Doorknob is always here lurking, Alex is still active, I think mainly dennis and martin are not here often.

Doorknob

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Always.

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

shit

o_O majik doorknobs

speak-of-the-doorknob

Helka Homba

Knowing Doorknob he probably has a userscript that pings him any time a capital "D" is mentioned

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

pls send teh codez, I need one for small caps.

Alex A.

@HelkaHomba So mentions of Dennis would also ping Doorknob?

Helka Homba

23:03

Dennis is Doorknob

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

oh, right.

Alex A.

Surely Doorknob would design the userscript such that the false positive rate is lower

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

Door?

Alex A.

@HelkaHomba Has this been proven?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

Yes.

Doorknob

23:03

Ah, but a userscript is unnecessary. You're all my chatbots anyway, so I know when you mention my name.

Helka Homba

@AlexA. Everyone = Everyone round here anyway, ^ see

Nathan Merrill

@AlexA. boulder, CO

Alex A.

Beep boop give all your reputation to Doorknob I am chatbot

Nathan Merrill

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ either Google drive or Google payments

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Doorknob oh, right. I forgot. :/ maybe time for a firmware update?

@NathanMerrill payments?

like android pay?

Alex A.

23:05

@NathanMerrill Oh nice! That's not too far from where you are now, right? Aren't you in Provo?

Nathan Merrill

Their backend system to hook up to payment gateways. (Mostly they are focusing on 3rd world countries, who apparently use arcane methods)

@AlexA. yeah, close to there. It's about a 8 hour drive

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Doorknob wait, even alex?

and geobits?

I thought they were their own chatbots?

@NathanMerrill okay

Helka Homba

@QPaysTaxes Only technically.

Minibot? You mean Minibits

ok

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@QPaysTaxes oh, okay.

@QPaysTaxes where does Minibot come from then?

Minibits already has a digital brain. :P

> Minibits is Geobits' android

> Minibot is Minibits from the future after digital brain uploading

Minibits = Android

Minibot = Digital (redundant) Minibits?

@QPaysTaxes ...

Helka Homba

"Minibits" is what @Geobits calls his irl kid, for the record

I don't think it's his actual name

but who knows

Helka Homba

Devon knows?

Maltysen

VTCAKAVSMoACE

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Yes, and they shall appreciate their namesake.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

s/mouse/purzdoge/

Alex A.

Is "acavẽs" some kind of language for "avocado"?

translate: acavẽs

(from English) acavẽs

The answer is apparently no

Q: Greatest Divisor for Python

I got introduced to Python a week ago, and so am new to the language, but was wondering if there was a simple way to find the greatest divisor of an integer in Python. I have figured out how to find the greatest common divisor, but am curious as to finding just the divisor. I apologize if this so...

python

Maltysen

23:22

@AlexA. it works in google: translate.google.com/#auto/en/acav%E1%BA%BDs

Helka Homba

Mini challenge: rotate the consonants in a word one spot to the right. e.g. avocado -> adovaco -> acodavo

Alex A.

Hm, that actually sounds kind of hard.

Helka Homba

ok Axel

Alex A.

s/kind of //

VTCAKAVSMoACE

@HelkaHomba ;)

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

It's invalid after the new challenge is posted

Helka Homba

Nice Namltyes

Alex A.

Doesn't preserve spaces

Maltysen

@AlexA. do I need to @HelkaHomba?

Alex A.

Well you're only rotating consonants, right? I assumed all other characters should be left intact.

Helka Homba

23:27

Erm, sure

Maltysen

> rotate the consonants in a word

Alex A.

oh

¯\_(i can't read)_/¯

VTCAKAVSMoACE

Also, does anybody know how to do this? I forgot to ask here first.

Maltysen

@AlexA. I'm doing all non-vowels instead of consonants

Helka Homba

And it'd be cool if capitalization stayed the same. Cat -> Tac instead of taC

Phrancis

pyth.herokuapp.com/…

^ where did the j go?

Helka Homba

got juiced

Phrancis

evidently

Maltysen

@Phrancis oh lel, my thing is borked if you have repeated consonants

Alex A.

@QPaysTaxes I don't want to test it

@HelkaHomba You could make this into a nice challenge for main

Laziness

I has it

Helka Homba

@AlexA. Someone else can. When I turn every idea I have into a challenge I never get anything else done >.<

Alex A.

23:34

haha

Helka Homba

Let's test something

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

"i can't read".replace(/ c(an)(')(t)( )rea(d)/g,"$1m$4$1$4i$5io$3")
"ianm an idiot"

Helka Homba

I'm expecting this message to get between 2 and 5 chat stars.

Maltysen

@CᴏɴᴏʀO'Bʀɪᴇɴ Information Assurance Network Manager?

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

idk

Helka Homba

23:37

This message will obviously get starred: Helka is a better name than Calvin

13

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

stair bait

but eh

VTCAKAVSMoACE

What happens when starred messages get deleted?

Star void?

Helka Homba

Black hole

Maltysen

@HelkaHomba ಠ_ಠ

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

#fail

"i can't read".replace(/ c(an)(')(t)( )rea(d)/g,"$0m$4$1$4i$5io$3")
"i$0m an idiot"

that's not it.

Maltysen

23:41

XD

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

there we go

you get no stars

A Nerd - I

@QPaysTaxes It's because you're actually an idiot and not being facetious :P

Alex A.

Hey @LuisMendo, are you around? I have a Matlab question for you.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

Speaking of questions, do you believe in stars?

Nathan Merrill

This message will obviously get more stars: Calvin is a better name than Helka

What is QI?

VTCAKAVSMoACE

Quite Interesting, it's a quiz/comedy in the UK.

One of the best shows here, IMHO.

Also, watch the entire thing - that is actually related.

Cᴏɴᴏʀ O'Bʀɪᴇɴ

k

mınxomaτ

@VTCAKAVSMoACE I beg to differ. IMO Graham's show is the best.

VTCAKAVSMoACE

23:52

@mınxomaτ Graham's show?

mınxomaτ

bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006xnzc

VTCAKAVSMoACE

Oh, THAT show, Graham Norton.

Eh.

I watched one or two, didn't really like it.

mınxomaτ

Well, it's certainly better than any american late night ~~garbage~~ show.

@mınxomaτ colbert?

mınxomaτ

@Maltysen I like him, except the interview style.

I get the feeling every late night show host is trying to hard to be a character. Whereas in the Graham Norton show (which is essentially one big interview), the guests are actually the main focus.
