Yeah. It's funny though the way it often gets used is one character per line, explaining what that character does.

Until just now I thought the "created with Lumnispire" Vyxal explanations were 100% auto-generated based on the docs. I was refusing to upvote any of these answers on principle, because I was annoyed with how useless these auto-generated explanations were. Turns out it's just hard to explain code that's to someone that doesn't understand the language.

stats for sure.

@NewPosts I started reading this and it looked like AI output definitely a dupe. Then it started to look like familiar AI output ...
Jan 10 01:38
Well I guess I flubbed that joke.
Jan 10 01:38
Yeah, I suppose that is missing from the statement.

The number of countable well orderings is the definition of aleph_1.

Spoiler the CMegaC is equivalent to the continuum hypothesis.
Jan 9 23:44
Nice!
Jan 9 23:34
Yes, that's what I meant by they are comparable. Standard alphabetical order is exactly that, the normal alphabetical order.
Jan 9 23:23
Chat mini challenge: Prove that there are as many of these orderings as there are real numbers.
Chat mega challenge: In the "standard alphabetical order" we can have infinitely many words between two words, but every pair of words is comparable, and every strictly decreasing sequence of words is finite. Prove that with these weaker conditions there are as many of these orderings as there are real numbers.

@ATaco There are in fact uncountably many ways to do this.
Jan 9 22:05
Interesting.
Jan 9 22:02
b comes before aa.

Am I crazy or is this not alphabetical order: codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/12615/56656

@UnrelatedString Yeah, this is a good point. Its funny how sometimes being explicit about a way things are flexible makes them appear less flexible.

I'm going to post this. Last chance for sandbox feedback.

A: Sandbox for Proposed Challenges

Wheat WizardFree Kei Friday A kei (圭) is an algebraic structure that abstracts the idea of mirror reflections. The kei is given as a set of mirrors \$X\$ and a closed reflection operation \$(\rhd) : X\times X\rightarrow X\$. We say that \$a \rhd b\$ represents the reflection of \$a\$ in \$b\$. Reflections fo...

Yeah, the question doesn't show up in the active tab.
Dec 14, 2024 22:05
Do negative score questions actually show up in recent?
Dec 14, 2024 22:05
They can tinker with it. They may eventually reach a valid challenge, or they may give up on it.
Dec 14, 2024 22:04
I really don't think there's any problem here. A poorly written challenge does no harm.
Dec 14, 2024 22:03
I don't think it's worth pursuing if the challenge is not in a state to go to main.
Dec 14, 2024 20:00
@Ginger I asked them to move it to the sandbox, because the review queue is a not a good way to do what they want to do.

@Seggan Where is the chat context for the spellcheck question? I'd like to edit the question to be code-golf instead of just the tags.
Oct 29, 2024 18:19
@emanresuA Done.

The problem with oop is that nobody does oop or knows what oop is.
Aug 14, 2024 12:17
@lyxal Yeah that's sort of the kind of thing I want to use them for.
Aug 14, 2024 11:45
I have no explanation for why this is the output.

Ah well the single code block is 4 lines.
Aug 14, 2024 11:42
Nope. There is a code block and there is something in it other than empty lines.
Aug 14, 2024 11:39
I can nearly promise, the answer is weirder than you think.

CMC: without checking, what do you think the following markdown renders as:
Aug 6, 2024 21:46
Yeah, I worked in Kotlin before golang, I had a nicer time even though the Kotlin project was several times larger. But really it was all about the DBs. I was working in user data so very DB heavy.
Aug 6, 2024 21:43
When something's little it hardly matters what tools you use IMO.
Aug 6, 2024 21:43
And I'm not sure what the use for it even is.
Aug 6, 2024 21:42
I like golang, but I don't think it was really the use for it.
Aug 6, 2024 21:42
I used to work in golang professionally. It's a mixed bag. It has a very strong design philosophy, but we had problems with structured data. Particularly there was no way to structurally verify DB queries at compile time, which is not ideal.

Sometimes you have to go in person if they haven't been digitized though.
Aug 6, 2024 17:51
@RydwolfPrograms Usually you can get these from the building department very easily.

@emanresuA sssshhhhhh
Jul 24, 2024 23:39
@lyxal Congrats. I don't think 6 years is a bad timeframe at all. 8 years in and I'm not even 75% of the way to that.
Jul 17, 2024 03:47
@emanresuA I accidentally declined it thinking it was flagging the other garbage answer on that question, which is off-topic but not jibberish. That answer is borderline R/A imo.
