@RedwolfPrograms I think its interesting that Vyxal is probably one of the first "advertised" golfing langs. A lot of people started learning Jelly/05AB1E because they saw how dominant they were in golfing, and Husk got a lot of use from Haskell users who wanted to golf

Redwolf Programs

And I don't really know if I like that transition

I'm hoping it's also the last advertised golfing language :p

caird coinheringaahing

That said, Jelly did have some advertising through advertising for JHT. Though that did kinda assume that you already wanted to learn Jelly

7:43 PM

@RedwolfPrograms Mayyybe. There are some flags that are basically MGS (output processing like d, s, Ṫ), but then there are some that modify the implicit behaviour of the language(like r,R, m and M), and some useful for other reasons - W and c are` useful for debugging, D is almost necessary for short quines,Ḣ is the only way to do graphics , Ṡ and a are usually for convenience of input, j is usually for convenience of output as most challenges allow a list of lines...

Ginger Industries

@emanresuA perhaps you can specify flags as a list of "modifiers" at the beginning of the program? ex. for flags d and s it would be ds|code goes here

emanresu A

That just makes flags cost more and golfing pain

Ginger Industries

@emanresuA But it does remove them.

Redwolf Programs

Other golfing languages get by just fine without flags. Maybe add an output formatting dropdown on the site?

DLosc

CMC: Identify the programming language used in this Tom Scott video (starting at 2:28). (I think I know the answer, but I'm not 100% positive.)

Redwolf Programs

7:46 PM

That makes it extra clear the formatting is not being done by the program, so returning a list of lines wouldn't be valid for something like FizzBuzz

Ginger Industries

alrighty

emanresu A

Flags can be interesting - this for example

Redwolf Programs

I mean, maybe, but CnRs are just a tiny fraction of what Vyxal is used for

Ginger Industries

@DLosc I've got it

does SE chat support spoilers?

Redwolf Programs

And even then I don't think flags add much of interest

@GingerIndustries No

You need to do something like [hover for spoiler](http://example.com "spoiler content")

Ginger Industries

7:48 PM

Ok

@DLosc The language is: hover for spoiler

Redwolf Programs

That seems unlikely

Ginger Industries

@RedwolfPrograms correct file extension, correct-looking syntax

DLosc

@RedwolfPrograms I'm not sure how this is different from flags. Isn't it still a no-bytes-counted way to modify the program's behavior?

Ginger Industries

@RedwolfPrograms ¯\_(ಠ_ಠ)_/¯

Redwolf Programs

@GingerIndustries That doesn't use % for comments does it?

Ginger Industries

7:50 PM

@RedwolfPrograms idk, but it seems most likely

Redwolf Programs

@DLosc Because it's just debug output format. The program very clearly still returns a list. You can't pretend "it's printing a list of lines", because that's just a visualization of the output.

@GingerIndustries They're not on an apple product though, are they?

That language is the forerunner to Swift, for apple products

Oops, spoiler

Ginger Industries

@RedwolfPrograms I've just posted a comment asking, hopefully we'll learn soon

Redwolf Programs

Oh, that's possibly MATLAB

that would make sense, and the syntax looks right at first glance

Ginger Industries

perhaps

emanresu A

@RedwolfPrograms There's still ~90 tho

Redwolf Programs

7:53 PM

Correct file extension, correct comment syntax, correct semicolon/function call syntax

DLosc

@RedwolfPrograms I think this is one of the main disagreements you and I have. To me, a full program always outputs a stream of characters (unless it outputs an image or something). It's meaningless to distinguish between different data types when they produce the same contents on stdout (or in a textarea on a web interpreter).

Ginger Industries

@RedwolfPrograms okay, looks like it's MATLAB

DLosc

If it's a function submission, then yes, it makes sense to distinguish different data types

emanresu A

Tfw you try to open up Vyxal and instead open up the spoofed online interpreter I made to mess with Vyxal's syntax highlighter.

DLosc

@RedwolfPrograms That was my guess too.

Aaroneous Miller

7:55 PM

@emanresuA ?

emanresu A

localhost:5501/demo.html

Oh wait...

Redwolf Programs

@DLosc For some languages, sure. With Perl or C, you're printing the output. You can't output an array, because that's just not part of the environment it runs in. But in JS, you can console.log an array, and it doesn't just print the stringified array. Browser consoles will print an interactive array visualization thing, and Node will print a syntax highlighted array.

Aaroneous Miller

@emanresuA bruh

Ginger Industries

@emanresuA :|

Redwolf Programs

So I don't see why that wouldn't be considered "printing an array"

And I don't see why Vyxal or Jelly or Husk should be presumed to be in the first category

@emanresuA :\

Redwolf Programs

And let's be honest, modern golfing language programs are essentially functions. They have no input or print commands, because that would be stupid when implicit I/O is a thing, and in most Tacit or stack-based languages you could easily make a program into a sub-function of a larger one with the exact same syntax

emanresu A

@AaroneousMiller Lol

Aaroneous Miller

@RedwolfPrograms IIRC, Lyxal got tired of trying to make the safe_apply actually safe, so it's disabled online, but it works fine if you run it offline

Redwolf Programs

Ah ok

Aaroneous Miller

Alternatively, you can just use my strategy of just going and finding an ACE exploit to do eval as Python instead

Aaroneous Miller

2. It's other people's code

user

Please no

But gen4 would be cool

grandBagel

@RedwolfPrograms print10*10times

Redwolf Programs

Instead of tacit/stack based, you just glue a bunch of built-ins together and the AI assumes what you mean

E.g., filter is_prime would obvious mean "filter a list so that only primes remain"

DLosc

@RedwolfPrograms TBH, a couple years ago I thought Jelly was completely untouchable. So now that I've been proven wrong, I'm not about to say that the current crop of languages are the final word in golflangs either.

Redwolf Programs

8:28 PM

@RedwolfPrograms (But with the code page of course)

@DLosc Jelly still sort of is the current crop

grandBagel

@RedwolfPrograms The task: Do ... An example algorithm is at ... The code: get code:... convert code to <language>

Redwolf Programs

@RedwolfPrograms Or, if f was filter, + was addition, and 2 was 2, f+2 could be interpreted as "filter out zeros, then add two to all items"

Or whatever else the AI thinks is a reasonable interpretation

Aaroneous Miller

@RedwolfPrograms Or you could just use Vyxal :P

user

@RedwolfPrograms Well I personally like that part specifically because it’s giving me a teeny bit of experience for the real world

And all of us at Vyxal Corp Ltd (TM) are well aware how small our userbase is

I see nothing wrong with trying to do things professionally, even if lyxal’s documents are a little lofty sometimes :p

Redwolf Programs

It also just doesn't feel like it has a consistent tone

At times y'all act all professional and official, and then other times it's "George" and "Gluten free"

And sometimes both (the "Frick" room incident)

And there's the joke/pushing-the-boundaries features like flags and the 69 constant (if that's still a thing), but then y'all advertise it with way more seriousness than is required even if it was taking itself fully seriously as a language given that it's a hobby project

It just feels like there's a bit of cognitive dissonance within Vyxal, about what the language wants to be, and until that's resolved it's hard to take it seriously.

Aaroneous Miller

8:42 PM

We don't have the 69 constant anymore, instead we have kS

There's some Vyxal devs who lean towards the sh*tposter side, namely myself and Lyxal, and there's some Vyxal devs who lean toward the serious corp-esque side, which creates a... unique mixture of ideals and whatnot

emanresu A

@RedwolfPrograms I hope so, and I doubt we can predict what they'll look like

Aaroneous Miller

@hyper-neutrino nah, I doubt there's anyone like that

hyper-neutrino

but yes, there is very much cognitive dissonance within vyxal because it's a couple random people with no real hierarchy besides "lyxal owns this thing so he gets final say except he's never really needed to use that authority"

i tried to make it a lot more corporate-esque than people even like to pretend it is nowadays because i thought the organization would improve productivity but we gave up on it (which I think was a good idea) and now I don't really work on it

i also find it hard to take it seriously lol

@cairdcoinheringaahing That reminds me, I don't remember if I ever got my Flipbit rewrite finished :P

@cairdcoinheringaahing I think I'm 100% on board with bug reports for my languages (though I won't guarantee they'll get addressed anytime soon). Pull requests... that's a little dicier. Depends on if I approve of their coding style. :P

So the only handheld mixer in my house is from the last century and when you turn it on and off the switch emits a puff of smoke

You can hear a 60 hz hum when you use it on thicker doughs

Q: What to do when something offense in chat is edited into something not offense before it is seen

Q: New Codegolf language: Nibbles

I'd like to announce Nibbles. My goal was to create something as simple as golfscript but as short as any modern golf language. My hope was that by having few enough instructions, they could be encoded in less than 1 byte and that this would cancel out enough of the benefit of complexity. I know ...
