  • Undoubtedly. But you agree that the crowdsourced knowledge base of existing answers is useful, no? That is what the islop searches and reproduces. It is more convenient than waiting for a rude answer. But I don’t think islop will give you a good answer if someone has not been bothered answer it before in SO.

    islop is a convenience, but you should fear the day you lose the original and the only way to get that info is some opaque islop oracle





















  • Hm, playing devil’s advocate, I think it is because the minus has not been defined as a string operation (e.g. it could pop the last char), so it defaults to the mathematical operation and converts both inputs into ints.

    The first is assumed to be a concat because one of the parcels is a string…

    It’s just doing a lot of stuff for you that it shouldn’t be in first place 🤭
