I think the question score should be given more priority, downvotes given more weight, and answer count's importance greatly reduced (and maybe even questions with something like 1-2 answers given higher weight)
@BrowncatPrograms I'd rather read good questions with a few good answers than moderately okay questions with a ton of alright answers
Maybe answer count shouldn't be a factor at all, and instead average answer score
And maybe a slight penalty can be given to questions with only one answer
CMQ: When describing the digits that a number system (let's use hexadecimal as an example) uses, should you use a dash or the word "to"? E.g., "hexadecimal uses 0‒9 and a‒f", or "hexadecimal uses 0 to 9 and A to F"

A farmer needs help calculating the least time it will take him to pick his fruit each day.
Challenge
This farmer has X orchards.
Each orchard has Y fruits in it. If the orchard has no fruits, then it will contain the string "none".

Introducing Sandbox Nagger, a stupid userscript hacked up in 15 minutes to nag you to use the Sandbox every few days using an alert(). (It doesn't care if you actually visit the Sandbox, it just nags you every few days (3 by default))
Should it be considered a milestone for Codidact if it's starting to attract users who don't bother checking what the site is about or are just plain weird?
If someone (e.g. Redwolf) is an anti-flagger, does that mean that they'll never get the Deputy or Marshal badges? :P
That does raise an interesting point: in order to settle this debate, we clearly need a moderator to go through Vyxal's flags and mark them as either "helpful" or not :P
I don't have a big issue with r (or similar) being used to affect builtins. Things like s leave a dirty taste in my mouth but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Its when "Vyxal lyxalisgreat, 0 bytes" is an answer that it annoys me
Cat is not something you have to do often, and you're usually going to have just Vyxal, n bytes or Vyxal O, n bytes where you have sensible flags that are absolutely necessary
@cairdcoinheringaahing I'm honestly surprised Vyxal even needs those flags, in a stack based language, the input is implicitly pushed and the top of the stack is implicitly outputted at the end, so it was always going to be trivial
Okay, but look at the flags themselves: a just takes all the input as a single list, and j joins it on newlines when outputting. Both are entirely innocuous imo
It's flags like s (sum), g (print min of stack), and G (print max of stack) that I dislike
I mostly trust the current Vyxal regulars to not abuse flags, but I really don't want newbies coming and abusing flags and ruining its reputation further. It's a good language, and it gets too much flak just because of its flags
