I'm referring to "fruit" being a verb meaning, in the context of a plant, "producing fruit" (like "these orange trees are fruiting right now"), and then referencing lyxal's use of the memey phrase "touch grass"
Since only plants produce fruit, and plants are outside, and touch grass
Lyxal is a fruit pla(n)t and his friends are plat(e)s.
@RadvylfPrograms Yeah, I figured what you meant by fruit, I just don't know the grass meme. When I saw lyxal say "Friendly reminder to touch grass today," I took it literally and thought it was pretty good advice.
I'm allergic to grass (or possibly oak or juniper or mold or whatever other living things are spewing sneezy sperm into our communal air), so I'm not gonna touch any grass if I can help it
I had no clue unsure allowed uppercase code with invalid commands. Old Radvylf gave several more fricks about input validation than current Radvylf apparently lol
King of the Cards
In this King of the Hill challenge, you must write a bot that can play Crazy Eights. This is a card game often played by children, in which the objective is to empty your hand.
How to Play
The game of Crazy Eights is deceptively simple. At the beginning of the game, each player ...
turns out I was using my testing account instead of my main account (which did have permission) and the program was correctly not letting me do something I wasn't allowed to
I thought I was stupid, but in reality I was stupid
Thomas is a talking tank engine. He lives on an island called Sodor and basically drives around having minor adventures with his friends and moving passengers and freight.
Are the Thomas stories on-topic for any other reason than the trains talk (in which case, these seem to fall foul of our rule...

This is the reverse of this challenge.
Given an encoded list of codepoints and the characters used to encode it, you need to decompress it to its original string.
For example, given the encoded list [170, 76, 19, 195, 32] and the encoder characters " abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz", ...
@Steffan "?retcarahc eno rof stib 8 sdeen ohW" or "I need 8 bits per character" :P
CMC: Output all prime numbers from 0 to 9999 that, when written with leading zeros (to a max of 4) form a valid 24-hr time (e.g. 1103 and 13 are output, but 1373 isnt)
Design a function or program that, when run normally, outputs the triangular numbers. However, when any character is deleted, the program/function should not function in the original programming language, but instead produce the triangular numbers in some other programming language.
Scoring

(?:2[0-4]|[01]\d)(?:[0-5]\d|60) is my try at a regex for matching that pattern (based on my not very good regex skills), youd need to wrap that with something that matches all 4 digit prime numbers against that
@NewPosts @Romanp ngl, I'm surprised that I don't see any comments on the Sandbox post; if I'd noticed it in the Sandbox, basically the only thing I'd be discussing is the scoring criteria :P
For what its worth, I think you could definitely do a follow up challenge, where you change the task, and reward submissions that can be irradiated into the most number of languages
@cairdcoinheringaahing pythons time objects from the datetime module seem like the best for parsing it as a time, the harder part in python is probably actually generating all the prime numbers
as a search of the python docs doesnt find any sort of math.isprime() function
While Python's used a lot in more scientific and mathematical contexts than like, JS, that's not its primary reason for existing so it's not going to clutter its standard library with things that would traditionally go in a library
@cairdcoinheringaahing Pip, 25 bytes: L2400I60>Uo%h&2=0No%\,oPo (but it times out on ATO, try something like 1000 instead if you want to see some results)
@emanresuA Sort of (10000 would be EE4), but I don't think there's a way to generate the number 2400 shorter than using a literal, and the loop has to stop there because that's how it avoids printing numbers like 2437.
Draw an "apartment" building according to the specifications below.
Basic Rules
Take, as input, the number of floors of the building.
Return a building with that many floors meeting the following specifications:
The building will be eight characters wide, with eight underscore characters (_) on t...
Jelly saves a byte on the codepage indices for [24, 60] (I have to do [4, 10] * 6 in Vyxal) but Vyxal saves a byte on just using a single byte to filter.
