The Nineteenth Byte

10:00 PM

@Adnan But that's not necessarily abuse? I've seen people asking Dennis to "eleven" something. Anyway, that more or clarifies it for me, thanks!

flawr

@NathanMerrill unfortunately she doesn't seem to make any videos anymore (that is where I got the pun from)

DJMcMayhem

@LuisMendo yeah, they're joking.

ThreeFx

@ColdGolf I'd go for it

Dennis

@ColdGolf There's a big difference between a language that accomplishes one task in 0 bytes, and a family of languages designed to accomplish all tasks in 0 bytes. The former is allowed, the latter isn't.

Adnan

@LuisMendo Nah, not necessarily abuse :)

ColdGolf

10:00 PM

@Dennis We're not talking about MGS anymore. Scroll up.

Luis Mendo

@DJMcMayhem I kinda knew I wasn't going to get a serious answer... :-)

Dennis

@ColdGolf We already have a consensus on that, and the answer is no.

Nathan Merrill

@flawr so, as long as I don't have a gun, I can use my knees on the steering wheel? got it :)

ColdGolf

@Dennis Okay.

Nathan Merrill

@trichoplax hopefully :)

flawr

10:02 PM

@NathanMerrill oh hey

Conor O'Brien

@trichoplax wait, you don't think people should drive cars?

DJMcMayhem

@flawr that would be really impressive in a manual

trichoplax

@ColdGolf I think you already mentioned the meta post where this is answered. If your code cannot be run, then the language is not eligible to compete

2

flawr

@DJMcMayhem you mean a pedal

Dennis

@ConorO'Brien In a couple of decades, they may not need to.

Conor O'Brien

10:03 PM

@Dennis and the alternative being?

ColdGolf

@trichoplax My question was slightly different that this, but I agree with your point.

Dennis

@ConorO'Brien Realistically, self-driving cars. Hopefully, transporter beams.

trichoplax

@ConorO'Brien I think it's only legal because we don't yet have the automation fine tuned. Once we do, the huge number of deaths resulting from letting humans drive can be avoided, and I can't see many countries keeping human drivers legal for more than the next few decades

Conor O'Brien

oic. a nice compromise would be the musk tube

ColdGolf

@Dennis Self driving cars can be dangerous.

Indeed.

Conor O'Brien

10:05 PM

that metro thing

flawr

@ConorO'Brien googled musk tube, was not disappointed

ColdGolf

@ConorO'Brien Driverless trains are self driving vehicles in a restricted, controlled environment, which is different.

ThreeFx

On self-driving cars: Why not DIY?

Fatalize

@ColdGolf Probably less than drunk drivers

ThreeFx

Wow formatting is not what I expected it to be

Conor O'Brien

10:06 PM

@flawr yeah, it's so cool :D

ColdGolf

@Fatalize Maybe :P

Dennis

@ThreeFx You have a space between ( and the URL.

Chat doesn't like that.

flawr

@Fatalize Probably less ~~drunk~~ drivers

ThreeFx

Wow like 2 billion spaces in there... Thanks @Dennis.

ColdGolf

@flawr A decrease in the number of overall drivers is not a proper solution.

Luis Mendo

10:08 PM

@Dennis The former seem to be around the corner, if we believe the news. As for transporter beams, I recently saw this on Twitter and found it amusing

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx The DIY self driving car concept faces the problem of automotive standard acceptance.

trichoplax

I'm not suggesting we should switch to driverless cars now, but I think it will only be a few decades max before they are sophisticated enough to be far safer than even good human drivers, let alone the average human driver

ColdGolf

@LuisMendo There's an "image not found" error.

Dennis

@LuisMendo hahahaha

Luis Mendo

@ColdGolf Really? It works for me

trichoplax

10:09 PM

@ColdGolf Yes I guess you'd need a DIY road network to go with it...

ColdGolf

@trichoplax Yeah :D

Geobits

I'm pretty sure they're already safer than the average driver.

Fatalize

You would also need to adapt the roads to simplify the cars' work, and there are a lot of law issues

so I wouldn't say it's that close

ColdGolf

@Fatalize Law issues are not as big of an issue as the technology itself, which needs to evolve.

ThreeFx

@ColdGolf Seeing as beaming is still a bit far, I guess automobile transport is going to stick around at least a bit, especially with all the investments (Tesla, ...) going on

Fatalize

10:10 PM

@ColdGolf law issues are a big issue, because they involve people's lives

flawr

@Fatalize set a person's life's worth to $10, problem fixed

ColdGolf

@Fatalize The self driving car technologies themselves involve risk. The law is just an added risk, that the cars may not be allowed on a standard road.

ThreeFx

I agree with Fatalize, many people are not going to be happy with the behaviour of self driving cars, which brings us back to the trolley problem.

Geobits

If it gets me there in reasonable time, I'll be happy. Having to drive every day is a chore I'd love to be rid of.

ThreeFx

@flawr Kappa (actually, it's like 6 million or so, isn't it?)

ColdGolf

10:12 PM

@ThreeFx The trolley problem seems a bit paradoxical.

flawr

@Geobits trains ftw

ThreeFx

@ColdGolf But it's exactly what you need to answer for yourself to find out how you want your car to behave.

Geobits

@flawr Oh I agree for many places. The infrastructure and geography in the US isn't as suitable for trains as many places.

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx I do not agree with the premise of the trolley problem.

Dennis

@Geobits At least here, that's definitely true.

flawr

10:14 PM

@Geobits and politics/culture I guess?

Geobits

@flawr Some of that, too, but we're very sprawly here, and trains are better suited (imo) for denser areas.

ThreeFx

@flawr Trains are sooo inefficient. I'll demonstrate:

flawr

@Geobits They can also be a good option for longer distances, e.g. for connecting cities.

ThreeFx

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx Can you please latex format this?

Fatalize

10:16 PM

@ThreeFx That doesn't make any kind of sense

Rohan Jhunjhunwala

I want to see more intercal golfers

Geobits

@flawr Right. That too. But the sprawly suburbs areas just don't work as well.

flawr

@ThreeFx That probably heavily depends on the area. Also depends on what efficientcy you are talking about. Consider e.g. energy efficientcy.

@Geobits It probably really depends on many factors. I think e.g. berlin has a very nice train network, that also works for the suburbs.

ThreeFx

Sure, you win the efficiency battle (and I'm a big fan of trains, don't get me wrong) but I need an hour to reach the nearest city while it's like 10 minutes by car. I feel like I'm stranded in a rural village.

ColdGolf

@ThreeFxPlease factor all relevant factors, not just the total time to reach the destination, but also total cost of the journey, etc.

In that case, aren't trains cheaper than cars?

At least in the short term.

flawr

10:18 PM

@ThreeFx That again probably heavily depends on where you are, e.g. in switzerland that isn't always the case.

ThreeFx

As long as you're in a city already (e.g.. Frankfurt or so) public transportation is wonderful

@flawr Oh? I felt it was a long way to Geneva. Granted it was a Regio

flawr

@ThreeFx From where to where?=)

ThreeFx

I think Basel to Geneva (and +30 minutes to CERN). Bout 2 hours passing the beautiful lake.

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx The core of your argument seems a bit subjective.

flawr

@ThreeFx Keep in mind that you don't have to drive. (ps: do you live in zürich?)

ThreeFx

10:20 PM

@ColdGolf I wasn't 100% serious ;) But I always feel like owning a car would save me about 1 hr of time per day

@flawr I'm going to! Looking forward to start at ETH this fall :) (just got back from my apartment)

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx That's not a quantitative thing.

ThreeFx

Are you in Zurich too?

flawr

@ThreeFx What subject?

ThreeFx

@flawr Computer science

flawr

Cool=)

ColdGolf

10:22 PM

Är jag i Zürich? Kanske, kanske inte.

ThreeFx

Basel?

Luis Mendo

Funny how you guys have written "Zurich" in three different ways in just a bunch of messages

ColdGolf

@LuisMendo The correct way is "Zürich"

ThreeFx

Three?

Actually you may write it as "Zurich" in English (it's the same for "Munich")

ColdGolf

Nah.

That's wrong.

Luis Mendo

10:24 PM

@ThreeFx With umlaut, without, all lowercase

ThreeFx

Ah, I am too used to PASCAL to notice cases

flawr

@ThreeFx IS PASCAL ALLCAPS?

ThreeFx

It's completely case insensitive

But our comp. sci. teacher always wanted neat ALL CAPS for KEYWORDS

My code looks so bad because cases are all mixed up XD

flawr

@ThreeFx DROP TABLE Students.

@ThreeFx So did you already get a degree, or did you have CS classes in school?

ThreeFx

"Hello? Yes your son flawr" DROP TABLE STUDENTS; --" caused some problems today." "Database?" "No he didn't mess with the system, he just beat up three kids at lunchtime"

flawr

10:27 PM

@ThreeFx shhh don't tell those guys here

ThreeFx

@flawr I had is as my Leistungskurs in school (do you know that concept?) and always loved programming in my spare time. But no degree, just competitions I took part in.

flawr

@ThreeFx Ah cool, yes I did something similar. But CS did not have enough math for my test.

ThreeFx

s/test/taste?
Anyway all I hear of is that math is a big part of CS...

Syxer

Me and my kernel:

flawr

@ThreeFx taste, yep=)

ThreeFx

10:32 PM

@Syxer So you ...broke it?

flawr

Sure, but unfortunately not all kinds of maths are used that much in CS.

Syxer

@ThreeFx neh. Sparring with it in my hopeless attempts to make it work for me

ThreeFx

@flawr I'll see when I get there :D

Syxer

are gif links banned now? :c okayy

El'endia Starman

@flawr Of course!

flawr

10:34 PM

@ThreeFx It is certainly never a bad idea to spend time with both=)

trichoplax

@Syxer See the last section of the chatiquette

Dennis

@Syxer Not banned, but it's a rather large GIF (7.5M) and it was slowing down my connection and nibbling away at my capped data plan.

Syxer

@Dennis D: okie

@trichoplax Weird, is that new?

flawr

@El'endiaStarman How about deaf people without CI who have really bad hearing?

Syxer

I hadn't seen it before.

That section of chatiquette, that, is. :P

El'endia Starman

10:36 PM

@flawr They can drive too. I imagine the instruction is a little different/harder, but the majority of driving is visual, so it's not that big of a deal for deaf people to drive.

Now, the problem comes in when they like to talk...

What I've heard is that typically when the driver is talking with the passenger through sign language, whoever is speaking at the moment is the one watching the road.

trichoplax

@Syxer It's always been a good idea, for the reasons Dennis gave. I don't know how long it's been in the chatiquette

flawr

@El'endiaStarman I've also heard about communication problems with the police recently...

Syxer

kk won't do it again. :)

El'endia Starman

@flawr That's probably been going on for a while... :P

trichoplax

It's not a blanket ban - sometimes a GIF is a relevant part of a conversation, but even then linking to it rather than oneboxing is best if it's not small

(gives people the choice)

Syxer

10:38 PM

Yeah most of my gifs aren't super on-topic. :P

flawr

@El'endiaStarman Oh, I was talking about this.

The 95% confidence interval suggests Rexthor's dog could also be a cat, or possibly a teapot.

Great

My ~1.5yo headset just broke

ThreeFx

@flawr: d ^ 2 / 4 = A?

flawr

10:53 PM

@ThreeFx huh?

trichoplax

More like D = floor(exp(1))r

ThreeFx

@flawr Oh shit, radius != area lol
I meant `d = r / 2` :D

trichoplax

;)

flawr

@El'endiaStarman this smells like ~~teen spirit~~ a new challenge idea=)

trichoplax

@ThreeFx You may be looking at your circle inside out :P

ThreeFx

10:57 PM

You know it's math when you know the words but not the meanings.

flawr

@ThreeFx Haha, that is soo true=)

I need to print this...

trichoplax

@ThreeFx Your avatar is purple in the avatar bar for me now - is that new?

ThreeFx

@trichoplax It's purple for me too, but the small one and the one left of the message window is red still. Did it change for you?

El'endia Starman

@ThreeFx Ctrl+F5?

ThreeFx

Tried already

Nothing works, neither today nor a few days back

@flawr I'd take a shirt or two off your hands if you don't mind.

flawr

11:01 PM

@ThreeFx Oh I just thought as a banner on our department building=)

El'endia Starman

Huh, weird. Indeed, it's red in your chat profile, but purple on your parent site.

ThreeFx

@El'endiaStarman I'm mysterious :D

@flawr Well that works too. Kinda reminds me of the reddit story of the kids who lined up in sports so the letters of their shirts spelled profanity.

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx Do you know group theory?

ThreeFx

@ColdGolf Only the most basic stuff sadly.

DJMcMayhem

Quick question: RO's can unstar messages, right?

Rohan Jhunjhunwala

11:07 PM

By unstar you mean remove from the starboard?

Geobits

If they can I have no idea how

DJMcMayhem

Ye

Rohan Jhunjhunwala

Huh I didn't know

Idk

El'endia Starman

@Geobits Mouse over a message on the star board, click the little black triangle, and see if the option "clear stars" is present.

trichoplax

@ThreeFx The one I noticed just now is the purple one in the "avatar bar" that shows everyone's avatars together at the top right of the window

DJMcMayhem

11:08 PM

@RohanJhunjhunwala Could you help me test it? Star something in this room

Rohan Jhunjhunwala

@DJMcMayhem done!

ThreeFx

@trichoplax It was purple since I can remember. I don't think my pics have changed, they are just wrong sometimes

Geobits

@El'endiaStarman Oh, I can't right now. Mobile chat sucks

DJMcMayhem

@El'endiaStarman It's present for me in my room

El'endia Starman

I don't watch Computerphile videos; they're aggravating somehow. Most likely in that the accents of everyone makes them really hard for me to understand. What's especially weird is that the ones who talk on numberphile don't have that problem.

I kid. What's up?

Destructible Watermelon

say I have a function like def sort(item,index):return item[index], and then I want to use it to sort something

ColdGolf

Are any maths geeks here? I need help.

ThreeFx

@ColdGolf "Math" is kinda general...

Destructible Watermelon

11:14 PM

usually, I would do sorted(list, key=sort), but that will not like the lack of enough positional arguments

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx Okay, group theory geeks.

I need one ASAP.

DJMcMayhem

@ColdGolf I like math, but I'm bad at the harder stuff. What's the question?

trichoplax

@ColdGolf I'm a geek who likes maths - is that close enough?

Not much knowledge though...

ThreeFx

Is @flawr our math expert?

ColdGolf

@trichoplax I guess.

El'endia Starman

11:15 PM

@DestructibleWatermelon sorted(list, key=lambda x,y: ...)

Destructible Watermelon

@El'endiaStarman well, that's not entirely what I wanted

Martin Ender

@ThreeFx did those competitions involve the BWInf? :)

DLosc

@DestructibleWatermelon I guess I'm not sure I understand the question.

Sp3000

@ThreeFx We have a few people that count as one I think :)

Adnan

@ThreeFx There actually are a lot of math experts here

ThreeFx

11:16 PM

@MartinEnder It may have been :) Why are you asking?

Destructible Watermelon

so, say I had a list of strings, I wanted to sort

DLosc

K

Destructible Watermelon

list_of_strings.sort(key=sort(<thing that will refer to each item when it is sorted>, 3))

Martin Ender

@ThreeFx just curious because I took part a few years ago. how'd that go for you?

ThreeFx

@MartinEnder Actually, very well. I got first prize. And for you?

Martin Ender

11:18 PM

holy crap, I'm impressed :D

I got to the final round, but didn't do all that well there

ColdGolf

@trichoplax I'm giving a lecture tommorow. Need help ASAP.

Is there a non-trivial finite order automorphism $$\varphi$$ of $$\Gamma_g$$ such that $$\rho \circ \varphi = \rho$$?

Sorry for the multiple lines, that's a ChatJax rendering error it seems.

DLosc

@DestructibleWatermelon I get that you're trying to sort the list using a custom key function, but beyond that I'm lost. What is your key function trying to do?

Martin Ender

Is Wolfgang Pohl still organising it?

ThreeFx

@MartinEnder Thanks. I was too :D That in itself is worthy of attention. I just got plain lucky with the right interviewers.

Destructible Watermelon

doesn't matter, I think I'm on the right track anyway

ThreeFx

11:19 PM

Yep, he is, at least AFAIK

Didn't follow the recent one

Martin Ender

k

Destructible Watermelon

ok, doesn't seem like I'm on the right track anymore

ColdGolf

@trichoplax Pls.

Sp3000

@ColdGolf I think you probably need to give a bit more context for people to be able to help, eg you haven't defined $$\Gamma_g$$

Destructible Watermelon

what I want to do is sort a list with a function that takes two positional arguments, and use the value of the item as one argument, and something else as the other argument

ThreeFx

11:22 PM

I'm trying to find the year you participated in to see we know the same people :D

Syxer

:I

trichoplax

@ColdGolf We don't have mathjax in our chat

Syxer

DLosc

@DestructibleWatermelon Ok, what's the something else?

Destructible Watermelon

let's say a number

DLosc

11:24 PM

Is it constant, or does it depend on the value of the item somehow?

trichoplax

@ColdGolf Asking is OK, but "Need help ASAP" followed up by "Pls" isn't likely to get you quicker answers, and may annoy people

Q: Multiple assignment in Lua

Is there any better way to golf this (other than removing newlines/indentation)? function(a,b,...) local c=s({v=b},a) local d=ll for i,v in ipairs{...} do d=d:push(v) end return c end I'm particularly bothered by the double local usage, but as Lua does not have multiple assignment, and...

@DLosc I'm really just looking to see if there is some sort of keyword that allows access to the item being sorted. but I don't think there is

In case anyone is wondering why I got that notification, here is the question... in question.. You'll see why it's related at the bottom of the question.

ColdGolf

@trichoplax Fine I'll just cancel the lecture

Syxer

11:27 PM

@ColdGolf ...don't think that was his point.

ColdGolf

@Syxer I'm not going to teach students something I don't know anyways.

So I might as well take the day off.

ThreeFx

No need to get annoyed, asking for a seasoned group theorist at 1:30 European Time is kind of difficult I think. (of course, in the U.S. it's still reasonably early)

Syxer

@ColdGolf Consult Mathematics.

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx universal European time is a thing?

ThreeFx

@ColdGolf Well I usually dor for GMT + 1 + DST (CEST) since that's where many Europeans live.

trichoplax

11:29 PM

@ColdGolf I didn't say don't ask. I only pointed out the parts that aren't helping you get answers, and may put people off from helping you. You seem to be jumping at any chance to criticise people. I don't know if it's something you're aware of - glance back at what you've written if not.

Martin Ender

"GMT + 1 + DST" *twitch*

Sp3000

@ColdGolf As I said, you didn't quite provide enough context for people to be able to help

ColdGolf

@Sp3000 How?

ThreeFx

I never said I was good at times :D I just learned that's called CEST or CET

trichoplax

@ThreeFx CEST French time?

ColdGolf

11:31 PM

@ThreeFx I think you mean UTC+2, right?

Oh wait that's the same thing....

ThreeFx

CEST is UTC+2

Sp3000

@ColdGolf You haven't defined $$\Gamma_g$$ and $$\rho$$

ColdGolf

@Sp3000 Whoever understands the question would know them, no?

Martin Ender

@trichoplax Since everyone else ignored it, I just thought I'd let you know that I smiled at your joke. ;)

trichoplax

Yay!

DLosc

11:32 PM

^^

ThreeFx

I'm a Latin scrub and a lost cause for learning languages, sorry ;)

ColdGolf

I must've missed the joke..

CEST = c'est(?)

C'est

C'est la vie.

11:34 PM

@ThreeFx Yes that was my bad joke :)

DLosc

@trichoplax C'est magnifique!

Destructible Watermelon

is there any function equivalent to str.replace(substring,'')

ThreeFx

@trichoplax Judging by some of the jokes I failed to pull off, it's fine :)

trichoplax

If I knew more French than "c'est" I could have made it read better...

Sp3000

@ColdGolf Not really - Greek symbols can have half a dozen meanings in maths and even if there's standard notations, like g meaning group element, I can't tell if you mean a general group element or an element of a specific group. It's like saying "what is f(0)?" without saying what f is.

trichoplax

11:35 PM

@DLosc Merci!!

ColdGolf

@Sp3000 I guess so.

@trichoplax Merci has multiple meanings.

El'endia Starman

@ColdGolf For some reason, I feel like you're trying to pass yourself off as more knowledgeable than you really are. There are certainly a bunch of people in here who know at least some group theory, but none of them really understand your question. The onus is on you, not them, to clarify the question so they can help.

trichoplax

@ColdGolf Best I stop trying to pretend to know French then :)

Syxer

oml

Adnan

Anyone recognizes this?:

DLosc

11:37 PM

@DestructibleWatermelon I.e., deleting a given substring? AFAIK that's the best way to do it. You could also use regex if you want to overengineer the problem. :P

ThreeFx

Au contraire, I like it :D (to continue bragging with nonexistent French knowledge ^^)

@DestructibleWatermelon the key argument is a function that gets the current item so you can do what you want with it. It returns the sorting "key", i.e. the order you want things sorted in.

It's really hard to tell. I thought at first it might be Luis but the pattern isn't angled right

Ooh, isaacg?

trichoplax

It's not quartata is it?

R. Kap

@ThreeFx Ah, interesting.

ColdGolf

@ThreeFx And I was wondering the whole time....

Destructible Watermelon

how to use %formatting to get binary?

Adnan

@quartata It actually is Luis

Rohan Jhunjhunwala

@HelkaHomba wow

ThreeFx

@Adnan I never would have gotten that

quartata

@Adnan Huh. That was my first instinct but it's very warped if it is

trichoplax

And the string is 19 bytes long...

quartata

You can kind of tell from the top center pattern: it looks like the helmet

Adnan

Yeah, there is also an option to zoom in and turn right

DJMcMayhem

@HelkaHomba congrats!

ThreeFx

The angle threw me off

quartata

Yeah, me too.

It's obviously been rotated a bit

Adnan

Sadly, it takes about 5 minutes to generate a deep one :p

SILOS CMC write either an interpreter in SILOS for brainf*** or compile bf into SILOS (bonus points for writing a SILOS compiler to do it)

@trichoplax And it's an anagram of "Teeth. Ninth Byte. Nee."

quartata

I'm interested to see what isaac's looks like

trichoplax

@ColdGolf I don't think that was part of the decision though ;)

R. Kap

Anyways, I have an interesting challenge proposal: Given an input of a Mathjax image of any polynomial, output that image's polynomial with all like terms combined and all "cancellable" terms removed.
