Are you saying I have big ears?
 
Can someone post the image of the carrot so I can have the imgur link?

@Dennis Big feet, big ears, big teeth
 
@Mego Why blame me? Why not blame the person who designed CJam?
Also, what are you having trouble with? Maybe I can help.
@BetaDecay Big feet? Check. Big ears? Check. My teeth are tiny.

@VoteToClose What's the point of this:
> Your code must have every applicable language extension for every language you use. (carrot.sh.py.bat...)
 
6:19 PM
To continue the meme.
 
@ΚριτικσιΛίθος I scanned your code. AFAIK you can fix the flashy screen withDelVar ZRepeat getkey or Z>5:getkey->A:Z+1->Z:End
^^
 
@VoteToClose Some languages insist on a specific extension or even a specific file name. This means that you can use at most one of them.
 
@Dennis Really? I'll get rid of it then. (whoops)
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ What code in my program should I replace for your code? PS I don't have a variable named Z in my program
 
Yes. C requires .c, C++ requires .cpp, Java with class name carrot carrot.java, etc.
 
6:22 PM
@ΚριτικσιΛίθος DelVar Z resets the value of Z to zero. It's golfier; and it's on line 26, and nevermind, because I just reread your code. Sorry ^^"

@VTC Does it have to be the URL http://i.stack.imgur.com/mecHl.png, any URL to that particular image or any URL to any upward facing carrot?
 
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ the ≠ became the Z I guess... ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
@Dennis Any URL of an upward facing carrot - I'll add that too.

Damn it you guys :D

@VoteToClose Stack your carrots
 
Are you a rabbit too? @quartata
 
Golden carrots are my main food source in my big survival MC world and I also love non-golden carrots RL
 
I mostly use steak at present.
 
@quartata There's another LWSS
 
@Calvin'sHobbies I know
Also I'm a glider not a LWSS

@Calvin'sHobbies Well his about me is awesome

@quartata Darn, have I been getting those mixed up :/

Because gliders are actually lighter than LWSSs.

@SuperJedi224 They are no faster, but they move in a straight line unlike gliders

@Calvin'sHobbies There's also this guy which is even cooler because his profile picture is also a Go board.
 
@MartinBüttner His profile picture looks more like Chuzzle to me.
 
Chuzzle?
 
Chuzzle.
 
Sounds like a brand of cheese-related products
 
6:49 PM
It isn't.
 
Nozzle cheese
 
I don't know why he chose those colours and what the structure on the pieces is, but it's definitely (supposed to be) a Go board.
 
Try new Chuzzle Cheese flavoured gum
 
Reminds me of Dr. Tran reading off the various gum flavors to the chicken in the subway.

And more torches
 
I am puzzled as to what's happened with the Huffman question. Obviously someone (or a group of someones - because there have been no other edits, it's not obvious who) has reopened it, but the question it duplicates doesn't have a single close vote; and yet in the meta question about it, there isn't a single upvote on the answer which favours that combination of actions.
 
@PeterTaylor There's 4 upvotes on it. meta.codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/7326/20469
@PeterTaylor There is now a revision history so it's visible who reopened it.
 
Put the rest of my redstone back in the chest, and then I'm on my way
 
Thanks for the update.
 
@AlexA. No, there are 4 upvotes on the answer which favours reopening the new one and closing the old one. The answer which matches what's happened is on +0 / -4.
Although what I hadn't realised is that the question was reopened before any of those answers were posted, making the discussion somewhat pointless.
 
7:26 PM
@PeterTaylor Oh sorry, misunderstood.
FWIW I'm the one upvote on your post. :P
 
I guessed that, and also that you're the -1 on Martin's.
 
hi @PeterTaylor
 
@PeterTaylor Out of curiosity, what made you guess that? I don't recall publicly voicing my opinion on the matter.
 
The timing.
 
Ah
 
7:29 PM
@PeterTaylor That did occur to me, but I think it's still good to renew the discussion on the topic. The last time serious discussion happened on the issue was last year.
 
@Calvin'sHobbies I would like to join the minecraft server: name = scolix
 
@ΚριτικσιΛίθος You need to ask in the MC server chatroom
 
I have a project in mind, but it's taking longer than expected to get all the parts ready.
Also, my new pumpkin harvester keeps failing to reset properly
But placing a torch above one of the stuck pistons and then breaking the torch seems to help for some reason

@SuperJedi224 Are you on the PPCG server or somewhere else?

You should probably build a gold farm. Helps a lot with powered rails
 
And... I just ran out.
Back up the stairs to craft some more.
 
7:38 PM
Even really simple ones can produce decent amounts of gold on hard
 
@quartata How does one build a gold farm?
 
Just takes a lot of obsidian
@El'endiaStarman Nether portals produce zombie pigmen which drop gold nuggets
 
That's what I guessed.
 
Makes gold a renewable resource
