Joe needs to make snow for his children. Fortunately, he has a 3-d printer. He plans to make snowflakes with it. Unfortunately he has no idea how a snowflake would look like. In fact, he has never seen a ...

 
oh
 
According to my thermometer, snowflakes are cool

What? No! Why would anyone star that??
 
10:09 PM
Here, have another star :P
 
And now it has my name on it in the star bar...
lol
 
> Input: ... the percentage of the image that is actually a snowflake.
really?
 
@githubphagocyte I could always delete your account, which would solve that problem.
:P
 
@Doorknob冰 being very quiet now... :)
 
@Doorknob冰 do you actually know chinese?
 
10:11 PM
@TheDoctor I released a number of particles corresponding to the number of pixels required to be filled based on that percentage, but sometimes they grow too sparsely and don't meet the percentage anyway...
 
oh
 
@TheDoctor No. (See my profile "about me" section)
 
mmh

@Optimizer here's one for you codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/42967/8478
 
wasn't that rather simple ?
 
@Optimizer hm that's sorta lame :D ...
 
what ? :D
what's lame in that ?
 
that there was a simpler solution that the one I intended
 
^.^
I just took the standard fibonnaci from the examples page :P
 
10:34 PM
I had finally found a use for j :D
oh lol
 
@Geobits Although I'm very interested in whether there's an answer to your question, I'm wondering whether the existence of infinite sequences would matter for your contest. As long as there exist a lot of very long sequences, is that enough to have a contest? Would a valid answer include the terminal prime, and therefore exclude infinite sequences?
 
show me your original
 
T1]l~\{(_j\(j+}j
 
haha
never ever

@MartinBüttner for unknown reasons, this is always going in an infinite loop codepen.io/scrapmac/pen/XJjGaR?editors=001
at the inner do while loop
(uncomment line 31)
 
sorry, don't have the time to read the code right now
 
sure. its so frustrating I have to restart my browser every minute..
thank god that release firefox allows me to debug it while its in an infinite loop ^.^
 
@Doorknob冰 I'd remove the "Edit the cop's answer if you have edit privileges (if you do not, either wait until someone else with the required privileges does so for you or suggest an edit)." I think the cop should review the crack whether it's valid.
 
ughh silly JS maths
 
11:16 PM
@Optimizer on my screen this displays two identical branching structures (one translated down and right from the other)
 
I am experimenting with mirroring
 
Just seen the translate(-100,-100)
The branching structure now looks like it would make a good snowflake once reflected/rotated
 
11:35 PM
@Optimizer lol, we've both been pretty stupid on the rotation-safe numbers
 
@MartinBüttner It should be fairly easy to verify whether a crack is valid, right? I mean, there's no subjective criterion
 
y ?
 
By the way, your BattleBlock challenge is fun :D I have an ungolfed solution; now all I have to do is golf it
 
@MartinBüttner y?
 
@Optimizer see (and copy) my edit
@Doorknob冰 finally... ;)
 
11:37 PM
lol
I am still ahead of u :P
(or maybe not)
 
@Doorknob冰 no, but people make mistakes, so someone double checking the solution would be nice, before the robber declares the cop to be cracked. we had several invalid cracks for Unscramble the Code.
@Optimizer why not? you can save 2 as well
 
@MartinBüttner ... is it okay if the program goes into an infinite loop if the puzzle is unsolvable? Because I could save a few bytes if that was allowed :P
 
yeah, just saw it was at two places
how stupid of us :D
 
@Doorknob冰 nope
@Optimizer I'm pretty sure I've made that mistake a few times before
 
@MartinBüttner Hm, I suppose so. I'll change it soon.
@MartinBüttner Heh, that's what I would have guessed.
 
11:56 PM
why are people downvoting this guy's answers? am I missing something? codegolf.stackexchange.com/users/34638/ksft
 
do the answers not work ?
