00:11:25 <duerig> Jix, last night you said that you refused to use C++ anymore. What was troubling you?
00:14:16 <jix> something didn't work as i expected and i was unable to find the bug
00:15:15 <jix> some people say they hate dynamic languages because they have too less compile time checks.. i hate c++ because the runtime error msgs doesn't help
00:15:15 <duerig> Want me to take a look? I'm enough of a C++ weenie that I can usually spot even obscure bugs.
00:15:50 <duerig> That is true. If you want decent error reporting in C++, you have to roll your own. :(
00:16:03 <jix> it's something with obscure memory management i just don't want to care about MM...
00:16:09 <jix> that's why i'm using lisp now
00:16:29 <jix> lisp is more intuitive for me
00:17:03 <duerig> I see.
00:17:40 <duerig> I don't suppose you'd let me look at the code that was troubling you?
00:18:08 <jix> i'd have you to send 3 c++ files that probably wont compile...
00:18:27 <jix> i have no idea where the bug is and my fixing attempts resulted in even more bugs
00:18:49 <jix> you'd probably have to rewrite the whole code too fix it
00:19:04 <duerig> I'd still be curious to see. If you want, you can just copy and paste them into the following form: http://www.xmission.com/~tyrecius/mail.html
00:19:06 <jix> and i've done more in lisp know that i did in c++ for that project
00:19:08 <duerig> And then I could read them.
00:22:08 <jix> done
00:23:00 <duerig> Thanks.
00:35:22 <duerig> I see the problem.
00:35:49 <duerig> And I see why you wanted a GC. :)
00:39:53 <duerig> The problem is that all of the pointers in your RHS object come from the vector in 'vector<AStarNode> snodes = current_node->subnodes();'. This is destroyed at the end of every 'step()' call. Thats why you get dangling pointers.
00:40:11 <duerig> And with a proper GC, all of that is moot 'cuz the GC will keep them around for you.
00:43:05 <jix> objc memory management would be ok too
00:48:51 <duerig> I am a bit puzzled about why your priority queue holds pointers rather than just the objects themselves.
00:49:39 <jix> i tried every pointer not pointer combination
00:50:05 <duerig> I see.
00:50:58 <duerig> Well, I don't blame you for being frustrated in a situation like that. It looks like it just calls out for a GC. :)
00:51:10 <duerig> I hope you are having more fun doing it in LISP. :)
00:51:20 <jix> i have
00:51:41 <duerig> Nifty. And thanks for letting me sate my curiosity.
00:57:00 <jix> HAH i just noticed a big error in my algorithm and it was just a little work to fix it!

02:17:38 <EgoBot> 99 bottles of beer on the walln
02:19:08 <jix> and that is the shortest code for that string without looping
02:19:43 <duerig> What exactly is RHS?
02:20:10 <jix> Right Hand Side
02:20:25 <duerig> I realize that. But what is it in the context of bf?
02:20:30 <jix> its just the right part of the code (the left is generated using genetic algorithms)
02:20:35 <jix> in context of bf it's nothing
02:21:07 <jix> in context of bf output code breading it's partitioning the program into data-cell-initialisation (left hand) and outputing (right hand)
02:21:19 <jix> and without left hand data is initialized to 0,0,0....
02:21:28 <duerig> Hmm. I see.
02:22:30 <duerig> So you wrote a search program which tries to find the shortest bf code which will initialize a set of cells to particular values, right?
02:23:22 <jix> no
02:23:46 <jix> i wrote a program to search the shortest code to output a givin string using a givin memory data
02:23:51 <jix> given
02:23:59 <duerig> Oh.
02:24:00 <duerig> I see.
02:25:41 <duerig> It is interesting that you had to use a graph search algorithm for that. I would have naively thought that it was a simpler problem than that.
02:26:15 <duerig> But I can see why you chose to do it that way in retrospect.
02:26:48 <jix> if you choose the shortest one with each step you may have to choose longer one later because you messed up the memory with the first shorter one
02:27:03 <duerig> *nod*
02:27:31 * jix has to refine the estimation function
02:28:50 <duerig> Hmm. I notice that there is no looping in your programs.
02:29:15 <jix> there is
02:29:18 <jix> in subnodes
02:29:38 <duerig> Er. I meant in the bf programs that you tried out.
02:29:43 <jix> ah right
02:29:58 <duerig> So looping just didn't happen to be advantageous in those circumstances?
02:30:15 <jix> looping would make A* kinda impossible..
02:30:35 <jix> i don't have a limited set of subnodes then
02:30:53 <duerig> Hmmm...
02:30:58 <jix> there are some special cases and i'm going to take advantage of them
02:31:14 <duerig> That could be a big issue. That means that you probably aren't being minimal.
02:31:25 <duerig> Hmm. Let me think.
02:31:42 <jix> take a look at most output codes.. the right side is like 90% loop less
02:34:53 <duerig> But there are all kinds of places where [<+>-] might stand in for arbitrarily long '+' strings.
02:35:27 <calamari> brb
02:35:30 -!- calamari has quit ("Leaving").
02:35:33 <duerig> Or [<->-], or having a different number of '<' and '>'.
02:35:54 <duerig> Er I mean the having more than one '<' and more than one '>' even if they are the same.
02:36:22 <duerig> And that is just something off the top of my head. It seems like there might be any number of situations.
02:36:28 <duerig> But that might make the whole problem untractable.
02:36:44 <jix> thats the point.. there might be any number of situations

02:37:33 <calaptop> re's
02:37:58 <duerig> Hmmm...
02:38:00 -!- calaptop has changed nick to calamari.
02:38:21 <duerig> Let me think about this. There may be some clever way we can get the best of both worlds.
02:40:05 <jix> i have an idea!
02:40:12 <jix> split the output into multiple rhs and lhs
02:40:31 <jix> the lhs can contain arbitrary code including all possible loop constructs
02:45:43 <duerig> I thought that the lhs was generated0.
02:45:48 <duerig> manually.
02:45:54 <jix> atm yes
02:46:03 <jix> later it's generated using genetic algorithms
02:46:08 <duerig> Ah.
02:46:16 <duerig> Why not do the rhs with GAs too?
02:46:25 <duerig> If we're in approximation-ville anyhow?
02:46:44 <jix> because it would take too long to generate an output that actually prints the wanted string
02:47:19 <duerig> Hmm... Su
02:47:31 <duerig> Gah. Cat on the keyboard. :)
02:48:21 <duerig> Hmm... Suppose that we start out with something relatively naive that outputs the data. Then we have output-preserving mutations? I'm not sure exactly how to do those, but if we could, then I think we'd be home free.
02:49:50 <duerig> Grr.. I dunno. Combination would be really hard.
02:49:55 <duerig> Let me think some more. :(
02:50:18 <jix> rule of making super cool programs:
02:50:24 <jix> make them working first
02:50:32 <jix> then make them super cool ;)
02:50:36 <duerig> Hahaha. Granted.
02:50:44 <duerig> But you've already got it working. :)
02:51:05 <jix> not all parts only a simple rhs not a rhs with good estimates

02:57:18 <duerig> Hmm. I've got an idea.
02:57:28 <duerig> You could do a Simulated Annealer.
02:59:08 <jix> g'night
02:59:13 <duerig> There would be a small number of ways that you could do a one-off modification of the bf code: insert a bounded loop, insert some number of left shifts or right shifts, insert some number of increments or decrements. And you could have a greedy completion.
02:59:16 <jix> it's 4am here...
02:59:16 <duerig> Ummm...
02:59:18 <duerig> Ok.

03:01:24 <duerig> The one I'm using does.
03:01:34 <duerig> Or rather it uses my own console's scrollback.

03:02:09 <calamari> blah that's what I'm using hehe
03:02:18 <calamari> my scrollback must be busted
03:02:21 <Robdgreat> I have a disassembler listing of a rom image, I might take this opportunity to port it manually
03:02:28 <Robdgreat> and learn a thing or two
03:02:31 <Robdgreat> or 80
03:02:44 <calamari> atari 800?
03:02:57 <Robdgreat> yeah
03:03:05 <duerig> What terminal are you using, calamari?
03:03:13 <calamari> if you have it in binary form you can run it on the atari800 emu
03:03:19 <Robdgreat> I'm gonna make a native atari basic interpreter
03:03:19 <Robdgreat> nope
03:03:23 <Robdgreat> don't want to have to use the emu
03:03:25 <Robdgreat> I have the emu
03:03:31 <calamari> duerig: not sure what you mean.. I'm using getty
03:03:50 <calamari> duerig: I'm not in x if that's what you're asking
03:04:18 <duerig> Your using windows?
03:04:26 <calamari> duerig: no, linux
03:04:35 <duerig> Ah. A text only screen.
03:04:37 <duerig> Ok.
03:04:38 <calamari> duerig: I call it ctrl-alt-f1 mode.. not sure of the real name of it
03:05:03 <duerig> In that case have you tried shift-pgup, ctl-pgup, and alt-pgup to see if they'll scrill?
03:05:12 <duerig> Er scroll?
03:05:24 <calamari> yep
03:05:39 <duerig> Ok. Then it is your terminal.
03:05:46 <calamari> shift-pgup doesn't do anything, the other combos give ~
03:05:51 <duerig> I'm not sure how to configure the text-only terminal on linux.
03:06:04 <calamari> duerig: no prob.,. neither do I :)
03:06:26 <duerig> My advice: Use x, then you can use an xterm and those are very configurable. :-)
03:06:37 <calamari> can't.. I have 26mb of disk space free :)
03:06:43 <duerig> Hahaha.
03:06:44 <duerig> Ok.
03:07:00 <calamari> I was thinking of setting up svgalib tho.. I understand links works with that :)
03:07:35 <calamari> if I can get a halfway decent web browser working I may decide to zip up the windows intall and that'll give me more room to play
03:08:52 <duerig> calamari, http://www.unixguide.net/linux/faq/07.06.shtml talks about messing around with the kernel source to change scroll-back behaviour.
03:09:01 <duerig> Maybe you can do that and recompile the kernel.
03:09:59 <calamari> thanks
03:12:50 <calamari> ahh it's called a vc :)
03:13:00 <calamari> "virtual console"
03:20:28 <duerig> I see.
03:20:37 <duerig> That might be a good search term for google. :)
03:24:32 <calamari> that doc helped a lot actually, thanks
03:24:50 <calamari> I have 6 vc's, and maybe that's why I can't scroll back... no remaining video memory

03:33:23 <duerig> Did it help?
03:33:46 <duerig> Be sure to make enough text to run off the top of the screen. Otherwise it won't scroll back regardless.
03:59:38 <lament> lock picking is interesting.
04:43:48 <duerig> lament, yes. But of limited utility.
05:14:10 <calamari> duerig: well yes & no
05:14:17 <calamari> it gave me a lot more scrollback
05:14:27 <calamari> however, I found out what happens to my scroll
05:14:39 <calamari> if I switch to another vc and back I lose all my scrollback
05:16:40 <Robdgreat> then don't ever switch to another vc
05:16:43 <Robdgreat> Simple.

08:11:19 <duerig> An imperfect solution would be to auto-log to a particular file. Then you could just 'less' the file. That would allow searching as well. But much less convenient than just scrollback.

08:34:07 <duerig> Yeah. The more I look at this, the more certain I become that you'd need to edit code in the kernel to get what you want.
08:34:16 <duerig> Sorry I couldn't be of more service.

15:30:09 -!- ihope has joined.
15:31:05 <ihope> I just made a binary lambda calculus syntax, which doesn't look very nice.
15:32:10 <ihope> program: 1[function]
15:32:11 <ihope> function: 0[function][function] or 11[identifier] or 10[lambda]
15:32:13 <ihope> lambda: [identifier][function]
15:32:14 <ihope> identifier: [pidentifier]11
15:32:16 <ihope> pidentifier: [null] or 0[pidentifier] or 10[pidentifier]
15:32:40 * Robdgreat head asplode.
15:32:59 <ihope> :-)
15:35:25 <ihope> Of course, it's not very efficient: the smallest syntactically valid program is number 447.
15:37:57 <Robdgreat> what's that do?
15:39:07 <ihope> It's the identity function.
15:42:40 <ihope> The K combinator is 3535, and the S combinator is too big to convert into decimal at the moment.
15:43:15 <ihope> Aha. S is 398949562099.
15:44:53 <int-e> why do you distinguish programs and functions?
15:45:19 <int-e> ah, to allow 0 prefixes. ok
15:50:49 <int-e> shouldn't that be 948705375987 to make a program?
15:52:50 <ihope> Um, yes.
15:54:18 <int-e> and the K is missing a pair of 11 ...
15:55:46 <int-e> (110111001111 = program lambda 11 lambda 011 identifier <missing>)
15:55:58 <ihope> Why so it is. So that means it's 14143?
15:56:13 <int-e> yep
15:58:02 <ihope> Okay. So does anybody know how to make the S combinator in Lisp?
16:05:20 <int-e> I'd say it's no fun, due to lack of partial application in Lisp
16:05:52 <ihope> You mean currying is wonky?
16:06:31 <int-e> (defun s (f g x) (funcall (funcall f x) (funcall g x))) works if all your functions are curried.
16:07:08 <int-e> obviously, this s is *not* curried.
16:07:57 <ihope> Is there a way to curry it?
16:10:58 <int-e> (defun curry3 (f) (lambda (x) (lambda (y) (lambda (z) (funcall f x y z)))))
16:11:03 <int-e> (curry3 #'s)
16:11:21 <int-e> I don't know about any builtin ways, but I have very little experience with Lisp
16:14:11 <int-e> * (funcall (funcall (funcall (curry3 #'s) (curry2 #'+)) #'1+) 5)
16:14:11 <int-e> 11
16:14:14 <int-e> it's no fun.
16:14:56 <int-e> compare to Haskell:
16:14:59 <int-e> Prelude> let s f g x = (f x) (g x) in s (+) (1+) 5
16:14:59 <int-e> 11
16:15:24 <ihope> Hmm.
16:15:33 * ihope tosses Lisp in the trash can
16:16:40 <jix> lisp isn't good for lambda calculus
16:16:41 <int-e> Lisp is cool, but it's not a functional programming language. Its greatest power is its Macro facility.
16:16:55 <jix> i'm using lisp for my new bfgentext
16:17:10 <jix> because c++ has no gc and ugly syntax and ruby is too slow
16:18:29 <int-e> C++ is a very useful high level assembler
16:18:33 * int-e giggles

16:30:15 <Keymaker> i really like this new opera
16:47:30 <Keymaker> grhh. must go

18:31:48 <Keymaker> ugh.. why every place is filled with sound, animation, video, pictures?!
18:32:17 <Keymaker> why every place allows user to have 300 mb of space for pictures, music, video?!
18:33:40 <Keymaker> why everything is so personal these days? people have blogs, make own podcasts, have hundred pictures of theirselves..
18:35:41 <int-e> I don't know.
18:47:32 <Keymaker> o-k
18:47:36 <Keymaker> :)
19:40:44 <Keymaker> nite

22:13:50 <calamari> hi
22:16:04 <GregorR> Hoi
22:19:40 <Robdgreat> HI!!!11ONE
22:22:08 <calamari> GregorR: do you know how to use autoscan?
22:22:19 <GregorR> Yup.
22:22:26 <calamari> what is configure.ac ?
22:22:46 <GregorR> It's the M4 script used to create the configure script.
22:22:55 <GregorR> autoscan should create configure.scan
22:23:27 <calamari> autom4te: configure.ac: no such file or directory
22:23:27 <calamari> autoscan: /usr/bin/autom4te failed with exit status: 1
22:23:47 <GregorR> What's that the output to?
22:23:50 <GregorR> OH
22:23:51 <GregorR> Heheheh
22:24:02 <GregorR> That's obnoxious output that autoscan produces for no reason :)
22:24:04 <GregorR> I hate thta.
22:24:06 <GregorR> *that
22:24:09 <GregorR> You can ignore it.
22:24:21 <calamari> ahh thank you
22:24:37 <calamari> it did create the scan file :) I was just worried I'd done something wrong
22:24:40 <GregorR> You have to modify configure.scan to your liking, then rename it configure.ac
22:24:58 <GregorR> It's because autoscan can also tell you how to update configure.ac
22:34:50 <calamari> how about automake? :)
22:35:05 <GregorR> Yes, I know how to use that too.
22:35:23 <GregorR> That being said, if you want to use them in combination, you should make the .am files before running autoscan.
22:35:45 <calamari> ahh, that makes sense
22:35:57 <calamari> I was wondering why I was having to put that stuff in manually
22:35:57 <GregorR> After all, autoscan does /scan/ :)
22:36:32 <calamari> either I'm terrible at searching or the docs for this stuff are nonexistant
22:36:42 <GregorR> The docs are quite excellent.
22:36:50 <GregorR> http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/
22:36:52 <GregorR> http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/
22:37:28 <calamari> thank you
23:07:19 <GregorR> A lot of exciting talk here :-P
23:17:27 <calamari> got bfigolf.c bfstrip.c done.. just figureing out the auto* stuff
23:17:36 <calamari> figureing -e
23:17:43 <GregorR> Heh
23:17:48 <calamari> afk...
