@El'endiaStarman They're same on main and meta. Content dispute, e.g., locks the question but not its answers.
Huh. Either I'm remembering badly or I'm remembering old lock reasons/functionality.
So... when voting?
Shortly.
@Pavel Probably soon after we get the site design.
6-8 weeks is way too long.
That's like, March
21:07
oh my sweet summer child
@Downgoat :( but it's okay
Wut
don't worry about it
@Pavel 6-8 weeks is SE talk for "i'm too lazy I'll do it eventually" or "it's not going to happen in the near future" or "it'll get done in a couple years"
"oh my sweet summer child" ..? Where did that come from?
@El'endiaStarman ^ I found a really cool feature=)
21:08
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Yeah, I know.
Anonymous
@Pavel It's from Game of Thrones
Even if it was 6-8 weeks literally, that's still too long to wait for voting.
@Mego ninja'ed
@LegionMammal978 I'm not sure but I think I'll join you
@flawr Where are you getting these from?!
21:09
matlab prolly
Looks like Matlab? I think?
Ninja'd
@El'endiaStarman still a somewhat modified ljapunov diagram=)
@Downgoat fwiw: where did the bounty go? did it expire?
Oh noes, is ninja'd making a resurgence?
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ I can do another bounty if you want
21:10
doesn't it award to the highest voted answer/accepted answer by default?
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ yeah
ah okay
@Downgoat if you want, I don't think I need it though
@LegionMammal978 Yes
@LegionMammal978 I don't feel like it ever went away.
Did it ever go away?
Ninja'd
21:10
ninja'ed again
double ninja'ed
Double ninja'd
At this rate, typing "ninja'd" once will get you unconditionally perma-11'd
TRIPLE NINJA
Okay, enough ninja chaining.
@Pavel ok that doesn't count that was like 15 seconds after my message
21:11
Yes
?
It appeared on my screen less than a second before I hit enter
yours was about 10-15 behind mine on my screen <shrug>
@flawr :/ I can't decide whether to bounty your answer or the befunge one to the path generator question
mind if I don't do yours and give a 50 pt bounty to the befunge one?
Anonymous
@orlp That's a good question. I started the meta post that suggested we have more TNB ROs, but I don't have the authority to say "ok let's go ahead and choose them now", so it's up to the mods to start the process of choosing them.
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ What challenge are you talking about?
13
Q: Generate an ascii-art non-intersecting path

Easterly IrkGiven 2 integer inputs representing the size of the field, x and y, output a path through the field. Example output for 5, 4: # # # ### ### # The whole field is 5 by 4, and there is a path made of hashmarks crossing the field. The path should always start in the top left corner, and...

that one, where you stayed up late to write code apparently

@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Why did you have to post such an interesting challenge so damn late?
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Ah sure, I mean it is your bounty:)
21:17
hm, I'll see if I can do both
Well I already have a bunch of rep, so Mr. Holderness will experience a much greater effect of your bounty :)
did one for him, I'll see if I can do another later (idk if I'll remember though)
Anonymous
So based on the comments on the categories post, it looks like we have enough bounties being offered for the answer categories on best-of.
Anonymous
And we have DJ and Zgarb offering to write challenges as rewards for the two challenge categories
Anonymous
So we're all set for rewards :)

@MartinEnder If, for whatever reason, additional bounties are needed (like if someone who volunteered doesn't put up a bounty), let me know and I'll cover any missing ones.
Did Dennis say when voting was going to being? I have been offline for a bit and I seem to have missed the end of nominations.
@Dennis I cannot stay up forever! I'm gonna have to tell my boss tomorrow that you're responsible for my lack of sleep!
@WheatWizard I quote, from about fifteen minutes ago, "Voting will begin shortly".
25 mins ago, by Dennis
Shortly.
not quite quote but pretty close

21:29
Obviously, "shortly" means 6-8 weeks
tl;dr march
29 mins ago, by flawr
@Pavel Probably soon after we get the site design.
sooo around november 1st?
I'm confused. November 1st isn't in 6-8 weeks.
more like nov 6th to nov 8th
21:36
@Pavel it's not a literal 6-8 weeks
the whole point is it could be anytime
I know.
It's not literally november 1st either
I got bored and wrote this out for some reason: Tuojiangosaurus multispinus, Shangshaximiao Formation, Shaximiao Formation, Dashanpu, Da'an District, Zigong, Sichuan Province, Southwest China, People's Republic of China, East Asia, Asia, Eurasian Landmass, Northern Hemisphere, Earth, Solar System, Local Interstellar Cloud, Local Bubble, Orion–Cygnus Arm, Milky Way Galaxy, Local Group, Virgo Supercluster, Laniakea Supercluster, Pisces–Cetus Supercluster Complex, Observable Universe, Universe
and november first is a popular troll date for graduation and now site design, popularized by geobits
(please don't 11)
11?
21:37
@Pavel nah, but even if the 1st wasn't a meme it still would function as a random date
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ The current timer is for April 1
@Pavel Look up "mod abuse eleven" in this chat
@Pavel mod editing is known as 11ing for some reason
Oh yeah, Dennis' profile description.
also known as what VTC said, "mod abuse 11"
21:37
I remember now.
!!!!!!11!!
Actually, if it's singular but ends with 's' both are fine.
:34815157 No, "Dennis'" is the proper way to write it.
1: that didn't ping me for some reason and 2: yeah, figured that and nuked
Dennis's is actually acceptable now.
Oh noes the Starman is here hides
I remembered it's <noun>s's for common nouns only
21:39
What did Starman do to you?
@LegionMammal978 ...y'know it doesn't look good for you if you decide to be noisy only when I'm not around.
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ In my school, we were taught <noun>s'
@El'endiaStarman do you have weird spaces? that message refuses to ping me for some reason
ah, a reply okay
@Pavel He's waiting in the sky.
@VoteToClose I understood that reference
21:40
I did not understand that reference.
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ Yeah, I think I sent my message between the time you deleted it and the time my computer was informed that you deleted it.
david bowie song that starts with "there's a starman waiting in the sky"
@El'endiaStarman ah okay
T'was weird since it showed up as a normal ping, and I was thinking "But I'm sure I made it a direct reply.". Then I refreshed and it made sense.
yeah, same with me
Is David Bowie obscure or am I culturaly inept?
21:41
@Pavel Culturally inept.
I think you're inept, sorry
ninjago'd
I barely knew anything about David Bowie until last year.
Awesome. Good to know.
I'm just not that into pop culture.
21:42
@VoteToClose to quote el'endia, "Ctrl-A Backspace"
@El'endiaStarman Never watched "Labyrinth"?
@VoteToClose I got to watch that last year. :P
Well I haven't heard of it.
Nailed it
sorry for multiple pings VTC
21:43
@EᴀsᴛᴇʀʟʏIʀᴋ make up ur mind plz
I listen to mostly electronic music
F777, Waterflame, TheFatRat
Monstercat
dubstep and metal for me
@Pavel Yas
21:45
@Pavel no https
just http
Right
That explains why it always complains at me.
hm, that link has a https:// for me
@Pavel ah, okay
That's because I pasted it from my bookmarks
well idk what browser you use but chrome won't let me view it at all
I'm USING chrome
21:47
Hi all, I just joined CodeGolf.SE (I'm a regular over on SO and TeX.SE) and posted my first answer here. Did I get everything right, or do you expect any additional info from an answer? I'm open to any feedback. Thanks!
@hbaderts that's all you need!
congrats on using a golfing lang for your first answer
Technically all you need it byte count, language name, and code
Adding an explanation always helps and makes an answer better.
This encourages people who don't know any better to upvote
21:48
.... that's not a good thing
@hbaderts Explanation, attribution, usage - that's a very thorough answer (first answer or not). +1
Because they just see cryptic black magic
that's really not a good thing
But yes, great answer.
@Pavel in fact, that's a problem that's had meta discussions about it
21:49
A Try it online! link would make it better.
I'll make one for you, one sec
Actually no
I just read the challenge
Graphics don't work in TIO
Ok great, thanks all. I tried the Try Online, but couldn't get it to work, as I usually only work with MATLAB
Ah ok, good so it wasn't only me, thanks @Pavel
@Pavel cough matl.suever.net cough cough
TIO>>All other online interpreters
@flawr I suggest going to sleep. There were some unforeseen circumstances and I still have to get home before unlocking the post.
@Pavel sooo TIO appends to all other online interpreters?
21:51
>> is the much greater than sign
Pronounced "greater than greater than"
9
It's an actual thing trust me guys ;-;
I know - despite my silly joke I've seen it used mathematically (just not in a programming context)
90% of the time it refers to bit shifts
@Pavel what about it?
21:55
The one language in the last column
It burns me
It needs to be even
@Pavel yup
4
Screen resolution?
21:57
2880 x 1800
@Pavel well, all you need to do is create 8 more languages and code their interpreters, and bug Dennis a lot
2560 x 1440
hm, wonder why you have most columns than me then
Yeah
Odd
@Dennis Well then, thanks anyway for your work, I imagine setting up the votes is pretty tedious.
21:59
I know that Wat made WSF.
@El'endiaStarman animated
It'll hopefully have a TIO link for when the time capsule challenge is posted
@Dennis Wait, the reason affects the behavior of the lock??
