<@luxidream> shift+o 00:34 <@luxidream> options 00:34 Thank you, I remember seeing the "enable numpad" but skimmed it thinking it was referring to on my keyboard 00:34 you might also enjoy a variant that is winnable 00:35 but the numpad will give you a big leg up ^_^ 00:35 [hdf-us] [evil] eraserhead97 (Mon Dwa Fem Neu) destroyed dbanethacker the giant zombie, and former Skirmisher, on T:8514 00:35 <@luxidream> playable* 00:35 I heard it had a lot of non-combat content is why I wanted to give it a shot but this seems less user friendly than some other variants lol 00:35 <@luxidream> it's clearly winnable, whether or not it is playable is still debatable 00:35 <@luxidream> what kind of non-combat content are you looking for 00:36 I don't know in particular, was just looking to explore around a bit with different stuff 00:36 I've played like, angband before 00:36 And a few years ago, nethack 00:36 but nethack kinda bored me 00:36 there's not a robust story system in any nethack variant. no conversation trees 00:37 nah nothing like that, I am into CDDA a lot so im not dead in the water but ive never broken into the telnet/ssh/terminal stuff 00:37 dnethack has some neat quests where you can either complete the quest normally, or betray your quest leader. but all the "conversations" are still just a narrator reading a wall of text 00:37 I just heard nethack has a lot of interactive systems and this seemed like a big variant 00:37 <@luxidream> dnethack has a lot of good quality content 00:37 <@luxidream> I'd recommend you check it out 00:39 I just may if this doesnt

nethack@hardfought.org 00:45 okay, done and registered 00:45 is there a difference aside from just bein a different server 00:45 like version wise? 00:46 <@luxidream> hardfought generally has the newest version of most variants 00:46 <@luxidream> it also has the newest version of vanilla nethack, 3.7.0, still in development 00:46 you can totally play slam-extended, but unlike slam itself, slam-ex has traps that 1) you can't see 2) they don't tell you they were triggered 3) they make your UI unreadable for thousands of turns 00:46 there's a player, amateurhour, who enjoys this, so maybe get the other side of the story from him! 00:47 <@luxidream> there is also a lot of inappropriate content that I'm not a big fan of 00:47 Probably will try dnethack then 00:47 <@luxidream> but better players than me have suffered through that 😄 00:47 Like what 00:48 <@luxidream> mostly related to the variant author's obsession with shoes 00:48 <@luxidream> some other things 00:49 well dnethack LOOKS way more like what I was used to 00:49 Is there a way to go back on these menus? 00:49 using spacebar to go forward 00:49 <@luxidream> use < > to scroll back and forth 00:49 Thank you 00:50 Does dnethack have a bit more of that non combat stuff I was hearing about that was contained in slash'em 00:50 Referred to on reddit as "kitchen-sink" 00:52 <@luxidream> dnethack is similar to slashem, adding lots of new artifacts and mechanics 00:53 <@luxidream> however, I think it's less unbalanced and takes more diverse inspirations than vanilla slashem 00:53 <@luxidream> disclaimer: I have not

did it in perl 10:39 except for the first task, which was in SQL 10:39 -!- tommo has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds] 10:39 they gave me an hour and fifteen minutes to do four tasks 10:39 the SQL one took me a whole hour 10:39 rip 10:39 oh, sorry, they gave two hours and 15 minutes 10:39 but yeah a simple SQL query took me nearly half hte time 10:39 the perl shit was fine 10:39 lol 10:39 hat was the query? 10:40 SELECT something, COUNT(DISTINCT other_thing) FROM table GROUP BY something ORDER BY something ASC; 10:40 that was literally the solution 10:40 took me ages to figure it out 10:40

out how to do that query lmao 10:41 :I 10:41 i suck at SQL 10:41 and they are gonna know this 10:42 because the online IDE saves what you're doing at unknown intervals (maybe it even gives them full edit history, who knows) 10:42 aoei: That seems like fairly straightforward SQL. Admittedly, I prefer to use SQL through a wrapper layer and put most of the logic into the higher-level language (almost anything is higher-level than SQL) when there isn't a specific need to optimize. 10:42 like i said jonadab 10:42 i suck at SQL 10:42 leave me along :< 10:42 Yeah. 10:42 alone* 10:43 I mean, SQL isn't my forte either. 10:43 hopefully they think i'm good enough at Perl to still be worth hiring LOL 10:43 we shall see 10:43 So much easier to just slurp a whole table into an array of hashrefs and then do whatever you need in Perl :-) 10:43 that's quite a basic SQL. next time cheat and ask us :-) 10:43 bhaak: LOL 10:43 yeah i shoulda just cheated 10:44 amateurhour: SELECT * FROM hats WHERE type = 'bobble' AND wearer = 'doggo' 10:44 who knows, maybe they still think im not totally useless 10:44 but have a good laugh at the crap i tried to do 10:44 that didn't work 10:44 rofl 10:44 Hey, if you completed the whole test in the allotted time, that may count for something. 10:44 i completed it all and i think i did it all correctly too 10:44 [hdf-eu] [un] Singhend (Wiz Gno Mal Neu), 1442 points, T:1356, killed by a giant ant 10:45 but they don't run the full set of tests when you click "run tests" 10:45 they only do the full set when you submit 10:45 i failed the demo test twice because of this 10:45 but that one you can repeat lol 10:45 It's pretty normal to have employees with different strengths and weaknesses, so having somebody who takes half the time on one little thing but still gets the rest done, isn't necessarily bad. You just make sure their manager knows to avoid assigning them that specific thing most of the time. 10:45 so i figured out where i was messing up 10:45 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i /guess/ 10:45 let's see 10:45 i did the thing 10:45 balls in their court now 10:46 [hdf-us] [nh370] shadowrider38 (Cav Dwa Mal Law) signified by divine providence, was chosen to carry Excalibur, on T:2096 10:46 "Hey, aoei, we have this eight-hundred-line stored function that takes 2+ seconds to complete, and we've been trying to optimize it for eighteen months, why don't you have a go?" 10:47 [hdf-us] [nh370] shadowrider38 (Cav Dwa Mal Law) destroyed shadowrider38's ghost, the former Aborigine, on T:2392 10:47 "It used to use seventeen cursors, but the guy before you got it down to thirteen.
