probably more than half of the "other" are of the kind you describe
Sep 12, 2020 09:33
30 of them are "too many comments (auto)", 24 of them are "other", and 14 of them are comment flags
Sep 12, 2020 09:29
i have had basically no time to handle flags since the other mods resigned (for unrelated life reasons)
Sep 12, 2020 09:28
there are 68 right now

surely answers should follow the specification as it's currently written - is there not precedent in the form of edits that invalidate answers taking advantage of unintentional loopholes?

@Jonah because of scoping -- the yy variable only exists within the pipe

@Pavel unclear
Jan 3, 2020 08:33
from what i understand it hasn't been decided yet
Jan 3, 2020 08:33
@Fatalize not necessarily
Dec 31, 2019 01:30
@LuisMendo no worries!
Dec 19, 2019 13:48
done
Dec 18, 2019 18:27
it did not occur to me that the trivial solution would just work
Dec 18, 2019 18:26
yeah, i probably should use it more often
Dec 18, 2019 18:26
@flawr lol
Dec 9, 2019 17:34
of course :P
Dec 9, 2019 16:56
sure :)
Dec 9, 2019 16:48
indeed
Dec 9, 2019 16:20
@flawr i'm good friends with alex now and we've met up in person a few times
Dec 3, 2019 18:38

Oct 25, 2019 17:35
ah
Oct 25, 2019 17:33
in the middle of something right now but i'll look over it more closely in a bit
Oct 25, 2019 17:33
@ngn from skimming it, at least one part of the description is wrong (adjectives come after nouns, not before) @cairdcoinheringaahing
Oct 23, 2019 17:33
@DJMcMayhem string literals can contain newlines, yes
Oct 23, 2019 17:25
ah
Oct 23, 2019 17:25
but it still produces the correct output :P
Oct 23, 2019 17:25
this just concatenates the empty string with that giant block of text with the empty string
Oct 23, 2019 17:24
@DJMcMayhem lol, ruby doesn't have a special meaning for """
Oct 23, 2019 17:08
@DJMcMayhem it seems like seeded prngs break this challenge
Oct 14, 2019 17:32

@mbomb007 refusing to use someone's pronouns isn't respectful
Oct 8, 2019 16:59
@ArBo you can shorten this by abusing a gcc implementation detail
Oct 4, 2019 19:50
woah, javascript has native arbitrary precision integers now?
Oct 4, 2019 19:30
not that i can find
Oct 4, 2019 19:18
hmm... now all challenges that involve printing an uncountable set are impossible
Oct 4, 2019 18:35
@JohnDvorak just output {{1,2,3,4,... and claim that once it's done with that one it'll output the rest :)

@Fatalize publishing the transcripts would be personally harmful to several people. lots of the discussion was very personal and the people who participated did so under the assumption of privacy.

@curiousdannii huh, really? i'm 95% sure that i've been "taught" this at some point in an english class
Oct 25, 2019 19:42
prescriptively the latter, but both are correct
Oct 25, 2019 19:36
predicate nominative :P
Oct 25, 2019 19:35
