@QPaysTaxes maybe a shebang-esque thing

Geobits

@QPaysTaxes Probably not, but I don't wanna write the version number on the first line ;)

@Maltysen o_O

Maltysen

@Geobits maybe then you could only use the lowest common denominator if you don't?

Geobits

File extension change :)

Of course it is, that's the point.

Hello hello

Yea, I think I have a picture I took from a C-130 doing that somewhere around here...

@Downgoat did you end up choosing a style for cheddar's logo?

Doorknob

@QPaysTaxes ... weren't you complaining about it only having 2 upvotes earlier?

Geobits

@QPaysTaxes Whether or not the OP finds it useful, it will be useful to anyone who ever has to read dhjeir code.

Downgoat

@Quill yeah

Geobits

@Downgoat Hopefully it's the dark orange on black. Right?

Unrelated, I'm a little sad that my answer telling people to comment well only has two upvotes. I thought people thought that was important (also I want more green crack)

@Geobits y'all voted for this one

Q: Coding Around The Clock

Write a single line program two or more characters long that contains no line terminators and takes no input. For example, your program might be: MyProgram When your program is arranged into the shapes a clock's hands make at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock, it needs to output the corresponding hour n...

@Downgoat If you want to indicate that it's a programming language...I'm not sure you've got there

@HelkaHomba brb, adding curly brace around logo

Helka Homba

Mmm, curly cheese braces

Doorknob

@QPaysTaxes it... does?

Geobits

That's not cheese, it's processed cheese food. You can tell by the yellow.

Downgoat

@HelkaHomba you got curly cheese in your braces?

Helka Homba

How does printable-ascii shaped macaroni not exist?!

El'endia Starman

3:08 AM

@HelkaHomba Oh that's so cool!

Downgoat

@Geobits of course it's processed, how else is it supposed to interpreter the code?

Geobits

@Downgoat I think there are laws about how you can market your cheese if it's not actually cheese :P

Helka Homba

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ > The initial program arrangement (MyProgram as is) does not need to do anything. Only the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock arrangements need to have correct, well-defined output.

@HelkaHomba I'm sorry, I'm an idiot

Nah, it's fine

Geobits

Processed cheese

Processed cheese (also known as prepared cheese, cheese product, plastic cheese, or cheese singles) is a food product made from cheese (and sometimes other, unfermented, dairy by-product ingredients); plus emulsifiers, saturated vegetable oils, extra salt, food colorings, whey or sugar. As a result, many flavors, colors, and textures of processed cheese exist. Its invention is credited to Walter Gerber of Thun, Switzerland, in 1911. == AdvantagesEdit == Processed cheese has several technical advantages over traditional cheese, including: far longer shelf-life; resistance to separating when cooked...

Geobits

Your language is like the Velveeta of cheeses. Easily meltable, but not very tasty.

ಠ_ಠ who here downvoted my jquer answer

Ashwin Gupta

@Maltysen oh don't worry about it I got it. Ty tho.

@Geobits I hate that stuff :(

Geobits

3:13 AM

@Downgoat raises hand

Sorry, it's just about as close to the textbook definition of "not useful" as you can get imo.

Ashwin Gupta

How does one make tags like that?

Geobits

Nah, I'm not gonna link-bomb him ;)

Ashwin Gupta

@QPaysTaxes same

we r kidding ofc

Geobits

@AshwinGupta Oh, but it does happen :P

Ashwin Gupta

At least I am, I can't speak for the evil unicorn man...

@QPaysTaxes :O [gasp]..

Downgoat

3:18 AM

@Geobits ;_; why?

Geobits

It's not my fault you linked me to a jokey answer to a five-plus-year-old question.

Doorknob

I went to your profile to go find it. I looked at it, was about to downvote it, and then I realized I already had.

@Geobits You downvote this too?:

Kobi: I think it's time for me to quit the post of Assistant Don't Parse HTML With Regex Officer. No matter how many times we say it, they won't stop coming every day... every hour even. It is a lost cause, which someone else can fight for a bit. So go on, parse HTML with regex, if you must. It's only broken code, not life and death. — bobince Nov 13 '09 at 23:18

and bai for real

Doorknob

@Downgoat Also, that one is funny.

Downgoat

@Geobits but would you?

Geobits

@Downgoat Probably. But there's also a difference between that one and yours. That was a meme-starter. Yours is a meme-jumper. I give more points for creativity :P

Downgoat

Oh wait, makes sense. Geobits, the downvoter, nvm.

@Geobits Wheye did you post this?

(sorry)

Alex A.

@Doorknob You should be! Everyone knows puns are not accepted here.

Geobits

@Doorknob Never apologize for this.

Alex A.

3:32 AM

@Downgoat There's a difference between a pun and intentionally inane misspelling.

Doorknob

@AlexA. ... okay, I spent way too long trying to find the pun in this message.

Downgoat

@AlexA. ohhhhhhhhh, just saw the pun :|

Alex A.

@Doorknob The pun was in your heart all along

Doorknob

Now Downgoat nose why I spelled it like that.

Geobits

@Doorknob You did finally find it though, right?

Doorknob

3:33 AM

@Geobits Yeah, of course. It's pretty obvious.

Downgoat

@Doorknob these puns are really ear-itating

Doorknob

@Downgoat Oh, stop being so cheeky.

Geobits

@Doorknob Ok, just checking. I didn't want it to go over your head, since you're only about waist-high.

Alex A.

Downgoat

@QPaysTaxes cars?

Alex A.

Maybe he was referring to C--, the language.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

@QPaysTaxes Cool?

Geobits

I can only think of a few three-letter C-words that would fit that blank, and none of them are good >_<

Alex A.

@QPaysTaxes D:

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

Alex A.

Good night

Geobits

@QPaysTaxes You shouldn't be cutting off people's C-words...

Quill

@QPaysTaxes I can say for certain our cool factors are in the high 90th percentile

Geobits

@Quill That sounds a bit contradictory >_>

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

Any vim users cough @Doorknob have any thoughts on what would make vim a better golfing language?

Phrancis

It's 0.90%

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

3:38 AM

I'm looking for inspiration.

Alex A.

@Quill We're all so cool, it's like a refrigerator in here B)

Quill

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ If it made sense

Doorknob

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ Why do you always start talking about this right before I have to go to sleep? :P

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

@Doorknob Why do you always have to go to sleep right after I start talking about it?

@Quill :(

Geobits

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ Maybe that should tell you something :P

Downgoat

3:40 AM

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ are you proposing a vim golfing lang?

Doorknob

@Downgoat He already started one

Alex A.

He already has one: V

Ninja'd

Downgoat

Oh..

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

@Downgoat Now that's a crazy idea!

Downgoat

i hope it's not just aliases of vim cimmands :/

Geobits

3:41 AM

Please tell me it acronyms to VIGOR. Something stupid like VIm Golf: Oh Really?

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

@Downgoat Part of it is, but only the stuff that I find really useful in vim that takes a lot of keystrokes, e.g. recursive macros.

I'm going to add more on top of that.

Which is why I'm looking for inspiration.

Downgoat

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ ok

Phrancis

"Uh, I can read my own code... better invent a golfing language to fix that!"

Geobits

@DrGreenEggsandHamDJ I'm really trying to give you inspiration.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

O rly? I ardly know er!

quartata

3:44 AM

I really misss User Friendly

(I assume that is what you were referencing with VIGOR)

Quill

I really miss the Quines... They were just so beautiful

Geobits

@quartata Not really, just the whole "vim and vigor" phrase in general.

quartata

Oh.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

@Geobits Ooooh. Vim and vigor. I get it now. That took way too long.

Geobits

If you ever need any evidence that explaining jokes kills them, just link here :(

(although, I'm only half joking. great name, just needs better backronym)

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

3:47 AM

How good can a single letter backronym be?

Geobits

? I mean one for VIGOR. That's five letters.

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

But the name is V

Although VIGOR isn't a bad name.

Geobits

Oh, you already have a name picked out :(

Dr Green Eggs and Ham DJ

I mean, it's not set in stone.

I've posted like 3 answers in it so far.

Hello @R.Kap!

GamrCorps

Calculus people out there: what does the δf(x)/δt notation mean? (the δ notation)

R. Kap

@Downgoat Hello!

Alex A.

3:52 AM

@GamrCorps You mean ∂?

GamrCorps

Probably, never sure on the actual symbol

R. Kap

(devomer)

GamrCorps

it just looked like a δ to me

Alex A.

Oh, it's different from lowercase delta. But anyway, ∂f(x,t)/∂t is the partial derivative of f(x, t) with respect to t.

So you differentiate f with respect to t, treating x (or any other variable in there) as a constant

Does that make sense?

GamrCorps

Yes! Thanks!

Cyoce

@Downgoat Which one?

Alex A.

@Geobits If I'm not mistaken, it was requested that I genetically convert something into an elf.

Downgoat

@Cyoce (the one conor was talking about) I'm using it in Cheddar if you don't mind

Geobits

3:59 AM

@AlexA. That's what I got out of it. Or maybe you should alter something so that it looks elven-made. Could be either.

@Downgoat of course I don't mind! I love to see people using my stuff!
