@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ I don't speak emoji

@aditsu I tend to agree, but I'm biased towards strong and static typing, so take that as you will ^_^

@aditsu "occasional use in web pages" - not sure what you mean

@9cHeruinr96a >_> = suspicious

@Optimizer well, you know how you can have script tags in html? :p

@Geobits cc @NathanMerrill this is correct. I didn't choose a name for Hexagony until after the design of the language was finished. I just chose the name because I figured that it would be quite a pain to use, but that wasn't actually a design goal. (If it was, I'd actually have failed... the language is a lot more usable than it seems.)

Optimizer

well, its never occasional is what i meant

Happy 10k @ETHproductions!

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ don't serial upvote

@aditsu If chat bounties were I think I would give you all teh reps

@Doorknob I actually only gave him 15 rep.

@Doorknob the other ~30 was from someone else ._.

Chat downvotes.

@Doorknob I don't usually. This was a one-time occasion. That being said, I won't.

gotta go bai

@Doorknob I wonder if going through a person's posts and evaluating their posts normally count - this is, not giving an automatic upvote

ADIOS AMIGO

YAY I hablos espaniolos

As far as the automatic serial voting detection algorithm is concerned, anyway. The "would it be accepted by the community" part might or might not end up being the same.

@Doorknob Why is this strictly bad? I have a hunch many people have upvoted my posts without fully reading them because they trust that I write good on-topic challenges.

@Roujo I'm also kinda biased in that way, but I think python is a fine language

@Doorknob (I kind of agree, just sayin)

@HelkaHomba The focus of Stack Exchange is the content, not the users who produce it.

@Roujo Depending on how you go about it, that may or may not be recognized by the serial upvoting detection system. You can read and appreciate the content posted by a single user, but there are plenty of other users who post good content who deserve similar attention. ;)

Okay, really now, 40+ votes on the lipogram question? ... I'm fine with it... :P

(from Spanish) But I speak a little Spanish. I have a class at my school

Martin Büttner

@El'endiaStarman Ah yeah, don't worry, that's apparently because people vote on the user who posted it, not because it's good.

Q: It's the end, but the code-golf has been prepared for

Welcome to BBC Casting. We need a program that we can use to select a new actor to play The Doctor on Doctor Who. In the spirit of the show, your program will perform a regeneration from one actor's name to the next. We will test your program by running through the 13 names of actors who have al...

@AlexA. Right. What I did do before is look up the answers of high-rep users to try and find interesting challenges. I then went through the list of answers, voting on those I found deserved it. It does meant that my votes have a bias towards certain users, mind you, and I'm not sure if that's okay. I looked on the meta, but couldn't find an answer.

@AlexA. Bing translates incorrect grammar better than it does correct sentences, apparently :P

@AlexA. Free rep! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ :P

@Roujo I'd say that's fine so long as you also take the time to appreciate and vote accordingly on content from other users.

@Doorknob *El Bingo

At least I take solace in the fact that I did put at least some effort into the challenge by writing it as a lipogram. :P

@Doorknob But if you trust a user's content and want to encourage more, a badly-researched upvote is not strictly a terrible decision.

I am disappoint

@AlexA. Yup, I do. I guess that makes it less of a sniping thing and more of an AoE =P

@Doorknob ....

:P
