I just realized that in my programming language, [dyad][monad][value1][value2] evaluates to monad(dyad(value1, value2)), not dyad(monad(value1), value2). Should I change that or keep as-is?

@HyperNeutrino you should probably change that to be consistent with the prefix behaviour
 
user165474
@LeakyNun The thing is though, the language is primarily meant to be postfix-based; that is, postfix will always work and prefix doesn't work half the time and infix is just messed up. Actually though, I should change it because it doesn't affect postfix. Yeah I'll change it.

@MDXF You need to mark your answers as non-competing D:

@Okx :/
I probably should... but how is it necessary, if none of my answers are even remotely close to winning?
If an answer has already been accepted then of course mine are noncompeting :P

Okx
because i don't want to edit all your answers

@Okx I wasn't asking you to; I'm just saying, is it necessary that it's done at all?

yes
i think
yes
ok i just got 4 pings because you keep editing xD

Q: Let's allow newer languages/versions for older challenges

Martin EnderI've been thinking for a long time that our non-competing policy for newer languages (or language versions) is harmful. Just for context, we currently require all answers which require implementations that are newer than a challenge to be marked as non-competing. At the core there was a good inte...

discussion policy answers noncompeting

@MDXF Actually I identify as "Attack helicopter" so the correct sentence is "I notified the horrific war machine in TNB"

Yeah so you had questions?
 
MD XF
MD XF
Yeah. 1- What's with the big disclaimer on the front page of the repo, "all existing bugs will stay here but let me know if you find any"?
2- why is it called Add++, is it object-oriented?
 
caird coinheringaahing
caird coinheringaahing
So I frozen development on it a rep days ago but wasn't sure if there were any bugs so I wanted people who find any to tell me so that, when I eventually write the docs, I can include a list of bugs.
 
MD XF
MD XF
Ah, that makes sense. I thought you were just like bored of working on it :P

2) I originally made Add which was a more basic version of it, without functions and wanted to given it a rehaul.
Now I'm working on a language to beat both Jelly and 05AB1E in any challenge but it's difficult
 
MD XF
MD XF
Hm. ++ implies object-oriented-ness, e.g. C++, HQ9++, etc
might be a good idea to change it to something like, e.g. Add2 or Add 2.0
Huh that sounds fun, good luck! They're pretty difficult languages
 
caird coinheringaahing
caird coinheringaahing
Meh. It's also because it's adding* so the name is like add add add
 
MD XF
MD XF
Heh that's clever
 
caird coinheringaahing
caird coinheringaahing
Thanks. For my new language, it's actually doing well in its beta stage. 12 is the best score for this but in Cubular (my language) I can get it down to 7

MD XF
Cubular? how long ago did you come up with that?

2 months. I know that it's similar to your Cubically but it should be fine, right?
 
MD XF
MD XF
Yeah I was just curious
Seemed oddly similar lol

@cairdcoinheringaahing I was tired :P

Other news! I just read your profile. How could you abandon us? Who will get hundreds of upvotes for bending C rules? Who?!

> due to a work promotion
I won't have time :(
I haven't even golfed for C in weeks anyway, been busy working on Triangular/Cubically/not losing my job

After work? We can't lose you! Although if you do leave, I promise (kinda) to post at least 2 Triangular answers!
does the rep cap apply across all of SE or just on each site?
 
MD XF
MD XF
Hm. Yeah I plan to golf after work, but not for a while. I don't want any distractions
No it's site-specific
 
caird coinheringaahing
caird coinheringaahing
Yeah that makes sense (both)
 
MD XF
MD XF
Cool. But have fun with Triangular :P
Have you looked at Cubically btw?
 
caird coinheringaahing
caird coinheringaahing
Yeah but the memory model confuses me. It's the same with Jelly
How exactly do you store values on a rubix cube? What if you need more than 54 values?
 
MD XF
MD XF
Good. That's it's point
Oh that's not how the memory model works at all
You can't store a value on a cubelet; each cubelet is pre-initialized to a value
You can't perform any operations on cubelets, only on entire faces
It's basically exactly like a Rubik's cube
