KiwiTae: PaoPie you are typing in general chat
jacek: yinsh puzzle of the week! how? it has no leagues
programming123kid: hi guys i m new
FloatingQueen: hey
FloatingQueen: I have question, what would be the shortest way to 'output input**2' in ruby
gigolo: haha
FloatingQueen: p gets.to_i**2 is there any shorter way )
jrke: nope not any more shorter according to me
SwagLord99: why am i gae?
MadKnight: Automaton2000 come up with a joke for me i'm tired
Automaton2000: i need to pick it up and then i get a working bot
MadKnight: Automaton2000 use some play on words around things like - daye or saye
Automaton2000: i wouldn't be surprised if it was a mistake
MadKnight: a play on words is never a mistake Automaton2000 how could u think that ?
Automaton2000: maybe i'm just too lazy to fix it
Tiramon: oh comepn Automaton2000 don't be lazy
Automaton2000: they should have some kind of minimax
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: hello
Tiramon: hello TheFakePencilCase_fd0b =)
Tiramon: damn my chat is laggy ...
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: What did you lads do for the Thor challenge with the light??
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: I don't want the answer outright
Tiramon: you just have to choose which way to walk in the knowledge of your current position and the position of the light ... hard to tell more without spoilering ;)
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: Fair enough
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: my issue is you don't get current pos so far as I've seen
Tiramon: oh common problem don't forget that you have to keep track of your current position yourself, because the task only gives you start and target position and no updates in between
0H7l_ubinzzang: How can I play Coding Escape?
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: I think I might be getting caught up in the fact that it's labelled easy, lol
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: i keep thinking that I might be overthinking it
KiwiTae: Tiramon o/
Tiramon: havn't tried it yet, but you can request access at https://escape.codingame.com/ .. no idea what happens after that 0H7l_ubinzzang
Tiramon: Hi Kiwi
jacek: good morning
Tiramon: Thor is pretty easy TheFakePencilCase_fd0b so there is a good chance you are overthinking it
Tiramon: as i said main problem most people have is that you have to keep track of the current position yourself
KiwiTae: took me 90min for the easy room ><
Tiramon: if thor keeps going always in the same direction you propably haven't updated your location
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: How would you keep track of his current pos, you know theoretically if someone else might possibly be wondering
Tiramon: my start position is given
so if i move west once my current position will be y = starty and x = startx-1
Tiramon: also thor is also one of the few puzzles that has a 'hint' entry in the left menu which even contains pseudo code
Tiramon: oh and a working solution
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: Man, you'd think almost half a year in Java developement classes would help figuring out a basic problem lol
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: Is this room not on discord client?
jacek: this is not discord
jacek: nor celestia
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: wait
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: what
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: I legit thought this was like, an integrated discord thing
jacek: this is xmpp chat
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: lmfao, that explains why discord didn't pop up in noscript
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: I thought it was one of those fake chat bots at first
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: sort of fell apart when Tiramon was both super helpful and also very specific to my questions
jacek: he's helpful, how could he!? :(
Tiramon: sorry for beeing helpful ;)
an no our chat bot is Automaton2000 ... and i promise he is much less helpfull ;)
Automaton2000: are you doing right now
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: Lol, thanks Tiramon, making me think Skynet was taking over
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: Am I stuck with FakePncilCase or can I change it?
TheFakePencilCase_fd0b: As much as I loove my current name it'd be nice to know how to change it
Tiramon: pff thats quite some time ago ... i think you should be able to change it in your profile ...
Tiramon: yes open your profile and then you should be able to click the 'Anonymous' part and change your name
Tiramon: might take a refresh of the site before the chat recognizes your new nick
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: testing
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: aight imma refresh
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: testing #2
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: nvm
Tiramon: FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon] it did work ;)
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: lol, Yay
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: what do you think of my name choice? :smile:
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: Also, what time zone are you dudes in, it's 3 am for me, but it's saying it's 8am in chat
DrQuarius: My chess puzzle needs 2 approvals today if anyone feels like testing it?
DrQuarius: https://www.codingame.com/contribute/view/64639cca3e17692ab77efb473c2f3dc784f9
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: How does one test puzzles?
DrQuarius: The link above. Or "Community>Contributions" for other puzzles.
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: Sorry, I'm fairly new to using this site, my question was more of a, what do I need to do to properly test the puzzle
jacek: test in ide. but you need 20+ lvl to approve
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: Ok, so is it just making sure it's actually solvable?
jacek: yes
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: thanks jacek
gilufin: how do you suggest to learn ruby.
I know some languages
struct: yinsh potw :p
jacek: eeyup
jacek: is submiting enough to 'solve' it?
struct: rip just saw discord message
FakePencilCase[ForMrTiramon]: night yall, I'm tired and drunk not gonna figure out any problems tonigh lmfao
Passifi: sigh this greedy tower thing is kicking my buttox everytime i have a new idea some other test case breaks :weary:
jacek: youre so greedy
Tiramon: pff just found a sql that is not using indizes on production and was 100 times slower that way ... was working fine on test ;)
dreadylein: eh indexing is overvalued :P
gigolo: hey vro
MadKnight: Automaton2000 cmon
Automaton2000: i'm going to take a look at the replays
Tiramon: i can't believe that it will help in your case Automaton2000
Automaton2000: yeah i should do it
ReaListik: hey türk hok mu ?
aTHauF: Hello :)
gigolo: Automaton2000 are u busy ?
Automaton2000: time to get out of silver
euph0ria: why? silver is just getting started, waiting for $200
gigolo: Automaton2000 :nerd:
Automaton2000: not sure if i can reach legend
gigolo: silver is enuf for u :joy:
Kitkat260: can u tell alex-1 to answer me plz
Tiramon: there is no alex-1 ... so no
Kitkat260: ok
Hashtagholden: oh, mod is in chat, nice
Tiramon: oh rhere is one ...
Tiramon: *there
Tiramon: leaderboard was just loading slow .. so alex-1 answer to Kitkat260 for whatever reason ... if you like to ...
Tiramon: Hashtagholden there is a new contest upcoming ... so there will be some more activity in the chat
atleast in theory
Kitkat260: nice
Tiramon: why should he answer?
Tiramon: and why couldn't you tell him yourself?
Coder_prabhat: hey Automaton2000
Automaton2000: but if you didn't see that
Tiramon: sorry Automaton2000 that i didn't see it ... what exactly?
Automaton2000: i had a ton of games
gigolo: Automaton2000 which game
Automaton2000: i'll see if i remember correctly
Westicles: he would answer if he could, but he can't
gigolo: :disappointed_relieved:
Kitkat260: found him!!!
gigolo: Automaton2000 do u like music :nerd:
Automaton2000: how do i know if i can make it work
gigolo: :relaxed:

Michael_Howard: What's the best way to report a possibly urgent bug without making it public?
struct: Do you have discord?
Michael_Howard: Yeah
struct: Are you on the CG server?
Michael_Howard: Yeah
struct: whisper GC thibaud
jacek: garbage collector thibaud?

Kitkat260: has anyone seen gigolo
Michael_Howard: @struct thanks, done.
jacek: what was that crucial bug eh :thinking:
Michael_Howard: Nothing that would have affected you :)
ITheseus: But sudo reboot just in case :)
Westicles: checks 13yo daughter's chat log, turns out she is talking to gigolos
TheNightFury: fudu bots\
TobiasA: i finally reached level 9:sunglasses:
KalamariKing: Nice!
KiwiTae: gg
TobiasA: bow before me
TobiasA: jk
**Dr-D bows.
KalamariKing: I recently went from 9 to 13 pretty much overnight, grinding challenges
TobiasA: yea thats right
TobiasA: i earned it
TobiasA: waaaat
TobiasA: 9 to 13?
TobiasA: there goes my pride and ego:unamused:
Dr-D: Just show him, you can go to 14 until tomorrow!
Dr-D: I belief in you, master!
TobiasA: can i really tho?
TobiasA: it took almost a year to go from 8 to 9
TobiasA: i give up easily you know
Dr-D: What did you do? ;->
Dr-D: Just find a puzzle that gives more than 50 exp
Dr-D: (and solve it ..)
KiwiTae: like bot programming
TobiasA: when i get stuck in one of them puzzle i get frustrated and then procrastinate for like 6 months
jacek: its so easy to level now since the quest map
Dr-D: I came back here on saturday last week
KiwiTae: TobiasA clash of codes doesnt give u xp
TobiasA: ok challenge accepted
KalamariKing: On the home screen thing, there are the challenge paths. I completed all of them except one in the middle, so as soon as I completed that one in the middle of the path, the rest were already done and I reaped all of the xp at once
TobiasA: i'll get to 14
KalamariKing: If that makes any sense whatsoever
Dr-D: Just to learn all my old solutions are worthless, because I only write dart here and they seem to have updated the language
TobiasA: yea i found out coc doesnt give xp
KalamariKing: I mean I completed all of the challenges on a single path, except one
KalamariKing: Yeah unfortunate
TobiasA: someone should suggest a puzzle for me to level up
TobiasA: 3 million fold
Dr-D: Gogo TobiasA!
KiwiTae: mars lander 1
TobiasA: i've done that one
Astrobytes: Space Maze
Dr-D: That is not one of the easiest ;)
Astrobytes: Nintendo
Astrobytes: :grin:
TobiasA: lemme check them out
KiwiTae: Astrobytes o/
Astrobytes: No lol
jacek: sponsored puzzle. you can farm languages
VizGhar: Astro? u want to kill him?
Dr-D: Dont do that
KiwiTae: TobiasA don't do it
Astrobytes: Hey Kiwi o/
jacek: hm?
Astrobytes: TobiasA don't
Astrobytes: do as jacek suggested though
Dr-D: Astro seems to like watch people burn
Dr-D: seems to like TO watch? hmm
jacek: or do the puzzle of the week
Astrobytes: Nah, just a standard answer for requests for easy things to do :P
Astrobytes: lol Yinsh. Wut
TobiasA: why not?
KiwiTae: TobiasA do coder strike back -PIvel
VizGhar: Puzzle of the week gives more XP or something?
TobiasA: coder strike back is the one that broke me
Astrobytes: What league?
TobiasA: i still have nightmares
jacek: nah, just quest in questmap
TobiasA: i'm still in wood
Dr-D: Just quest ist questmap? Like "do 100 achievments"? =D
KiwiTae: TobiasA don't they write how to beat thewood bosses in the hints lol
KalamariKing: Should I try the Nintendo sponsored puzzle: yay or nay
TobiasA: i just keep losing
TobiasA: i'm in the stage where there are collisions
KalamariKing: Me too
KiwiTae: start thinking about collision in gold
VizGhar: KalamariKing solve all hard puzzle first :)
VizGhar: nintendo is probably hardest puzzle here
KalamariKing: VizGhar ik
KalamariKing: thats the point
TobiasA: so any idea how i complete coders strike back
VizGhar: There is no fun involved in nintendo puzzle. Maybe just a huge relief after solving (haven't been there)
Dr-D: When coding a bot, do the "kiss"-strategy: keep it simple stupid!
VizGhar: agree with doctor
TobiasA: but
TobiasA: but stupid never wins
TobiasA: if not i would win everytime
Dr-D: than its too stupid ;)
VizGhar: get out of wood then start to think
Dr-D: usually the first tiers can be beaten with some sort of "gready" mechanism
Astrobytes: Nintendo is ridiculously difficult unless you're skilled in that area of mathematics. Which most of us aren't.
TobiasA: wait no i am in bronze
VizGhar: Which area is that Astro? :P
TobiasA: i actually forgot
Dr-D: =D
ahmet_karadogan: guys the code i play is not the same with the code i test in arena what might be the problem
Astrobytes: Field theory, cryptography
TobiasA: so how to get out of bronze
Astrobytes: -3vel
TobiasA: hm?
KiwiTae: Astrobytes Nintendo is cryptography? I should check it out
VizGhar: omg are we going to explain velocity like last time? :D
TobiasA: pls do
Astrobytes: Yeah, it's a beast though KiwiTae, you have been warned :D
Astrobytes: I'm leaving before the velocity discussion VizGhar :D
TobiasA: noooooooooooooooooo
VizGhar: understandable... I won't contribute too
fvla: Velocity discussion?
KiwiTae: next frame the pod will be at its current location + dt* velocity
Westicles: Take a jerk and integrate him twice
fvla: lol
VizGhar: Kiwi... you can find solutions for nintendo online as well as deep explanations :D I've checked them, they work. But I want to solve it myself later
Westicles: Try freecell, that is more fun
TobiasA: so how do i make the pod win
TobiasA: win()
KalamariKing: by doing so
TobiasA: def win()
TobiasA: void win(){}
KiwiTae: target - 3vel
TobiasA: 3vel
TobiasA: whats that
KiwiTae: delta position
TobiasA: 3 velocity
jacek: velocity
VizGhar: here we go... by chat
Dr-D: if you want to solve a really fun optimization game, search for "cgfunge prime"
TobiasA: what is the formula to get this target velocity
fvla: yes
TheNightFury: hellow
TheNightFury: :)
TobiasA: hey new person
KalamariKing: Howdy
TobiasA: do you know how to make me win
KiwiTae: TobiasA google how to compute velocity
KalamariKing: Welcome to... *advanced bot programmers trying to explain something to us newbies*
KiwiTae: thats more like physics
jacek: :unamused:
TobiasA: velocity is distance/time
TobiasA: innit?
Westicles: Oktoberfest canceled again. What a bunch of pansies
jacek: hint: use muzero. make NN figure out the physics instead [solved]
Philbot: it's not october
Dr-D: You have to understand, those bots are usually made during a contest. People are coding a week (or so) lots (!) of hours to come up with smart ideas. That is nothing to do within 2 hours or so.
KalamariKing: Right but
KalamariKing: We're looking to get out of wood
TobiasA: i'm in bronze
KalamariKing: Whatever, bronze
TobiasA: i just found out
KalamariKing: The collisions level
TobiasA: yes that one
Philbot: yes
KiwiTae: before thinking about collision
KiwiTae: you better understand the concept of velocity
Dr-D: Take part in the upcoming spring challenge and you will understand ;)
TobiasA: i registered
Philbot: understand what?
TobiasA: but i'm still a noob
Dr-D: (wont help with your velocity problem)
TobiasA: so i want to level up
fvla: maybe take a calculus/physics class if you want to understand velocity?
Philbot: you know the game already dr-di ?
TobiasA: i understand velocity
Dr-D: What? No @ Philbot
Dr-D: Didnt even registered yet
Philbot: yet you talk with so much confidence about it
Dr-D: But one should do such a challenge to understand the beauty of it and the amount of work going into bots
Dr-D: Thats nothing with the upcoming one in particular
Westicles: You get tortoro to climb the camphor tree by collecting blueberry spirits so you can buy cards that convert into acorns
TobiasA: i'm trying to know what the problem is that i am supposed to solve in coders strike back
TobiasA: not how to solve the problem
Philbot: there is a description
TobiasA: no i mean like what did i do wrong that is making my pod not win
TobiasA: it goes round the course
TobiasA: but thats it
struct: http://files.magusgeek.com/csb/csb_en.html
struct: Check that tutorial
TobiasA: thanks
fvla: I just looked back at my year old Coders Strike Back silver bot, and wow, it is horrible
TobiasA: woah silver?
Michael_Howard: A good strategy is having one racer race, and the other just attack the opposition.
TobiasA: we got a smorty
fvla: Silver doesn't have 2 racers yet
TobiasA: woah that tutorial has GA that's badass
fvla: Thanks for the advice though, Michael_Howard
Kitkat260: #clash
MadKnight: have u guys seen the Gravity Falls references in Rick & Morty ?
Kitkat260: yes
MadKnight: which ones ?
Kitkat260: id remember
Michael_Howard: Did they increase the source code size limit?
Michael_Howard: I'm at 110,000 chars (108k) and haven't been told off yet.
Michael_Howard: If so, awesome. :thumbsup:
jacek: huh
jacek: nah, still 100k
VizGhar: I remember, there was some issue with one puzzle + language combination, where there was no time limit :)
VizGhar: what language are u using? 100k characters is quite a lot
jacek: not for meh
Michael_Howard: Maybe they're being sensible with whitespace now - treating spaces as tabs.
Matty73: this code for one of the bot leagues? at 100k that's crazy numbers for games hahaha
Michael_Howard: It's for Fall Challenge 2020. Getting some practice in :)
Kitkat260: hi matty
Matty73: Nice Michael and hi :)
Kitkat260: how are you
jacek: Michael_Howard you can try some codegolf puzzle and paste code there. it will count the characters
Matty73: Im well and you?
Hjax: yay they fixed rust release mode
Kitkat260: im ok
jacek: 3:
Michael_Howard: @jacek I just used unix wc
jacek: it may count differently than on CG
Kitkat260: hi @Hjax
Hjax: hello
Kitkat260: how r u
Hjax: fine, kind of just chilling, waiting to see if the contest is something fun
jacek: pacman 2 eh
Hjax: *shivers*
Kitkat260: * freaks ou*
Hjax: the magical thing about the pacman game
Hjax: is it was really cleverly designed, to make itself look like a fun game
Hjax: and then you played it for a bit and realized how random it was
Therabidpanther: hello friend
Therabidpanther: (s)
Hjax: hello
KalamariKing: howdy
Hjax: i havent done any competitive programming in a while, i should probably grab a multi to warm up before the contest
Hjax: but the odds of the contest disappointing me is pretty high
TobiasA: what's a multi?
Gemer0987: what
jacek: multiple singles
TobiasA: what are singles?
ZarthaxX: :face_palm:
Hjax: a multi is a former contest
Hjax: that you can play whenever you want
TobiasA: oh ok
Hjax: well, not all of them are former contests
Hjax: but most of them are
Hjax: some of them are user submitted things
Hjax: https://www.codingame.com/multiplayer/bot-programming

TobiasA: why was he banned?
orangesnowfox: why is optimial CotR so difficult :pensive: /hj
TobiasA: what is optimal Cotr?
King_Coda: clash of the ring
King_Coda: call of the rupees
orangesnowfox: CotR = Code of the Rings, it's an optimization problem
King_Coda: damn
TobiasA: oh that
orangesnowfox: You want the minimum brainf*ck code to output an input string
TobiasA: yea i suck at that
King_Coda: :thinking:
King_Coda: :dizzy_face::zzz:
orangesnowfox: There's a really basic algorithm that doesn't get much score, but definitely *works*
Westicles: You can also do it manually. I think one guy got around 50th place
orangesnowfox: The half joking part is "well, selecting the *actual* optimal string is `O(7^n)` using bruteforce
orangesnowfox: Yeah, but then I'd have to RE the testcases, and I'm not really interested in doing that
King_Coda: :neutral_face:
TobiasA: what is RE?
orangesnowfox: My specific goals are: "Do as good as possible without hardcoding"
King_Coda: I definitely know what you're talking about
orangesnowfox: RE = Reverse Engineering
King_Coda: Agh, my 120 IQ is failing me
TobiasA: i'm on a learning streak
King_Coda: Ew, I hate school
TobiasA: me too
King_Coda: why are they giving me 50 question post tests .
orangesnowfox: school? What's that? :v
King_Coda: we literally learned about 3 things this unit
orangesnowfox: Anyway, gtg on a walk
TobiasA: bet you are in university
King_Coda: how tf do you make 50 questions out of that
TobiasA: buhbye fox guy
King_Coda: byebye
King_Coda: don'tdie
King_Coda: - n't
TobiasA: what subject?
orangesnowfox: *girl...
Wait, do I *want* to reveal that on the intern- whatever, it's fine
King_Coda: :smiling_imp:
King_Coda: It's world history
Astrobytes: orangesnowfox: orangesnowvixen ;)
TobiasA: oops
orangesnowfox: lol
King_Coda: oh
King_Coda: i totally knew that
King_Coda: the whole time
King_Coda: yup
TobiasA: king what subject is that test
King_Coda: "It's world history"
King_Coda: ^
TobiasA: ohohohoh
TobiasA: why?
King_Coda: Because I apparently have to according to the education system
King_Coda: not like I already learned it 4 times
King_Coda: not like i even care
TobiasA: understandable
King_Coda: i'm going to procrastinate on that and instead do chemistry
davilla: I think snow vixen's favorite color is orange just because that's the color of rust
TobiasA: bruh
King_Coda: rust is brown-red eh
TobiasA: good desicion
Westicles: There are no girls on the internet, and everything you learn in world history is lies
TobiasA: chemistry good
King_Coda: sometimes orange
King_Coda: Thanks westicles lol
TobiasA: i hate history
King_Coda: How rude of me, I didn't even say hello to Astrobytes.
King_Coda: Good morning.
Astrobytes: Hello King_Coda
TobiasA: he isn't here or she
TobiasA: oops
King_Coda: ^
TobiasA: where did you come from
Astrobytes: where did you go
King_Coda: How have you been this weekend Astro?
TobiasA: I don't hate it, I just don't like it
Astrobytes: Good. You?
TobiasA: wait wait
BlaiseEbuth: Where did you come from, cotton-eyed Joe?
orangesnowfox: ... Dropped back by because I needed to grab something before walking, orange isn't my favorite color, I'd just *not* put it in the name, but, well, snowfox is already taken 99% of the time lol
Astrobytes: BlaiseEbuth gets it
TobiasA: how did you know astrobytes was going to show up
BlaiseEbuth: of course
Astrobytes: I saw the ping TobiasA
King_Coda: Astrobytes: Great. I watched the Mortal Kombat Movie
orangesnowfox: Okay, that makes sense
TobiasA: ou
King_Coda: BlaiseEbuth: Good morning
TobiasA: oh it is morning?
King_Coda: Btw, if anybody here is considering watching the Mortal Kombat movie, DO IT. The movie is AWESOME.
King_Coda: TobiasA: Yeah, it's morning here
TobiasA: where do i watch it
King_Coda: HBO max i think
King_Coda: if you don't already have it then abuse the free trial
Astrobytes: I'll pass, thanks.
King_Coda: It is very gory, so If you don't like gore, then don't watch it
TobiasA: gore is alright
King_Coda: I mean, VERY gory. It's Mortal Kombat, there's some gruesome stuff there
Westicles: I like the highlander as raiden, but that was it
King_Coda: I will not spoil it for those who have not yet watched
Astrobytes: Gory eh.
TobiasA: it can't be that bad
Astrobytes: Try Cannibal Holocause
Astrobytes: *Holocaust
Therabidpanther: is there any chance we can get space cat back
King_Coda: If you love video game movies and want to see Mortal Kombat characters kick heavy arse, then watch the movie.
TobiasA: what is space cat?
Astrobytes: I hate video game movies.
King_Coda: Why's that Astrobytes?
Therabidpanther: Astrobytes old profile pic
Astrobytes: It wasn't in space. The cat was in front of my keyboard. Now it's in front of a musical keyboard.
Astrobytes: King_Coda: Just personal taste.
King_Coda: Okay, I understand.
King_Coda: I love video games -> I love video game movies
Astrobytes: Hate is too strong, I don't like them.
King_Coda: Doesn't really matter to me if it's good or bad, I just like seeing my favorite video game characters on the big screen.
TobiasA: what are your favourite video game characters
King_Coda: As long as the characters look good and the story exists, I'll enjoy it.
King_Coda: Pretty much any videogame character.
King_Coda: But if I had to choose, I'd say Minecraft Steve
ShannonNorris97: They butchered the assassin's creed movie though. Having played the games, I understood what was happening, but for anyone who hadn't it must have been so confusing. It made no effort to explain anything, including what the apple of eden did
TobiasA: shteve
King_Coda: ShannonNorris97: I never watched the movie, all I know is that it was bad
King_Coda: Also: Ezio Auditore fav assassin.
King_Coda: call me a normie
ShannonNorris97: Yeah it was a real shame - I had such high hopes for it
ShannonNorris97: 100% - Ezio and his story were awesome
King_Coda: I still don't have 2 and revelations, only brotherhood :disappointed:
King_Coda: I need to get the whole ezio saga
ShannonNorris97: Oh wow you're missing out! Assassin's creed 2 was one of the best in the series, if not the best
King_Coda: Yeah, just the bonus hidden missions in brotherhood made me want the game
Westicles: Robotron 2084, now that was a great game
King_Coda: *made me want Assassin's creed 2
ShannonNorris97: They have all sorts on AC2 in terms of extras. I think that was one of the main reasons I loved it as much as I did
ShannonNorris97: Just had to google that Westicles - a little before my time haha
King_Coda: Robotron 2084 is 40 years old westicles
King_Coda: I have assasin's creed 1, brotherhood, and 3, so i have a lot of holes in my collection
King_Coda: Westicles: Robotron 2084 looks goo dthough
Phoenix_X.0: How can I access the problems I solved in the past?
BlaiseEbuth: First you need a Delorean
King_Coda: lol
BlaiseEbuth: And then a time convector
TobiasA: then an infinty stone
King_Coda: preferably the time stone, but the space or reality stone work just fine
TobiasA: 1 table spoon full to be precise
BlaiseEbuth: Mortal Kombat is a great nanar reference...
King_Coda: nanar?
TobiasA: you access your past solved problems by going to where the problems are
King_Coda: a movie so bad it was good?
TobiasA: or maybe search it in the search bar
BlaiseEbuth: I have no idea (and don't find) how to translate it in english.
BlaiseEbuth: A movie so bad it became fun
TobiasA: what is nanar?
jacek: narnia?
King_Coda: nanar: a movie so bad it was good
Astrobytes: Yes King_Coda, correct
Westicles: best of the worst
King_Coda: :nerd:
BlaiseEbuth: I'll say fun more than good
King_Coda: You talking about the new one BlaiseEbuth
Westicles: I think he means 1995
TobiasA: *loses 5 million times more braincells than i can afford
Philbot: sharknado
TobiasA: so is nanar good or bad
BlaiseEbuth: They committed a new one?...
King_Coda: Mortal Kombat: 2021
jacek: aka covid?
King_Coda: No
King_Coda: Yes BlaiseEbuth, they made a new one that's actually good
King_Coda: maybe i'm just biased though
BlaiseEbuth: Covid is the new scorpion's fatality. He take of his mask and cough on the other guy.
King_Coda: LOL
King_Coda: The fire he breathes is actually just Covid
Westicles: But it only works 0.2% of the time
King_Coda: Yes.
BlaiseEbuth: And the cinematic of the death is soooooooo long...
King_Coda: it can take weeks to a month
King_Coda: to several months
Westicles: That game went off the rails in MK2 when they added babalities
King_Coda: But if you can sit through it, then you unlock the covid vaccine and you end the pandemic in game and irl
King_Coda: Oh, I remember the babalities
WannaBeHum1n: An error occurred (#404): "Couldn't find the question related to this contribution".
WannaBeHum1n: everytime i do test in ide i recieve this
WannaBeHum1n: ?
King_Coda: WannaBeHum1n, I thought you were trying to say something rude for a second there
King_Coda: Sounded like a fancy way of saying: "nobody asked"
Kitkat260: wassup
King_Coda: Nothing, chat is sleepy
Kitkat260: nice...
UUolfo: hey King_Coda have you considered learning python? that and c# are seeming to be most used today.
King_Coda: I am currently learning C# UUolfo
UUolfo: Right, but python tho lol
BlaiseEbuth: :scream:
orangesnowfox: Why not just know all the languages :p
King_Coda: ugh, i don't want to learn python
Kitkat260: i'm using python 3
UUolfo: I mean hell, he's young, he's got the time :P C# is a solid start. Tbh java and python and c# are pretty similar
UUolfo: and nice Kitkat
Kitkat260: its easy
UUolfo: ^^^
King_Coda: java is a c++ child iirc
orangesnowfox: Kitkat, nobody here is using py 2 here lol
Michael_Howard: Solved the 100k char mystery... they've started counting leading spaces as tabs. Saves me converting them in vim then pasting back when I hit the char limit.
Kitkat260: i said 3 not 2
orangesnowfox: I know, but the lack of py2 here means that python can only be py3
Kitkat260: ohhhhh, ok
King_Coda: lol
Kitkat260: really
jacek: oh my
XeroOl: it's funny because according to codingame my second most used language is ruby
KiwiTae: orangesnowfox there was a time we had py2 here
orangesnowfox: KiwiTae, I remember, I golfed in it
XeroOl: and I don't consider myself a ruby programmer
KiwiTae: orangesnowfox good old time :')
TobiasA: in a coders strike back tutorial the guy was using stuff like this.angle and vx, vy to move the stuff
XeroOl: py2 would be so good for golfing
TobiasA: but i don't have access to such
XeroOl: because you could just say `reduce` instead of `import functools functools.reduce`
TobiasA: i need a lawyer
KiwiTae: TobiasA you will have in next league
orangesnowfox: XeroOI, I found that all of my py2 solutions were just about the same as the py3 ones
KiwiTae: TobiasA just press the hint tab
orangesnowfox: character count wise
XeroOl: really, that's interesting
TobiasA: hint tab?
TobiasA: where is that?
XeroOl: because in my mind, having reduce would help a ton
orangesnowfox: I'm not really a python golfer, umm, temperatures might be the only one that would be different
XeroOl: but maybe a plain vanilla for loop is shorter than reduce either way
KiwiTae: my thor golf in python is awful
XeroOl: I have the worst thor golf ever lol
Kitkat260: i need help
KiwiTae: hardcoded for me><
XeroOl: its output switches from \n to \r\n down the middle
orangesnowfox: Mine *broke* after they changed the validators lol
Kitkat260: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/85d5b617-6625-4fc7-88a2-57e7226dc793
TobiasA: yo you guys are flexing
XeroOl: because it's easier to rig the newlines
orangesnowfox: Not hardcoded, but intentionally avoiding the missed testcase
Kitkat260: help me solve it
XeroOl: the missing north cases?
TobiasA: i haven't even completed any of those "golf" stuff
XeroOl: I never heard about that until after it was patched lol
KiwiTae: its south now
XeroOl: are there no south cases?
KiwiTae: they changed the validators
orangesnowfox: yeah, now it's south lol
KiwiTae: ><
XeroOl: hold up isn't that cheating?
orangesnowfox: Not really?
KiwiTae: if it works 100% it works :p
XeroOl: my python is at 1990 without cheating
KiwiTae: lol
XeroOl: 1990th place leaderboard
KiwiTae: u can do 100char without cheating
XeroOl: not 1990 chars
XeroOl: that would be bad
orangesnowfox: hollup, even if I was handling all 16 cases I'd be at like... 100chars
orangesnowfox: oh
XeroOl: 129 chars
KiwiTae: im stuck at 83 atm
XeroOl: maybe I'm dumb
XeroOl: I did not think about the algorithm very well
orangesnowfox: Actually, I'd be under 100 still I think
XeroOl: yeah, I'm not that smart at golfing
orangesnowfox: Golfing is an art :p
XeroOl: I can do clash of code golfing, but I can't do the more complex stuff
orangesnowfox: That reminds me... I did a clash golf once in like 7 chars
KiwiTae: my solution starts with "N\n"*50
King_Coda: python is the best for CoC
orangesnowfox: for golf
orangesnowfox: ?
orangesnowfox: Because, that definitely isn't true
IvesL: not python but ruby
XeroOl: is there a short way to consume an iter?
orangesnowfox: ^ ruby is definitely
Westicles: ruby or perl
XeroOl: I prefer ruby tbh
orangesnowfox: perl does really good too yeah
IvesL: almost all fast/shortest ones are ruby
XeroOl: is there a way to consume an iterator in python
TobiasA: "i did clash golf in 7 chars once" there goes my self esteem:expressionless:
IvesL: python only beats in simplicity or readability
XeroOl: I've got a map object and I just need it to execute
XeroOl: to save chars
XeroOl: list() is to costly
orangesnowfox: Okay, it was 18, I just counted
XeroOl: lmao python in readability
IvesL: the use of "puts" in ruby is too short
XeroOl: in lots of cases in ruby you can just use `p`
IvesL: yea or that
XeroOl: instead of `puts`
IvesL: in most cases that i have seen
IvesL: can never win against
XeroOl: how does anybody get this thor code shorter
XeroOl: I do not understand lol
Westicles: unicode
IvesL: i dont know how those 40chrs work in code golf with inputs
TobiasA: anytime i see someone use ruby in clash of code shortest mode i quit immediately:relieved:
XeroOl: just learn ruby
XeroOl: that's how I did it lol
TobiasA: nope
TobiasA: i find know use to it
TobiasA: no*
King_Coda: know
TobiasA: mistaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake
TobiasA: hmph
King_Coda: i no
XeroOl: imo it's really natural to use
Westicles: the good ones look like this
Westicles: exec(bytes('浩潰瑲洠瑡㭨㵲㬰㵩㬱...
TobiasA: i learnt it a long time ago
King_Coda: oh god
XeroOl: really?
orangesnowfox: ... oh, that makes sense
XeroOl: that's such a good idea
TobiasA: then after everything i was like
King_Coda: is that uncomplied C++?
TobiasA: what next
King_Coda: *compiled
orangesnowfox: Wait, how does that execute? the bytes aren't going to be in ascii range...
XeroOl: ^
XeroOl: maybe I'm stupid
Westicles: unicode characters are allowed
orangesnowfox: Right, but the bytes of the unicode characters aren't going to be ascii, so, how does the exec / bytes work?
XeroOl: yes but exec(bytes('chars')) is the same as exec('chars') which is the same as `chars`
Westicles: beats me, I don't know much python
XeroOl: how is it supposed to do anything different?
XeroOl: ahh it might be pyc bytecode
orangesnowfox: Can you exec that?
XeroOl: maybe?
King_Coda: i think i fell asleep
XeroOl: is your <100 python functional or imperative?
XeroOl: I'm trying to see how this could be 20 chars shorter
XeroOl: and I just don't see it
King_Coda: *snore* :sleepy::zzz:
XeroOl: ie, do you use `zip` / `map`, or `for`
yassineben: slm
TobiasA: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
TobiasA: /me
**TobiasA slaps around a bit with a large fishbot
**TobiasA slaps me around a bit with a large fishbot
XeroOl: okay I got down to 115 by being less functional
IvesL: but that wont do in a long run without getting the unicode thing
**King_Coda is bored and is leaving chat. no offense guys.
IvesL: im really interested in that part
**King_Coda says to keep doing whatever you're doing
**TobiasA is telling king coda not die
**King_Coda doesn't really care
**TobiasA slaps King_Coda around a bit with a large fishbot
TobiasA: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
TobiasA: :ramen:
Kitkat260: stop slaping each other
Kitkat260: what other open channels are there?
Kitkat260: any one
Kitkat260: ?
TobiasA: what is a channel?
Kitkat260: chats
TobiasA: nope
Kitkat260: ok
King_Coda: #clash
King_Coda: Alex-1 is here
King_Coda: wth were you guys doing in clash channel
XeroOl: wait there's a clash channel?
XeroOl: woah
Westicles: #ru #fr #in
KiwiTae: orangesnowfox its 16bits encoding of your code
orangesnowfox: ?
KiwiTae: ascii char contains 8bits
orangesnowfox: yeah
KiwiTae: chinese ones are 16bits
orangesnowfox: Wait, what utf encoding
KiwiTae: so take your code as a string utf16 encoding
KiwiTae: it gives you the chinese version
KiwiTae: then u can exec('encodedstr".decode()) or smth like that
KiwiTae: got an overhead of 40smth chars though
orangesnowfox: ah, if it's utf16 that makes sense
orangesnowfox: I was thinking utf-8 lol
KiwiTae: XeroOl want me to check your version maybe i can hint some tips
Kitkat260: anyone here in their teens
Kitkat260: ?
Westicles: According to previous chat, the overhead in python/js/ruby is all 25-26 characters
KiwiTae: damn Oo they do it better than what i tried lol
KiwiTae: gotta investigate
KiwiTae: :D
Westicles: exec(bytes('gibberish','u16')[2:])
King_Coda: who is gigolo and why did they follow me
KiwiTae: King_Coda you are famous dunno
KiwiTae: Westicles I didnt know you can do that Oo
King_Coda: I keep getting followers, and I'm literally NOT EVEN IN CHAT
Kitkat260: u code right?
King_Coda: Me? Yes...
Kitkat260: so thats why
TobiasA: damn king_coda is a social media celeb
King_Coda: ...
Kitkat260: amen
King_Coda: :expressionless:
King_Coda: :neutral_face:
Kitkat260: lol
King_Coda: :thinking:
TobiasA: king_coda should i follow you
Kitkat260: yes
KiwiTae: omg ZarthaxX is following you too wow
King_Coda: Ability to code -> Gain in followers
Kitkat260: yep
King_Coda: :thinking::thinking::thinking:???
TobiasA: omg i can't believe it i am talking to the one and only king coda
King_Coda: ??????????????????????
TobiasA: hehehe
Kitkat260: lol
King_Coda: WHO IS NISARGA
King_Coda: WHAT
KiwiTae: TobiasA you figured the velocity thing? ><
King_Coda: :interrobang:
TobiasA: yea yea
gigolo: hey vro
King_Coda: gigolo, explain
Kitkat260: hey
King_Coda: why are random people following me
TobiasA: gimme a sec lemme follow this king
King_Coda: I don't even contribute to anything on this website besides the occasional conversation in chat
gigolo: lol
King_Coda: And even then my input is of varying quality
Kitkat260: haha
Alshock: but it's for your output they follow you :P
King_Coda: TobiasA I swear
King_Coda: I guess so Alshock?
TobiasA: bruh the thing isn't coming up
King_Coda: No, not KiwiTae too!
Kitkat260: haha
KiwiTae: :joy: pewpew
gigolo: :joy:
TobiasA: i promise today or tomorrow i will follow you
King_Coda: Hover over my pfp?
Kitkat260: :joy:
TobiasA: and get your autograph
King_Coda: or you can type my username in the search bar
Kitkat260: yes!!!!
King_Coda: My... autograph
gigolo: Automation2000 hi
TobiasA: i'm trying but my internet is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo disgustang
King_Coda: :regional_indicator_k::regional_indicator_i::regional_indicator_n::regional_indicator_g::regional_indicator_c::regional_indicator_o::regional_indicator_d::regional_indicator_a:
TobiasA: king
King_Coda: there's my autograph
TobiasA: coda
TobiasA: i am never washing my screen again
King_Coda: wth
TobiasA: hehehehohohohaha
King_Coda: I really need to wash my screen
King_Coda: and my keyboard
TobiasA: really?
TobiasA: send a video that
TobiasA: when you do it
TobiasA: that would be amazing
ZarthaxX: KiwiTae i follow anyone that follows me
King_Coda: Um... why?
ZarthaxX: :P
TobiasA: a very good idea
King_Coda: ZarthaxX!
ZarthaxX: hai
King_Coda: Hello comrade
King_Coda: random people are following me for no reason again
ZarthaxX: happens :P
TobiasA: the whole site is frozen for me except chat
ZarthaxX: just random clashers or bots/trolls hehe
King_Coda: I haven't been active in chat for 2 days though...
King_Coda: Ugh, I will never understand this site.
King_Coda: TobiasA type chrome://restart into your address bar and hit enter
ZarthaxX: same here :P
King_Coda: that works for me
Jumpmaster: Can I ask for feedback on my contributions here, or is there a separate channel for that?
King_Coda: Go ahead Jumpmaster

King_Coda: TobiasA
King_Coda: You...
King_Coda: Jumpmaster testing your conts now
Jumpmaster: Cool, thanks
gigolo: well
TobiasA: how wonderful
gigolo: reverse is possible for that clash ??
TobiasA: i am now a follower of the king
gigolo: not that hard but yeah still good
King_Coda: Jumpmaster the first one is a little too mathy for my taste, but that's just my bias. It's a good contribution and works well enough.
King_Coda: Jumpmaster the second one is more my style. I like the "settlers of catan" thing you got going on. My coding skills are garbage, but the goal you stated was clear, so good job.
TobiasA: (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
Jumpmaster: Thanks!
Jumpmaster: Is the first one too mathy for reverse?
King_Coda: No, I find the mathy ones to be easiest for reverse.
KalamariKing: As long as its not something too complex, idk like multi-stage quantum calculus or smth, the mathy ones are fun
TobiasA: King_Coda are you still here
King_Coda: yes
TobiasA: how many bot programming games have you reached bronze league or higher?
KalamariKing: TobiasA have you gotten better at the csb thing?
King_Coda: non
King_Coda: *none
gigolo: well that csb is the simplest one right ?
TobiasA: i'm getting better
King_Coda: i don't code on here
KalamariKing: :0
TobiasA: but i'm still learning
TobiasA: waaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!
KalamariKing: You'll get there
TobiasA: you don't code here?
King_Coda: nope
King_Coda: not yet
King_Coda: still learning
TobiasA: then who are you?
King_Coda: i just lurk in chat like a weirdo
gigolo: :rolling_eyes:
TobiasA: i thought you were some kind of pro
King_Coda: What, no
King_Coda: What made you think that
TobiasA: i even followed you:expressionless:
King_Coda: I'm still learning C#
King_Coda: And I do participate in CoC when I feel like it
TobiasA: well you sound like a pro
King_Coda: but i haven't made a contribution yet
TobiasA: bet you are a pro in c#
King_Coda: Eh
King_Coda: I'm modest
Philbot: this chat is weird
King_Coda: indeed Philbot
TobiasA: pretty sure you're learning it for unity
King_Coda: yup
TobiasA: am i right or am i right
TobiasA: brings back memories
King_Coda: Unity and VR
TobiasA: noice
KalamariKing: Programming for VR is awesome
TobiasA: indeed
FloatingQueen: Hey how to join coding escape game, I am kinda stuck :grimacing:
TobiasA: i was wondering that too
King_Coda: https://escape.codingame.com/games
TobiasA: just like that
KiwiTae: https://www.oculus.com/experiences/rift/1421550817913990/?locale=en_US I did that one with my team some time back
KiwiTae: ported from mobile to vr
FloatingQueen: @King_Coda Thanks !
King_Coda: yw
FloatingQueen: It says I need invitation link, when I go to frineds link it just show that I am currently #483
nisarga: You need to request for an early access...then they will mail you regarding the access.
KalamariKing: Imagine winning a coc with only 20% correct
VizGhar: you vs bot? :D
KalamariKing: Nope lol
KalamariKing: Me v 7 others
TobiasA: rip others
VizGhar: mg... what type?
VizGhar: reverse?
KalamariKing: Shortest
KalamariKing: So we all had the full 15 minutes
KalamariKing: I was the only one without a 0%
KalamariKing: The challenge was way too hard for a coc, something like determining if a string alternates between consonants and vowels, with double letters collapsed into one letter
King_Coda: I need assistance
TobiasA: damn
King_Coda: But it requires patience and intelligence. If you do not possess either of these then you don't need to answer the question.
TobiasA: i don't possess the second
King_Coda: So please, tell me why...
King_Coda: ...I keep getting followers
TobiasA: ummmm
TobiasA: eeehhhhh.....
LPNay: i am new to coding help
TobiasA: i think
TobiasA: i dunno why
TobiasA: no need to worry
TobiasA: why?
TobiasA: because i am here
TobiasA: what seems to be the problem new guy?
VizGhar: Is it just me, or quality of this chat is going down like too rapidly? Is it because of upcomming contest?
LPNay: im not sure how to write the code
KalamariKing: VizGhar yeah I think so
KalamariKing: LPNay could you elaborate?
LPNay: Basically i couldn't achieve the goal because I wasn't sure how to type it in the script
KalamariKing: Which puzzle?
KalamariKing: That describes literally everything on this site
LPNay: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/72a2239e-28b4-49cb-ab60-9a7e9a74c028
KalamariKing: So in simpler terms, what is it asking for?
LPNay: Search for the smallest number, for every case i need to have an answer within regular interger range
KalamariKing: The smallest number where what is true?
LPNay: the sum of digits n and m equls m-n or n-m
Kitkat260: #at
KalamariKing: Since you're searching for the smallest number, it's gonna be a loop starting at 1 and going up. If the loop var + the given var = either of those, you have your answer
Kitkat260: its -1
LPNay: AH ok, just wasnt sure how to translate it into a script
KalamariKing: Kitkat260 4 + (-1) != 4 - (-1)
Reduced, 4-1 != 4+1
Kitkat260: oh
KalamariKing: That's the challenge, it changes per var n
KalamariKing: Now I have a clash to win, I got 4min 10sec, brb
LPNay: gl
Kitkat260: a lot of people r following me :)
Kitkat260: *KalamariKing i msg u
KalamariKing: I saw hold on
Kitkat260: ok
Kitkat260: hurry i got 3 mins and 20 seconds
King_Coda: I hate the stackoverflow community
KalamariKing: We back
Kitkat260: ok
KalamariKing: King_Coda it's so toxic
King_Coda: there are people on there who downvote crap just because they feel like it. I just got a huge chunk of my reputation taken out because of downvoters
King_Coda: I was 1 reputation away from getting a new priveliage
KalamariKing: Awwh :(
KalamariKing: Would you post the q here?
KalamariKing: Like the link
TobiasA: i just finished the coding escape tutorial
TobiasA: just to find out there is no single player mode
KalamariKing: King_Coda I saw you had asked for assistance earlier, sorry I couldn't reply, but are you still wondering?
King_Coda: oh hold on
KalamariKing: TobiasA ik it was so depressing to find out I needed multiple people
King_Coda: KalamariKing you want me to post the link?
KalamariKing: If you want
KalamariKing: I'm willing to help
King_Coda: ok
King_Coda: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67374906/simple-ai-duels-in-ruby-or-python it's a long one
King_Coda: I honestly just want the upvote at this point, i don't even need the question to be answered KalamariKing
KalamariKing: This is the fencing thing right?
KalamariKing: Or something similar?
King_Coda: yep
King_Coda: YO
King_Coda: i just got 6 reputation out of nowhere
King_Coda: GOD the stackoverflow mods are SALTY
King_Coda: wth
KalamariKing: Lmao ikr
KalamariKing: StackOverflow is way too toxic to be helpful :/
King_Coda: this guy named "chris" just left some REALLY nasty comments on my question
King_Coda: he's a mod and he just shut the question down
KalamariKing: Yeah I saw
King_Coda: idefk why
KalamariKing: He didn't even take the time to read the question to determine that its length was necessary
King_Coda: EXACTLY
JRBionic: Stack overflow is my absolute last resort, it never used to be so gatekeepy, now they behave like discord mods if you pop a meme in general
TobiasA: that's why i never use stackoverflow
TobiasA: it is overrated
King_Coda: I only wanted to get some privs
King_Coda: now i see my mistake
King_Coda: i will not use stackoverflow
KalamariKing: JRBionic "like discord mods if you pop a meme in general" that's the best description I've heard yet lol
JRBionic: *bows*
King_Coda: :clap:
JRBionic: Tbh I am still in university, and im used to the gatekeeping now, but I remember getting a scathing comment from a S/O Mod in my first year, really put me off
Westicles: Lots of mentally ill people flock to programming. They like the structure
KalamariKing: Now you've made me question my sanity
TobiasA: :joy:
JRBionic: We are all nuts, we spend our free time doing complex math on a website. this is not behavior of sane people lol
King_Coda: JRBionic I just got a question shut down because i was "too long". There was no short way to ask the question!!!!!!
JRBionic: I honestly think they just do that because they can't be arsed to read it
JRBionic: typical desk jockey with one too many mountain dew bottles on the floor my friend
TobiasA: being insane is the only way to stay sane these days
JRBionic: Amen
King_Coda: indeed
Westicles: Pick a random wiki page and change something and see who crawls out from under a rock to complain. Same crowd
JRBionic: I remember thinking that programming would be great when I took this degree, now I spend my evening searching for missing semi-colons, not quite the Faang lifestyle I had in mind
TobiasA: :joy:
TobiasA: RIP
JRBionic: RIP indeed
KalamariKing: I'm back, how toxic should I be to the mods
KalamariKing: 1. I don't wanna get banned but 2. Their behavior isn't right
struct: please have mercy on me :(
KalamariKing: Nah, s/o mods
King_Coda: No not you struct
TobiasA: toxic**10000
King_Coda: stackoverflow
KalamariKing: Btw struct I wanna talk to you, privately, if you're open, there's someone who I think is relatively new who I also believe is... how do I say, not interested in ADULTS per se
King_Coda: kitkat260?
JRBionic: We need to make a new stackoverflow, with blackjack and hookers ( points for getting the reference)
KalamariKing: King_Coda yup
King_Coda: I understand the words, but not the reference
King_Coda: yeah she was hitting on me a few days ago
TobiasA: 0 points for me
King_Coda: and she asked me out
King_Coda: it was weird
struct: I would talk with thibaud or email cg
TobiasA: woah
King_Coda: anyways, blaiseebuth warned her
struct: im just a chat moderator
KalamariKing: I know that there are some younger folk on this website, in this chat, and I know that some of them would willingly give her what she is asking for (name, age, loc, etc)
Jumpmaster: sounds like phishing
TobiasA: things went left real quick
KalamariKing: Jumpmaster kinda, but in a perv-y kinda way
struct: KalamariKing emailing cg or Messaging thibaud on discord would be the best way
King_Coda: if she is still misbehaving, then i think she might have to be banned, seeing as she's already been warned by a moderator
Westicles: kk260 is almost certainly some guy from the gov't
TobiasA: fax
JRBionic: Gross
KalamariKing: struct I don't have discord tho -- as in not allowed to, so I can't just make an acc
KalamariKing: Sorry for 'dirtying' up the chat, on a different topic: s/o ban speedrun, left a toxic comment to a toxic mod, let's see how fast I'm gone
KalamariKing: King_Coda I promise I'm still working on this, I haven't forgotten
JRBionic: KalamariKing (sorry not sure how to tag ) just seen your comment lol
King_Coda: lol KalamariKing you really don't have to
struct: I think this email should do helpdesk@codingame.com
JRBionic: I give it 5 minutes before Chris big potatoes bans you
struct: Also I think you can report the profile.
King_Coda: "Whoever just downvoted this question should read the whole question and realize the length is necessary, then read this answer and realize that I'm not balancing a downvote, but am voting for the content of the question. Thank you for your generous input, though, Chris!"
JRBionic: An outstanding response good sir
King_Coda: Indeed :clap:
TobiasA: :clap::ok_hand:
JRBionic: After all this I have completely forgotten the solution to the problem i'm working on, I was so close :joy:
TobiasA: i feel you
KalamariKing: Lol sorry JRBionic
KalamariKing: Gl tho, I'm working on something too and forgot
JRBionic: How do you tag me?
JRBionic: First time using the chat on this site
KalamariKing: I only learned a few days ago
KalamariKing: Simply type out the username
struct: just type the person name, you can use tab to auto complete
King_Coda: JRBionic just type the name of the person you want to tag like this
KalamariKing: Wait you can use tab to autocomplete?
King_Coda: struct :angry:
JRBionic: King_Coda woah
JRBionic: Did that work?
King_Coda: yes. type "ki" then press tab
King_Coda: yes JRBionic
KalamariKing: King_Coda :o
KalamariKing: SICK
JRBionic: outstanding
TobiasA: KalamariKing
JRBionic: Thanking you all kindly
TobiasA: i am just knowing this after 3 years
King_Coda: Really?
King_Coda: I found this out on my first day.
TobiasA: yesh
KalamariKing: us programmers, among the best at programming, all marvelling at the simple features of a chat client
JRBionic: I can hear the respective "ooh's and aah's" Amongst us
JRBionic: now that's some fancy 1's and 0's
TobiasA: that's how you know there is a screw loose
Aleximimus: Hello everyone. Has anyone done the easy Asteroids puzzle?
JRBionic: Aleximimus Yes
TobiasA: asteroids?
TobiasA: where is that?
JRBionic: TobiasA I'm pretty sure it's the first easy puzzle you are greeted with
TobiasA: oh is it onboarding
JRBionic: I believe so TobiasA
TobiasA: or whatever they call it
Westicles: All the US programmers I know are current or former H-1Bs
TobiasA: well goodnight hoomans
Aleximimus: I have passes all test cases but can't pass a validator and I have no idea what to change anymore
JRBionic: What's a H-1B
TobiasA: my eyes are heavy bye
JRBionic: and goodnight TobiasA
Aleximimus: byw TobiasA
TobiasA: i have to try this one more time
Westicles: immigrant work visa
TobiasA: JRBionic
TobiasA: how wonderful
King_Coda: goodnight TobiasA
JRBionic: TobiasA Marvelous
TobiasA: such a wonderful feature
jacek: Aleximimus what puzzle
Aleximimus: Asteroids , by XorZy
KalamariKing: I hated that one
KalamariKing: The last test sucked, fsr I couldn't get it to append a row
Aleximimus: I hate it as well. Validator 10 won't pass for some reason
JRBionic: What lanhuasge are you writing in Aleximimus
Aleximimus: C++
JRBionic: Ah, not my realm then
KalamariKing: I know SOME cpp
Tannazsh: hi
Aleximimus: If i only knew why validator is failing i could fix it. Only thing i got to work with is test cases, which always pass
Aleximimus: No matter how i round the coordinates
KalamariKing: Yeah I got like 70% on this and said screw it
Aleximimus: KalamariKing how did you calculate coordinates?
Westicles: Here you go
Westicles: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/60b035d7-3de9-4ede-bc87-6fc58bc9cbb8
Aleximimus: Oh awesome!
Aleximimus: Thank you very much! <3
KalamariKing: Thanks Westicles! I'm stealing that too
Aleximimus: You are a life savior
KalamariKing: Wait how'd you get that?
Westicles: The last line of the output got cut off, it is ............H.......
jacek: he slept with the creator
King_Coda: lol
KalamariKing: Wait a sec you don't have to make the third frame bigger if the asteroids go off-frame
Aleximimus: Nah. If they out of frame you just leave them be
Aleximimus: Meaning you ignore those
KalamariKing: AWWH F
KalamariKing: THATS WHY I WAS FAILING
Aleximimus: Yeeeey i did it
BlaiseEbuth: Yo. What was the ping for?
BlaiseEbuth: What happened?
BlaiseEbuth: What have I missed
BlaiseEbuth: Tell me everything :ear:
Aleximimus: I don't know who pinged you. People were helping me with the asteroids puzzle
King_Coda: KitKat260
King_Coda: She's at it again
Aleximimus: Westicles was kind enough to provide validator that was bothering me and i finally did it ^^
BlaiseEbuth: gg
BlaiseEbuth: With you King_Coda?
King_Coda: nope
King_Coda: other people
King_Coda: she stopped talking to me after you warned her, but now she's gone into chat again
jacek: oO
Aleximimus: btw whats that sign next to your names guys?
Aleximimus: Ah never mind
BlaiseEbuth: :weary:
Aleximimus: I'm just being stupid haha
jacek: time?
BlaiseEbuth: :rofl:
Aleximimus: :joy:
Astrobytes: miklla: holy crap
King_Coda: The sign next to their names states them as a moderator
BlaiseEbuth: Oh. Isee
jacek: ?
King_Coda: Astrobytes!
miklla: Astrobytes :)
Aleximimus: King_Coda yeah i realised the moment after i asked lol
Astrobytes: jacek: Clobber
jacek: :F
Astrobytes: Not bad at all!
Care to explain anything miklla? :D
jacek: i bet some math stuff like d&b
King_Coda: Dungeons and Bragons
jacek: math is for those who can't brute force out the solution :unamused:
BlaiseEbuth: KalamariKing have you talk to struct ?
miklla: alpha-beta with yeadscratcher heuristic and complex datastructures which apply theory of partizan games
miklla: headscratcher*
struct: blaise I told him to talk with thibaud or email cg
miklla: still much to improve
BlaiseEbuth: Hmm k, cause I already warned her about that.
struct: Its some weird stuff
struct: yeah he told me so
Astrobytes: miklla: Very, very nice. I'm impressed.
KalamariKing: BlaiseEbuth not yet, I got sidetracked and just got back, lemme read the backlog of msg's yet (I might have missed something important, evident of your ping)
BlaiseEbuth: Of course you are. As a cat you love headscratchers...
struct: I finally made some progress on eval :)
jacek: stc?
Astrobytes: Nice struct :)
Astrobytes: lol Blaise
struct: Its something else jacek I use stc as decoy
struct: Maybe its yinsh boss
miklla: I used Sprague–Grundy theory in D&B, pretty simple, but clobber requires theory of partizan games, much complex stuff
KalamariKing: BlaiseEbuth kitkat (idw ping) was at it again
KalamariKing: So many mods rn, hey guys
Aleximimus: More mods then non-mods lol
JRBionic: Commenting to balance out the mod-nonmod Ratio :grin:
Astrobytes: Miklla: Yeah, I remember Smits was doing the whole nimstring thing in D&B, I didn't even try that one properly yet.
Your Clobber bot is a great achievement.
miklla: still big room to improve, sad that context will interrupt me from that :)
Astrobytes: Well, don't forget where you were at and you can resume after :D
King_Coda: agh
Astrobytes: jacek: fixit. ezpz
King_Coda: i didn't get any school done today, crap
Astrobytes: Home schooling?
King_Coda: why am I so ineffecient
Westicles: Solomon Grundy... I'll have to look into that
King_Coda: yes, homeschooling
Astrobytes: All I know is he was born on a Monday Westicles :P
King_Coda: i'm behind by 11 assignments
JRBionic: King_Coda I spend my life in a perpetual cycle of Stressing about the work I need to do, and then relaxing because i'm stressing myself too much :joy:
Astrobytes: Fix your concentration King_Coda
BlaiseEbuth: Use my starter and go legend
King_Coda: Okay DAD
King_Coda: But I will concentrate better
KalamariKing: King_Coda 1. You got this, take it in chunks 2. lol me too, but I'm not homeschooled and grades just came in and :o yeesh
King_Coda: I need to catch up and do some of my future work in advance so I don't have to do any school on my birthday
King_Coda: I turn 16 on May 5
Westicles: Homeschooled means you just have to talk your Mom into giving you A's?
King_Coda: No
King_Coda: Online school
BlaiseEbuth: So bad... You're a day too young...
King_Coda: i need to do 9 assignments a day for the next to days to complete my goal
King_Coda: shouldnt be too hard
King_Coda: wish me luck
King_Coda: *2 days not to days
BlaiseEbuth: Yeah... Luck... May the 4th be with you
Astrobytes: Oh sht, May 4th is my friend's borthday, thx for the reminder Blaise.
Astrobytes: *birthday
Westicles: cinco de mayo, not a bad day for a birthday
orangesnowfox: May 4th is a family member's birthday...
Hjax: @Astrobytes are they a Star Wars fan
KalamariKing: orangesnowfox the fourth is strong in this one
Astrobytes: Hjax: Not religiously but a fan of the original movie series yes :D
orangesnowfox: mm, he did like starwars iirc, it's been a few years
Hjax: star wars day is a neat birthday to have
Westicles: Ouch, mother's day this weekend. Got to buy something for the old bat
Hjax: my birthday should be called Science Day, date of the Trinity Nuclear Test, date of the Apollo 11 Launch
Astrobytes: I've tried to come up with star wars related gifts in the past but it usually ends up being a crate of lager or a litre of vodka
orangesnowfox: lol
orangesnowfox: "shirt"
orangesnowfox: my birthday already has a holiday name, I don't get to name it :pensive:
Astrobytes: Hiroshima Day is 1 day before my birthday :/
hahajokes: oof
Hjax: if you look hard enough, im sure you can find something unslightly on every day
BlaiseEbuth: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Month_day
Westicles: Astrobytes, conceived on Guy Fawkes Day?
KalamariKing: Rip my birthday is on the famed disappearance of malaysian airlines 370
KalamariKing: Awwh two days too early to be the 69th day of the year... we were this close...
orangesnowfox: My date of birth was a couple months after 9/11 ._.
Astrobytes: BlaiseEbuth: You'll like this, I share a birthday with Elizabeth Báthory
BlaiseEbuth: <3
Astrobytes: Westicles: lol
BlaiseEbuth: My birthday is the day when Hitler took the lead of the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht...
orangesnowfox: Just occurred to me, someone born on October 11th of 2012 is 9 (rounding their age up to nearest year), born on 10/11/12
Astrobytes: nice
r-k-g: I find the fact that someone born in 2012 is 9 crazier than the date thing
r-k-g: how has it been that many years since 2012!
BlaiseEbuth: Ok. I have some cool co-birthday: Charles Lindbergh, George Romero and Alice Cooper.
Astrobytes: George Romero and Alice Cooper! Awesome :D
BlaiseEbuth: Bleuuarggg
Astrobytes: Lindbergh ofc is cool, but George Romero for starters
firstPlayer: hoi
KalamariKing: Hello firstPlayer
KalamariKing: Also: I left for like 15 min and we're still on birthdays?
KalamariKing: 20 minutes, correction, after looking back at the msgs
Westicles: We could talk more about the OKW. I really don't know much at all about Jodl
BlaiseEbuth: Birthdays are life! literally...
KalamariKing: BlaiseEbuth lol
Westicles OKWhat?
Westicles: ^^ Oberkommando der Wehrmacht
KalamariKing: Huh
KalamariKing: You were saying something earlier about Oktoberfest right
Westicles: That they are pansies for cancelling it?
KalamariKing: 'pansies' lol
r31415: Hi! Is there a way to disable the language-assist-popups in the coding window?
Astrobytes: Other than closing the window, I don't believe there are I'm afraid
Hjax: a lot of people prefer to develop in a separate IDE, and then copy paste into the web interfact
Hjax: interface*
Astrobytes: Hjax beat me to it
r31415: Yeah, I know why. ;)
Astrobytes: There's some browser-based plugins too
KalamariKing: I was gonna say, aren't there plugins
r31415: (There are even vim-bindings, but unfortunately, they are quite broken.)
BlaiseEbuth: https://www.codingame.com/forum/t/community-resources/187070
KalamariKing: Thanks Blaise
r31415: Thanks.
Astrobytes: Yeah, that's not CG's fault, it's just Monaco. They and others have made a bunch of changes to it, so do feel free to contribute
Astrobytes: BlaiseEbuth: How is that not pinned anyway
WaterCooledTopHat_3613: hi
BlaiseEbuth: Never the CG fault... :rolling_eyes:
WaterCooledTopHat_3613: its me again
Astrobytes: No in this case it's the Monaco devs
KalamariKing: Hello WaterCooledTopHat_3613, interesting name
WaterCooledTopHat_3613: :grin:
WaterCooledTopHat_3613: ive been in this chat
r31415: But it's CGs fault, that everyone here produces bad/ugly code. ;)
Hjax: i see some discussion about adding an architecture flag the rust compiler on this site, i wonder how much of a performance difference it makes
KalamariKing: I gtg, cy'all later
BlaiseEbuth: Technically it's pinned in the forum Astrobytes
WaterCooledTopHat_3613: :confused:
Astrobytes: I must have my categories mixed up :D
Hjax: right now rust isnt set to to autodetect architecture, which means its probably not optimizing as much as it can
WaterCooledTopHat_3613: :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:
Astrobytes: can't you specify it in rust?
Hjax: its a command line arg to the compiler, someone is asking for it to be set properly in the languages discussion on the forum
Astrobytes: well, I mean like arch=native or something
Hjax: yeah, thats what is being asked for
Hjax: im kind of surprised it wasnt like that already
Astrobytes: gotcha, sorry
BlaiseEbuth: No pragma in Rust ?
Astrobytes: That's why they're rusting
Hjax: i dont think any language comes close to the C family in terms of preprocessor tricks
Astrobytes: They'll change it to Shiny! once the problems are ironed out :P
Hjax: im not aware of any sort of gaming you can do to the compiler in your code
Hjax: otherwise i would have specified release builds myself ages ago
Hjax: instead of praying for codingame to fix it
Hjax: (which they did, yay)
Astrobytes: You could send binaries in multis though
Hjax: thats true, but im lazy
Hjax: i want it to just work
Astrobytes: Me too lol
Hjax: and now it does, which is great, rust development wont suck during the contest
Hjax: any we are on a shiny new release of rust
Hjax: and*
Astrobytes: And testing against Rustaceans won't be so awful either :)
BlaiseEbuth: Be happy, they will never update it again
Hjax: im trying to break my dependency on java and python in contests
Hjax: both of those languages have issues when you only have 50 ms to work with
Astrobytes: Embrace the language you prefer to use and make it work for you.
BlaiseEbuth: Pleonasm, Hjax
Hjax: rust is becoming a pretty marketable skill anyway
Astrobytes: Some contests python or j*** are gonna be just fine, others, not so
Hjax: so its worth improving at
Astrobytes: Yes, it's growing a lot
Hjax: ill never stop laughing at my PR2 bot
Hjax: its literally, import numpy, run munkres, get top 20
Hjax: definitely an easy python game
Astrobytes: the python one with the imported munkres?
Hjax: yep
Astrobytes: lol yeah
Hjax: its actually such a brain dead bot, i can hardly take credit for it
Hjax: i didnt even implement the algo myself
Hjax: but thats what makes it amusing to me
Astrobytes: But you did make it work for you.
Astrobytes: The difficulty of that notwithstanding
Hjax: i wonder if theres any other games that you can trivially do well on with an "import scipy"
Astrobytes: probably a few
BlaiseEbuth: import win
Astrobytes: import Blaise
Competition dies
BlaiseEbuth: Yeah that's a module that ban the opponent
Astrobytes: import sin.vanity
BlaiseEbuth: import sin.*
Astrobytes: I only import my favourites
BlaiseEbuth: Me too
Westicles: They say if you list off the deadly sins, the one you think of last is the one you have a problem with
BlaiseEbuth: That's probably why I never can remember any of them...
Astrobytes: I only remember vanity from Devil's Advocated
Astrobytes: *Advocate
Astrobytes: And maybe some others from 7even if I watch it again
struct: I hate this chat bug where I cant scroll
Astrobytes: Or Se7en whatever it was called
Astrobytes: IT's getting
Astrobytes: worse by the day struct
Westicles: Shazam as well

davilla: Is there a way to see all the contributions I've approved?
davilla: Sorry if I've asked before.
Westicles: nope
davilla: d'oh OK thanks
davilla: I guess I can just go thu them
davilla: all
davilla: mine would be fairly recent
Westicles: Are you looking for ones that got 3 approvals? Those you can search
davilla: yes, I found one
davilla: but it doesn't show the approval comments, so I can't see the code I posed :(
Westicles: https://eulerschezahl.herokuapp.com/codingame/puzzles/?q=davilla&category=ANY&comments=on
davilla: ah yes
davilla: it's incomplete, so maybe I'll just have to start bookmarking
Westicles: lol, you should have asked the question you wanted answered
Westicles: http://chat.codingame.com/pastebin/1a9b98b1-496b-47b9-a6bc-a8884c0c7da3
davilla: wait, is that my code?
Westicles: yeh
davilla: wow, unrecognizable
davilla: OK cool you're a magician
Westicles: It doesn't seem to work though...
davilla: no prob I'll fix it... as I recall, I wasn't level 20 yet so I didn't actually approve this one
davilla: in fact looking thu these I think this might be the only one, so maybe I learned my lesson soon enough
Westicles: Does this work for you?
Westicles: https://www.codingame.com/contribute/view/60377ec4cd0c7daea3edf9a699d0e72a4983
davilla: how did you do that? teach me your powers, make me your apprentice my wizard master
Westicles: You can search by title on that herokuapp link, then it gives you a link to the contribution
davilla: oh wow I did that but missed the link
davilla: awesome, very useful, I approve now
spiralpinata: hi!
davilla: hi there
spiralpinata: this game is kinda cool
spiralpinata: i am bad at writing shorter code
spiralpinata: but I can do it pretty fast enough
davilla: yeah, I don't know if it's a good thing to be good at writing cryptic code :-P
Notter: Imagine a chase scene where you have to solve CoC puzzles to advance forward
BigFatDecker: i guess what im asking is how could implement a list into my code
