"half the population voted for Donald Trump in 2016" - from the link you provided, 55.7% turnout times 46.1% of the vote going to Trump means that only 25.7% of the population voted for Trump

@cairdcoinheringaahing it exists, about a 0% chance I'll update it though

thoughts on changing the title of polyquine, the polyglot-quine challenge, to include "(polyglot quine)" in the title? It's not even on the first page of search results for "polyglot quine"

Anyone have fresh take (or at least fresh votes) on this meta post on function quines? It's an older meta question, just noticed it in my profile, and the two opposing answers are tied 13-13.

@SriotchilismO'Zaic Yeah, the language is old - however, I was finally able to make it be useful in this answer, so I was thanking you for providing the reason I made the language in the first place :)
Stephen

yeah that's why I found his last chat and replied to it

@SriotchilismO'Zaic Sorry for the random reply, couldn't ping you directly, but thanks for making this challenge, I finally used that language for something lol

@WheatWizard Yeah, but when I designed it it had more features, they just never got implemented because they weren't really practical, and I haven't touched it since that afternoon when my brain went haywire

@Llewellyn 100% this - as someone with high code quality standards, I do my group projects as pair programming. Sometimes I type, sometimes my teammate does, and the git log definitely doesn't tell the whole story

One thing to keep in mind is that there is no downside, and a large possible upside, for students to ask these questions. If you say no, no harm done, but if you say yes and give them what they want, it is easier to study for the exam - why wouldn't they ask these questions?

@Mars it does, but most of it is technically illegal for a larger software shop to use, once legal sees the conditions for using JetBrains community, they'll usually recommended buying a license (kind of like WinZip)

@KrystosTheOverlord currently it is definitely too arbitrary because you have stuff like "more points" and "bonus points" there, but not fully described. People answering this question should be able to calculate their own score, so you should describe exactly how the score is calculated.

@BT if you have an infinite number of nines after a decimal point, moving the decimal point does not change the number of nines.

@th3no0b most people that ask questions about social events and work complain because they are outside of work hours and they want to be paid to attend social events at work. You are being paid for the social event, the company decided that paying you to not work is a better way to spend their money than to pay you to work.

@inéquation I am able to read that font - however, it takes work to read that font. I can write cursive. As a student, I would hate presentations in that font because it would make taking notes take longer. On the other hand, reading the font of this comment is intuitive - I don't have to think about doing it.

@ETHproductions no problem, it was getting a bit lengthy, although this might cause some people to miss some if they Ctrl-F it or something
Stephen
Oct 31, 2017 02:49
@cairdcoinheringaahing no, it's not impossible - the sequence only goes up to a certain amount, so you can hard code it up to that, and since the sequence doesn't go any higher, anything after that is undefined behavior (at least in my opinion)
Stephen
Oct 31, 2017 02:49
@NathanMerrill you want them to pick ones that are hard, but not impossible, to write. If it was last, it would be over soon, and that would be no fun.
