@Downgoat something about silver matrices

honestly not sure

my teacher is not the best IMO

quartata

@Qwerp-Derp MathOverflow is for graduate-level math questions mostly

Qwerp-Derp

But isn't math.se mainly about graduate-level maths?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@quartata yes

aka my teacher gave us a random problem she thought of and doesn't know anything about it

-.-

it's supposed to be on linear algebra

quartata

@Qwerp-Derp Not usually

Qwerp-Derp

00:01

Ah

quartata

There is some overlap though, you're right

Qwerp-Derp

It's a really blurry line isn't it?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

shitty design = smart people

so we win

Qwerp-Derp

lol

Is it like the blurry line between english language learners and english language & usage?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

yes

wtf mo has a button for citing that question

Qwerp-Derp

00:05

lol

Downgoat

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ google ks telling me it is shampoo...

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

Downgoat

clearly a shampoo

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ just write down shampoo as an answer

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

will do thanks for help math people of TNB

Downgoat

@ASCII-only pls halp what am i supposed to ad to classes

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ s/math people/everyone but downgoat/ ;_; :P

Downgoat

@quartata how are you planning to do inheritance in pytek?

do I copy parent class's scope to child's?

quartata

@Downgoat We won't have classes.

We have types which are basically like structs.

Downgoat

i.e. C :P

quartata

Well, they can have methods

Qwerp-Derp

I see all the sites

StackOverflow too

Downgoat

00:11

@anyone pls halp beta test ches ;_;

quartata

They're just fields that contain functions when you think about it

Downgoat

so functions are first class?

quartata

But we won't really have any of the OOP things like encapsulation or inheritance (at least not currently planned)

Downgoat

well you have lambdas AFAIK so that was dumb quesiton

Qwerp-Derp

And I think to myself

What a wonderful site

quartata

00:13

@Downgoat Technically yes.

Maltysen

@quartata so like js then?

quartata

Except JS's STDLIB uses objects

which is dumb

ASCII-only

@Downgoat npmjs.com/package/mocha-benchmark

@quartata ?

quartata

@ASCII-only Most of the things in JS's STDLIB are methods, and in general JS tries to be OOP

Downgoat

> Hacky mocha

cheddar is not hacky language

Qwerp-Derp

00:24

@Downgoat When are you planning to make an IDE?

Or a syntax highlighter?

(I can help with that)

Downgoat

@Qwerp-Derp i have syntax highlighter as you can see on cheddar.vihan.org

no ide yet

you can help?

Qwerp-Derp

(Because I'm bad at programming, that's the only thing I can help with...)

quartata

@Downgoat That animated thing still bothers me

Also does that code snippet work yet

I thought you didn't have generics

or tuples

Qwerp-Derp

"Cheddar inherits traits from many languages, to be familiar to most programmers." - Downgoat 2016

The grammar...

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

it's gaotenlighs

@Downgoat if you write a interpreter for GPP in snek, then i'll add that to FOG.

ASCII-only

00:26

@Downgoat You need a TextMate syntax, so when you build the latest cheddar for browser you can use Ace as an editor

Qwerp-Derp

You definitely need an Atom theme

ASCII-only

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ GPP?

Qwerp-Derp

What's GPP?

quartata

You really need to turn your grammar into a Vim syntax highlighting thing

Downgoat

Gaot++

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

00:26

^

Qwerp-Derp

@Downgoat Do you need an Atom highlighter? I can make one

Downgoat

@quartata generics are WIP

quartata

It should be pretty easy if you have your lexing rules already written out

Downgoat

I'm still considering making tuples

Qwerp-Derp

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ What is FOG

Downgoat

00:27

@quartata yeah, i had an entire text doc with entire cheddar parser grammar

ASCII-only

@Qwerp-Derp github.com/RikerW/Fuzzy-Octo-Guacamole

Downgoat

ill have to dig through git to find it tho

@Qwerp-Derp :O that would be awesome

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@ASCII-only lol nice

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Whoops

pls use message reply otherwise i have no idea context

Qwerp-Derp

Ah

Downgoat

@quartata idk how to though

gaot doesn't want to read docs

Qwerp-Derp

00:29

@Downgoat Really?

quartata

@Downgoat Gaot can't google clearly

Qwerp-Derp

Ah deed it (I mean, I replied to the message)

DJMcMayhem

@quartata That sounds fun. I'll do that!

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@quartata wait you didn't know gaot is not computer wiz?

silly pichu, he's a computer gaot

Downgoat

@DJMcMayhem do you have experience with making vim plugin?

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

00:29

@DJMcMayhem oh god that means reading through downgoat's code

RIP DJ, died of chedr

Downgoat

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ ;________; y u sai dis

gaot code is beautiufl

DJMcMayhem

@Downgoat enough

Most of it because of V

quartata

@Downgoat V is written in Vimscript, so I'd say yes

Downgoat

SO MUCH MEANINGLESS COMMENTS AND EXCESSIVE WHITESPACE

@DJMcMayhem :O you made V syntax highlighter??

DJMcMayhem

And answering a crapton of vim questions across the SE network

Downgoat

00:31

oh...

quartata

The Cheddar code is actually fine (but sometimes your style is inconsistent)

don't let non-goats bully you

DJMcMayhem

@Downgoat no. I don't even know what that would look like.

quartata

@DJMcMayhem Hideous

DJMcMayhem

It would also be really hard cause you'd need a lot of parsing to find out what mode each char is in

Downgoat

@quartata to be fair I've written cheddar over almost a year now and I've matured as a programmer quite a bit which can explain those style changes

Cheddar was my first time I'd ever used node

so that too

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

00:33

@DJMcMayhem s/across the SE network/on vim.se/?

or are they really everywhere

Downgoat

@DJMcMayhem vim seems to have some way to create a syntax higlighting language but it requires lots of vimscript it looks like

i dont even know where to start

I'm not sure how I would distribute it mainly

quartata

@Downgoat vim.wikia.com/wiki/Creating_your_own_syntax_files

Q: What can we do to attract more questions to the site?

Right now, my assessment is that this community is very healthy, and doing very well in most stats. For example, my anecdotal experience is that we have a lot of very knowledgeable vim users who are always eager to help answer questions. I'll very frequently try to answer a question only to see ...

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

DJMcMayhem

00:34

quartata

@Downgoat For now you can just have a script that plops it in .vim for the user I suppose

Eᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏ Iʀᴋ

@Downgoat You could do that too

Downgoat

I guess I should create the syntax higlighting thing first though

Qwerp-Derp

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ As an avid vim user, if someone prefers atom over vim that's totally fine. Sure vim is faster, but for some people that doesn't matter.

anyone here have experience with vim syntax files?

DJMcMayhem

00:47

:h display?

Downgoat

@DJMcMayhem quesiton: what is difference between \d and [[:digit:]] in vim regex?

   -display {display}	Run vim on {display}		*-display*

@DJMcMayhem not very informative :/

DJMcMayhem

@Downgoat uhm..... I'm pretty sure the only difference is that [:digit:] works in a range and \d does not

Downgoat

Can you gimme a test program in Cheddar with everything in it?

Destructible Watermelon

Write everything twice

you write the same thing twice, what is the point of that syntax

Downgoat

01:38

oh of course cheddar would not have that

let something_instance := class { args }

that is reccomended way

Destructible Watermelon

I mean, if you write let something: class= ____{args}, what is the blank going to be?

DJMcMayhem

@Downgoat I've seen that before...

Maltysen

@Dennis closest I've found to something that actually has percents, but it's only for installation percentage on Windows machines: web.archive.org/web/20130423142801/http://www.codestyle.org/css/…

In what context? Jelly calls them atoms.

DLosc

I'm creating a language that's roughly imperative, I have a bunch of stuff defined in builtins.py, and I'm getting tired of typing builtin.functionname :P

Dennis

from builtins import * :P

DLosc

I'm considering it.

If not, maybe steal a page from the C++ book and call it std?

Maltysen

pyth uses macros.py, but that name is because historically it was appropriate when it was just a transpiler

PhiNotPi

@El'endiaStarman on the topic of chess... have you ever realized how much theory material is out there? There's literal tons of books dedicated to specific chess openings (in the style of that PDF, but obviously more thorough and actually serious)

Dennis

03:56

I like atom since it separates user-defined functions by being composed of other functions, but Jelly isn't afraid to use exotic terminology. :P

PhiNotPi

quality control, in my opinion, is extremely poor

Dennis

std or lib seem like good choices.

DLosc

Ooh, I like lib. I think I'll use that. Thanks!

El'endia Starman

@PhiNotPi How do you mean?

PhiNotPi

@El'endiaStarman maybe a better word is "overpriced." Lots of them hype themselves up as "the best book" to teach you this one "killer opening" to "completely dominate (insert opponent color here)" and then charge $30. Not to mention lots of extremely-low-production-value videos/DVDs.

why does the move stockfish recommends lower the perceived advantage for that side...

@DestructibleWatermelon Lower by how much? It's probably just due to the evaluation depth.

DJMcMayhem

@betseg good luck! I hope you feel better

betseg

Thanks

PhiNotPi

For example... looking 10 moves ahead the computer sees X, but when it actually performs the move and looks 10 moves ahead, it's seeing one move further and can now see things it didn't before.
