The Nineteenth Byte

It's only the identity on functions. You can't do ($) "test" since strings are not functions.

Well, yeah, fair enough

HaskellMC: Bubble sort

It's also has special unboxing properties. But let's not talk about unboxing.

Do you mean destructuring or something entirely different?

9:02 AM

It's actually not possible to write ($) without compiler hook ins.

@emanresuA Unboxing is to do with pointers and other low level gubbins

does haskell have low level stuff?

It does, but it's black magic.

Related: hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring-0.11.3.0/docs/…

laziness + no side effects makes anything low level very nasty

@WheatWizard I knew you were going to link that

~~time to create a worse version~~

9:08 AM

give me two minutes

There are some nice things about low level Haskell stuff. But it's its own skill and it's pretty separate from the rest of the language.

@PyGamer0 ato.pxeger.com/…

That's kind of slow even for a bubble sort.

@pxeger It also doesn't work: Try [1,2,4,3]

oops

Fix: ato.pxeger.com/…

@emanresuA how do i splice arrays in js like python?

nvm got it

Do you mean slice?

def bubbleSort(toSort):
  for i in range(len(toSort)):
    for i1 in range(len(toSort)-1):
      if toSort[i1] > toSort[i1+1]:
        temp = toSort[i1]
        toSort[i1] = toSort[i1+1]
        toSort[i1+1] = temp
  return toSort

@emanresuA how to prepend to stuff

9:41 AM

:

in js

def b(l):
 for _ in range(len(l)):
  l=f(l)
 return l

^ CMQ: how to golf that?

@PyGamer0 change _ to i

how will that help?

reduces it by a whole 0 bytes

You don't need a newline after the for header.

9:50 AM

yeah

can i write it as a one liner

def b(l):
  for _ in l:l=f(l)
  return l

something like: repeat(f,range(len(l)),l)

python: golfed but readable bubble sort in 180 bytes

i guess the time complexity is still O(n²)....

Why are there just 3 spaces out of nowhere on the second line?

And the same on the seventh?

to make it align with the second return

Oh. I don't think that works.

9:55 AM

?

It just looks weird.

it just for readability

@WheatWizard oh lol

I think it makes it less readable.

173 without spaces: ato.pxeger.com/…

(There's still an extra space)

Lightly golfed for 136 bytes: ato.pxeger.com/…

10:07 AM

i wonder if b can be written as a lambda

CMQ: Ever used %-formatting and f-strings at the same time?

no

@allxy yes, for a code.golf problem

I think it was the overlapping rectangles one

But I can't tell you what it is

The title says it all—this is yet another regression with the unannounced, untested, unwanted launch of the redesigned top navigation bar. Moderators have a diamond icon in their top bar, which is ordinarily the same color as the other icons (inbox, achievements, etc.), but is supposed to light u...

thank you SE, very cool

ophact

We officially have no bountied questions.

hey wait if stacks is open source, that means we could change it ourselves right? (assuming merged PRs, but with enough people showing interest in the PRs, SE might notice and merge)

they have multiple labels on a PR that mean the same thing

and have they not heard of draft PRs?

12:07 PM

hai!

eggs

indeed.

Is do-not-merge actually a synonym of work-in-progress?

They don't seem like the same thing.

I am going to work on that userscript

work-in-progress implies do-not-merge

12:09 PM

hol plees

so yes, SE has made them synonyms

CMQ: Can somebody with a cached version of the pre-icon-color-change site use a color picker on the icons?

from meta.stackexchange.com/a/377579/391137

the icons are roughly #a1a6ae

or #a6aab2

depending on where you choose the colour from

spoicy

hold please

I took my own screenshot from the web archive

@Ginger *holds*

oh hey it's raining

12:22 PM

fun

I wasn't allowed to write /shrug as the course of action

Because it's "unprofessional" and "could lose marks"

So why not make it professional to react to things with /shrug? /s

"hey boss the printer broke" "/shrug"

"and the users don't like the new site design either" "/shrug"

alright, step 1 of 2 complete

I've gotten it to fix the color, now I just have to do the notifications

hmm

can somebody with a cached version put it in a gist?

Don't got one of that though

how did they look originally?

(both of them)

Well the rep count I've linked above

Let me see if I have a screenshot of notification count

12:31 PM

did the search button's color also change?

I don't know

But hopefully these points of data make a beautiful line for you

And that you'll be out of beta and releasing on time

right

can somebody upvote a post of mine? I need to test the rep notifications

(and the inbox ones too if you can)

@Ginger ping ping here's a thing.

@Ginger hang on

I have committed science™ (for the people who are still alive)

@Ginger go to CGCC

whoops

Found this among my screenshots

Nice.

Nice.

why no jelly answer or vyxal answer to this?

because nobody wanted to write one?

because I regexn't

@Razetime you're razetime.

12:45 PM

@Razetime can jelly do ~~regex~~ replace?

@lyxal pssst i got an idea: triadic atoms are forced dyadic atoms with the accumulator as an extra argument

triadic rules are just dyadic rules

@hyper-neutrino: Did you get my ping in the Sandbox? I can't recall whether replying to an old chat-message generates a ping..

It used to be the icon under it would become dark green.

hmmmmmmmmm

that is more tricky

but I can do it

hold plees

12:54 PM

And there was a black border around the green rectangle.

ah

here:

Bgil Midol

nice, but can you move the +20 to the right a little?

@lyxal lol what does this mean

And make it a tiny bit rounder.

i might write a husk

1:01 PM

ok

@Razetime it's something I don't get to say very often.

alright

@Ginger The border was not perfectly black but the the same color as the bar.

oh

i love random redesigns

I think the color is still wrong for the border

also the border vanished when you hovered

Given a list of the integers from \$1\$ to some \$n\$, give the minimum number of adjacent swaps required to put the list in ascending order.

@PyGamer0 ah now i see why

why?

because it needs printing to stdout midway through the process

pretty sure jelly can do that

1:10 PM

and the escaping is quite difficult

my fricking bf interpreter is not working

using that is difficult. I think nick kennedy would be up to it if he wanted to

alright

I think I have patched the repcounter

now, can someone mention me?

@PyGamer0 well it is definitely a [] problem if it runs forever

@hyper-neutrino wait the title is agave

the rest of the body looks like APL386

yeah it is

although you gotta admit

@ophact is that yea or nay, i'm not sure

^ looks nice

but does it have the APL

1:17 PM

no :(

thats why i use iosevka

okay

I think I've done it

you know you're a programmer when you get concerned when your quotes don't auto-close

reason: this happened to me

Gross, auto-closing quotes are wack :p

@RadvylfPrograms you speak with the inelegance of a JS programmer

Auto-closing quotes always just mess stuff up for me

I find auto-closing quotes / parens to be incredibly annoying.

1:48 PM

why

Because it's really not tough to hit " twice instead of once, and autoclosing makes it rather hard to just type one of them.

@WheatWizard yeah

this reminds me of something

It just inserts stuff I didn't type into the program.

1:50 PM

And if you've got a big ugly mess of nested brackets, changing one or two is really hard with auto-closing brackets

@WheatWizard it's simple: ", , \B

@RadvylfPrograms you can't mess it up in the first place

Jul 8, 2021 at 6:06, by PyGamer0

our teacher is now teaching; "In the latest version of Java, you write a opening curly brace and press enter, it will automatically put the closing curly brace"

@WheatWizard i hate it too

i disable it everywhere

@PyGamer0 i support this

Java and intellij are merging into one entity.

@RadvylfPrograms how can you mess up exactly 1 bracket when everything always auto closes

1:51 PM

@WheatWizard *BlueJ

In a couple of years they will begin to absorb github as well.

@SegFaultPlus4 Never said I did. More just, if I need to insert more or change something to another type of brackets

If you think auto-closing is bad enough, you've never tried it with copilot and vs code insiders all at once

My language has auto-closing quotes. It reads 1 char then auto closes the quotes :D

@RadvylfPrograms that takes the same number of changes with or without auto closing

1:52 PM

E.g., sometimes when you type ) and there's a ) already after it, it just moves the cursor forward instead of typing anything

@lyxal \o

hold on let me go to replit

The worst is in emacs when I have () and I try to delete the ) it just deletes the whole thing.

I'm sure if I were to get used to auto-closing I'd be just as fast with it, but I've got six years of non-auto-closing muscle memory :p

@lyxal copilot and auto closing usually works fine, but for some reason VSC insiders build doesn't like copilot that much, and it looks half completed when it isn't, and completions overlap what you already have.

My work IDE autocloses and I've used it for two years. I am still not used to it.

1:55 PM

@RadvylfPrograms this: "({{},{}},[{},{{}},{},{}]))"

this takes half as long with auto closing as with no auto closing

How?

How often do you type programs that are just sequences of brackets?

You still need to hit the arrow keys to move past the closed brackets

It takes just as long

@RadvylfPrograms i'm glad you asked

The really annoying thing is when I have X and I want (X) or [X].

1:57 PM

Is now a good time to mention that I use vim, which can do everything you're complaining about and never messes up?

give me a second

(with the correct combination of plugins)

@pxeger @pxeger knows where it's at

@WheatWizard fXysl)

@pxeger What do you mean by "never messes up"?

1:58 PM

@pxeger vim users are like arch linux users

My problem isn't with auto-closing "messing up", it's with auto-closing in the first place

@Mayube Of which pxeger is, unfortunately, one

@pxeger That doesn't work if X is large which is ... most of the time.

@RadvylfPrograms Can't be, he hasn't told me 7 times since logging on
