Layers in MS paint have been a thing for at least two weeks I think

Oct 31, 2023 17:01

This challenge is also trivial a language like Vyxal I think

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 17:01

In some cases, maybe -- but for Python specifically, I think it's not particularly interesting

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:59

Yeah, that's fair -- I also think that's okay

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:59

Or you could just use the unicode normalization honestly

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:58

print('lambd\141 print exec'), since that doesn't contain lambda print exec as a substring

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:55

(Since both stdin/stdout and function input/output are valid code golf solution methods)

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:54

then do print("\'lamb\141')

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:50

(As an attempt to fix the issue mentioned above)

@SandboxPosts I would be interested in seeing if this challenge is too similar -- it's the same idea, except without the scoring metric and by forbidding substrings instead of character sets

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:49

It's funny that three people came up with the same challenge idea within a few weeks of each other

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 16:48

@noodleman It's fine, lol, I just wanted to know that happened -- I don't need anything from you :)

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 15:07

At least I know it's not a case of inadvertent duplication because noodle man commented on my sandbox submission

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 15:06

@noodleman

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 15:05

I guess he decided it was either long enough that it had been abandoned, or that the addition of a scoring metric made it distinct enough that it was a separate challenge

97.100.97.109

Oct 31, 2023 15:04

So, uh, noodle man's most recent challenge is almost identical to one of the challenges I proposed in the sandbox a few days ago...?

Someone downvoted it but didn't explain why

97.100.97.109

Apr 12, 2023 16:13

Does anyone have any comments on this proposed challenge? codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/25674/113573

97.100.97.109

Does codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/259037/guess-the-array count as restricted-complexity?

97.100.97.109

codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/a/25064/113573 Has a challenge like this been done before?

Sort of a boring choice IMO

97.100.97.109

I've spent the past 20-30 minutes just scrolling through

@Seggan Why serif?

97.100.97.109

Feb 3, 2023 16:28

Yes

97.100.97.109

Feb 3, 2023 16:27

Hm yes, very different colors

Other places say burgundy and claret

97.100.97.109

Feb 3, 2023 16:25

@Seggan maroon, maybe?

97.100.97.109

@lyxal Edited.

@mathcat I add a print statement to the code, but nothing is printed

I've been trying to run vyxal locally in order to debug for #1570, but I'm having issues

97.100.97.109

Jan 31, 2023 02:09

muffled help

97.100.97.109

Jan 31, 2023 00:40

Depends on how many more I find :P

97.100.97.109

Jan 30, 2023 23:40

That's what I would guess as well, but for some reason I can't find any quotes from administration saying that

97.100.97.109

Jan 30, 2023 23:37

It might be a shortened version of 'trailblazer', but nobody really knows what it means

97.100.97.109

Jan 30, 2023 23:29

I'm not sure I want to, this is funny

97.100.97.109

Shifting gears again: Is there a way to include functions in the documentation tests?

97.100.97.109

Jan 30, 2023 16:36

I think that the names I suggested are bad, but just wanted to say them

97.100.97.109

Jan 30, 2023 16:25

Also, "Vyxplainer"

97.100.97.109

My brain is not good

97.100.97.109

Jan 30, 2023 16:16

My brain generated the portmanteau "Vyxcalibur" and I needed to get it out of my head

97.100.97.109

Jan 30, 2023 03:59

@emanresuA True, I should have filtered those out

97.100.97.109

go blazers
