Although I don't like C#/Java lambda's in the sense that they remind me of Calculus Limits, and I always read x => x.Count > 0 as "x such that x.Count is greater than 0."

Anyone want to help me with a Javascript RegExp?

that doesn't sound like fun at all @IsmaelMiguel

Specially emulating negative lookbehinds in Javascript

You have no idea the pain it is

I want to match : only and only if it isn't followed by :

Basically:

a::a <-- can't match. a:a <-- must match :a

Well, I decided to go on the clunky way

does subtraction take more time to compute than addition in the CLR?

Probably not

in my XNA Game I can't turn left while I am shooting and moving forward, but I can turn right while shooting and moving forward...

10:34 PM

Weird

you write .NET code @IsmaelMiguel?

Very little

@Malachi no

subtraction, multiplication and addition are equal time

division is slower

that might explain it

?

10:36 PM

check out my left and right @JeroenVannevel

Left

    playerSprite.Rotation -= Convert.ToSingle(Math.PI / 80);
    _angle -= (Math.PI / 80);
    shipDirection = new Vector2(Convert.ToSingle(Math.Cos(_angle)),
                        (Convert.ToSingle(Math.Sin(_angle))));

Right

    playerSprite.Rotation += Convert.ToSingle(Math.PI / 80);
    _angle += (Math.PI / 80);
    shipDirection = new Vector2(Convert.ToSingle(Math.Cos(_angle)),
                        (Convert.ToSingle(Math.Sin(_angle))));

I highly doubt division being the cause here -- I see 2 casts, 6 method calls, and 4 constructor calls in each snippet alone

BRB Time to Eat....I keep trying to tell her that I can eat when I am done coding.... she told me that I would never eat if that was the case

@JeroenVannevel I can't post the code for Review until I get it working right....

I mean it works, except for that edge case....

Ignore the edge case and let a reviewer stumble upon it

You've got to play dirty

I will remove my commented crap and see what happens with my Player Manager then. I like the way you think @JeroenVannevel

bring me a bite when you're back

@Malachi Did you know about SQLCMD scripting in SSMS? I've discovered that and I've been loving it

/* Change these values to the desired server and database */
:setvar Server "redacted"
:setvar Database "redacted"
:setvar Vendor "redacted"
:setvar BranchCode "BAT"

:connect $(Server)
use $(Database)

declare @Vendor varchar(50) = '$(Vendor)'
declare @BranchCode char(3) = '$(BranchCode)'

Really good for ad-hoc scripts

I feel like this should have been on Code Review instead of Stack Overflow, considering it's looking for a review of working code. — Kevin Brown 27 secs ago

@Phrancis I haven't. that looks useful thought

sloppy joes, yummy

I'm so close to capping on SO for the first time in a year again

Does it reset at 01:00 or 02:00?

You have another hour.

Phrancis

@Malachi All of those are replaced into the actual script before it runs, so it's dynamic-SQL-ish, without all the crap that comes with dynamic

Q: Swift 2.0 JSON parsing

I have been told that it would be wise to split up my code into semantically useful blocks. I tried the following but I need feedback. What I already did: As you can see I create two .csv files, so it seemed logical to have two functions. One for the main dataset, the other for a frequency tab...

Q: Generating frequency tables based on CSV dataset

I am working on a project which crunches plain text files (.lst). The name of the file names (fileName) are important because I'll extract node (e.g. abessijn) and component (e.g. WR-P-E-A) from them into a dataframe. Examples: abessijn.WR-P-E-A.lst A-bom.WR-P-E-A.lst acroniem.WR-P-E-C.lst a...

python performance python3

They're basically the same, and the author's put a bounty on the latter -_-

11:22 PM

I'm against putting both python and python3 on the same question. They are not the same language...

@Mast uh

Python is a general tag that describes all versions of Python

python = Python2

python = Python 2, Python 3

No!

Proof!

11:24 PM

Python was a backwards compatible language.

Which broke when moving towards 3, on purpose.

Everything 2.7.x and lower is Python, all above Python3.

@Mast Uh, we have python-2.7 and python-2.6 tags. The tag python does not mean Python 2.7 or lower.

@EthanBierlein Which only proofs our tagging is flawed, nothing else.

But this is turning into a holy-war, so I'll refrain from further comments.

Me too

There's extensive meta on this subject, but if you'd like to ask a question that's already been asked, go right ahead.

@Quill Not extensive enough IMHO. But hey, the rest doesn't seem to care and it's a community vote principle thingy.

Weighted democracy.

@EthanBierlein Why did anyone star that? It's false...

11:29 PM

There's a plugin you can get that shows you who starred something

@Mast I'm pretty sure that's the purpose of the python tag.

Anyways, I'm going to go eat my microwave dinner.

I'll be back in a bit.

@Quill I thought that they were anonymous.

@SirPython I thought so too, but someone on the C++ lounge said something about it and used it once

gist.githubusercontent.com/rlemon/c6199b3b45d7f2da36bb/raw/…

I had it saved in my bookmarks, but I don't know whether it works

Would you run it just by pasting it into your console?

That's what they said

POST http://chat.stackexchange.com/ws-auth 404 (Not Found)

    $.post('/ws-auth', fkey({

    }))

@Quill be careful the OP will probably roll it back... he said it had nothing to do with weather

Looks like it might be room specific, too.

@Malachi Why did you edit the title? It's JSON parsing in swift 2.0 and it has nothing to do with weather API. I could use any other API in this example. — tailec 47 mins ago

@Malachi Yeah, I don't mind an edit war

It only says that a star was registered, not by whom.

What I meant to say, is 'It seems to not give an error'

Ah, the people over at the lounge found out who starred something using (possibly) this

@SirPython stars are anonymous

  reporter.get('stars')

    "event_type": 6,

},

@SimonAndréForsberg apparently not

11:41 PM

Correct.

@Hosch250 starred the 'ahaha who needs spyware' message

wuut?

Just now, I did.

Who else did?

Could this be a potential post for meta SE?

I'm reading over it now.

It gets into the sockets

 wss://chat.sockets.stackexchange.com/events/8595/6ebd782faa444013916c7a3f64e03e7b

Huh, now I need to write something to keep scripts out of my sockets.

    socket = new WebSocket(url + '?l=' + Date.now());
    socket.onmessage = ondata;
    socket.onclose = onclose;

and then json parsing and so on

It also watches whether people get kicked

and (possibly) by who

wanna try? :)

        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: '/chats/' + roomid + '/messages/new',
            data: {
                fkey: fkey().fkey,
                text: 'Automated Kick Reporter: ' + kicker + ' kicked ' + kicked
            }
        });

wait, sure, @SirPython, you got it up?

11:50 PM

^^ It attempts to post a message when a kick is sent.

Yes, I have it up.

go for it, @SimonAndréForsberg, all in the name of science
