@Dennis Isn't that just the memes post?
It's looking VERY likely that Adnan will outgolf Dennis on the lipogram question.
YAY
22:02
@Mego I was thinking about something like the Chuck Norris/Bruce Schneier/Jon Skeet facts.
(Disclaimer: I'm not actually suggesting we should do this.)
I haven't golfed in a while, so I'll ask: is it cheating to redefine what truthy and falsy mean in your explanation of your answer? Example
@El'endiaStarman whoa 4 bytes
now I know how he got 6k rep in 3 months
@Rainbolt Non-empty strings are truthy in Python, wile empty strings are falsy. I suppose Osable behaves like this, but I haven't checked.
It does.
22:06
Oh, so that's how you say that language's name
Or Osabie
Well, the pronunciation is due me. :P
Or Usable
I actually just say Base.
22:07
Is it usable? I can hardly read it
No
@quartata That was the intended name haha
I'll just call it wasabi since we're all picking names.
@quartata For Jolf?
@Rainbolt Osabie, Wasabi, why all Japanese names
Is Osabie a Japanese name?
22:10
Sounds Japanese
Osagie is Nigerian. Osabie I can't find at all.
:p
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Sorry, what are you replying to?
1 hour ago, by quartata
@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ You need to make your code page look weirder so people have no idea what is going on
Oh yes haha

I might :P
I recommend CP862

Identical to 437 except the accented chars are replaced with the Hebrew alphabet

I might try to beat you to the answer :P
My program worked last night when I finished and didn't work this morning, meaning either my code didn't actually work last night, or that when I woke up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, I decided to start programming.
Anonymous
And by beat you to the answer I mean help you with it
@Mego I mean what chars do you use to make one
@MartinBüttner Case in point: I'm learning animal words and from "Die Spinne frisst die Fliege" I was able to deduce that "Spinne" meant spider because of the connection with "spinneret", which is where the silk comes out of a spider, and accordingly "Fliege" must mean "bug", but "fly" is more likely, and indeed, that was correct. Now, I understand that this example is particularly amenable to such deduction, but still. German makes sense to me.

I'm already in the top two pages, but I won't turn down free swag.
i'll probably ask my friend who's parents don't care what they do to give it to me and i'll give his address
Can I just buy it? I'd love a PPCG tee
If I programmed for fun as a child, I think my parents would have been ecstatic.
Instead I played Halo

I did. My dad was ecstatic >_>
@Maltysen I'll take that swag of your hands for a very reasonable price of 1 million rep

Q: That's a prime... almost

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'BʀɪᴇɴIf you've ever learned about primes in math class, you've probably have had to, at one point, determine if a number is prime.

What's the char?
complex, or conversion?
OK seriously I swear every single time I finally get around to updating my GMod dedicated server a new version comes out
@Maltysen Conversion
Do we have a challenge to, given two characters, print all characters within that range?
