> dlist
I'm telling you this chatroom
i see it everywhere
normal people see the letter d followed by the word list
I see "haha that's a funny mispelling of dlosc"
Stop posting about code golf! I'm tired of seeing it! My friends on SE send me code golf, on discord it's code golf. I was in a chatroom right, and allll of the messages were just code golf stuff. I showed an esolang to a friend and I said "when the program is golfed". I looked at a Java program and I go "that's a bit verbose". I looked at a dlist declaration, and I think of the Pip creator and I go "dlist? more like DLOSC!" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
it's too late for you

there is no escape, only golf
ugh, those messages make me cringe now

I get embarrassed whenever I look at messages I sent when I was younger (five minutes ago)

If this discussion is complex... How can I decompose it to the real and the imaginary?
Oh, here's a better joke: "This is the high-quality quaternionic discussion I come here for."

dont' make me
don't make me say it user
@Ginger looking back and cringing is a sign that you've grown
or something like that
for example, I know I've grown because half the stuff i sent in 2020 I wouldn't send now
that, and apparently I've gotten taller in the last 3 years probably
but that's a different kind of growth
Honestly if I could just burninate everything from before 2016 that'd be great

01:45
Mods can do that?
purge history + delete
duh
Ah cool
+ move to private room for extra burning
now whether that's something mods should do is another question
I'm surprised there's no cooldown or anything for such mod actions
mass delete
just like mass move
do it all in one :p
01:47
That's a bit scary
yes
yes it is
How easy is it to undo such things if a mod goes on a rampage?
message moving, easy. message deleting, hard
@user worse thing is that they put the move and delete buttons next to each other
so you really need to be paying attention :p
Fun
fun mod activities: go to a random room, type 70 messages deleted, and then say "oh oops I misclicked" and then don't elaborate

@lyxal Oh for goodness sake you got me
the worst part is that's the second time I've done that :p
I just copy pasted that and changed the message :p

🥳20k🥳
@UnrelatedString congrats!
1 cake ordered for Unrelated String
@UnrelatedString welcome to the world of being able to delete answers :p
That's basically the last privilege you'll ever earn
No one uses 25k tools :p
man i can't wait to unlock site analytics
there's so many analytics i'm going to site
09:14
it's not for me, its goddamn hard for me to earn reputation
09:25
@UnrelatedString especially given that the data is basically useless
Meaning you can only analyse post counts and vote counts
Which you basically get a sense of from just being active on the site anyway :p
yep lmao
and can probably also wrangle better with sede if i really wanted to

If that's described well.

@lyxal you almost got me that time
well played
12:53
thank god I would've 100% clicked on that
always hover, never click
@mathscat on that what?
this, of course
@mathscat that's almost disappointing given that I've already pulled that trick once and got 6 stars on it
Honestly I don't know how any of y'all almost fell for it I would have assumed it was obvious :p
If I'd known y'all'd let yourselves get rickrolled this easily, I would have just dangled a turkey leg on a rope from the ceiling.
@lyxal well it has been a few months since rickrolling was at its peak #defnotanexcuse
12:59
But it's me we're talking about
And at the very least you could have manually checked the bakery to see if there was anything there
and just after this too:

fun mod activities: go to a random room, type 70 messages deleted, and then say "oh oops I misclicked" and then don't elaborate
of course it's going to be fake
the feeble-minded fools!
@lyxal calm down, sherlock
one does not just look at the previous message
skill issue
13:16
the joke is even worse with context
how was that one year ago
why'd you post that here?
I think it's something important. If you don't think so, feel free to move it...
I don't think it's very important, as evidenced by the answer countering its primary points
also, I can't move it :p
...for now
13:58
@PetəíŕdTheLinuxWizard the points made in the post are debatable, to say the least :P
imo you should get reputation for vtd/vtc'ing posts, that would make everything a tad more rewarding
Only problem is that's rep only available to people who already have rep
Inaccessible to low rep users
And even then, vtcing a post is temporary by nature. Does that mean you lose the rep if it's reopened?
Also, you'd need some sort of way to avoid people going on vtc sprees. And is rep awarded to successful vtcs or all vtcs?
@lyxal right I didn't think about that
Also, what's to stop people closing/deleting questions and answers with an alt to farm reputation?
Quality control measures isn't something you should be rewarded for
Not with rep at least
There really should be more rep for editing past 2K rep though
And looser standards about conflicting with author intent
@mousetail you'd need to raise the rep requirement for editing privileges then. Because people could otherwise farm rep with edits they apply without any approval
That, or a system where you can opt into having it peer reviewed
Which would add more work to review queues on other sites
14:48
Maybe, I'm thinking of a system where some proportion of the rep from upvotes goes to anyone who has substantially edited a post

Not sure what I built but I think it's working

CMC Output every string with the following rules: Consist only of A, B, C, D, and E. B and D can only appear after A, B, or C and A, C, and E can only appear after D and E.

@lyxal I am i n e v i t a b l e
@mousetail Should we assume that all five letters can also appear at the start of the string?
(Otherwise, polyglot: empty program :P)
This is hard to do with Regenerate
Though yesterday I was kicking around ideas for adding lookarounds, which would make it easier
@mousetail Does each string have to be output only once, or can there be some duplicates?
17:32
Ideally exactly once
17:46
Okay, I think this works (though I've only exhaustively verified it out to two letters):
@mousetail Regenerate, 45 bytes: (B*D)?([AC]B*D)*(E+([AC]B*D)+)*E*([AC]B*)?|B+
The main pattern boils down pretty nicely to (E+([AC]B*D)+)*, but then I've got to account for all the ways it could start or end
Ah and I can use the command line options to get more output
Yes (-a for infinite output)
With hypothetical lookbehind syntax, I think it could be something like [A-E]?((?<=[ABC])[BD]|(?<=D|E)[ACE])*

19:46
@mousetail Is that the penrose tiling thing you were working on?
Yea, I don't think it's working though
I'm trying to go west from the rhomb near the B but I don't think with my current numbering system I can actually represent the tile that's there
The mistake I discovered yesterday is that I actually can represent an uneven number of left vs right rhombs, which is very odd but it didn't seem to cause any issues for a while so I thought maybe it wasn't actually a problem. Now it seems yes it does actually matter
It's not a huge problem to change one right one to a left one, but I'll need to re-calibrate everything
Also I still wouldn't know if it was actually good that time, even if I put in that effort
It took me nearly an entire day to do it the first time
19:59
@DLosc pls pls pls do i always dream of this
Basically the issue is I'm taking the right half of the shape on the top and the left half of the shape at bottom, but that actually ends up with the rhomb at the bottom right of the top shape is a right rhomb so I'll need to take the other one but it's totally disconnected from the rest of the shape so IDK if that's going to cause problems
@mousetail strongbad
Has been incredibly helpful
its definitely going a bit above my head, maybe if there was like a youtube video i could follow along or something ahah
20:37
I don't know, I'm finding it really hard to find info I can understand so now I'm just making stuff up
@thejonymyster My latest idea was, rather than implementing something myself, to use actual regex lookarounds that get tested against the final generated string, and it rejects the string if the lookaround fails
One problem with that is Python regex flavor still doesn't have variable-length lookbehinds IIRC
@thejonymyster Basically there are 5 types of tiles, from top to bottom labeled A, B, C, D, and E. Then for each edge of each type of tile I need to store if you move in "north" or "east" for example, where will you end up? For example if you move north from B you end up on the east side of A. If you end up at the edge of the parent tile, repeat the process for the next tile up
20:58
Ok this looks very good now
Ooh, that has a cool 3D-ish effect
I'm already happy that the vertices are finally lining up properly
21:49
@DLosc lmao delicious delicious work around
oh nice lineup
@mousetail that seems pretty straightforward so im not sure whats confusing me, i might just be out of it today
thank you nonetheless
22:16
Welp time to pack up everybody
This is peak golfing efficiency
22:37
agree
