Background
Many people visit webpages, which require special browsers because of lack of compatibility. So you have to write a script (client sided or server sided), which just prints the name of the browser. Because not everyone has fast internet, the script has to be as short as possible. (Thi...
@LeakyNun feel free to vote on the appropriate consensus then ;) (or, if a challenge which may suffer from this issue is sandboxed or has no answers and you see it, encourage restricting to 2 distinct T/F values)
oh, and if it were for 2 distinct T/F values, Ṡ would work for 1 byte, so that wouldn't help much :P
I've made several sandbox proposals dealing with "customizable" robots and think something involving designing a spaceship (think KSP but simpler) would be fun.
But I'm missing an objective.
I guess to be more specific, sometime I want to make a KOTH that has both a really good "software" and really good "hardware" component to the design. Most KOTHs involve simply writing an AI for something, but I want one in which you get to design the robot itself and therefore get to specify the "hardware" that your AI gets to use.
one may say 1MHz CPU, then another says 999MHz CPU, a third one specifies 9999999999999MHz, the first one edits to 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000MHz, etc.
the same is true for many other hardware aspects such as HDD space, RAM space, CPU freq, network speed, monitor freq etc.
There'd be a couple choices for each element of the design, and there'd be several other restrictions to provide balance. There could be categories such as chassis, propulsion, etc. but then you'd get to choose, say, 2 out of 7 options for weapons.
The most comparable KOTH, as far as I can remember, was the Pokemon-themed KOTH where you got to design both your AI and choose your team/moveset beforehand.
Your kindly neighbour, Doctor Tree, just gave you three magical creatures called Codémon. There's a battle tournament in the nearby town of Colorville. Are you the very best, like no one ever was?

Recently I had the pleasure of writing a Haskell program that could detect if the NegativeLiterals extension was engaged. I came up with the following:
data B=B{u::Integer}
instance Num B where{fromInteger=B;negate _=B 1}
main=print$1==u(-1)
Try it online!
This will print True normally and...
@EriktheOutgolfer I thought that's the consensus for decision-problem that you either 1. consistently output two distinct values or 2. output a truthy value for true and a falsey value for false
@Christopher2EZ4RTZ I think feersum found a way to crack it? iirc he posted to a few challenges within a short window of time (hello world, I think primality?)
@Mr.Xcoder Probably either "Reconstruct an arithmetic sequence" or "Parse a list of signed unary numbers," although I don't consider either of them trivial--solutions were still golfable in interesting ways.

50 rep for an Add++ polyglot
This should be fairly basic, but I'd be interested in seeing it done. The program must satisfy the following four conditions though:
It must be posted to an existing polyglot challenge
It must be a polyglot with at least two other languages
The other two languages ...
@EsolangingFruit Hm. What are you trying to do? The first issue is that neither FD nor OD is a command or operator.
Ahhh, I think I see--are you trying to use D as a variable in a for loop?
Use d instead. FD scans as a single token.
General rule of thumb: lowercase letters all scan separately; uppercase letters clump together in twos. (More accurate explanation available upon request.)
Sequentially Divisible
Sometimes to fall asleep, I'll count as high as I can, whilst skipping numbers that are not square-free. I get a little thrill when I get to skip over several numbers in a row - for example, 48,49,50 are all NOT square-free (48 is divisible by 4=2^2, 49 by 7^2, and 50 by 5...
@MDXF I used to have some code for that but sadly it went offline. As I recall, I was able to simplify the code by having once cube be the top left corner for the front, top and left faces while the diametrically opposite cube was the top left corner for the back, bottom and right faces, but the only thing I can remember is that opposite faces always added to 5.
@EsolangingFruit Right, it does think a is a string. ;) Va is an option. My preferred way, if you just need to input one array of values, is to enter them as separate command-line arguments. The list of all cmdline args is stored in g.
