If Conor O'Brien ever gets here, I would like him to golf this Emotinomicon code (a yes program).
🔟⏪😭sey😲⏪⏬⏩🔟⏩
^ (34 bytes, anything shorter?)

@EriktheGolfer You mean, print "yes" infinitely?
with newlines
@EriktheGolfer It seems to be optimal...
 
@ConorO'Brien I knew the 🔟s would prove useful.
 
4:20 PM
@EriktheGolfer I may have found a golfier way, one sec
@EriktheGolfer 32 bytes/11 chars: 🔟😭sey😲⏪⏬⏩😀😬
 
@ConorO'Brien Cool! Jumps can be tricky, though.
 
definitely.
 
Basically, if you add code before the endpoint of the jump, there is a really high possibility the code will fail.
Confession: I have tried lots of times to SWEAR without including any part of a bad word, or the reverse of it.
^ And golf it too.
 
well. you could just increase the index, like n😬
 
@ConorO'Brien I meant that, if you have to add code before the jump endpoint, sometimes you can't "decrease" the index, so you have to painfully increase it on the other side. I think we can agree there is no better way on that.

I don't quite follow--perhaps an example would help illustrate your point?
 
Wait a sec, I need to prepare the examples, it's not as easy as in some other languages.
 
yeah, that's okay. I can wait ^_^
 
Well, I can't seem to prepare one for now :P Anyways, I will clearly explain.
 
5:07 PM
@ConorO'Brien I'm back.
Explanation: Let's say you want to prepend another string before the yes loop starts. That means that the index is changed, and you need maybe even more bytes to put it back to the correct index.
 
ah
of course

n=input();k=8
while k:k-=1;print'CBAD'[(n>>k&257)%127]
f=lambda n,k=8:k*'_'and f(n/2,k-1)+'CB  AD'[(n&257)%6]
f=lambda n,k=8:k*'_'and f(n/2,k-1)+'CDAB'[-(n&257)>>7]
@xnor I tried several variations, but all were exactly one byte longer than my current approach.
