Most people are familiar with Bobby Tables. Goto is pretty well-known as well, so is "I am a human typing with my human hands". Wonder what else

Q: New Room Owners for TNB - Nominations Phase

By community consensus, we will be having more room owners for The Nineteenth Byte. We will be selecting new room owners via the following process: For one week (lasting until UTC midnight on Tuesday, April 13th), nominations will be accepted as answers on this meta post. Votes here don't matter...

hyper-neutrino

oh, that was pretty fast, thanks new meta posts :D

ChartZ Belatedly

@hyper-neutrino Yes, so long as we can go back to using ≤ and ≥ for less than or equal to and the other one

hyper-neutrino

12:07 AM

@ChartZBelatedly nah, just use !(a > b) for a <= b

@ChartZBelatedly i tried my best ;-;

Redwolf Programs

It's in HTML+JS, too

ChartZ Belatedly

12:08 AM

@hyper-neutrino "more or less", when is it different?

hyper-neutrino

@ChartZBelatedly in java, a += b is valid when a is an integer and b is a double, but not a = a + b

Redwolf Programs

Wait no it's 1035 bytes :(

ChartZ Belatedly

@hyper-neutrino Well, that's Java :P

hyper-neutrino

a +=b vs a = a + b

ChartZ Belatedly

@hyper-neutrino God I hate explicit typing ಠ_ಠ

That first example not returning 5.5 is just bad

hyper-neutrino

12:10 AM

in c++ both work like a+=b in java

@ChartZBelatedly well, it's an int, so it can't be 5.5, lol

Original Original Original VI

@hyper-neutrino Because a += b is a = (int) a + b or something like that, not a = a + b

ChartZ Belatedly

@hyper-neutrino Should this be tagged status-completed now?

hyper-neutrino

@OriginalOriginalOriginalVI yeah, it basically force casts it. also btw, i think you'd have to do (int) (a + b)

ChartZ Belatedly

Speaking of that, I've been meaning to edit the newly tagged posts into the FAQ

Original Original Original VI

@hyper-neutrino For some dumb reason, this doesn't work with > in Scala, but >> is the closest I can get.

hyper-neutrino

12:12 AM

@ChartZBelatedly good point, status-completed on the status-completed :P

Original Original Original VI

@hyper-neutrino Oh right, operator precedence

rak1507

@hyper-neutrino you don't need a module for that

hyper-neutrino

@OriginalOriginalOriginalVI i mean, it's cuz >= is tokenized into greater-than-or-equal, but >>= is just the standard (binop)= modifying operator with bitshift

rak1507

tio.run/…

hyper-neutrino

i mean sure, but I don't know how to do that myself xd

rak1507

12:14 AM

fairly straightforward tbh lol at least doing it this hacky way is just patching bytecode

Original Original Original VI

@hyper-neutrino You're right that >= is probably special-cased, but there's nothing special about >>

ChartZ Belatedly

Also, that adds a lot of overhead to any file wanting to use it, rather than just import goto

hyper-neutrino

@OriginalOriginalOriginalVI yeah, hence why >>= works as >> + = rather than being grouped

rak1507

@ChartZBelatedly a small function > several hundred lines of a dependency

you can always stick it in a module

Introducing the fishbone operator

@hyper-neutrino Yeah

I need to file a bug report to make it more consistent so I can go break more stuff :P

hyper-neutrino

12:17 AM

wait you can just create any infix operator you want without even needing to override existing ones? ???

Original Original Original VI

Yeah

ChartZ Belatedly

CMC: What does a "dead fish" (>++>) do in a language of your choice? Try to be creative (rather than say, brainfuck). You can insert it into any (reasonable) piece of code to demonstrate it but you can't "break" the fish

Original Original Original VI

@hyper-neutrino There's no overriding or anything, even + and stuff are proper methods

@ChartZBelatedly Can one define a method or something using the dead fish?

ChartZ Belatedly

Try and go for the default behaviour, if possible

hyper-neutrino

@OriginalOriginalOriginalVI oh I see, that's cool

Wezl

12:18 AM

@ChartZBelatedly looks up the variable >++>, obviously :P

rak1507

in APL it is a train that errors as > does not have a monadic form

Original Original Original VI

rak1507

yep

Wezl

> GreaterThan > 🔶 with TAO; monad: is-strictly-negative/is-visible

Original Original Original VI

Ah, cool

hyper-neutrino

12:21 AM

in jelly as a monadic chain, it seems to check whether or not a number is positive :P

ChartZ Belatedly

Jelly (monadic) would be ((n > n) + n) + n) > n, which is the same as 2n > n

hyper-neutrino

the first > always results in 0 because a number can't be greater than itself, so the two plusses end up making it (0 + a) + a or 2a, so the return value is 2a > a which is just whether or not a is positive

i have been ninja'd

rak1507

neat

ChartZ Belatedly

Jelly (dyadic) would be (x > y) + (x + y) > y

Original Original Original VI

Those chaining rules are so complicated

ChartZ Belatedly

12:23 AM

Kinda :P

hyper-neutrino

oh right, i forgot about the unique 2,2,2-chaining rules at the beginning of dyadic chains

ChartZ Belatedly

Monadic rules are just "compose the dyads"

Dyadic chains are weird tho :P

hyper-neutrino

i'd say the chaining rules are what make jelly hard and also what make it so efficient because clever manipulation of link order and golfy usage of quicks lets you cut out a lot of stuff other languages need bytes to do with the implicit rules

that, or you have a built-in or three that just solve the challenge

ChartZ Belatedly

@hyper-neutrino Dennis was scarily good at designing the chaining rules to be pretty close to optimal, especially in monadic chains

@Lyxal No offense, but you act a little immature sometimes. That'd probably change if you became an RO, but still

ChartZ Belatedly

(doesn't apply to you, but it reminded me to bring this up)

One potential con for you is that you have <10k total network rep, meaning that you are unable to handle any flags raised in the room — ChartZ Belatedly 10 mins ago

Lyxal

@OriginalOriginalOriginalVI good I like this feedback

give me more

ChartZ Belatedly

Note that ROs can't handle flags if they don't have 10k+ network rep, which could potentially be a problem

hyper-neutrino

oh yeah not that it really matters but you do have to have 100 reputation otherwise i can't make you a room owner. just a technicality xD

Original Original Original VI

Not a big deal, but your timezone means you're not here when a lot of spam is posted (read: when I'm awake)

hyper-neutrino

it's probably best that we don't make it even similar to NSP, but i mean, they post in significantly different formats, lol, so it's not like they'd be confused with each other too easily

@ChartZBelatedly thanks, i spent like 30 seconds in paint3d with the pixel pen

ChartZ Belatedly

OTOH, it's much more "crisp" than NSP, so it looks newer :P

hyper-neutrino

that's probably cuz i shrunk it from 128x128 to 16x16 and cleaned up the background to be solid white and then expanded it to 256x256 without any blurring or anything just to make it visible in chat :P

Lyxal

@ChartZBelatedly but that's the whole point of the challenge. Surely there's some algorithm that exists that does it

ChartZ Belatedly

@Lyxal Aside from what I already said, I'm not aware of one

I did some deep research into these, I couldn't find any papers on a solid algorithm for the reverse, aside from taking a and b, converting them to quote notation (0'a and 0'b) and dividing them, per the long division algorithm stated in the Wiki article

Quote notation isn't a very widespread concept :P

Redwolf Programs

The answer below mine put no effort in and got +14 :(

They had more space wasted on variable names and whitespace than I had actual code :p

Also how did I get another downvote :/

It's on a question that I actually like, too

ChartZ Belatedly

Oh that's fun. I just found a mistake in the quote notation wiki

Here, it says "To negate, complement each digit, and then add 1.". What it should say is "To negate, complement each digit, and then add 1 to the final digit"

For example, 6'7.2 = 8/15. By their method, -8/15 = 3'3.7. However, 3'3.7 = 11/30. Instead, 3'2.8 = -8/15

@ChartZBelatedly why didn't you tell us you published a jelly tutorial?

@Lyxal Because I haven't published it yet, it's still in progress :P

pxeger

Did you know you can change the parent site associated with your chat user? Is this new?

Deadcode

@ChartZBelatedly Thanks! It's going to be a long haul to 10k though.

ChartZ Belatedly

@pxeger Nope, been around for years

Lyxal

@RedwolfPrograms just 40 rep left

Redwolf Programs

Don't get your voting reversed, I saw those three upvotes :p

Lyxal

12:44 PM

I only do 3 at a time

I'm not that stupid

Redwolf Programs

Also, (nobody snipe me), can I get an upvote on this? I want to make encode a synonym of encoding

Thanks!

ChartZ Belatedly

@RedwolfPrograms Other way around maybe?

Lyxal

@RedwolfPrograms just two votes away from 10k

So close

ChartZ Belatedly

encoding is on 8 questions, encode is on 21

Redwolf Programs

I think encoding is a better name, though

pxeger

12:47 PM

@RedwolfPrograms agreed

Redwolf Programs

Having the tag be a verb is kind of weird

ChartZ Belatedly

There's also decode

Lyxal

@RedwolfPrograms congratulations on the 10k!!!

👏👏👏

pxeger

well in that case it probably should be encode

Redwolf Programs

Yay! Now I can see deleted posts!

Deadcode

12:48 PM

Wow, yeah, congrats @RedwolfPrograms!

ChartZ Belatedly

Enjoy the Sandbox :P

Lyxal

Welcome to the club!

@RedwolfPrograms let me get the guacamole question link for you

*avacado

ChartZ Belatedly

You actually have a link to that? Why?

Lyxal

codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/60206/…

I had to search for it

ChartZ Belatedly

@RedwolfPrograms Browse through the memes at your heart's content :P

pxeger

12:49 PM

context for us <10k plebians?

Lyxal

@RedwolfPrograms now you can see the cringe I've deleted over time too

ChartZ Belatedly

Lyxal

I just really hope SE doesn't screw this all up

pxeger

lol what

ChartZ Belatedly

It became a meme back in 2015/2016

I gotta go to school now, be back on in about half an hour

Lyxal

Okay

I'm off to bed.

ChartZ Belatedly

Ok, should encode, encoding and decode be made synonyms of each other?

Which should stay?

Lyxal

I mostly stayed up to see redwolf get 10k

@ChartZBelatedly I can suggest both as synonyms of encoding, if you want

At least, when SE realizes I have a tag score of 6 and not (some number below 5)

Just save one for me so I can get synonymizer :p

pxeger

I wish to speak to the manager. Why is it snowing at a time that personally inconveniences me?

ChartZ Belatedly

I have a score of 15 in decode, but only 1 in encode and zero in encoding :/

@pxeger Because the UK has stupid weather

Ugh, status-declined
