Thanks caird

They really need to make moving mass messages easier on mobile

Because without a physical keyboard connected to your phone, there is no way to ctrl/shift select messages

caird coinheringaahing

Due to the mod UI, I was close to just deleting all 46 :P

For some reason, it's "move/delete" instead of just "move" and "delete" being separate

Hoooooooly frick

This is an MCVE of the bug:

fn a<T>(x: Box<T>) {}

fn main() {
    async fn b() {}

    a(b());
}

That is way smaller than I expected

Unrelated String

whoa

nice

Radvylf Programs

The macro wasn't even involved

Unrelated String

so you didn't even end up needing to use macros for the bug, the bug just happened to be in a macro

oh wow lmao

Radvylf Programs

Yeah

And this also means that no libraries should be needed for this to work

Which is a huge relief since it means I don't need to dig any further into tokio/futures

@RadvylfPrograms whats an mcve, minimum code viable to error or something?

Aw man, it doesn't error in the nightly :/

i assume the original code also doesn't error in the nightly

Radvylf Programs

Haven't checked

It really doesn't matter since the code almost certainly has major errors, but still

Unrelated String

lol

but if it does error then you can still file that delicious bug report

"Æσ": attrdict(arity=1, dx=1, call=lambda x: mp.sqrt(sum(map(lambda i: (i - (sum(x) / len(x)))**2, x)) / len(x))),

can i make the lambda cleaner?

(it is standard deviation)

oh wait i might be able to transpile it..

anyone thats good at pip here, whats the golfiest way in pip to pad a list or scalar with a certain value so that its at a certain length? im probably blind and skipping over a builtin that does just that but like i genuinely dont see it

Aiden Chow

05:39

this is what i have for pad left and pad right with 0's, its way too long: dso.surge.sh/…

ok wait im kinda stupid, it can be golfed

but its still pretty long

for a golfing lang

dso.surge.sh/…

thejonymyster

i found a "grid of zeros" builtin but not a just "list of zeros" builtin

couldnt find anything "padding"ish either :-O

well there is the zip stuff

"aZJb Zip two iterables together, filling missing values with " ", and join each pair of values into a string

ZJa Zip a List of iterables together, filling missing values with " ", and join each group of values into a string"

one of these could be useful (?)

Aiden Chow

@thejonymyster exactly my thoughts, i couldnt find anything to do with padding either

@thejonymyster hmmmm...

thejonymyster

spitballing really, if you could come up with something using that id be impressed :-)

Aiden Chow

well that can be useful for padding with spaces i suppose

thejonymyster

i was also thinking if you could like, generate a length n list of 0s and zip with that and then like... keep the max of each pair?..??...??? i dont know haha

Aiden Chow

05:50

my current strategy is to fill the remaining space with (needed length) - (current length) 0's

thejonymyster

yea that makes sense

@DLosc is there an idiomatic way to "pad x to length y with zs"

(in pip)

Aiden Chow

@thejonymyster couldnt get this to work, and im pretty sure it would be more bytes than what i have currently anyways

thejonymyster

lol yea it was a stretch

and its 2am here :-)

Aiden Chow

ok another try with this:
aZDb Zip a List of Lists together, filling missing values with default value b

ZDa Zip a List of Lists together, filling missing values with default value ""

low chance that it actually works but worth a shot lol

ok nope, setting up the list of lists is too costly

bruuuh how do i remove duplicates in pip

is there no builtin for that

Aiden Chow

oh thank god ok

didnt ctrl f the right terms ig lol

@AidenChow dso.surge.sh/…

Aiden Chow

@Razetime oh huh didnt realize X was a thing

Razetime

sometimes the wording is unobvious

Aiden Chow

07:18

man too many builtins to keep track of, how do ppl with golf langs like jelly or vyxal remember all their builtins

this is literally ascii only, like bruuh

Razetime

you don't, you just eventually know what to search for

the most common ones are usually easy to memorize

Unrelated String

Aiden Chow

@Razetime yea that makes sense

kinda the reason why ive been putting off learning a golf lang is that theres just too many builtins

lyxal

@AidenChow adding to what razetime said, you also learn a generalised set of functions/concepts common to 99% of golfing languages, which makes going from one language to another easier

For example, once you know what cartesian product is, and how to use it to solve challenges, you don't need to know what it is in each language, you just need to do a little ctrl f for relevant terms

The hardest things for a new user of golflangs are learning your first golfing language and learning all the different techniques for solving challenges

Once you get familiar with those, everything else is just appropriating what you already know

Razetime

08:19

@AidenChow yeah, that's a good reason.

Unrelated String

08:29

i think you should go in with a mindset of "i will rely on documentation as much as humanly possible"

just guess what there might be a builtin for, and if you're stumped scroll through all of them until something clicks

Q: How to Implement Snake in the Shortest Code？

No language limit. Operation mode is required. Display the game screen in stdout (not in memory). No keyboard operation is required (characters can be read from stdin). I hope it will become interesting.

Why I shouldn't be allowed to shop for things: started with a sub-$1000 PC build, and after two hours of "ooh maybe I'll just upgrade this a little bit" I now have a $2500 PC build

Which will be really important for all of the...code golfing and Minecraft I do

I'm really torn between Windows, Linux, or dual-boot

I'd need Windows for some games and stuff I have, but Windows is kinda mid ngl

Linux is more familiar and customizable and stuff, but then I run into the issue of support for said software

Ginger

linux forever. this should be easy.

:p

Radvylf Programs

And with a dual-boot you kinda get the worst of both worlds since you need to put up with both of them when they do annoying stuff

Ginger

@RadvylfPrograms what kinda budget you got??? :b

Radvylf Programs

@Ginger Since I now have a job, my budget is measured in "how many hours of my life do I want to put toward this box of sand" :p

Actually the amount of time I need to scan groceries is a pretty good way to visualize the cost of stuff
