@QPaysTaxes When in another room and you see the most recent post in this room, for example, the strikethrough doesn't render. So I just saw "You people suck rock."
@Downgoat You're on Mac, right? If you use iTerm2, the terminal has mouse support. It's nice when you want to get somewhere in Vim and can't remember how.
@Downgoat I also use NeoVim, but Visual mode doesn't guarantee mouse recognition. NeoVim by default has mouse=a (full mouse support) but whether its usable is reliant on whether the terminal emulator has mouse support.
@QPaysTaxes I always have my phone with me if I'm not at my computer which has Coda so I can setup a FTP into my VPN, so I don't even need to do anything online
Alice and Bob are playing a little game. First, they draw a tree from a root node (indicated by a thick dot), with no internal nodes, with numbers at the leaves. Any node may have any number of children.
We start at the root, and first to play is Alice (A). She must select one of the current n...
@ChrisJester-Young why can't they calculate it with the actual credits given? why do they have to subtract this small proportion (opening balance) at the beinning of each statement period?
@JesterTran The opening balance is how much you owed the credit card company at the beginning of the month/statement period. It's there to remind you that you actually have extra owing, above and beyond what you spend in the current month.
Granted, JSX !== ES6, but, Babel is required to handle JSX and it's usually set up to handle ES6 too.
@JesterTran Okay, let's try this. At the beginning of February, you owed your credit card company $100, say. You spend $200 in February. At the end of February, you owe your credit card company a total of $300.
@JesterTran The $100 is the opening balance. The $300 is the closing balance.
hmm, when you have some multi-line plain text and you want to show it in html, what would you choose between "white-space: pre-wrap" and using <p>'s and <br>'s ? it seems that I have different things done in different ways :p
I plan to structure the definition basically the same way as a function, which means that there is potential for the infix operator being defined to be included in its own definition.
@MarsUltor Right. Which is why I'm curious to hear about the usecases @El'endiaStarman has in mind.
@MarsUltor (In C++, postincrement and postdecrement is idiomatically defined in terms of preincrement and predecrement, respectively. But I don't know if I call that "recursive".)
Pytek is intended to be an actual, mainstream language that aims to reduce the amount of programmer work, largely by identifying and leveraging common patterns, such as nested loops. There are two overarching goals: 1) make the computer do as much of the programming work as possible, and 2) succinctness is power - there are great benefits to saying much with few words.
@ven Hm. That's basically a case of the Pyth parser rules being rlatively simple, and not intended to cover that case really, and it happening to work out anyways.
@Morgan'Venti'Thrappuccino Makes sense, most quest in monster hunter will end up taking 20-40 mins of try-hard to be completed... Not really recommended in this situation ^^
@EasterlyIrk Nothing is. It's just a well designed game, and you easily lose track of time because everything takes a lot of it, while being stressing for your nerves -> feels like 5 mins have passed when you've actually played 45 mins
Also, people tend to have putted a lot of effort in it because it will reward you for how good you're getting, it's your skill at playing that really matter, not your character's stats
@TimmyD More like general discussion for every other stackexchange x)
I think that's why our chatrrom is so active, and usually friendly, we actually get to know each other a little more, sometimes by speaking of technical things (maybe related to work), our countries or our hobbies
As I compose this answer (http://codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/76418/4787) it occurs to me that I would never actually put that into a shell script. I would just type it at the command line, with the parameter filename at the end.
Does it make sense to count the characters in that command line ra...
@TimmyD wherein we accept Alex's right to be wrong on the internet, but also like to be wrong on the internet, so occasionally we're wrong on the internet about Alex's wrong on the internet, and that's also okay? It made sense at the time.

I'd say we should set that to the new topic but then @badp would complain
@El'endiaStarman Python vs JavaScript is a rivalry? I thought it was the sort of thing where you gave JavaScript an unplugged controller so it could play along and pretend it's doing stuff while Python does all the hard work and actually beats the game.

> You create a gun module, a gun class, a foot module, and a foot class. After realizing you can't point the gun at the foot, you pass a reference to the gun to a foot object. After the foot is blown up, the gun object remains alive for eternity, ready to shoot all future feet that may happen to appear.

There are also OSes. Excluding Windows Vista :shrug:
Basically, each "bot" has a simple program that is just a series of steps to execute each turn (move forward, turn, etc.). The goal of a bot is to collect "crystals" strewn about the board.
The twist that this challenge would have is that, instead of programming the bot directly, users will write a program to program the bot as the game progresses.
@El'endiaStarman You can even make a self-reply message (though it requires you to edit in the current message's id after the fact), or even a message that replies to a future message (ditto).
Background
You awake to find yourself lost in a one dimensional labyrinth! A mystical genie (or something) appears and explains that the exit lies in front of you, but that between you and the exit is a series of challenges. As you wander forward you realize that all of the so-called challenges ...
(Trivia: I have tried making self-reply messages by guessing the next message ID. That won't actually become a self-reply until you edit the message, even if you don't change anything in it.)
