00:00:05 * calamari wonders if graue is still here
00:00:59 <calamari> hmm, that checkbox captcha could also be strengthened by assigning the input a random name
00:01:40 <pgimeno> my advantage is that spammers probably don't speak spanish, hehe
00:01:46 <calamari> then they couldn't hardcode for it
00:02:31 <pgimeno> isn't there a captcha plugin for Wikimedia?
00:02:52 <calamari> yes but that is bad to use because it is standard
00:03:25 <calamari> it is preferrable to be nonstandard so that they dont bother to fix it for oner wiki
00:04:36 <pgimeno> captcha images were beaten by means of free pr0n webs AFAIK
00:06:31 <calamari> I wonder if sites like driverguide are doing the same
00:12:22 <ihope> Wait... just how were they broken?
00:17:15 <calamari> ,,,,,,,,/ dzzzz fffffffffffffffffffff nb.bbbbbbbbbbn h t; n kyy
00:26:12 <pgimeno> ihope: "Enter the code in this image to access this free-porn site"; the image comes from the site to crack and the user input is redirected to the captcha field
00:26:36 <pgimeno> there are enough users as to spam as hell
00:27:32 <graue> calamari: your OISC interpreter is 10 bytes longer than the longest program I ever wrote directly in machine code
00:27:56 <graue> have you posted it somewhere?
00:28:14 <calamari> no, not yet. I need to test it first.
00:41:13 -!- tgwizard has joined.
00:42:22 <calamari> graue: what do you think of the checkbox idea? it can be very basic, then get more advanced if they ever bother to adapt
00:43:36 <ihope> "Check half these boxes: [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ]"
00:43:59 <calamari> ihope: lol, that's too much work
00:44:31 <calamari> ihope: easier is to implement the changing name code, then have them type a password, etc
00:44:34 <ihope> "Check half these boxes: [ ] [ ]"
00:45:11 <calamari> ihope: wouldn't that be backwards compatible with the original? :)
00:45:39 <lament> "Check half these boxes: [ ] [ ] [ ]"
00:45:52 <pgimeno> "How many boobs does an amazon woman have? [______]"

00:46:28 <ihope> "What should we do with the drunken sailor? [____________]"
00:46:51 <ihope> lament: I could just check every other one.
00:47:11 <pgimeno> "How many bottles of beer are there in the wall? [___]"
00:47:14 <calamari> lament: pretty sure that would be effective to stop real posts :)

00:48:13 <ihope> "Enter the full text of the Bible: [_]"

00:55:41 <lament> "Enter the last digit of the first prime number: [_]"
00:56:03 <pgimeno> that reminds me of a recent news article in the spanish press
00:56:57 <pgimeno> it said something like "X and Y have found that the number Pi has MORE THAN 300,000,000 DIGITS"
00:57:13 <pgimeno> so, "Enter the last digit of pi: [_]" would do
00:57:18 -!- tgwizard has quit ("Leaving").
00:58:54 <pgimeno> someone should have said the reporter that the decimal expression of 1/3 has... more than 400,000,000!
00:59:09 <pgimeno> (even if ! is taken as a factorial sign)
01:01:30 <lament> dr. evil pinky-in-mouth gesture
01:01:48 <lament> three hundred MILLION digits!!!!!
01:02:30 <ihope> http://3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105820974944592.com/
01:04:03 <pgimeno> (just checked, sorry, it was actually 51 billion digits... not sure if the decimal expression of 1/3 beats that, I would have to check)
01:11:44 <pgimeno> <lament> "Prove the Jordan curve theorem: [_________________]"
01:11:56 <pgimeno> nah, systems like Coq or Mizar could do that automatically
01:15:10 <pgimeno> how about "Enter a BF program that outputs the number <random number>: [_________]" and interpret user input?
01:16:36 <ihope> What if the user input "+[>+]"?
01:17:47 <pgimeno> impose a cycle limit, e.g. for number N never let it run for more than k*log(N) for suitable k
01:18:41 <lament> or something equally bizarre
01:18:42 <ihope> lament: that's the number of digits, more or less
01:19:25 <ihope> Then giving that the number 9837491257 would probably still cause problems.
01:19:32 <lament> pgimeno: mizar never "proved" anything automatically
01:19:57 <lament> pgimeno: it just verified that proof made by people.
01:20:32 <pgimeno> I know, I was just kidding
01:22:30 <ihope> "Enter a regex that matches a number of the letter 'a' a number of times that is coprime to 938475: [_________________]"
01:23:35 <pgimeno> lament: anyway it's already proved there: http://www.mizar.org/ (announced in the index page itself)
01:24:49 <ihope> lament: it would have to match any such string
01:28:10 <pgimeno> /a/ matches "aa", "aaa", "aaaaaaa", etc. as required
01:29:04 <pgimeno> oops, "aaa" should not be there
01:29:58 <pgimeno> maybe you want that any other string is NOT matched?
01:31:17 <pgimeno> ah, that's harder to accomplish then
01:31:19 <ihope> And I want it to consume the entire string, as well.
01:31:46 <ihope> Anyway, it still should be possible.
01:32:18 <ihope> If the number were 6, it would be /(a|aaaaa)(aaaaaa)*/.
01:33:38 <pgimeno> provided you add ^ and $, I guess
01:33:59 <ihope> Well, if we assume the regex must match the whole string, then...
01:34:35 <ihope> Harder: "Enter a regex that matches a number of the letter 'a' a prime number of times, assuming that 938475 is prime but no lower number is: [_________________]"
01:34:55 <pgimeno> I was just being picky because PHP is picky with me :)
01:36:07 <pgimeno> gtg now, it's 2:35 am here... good night
01:39:57 <calamari> found ab ug but realized a way to get it down to 40
01:42:10 <lament> Enter a prime number: [___]
01:42:18 <graue> but now its size is no longer equal to life, the universe, and everything :(
01:42:43 <graue> add some features to bring it back up 2 bytes, calamari
01:43:00 <graue> like maybe add a debugger -- you can do that in 2 bytes, right?
01:44:40 <calamari> guess I have plenty of room for that debugger now ;P
01:46:22 <calamari> I could strip 2 more bytes, but then the source files couldn't be ascii
01:51:27 <lament> We should hold a contest for the coolest program of length 42
01:52:43 <lament> calamari would probably win, though
01:53:11 <calamari> nah, 4 nops would detract from coolness
01:53:55 <ihope> "[-]+[]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
01:55:02 <lament> ihope: but that's not very cool.
01:56:19 <lament> "QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ"
01:56:32 <lament> prints a pretty-looking square in HQ9+
01:57:07 <lament> (actually, it probably doesn't.)
01:57:29 <lament> change that last Q to a newline.
02:32:32 <calamari> reading the program is just under half the code now :)
02:38:37 <calamari> yay, the equivalent of "[-]" seems to be working
02:39:04 <calamari> well, it's a major pain to write better programs.. working on it :)
02:42:56 <graue> what good is an OISC interpreter?
02:44:51 <graue> well, it doesn't do input or output
02:45:20 <calamari> (well, still writing the program to verify that :)
02:45:22 <graue> how? memory-mapped?
02:45:33 <calamari> no, it uses ms-dos function calls
02:45:46 <graue> what? how do you do MS-DOS function calls in OISC?
02:46:07 <calamari> it isn't oisc, its based on oisc
02:46:27 <graue> well, it's not a very portable language if you need MS-DOS function calls to use it
02:46:30 <calamari> basically, it was my inspiration, then I optimized for size
02:46:43 <calamari> graue: this isn't about portability, it's about raw size
02:47:15 <graue> I know the implementation isn't portable, but it would be nice if the implemented language was
02:47:29 <calamari> well, the turing complete part of the language is portable
02:47:45 <calamari> and the i/o part can also be coded
02:48:21 <calamari> esp since Linux ELF executables can't be less than 45 bytes
02:51:02 <calamari> the language works like this: aaaa vv jjjj
02:51:34 <calamari> first it adds your offset aaaa to the memory pointer (adding a neg is like subtracting)
02:51:48 <calamari> then, it checks vv.. if 0, then it performs a system call
02:52:03 -!- ihope has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)).
02:52:09 <calamari> otherwise, it adds vv to the byte at the memory pointer (again with the negs)
02:52:50 <calamari> if the byte at the memory pointer is 0, then it adds jjjj to the ip, otherwise it continues to the next instruction
03:29:18 * SimonRC lols at the above captchas
03:33:21 <SimonRC> calamari: you could get a lot more speed by doing a less-than, rather than an equality test
03:33:42 <SimonRC> 'cause a<=b and b<=a means a=b

21:45:05 <GregorR> It's an integral in the army ... with no sign bit.
21:47:36 <int-e> SimonRC: a play on my initials and intel opcodes. the nick is old.
21:49:28 <SimonRC> int-e: do you know any ASM lang other than intel?
21:50:35 <int-e> not really. I've seen MIPS (and coded a bit on the strange simulated machine that SPIM provides), and I've done a bit of Z80 assembly ages ago.
21:51:27 <ihope> MIPS and SPIM, eh?
21:52:02 <SimonRC> I was hoping you would be really experienced and be able to tell me that one was clearly the best asm lang ever.
21:52:56 <ihope> Well, so what's the opcode?
21:53:47 <SimonRC> used to ask the OS to do something, usually
21:54:15 <SimonRC> What is wrong with a plain function call I do not know.
21:54:21 <int-e> not so much anymore with the advent of the sysenter instruction (at least on newer x86)
21:54:35 <int-e> and never on mips, they have a trap instruction I think
21:54:51 * SimonRC does know x86 well enought to understand that
21:54:55 <ihope> So when do we get functional machine code?
21:55:00 * SimonRC does *not* know x86 well enought to understand that
21:55:01 <int-e> SimonRC: simple. a plain function call can not escape the memory protection (provided by the mmu)
21:55:25 <SimonRC> ihope: I believe there is one already
21:55:38 <int-e> in earlier days, code size also played a role - an int instruction is 2 bytes, a far call is 5 ...
