3:01 AM

I guess one 5-hour day of work at minimum wage would actually give me that much money back. I'm in then (probably)

Mendeleev

@ETHproductions What's your approximate location?

like country/state

Downgoat

@Mendeleev I think new york

ETHproductions

I've never thought about it in terms of hours of work per year, all domains under $100 suddenly look pretty cheap

@Downgoat Right. Wait how'd you know?

Mendeleev

@eth but living expenses

Downgoat

chat.stackexchange.com/…

ETHproductions

3:03 AM

Ah :P

@Mendeleev A) I'm not living on my own yet, B) I didn't choose to live here

Mendeleev

Aight

ETHproductions

I'm not actually in NYC, if that's what you're thinking, I'm quite a ways further north

Mendeleev

im not

I know NY state is big

Downgoat

Question: how to chose a PSU?

ETHproductions

Sorry, I've been raised to believe everyone who does not live in upstate NY thinks that New York refers to NYC :P

Downgoat

3:06 AM

@ETHproductions pretty sure entire east cost is NYC except florida :P

ETHproductions

@Downgoat As in Penn State University vs. Portland State University?

power supply unit

:P

@Downgoat EVGA 430W

@Downgoat cheap PSU is most likely part to explode

Not joking, either

Mendeleev

3:07 AM

would fit your needs, it's well reviewed, inexpensive, I've used mine for >2 years

@Downgoat pcpartpicker.com/product/HvTmP6/evga-power-supply-100w10430kr

Downgoat

ok does this look good: pcpartpicker.com/list/w4tfgL

Mendeleev

I disagree on the HDD thing...

Phoenix

Pretty much yeah

Mendeleev

you don't need a 1070. You don't need a Z chipset board (only for overclocking).

Phoenix

Are you sure you don't already have a monitor though

Mendeleev

3:09 AM

Everything else looks good I guess

Again

Z chipset board is waste of money if you have a non-K CPU

Nothing else is added over h series

Downgoat

@Mendeleev I have a 2560x1440 monitor though

Phoenix

If he's going to dual boot Windows 1070 could be good

Mendeleev

@Downgoat Intel HD Graphics can power a 1440p monitor

even a 4K one

just not fast

Downgoat

yea but i want to play game on 4k monitor :(

Mendeleev

also goat if you are going to use linux then you would want to get 900 series card

1000 series support is bad still

Downgoat

3:10 AM

oh, I'm going to use windows + mac no way using linux

Mendeleev

whyyyyyy

Phoenix

If that's your use case, 1070 is good

Mendeleev

come to the ~~dark~~ good side

Downgoat

once ubuntu hires a decent UI/UX designer I will

ASCII-only

@Downgoat Don't use Ubuntu

Also it's Canonical

Mendeleev

3:12 AM

@Downgoat Don't use Ubuntu

Also use Arc theme

ASCII-only

Use Mint (Ubuntu derivative)/Lubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu/OpenSUSE

Mendeleev

It's really really really really really really really really nice

@ASCII-only no mint pls

ASCII-only

Or use Ubuntu + docky + no start menu thing + adapta + paper

Mendeleev

ubuntu gnome is cool...

Downgoat

@ASCII-only this message rigt here is why I don't use linux :P

@Mendeleev do i need to buy screws or anything or do the parts come with them?

I have cable ties

Mendeleev

3:13 AM

no

ASCII-only

@Downgoat ???

Phoenix

That's the worst reason not to use Linux

Mendeleev

MAKE SURE TO PUT IN STANDOFFS. You do NOT want to short your mobo .Also get a motherboard with a B250 or H2xx chipset

Downgoat

what are standoffs

Mendeleev

You don't need Z270 because you have a non-K CPU

Downgoat

3:14 AM

ok

Phoenix

@Downgoat you need a screw driver, an anti static strap, and that's it.

Downgoat

I'm using 7th gen tho does b250/H2XX support that?

Mendeleev

@Downgoat H2XX is a series, something like H270

Phoenix

Hacksaw optional unless you're an idiot like me.

Mendeleev

Yes, all x2xx chipsets support Kabylake

You don't even need antistatic.

Downgoat

3:15 AM

@Mendeleev how's this: pcpartpicker.com/product/rKx9TW/…

Mendeleev

@Downgoat Wat

Downgoat

@Mendeleev yes, that message was for wat :P

Phoenix

Very good

Mendeleev

That should be fine, but look up the hackintosh thing

Downgoat

(it is motherboard)

Mendeleev

3:16 AM

we couldn't tell

MD XF

Is this clear enough?

Mendeleev

no, its opaque

Downgoat

oh cool, motherboard is good choice for hackintosh :D

MD XF

@Mendeleev Good enough

Mendeleev

@Downgoat Wait, that message was for wat?

Please say it

Downgoat

3:18 AM

@Mendeleev yes

@Mendeleev it

Mendeleev

@Downgoat Who's on first?

Downgoat

?

Mendeleev

Abbott & Costello Who's On First

►

ETHproductions

You... you don't... know?

Downgoat

Question: is $40 for +.4GHz worth it?

Mendeleev

3:18 AM

@Downgoat no

@ETHproductions I don't think he knows who's on first

ASCII-only

@MDXF um ok so looks like no spaces between ook commands

ETHproductions

I don't remember much of the skit but I remember I loved it at the time (this was like 7 years ago)

MD XF

@ASCII-only What do you mean

Mendeleev

Who's on first, What's on second, I don't know is on third...

Wait, who's on first?

ETHproductions

Ah right

Mendeleev

3:20 AM

Yes

ASCII-only

@MDXF It looks like you don't allow spaces between ook commands

Mendeleev

I linked a youtube of it

MD XF

@ASCII-only When?

Downgoat

@Mendeleev XD

ASCII-only

@MDXF

TrivialBrainfuckSubstitution("Ook. Ook?", "Ook? Ook.", "Ook. Ook.", "Ook! Ook!", "Ook! Ook.", "Ook. Ook!", "Ook! Ook?", "Ook? Ook!")

You have no spaces before or after

Mendeleev

3:22 AM

@Downgoat Watch the whole thing, it's worth it

MD XF

@ASCII-only So? this interpreter makes it work

I'm a bit confused about what you're saying

ASCII-only

@MDXF Yeah but the arguments you pass as substitutions mean the resulting interpreter is allowed to break if there are spaces between right?

MD XF

There don't need to be spaces before or after, just in the middle

@ASCII-only Hm, added rule

Your interpreter should not require any spaces between command substitutions. However, it should not break if they are present.

ASCII-only

@MDXF So uh you mean unrecognized commands are skipped like in normal brainfuck?

MD XF

@ASCII-only Yep

Mendeleev

3:25 AM

Technically x86 assembler is not turing complete

MD XF

@ASCII-only I'll clarify in the rule

@ASCII-only Clalrified

ASCII-only

Charcoal really needs string slice sometime :P

Mendeleev

charcoal needs to be burnt

(Idea: Write the charcoal interpreter onto a CD ;))

MD XF

@ASCII-only is it good now?

ASCII-only

@MDXF Yeah should be fine

MD XF

3:29 AM

Cool

I'll wait for some others to review it

ASCII-only

@Mendeleev >_> you can do that with anything though also it's a waste of storage

Mendeleev

@ASCII-only It's a joke about burning it ffs

ASCII-only

@Mendeleev ik but it's such a terrible joke :P

Mendeleev

You could say

It needs to be burned

MD XF

Omg just stop

Mendeleev

3:31 AM

That joke would get me fired

MD XF

@Mendeleev stop

Mendeleev

@MDXF I don't want to stop, I'm on fire!

Downgoat

@Mendeleev are all the websites on PCPartPicker reliable websites

Mendeleev

@Downgoat Should be

MD XF

@Mendeleev OMG I am going to block you

Mendeleev

3:32 AM

You can restrict website choices

@MDXF Over a few puns?

MD XF

If a few = ~20 then yup

Mendeleev

I'm still gonna do it, I'm a punk

I guess blocking would be a suitable punishment

MD XF

-_-

Mendeleev

I bet you want to punch me right now

Just straight up punt me out of the room

ok these are really weak

ETHproductions

You know, once you succeed in getting him to block you you won't be able to taunt him any more...

Mendeleev

3:35 AM

riiight...

I'll stop

(also you can't block people on SE chat, I'm pretty sure)

Downgoat

@Mendeleev you can ignore which is just about the same

Mendeleev

how? tell me

oic nm

MD XF

Anyone here experienced in Brainf**k?

ETHproductions

I have slight experience, why?

MD XF

@ETHproductions I'm writing a challenge but as I've never used bf (except for quines and the polyglot challenge) idk if it's clear enough

Downgoat

3:37 AM

Question: what is cherry mx

Riker

at this point these answers have to be harder to test than write

70+ langs to test

MD XF

@Riker Completely accurate

@Riker You know you can test them all in one, right?

Riker

yes but still

takes forever for me

i.e. >1 min

MD XF

Yeah

btw you should add a language

In the next, say, 5 minutes :P

Riker

I have before I think

maybe not this one

MD XF

3:38 AM

I'm waiting to add 3 or 4 langs

Riker

I think it was the other one, the 2^n one

ETHproductions

@MDXF I'd suggest using "BF" some of the time instead of typing out "Brainf**k" every single time :P

MD XF

@ETHproductions If that's all then I'll probably post it :P

Mendeleev

Hey guys

MD XF

Mendeleave

Downgoat

3:39 AM

TIL I have never used mechanical keyboard, only membrane keyboard

Mendeleev

In C++ would a+++i evaluate as a + ++i or a++ + i

ETHproductions

the latter I'm 99% sure

Mendeleev

@Downgoat go to your local computer store and try it out

i used to use a model m before my mom threw it away :(

Downgoat

I use a mac keyboard (chiclet) and have gotten pretty used to it though so idk if I shuold stay with chiclet

Mendeleev

I also do

MD XF

3:40 AM

@Mendeleev there might be something here to help you

Downgoat

I have a ~110WPM typing speed on this

Mendeleev

I use an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard (A1314) and my Dell E6410's keyboard which is really nice

MD XF

@Downgoat hee hee I have 130 on my Dell laptop keyboard

Mendeleev

it's amazing that a 7 year old laptp can work so well still

ETHproductions

@MDXF I think you could simplify the task description to something along the lines of "given eight strings representing the eight substitutions, and a program..."

Mendeleev

3:42 AM

I honestly want to use a macbook, mac pro, and iphone for a month to see what the experience is like

Downgoat

Microsoft surface keyboard looks a lot like the apple one

Mendeleev

and apple watch of course

ETHproductions

@Mendeleev 7? I had a Compaq from 1999 that I used daily until it finally died in 2013 :P

Downgoat

@Mendeleev would rate 7/10 it's in incredibly scratchable device

Mendeleev

@ETHproductions Right, but this runs better than many new laptops ($300 ones :P)

@Downgoat my friend Jarrod won one at a raffle the spoiled bastard

Downgoat

3:43 AM

wtf, damn

Mendeleev

ok "friend"

Downgoat

lol

Mendeleev

he's the most pretentious annoying person you will ever meet and I avoid talkg to him

ETHproductions

@Mendeleev Ah OK. My currently laptop (idk how old it is) can run with the best of 'em and I somehow managed to acquire it for only $180

Mendeleev

but he does some interesting things and gives me free stuff so I don't throw him under the bus too much

user165474

3:45 AM

@ATaco feature-request: add more spacing below the "... is typing" text; it looks kind of awkward right now

ETHproductions

I haven't yet found one thing I don't like about this laptop, except its lack of a way to scroll

Mendeleev

his parents are buying him a late 2016 mbp if he finishes algebra 1 in 10th grade

Downgoat

@Mendeleev .___________________________.

ETHproductions

@HyperNeutrino I keep reading "Mendeleev is crying." Maybe I should go to bed sometime soon :P

Downgoat

not to be mean, but how do you not complete algebra 1 in 10th grade :|

Mendeleev

3:46 AM

I'm in 9th grade, doing pre-caclculus, it's my second math course this year, and my parents reluctantly agreed to replace my iPhone 4S with a replacement phone, but only if I finish pre calculus

@Downgoat It's an online math system he's at like 65%

still possible to finish them

user165474

user165474

I was listening to music at a slightly unsafe volume but it was fine until I got a ping sounds D: I need to mute this tab

user165474

3:47 AM

@ETHproductions no worries I was being kinda reckless there :P

Mendeleev

By the way: @HyperNeutrino how did the test go?

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino You're back!

user165474

Test?

user165474

@MDXF :D yes

Mendeleev

exam whatever

sorry

terminology things

MD XF

3:48 AM

@HyperNeutrino Did you see I gained 2.5k rep while you were away? :P

ETHproductions

@Downgoat I have to get up in 6.5 hours to get ready for class, so I don't think coffee will be as beneficial

user165474

@MDXF that much D: well rip

Downgoat

ono I realized porblem: If I do both windows/mac I will need two different keyboard D:

Mendeleev

why are most people here under 17

user165474

ehh I didn't have an exam either; did I misword something?

Mendeleev

3:49 AM

I thought you suspended yourself to study?

ETHproductions

@Mendeleev I am not under 17 hint hint

Mendeleev

Downgoat

@Mendeleev I am 74 excuse me

ETHproductions

@Downgoat literally laughed out loud at this xD

user165474

3:49 AM

@Mendeleev not quite to study, more so to finish schoolwork

MD XF

@ETHproductions Is this better? and @ASCII-only is it still clear?

Downgoat

@Mendeleev i should not need to change who I am to conform to your expectations 0/10 discrimination

Mendeleev

@HyperNeutrino Oh, I see. Guess I conflated you with Kenny Lau

MD XF

@ETHproductions Np, I'll just post it in the morning

user165474

I can see why you said you may need to suspend yourself to finish up work :P @MDXF

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino Pretty much. At least I stopped repcapping every day

user165474

Ah I see :P

user165474

3:52 AM

How many bounties did you get?

ETHproductions

@MDXF So that's why I've been repcapping every day

user165474

2.5k / 7 > 200

MD XF

@ETHproductions What do you mean?

ETHproductions

You stopped repcapping every day, so I started

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino I was guesstimating when I said 2.5k

ETHproductions

3:52 AM

:P

user165474

:P

MD XF

It's probably more around 2k, or 1.5k tbh

Still too much :P

user165474

yes :P

MD XF

@ETHproductions No, probably 'cause I write good challenges :P

Idk how I stopped capping every day

I didn't do anything different AFAIK

except post challenges I guess

ETHproductions

@MDXF And I write good answers*

*answers may or may not be referring to this alone

user165474

3:54 AM

wait maybe posting challenges causes less rep ?

user165474

well i mean an upvote is worth half

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino No I got more rep when posting challenges

because I'd post four or five answers to my own challenges :P

Plus I've found where I want to spend most of my time

@Mendeleev Your challenges: compare two numbers My challenges: Fill the screen with random pixels :P

@HyperNeutrino Haha yeah that's my favorite part

Oh but I'm probably going to be inactive starting June 25th

I'm getting promoted :P

Downgoat

@MDXF typing slower won't help if I don't know how to spell word

Jelly, 3 bytes: gÆd

ETHproductions

Wait... uh... what? How does that work?

user165474

(left, right) -> GCD -> divisor count

ETHproductions

Is it gcd(left,divisorcount(right))?

Or no, it must be divisorcount(gcd(left,right))

user165474

gÆd  Main link, left argument x, right argument y
 Æd  Divisor count of

Why doesn't the g link up with the Æd automatically though?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ As with most Jelly things, I don't know exactly why it works.

ETHproductions

ha, alright

I've gtg now, talk to y'all later

@HyperNeutrino How do you get that explanation?

@Mendeleev As in how is it generated?

Mendeleev

Yes

Because I already have an SSD and, in case of the desktop computer, more HHDs than I'd like to admit.

A 2 TB HDD wouldn't really save me space at this point, as the HDDs are 4 TB or 5 TB large.

Oh, it makes sense in that sense. I thought you meant they were bad drives somehow.

Not bad, but both computers can fit an SSD plus the HDDs I need, so a hybrid doesn't really make sense.
