Your e-mail address isn't being shared via github auth
Is the fix to go to https://github.com/settings/profile
and put an email in the field labeled "Email (will be public)" ?
How does Coderwall allow github signups without me sacrificing an email to the public?

Can anybody please post the languages that are accepted? From what I have seen in some examples its only c++ ?
We support a variety of languages (https://www.hackerrank.com/environment) Can you tell me which examples you're talking about?
Any chance you can add F# to the supported languages list? It runs just fine on the same Mono/Ubuntu setup you have for C#. All you need to do is install from the Github distribution:
https://github.com/fsharp/fsharp
If you have any questions about setting it up, send a message to the `fsharp-opensource` group (https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/fsharp-op...) and we'll provide whatever help you need.
And if you guys do add F# support, send out a tweet with the `#fsharp` hashtag -- many F#'ers watch that hashtag for F# news/announcements.

You have ones listed that aren't available in the example picker. Do you still support the other languages by manually uploading? Any specifics we should know about.
I am interested in using Javascript fyi.

Oh thank you (and all). I just went straight into the competition links, and examples like this: https://gist.github.com/2625140
I'd love to be able to use D. Should be a dead simple port from C/C++.
If you are taking requests, Go would be nice as well.
Any chance of adding Common Lisp?
Yes, very soon. I'll keep you posted. What'd be the best way to update you once we go live on this?
I'll add a tickler to my calendar to check your site once or twice a week. Thanks!
https://www.hackerrank.com/environment lists all of the languages.
The dropdown has C, C++, Java, C#, PHP, Ruby, Python, Perl, Haskell, Clojure and Scala
https://www.hackerrank.com/environment lists Lisp, erlang, Lua, javascript and Brainfk (probably just for level 4 [1], don't think anyone who can be seriously considered programming in it for other levels) as well.

Did you guys look at the AI Challenge that was done by the guys over at the University of Waterloo (aichallenge.org)? I thought those competitions were extremely well done, and have been disappointed that they haven't come out with any new ones recently.
I was thinking about the same thing recently, and checked out their forums, only to learn that some kind of general organizational debacle has delayed the games indefinitely.
The core team of contest organizers is disbanded. Some of them cannot be contacted for a months and without them there can be no development (this is no about skills but about rights and ownership). - http://forums.aichallenge.org/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=3632#...

Yep, loved the ants challenge. We'll hopefully take the best of their concept and add it up on our site. This is our first contest (hackerrank.com/thanksgiving)
Ah great, I look forward to checking it out. Unfortunately I have to work during the day -- but for those giving the contest a shot, I recommend starting your research here:

Love the Norman Rockwell reference.
It looks cool, though there are still some things to fix. In split view, I wasn't able to test out the code. Also, I tried opening a link on the bottom in a new tab, but it opened in the current tab, causing me to lose my work.
Vivek, I tried signing up using Github but it threw the following error:
The change you wanted was rejected.
Maybe you tried to change something you didn't have access to.

What does that mean?
