So wait, can X and Y be the same number?

(Ignoring duplicates)

Niko

yes

it can

i think uniformly independent means that?

Redwolf Programs

Yeah, just making sure.

Niko

if you want to edit the question to make it fit the general question guideline, go and do it(~~it reduce my workload~~)

Today's AoCG?

lyxal

That should be @riker posting it

18 hours ago, by Riker

@Bubbler i'll take one of them, 24th should work, if nobody else claims it

alephalpha

@Riker

pxeger

can I post it if Riker doesn't turn up by say 0:45?

lyxal

Seems reasonable

I'd say yes

Q: AoCG2021 Day 24: Is the bus company cheating?

Part of Advent of Code Golf 2021 event. See the linked meta post for details. Related to AoC2020 Day 13, Part 2. Why Bubbler isn't posting this; Why Riker isn't posting this A shuttle bus service runs between the sea port (where you are) to the airport (where you need to go). Each bus has an ID ...

Hey everyone, I've just published a new minimalist golfing language that I'd been working on, Minipyth: github.com/isaacg1/minipyth

A python-based programming language written in Rust? Nice job :P

Are you going to create a byte encoding for it?

isaacg

It's not python-based, it's pyth based

It's intentionally not byte-encoded, I really don't like that sort of thing

It's written in the lowercase alphabet intentionally

emanresu A

Is it TC?

isaacg

I'm pretty sure it is, the w, r and x functions all allow unbounded looping, they should be powerful enough

emanresu A

01:31

Cool

isaacg

Thanks!

emanresu A

I'ma go try do fizzbuzz in this

isaacg

It doesn't have strings yet, so that will be hard

But I'm glad you're excited!

emanresu A

Are you going to setup an online interpreter?

isaacg

Definitely. Are there any standard ways of doing that currently?

emanresu A

01:36

Can't rust be compiled to webassembly?

(Basically JS)

isaacg

It can, might be a good way to do it

emanresu A

Well then you don't need a backend :P

isaacg

Yeah client-side would be nice

Q: Order of an algebraic number

Consider some arbitrary polynomial with integer coefficients, $$a_n x^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1} + \cdots + a_1x + a_0 = 0$$ We'll assume that \$a_n \ne 0\$ and \$a_0 \ne 0\$. The solutions to this polynomial are algebraic numbers. For example, take the polynomial $$x^4 - 10x^2 + 1 = 0$$ We have that \$x...

No, the 101 difference is the association bonus + starting 1 rep

I'm going by codegolf.stackexchange.com/users?tab=Reputation&filter=year

emanresu A

Oh ok

You've almost got 23k lol

(You had a three-month head start so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

caird coinheringaahing

And almost 4 years experience before hand, I had 20k+ rep at the start of the year. Its much harder to get so much rep from scratch than when you already have rep

Redwolf Programs

@emanresuA Wow, congrats!

Sure I can figure out what I've done this year, but I want to lazily be presented with a bunch of stats about my activity instead :P

emanresu A

Do you mean windowsphone.se?

Nvm, thought you meant something else

caird coinheringaahing

Yeah, in the theme of Spotify Wrapped :P

Think Reddit did something similar

emanresu A

@someonewhounderstandsjellychaining How do I get this to output something like [[1,2,3,4,5],[2,3,4,5,6],[3,4,5,6,7], etc]?

caird coinheringaahing

How far do you want it to go?

Try it online! or is this what you want?

emanresu A

That's exactly what I wanted, thanks

@isaacg 2021's shaping up to be a great year for interesting new golflangs!

tjjfvi

Is there a good way to batch/bulk edit answers? I want to edit all of my TypeScript Types answers to get syntax highlighting (```ts -> ```lang-ts)

hyper-neutrino

nope. :/

tjjfvi

:/

I should've spent the 10 seconds to google to find the lang-ts thing before posting 22 TypeScript Types answers

Oh, and editing all of them would spam Active Questions, wouldn't it

att

Similar feeling when I discover a golf that can improve previous answer(s) of mine, but I don't remember exactly which

tjjfvi

I guess I better start AoEMPAoCGAiTST (Advent of Editing My Previous AoCG Answers in TypeScript Types)

If you like Ruby, J-uby is effectively a tacit-enabled superset of it. J-uby has complex, highly varied methods...

so i will start by aplising them

new word: aplise, aplising

Adám

@PyGamer0 It means "to make like APL", no?

PyGamer0

@Adám exactly

Adám

Are "aplify" and "aplifying" synonyms?

PyGamer0

yes

aplise ≡ aplify

Adám

aplification – over time, golfing languages tend to see increased aplification
