@totallyhuman XSS is not really a great vulnerability, it's really easy to exploit

> feature

@TuxCopter sarcasm is not really a great form of humor, it's really easy to miss

You mean sarcasm is a great form of humour, because everyone gets it.

yes thank you for correcting me

Server's back up, it theoretically should stop XSS, but probably won't stop Connor keeping his dragon alive.

XSS is stopped

9:07 PM

@ETHproductions :3 yes

Challenge Your, challenge is to mock what ever the input string is. To do this you take an input, and randomly capitalize letters in it like this: in: Hello World out: HelLo WOrlD The input can be in any case. Then, you put the new string over this image: Explanation See the explanation of this meme here. Examples Examples Remember this is codegol…

YES

uhm

@NewMainPosts borked?

what is

my name?

What is happening with the userscript

9:07 PM

oh yea NMP is weird

its because its deleted

@ConorO'Brien sorry caret-reply messup ^^

s'alright

now to figure out how to change my name

@TuxCopter I fixed the XSS, but it's still currently possible to just create people and leave them as typing.

@ATaco That's not really possible to fix

9:09 PM

I'm sure people are better than to abuse that.

@ATaco I could develop an "activity" sensor that would change the status from typing to not typing after a period of non-typing

@flawr Sorry, then I'm most likely less useful than this question: stackoverflow.com/questions/6766450/…

@Laikoni Thank you very much anyway!

@ConorO'Brien I have a few methods planned, I'll need to do some experimenting.

I think I have one implemented

9:19 PM

It's almost certainly possible to get around it without the use of a captcha l

> I'm bored and these dudes I know are typing.

8

lol

no

stop too far

:P

I'm making blinking text with a setInterval and setting the username, no weird XSS trick here

if you're going to alias, please make it vaguely related to your username -.-

I'm not modifying my username

wait what's the one for stopTyping?

9:27 PM

:OOO Great News: Babel added optional chaining today!!!

...what's optional chaining again?

-1

Q: Print The Input Backward

Just take an input in any way and then print it backward (trailing newlines allowed). For example: Hello World -> dlroW olleH Hi -> iH Yes, it is case sensitive. Shortest code wins

code-golf string

Oh, is it the ?. operator? :D

@ETHproductions yeah

docs?

9:38 PM

Just googled "IT technicians vs. programmers" for the fun of it, and one of the more specific questions Google came up with is "WHAT IS IT developer?" >_<

9:53 PM

@ConorO'Brien claudepache.github.io/es-optional-chaining

Looking at the opening section, I was going to suggest they add a ?[ operator too, but then there would be ambiguous grammar (e.g. a?[b]?[c]:d)

@ETHproductions yeah, they did a?.[b]

Oh really? That's cool

Ah yes, I do see that hidden in the proposal now

@ETHproductions :| shit this wil be porblem for VSL

...you added a ?[ operator to VSL? :P

10:04 PM

not as an operator but due to optionals we you can do a?[0]?1:0

will probably become (a?[0]?)1:0

which wil result in bork

Poll: Favorite metaclass prop.?

> Having . as an operator will make no sense as: 1) . is not an operator

ಠ_ಠ

oh, yeah, sorry I forgot I always do 1 + 1 . 1 + 1 ಠ_ಠ

Other than that, though, what does ? do?

brb getting spec

Ruby uses .singleton_class for the class that has that object as its singleton

10:08 PM

@Downgoat My point being that point 1 is redundant to both the original statement and point 2

@ETHproductions hackmd.io/…

Hmm, ok

So it should obviously be a?([0]?1:0) but the parser will get it wrong?

nearley has rejects so it technically is context-sensitive

so we could actually determine which one to do based on which one is valid

@ETHproductions you are not ready for PHP

Oh don't worry, it's just a quote from Downgoat's blog post

@Downgoat It's slightly annoying that your blog only shows four posts per page, is there a way to fix that?

10:16 PM

@ETHproductions four posts per page? I see like 5 on home page?

Oh my bad, it does

Question: what should a goat literal do

What does a goat literal look like?

Question: Why is -x ** y never parsed as (-x) ** y? In Python it parses as -(x ** y), in JS it errors

You don't get these problems with postfix notation

I'd flag as NAA if I could :P

10:30 PM

You don't get these problems with s-expressions either

This sounds like a question for SE.SE

Aha: softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/q/212593/249824

> You established -x**y == -(x**y). This makes sense, as this is the convention in maths.

@ETHproductions In math it means the former -(x ** y) because you do:

user image

Ah

That makes far more sense than what I was thinking

@ASCII-only see above

we need to do for VSL

vsl:transform> -1 ** 2
{
    (-(1) ** 2)
}

10:49 PM

Poll: I can definitely tell the difference between... strawpoll.me/13122150

Something and nothing

upgoats and downgoats

11:03 PM

upboats and downboats

ppcg and cr

"covfefify a string" needs 5 more upvotes to beat ""Hello, World!""

that sad, the saddest thing in, i think, ever

Which has 30 times more answers

to those 5 people, what is the difference between code-golf and catalog?

11:09 PM

A catalog is a code-golf challenge that does not expect one winner, yet aims to "Catalog" the best answers among each language.

now taco vs taquito?

Tacos and taquitos are completely different

Actually I think "taquito" just means "small taco"

It's also wrapped several times around

Like a really small burrito

"burrito" already means "little donkey"

11:27 PM

Well that escalated quickly

oh noice

whoever's doing the funky typing stuff, <3

@totallyhuman TIL taquito = really small little donkey :P

@totallyhuman just realized that could refer to programming and it still applies

I was doing the Marque.

11:44 PM

also is there an actual user named VoteToReopen?

Okay, now it seems to successfully automatically stop people typing if they're not people.
