@NathanMerrill But then I'd have to be really careful to make sure that I pick numbers such that I don't provide enough memory to hold the entire thing at once, but enough memory to run the program. Getting it wrong means the challenge is either trivial or impossible, and I don't want to try that.
It's also weird since I don't really like having a 400 character string defined on one line, but manually spacing them out seems like too much work for too little benefit
Idk, it's just that everything I can think of feels weird

I don't know why that got starred, but I guess I don't mind either
A single 05AB1E char can't fit in a single 8-bit byte (259 commands I think), whereas BF only has 8 commands, so 3 bits per char, 2.5 BF commands per byte.
I'm not suggesting we change the judging rules but why do we incorrectly use the language of bytes, and not chars?
@Downgoat your Cheddar interpreter is a bit broken:

FYI: The bounties ad image no longer displays. I tried changing it from // to https:// (I edited it, and it said it needs to be changed to that), but that didn't fix it.
There's a question marked as Duplicate in the CV review queue, and I kinda agree, but not quite enough to hammer it myself, but I don't want to not vote on it...
@TuxCopter If someone can access my computer, and can figure out the main user password (very long), I have root login disabled and ssh set to key only, and I always lock it when I leave.

I do plan on eventually taking DLosc's comment into consideration but do any of you have any other thoughts about this challenge that I have in the sandbox?

I'm looking for some help in a challenge to set some of my coders (for a charity challenge). I want to run a C# console app for 60 seconds and then terminate.
The coders need to have a way of writing their code so that it can execute independently of the "timer", so threaded possibly?

@Mendeleev my argument is, all of those attributes you listed contribute to your enjoyment and efficiency on that system. I quite enjoy windows, and we don't need to start a holy war about operating systems.
I think that Linux is a better suited for software development than Windows, which is unreliable, uncustomizable and lacks a proper text mode ui. But of course it depends on what you are used to.
Moles with SOCKS?!

@ConorO'Brien About customization: To change the UI on Linux, you can just install a different desktop environment like Gnome, Xface or KDE (all of them have different themes). In Windows, you can't really change the UI.
I know many people who argue about Windows looking better than Mac Os and vice versa. Then I just think: if you'd use Linux, you could choose whatever you want. It is even possible to make Linux UI to replicate Windows or Apple.
no, he's saying that the aesthetic argument is bad
I have linux on my computer but I don't use it. it was a real pain to get working because the broadcom chip isn't open source so I needed to install that, but I couldn't connect to the internet because no ethernet port
