Hey guys, paste this into your console if you ever need to quit chat: $("html").remove()

Downgoat

you should paste this into your console to foil all evil sheep plan to destroy world: sendPasswords(downgoat)

Stephen S

@Downgoat Make us write a golfed implementation first, there's no point in sending my sick passwords to undefined

MD XF

You should paste this into your console just for fun clear(this)

@StephenS +1 jQuery

Stephen S

@MDXF but that's JavaScript, my thing doesn't use JavaScript, so it doesn't do anything. $ is undefined in JavaScript unless you declare it first

MD XF

@StephenS Try it :P

Stephen S

21:04

@MDXF shhhh

Downgoat

@MDXF clear in console is actually overrided to jsut clear console

MD XF

:I

Stephen S

jQuery wins again, always use jQuery for all of your HTML wants and needs

totallyhuman

have you *tried* jquery?
it has everything

Anyone knows if there is still a MATL-chatroom? Or is it dead and frozen?

Phoenix

It's called MATL CHATL

Prolly frozen

My C room is not yet frozen :D

Phoenix

That's cause you made it yesterday

MD XF

Yeah but I wasn't sure if mods would like it or not

Phoenix

Mods delete, not freeze.

@MDXF hehe. The only userscript which is guaranteed to increase your productivity.

Stewie Griffin

@MDXF :)

Adám

@MDXF A variation on that userscript is one which does the same during off hours. Guaranteed to improve your relationships/family life etc.

@Phoenix Thanks :) It's not frozen :) Last message six days ago...

o0 what did phoenix do to get so many messages starred

Phoenix

21:14

I tricked people into using caret reply's starring feature on my messages

MD XF

@totallyhuman Wrote a bot

Phoenix

(not really, those were already cleared)

Stephen S

Ya know, on that topic, would mods know if you unobtrusively used sock puppets to star your stuff in chat?

MD XF

@StephenS Mods notice literally everything about socks

Stephen S

@MDXF Right, but I'm wondering if they get the data from chat too, obviously there's mod tools and all that for voting irregularities

MD XF

21:17

@StephenS Well stars aren't really private anyway

Anyone can see who starred messages

There's a script

I think there's a post on Mother Meta about that

but I'm too ~~busy~~ lazy to find it

totallyhuman

oh god

"covfefify a string" just beat "tweetable mathematical art"

that's such bs

MD XF

@totallyhuman It did this morning

Or yesterday

caird coinheringaahing

Hello!

totallyhuman

does time matter

MD XF

Yeah, it definitely should not be 12TH ON THE SITE

@MDXF then don't post it here :P

@ConorO'Brien Done, thanks for the idea

caird coinheringaahing

@MDXF excuse me while I post that...

Q: I'm seeing stars! (I can see who starred a message and so can you)

So I was making a chatbot in Ruby for SE chat, and I discovered that I could find out the starrer of a message. I'm pretty sure stars, like votes, are supposed to be anonymous. Although this knowledge would help for cases of star trolls like this. Here's the specific slice of code that do...

MD XF

@Poke Yep :)

caird coinheringaahing

got there eventually

CMC: output my username in the shortest code possible

MD XF

@cairdcoinheringaahing echo boring? (just kidding)

caird coinheringaahing

21:28

@MDXF 4 bytes for you: print('MD XF')

MD XF

@cairdcoinheringaahing That's not 4 bytes

totallyhuman

Text, 22 bytes: caird coinheringaahing

caird coinheringaahing

@MDXF i play by my own rules

user165474

I just realized that the fifth line in my answer is completely useless because I first remove all newlines and then split on newlines... I may or may not have written that code at too late at night... :P

user165474

I don't actually know if I ever use that variable...

totallyhuman

21:30

holy mother of god

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino You've got a lot of unnecessary spaces

totallyhuman

where'd you find the time for that

caird coinheringaahing

uh huh

MD XF

@totallyhuman If you think that took a long time...

user165474

@totallyhuman er... I may be slightly behind on homework... heh

user165474

21:31

@MDXF wtf. literally wtf

caird coinheringaahing

@HyperNeutrino computing homework?

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino And this is why you banned yourself :P

user165474

Yes.

user165474

:P

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino I thought about bountying +500

But then I remembered, I'm selfish about my rep :P

So I golfed a couple hundred bytes off instead

caird coinheringaahing

21:32

@MDXF I feel the same way

user165474

Well I mean all you have to do is write another one of those repbait answers and cap like 10 times (binary ;P)

caird coinheringaahing

I've ony downvoted 2 things on this site

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino Gee, thanks ;P

user165474

@MDXF I do?

MD XF

@cairdcoinheringaahing I DV questions all the time

but only answers if they're total trash

caird coinheringaahing

21:33

(answers) I've downvoted questions

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino I think so? I mean, you've got newlines at all and you've got spaces at the start of lines

user165474

I've DV'd a bunch of questions, but not many answers. I'm not too selfish about my rep (not enough to care about the -1 rep) but I really want my rep to be a multiple of 5. I'm tempted to seek out a terrible answer to downvote because I'm at a multiple of 5 +1 rep right now :P

MD XF

@HyperNeutrino Hahaha

user165474

@MDXF It's called indentation...

user165474

Wait

MD XF

21:34

@HyperNeutrino It's code-golf, right?

user165474

I can use semicolons

user165474

I thought I needed those

user165474

Excuse my stupidity as I go fix that.

MD XF

:P

@Phoenix Did you really?

caird coinheringaahing

@HyperNeutrino I'm on 1605 and never downvoting or accepting until I get off of a x5

@programmer5000 100% accident. I even put a comment on why

Downgoat

22:22

@ASCII-only can you make negative integers have own type in tokenizer call NegativeInteger?

Christopher

mods please don't kill me

Conor O'Brien

that's not something you should be proud of nor state willingly >_>

@Downgoat idk what you're doing, but wouldn't it be easier to just develop a isNumberTokenNegative function for numeric tokens? negative integer tokens seem a little extreme

Downgoat

@ConorO'Brien Well only non-negative numbers can be candidates for unsigned types

Conor O'Brien

ah

Christopher

@ConorO'Brien Not proud but well yeah.

@Dennis uhh can you 11 the number on my serial voting boundaries?

This was inspired by a function I recently added to my language Add++. Therefore I will submit an (very) short answer in Add++ but I won't accept it (it wouldn't be fair) Don't you hate it when you can multiply numbers but not strings? So you should correct that, right? You are to write a func...
