If I could just spend an hour or two on my various maths homework instead of wondering why you posted what seems to be a black and white gif of a dancing animated cat with... something, my life would probably improve...
I think your life would improve if you embraced your country and became a true patriot by removing the "s" on "math" and ceasing all extraneous uses of the letter "u".

:D My opinion may be worth something, but I meant it in the sense that I care so little about how to spell the word favorite that my opinion is entirely arbitrary.
My speech patterns are pretty American. I have relatives in the UK and they can't understand a lot of what I say, probably because I use too many colloquialisms that don't translate. My cousin Kurt in the UK is just completely unintelligible--way too many British colloqualisms. No idea what he's talking about and I can barely understand him through the accent.
The most fun is talking to my grandpa. English is his third language.
My grandpa's first language is Tatar. Second is Japanese because he grew up in Japan after his parents ended up there fleeing unrest in Russia. Third is English. Those are what he's fluent in, but he also knows some Korean, Chinese, Turkish, and Thai.
German (I believe) has "der" -> masculine, "die" -> feminine/plural, and "das" -> neuter. The other articles come from being in different cases (nominative, dative, genetive...) and there are charts you can find for what should be used in different situations. I believe "denen" is a "the", too... but it's been a while for me.
(All information comes from high school memory--my brain was considerably addled all the time back then, please don't shoot me for mistakes)
As briefly as I can explain it, the way you end articles and adjectives can vary with where you put the noun they describe. "The pencil is big" and "I write with the pencil" use two different "the" forms because "pencil" is the subject in the former and an indirect object in the latter.
Writing a good spec would be very difficult. I'd probably have ~9-12 nouns, ~5 verbs, and use nominative/accusative/dative case in simple sentences. Still probably subject to odd cases and crazy loopholes, though.
Lets play a game of Meta tic-tac-toe!
This is a king-of-the-hill tournament of Meta tic-tac-toe. The rules of Meta tic-tac-toe are as follows:
All of the regular rules of tic-tac-toe apply.
There are nine boards arranged to make one master board. Like so:
0|1|2 || 0|1|2 || 0|1|2
----- ||...
I mainly work on this monstrous Java thing. It's hibernate/spring corporate junk, so throw some js in along with some basic html/css. It's nasty and not fun at all :P
According to some quick googling, it was solved, but then they added the rule about a free move when you get sent to a board that has already been won.
@DJMcMayhem If you want more participants, it's a good idea to make it as simple to enter something as possible. For example, keeping track of the board state in a separate file might put some people off. It's not that cumbersome, but you'd be surprised how lazy people can be sometimes. Since the controller is going to have the state each turn anyway, why not pass it as an argument?
I had thought of that. I guess when I started writing the controller, I didn't know where to start, and I thought it would be easier to write the controller in it
Thanks. I was actually in that exact scenario in real life the other day. There were 5 of us and 4 chairs so we kept moving. I thought to myself "Where will I be sitting in 5 rounds? Is there a formula?"
Then I thought "Ooh this would be a great code-golf!"
Print strings using different sets of characters
You will write n programs. The kth program should output the number k in standard English. So the first program should output one, the second should output two, etc.
But no two programs in your submission can share characters. For example, if you...
@Calvin'sHobbies Tiebreaker is earliest post. How would you feel about earliest posted finished code instead? So if I post something 100 bytes long and then reduce it to 50 bytes later, I would be beaten by someone who posted a 50 byte solution after my 100 byte solution but before I reduced mine to 50.
Or more succinctly: First to reach the winning number of bytes

@sirpercival I'm slow this morning :P I'd really rather not trade. I don't really understand this material, so I should really actually try. Right now I'm hoping for some pity points...
It's alright, I've got circles pretty well. Right now, we're doing solutions to 2nd order differential equations near a singular point. I'm getting there, but it's kinda confusing.
I'm still pretty sure I don't handle every invalid input. I don't like having to deal with bad inputs in code golf... It's just messy and doesn't contribute to the fun.
But it can't possibly be as twisted as this guy's view. If it was, then why doesn't the class have a class? And why doesn't that class have a class? And so on and so forth.
When I write Java code I feel like I know exactly what code is running. The complexity of expensive functions is in the Javadoc. When I think bloat, I think .NET and C#, where I don't even understand the page lifecycle and the documentation, while it looks nice, doesn't identify the complexity of pretty much anything except for sort and the other major algorithms they teach in school.
So most of the bloat I guess comes from the people writing Java
For most bare Java, that seems true enough. Add in any big libraries and that quickly changes IMO. If I'd never heard of hibernate/spring, I'd be much more content.
He gave a maximum cyclomatic complexity but I forgot what it is
Of course, every time he provides a rule, he also shows some code that breaks the rule that he says he would leave alone because it does the job cleanly.
It is worth it IMO. If you watch a lot of television after hours, you can just make yourself watch an hour of Pluralsight per day instead (and then get back to your television)
