epicTCK

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

o_O no kidding

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

00:08

:D

R. Kap

@epicTCK I am not surprised...

It's corked

epicTCK

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Just use Regex (to fix the links)... Yes, I know, the xkcd, but I'm too lazy to find it

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

why?

epicTCK

to fix the links

from the github to vihans

you said the links were broke

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

oh

i meant image links

and why would regex help

R. Kap

00:11

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Because Regex is amazing

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

-_-

epicTCK

Its true.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

but not with links

only with murders

and perl

Zizouz212

o_O

epicTCK

and since this is code golf

/bu|[rn]t|[coy]e|[mtg]a|j|iso|n[hl]|[ae]d|lev|sh|[lnd]i|[po]o|ls/ matches the last names of elected US presidents but not their opponents.

it works with code golf

and randomly

R. Kap

00:14

@epicTCK My gosh...Regex saves day again and again.

El'endia Starman

@epicTCK In the future, copy-paste the comic's link, not its image. xkcd one-boxes.

Downgoat

> [TN]|B

epicTCK

@El'endiaStarman um google images I googled xkcd regex since IDK the comics link

Zizouz212

Just go to the comic page

and copy the link

epicTCK

Its funny that regex corrects to reggae

R. Kap

00:15

What is xkcd?

7

epicTCK

@R.Kap WHAT

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

O_O

El'endia Starman

@epicTCK The comic itself is the second link when I do that.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

^^

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Enlighten yourself

epicTCK

00:15

SACRALIGE

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

O_O_O_O_O

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

xkcd.com

El'endia Starman

@R.Kap You're in for a world of fun.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@R.Kap are you joking?

epicTCK

@El'endiaStarman I'm lazy

R. Kap

00:15

OMG you don't know what xkcd regex is?! OMG!!

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

Otherwise, @R.Kap, you're one of today's lucky 10,000!!!

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

confused

Zizouz212

I think I'm going to faint out of shock - have you really never heard of xkcd?

A Nerd - I

Hi

R. Kap

00:16

I have just been using regex...

epicTCK

@R.Kap No its just the fact that you have been in TNB but just now learned about xkcd

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@R.Kap xkcd is a webcomic that often has programming related jokes (not always though).

And very fun.

And very common in here.

Zizouz212

$>xkcd

Shoot.

epicTCK

And sometimes NSFW so you have been warned

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

um, not really?

epicTCK

00:16

or at least NSF people with parents in the house

El'endia Starman

> Warning: this comic occasionally contains strong language (which may be unsuitable for children), unusual humor (which may be unsuitable for adults), and advanced mathematics (which may be unsuitable for liberal-arts majors). - xkcd's tag line

4

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

but yeah like 1 or 2

Zizouz212

I wrote 20 short programs in Python yesterday. It was wonderful. Perl, I'm leaving you.

R. Kap

Those comics are xkcd? I have seen those everywhere, but only now learn that xkcd is what they are called...

El'endia Starman

@Zizouz212 One of my favorites. :D

Zizouz212

00:17

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@R.Kap yeah.

epicTCK

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ I can think of 3 or 4 (Why you ask? I click random. Not that I look for those or anything...)

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Zizouz212 MacBook-Pro:~ rikerw$ xkcd

epicTCK

@R.Kap sigh

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

opens xkcd

@epicTCK 10/10 very convincing

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

00:18

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ sometimes yeah

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

eh

not much though

epicTCK

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ yeah thats an alias for open xkcd.com in ur bashrc profile.

R. Kap

Okay, found the website: xkcd.com/1672

epicTCK

I should do that though

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@epicTCK yes, I know.

I put it there.

epicTCK

00:20

check this out: xkcd.com/1416

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

and in .bash_profile not bashrc

epicTCK

never seen that

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ WHATEVER

A Nerd - I

There's nothing quite like debugging code for 15 minutes and realizing that the problem was caused by FORGETTING THE GODDAMNED PUBLIC STATIC VOID MAIN(STRING[] MOTHERF*CKING ARGS) { }

9

epicTCK

I don't use *nix much because I own a [CENSORED]

Zizouz212

@epicTCK Cursor hovering over offensive

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

00:21

^

@Zizouz212 mac or linux?

Zizouz212

Mac :)

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

:DDDDDDD

Zach, me, Downgoat, VTC, A Nerd - I, Alex, and sometimes epicTCK are the only other mac users IIRC.

epicTCK

Typing on this on a mac

so I'm a mac user

A Nerd - I

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Hello. I'm a Mac. And not a PC.

epicTCK

but I'm not root because this is my moms mac

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

00:23

@ANerd-I cool

epicTCK

Buy I know my dads password on his mac.... so I enabled sudo and added my account to it. But he's still admin.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

do you mind me changing the scroll setting off natural scroll?

@epicTCK you can't set admin rights?

R. Kap

@epicTCK That comic is awesome...

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

ikr

epicTCK

@R.Kap What comic is?

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ If you have a real mouse

k thnx VV

R. Kap

00:24

@epicTCK xkcd.com/1416

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@epicTCK i do

R. Kap

@QPaysTaxes ...

You read my mind...

epicTCK

I will, from now on, reply to other people by editing my previous message. hehehe.

Downgoat

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ what happened to checkboxes

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Downgoat stuf

R. Kap

00:26

Dang...and I didn't even know about their webiste

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

is WIP

Life is too short for man pages, but occasionally much too short without them.

ikr

@Downgoat how link to images in gh pages css

Downgoat

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ background-image: url(image)

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

in css

not html

but the link style?

Downgoat

what what do you mean link image with css

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

/images/empty_check.png doesn't work, ./images/empty_check.png, images/empty_check.png doesn't work.

@Downgoat yeah, but ^?

Downgoat

00:30

is it wrapped in url()?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

yeah

ARGh

Downgoat

D: you're using inline CSS?

quartata

Can you not make a custom .htaccess on Github Pages?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

no

in a <style> tag.

@quartata explain?

Downgoat

@quartata no

quartata

00:31

.htaccess

A .htaccess (hypertext access) file is a directory-level configuration file supported by several web servers, used for configuration of site-access issues, such as URL redirection, URL shortening, Access-security control (for different webpages and files), and more. A site could have more than one .htaccess file, and the files are placed inside the web tree (i.e. inside directories and their sub-directories), and hence their other name distributed configuration files. .htaccess files acts as a subset of the server's global configuration file (like httpd.conf) for the directory that they are in...

@Downgoat ok

What should I do instead for redirects?

I know there's something called Jekyll but I have no idea how it works

Downgoat

use a html meta tag redirect

quartata

That changes the URL in the address bar though right?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

I give up.

Checkboxes are back to the ugly normal one.

brb in 15 min

quartata

Also does the user github.io have to be <username>.github.io?

Downgoat

@quartata <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=<url to redirect to>">

quartata

00:34

Can you name the repo something else?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

that spam flag

quartata

Oh wait, I thought you were saying yes to "can you name the repo something else"

epicTCK

how does this work?

PhiNotPi

How long before this becomes a Facebook platform app? codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/78736/…

epicTCK

2187 years

hi btw

I gave a imugur link and now everyone is browsing imugur

To answer my own question, the imgur.com/gallery/dvnkdud works because graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/66561/…

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

00:43

jsfiddle.net/n9zphb34

Downgoat

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ what does this do?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Downgoat recursive acronym. try it

PhiNotPi

^ what fruit do people see here?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Pear

epicTCK

-1 no avocad

and I see an apple with a pear behind it

This is going to be a fad. I predict it.

Downgoat

00:47

@PhiNotPi an apple

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@QPaysTaxes It shouldn't

A Nerd - I

@PhiNotPi Apple and Pear

epicTCK

@PhiNotPi Provide the imagur link and it will work better

on imugur

here the background doesn't change

A Nerd - I

@PhiNotPi But not an avocad so >:(

PhiNotPi

@epicTCK It's not the same trick.

epicTCK

00:48

@PhiNotPi Really? oh sorry then

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@QPaysTaxes The acronym because ToT not ToS...

epicTCK

WOAH

PhiNotPi

This involves different browsers interpreting the .png standard differently.

epicTCK

scroll up and down and it changes

wut

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@QPaysTaxes ;)

PhiNotPi

00:48

The explanation is here: superuser.com/questions/579216/…

epicTCK

You have broken my browser

Mine is half way between each I have apple safari

A Nerd - I

I still see both and I'm on Safari wth

epicTCK

Yeah try dragging it around

PhiNotPi

It's a pear on my laptop but an apple on my phone. Both Chrome.

A Nerd - I

@epicTCK That works, though I can still see the pear (albeit much more faintly)

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

codingspecialty.blogspot.com/2016/04/…

epicTCK

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Plus one I haven't read it yet but this really annoys me

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

:D

El'endia Starman

@PhiNotPi Pear.

epicTCK

also when I highlight the first sentence ab c and d are red. did you apply wizardry or is this my side?

@El'endiaStarman Avocad

Doorknob

	if(typeof value === "undefined")

Why not just... if value === undefined?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

00:57

ಠ_ಠ

it's not how you do it

Doorknob

Why not?

Downgoat

@Doorknob you can use that but you shoudn't

epicTCK

typeof Doorknob = "alex"

Downgoat

because you can assign undefined to something else

A Nerd - I

Just finished a programming assignment that my teacher wants us to turn in in the form of Word documents. And not in the form of, you know, GitHub repos.
ಠ_ಠ

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

00:59

typeof a === "undefined" doesn't error if a is undefined, but a === undefined throws a reference error

epicTCK

@ANerd-I WHAT?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

(outside of functions)

epicTCK

Like not even .js or .c or whatever the proper file is

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

@Downgoat you really can't

epicTCK

dat techah is dum

A Nerd - I

00:59

@epicTCK I suggested this to her (she asked me to stop turning things in via ideone links today) and she had no idea what GitHub was.
