Is there no way to comment on an Edit Proposal?

As in, a suggested edit?
ATaco
ATaco
Yeah
user

You can reject with a reason, I think?
caird coinheringaahin g

You can reject with "causes harm" and that lets you leave a comment on the edit, visible to the editor

There should be a better system for that...

> I have absolutely no capability to draw art more complex than lines on a page
(source)
Hey @lyxal, I have something to tell you about art :P
lyxal

So that's "art" is it
caird coinheringaahin g
caird coinheringaahin g
Yes
Unrelated String
Unrelated String
yes
caird coinheringaahin g
caird coinheringaahin g
It's quality may be subjective, but it is art
lyxal
lyxal
well anyway, my initial statement of being "[unable to] draw art more complex than lines on a page" is still accurate
"art more complex"
caird coinheringaahin g
caird coinheringaahin g
03:14
But you understand that basically all art is just lines on a page?
lyxal
lyxal
yes
but some is more complex than others
Unrelated String
Unrelated String
depending on the medium it can also be irregular splotches on a page, or lines in a 3d space :P
caird coinheringaahin g
caird coinheringaahin g
Or even lines through story
@lyxal You could absolutely make a piece of art more complex than a Kandinsky
Complexity does not equate to "being good art" :P
lyxal
lyxal
of course you say that, being the patron spirit of artists and all

@pxeger is the List class from libgolf a drop in replacement for python's list?

@NewPosts IMHO this should not be closed, it's perfectly clear even if it's low quality. It also has a clearly specified objective scoring criterea

@pxeger what does vlq even mean
also r we doing lotm this month or no
mousetail

Very Low Quality
@AidenChow It didn't happen last month
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
@mousetail yea thats why im asking for this month lol
r we skipping again?
mousetail
mousetail
The author of the top rated post thought it was dead, and unless the top scoring post changes it's their decision I guess
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
if we were to do an lotm which one we doing?
it looks like its arn?
mousetail
mousetail
10:05
Seems so yes
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
10:16
what if we run out of nominations for lotm
mousetail
mousetail
Then I guess Mario Lang gets to be the LOTM for all of eternity
Even though it has no interpreter and isn't properly specified
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
bro mario lang?? lotm is overkill for that kinda lang
u can barely do anything with it i feel like
mousetail
mousetail
It's the lowest score post so it will be the last one
Aiden Chow

its kinda like brainfuck if iirc
except 2d and with gravity

If the event is dead that will never happen though

now i cant change my downvote... i wish i can do that :(

i was tryna get desmos to be lotm i remember

You can edit the post then change your downvote, then undo the edit I think
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
and just downvoted the high rated answers, one of which was arn at the time
damn it really got downvoted to death
wow it was posted november 2020
0_0
@mousetail lol ig thats a way of doing it
mousetail
mousetail
The question is: What are we going to replace LOTM with when it dies?
Maybe some kind of challenge theme for the month
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
10:23
i feel like its already kinda dying at this point, nominations arent getting as many votes as they were in the past
and we literally skipped a month
mousetail
mousetail
With "when it dies" I mean right now
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
@mousetail ooooh if u flesh that out a bit more i can see that being a real thing
kinda like the monthly puzzle theme on puzzling SE (i forgot the actual name of it)
mousetail
mousetail
@AidenChow Yea like that exactly
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
@mousetail 💀💀💀 true tho
mousetail
mousetail
I really want to see more focus on writing good challenges instead of answers. Answers are pretty easy to write and are cool to look at once. Good challenges just keep on giving
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
10:28
@mousetail yea, and also good challenges will result in good answers as well, so thats a plus
mousetail
mousetail
Very true, a question is literally worth 10 answers
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
lol good point, if u r good at writing challenges u will farm rep easily lmao
mousetail
mousetail
Bad challenges also farm a lot of rep though
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
well if u mean bad as in uncreative then ya u can gain rep that way, but if u write a really bad challenge then it will just be closed
and also i feel like many of us here wont upvote low effort challenges, at least i wont
its more like when a q becomes a hnq, that attracts a lot of upvotes from ppl not necessarily from code golf community
mousetail
mousetail
Most qs become HNQs, but if the title isn't clickbaity it won't' result in many votes
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
10:35
well usually bad challenges will have some clickbait title so that doesnt help matters
mousetail
mousetail
Exactly
Those challenges deserve the votes they get for sure, but I think it would be nice to have a extra incentive to create the best challenge in a theme and not worry too much about if it's sufficiently clickbait.
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
yea but what would be the incentive... rep?
mousetail
mousetail
Rep as a bounty yes
Aiden Chow
Aiden Chow
hmm as long as u have ppl every month willing to give away some of their rep, then that could work
PyGamer0

@pxeger just that?

@UnrelatedString I'm very amused by the fact that every time you've changed who's in your PFP you've also silently updated your Many Users answer
so, I've figured out the execution flow of Rabbit programs:
1. find the main source file in the target module
2. ANTLR parses the source file
3. Run over that and turn it into a tree of nodes
4. Resolve imports and do steps 1-3 for all of them
6. Do any needed processing on classes and such
7. Resolve and check types for all files, from bottom of import tree up
8. Execute the main method
mousetail
mousetail

You could consider caching the results of steps between 2 and 7, then it again when running the same file again. Like python does for .pyc files

LDQ: Should flax have strings?
i am going to hate myself lol
mousetail

15:25
You should name your strings threads
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
@mousetail wont there be confusion between string threads and process threads :p
mousetail
mousetail
No name process threads strings
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
oh no :p
but the question is should i add string to my golflang
sure overloading will be a lot of work
but it gives me more builtins :p
(at this point i am just wondering if i am making flax a vyxal but jelly)

@mathcat i am pretty sure @emanresuA tried to make something like it
wasn't it called Velay?
found it

@PyGamer0 yes
more types = more overloads
e.x. Fig has a regex type
disadvantage: reimplementing many builtins for strings as opposed to lists
@Ginger you do?
for what?
@AidenChow ill do fig if anything
or rol
i got my most upvoted comment ever
Ginger
Ginger

@PyGamer0 do you have lists?
PyGamer0

@Ginger es

just make a string a list of integers representing character codepoints
no new types needed!

lmao you just said what i was already doing

Strings are useless.

@Seggan that is the reason why i did not want to implement it in the first place lol

@AidenChow i meant ill nominate it if we run out

@Seggan cool!
u can nominate it rn tbh.... dont have to wait until we run out
also what if we run out of nominations and the only one left is mario lang...

Q: Draw Parcly Taxel's cutie mark

Parcly TaxelI've been a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic for a long time, and very early on I created a pony version of myself also called Parcly Taxel (warning: may be too cute to look at). The symbol below is her "cutie mark", which you will be drawing here: Construction All key points of the cu...

@NewPosts @ParclyTaxel so is a "cutie mark" like a Twitter verification for ponies? :b

typeof(ctx.return_type().type().toType()) as type
Ginger
Ginger
trust me there's a perfectly good explanation
also,
> ctx.argument_list().argument().map { Argument(it.identifier().toIdentifier(), it.type().toType()) }
I am a professional Kotlin programmer
and ctx.functionType.type == RabbitParser.FUNCTION -> FunctionType.FUNCTION

@Ginger does a return_type need to be different than a type

ordpttNerdle is a Wordle variation, in which instead of words, the answers are equations. Each equation entered in the game must be a valid one. Example: "13³-1=2196" The task is to generate and output to a .txt file all possible 10 character equations that could be an answer for the game (specifically...
