y'know what would be funny - if the site proposal got more followers than Cyrptocurrency in less than 24 hours
40 more followers, 38 more questions
looks like we need more advertising
@lyxal true
I'm done with discord
I've put word into 5 discord servers, 3 different profile bios, and 2 subreddits
methinks it's time for a break from the ads
and to sleep
I've done for 2 servers
later, nerds :p
good night
14:02
Yea it's probably more efficetive if you split over a few days anyways
yawn guess I'll retract my follow as this is getting nowhere
Why would you retract?
It will take weeks probably
did I not write a reason?
@UndoneStudios no don't do that
> as this is getting nowhere
14:03
these things take time
In what way is it getting nowhere?
Well I'm done and I've gotta go sleep too
retracted
Go to sleep but leave your follow
I'm so confused what do you lose by following?
14:04
my sleep will get disturbed by dilemmas over i should follow or not
It will get confused anyways
bout what?
If you should have followed or not
xaclee why I'm just taking a stand: don't
that stand makes no sense though
there's no disadvantage to following
14:06
especially cuz as you said, I don't really need the site, I can drop the new lang anyway
The site can help though
There are more steps between completely unnecessary and essential
@mousetail well you said it, and my brain won't retract the decision to drop the lang
or to follow it
Again there are steps between extremes
product of means = product of extremes
False
14:08
what you failed ratios and proportions?
What if one of the extremes is 0, then the product is 0
yes, and 0 = 0
No, the means are not 0
Also there is no guarentee the extremes are balanced around the mean
I said, product of means are zero
besides ratio terms can
not have 0 as a term
so that always holds true
You still assume a uniform distribution
but hardly anything is actually uniform
14:10
wtf are you talking about when did i mention distrubution
did i?
In fact ratios usually have a logarithmic distribution or lognormal so the mean would be far out
argh I'm still 7th grade so don't confuse me
well you're a logic bully so fine I'll follow
why did "How can I implement an optimization pass using egraphs and egg Rust crate?" get a downvote?
Good question, it seems high quality
then upvote
why did it get a downvote
PyGamer0 entered the room
14:13
I wasted all my 5 votes
@null and?
Quote from reddit:
> Am I interested? Yes. I even thought of a few example questions.

> Am I interested enough to get login to work on Area 51? Hell no. I'd rather be
> chained naked to a fire ant nest.
@UndoneStudios Never wasted
remember we need more question with 10 score than we currently have questions total
@mousetail Wdym
All current questions need 10 score to win
so no matter which you voted on it will be a deciding vote
@UndoneStudios Seriously, I think you need to go to the doctor.
@null I think he's just a teenager being a teenager
14:15
And that means we need 32/5 people to vote
@null I'm going tomorrow
@mousetail Well, actually, I'm a teenager.
@mousetail Yes I am
Teenagers develop at different speeds
Well then.
I, for example, never grew up
14:17
@mousetail mine develops at the slowest
Now that I look at what I wrote in this room 3 years ago.
I'm a 24y/o teenager
@mousetail no wonder you look like a gen z
I seriously feel that I need a new account.
null is a really cool account name though
14:20
If I would, I'll stay with my acc name as I really don't finish my work
@mousetail It's not mine.
It's due to something that I don't want to talk about.
Actually, my name is TwilightSparkle, and later, HighlyRadioactive.
A really bad error on some really big program?
returning "null"
i bet
@UndoneStudios No, it's due to a vandalism that happened on my account.
@null Well I've done worser things than that
So I can't understand
It's not me.
I think Lyxal remember how that happened.
14:24
@mousetail Depending on how long this process takes, I potentially won't be
If you want to mention someone, just type their name with a "@" at the beginning
like this: "@lyxal"
Maybe they didn't want to ping lyxal, which you just did for no reason
besides the worst and dumbest thing I've done is rickroll my entire class along with me
@RadvylfPrograms I did want to
And... you said you'll be old enough to vote next year right?
If it takes that long you'll be a mod. Probably.
@UndoneStudios Oh I did that twice, it was awesome. Once in science, where there was a list of research sources we had to look at, but the teacher accidentally made it an editable document. The second time I made the rickroll video be the custom background for a Kahoot (an educational game thing), which got my Latin class
No, mine's was terrible. My teacher called me after class and gave me a big reprimand
and now there are legends about it
14:27
Well of course the teacher wasn't happy
And I don't like that
because I'm paranoid of people
besides I know what Kahoot is
though it's outdated in the UAE now
Yeah but other people in this room might not
we use quizizz
which is way better
here's the webpage: rizwan342.github.io/js.html
Quizizz has issues too though, they kept adding weird dumb features back when we used it
Though we are blooket fans now
@RadvylfPrograms yeah it was counter-competetive
14:30
Blooket sucks, it's ripped off from a much better game, entirely luck based, and has atrocious UI
Blooket is like the king of all quiz making websites
@RadvylfPrograms No
and the Ui is amazing
kahoot looks boring
and you can't move on till everyone's done
From a game design perspective Blooket is complete garbage
@RadvylfPrograms Well that's something I'll have to point out to my friends
though the next thing will be "choking noises"
they're so aggressive if you provoke them
and half the time you have no idea if you are provoking them
Sounds like you need better friends then. They like Blooket and they randomly aggro on you?
Of course they do. And when you're a nerd you'd be lucky to get a friend down here
But if I say your opinion to them they'll think it's mine
And then they'll try to kill me
actually
once I got hit hard in the back of my head
got knocked out
14:35
You'd probably be better off with no friends than "friends" who hit you hard enough to knock you out and who you're too scared of to actually talk with
7
@RadvylfPrograms it's not like you can avoid them
they'll put themselves on you
and you can't avoid them, you just can't
besides there are advantages to having them
our really boring last exam today was ended early only because of them
and we had loads of fun
all cuz of them
literally who starred that now
something is wrong
Well we are all off so I'm going too
14:54
Oh, Redwolf Programs came here
but I missed the fun :(
We got 4/40 questions on the langdev
wdym
15:19
ofc adam would post this
Lol yea, imagine if every language required it's own unicode block
We only get five votes each, so we should be strategic with them. Don't upvote things that already have 10
@RadvylfPrograms yeah im revoting rn
iirc when we get 60 followers we can go to the next stage
Yeah, but only if we've also got 40 questions with 10+ score
60 followers and 40 questions with 10+ score right?
I mean ^^
15:22
Wait...we actually need 80 people, since they only get 5 votes each
You don't need to follow to vote
by my calculations were getting a new follower every half hour
but yea 80 people with at least some interest
@Seggan Mostly because reddit, it will die down
correction: every 37 minutes and 33.6 seconds
on average
We need someone to post on HN tomorrow
15:25
also, what do yall think of this
I think it's pretty vague
It could be talking about primitives (e.g., "should strings be treated as primitives"), or about standard library size, or...oh wait I think it's about golflangs
Oh if anyone wants to post a question but doesn't have ideas, "should strings be a primitive data type" is a good one
Should we make a chat room for this?
Maybe
It would cut down on exposure
but probably be ethically the best
Yeah, but for like, moderation purposes that aren't really relevant to TNB I guess
sorry @DialFrost people who golf have to sleep too
15:32
@DialFrost Int.(split(x))?
@DialFrost it works for me /shrug
My inbox be like
@Steffan why tf does your inbox look like that
15:52
I am wondering why there has been no rust answer so far too by fastest-code challenge
Because nobody wrote one
well yes
@mousetail :)
16:37
@lyxal it did
DSO is having some strange behavior, can someone take a look?(My input may be formatted wrong, but I'm pretty sure that it's not)
https://dso.surge.sh/#@WyJwaXAiLCIiLCJQYUAxXG5bXCJIZWxsb1wiO1wiV29ybGRcIl1AMSIsIiIsIiIsIltcIkhlbGxvXCI7XCJXb3JsZFwiXSJd
@emanresuA isn't that your site?
16:56
@cairdcoinheringaahing could you 11 the room into the pinned message?
 
2 hours later…
19:13
@Ginger that's when you clikcon All items
i had to go there to take a screenshot because the messages didn't fit in the size of the dropdown
@Baby_Boy IIRC you need -x or -p to eval input
Huh maybe not, i honestly don't remember
@Baby_Boy This is what you want
@emanresuA thanks man, i was struggling lol
What I think was happening was Pip's argparser was seeing double quotes and thinking those were the arguments? (I don't entirely know how it works)
20:22
@lyxal can you edit your reddit post to remind people to use all their upvotes?

Amazing that Julia is beating C and C++ for speed
Maybe it really is the fastest language these days
CMM: Do y'all think advertising Area 51 proposals on our meta should be allowed? Some sites seem to be fine with that, while others aren't.
It looks like most well received advertisements are made after the 60 followers are acquired, so maybe that would be a good threshold?
21:40
I think it should be fine
21:59
agree
are those the only examples?
22:23
@Seggan no
Titles can't be edited
edit body then
22:38
It's a link post
There is no body to edit
that exists?
argh
23:17
@RadvylfPrograms No, as said by the former SE employee in charge of Area 51:
5
A: Promote Area 51 proposal on other SE sites

Robert CartainoI can understand wanting to share your enthusiasm for your favorite proposal, but advertising them on a meta site — even if it is veiled as a question — would not be appropriate. That is not the purpose of meta; Off topic. We have already started grouping proposals into "Categories" so we can ad...

Community Ads are appropriate however, and I believe they'll be updated in the new year

Q: Implement Casio's M

oeufThe task Most Casio calculators featured a variable M, which has 3 operators related to it: M, M+, and M- M, as you can expect, returns the value stored in the variable. M+ takes the number on the left and add it to M. M- does the same thing as M+, but subtract instead. To make the challenge just...
