That's how it looks to me too, actually. I didn't notice it before though.

Interestingly, nothing stops an ex-president from running for the House of Representatives, being elected, rising to become the Speaker of the House, then after both the President and VP passed away, owing to [looks at current candidates] a murder-suicide perhaps, returning to his old job for a single term — Malvolio yesterday

Geobits

I saw that earlier. I'm inclined to disagree.

Not that it's technically disallowed...

But I can't see a freshly elected ex-pres getting to Speaker within 10-20 years. House politics are ruthless as all hell, and most presidents don't make friends there while in office to begin with.

@MartinEnder @Sp3000 I have some vague ideas going. Hacked together a small proof-of-concept in Python. The main drag is going to be adding syntax for regular programming-language stuff like math, loops, etc. It's easiest to piggyback off of Python's abilities, but it won't be very golfy, plus I hear golfing libraries are frowned upon.

ASCII-only

@DLosc D: piggybacking

Destructible Watermelon

I think I might make a thing like that anyway

DLosc

The main reason I'm not pursuing the idea with more gusto is that I feel like 70% of it will be reinventing the same operations that have to be in any golfing language: arithmetic, string operations, control flow, etc. I've already done all that once with Pip and I'm not terribly interested in doing it all over again.

I've got a chat challenge!

So there's an infinite string like so: 12345678901234567890... with 1234567890 repeating on and on

You can insert operators into those strings

So you can do 12+3 for 15

and 12*3 for 36

You insert syntax like so:

You have a string of +-*/

Which is used like this:

+ -> 1+2 = 3

** -> 1*2*3 = 6

++* -> 1+2+3*4 = 1+2+12 = 15

betseg

12/3=4?

Qwerp-Derp

(order of operations is used here)

You can also use ~ to include multiple numbers

So ~~ = 123

And ~+ -> 12+3 = 15

Destructible Watermelon

this seems like the kind of thing that could be posted on the main site

Qwerp-Derp

7:51 AM

~~* -> 123*4 = 492

You must also include brackets

Martin Ender

9:06 AM

@flawr In my opinion it's fine. Operators are just a different notation for functions (although in most languages they aren't first-class objects even though functions are). Like I said, defining operators is actually common practice in other languages, so I don't see why the rules for counting built-in operators should be different from counting built-in functions.

@ErikTheGolfer I can't ping you in here.

Erik the Golfer

@zyabin101 Now you can.

zyabin101

If you won't spam in here, I might add you as writer in my thought room.

Erik the Golfer

@zyabin101 I hate spam, that's why I might flag your two messages on the other room for mod attention, although I'm not sure if there is an 'obsolete' flag in chat. Also, I tend to edit messages, not post new ones, if the edit is on the same context.

zyabin101

@TùxCräftîñg here is my level archive: github.com/schas002/Rocks-n-Diamonds/blob/master/…

@zyabin101 So you're saying that we can spam in your room?

zyabin101

Nope, you can't.

Fatalize

:(

Erik the Golfer

@Fatalize zyabin is picky sometimes, and, because it's his own room, he can be as picky as he wants.

@PhiNotPi Well, this has 27 stars till now, I think the quote should really be back.

But programmatically ignoring me is hating me?

@zyabin101 What?

ASCII-only

:O A new-ish user actually using the sandbox

@zyabin101 No, I'm telling you he doesn't do that...

A message from March proving that Marky hates me.

Geobits

Yes. I'm saying that is not currently in there. I'm not sure how much more clear I can make it.

Oh, so it's a bot from Geobits that use Markov chains and PPCG messages to send random stuff?

Geobits

No, it doesn't really use Markov chains. I just liked the name for a bot.

Fatalize

So what does it do? Print random messages from PPCG?

Geobits

It's my attempt to play around with tensorflow. It's an RNN.

He's in Beep Boop Maggot and The Block at the moment if you want to play around with it.

He's in training mode at the moment, so it's not a "finished" product right now.

zyabin101

Too bad I can't see the source code...

Geobits

I didn't write "the source code". It's publicly available in the tensorflow package. The only modifications I made were changing the training materials and feeding it into SE-Chatbot (also freely available).

@Fatalize oh, you're not a little bit, cartman.

wat

Geobits

Bonus: both of those are python, which I don't really know well, so it's terribly hacked-together.

@Fatalize Oh. Yeah.... he likes watching South Park. Did I not mention that?

Fatalize

Its answer to 2 + 2 : "yeah."

0/10 worst bot ever
