MadKnight: Automaton2000 how am i ?
Automaton2000: where can i find the best move
**PatrickMcGinnisII kicks Automaton2000
Automaton2000: lots of people are submitting
MadKnight: Automaton2000 won't start working better from kicks, PatrickMcGinnisII
Automaton2000: how did you manage to do it
Rockstar555: Nice contribution EluerscheZahl
Rockstar555: :smile:
**PatrickMcGinnisII doesn't see a toad
Rockstar555: Hii
PatrickMcGinnisII: is it cold there?
PatrickMcGinnisII: it's 16C here, bout the same?
Rockstar555: couldn't understand
Rockstar555: :thinking:
Rockstar555: ohh
Rockstar555: yeah
PatrickMcGinnisII: 61 farenheit
Rockstar555: 9 c
Rockstar555: 9C
PatrickMcGinnisII: i love it, better than 40C
Anibal.: Hello
Rockstar555: HELLO
Rockstar555: hey what programming language u know
FairyKite: hello
Rockstar555: hii
MadKnight: so my PC headphones are doing weird noises instead of the actual sound
MadKnight: how do i tell if it's a software bug or hardware ?
MadKnight: okay i'm pretty sure it's a software bug
MadKnight: how do i fix it, Automaton2000? everything works when i plug these headphones into my phone
Automaton2000: i was just thinking how to solve the problem.
MadKnight: JBM
JBM: MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight
MadKnight: JBM JBM JBM
JBM: MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight MadKnight
MadKnight: let's continue our little convo here JBM
JBM: where would that stop
MadKnight: instead of fr
MadKnight: so about what i was saying
JBM: we had a convo?
JBM: was mostly you naming me
MadKnight: yea i was saying stuff and u were responding
JBM: i'm so polite
MadKnight: but i wasn't saying it in fr so we are here
MadKnight: i actually just wanted to know your age JBM
MadKnight: are u older than uljahn ?
JBM: i don't know
JBM: how old am I?
MadKnight: answer your own question
MadKnight: do it for Automaton2000
Automaton2000: i knew you were going to do that for the last year
JBM: Automaton2000 is about 4 years old
Automaton2000: i think this will help me
MadKnight: do it for the last year as Automaton2000 says
Automaton2000: that's where i found out why my code doesn't work for me
MadKnight: his code was supposed to get the answer but it didn't wor
MadKnight: k
MadKnight: so here he are JBM
JBM: maybe if u try again
MadKnight: okay let's do it again Automaton2000
Automaton2000: but my bot is just better than mine
JBM: says it all
MadKnight: what does
JBM: true master of self-reference
MadKnight: wut
MadKnight: too context-ish
MadKnight: Automaton2000 explain the context
Automaton2000: that's what i told you to do a bfs from each cell to each other
MadKnight: Automaton2000 hack into JBM's mind and find out what he got in mind, and also find out his age
Automaton2000: u need to check if a pac is dead
PatrickMcGinnisII: Drain Bamage
MadKnight: i hope it's not that joke from 2016 about me being an Automaton2000 Automaton2000 because it's too old and outdated
Automaton2000: and i'm pretty sure you can get the distance from the checkpoint
MadKnight: PatrickMcGinnisII are u talking about that song by Eminem ?
MadKnight: where he rhymed to Orange ?
PatrickMcGinnisII: Automaton2000 just said JBM has brain damage
Automaton2000: need some help with the ascii art puzzle?
MadKnight: JBM is a pac ?
PatrickMcGinnisII: i guess
JBM: now that's old
JBM: but is it old enough
PatrickMcGinnisII: JBM did u have a contrib just go live?
MadKnight: true, that song is old
JBM: not that i know why?
JBM: then again i don't think i logged in to check today
MadKnight: JBM is just a passive troll who chills in chat and trolls people PatrickMcGinnisII his only activity is approving puzzles
MadKnight: oh and also repeating jokes from 2016
PatrickMcGinnisII: if u did just wanted to know the name of it, thought i saw one yesterday with 13 hours left er sumtin
MadKnight: (2016 is the year of CSB)
PatrickMcGinnisII: Actually I'm practicing variations of deep cloning class objects, there is no spoon ep 2 has been kicking my buttocks
MadKnight: (and also the year where i was a bit weird and jbm made a meme out of me doing very weird french sentences in #fr)
MadKnight: why do u need any kind of fancy deep cloning for that one PatrickMcGinnisII ?
PatrickMcGinnisII: php doesn't copy nodes correctly
MadKnight: oh so is that your only problem ?
PatrickMcGinnisII: so u have to manually write __clone functions
MadKnight: fixing deep cloning -> pt2 is solved ?
PatrickMcGinnisII: almost
MadKnight: xplain
PatrickMcGinnisII: my dfs tree was operating on bad data
PatrickMcGinnisII: old data
PatrickMcGinnisII: when i backtrack the objects by reference had only 1 copy.
PatrickMcGinnisII: so i think that works
PatrickMcGinnisII: and although CG upgraded the php core, it's still full of errors involving the use of constants
PatrickMcGinnisII: define('CONSTANT',[]);
PatrickMcGinnisII: arrays works, but if you try to copy the data , CG doesn't error it as constants can't be pass by reference... which it should error, but doesn't
PatrickMcGinnisII: so a workaround with a static class is necessary
PatrickMcGinnisII: it just sucks
PatrickMcGinnisII: for example, if I setup a library of combinatorics for my program to use, so i don't have to compute them everytime
PatrickMcGinnisII: it saves cpu cycles
PatrickMcGinnisII: but as soon as you try to use one in a foreach loop in a node tree class they freaking barf on themselves
PatrickMcGinnisII: it's so wierd
PatrickMcGinnisII: weird
PatrickMcGinnisII: I assume CG is scared of recursive error checking
PatrickMcGinnisII: it's better than nothing, which is basically what a standard php cli gives you...nothing
PatrickMcGinnisII: ok tmi
PatrickMcGinnisII: Haven't tried PHP in any IDEs, althouhg i have a couple that are capable
PatrickMcGinnisII: Warning: your code did not read all available input before printing an instruction, your outputs will not be synchronized with the game's turns and unexpected behaviour may occur.
LLG: I'm trying to solve Code vs Zombies
LLG: but I have no idea how to figure out the exact coordinates my character will move to if I issue a move command out of range

AntiSquid: it's not myVar = --myVar;
Just --myVar;
AntiSquid: the whole point was to just decrement the variable with --
hiukan: is there anything I have to do/click to actually participate in a clash of code .. ?
I'm a little bit confused because all I see is a timer to 0 and then... well nothing happens (?)
DoxLee: can somebody help me who knows c++
jacek: hiukan in the page there is join a clash, then wait till timer is 0 and you should be moved to page with clash task
K2ARISM: it's broken
jacek: oO
logiqub: clash isnt' starting for me, stuck at the join screen
logiqub: count down and then freeze, anyone with the same problem ?
jacek: hmm
hiukan: yeah here
hiukan: that's what I mean
hiukan: meant
jacek: reported bug in discord
Matt9400: ok
K2ARISM: it's working now
logiqub: Still totally broken for me. Although it did update that I lost 500 places and probably losing more as I try to join.
hiukan: what's working for me is taking the link in the upper right corner and just put this in the "adressleiste" sorry I don't know how it's called in english
hiukan: well just where you put in your urls /webadresses
hiukan: top of browser
logiqub: okay thank you @hiukan
hiukan: np :)
aderthecoder: ello everyone
aderthecoder: hi everyone
Huxies: hi there ^^
aderthecoder: I'm new here and this is a really cool site!
ChampionCoder: I agree
ChampionCoder: This Web Site is very intricately built
ChampionCoder: Often engrossed in it for hours
ChampionCoder: :smile:
jacek: daily? :o
WelloHorld: :heart_eyes:

ChampionCoder: :smile:
jacek: clash should be working now

Rockstar555: watch
Uljahn: don't watch it's a frontend virus
Rockstar555: no virus
AlgoN: made by u ?
Rockstar555: yeah

Rockstar555: why u do this
AlgoN: yeah
ComradePingu: hello how are you
ComradePingu: I love djaj m7ammar and khobiza
Rockstar555: hii
Leirn: Hello. I have a question on Chess board analyzer
Leirn: It seems that the test "Close one" violates the rule "An attacked King could be saved only by moving himself to a safe square (not by using another piece from the King's team)"
Leirn: Because the test is expteting a non terminal game, but the white king is definitely mat is I cannot use the white knight
Rockstar555: https://www.codingame.com/forum/t/option-of-delete-a-message-in-chat/188182
Rockstar555: see this
Uljahn: just go to discord [solved]
Uljahn: xmpp chats cant have such functionality i guess
struct: Leirn the king is not in check
struct: oh wait
struct: yeah doesnt seem on check
struct: But all surrounding cells are covered by enemy
Leirn: ohhhh
struct: But he can still move his Knight
Leirn: Thanks for the nuance
Rockstar555: hey anybody here
jacek: AutomatonNN maybe
AutomatonNN: what do you mean?
[CG]Maxime: Uljahn it's actually possible: we store the messages in a postgresql database, so it's possible to update the messages there. However, it's not in the protocole directly, so it's kind of hacky.
[CG]Maxime: (and the message would not be removed from the chat for people who received it in their client)
DJBioPanda_fa3c: Somebody done stall tilt puzzle?
Uljahn: [CG]Maxime: right, thanks for the detailed response
ProCrazyCoder: HELLO
jacek: ohai
Samzok123: what's up
Samzok123: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
TheLonelyDictator_9ce: stall tilt?
TheLonelyDictator_9ce: c++
TheLonelyDictator_9ce: maybe
Guinsoo: I was playing CoC and this happend
https://www.codingame.com/clashofcode/clash/report/1494754b3ad75c9e42bd303258816a9a51bf690
Can anyone explain the top answer please ?
eulerscheZahl: no. we can't see the code
eulerscheZahl: only those who participated have access
Guinsoo: Oh I'll share it
eulerscheZahl: and we don't know the question either
Guinsoo: exec(bytes("㵡楛灮瑵⤨献汰瑩⤨潦 湩爠湡敧椨瑮椨灮瑵⤨⤩㵢湩異⡴牰湩⡴畳⡭湩⡴季崱昩牯挠椠晩戠椠季崰⤩","U16")[2:])
Guinsoo: =)
eulerscheZahl: jeez
eulerscheZahl: executed that bytes part in my python console
eulerscheZahl: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/4e177f28-cbbf-4bda-acca-5ebd670707a8
Guinsoo: That's cheating
eulerscheZahl: CG counts chars and unicode allows 2 bytes per char
Guinsoo: Ohhh
Guinsoo: Thank you toad

reCurse: People are getting that hardcore on clashes? eh
AshKetchum: What if someone executed it and it had
import os
os.remove("System32")
print "RIP"
reCurse: system32 on linux :thinking:
AshKetchum: reCurse is on windows I know
AshKetchum: haha still remember your stream
Guinsoo: but the server
Guinsoo: This makes me not want to play CoC
Guinsoo: Dx
reCurse: Congrats on your graduation
Guinsoo: But if I don't I will lose the master rank :(
Guinsoo: :D
Guinsoo: I don't really deserve it you know
MetehanBayraktar: Hello guys I am new
JBM: it won't last
MetehanBayraktar: why?
daedaeNdasiy: same
MetehanBayraktar: what won't last
daedaeNdasiy: i'm new
jacek: oO
CursingLlama: in CoC for shortest mode does it count line breaks?
eulerscheZahl: test it, you see the char count at the bottom corner
miszu: that moment when the boss timeout https://www.codingame.com/share-replay/514431003
Lafihalas: guys, for bulls and cows puzzle, what should be the output if its not possible to uniquely pinpoint the secret number from all the guesses
eulerscheZahl: then you should check your solver as it's always possible to find a unique number
Lafihalas: oh ok, all cases in IDE passed, and one of the validators called "All for naught" failed, so you know, i had to ask :D
Lafihalas: thanks i will go recheck my solution
Lafihalas: btw i managed to find the error on my side, thanks again :D
cerklee: hello
miszu: when you finish first with 25.76 but the boss is 25.81 and you won vs bot 4/5...
miszu: cruel world
jacek: nyoro~n
MatieLeFilm: yes
Stilgart: miszu: time to submit again
jacek: woo new puzzle of the week
trictrac: hello jacek, it's blocking
jacek: talk to mods to unlock it
wlesavo: hello blocking :slight_smile:
miszu: Stilgart yeah I submitted again with a small change and now in silver
struct: nice miszu
miszu: thank you!
jacek: lets see how many new players will be there
PeaceMoreZ: hi
Stilgart: gg miszu
ToshiTuringMachine: woow this puzzle of the week is so cool
ToshiTuringMachine: i think I will buy the real game
Guinsoo: I played it as school it's great
therealbeef: urgh, why did i think that optional<vector<..>> a = {} would create an optional with empty vector in it. stupid bug -_-
ToshiTuringMachine: well the middle player in a 3 players game is pretty unlucky
struct: Site slow again?
DomiKo: yes :(
LastRick: Must be that time of night again
LastRick: Gotta update them leaderboards
FuriousTurtle: sorry i'm compiling some scala, i'll refactor so the website doesnt freeze ~~
LastRick: I joked last night its because I'm hooked on CSB. I cant get enough.
struct: Oh well, I reported it yesterday on discord
struct: I guess we just have to wait
LastRick: Holy moley its creeping right now
LastRick: Ugh, stuck around top 15% of Gold on CSB. Just can not find that last trick.
MadKnight: boost with one pod on start
MadKnight: this trick is even better than -3vel
LastRick: it makes some sense. there are times at the start of a race it is like bumper cars
MadKnight: boost on start is sometimes very useful and sometimes not
MadKnight: it's like 100% will be useful for one of the pods
LastRick: i also think there's something left to calculate with the shape of the track. when the turn is fairly obtuse, the pods do ok. When the turn is acute, I definitely dont stop as well as the bot
MadKnight: u need to do like real racers do
LastRick: I need a brake! :)
MadKnight: no u need to lean to the right side
MadKnight: before turning left
LastRick: yeah, apply an offset based on if its to the left or right
MadKnight: yea
LastRick: lest i forget what was the -3vel thing, didnt get that
MadKnight: oh it was just nextCpX - vx*3
LastRick: weird. i dont get the math of that
MadKnight: your pod moves in +vx
MadKnight: your pod aims directly towards target which is nextCpX
MadKnight: and accelerates
MadKnight: but then it gets pushed by vx
MadKnight: so its aim is no more directed towards nextCpX
MadKnight: but instead towards nextCpX + vx
LastRick: Sure, thats why I usually adjust by -vx for my command. It's the "3" I dont understand
MadKnight: your vx doesn't disappear instantly
MadKnight: it keeps
LastRick: oh interesting. like it takes time to decelerate
MadKnight: like in 2 turns it'll be nextCpX + vx*2
LastRick: oh wow. that may be it. my pods look really good right now
MadKnight: gogogo ezpz legend
LastRick: Seriously thanks for your help. Testing it now, nearly undefeated through the first 30%. Even if i dont make legend, it was obviously tons better
DaNinja: next just add a neural net genetic algorithm
DaNinja: ezpz legend
LastRick: that's exactly what i'm trying NOT to do
LastRick: Holy wow. That jumped me all the way to top 75 Gold. So close, @MadKnight.
MadKnight: do u start going towards future nextCP early ?
LastRick: yeah, I bank. But now I will probably revisit my banking seeing how it's turning a lot better now
MadKnight: u need to somehow improve your condition of when to "bank"
LastRick: Oh yeah, definitely. I think thats the last hurdle to legend, when to bank + a slight offset to the bank
MadKnight: u can calculate movement
MadKnight: pos += vel
MadKnight: to check if it hits checkpoint in a few turns
MadKnight: LastRick
LastRick: In other words, if I start banking "now", would it stop before getting there? if so, don't bank yet
MadKnight: like, would it miss checkpoint ?
LastRick: yeah
MadKnight: yea check for it
LastRick: Interesting. this feels like some math coming on. :)
MadKnight: some basic gamedev math
LastRick: for you guys, this is all new to me. Never done anything remotely like this.
MadKnight: u just need some operations with vectors
LastRick: yeah, i got work to do it would seem
FairyKite: hello
