5:00 PM
We have a small orchard (20 small fruit trees of different kinds)
 
oh nice
 
@Christopher I worked at a peach/apple orchard during the summer when I was younger, it was so much fun (fresh warm apples are so delicious)
 
@StepHen That is cool. Much nicer to be able to walk outside and just grab a peach, apple, asian pear... ect. and eat it. not much work
 
@Christopher Yup it does sound fun, as long as the birds and bugs and fungi don't eat them first :P
 
I have a fresh fruit marked right outside my doorway, so :p
 
5:02 PM
Market < off the tree
 
@Christopher Of course
 
@StepHen They go crazy XD they eat a lot of our fruit. :_( but we have more than enough to share (on most trees, some have few due to frost)
 
We have also planted some trees two years ago. They will grow and give us fruit soon
 
@Mr.Xcoder Nicee. What kinds?
 
Peach, Prune, Apple, ... (wait, there's more but I am processing slowly)
 
5:04 PM
:P peaches are really good fresh
 
@Christopher This is true
 
cherry
 
@Mr.Xcoder Possibly plums?
 
@StepHen Plums, yeah
 
Are they dwarf trees? (They grow like 10ft not 20-30)
 
5:05 PM
@Mr.Xcoder Wait, prunes are dried plums
 
@Mr.Xcoder you grow dried fruit! Impressive
 
@StepHen Some trees are meant for plums that we will dry and some are for plums to eat
 
@Mr.Xcoder Oh, gotcha
 
Plums are called Prune in our language, and I mistranslated into English
 
@Mr.Xcoder Makes sense
@mınxomaτ hello! Talking about fresh fruit
 
5:06 PM
@Christopher Semi-dwarfs ~15 ft I think
 
At the orchard I worked at they had a giant cherry tree and a giant plum tree and we would get put up on a front-end loader that had a fence around the bucket and pick from there, it was a bit sketchy xD
 
At most
 
@Mr.Xcoder Nice, makes picking much simpler
 
@Christopher Indeed
 
@StepHen A bit :P I like doing stuff like that
 
5:07 PM
Byt they're really small now
 
In washington state we used our tractor to go up high and pick berries over a fence
Mind you it was a bucket, as in for digging (front end loader)
 
Unfortunately a few of them died because of the bad weather
 
@HyperNeutrino What an edit
 
yup :P
 
5:09 PM
@Mr.Xcoder I feel ya. Get ready for late frost killing 1/2 the fruit :P
@HyperNeutrino :DDDDDDDDDD ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ out did me. TY
 
lol np :P
anyway gtg, bye! o/
 
Bye o/
 
I can't be close to them anyway. They're planted near our holiday house.
 
Holiday house? Impressive
 
@Christopher Well, it's more of a shack, but
 
5:11 PM
@Mr.Xcoder Holiday shack? XD
 
@Christopher lol true
 
One sec, loading a map to send a picture
 
I am active on a homework forum in our country, and one question was: "Can you help me?". And nothing else. Dumb people really
 
Red circle is fruit trees
 
Wow, nice
 
5:14 PM
everybody proceed to perform GIS lookup
 
pls don't
 
TIO is back on track
CMC: n ⟶ n^2 + √n
 
Test case?
 
4 -> (square: 16, square root: 2) -> 18
 
@Mr.Xcoder cQuents, 11 bytes, #|1:A^2+R(A once I implemented a mode for #|1: I'll do much better at these
 
5:18 PM
Pyth, 6 bytes: +^Q.5*
 
I thought I had a solution but I haven't implemented square root yet
 
n is an integer
 
,,,, 6 bytes: :2*⇆√+
 
@BusinessCat Have you implemented powers?
 
Yes but it's much much longer like that
 
5:19 PM
@totallyhuman ,,, seems very similar to Pyth when it comes to byte count
 
mm i noticed that too
 
@BusinessCat n^.5, or is it not like that?
 
very weird
 
@totallyhuman Hence Will be outgolfed by Jelly anyway
 
5:21 PM
@StepHen It's a very strange syntax feature that would reduce the bytes a lot more if square root was an operator
As is, 7 bytes: :s¤1ḥ*+
 
How I would want it to look in Cthulhu (I doubt I will be capable of succeeding anyway): +√»²
 
@Mr.Xcoder Where's the Zalgo?
 
Once I implement u as square root, 4 bytes: su„Σ

Engineer ToastN Games of War I recently learned a new twist on playing the classic card game War that does not appear on on the Wikipedia entry.

The reason why it'd be much shorter like that is because a string like “...„ lets you define a list of operators and apply each one to the current TOS, but they have to all be single operators and not require an extra parameter (0.5)

@StepHen Nowhere

They are on phones.
Just unplugged the routers
 
@Christopher Are you on Ethernet then?
 
I'm back
I've been hungry

@StepHen Well yeah ofc

Plain math, 9 bytes: n^0.5+n^2
 
@Mr.Xcoder n^.5+n^2
 
@HyperNeutrino I have nothing to do with this.
 
@TwiNight It's plain math, so no
 
:I don't blame me
 
@Mr.Xcoder omitting the 0 is perfectly fine in plain maths
 
5:45 PM
param($n)$n*$n+[math]::sqrt($n) -- written but not tested

@TwiNight Works in both Mathematica and the Google search bar if you replace n with the input
 
I've just eaten some Fresh Raspberries and Cranberries, as well as some fresh apricots
@LeakyNun That image is quite unclear
 
Oh, fresh raspberries are the best.
 
5:46 PM
@AdmBorkBork Indeed, I love them :)
 
@AdmBorkBork Wineberries don't need any help though, they just grow wild
 
So do raspberries?
 
@AdmBorkBork Not as commonly in my experience/area
 
@Mr.Xcoder I don't think there's a clearer version
 
@StepHen Raspberries are forest fruit :P
 
5:47 PM
that is quite unfortunate
 
Okx
@LeakyNun I can't read it
 
@Mr.Xcoder I know, but they aren't usually wild, at least where I live
 
@Okx it's the flatness of kansas vs pancake
 
@LeakyNun Wasn't there just a Veritasium on this?
 
@AdmBorkBork VSauce
 
5:48 PM
They all blend together in my head
I tend to binge watch them
 
@LeakyNun Oh, I saw there was a new one up but didn't watch it yet, gotta do that later
 
What is the vertical axis of a graph called in English?
 
@Mr.Xcoder In a coordinate plane the y-axis, as opposed to the x-axis
 
y-axis i guess?
 
Oh, just that
 
5:49 PM
urgh ninja'd
 
Without coordinates, it's the vertical axis
 
^^
either works usually
 
We have denominations in our language...
 
@Mr.Xcoder not super relevant, but english.stackexchange.com/q/56472/222219
 
"abscissa" and "ordinate" was what I was looking for. Thanks
 
5:51 PM
@Mr.Xcoder Oh, OK. Just so you know, most people will have to look those up :)
 
They're called "abscisa", "ordonata" here, I guess it's borrowed from either English, French or Latin.
 
for what it's worth, I've not encountered the word abscissa until just now
 
@AdmBorkBork TIL kind of moment?
 
@AdmBorkBork Yup, same. Google says it's from Latin
 
I guess. It says "rarely used" so it's probably archaic
 
5:53 PM
It's highly used in Physics in the 7th grade :)
(here, at least)
 
Not in the US, in my experience, and I was a mathematics major in university
 
@Mr.Xcoder In English you'd just say x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis, no one would know what abscissa is
 
@StepHen Ok, was just curious
 
@Mr.Xcoder Yum
 
@Mr.Xcoder You taught us something :)

@Mr.Xcoder crap cQuents can't do decisions yet
 
@StepHen Neither does Cthulhu. Cthulhu code can't actually be run as of now

@Okx It got ~350 upvotes on a thread on hackernews

but why would you ddos
 
@Mr.Xcoder Yeah

Really, I've capped from the cops thread alone
 
Actually the entire repo is great.
 
@Okx Dunno, but here's the link: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14777167
 
Okx
i found the link
 
@DJMcMayhem You can add a note: Please keep your upvotes for tomorrow :p
 
hehe
Honestly, I just really hope there will be some vim answers (on either thread)
 
6:01 PM
@Okx It might just be the Slashdot effect, rather than an actual DDoS
 
@DJMcMayhem How would there be a Vim answer on the Robbers' if none is on Cops'?
 
I absolutely love using vim in weird ways it was never intended to function

@Mr.Xcoder I mean I hope someone cracks mine so I can patch it and crank up the difficulty
And I hope there are other cops so I can crack some too
But this first one is pretty simple TBH
 
@AdmBorkBork Now we're waiting for the gem answer of Dennis' aren't we?
 
6:03 PM
Sure, I guess.
It's not like people haven't had time to work on this, it's been in the sandbox for like almost four months, lol.
 
I increased the size of the headers on your challenge BTW
They felt too small :)

dude that's too pricey!

well, anyways "duo" and ">$1,000.00" don't go together normally...
 
6:14 PM
@Mr.Xcoder Oh, sure. That was a leftover from when it was in the Sandbox and I just copy-pasted with ### instead of changing them. Thanks!
 
@ckjbgames didn't imply any such thing did I? :p

ok this is awful who puts this over $300...that's too much already isn't it?
 
My phone has 1 GB of RAM and I considered that kinda low :P
 
@BusinessCat Bet your phone doesn't have a 100 gig HDD though :P
 
@DJMcMayhem Yes, it is acceptable
 
100 gig is still low for a computer though
 
I can't say that it does...
 
6:16 PM
@EriktheOutgolfer Thanks for solving it
 
Well, I could say. But I'd be lying.
 
I think some iphones have 128 gigabyte or something?
 
now that's a lot of hdd space for a phone
