Ninjatron: the only company to give me an offer were all ex-googlers
Ninjatron: i am applying to companies far weaker, but get rejected anyway
Wontonimo: do you dress perfectly ordinarily? Like a typical middle aged office worker who has no individuality?
Wontonimo: or do you have anything that shows your individuality or culture?
Ninjatron: i mean all interviews are virtual nowadays, never had an in office interview
Wontonimo: video?
Ninjatron: yes
Wontonimo: and how about my question about dress?
Ninjatron: i tried to dress like i cared, a nice shirt and that's all they see anyway
StraumliPerversion: Are you a sociopath?
Ninjatron: nowadays i do the opposite since i started to think everything i do must be wrong :D
Ninjatron: i just wear a sweatshirt
Ninjatron: lol am I socipath? what kind of socipath would say "yes" :D
Wontonimo: oh, that's StraumliPerversion, he may just be asking his other personality
Wontonimo: or me
Wontonimo: who knows really
Wontonimo: well, sorry to hear about your job prospects.
StraumliPerversion: more of a schizoid, but yeah.
Ninjatron: yes, well idc that much anymore, at this point learning all that i can and will build a company myself
MrZee: As a fellow sociopath I could welcome you to the society
MrZee: That's kind of my mindset now, I've been trying to get into game design for years so I've decided I'm just going to start making my own games
Ninjatron: well, games make no money generally
MrZee: Kickstarters do lol
Ninjatron: lol and never deliver
Ninjatron: "give me money i will build you an infinitely open sandbox world by myself, i need $65.000"
Ninjatron: :D
MrZee: I don't remember if it was Kickstarter or Gofundme, but somebody made a complete game and then opened a kickstarter just saying "buy me a pizza for building this game" and got like over $10,000 from backers lol
Ninjatron: i want to checkout man, i am tired of this nonsense, i don't want to ever apply for a job $10000 isn't enough for that
StraumliPerversion: if it helps, you'll probably be dead in 100 years.
Ninjatron: yeah, imagining to probability of being alive past 2100s did make me feel good
MrZee: I'm somewhere between the "At least I'll be dead before long" and the "I wish I could be immortal and learn all of the things" mentalities
MrZee: I might be a lich, idk
Ninjatron: that sounds defeatist
Ninjatron: i want to embarrass a lot of people really
StraumliPerversion: I'm starting to guess the problem is you talk too much in the interview.
Ninjatron: i tried it all
Ninjatron: talk a lot, don't talk a lot, only answer questions, pretend i love collaboration, pretend i am an individual contributor
therealbeef: don't beat yourself up too much; many interviewers don't know how to interview. Especially HR people
Ninjatron: yes, i don't really beat myself up, i just accepted there is no justice. i will build my own thing.
multii: hi
antiwonto: [automated] 'hi' was defined as ' A common salutation for those who are short of words ' by Wontonimo
MrZee: Seems legit
lord8080: I'm practicing here for an interview, I haven't code in a bit more than a year and I'm a bit rusty
java_coffee_cup: Depends on what u'r interviewing. Not everyone needs to code.
lord8080: it's for backend development
YS_Yousef: MrZee
MrZee: msg/ YS_Yousef
MrZee: Doh, that didn't work lol
MrZee: Oh I guess I misunderstood that purple text was a private message lol
MrZee: What's up?
YS_Yousef: good
YS_Yousef: I think i will remove the comments from my solution because without them my code 30 with them my code 78
YS_Yousef: line*
MrZee: You could add the comments to the same lines as the code
YS_Yousef: oh yea thx i didn't think in this XD
MrZee: No problem lol
YS_Yousef: ok nice i edited it now and it is 35 line nice
MrZee: Nice, mine is super long lmao
YS_Yousef: XD
Andriamanitra: o god python people come up with some terrible code
Andriamanitra: i don't like how it makes you choose one or the other in the review thingy
MrZee: I can't judge lol, my code is never clean
Husoski: The weird thing is that sometimes neither of the choices to judge are among the published solutions. I wonder what that's all about...
Uljahn: you can just skip it
JohntheHacker: hi
JohntheHacker: hello?
JohntheHacker: :grinning:
derjack: :upside_down:
Thorcode: hi JohntheHacker
Thorcode: how can I find the current puzzle of the week
Ronins: Hello
Thorcode: hi
Ronins: I am new to code in game
Thorcode: ok
Ronins: nice guy
Thorcode: thx
Ronins: What now
Thorcode: what you want to do bruh
Ronins: You want to fight
5DN1L: Calm down
5DN1L: https://www.codingame.com/playgrounds/40701/help-center/code-of-conduct
Ronins: You again
Thorcode: well I'm fighting with him 5d XD
5DN1L: You do it in your private chat channel
5DN1L: not World chat
Thorcode: yeah
Thorcode: I talked to him
Thorcode: and how can't I see the current puzzle of the week
5DN1L: it's now become an event
5DN1L: go to ACTIVITIES
5DN1L: then EVENTS
5DN1L: and JOIN
Ronins: I know that
Thorcode: ah okay
Thorcode: I just know that
apcoder: guys suggestions for learning graph, tree data structures
Thorcode: because I'm trying the coin guessing game
Ronins: Go to your private chat
YS_Yousef: coin guessing game was ez right?
5DN1L: Ronins stop being disruptive or I'll kick you out
YS_Yousef: what is disruptive?
MrZee: apcoder, I've been taking a udemy course on pathfinding and someone on this site also recommended redblobgames.com to me
apcoder: Thanks!! I'll look into it
YS_Yousef: I have a question i am in a game and the question say fil all bits of a number don't flip leading zeros and 1001 become 0110 how?
YS_Yousef: flip*
5DN1L: what do you mean by "how"?
Uljahn: replace 0 with 2, then 1 with 0, then 2 with 1 :upside_down:
YS_Yousef: i mean with how that this is not real 1001 become 1001
YS_Yousef: if flip it
Uljahn: or xor with 1111
YS_Yousef: ok thx bro
5DN1L: ah you thought flip was like mirror image / palindrome-flip
YS_Yousef: yea
5DN1L: usually flipping the bits means 0 becomes 1 and 1 becomes 0, like flipping a switch
YS_Yousef: ok thx i solved it
5DN1L: :clap:
Hackker: :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: amazing
YS_Yousef: what is the amazing bro
Hackker: for solving the problem
Idk.-_-: hi :)
Idk.-_-: somone has any idea for ASCII Art puzzle ?
5DN1L: What's your idea so far
Idk.-_-: i mea'n help :D
5DN1L: i mean you have to think first before asking for help
Idk.-_-: i know
Idk.-_-: but i can't think
Sl0ppy: i need help translating smth to eng :D
Sl0ppy: for clash contribution :D
5DN1L: what's that smth
Idk.-_-: how can i pick for example e in row ?
Sl0ppy: i'll give roughly the situoation i'm in
5DN1L: Idk.-_- use maths
Idk.-_-: index number ?
Sl0ppy: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/f95febba-b9c9-4a80-b0cf-83ee3b7f2257
Sl0ppy: what is _________
Sl0ppy: in my language we say "received"
Sl0ppy: but i don't think it works for eng
Idk.-_-: i'm terrible at mat :(((
Idk.-_-: math
5DN1L: Sl0ppy which is the product of m and p? or which is obtained by multiplying m and p?
5DN1L: obtained/calculated
5DN1L: arrived at
Sl0ppy: obtained sounds cool
Sl0ppy: cause iu pretty much have to apply a function over and over again until u arrive at a single digit number
5DN1L: oh, looks like the multiplication version of sum of digits
Sl0ppy: kinda
Sl0ppy: i'll submit it soon
5DN1L: ok
Sl0ppy: but pretty much u "need" to find n!
Sl0ppy: and then keep summing the sum of sum of digits, etc
Sl0ppy: until u arrive at 1 digit
Sl0ppy: and i smh have to express that in "output"
5DN1L: i'll take a look when you've submitted it
Sl0ppy: Line 1: A number less than 10, obtained by continuously applying digit sum starting from n!
Sl0ppy: how does that sound
5DN1L: erm, i think you make your contribution WIP first
5DN1L: then i'll comment from there
Sl0ppy: :D
5DN1L: Idk.-_- do you know anything about ascii values?
5DN1L: if not, google and take a look
Uljahn: also there are some hints on the left
Idk.-_-: you min ord ?
5DN1L: yup
Idk.-_-: mean
Idk.-_-: damn it :D
5DN1L: never mind, i know what you min :P
Idk.-_-: xD
Idk.-_-: so ord of E is 69
5DN1L: yup, then do some y=ax+b stuff
Sl0ppy: i submitted it
Sl0ppy: and i'm going 4 lunch
Sl0ppy: i'll check ur review later
Uljahn: that solution :joy:

Idk.-_-: hmmm
Idk.-_-: still confused xD
Idk.-_-: E index is will be print(row[16:20]) but i dont know how
Idk.-_-: calculate it
Uljahn: use width and index
5DN1L: Idk.-_- start from a, b, c... find a pattern
codefrero: how can i learn phyton?
5DN1L: you learn by reading and practising
codefrero: wtf ahahahaha
Moduus: 5DN1L "A hero we don't deserve, but a hero we need"
5DN1L: Why that quote?
Idk.-_-: i think E ined in abcde is 4 becuase starts from 0 and 4*4 = 16 and 4*5 = 20 right or wrong ? :D
Uljahn: ye, almost
Moduus: Just reading the questions on this chat while doing puzzles and appreciate the energy :smile:
5DN1L: true lol
5DN1L: energy required
5DN1L: brain juice required
derjack: brain runs more efficiently on ketones [solved]
5DN1L: ketones are inflammable, hence brainburn 🔥
5DN1L: Automaton2000 how's your database doing?
Automaton2000: it is different from the test cases in clash of code
YS_Yousef: ?
YS_Yousef: Automaton2000 how's your database doing?
Automaton2000: i am trying to create a contest
YS_Yousef: BRUH
YS_Yousef: Automaton2000 hello
Automaton2000: did you check out the source code is available
YS_Yousef: idk
MrZee: Man it looks like only 4 other people solved the Coin Guessing game in C# for this event lol, there's so few C# coders left it seems
YS_Yousef: i am a c# coder
MrZee: YS_Yousef :taco:

eulerscheZahl: test
eulerscheZahl: that one worked recently
ssMoody: test1

Wontonimo: once antiwonto goes over its limit, it will sleep for 1 hour and then be fully recharged.
Wontonimo: you can tell when it goes to sleep because it appends [sleeping] to its last message
eulerscheZahl: oh, i thought it was defined by a sleeping struct
Wontonimo: lol
NeelD31: how do i get rid of the template code when i play clash of code
eulerscheZahl: crtl+A, del
struct: ^
Wontonimo: ^^
NeelD31: ik that
NeelD31: but i want to keep some of it
NeelD31: but not all of it
Wontonimo: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
NeelD31: is there a setting to change the template at the start
struct: no
**eulerscheZahl laughs at you
Wontonimo: just change it, using like your mouse and keyboard
NeelD31: anyone knows what the OUCC is?
eulerscheZahl: our universal coding contest
struct: did you want to change how inputs read?
Calastian: :grimacing:
Calastian: Sometimes I just wanna learn a new language without having to search through thousands of tutorials without proper documentation
Calastian: T_T
Calastian: IDK where to start
Astrobytes: then look up the official language docs
Astrobytes: If you know one language you can surely pick up another quickly, assuming no major difference wrt paradigm or whatever
Calastian: Thanks!~
struct: still no art for the contest :thinking:
struct: I guess 3D is hard to draw
ninjadip: 4d is even harder
Astrobytes: Time/resources issue I would assume
Magmi: What is your rank on codeforces?
eulerscheZahl: don't they hire external artists for contest covers?
Astrobytes: They were doing so at some point, not sure about these days
struct: no graphics needed its text based
eulerscheZahl: there's Gabi, I know she did the OoC font
Astrobytes: lol struct, at least the 'viewer' would be stable
struct: I only have viewer problems on mad pod racing
Astrobytes: I haven't checked any recently
struct: also on bit runner old replays dont seem to work
struct: its around 1 year old
struct: https://www.codingame.com/replay/537205979
struct: it only seem to bug on nulte replays
struct: Maybe im doing something
struct: ah I think I know
eulerscheZahl: the game knows that no one wants to see a squiddy victory
struct: No
struct: It was me
struct: I can break the replay on purpouse
struct: :)
struct: I forgot to report it
struct: cout << "EXPERT " << angle << " " << thrust << " ;" << endl;
struct: The " ;"
struct: breaks the replay
struct: Yes this was intentional by me at the time
eulerscheZahl: illedan fix it
eulerscheZahl: and disclose the boss code
Astrobytes: :smirk:
eulerscheZahl: wait, un-disclose
eulerscheZahl: what's the opposite?
Astrobytes: hide?
struct: I wonder if this works in any other multi
eulerscheZahl: thanks :)
eulerscheZahl: any other with a broken input parse i'd say
struct: im surprised it only broke the replay

NicolasDiniz: :taco: SylvJalb
NicolasDiniz: thx
struct: is antiwonto still sleeping?
struct: Will your puzzle be like this forever now?
struct: https://i.imgur.com/3O0aw1V.png
eulerscheZahl: i have no idea
eulerscheZahl: but given the rating that's about as close to 4 as to 5 stars, it might be better that way
eulerscheZahl: there are contributions of mine (tower dereference) where I understand a poor rating. minesweeper isn't one of these
struct: yeah the game is a perfect copy
eulerscheZahl: including all the annoyances (random guessing)
**darkhorse64 whispers: make an optim out of it
struct: euler is retired now
eulerscheZahl: how should that look like? solve as many boards as you can in 600 frames?
eulerscheZahl: when you solve one (or fail), it restarts with a fresh board
struct: Multiple boards at once and with restarts
eulerscheZahl: and you play on all simultaneously?
darkhorse64: solve 50 boards: for each board, your score is the number of revealed cells + the number of correctly guessed mines + bonus if you solved the leve
struct: yes
darkhorse64: level
struct: darkhorse I havent forgotten ataxx
struct: Im just doing onitama atm
eulerscheZahl: i'm just not sure if there's enough room for an optim
struct: Should take me a few more days
darkhorse64: I have not even started a bot for it: do not worry
eulerscheZahl: i think it's not that hard to get near perfect play, random has a stronger effect than your algo
struct: I dont think it would be enough for an optim
eulerscheZahl: topcoder had a minesweeper optim a while ago
eulerscheZahl: instead of giving mine count for direct neighbors, they used a larger range around the cell
darkhorse64: Depending on your algo, you can strongly increase your success rate
eulerscheZahl: but they also do 2k validators for a stable ranking at the end
struct: whats a good success 20% of submits pass?
eulerscheZahl: of course i can increase the success rate. but at some point it's as good as it can get. and i think that point isn't that hard to reach
eulerscheZahl: when i made it, i ran it 10 times and passed half of them
eulerscheZahl: didn't bother doing more runs
eulerscheZahl: and my solver can be improved
darkhorse64: My last try was 40% on 50 runs
struct: wow
darkhorse64: I can also see clearly that you fail later on average when you improve your bot
eulerscheZahl: for an optim you would still need an extra twist or you get another TSP-like game
eulerscheZahl: dbdr, also using concorde for that score?
darkhorse64: Yeah, I finally gave it a one star despite approving it :sob:
eulerscheZahl: won't do much, far above the limit of 2.5(?) for garbage collection
darkhorse64: at least for MS, you have to write your own solver
struct: MS?
struct: and minesweepr
eulerscheZahl: mines sweeper
struct: ah*
dbdr: eulerscheZahl no, home made and offline
darkhorse64: There are still lots of people at 3M score, I hope they downvote it
eulerscheZahl: oh, well done then
dbdr: it's unfortunate the scores are rounded
struct: ill try it with pen and paper
darkhorse64: dbdr has the DIY spirit
dbdr: and of course that there are solvers, I agree it should have been modified slightly
dbdr: did some people admit to using concorde?
eulerscheZahl: i'm pretty sure that westicles did. no idea on tric trac
eulerscheZahl: i used concorde too to achieve my score
eulerscheZahl: but set 10000 - dist for each edge
eulerscheZahl: then it was pretty slow as it's not the standard euclidian TSP with heuristics anymore. so i disabled some time costing features
5DN1L: I wrote a random shuffle code without heuristics to give 1 star
struct: so on that puzzle I need to submit but on others I dont?
struct: to rate
struct: ah I dont
struct: was just in cache I think
struct: you only need to press play my code to rate a puzzle
5DN1L: oh really? i don't know that
5DN1L: but it's ok to submit that code anyway lol
eulerscheZahl: it's enough to play in the IDE to vote
5DN1L: just for giggles
darkhorse64: 0 1 2 .... 0 solves the puzzle
Stray-spirit: what do I do when the validators says that I fail but I did everything right in the puzzle?
eulerscheZahl: share the code + puzzle link
eulerscheZahl: you can paste it right here in the chat
Stray-spirit: there is a way to share the puzzle + code in the same link?
dbdr: no
eulerscheZahl: paste your code directly into the chat
eulerscheZahl: and paste the URL so we know what you try to solve
Stray-spirit: ok
ninjadip: i thought guessing what they were talking about is the fun
ninjadip: lol

Stray-spirit: https://www.codingame.com/training/easy/temperatures
eulerscheZahl: temperatures
eulerscheZahl: damn, too slow it typing. but i guessed it
Stray-spirit: yeah
Stray-spirit: the test cases give me all right
Stray-spirit: but when I submit it only gives me 90%
dbdr: there is a bug in your code
Astrobytes: impossible! :P
eulerscheZahl: but dd you spot where?
ninjadip: yes
dbdr: I thought I did, but in fact no. the code is just more complicated that it needs to
jrke: it fails at 5526 the reason is you have set -273 as LL so for all reasons its abs value is smaller than 5526
eulerscheZahl: good point
eulerscheZahl: only large positive and no negative breaks it
jrke: just change it to some small value < -5526 i mean
jrke: it will work
struct: he is right yeah
eulerscheZahl: change b to some even smaller value (doesn't matter if theoretically impossible)
struct: custom testcase returns -273 for 5526
eulerscheZahl: i'm rusty at typing :(
dbdr: practice by coding in rust ;)
Stray-spirit: but first I sepparate positive numbers from negative ones
eulerscheZahl: nah, busy with Blazor these days
struct: Stray-spirit the problem is that if the only input is a positive number higher than 273
struct: it will return -273
dbdr: what's blazor?
Stray-spirit: oooo
struct: C# for web or something like that
Stray-spirit: I get it now
dbdr: \o/
eulerscheZahl: exactly: C# web framework. i'm building a website at work
Stray-spirit: btw any tip to improve the code?
TimberStalker: Blazor is the .net framework for web that compiles to WASM
struct: Stray-spirit you can check others solutions
eulerscheZahl: except if you use server-side blazor
struct: after you submit with 100%
dbdr: 201,385 :)
TimberStalker: Im just differentiating for ASP.Net
TimberStalker: from*
Stray-spirit: good to know, I will do that now thx
eulerscheZahl: hooray, a new leader
Astrobytes: on..?
dbdr: https://www.codingame.com/multiplayer/optimization/travelling-salesman/leaderboard
Astrobytes: oh.. that
jrke: why the nodes count are too low in that?
jrke: 300 only
Astrobytes: also hi dbdr, been a while
Astrobytes: same for jrke
dbdr: why do I feel the dedain even in your writing Astrobytes? :D
jrke: hey astrobyte
jrke: s
Astrobytes: jrke: read the forum post ;)
Astrobytes: dbdr: lol, was I that obvious? :D
dbdr: yep :D
eulerscheZahl: neither me nor the dictionary know "dedain". but i missed you too
Astrobytes: *disdain
dbdr: disdain
eulerscheZahl: i ever wrote to your company email address, not sure if you saw it
dbdr: eulerscheZahl check your french dictionary ;)
eulerscheZahl: even*
dbdr: I saw that on discord :D
dbdr: but not reading that email
jrke: wow for TSP source code is also downloadable (cherry on the cake)
dbdr: it's always good to have referee code
Astrobytes: It is what it is, since the author didn't want to modify his idea it will stay as it is.
I was tempted to create the variant we suggested but I lost motivation fairly quickly.
Astrobytes: afk 5 minutes
dbdr: definitely would have been better :(
eulerscheZahl: https://i.imgur.com/AlRtHu7.png
(did it in the contribution so it won't show up on the leaderboard)
dbdr: yeah, I'm looking for the last solution to get that score :)
eulerscheZahl: i might even be in on creating that variant if you manage to motivate me
eulerscheZahl: did you know that this score is possible?
dbdr: yes, I ran the online concorde to see what scores it gets, I just don't use the solutions
eulerscheZahl: i have the offline version since http://www.hacker.org/oneofus/
ABD_RRAHIM00: i m bad programmer :frowning2:
dbdr: when concorde says Optimal Solution, it seems to imply it proved optimality, right?
eulerscheZahl: proven optimal for integers
eulerscheZahl: it floors or rounds the distances before solving
dbdr: yes, and it has maximum edge length too :)
eulerscheZahl: that's why I *100'ed everything
dbdr: *100 fails for the first one I think
eulerscheZahl: i also figured that max edge length ;)
eulerscheZahl: aah, that's why i didn't get anything out of the 5 nodes
eulerscheZahl: but that was easy enough to solve
dbdr: yeah
dbdr: * 10 works
dbdr: got it! \o/

struct: episode 1?
ArcadeRaider: yup
ninjadip: especially when the gas is a bigger factor
ninjadip: or fuel
struct: have you tried the hints on the left side?
struct: they will spoil the solution
ninjadip: what is your mars lander doing wrong that you need to fix?
ArcadeRaider: it was going to fast, and the hint helps
ninjadip: have logic that evaluates the horiz and vert momentum
FreezeFlare: been so long
Pollard_Rho_Algorithm: codingame
ninjadip: i had a sweet-spot buffer of velocity that i would neither steer towards or counter steer
struct: your mars landers is heuristic based ninjadip?
ninjadip: but maybe have something if horiz_velocity< threshold then increase velocity towards target, if too fast then counter steer, but don't have it flip flop between the two, have a good coast range in the middle
ninjadip: yes
ninjadip: hopefully that makes sense
ninjadip: if too slow and so far from landing zone, increase speed and angle, if too fast counter steer with thrust to slow until desired momentum is reached
ninjadip: how did u solve it struct
struct: I didnt
struct: Never tried it
ninjadip: ah
ninjadip: lol
struct: I dont enjoy puzzles that much
ninjadip: i never read any of the hints or forums
ninjadip: so idk how everyone else did it
ninjadip: i love them
ninjadip: probably why i like zelda so much
ninjadip: been investing time again in botw
struct: botw?
struct: ah breath of the wild
struct: or w/e its called
ninjadip: solving the mars lander with fuel optimization is fun and scary to watch as none of the landings are perfect but everyone survives lol
Idk.-_-: hi everyone
ninjadip: yes breath of the wild, botw
struct: hi
Idk.-_-: can some one look at this code and say what is wrong ?
Idk.-_-: print(row[z.index(a)*l:z.index(a)*h],end="")
ninjadip: idk
Idk.-_-: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/271959b9-0c23-463f-990d-a4b66010d129
Idk.-_-: ascii art puzzle
5DN1L: why *l and *h
Idk.-_-: 4*4 = 16 4*5 = 20 row[16:20]
Idk.-_-: 4 is E index number
Idk.-_-: abcde
01234
5DN1L: is h always l + 1?
5DN1L: l is width and h is height
Idk.-_-: no
Idk.-_-: :D
5DN1L: don't know why how you can mix them that way :shrug:
5DN1L: why and* how
Idk.-_-: is whole code wrong ?
5DN1L: do you feel happier if i said it's partially correct? :upside_down:
Idk.-_-: 100%
Idk.-_-: i'm thinking for this code whole day :D
5DN1L: and you still have to deal with the cases of lowercase letters and symbols
Ninjatron: is there a path for a total noob to follow?
ninjadip: the path of the ninja
ninjadip: is it is silent, but deadly
Ninjatron: my cousin asked for a resource and i consider recommending this
Uljahn: just stop being a noob [solved]
5DN1L: agreed
Ninjatron: oh i forgot that most engineers don't have a good sense of humor, thanks for reminding me that guys
Ninjatron: :D
ninjadip: is noob>boob?
eulerscheZahl: in lexicographic sorting: yes
struct: euler you must add card dlc to onitama
eulerscheZahl: with loot boxes?
Ninjatron: but damn i asked a serious question
Ninjatron: :D
struct: dont forget nfts
eulerscheZahl: NFTs are total nonsense. you don't even own the object, just a link to it
struct: shhh
eulerscheZahl: CG is probably not the best place for a total beginner
eulerscheZahl: others recommend a different site but i keep forgetting the name
struct: code academy?
eulerscheZahl: some mix-up of code and academy, yes
eulerscheZahl: i don't know whether it's good or not. when i got into coding, i neither had a stable internet nor that fluency in English
Ninjatron: it was pro anyway i recommended learnpythonorg
Ninjatron: NFTs are total nonsense you say
Ninjatron: I said the same thing about crypto coins
struct: that means you are wrong twice
Ninjatron: see you must be reasonably intelligent guy if that's your argument
eulerscheZahl: they still have a purpose at least
eulerscheZahl: for NFTs i can't see any
Ninjatron: reasonably intelligent guys generally do not know how many idiots are there out in the wild
Ninjatron: so we are wrong again and again
Ninjatron: you could say the exact same thing for NFTs
Ninjatron: it is a store of value
Ninjatron: it doesn't have an intrinsic value
struct: avx?
struct: maybe I can make some avx nfts
Ninjatron: so, almost a millenia ago, a Mongolian ruler wanted to use paper money
Ninjatron: he was able to get away with a lot of oppressive policies, in Middle East
Ninjatron: but even him could not make people accept using paper instead of gold or silver
Ninjatron: yet people use it every day today and no one questions "wait a minute why do i value a piece of paper"
Ninjatron: so he had to drop paper currency idea
jacek: avx in onitama?
struct: ofc jacek 8x games at once
struct: Ninjatron I think the main problem is that its a new thing and there is a lot of shady stuff already
struct: jacek do you rely on auto vectorization for your NNs?
jacek: yes
jacek: im too dumb to vectorize myself
jacek: probably could get some tiny speed using int16 and int8
struct: its simpler than it looks
Ninjatron: my point is; do not always rely on your intelligence to figure something
Ninjatron: sometimes just observing idiots is a better signal for where the future is headed
Ninjatron: :D
Ninjatron: it took me a long time to realize this
struct: I see your point
Idk.-_-: stucked with this puzzle
5DN1L: get on with the next one then
Idk.-_-: should i use if statements ?
5DN1L: yes
struct: depends on what you are doing
struct: I try to avoid them
Idk.-_-: for example if abcdef not in word
add ?
5DN1L: yes
jacek: use only gotos [solved]
ImanolSaga: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/d132c453-7b75-48ff-a714-ac9669268f49
ImanolSaga: where is my fail in that python code??
Idk.-_-: "voro = []
voro = []
RajdeepBiswas: 18 days remaining, please validate: https://www.codingame.com/contribute/view/812091704a338629b4fb9109cb14e2247bf2
thanks :)
ImanolSaga: voro= [] is declaring empty list
Idk.-_-: print("len(voro)= "+str(len(voro)))"
is wrong
ImanolSaga: the first " and the last " is not in the original code
ImanolSaga: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/7f931af5-8ba9-4650-86dd-f8d67f383ce8
Idk.-_-: ah
Uljahn: indentation looks messed up
struct: what does voro[-1] do?
struct: on py3?
Idk.-_-: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/15b8c939-3442-4143-aa62-85268ea0c58e
Uljahn: last element
struct: I see
StraumliPerversion: so new accounts can't chat, right? I wonder if Blaise has any more old smurfs
Uljahn: i think some new accounts have no chat due to A/B testing
ImanolSaga: okey thanks guys, was an indentation problem, its solved
Alegator: num = int(input())
print ("Lucky")
Idk.-_-: i gave up :((
5DN1L: take a break
5DN1L: get back to it another time
ninjadip: try another problem
Idk.-_-: i feel like a real idiot
ninjadip: i think we all do, periodically
5DN1L: yup
Idk.-_-: all of this effrot was for nothing
ninjadip: def not
ninjadip: you learned
ninjadip: results and learning are independent
vinnie_rinella: s
Wontonimo: i thew a ball 10 times and I still can't strike out a pro batter. flip table and give up
vinnie_rinella: how the fuck do i do this
Wontonimo: language vinnie
vinnie_rinella: ok
Wontonimo: have you done the tutorial ?
vinnie_rinella: yea buy im stuck on the pod thing
Wontonimo: how stuck?
Wontonimo: i love the pod thing, i can give you a hand
vinnie_rinella: im tyring to make it do the angle thing and its not working
Wontonimo: ?? you don't need to do any angle thing in wood 2
Wontonimo: just aim straight at the x,y
vinnie_rinella: ?
vinnie_rinella: its telling me to do that
vinnie_rinella: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/3a18d171-b6fb-405b-933e-19a31e0695a8
Wontonimo: just use thrust 100
vinnie_rinella: ok
Wontonimo: who's telling you to do that?
vinnie_rinella: the game
Wontonimo: oh, right
jacek: so, write it in your language
vinnie_rinella: ok
Wontonimo: yo antiwonto
Wontonimo: ;( sleeping i guess
Wontonimo: yo antiwonto, wake up!
antiwonto: [automated] hey Wontonimo. I'm a bot :robot:
jacek: so is Automaton2000 or not
Automaton2000: it's just a matter of fact
jacek: :taco: Automaton2000
antiwonto: [automated] jacek has awarded Automaton2000 10 tacos. Automaton2000 now has 51 taco. jacek now has 68 taco
Automaton2000: puzzle of the week ?
jacek: :(
Automaton2000: no idea what to do with it
struct: tomorrow is the day
jacek: twosday is today
jacek: twoday even
Wontonimo: "The day" ? I thought tomorrow was "a day"
**ninjadip trades in tacos for pizza slices
antiwonto: I'm disappointed in you ninjadip :unamused:
jacek: :upside_down:
antiwonto: [automated] ':upside_down:' was defined as ' ɥǝllo ' by jacek
ninjadip: tacos are worthless when you're married to a latina
Wontonimo: maybe food preferences will be added in the future ninjadip
ninjadip: lol
ninjadip: idc
Wontonimo: and an exchange rate, dictated by market forces
ninjadip: bored, workin on the coin prob
ninjadip: or by how hungry someone is
Wontonimo: i got bored of it and wandered off
Wontonimo: tried to do it in javascript and got frustrated with 2d arrays in js.
ninjadip: thought you would like the constraint part
Wontonimo: yeah, i do!
Uljahn: 2D arrays in coin puzzle?
Wontonimo: yeah, it is a matrix reduction. one axis is odd, the other even,
Wontonimo: and you are resolving to identity
ninjadip: oh idk
ninjadip: that sounds familiar
Uljahn: hmm, guess i'll do it with numpy
Durkin: Shoot, okay, really dumb question: If I accidentally had code open on 2 different computers, then wrote on compA and closed it down without 'testing in arena', is there any way to get the code back? Wasn't much, but I came back to compB and just overrode the changes when its page auto-refreshed.
Wontonimo: yeah, numpy would be easy
Wontonimo: it is in your history. open the ide
Wontonimo: on the left hand side there is a "history"
Wontonimo: click that, and you'll see all the code you "send to arena"
Durkin: Ah, only hit "Play my Code". Damn, oh well.
Wontonimo: how were you approaching the puzzle Uljahn ?
Uljahn: i was thinking on how to utilize numpy
Uljahn: so basically no progress so far
Wontonimo: i have't solved it either, so don't take the 2d matrix thing as gospel
darkhorse64: guys, take it easy. Just implement the statement algorithm and you are done
ninjadip: i'm doing constraints
ninjadip: seems like it should work
darkhorse64: it does
ninjadip: darkhorse64 i know, but they don't
Wontonimo: what's the statement algorithm?
darkhorse64: in the three coins example
Idk.-_-: how can i use condition if all of them is in for loop ?
jacek: take example inputs and outputs, create NN, learn on those, ???, profit
ninjadip: nn?
Idk.-_-: no i mean if all of them is 1
Wontonimo: :taco: Jacek
Wontonimo: :taco: jacek
antiwonto: [automated] Wontonimo has awarded jacek 10 tacos. jacek now has 78 taco. Wontonimo now has 139 taco
Wontonimo: i have no idea what you could mean Idk.-_-
Uljahn: something like all() and any() in python?
Husoski: Is this for the "A Coin Guessing Game" event?
Husoski: Oh, 15 minutes ago it might have been. (sigh)
IllusionSquid: If you do UTTT with MCTS how many visits on your 2nd move?
struct: depends
struct: I get 100k
struct: some people get more
IllusionSquid: 100k visits on your root?
struct: yes
IllusionSquid: What????
IllusionSquid: I struggled to get 3.9k
IllusionSquid: Alright
struct: language?
IllusionSquid: But I did use C# so that is a bottle neck
Wontonimo: that shouldn't be a bottleneck by any means
struct: do you use bitboards?
struct: Do you allocate a memory pool for your nodes at the first turn?
IllusionSquid: Yeah I did use bitboards this time around
IllusionSquid: Yeah I was planning on doing a factory model
IllusionSquid: Not yet
Wontonimo: not really needed. you should be able to get to 20k without factory
Wontonimo: or memory allocation pool
Wontonimo: have you done a profile of your code?
struct: also I rollout all the created nodes when I expand
struct: that also has an impact
IllusionSquid: There is some room for optimization I am aware... But I'll probably rewrite everything in C++ next try.
Wontonimo: nope, it's probably your code, not c#
Wontonimo: are you familiar with branchless programming?
IllusionSquid: Yeah I think you were the one who recomended it to me a month ago
Wontonimo: and data oriented programming
IllusionSquid: Yup
Wontonimo: at 4k nodes, you have some large inefficiencies that can be addressed. It isn't c#
struct: There is plenty of tricks to make it faster
struct: you can check early win during rollout
struct: and stuff like that
struct: but that is not needed yet
Wontonimo: in another persons code i reviewed, they converted the coordinates at every function call instead of first converting the coordinates when erceived from the game
Wontonimo: stuff like that
IllusionSquid: Hmmm perhaps you could look at my code?
I am actually thinking my haven't configured my algorithm good enough
IllusionSquid: But that's besideds the visitcount
Wontonimo: i don't mind taking 10 min to look. send me a link in private chat, not here
jacek: mhm
derjack: UTTT eh? 1ms is enough to get to top gold :v

Sarstan: C#
ninjadip: don't reference the intern movie
RightBackUp: Lmao okay
ninjadip: lmao jk
ninjadip: nice one tho
ninjadip: how long have u been in the field
ninjadip: but as with any interview, research the company, know things that most people don't, current projects/focus, you know.
ninjadip: oh ! i did watch this video just the other day that was made from a guy who claims did thousands of interviews at google
ninjadip: very interesting...
ninjadip: https://youtu.be/LQFsEwcCO1E
ninjadip: *correction 100s of interviews
ninjadip: about leetcode and different things
RightBackUp: Thanks a lot man! I've been coding professionally for over 8 years now
RightBackUp: going for an L5 position, but I don't think I'm ready
ninjadip: i don't know what that is yet, but cool. i'm working towards my degree now
RightBackUp: Lol, you can look it up, if you just look up google L5 engineer salary. it will show you all the tiers and how much money you can make basically. It's good to have an idea
Dmeza: going for L5 position at Google and still helping noobs on codingame
Dmeza: props good sir, major props
Dmeza: what makes you think youre not ready?

UZUHAMA: Hello world
Wontonimo: hiya
UZUHAMA: Lately been lazy on coding :(
UZUHAMA: gotta get back on track
Wontonimo: story of last year for me
UZUHAMA: ok
UZUHAMA: Briefly, I got COVID, started studying C programming, learned few new stuff for programming, aced school exam
Wontonimo: nice
UZUHAMA: not bad, I guess
Wontonimo: about the acing exam. not the covid thing
UZUHAMA: Well, it's like getting a really strong vaccine
Wontonimo: i've not got it. yeah
UZUHAMA: That's still good too
Wontonimo: no it isn't. it's like getting a virus that does long term damage
UZUHAMA: long term?
Wontonimo: yeah!
UZUHAMA: I was sick for only a few days
UZUHAMA: Oh I know
UZUHAMA: Some people do get a long term effects from covid
UZUHAMA: I guess I'm lucky
UZUHAMA: :sunglasses:
Wontonimo: okay, so, if you get lots of little paper cuts or injection sites on one arm. like tons. you'll get scars on that arm. the skin won't completely heal back properly
UZUHAMA: that's true
UZUHAMA: But your skin do gets little bit more tough
Wontonimo: well, viruses reproduce by killing cells and using them to make themselves, and in COVIDs case that is the small sacks in your lungs
Wontonimo: you really think your lungs grow back 100% but your skin doesn't?
Wontonimo: no, there is scar tissue and inappropriate fusing of tissue
Wontonimo: damage is damage
UZUHAMA: oh dang
UZUHAMA: gotta be more careful from now on, I guess
UZUHAMA: By the way
Wontonimo: where as the vaccine makes you feel sick because your body is preparing for a battle, not because there is one. no bad long tterm side effect there
Wontonimo: by the way?
UZUHAMA: um
UZUHAMA: I was going to say
UZUHAMA: Can anyone please do a little check on my code real quick
Wontonimo: code for what?
UZUHAMA: MIME Type
UZUHAMA: I have no idea why it isn't working
UZUHAMA: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/a56399da-012a-418b-b7f1-2f9795e1c27d
UZUHAMA: It's Java
UZUHAMA: Oh I forgot to mention the problem
UZUHAMA: if(key == extension)
statement will never be executed
UZUHAMA: I don't know why
Wontonimo: what is this for?
Wontonimo: in java you have to use the equals
Wontonimo: like so
Wontonimo: if(key.equals(extension)) {
Qwick: did you create a dict for the names or array
UZUHAMA: ...huh
UZUHAMA: Is it some weird hash table stuff
UZUHAMA: oh hell nah...
Wontonimo: the == in java means "is it exactly the same object reference"
UZUHAMA: what??
UZUHAMA: I thought that was ===
UZUHAMA: was it from C or something
UZUHAMA: I'm confused
BibiBobo: Why video isn't working?
Wontonimo: refresh you page BibiBobo
UZUHAMA: Thank you
Wontonimo: np. 2 bitcoin please
UZUHAMA: I would've never find that out on my own
UZUHAMA: lol
Qwick: never
Qwick: me either
Wontonimo: When you grow up and become a god of programming like me, then you'll make that same mistake, spend 2 days on it, then someone will ask you about it the next day and you'll look smart, just like i did
UZUHAMA: oh hahaha
Wontonimo: no, seriously, i knew to look for it because someone i worked with broke something in production 2 days ago with exactly the same error
UZUHAMA: Oh really?
UZUHAMA: one day...
UZUHAMA: I hope it'll come soon
Wontonimo: worked ? i mean i currently work with them. they didn't get fired
UZUHAMA: hmm?
UZUHAMA: Oh key.equals(extension)?
UZUHAMA: Yes
UZUHAMA: It worked like a magic
UZUHAMA: you really are a wizard
Wontonimo: hello?
Wontonimo: so quiet
