That is not a new spec. 05:12:02 ah. well gregorr, same to you. :P 05:13:20 off to bed, I'll read any response after some sleep 05:15:22 -!- kt3k has quit ("CHOCOA"). 05:47:59 bsmntbombdood: it doesn't? i thought c++ lets you skip the names of arguments if you don't use them. 05:48:27 (which is the reason declarations don't have them, they have no body) 05:48:29 oh 05:48:39 well yeah, right, main takes two arguments. 05:49:21 i was basically just assuming you were wrong and finding a reason why ;) 05:56:08 i don't get #5, how is that hard, is there a trick? 05:56:18 This is the solution, y = 3 evaluates to true 05:56:29 *answer 05:57:26 i mean, that's like the first thing each and every c++ tutorial teaches, "=" doesn't check for equality 05:59:14 err, if someone doesn't see the quotation marks in the bonus, they are either blind, or not programmers. 05:59:37 that is a trivial test :| 06:00:32 also i hate that guy already, "this test i made ooohh it's so hard just look at how cool it is" 06:01:13 oklokok: c++ lets you do that? 06:01:28 anyway it's the wrong type 06:01:32 should be char** 06:02:19 you should have seen the programming classes at my highschool 06:02:38 i went to the room to work on a computer one day while they were in class 06:02:40 it was terrible 06:04:34 bsmntbombdood: i'm pretty sure it does. haven't tested though. 06:04:45 well that's dumb 06:04:53 it is? 06:05:21 yes 06:05:27 i think it's mostly for inheritance things, you know, not needing some arg anymore or something 06:05:59 well main returning void is still an error 06:06:40 we have pretty decent c++ exercises, which i actually should start doing right now. 06:07:01 forgot i had to return them today, so fun c++ morning \o/ 06:08:29 bsmntbombdood: i can't say i know main's rules. but i'm pretty sure that's wrong too, although i'm also sure gcc compiles it. 06:08:53 foo.cpp:1: error: ‘::main’ must return ‘int’ 06:08:55 not 06:09:06 yeah okay, makes sense 06:09:11 just assumed he'd have tested. 06:10:20 a really hard test would not ask what the standard says, but what *different implementations* do. i mean, that's what you'll be using in practise, so good to know their quirks for situations where the standard is fuzzy ;) 06:11:11 dubious 06:11:24 also he explains at the bottom that he was not trying to be smug, but just showing what an ass he'd been as a first-time teacher 06:11:44 how's that dubious, mister 06:11:53 teaching to a specific implementation is bad 06:12:39 you'd have to teach the standard and the various implementations, which beginning programming teachers don't have the skill or time to do 06:12:52 err 06:13:01 if you teach them, how's it a hard test 06:13:05 you teach the standard 06:13:22 you mention you ask implementations. 06:13:50 well then you are a bad teacher for not giving your students the resources they need to pass your dumb test 06:14:34 well tbh i was not being all that serious. 06:14:55 i would probably just ask for something that makes sense if i was a teacher 06:15:10 c++ isn't a good language for nitpicking 06:15:14 i hate c++ 06:15:39 i used to love it, then i hated it, now i like it in theory, but probably wouldn't like to program in it. 06:18:34 hmm... 06:18:57 C on the other hand 06:18:59 what if the test was really easy but it was graded backwards? 06:18:59 is fun 06:19:22 or that you didn't get points at all! how about that? is that good hard? 06:19:38 C is okay, i probably wouldn't like programming in it either 06:19:48 -!- Organ_used_homos has joined. 06:19:49 what do you mean "probably"? 06:19:57 I mean probably 06:19:57 what do you like programming in? 06:20:00 -!- Organ_used_homos has changed nick to Slereah. 06:20:08 i'm a pythonist nowadays 06:20:09 And I like programming in Scheme/ 06:20:13 Or python, too 06:20:16 scheme is fun 06:20:22 They both have their advantages 06:20:24 but i just do python. the ide opens fast. 06:20:28 Unlike C. 06:20:36 scheme is fun 06:21:03 scheme is fun in theory, but i've decided i hate sexps. 06:21:19 You hate sex? 06:21:20 they delocalize the code writing process 06:21:26 S-expressions? 06:21:35 -!- Judofyr has quit. 06:21:50 because everything you do requires wrappering in parens, it's simply annoying to write 06:21:56 Slereah: no the other sexp 06:22:05 I don't know what the other is 06:22:24 okay then maybe you shouldn't be in a conversation about scheme you filthy noob? 06:22:31 (it's the first kind of sexp.) 06:23:05 oklokok 06:23:08 psygnisfive 06:23:09 HATE CRIME 06:23:11 hows it goin? 06:23:56 psygnisfive: well i got beat up by pizza delivery guys, been trying to solve this cypher a 7-yo did "for god to decypher", and playing the dotact2 game 06:24:15 you can choose the most interesting one for further questions 06:24:32 wat 06:24:48 was this pizza delivery guy trying to engage in klingon sex with you? 06:26:13 not sure 06:26:17 what's klingon sex like? 06:26:36 Rough. 06:27:15 one headbutted me to the ground, then two of them elbowed me a few times, but that was pretty irrelevant for damage 06:27:23 they did not rape me 06:27:36 Can I rape you? 06:27:54 depends on the exact meaning of "can" 06:28:00 well, not sure it does 06:28:07 but it could, so maybe you should be more specific 06:33:43 darn 06:34:56 rand 06:37:18 A = A >:| 06:38:11 i'm bored 06:40:15 -!- konr has joined. 06:41:07 -!- konr has left (?). 06:45:06 ugh 06:45:13 i hate how people confused common lisp with lisp 06:46:26 who confused? 06:47:02 another channel 06:47:37 you're on quite many channels i've never heard about 06:47:46 that's a lie, i've whoissed you manyfold 06:48:34 not that i'm sure what that means 06:49:55 MODE +i PLEASE 06:50:38 why i 06:51:40 commonlisp is a horrible evil dialect of lisp 06:51:44 scheme for ever! 06:52:35 psygnisfive: yes 06:52:49 seriously. clisp is so ugly D: 06:53:15 #' disagrees with you! 06:53:29 what? 06:53:32 #' is wrong? 06:53:51 ? 06:53:58 have you ever programmed cl? 06:54:05 yes 06:54:10 its so painful :( 06:54:21 #'x is a reader macro for (function x) 06:54:24 part of why cl is ugly 06:54:33 a what? 06:54:37 what the hell does that mean?? 06:54:59 isn't it basically just something that lets you use the function as a value? 06:55:11 or do i misrememberize this all now is that it 06:55:15 why would you need something to allow that? 06:55:17 this is lisp 06:55:21 thats like.. built it 06:55:23 (i have never programmed common lisp) 06:55:27 oklokok: yes, that's the problem. functions should be values by default 06:55:33 bsmntbombdood: yarr 06:55:47 when i first read about that, i was like "wtf, and lisp is supposed to be beautiful?!?" 06:55:55 but then i learned about scheme 06:56:04 scheme is beautiful :D 06:56:10 scheme i've actually programmed in! 06:56:24 ive got quite a large program in scheme right now :o 06:56:58 is it your parser that parses all that is cool? 06:57:05 generator, not parser 06:57:08 but yes 06:59:09 yes i mean your enflammolator 06:59:16 :P 07:01:02 310 lines of code so far. its the longest lisp program ive ever written :O 07:02:07 did you used to have another nick? 07:02:14 me? 07:02:19 occasionally augur 07:02:44 psygnisfive: i think i've written a longer one. 07:02:55 my only real program in scheme 07:03:05 im actually porting this from javascript where i have the prototype version 07:03:20 hey that's insulting to scheme. 07:03:28 but the JS version uses lots of imperative behavior thats hard to do in scheme 07:03:30 whys it insulting? :P 07:04:05 if you wrote it in js first so you could then compile manually to scheme, it's insulting :P 07:04:37 no, i wrote it in JS first because i had a deadline and needed to have a quick and dirty UI 07:04:42 ah 07:04:49 and i had no real idea precisely how i was going to tackle the problem 07:05:15 well, i do admit functional programming often requires you to have a better idea of what you are doing. 07:05:17 it took like like three days to code the JS to get it right 07:05:21 now that i know what the requirements are, translating it into lisp is quite fast 07:05:40 actually it took more than three days, sorry 07:05:42 more like 6 07:05:42 but 07:05:46 lol 07:06:04 i wish i could code something for 6 days :P 07:06:14 well, you need to be passionate :) 07:06:30 i am passionate, but i get some kinda block after a few days. 07:06:31 i mean, im coding the demostration of my thesis project 07:06:32 so 07:06:40 this isnt a 6 day thing here 07:06:50 this whole project is a whole school year 07:06:56 so like 8 months 07:07:05 well if i had a deadline, i'd probably work 24/7. 07:07:09 and a lot of it is pure new research 07:07:21 i have deadlines for a few coding projects, but they are pure crap. 07:07:26 deadlines <3 07:08:40 unless you count what i did as a kid, and some games i've slowly enhanced for ages, oklotalk is probably my longest project. 07:08:59 and it took like 3 days (i could prolly do it in one day now) 07:09:19 as a kid i could work on a project for like a month 07:09:23 i haven't programmed for like 6 months 07:09:43 nowadays i can get the same results in a few hours, the problem is that's pretty much as far as my patience allows me to go 07:09:56 bsmntbombdood: then what have you been doing? 07:10:01 nothing :( 07:10:18 that's what happens when you stop schoolz 07:10:28 i hope you're proud of yourself 07:10:30 oklofok: are you doing any research tho? 07:10:32 no it started before i dropped out 07:11:36 psygnisfive: about oklotalk? well i guess you could say i did before implementing it, making sure i knew what i was doing, but that was just a highschool project 07:11:40 i mean in general. 07:12:11 i started at the uni like two and a half months ago, i'm learning the basics atm. 07:12:37 == no. 07:13:19 bsmntbombdood: i was in the same situation, then i started university, and now i'm filled with energy, doing all kinds of small projects all the time. 07:13:31 university is awesome 07:13:44 -!- oklokok has changed nick to oklopol. 07:13:49 ha yeah right 07:13:54 :) 07:13:55 that's what the told me about high school 07:14:00 well, doing research will give you a nice long project or two to work on 07:14:01 yeah, me too 07:14:05 and that was bullshit 07:14:31 high school was a waste of time, i could just as well have sat in a dark room for three years 07:15:11 psygnisfive: yes, i believe that. a thesis would be the kind of deadline that would get me working. 07:15:42 also now i'm stuck at irc because i have to stand up and go get me something to drink, and i don't feel like moving. 07:15:52 please be quiet for a while so i can't do it. 07:16:17 or "can", depending what "it" referred to, there 07:16:28 hmm i need something to drink 07:16:35 oklopol, whats your major?? 07:16:48 i have no idea really, my english, and my overall speakingious capacities seem to be getting worser all the times 07:16:50 psygnisfive: cs 07:16:56 computer sex 07:17:00 *science 07:17:02 what do you want to research in cs? 07:17:15 psygnisfive: so many things i'm glad i don't have to choose right now. 07:17:30 well list a few of them :p 07:17:40 but probably combining logic programming and OO with ai. 07:17:52 hmm 07:17:54 AI is fun 07:17:59 i havent touched any of it, really, but i want to 07:18:39 im already working on a computational generative syntax, and presumably i'm also going to work on a parser for it as well, i guess 07:19:06 and having a language-to-semantics system would be useful for doing AI i think 07:20:19 language is fun too, even natural language, also digital logic, games, anything involving algorithms really... 07:21:30 well, if you really od find NLP/CompLing stuff interesting, I can tell you as much as I can dredge up about the topic 07:21:38 well i'm mostly thinking combining the imperative kinda OO with an AI so you can do prolog-style search (but preferably more structured and intelligentt) for parts you don't have any kinda explicit optimization or good ideas for. 07:21:43 *intelligent 07:23:14 psygnisfive: you could teach me phonetics at some point...... .... ........ .. .... 07:23:44 i could. to be honest, phonetics really needs physical presence so you can hear the sounds. 07:23:48 that's just for fun / general wanting not to suck of course, i'm not really especially interested in phonetics 07:24:04 phonetics isnt interesting 07:24:12 indeed it isn't. 07:24:12 sucking at phonetics is like sucking at spelling 07:24:18 yes 07:24:29 which is to say, it doesn't matter unless you care about spelling. 07:24:30 :P 07:24:37 right 07:24:41 i mean, if you want to do speech recognition/synthesis its important 07:24:47 but otherwise its irrelevant 07:24:53 well i prefer to take that as "you gotta know it, but it's not really that cool if you do" 07:25:19 actually you dont have to know it in order to do theoretical linguistics 07:25:36 psygnisfive: no, but you have to know it in order¨¨¨¨. 07:25:39 ... 07:25:41 lol 07:25:46 i'm just gonna leave it like that. 07:25:59 lolwut 07:26:00 anyway 07:26:13 ill teach you some syntax in the future if you want 07:27:54 you don't need to know phonetics for doing theoretical linguistics, but you do need it so you can learn a new language without having to wonder if you're even getting the basic structure of the sounds right. 07:28:07 and sure, i'd love to know more about syntax. 07:28:39 good. ill teach you some in the future. how about tomorrow or wednesday? 07:28:46 by tomorrow i mean 24 hours from now 07:29:03 not that i want to learn that many languages, i just feel retarded for not having the abilitiez. 07:29:20 * psygnisfive shrugs 07:29:26 syntax is cooler 07:29:31 than any individual language 07:29:31 oh dear, trying to allocate some actual time ;) 07:29:32 :P 07:29:43 gets much scarier than just talking about somewhere in the future 07:30:03 just be online this time tomorrow 07:30:50 psygnisfive: yes, but these are entirely different kinds of wanting to learn. there are things i want to know because they're practically useful (like learning to punch pizza delivery niggas), and there are things i want to know because they are conceptually pure and sexy 07:31:22 as a finn, i deplore you, never use "niggas". it just sounds wrong coming from your fingers. 07:31:43 how's that? 07:31:49 you're.. finnish 07:32:07 no non-american should use that term 07:32:31 it's like a non-french saying merde 07:32:35 they aren't actually negros, i don't know the term for that race, except the finnish ...derogatory term. 07:32:46 i've heard many finns say merde 07:32:51 yes, but even so 07:32:54 never say "niggas" 07:32:56 it just sounds weird 07:33:01 :) 07:33:17 i can try not to confuse you with it 07:33:27 you can't use it correctly 07:33:47 what's wrong about "pizza delivery niggas" 07:33:58 nothing i say 07:34:02 right i be. 07:34:08 there's so much baggage around it that appropriate comic use relies heavily on stuff that you, as a finn, cannot replicate 07:34:22 ...comic use? 07:34:27 you aint right, son, don't even think you are 07:34:34 oh, that's what you meant 07:34:54 i'm not a native speaker, so i can't learn to use it so that it's okay to say it? 07:35:04 and use of "niggas" non-comically is incredibly inappropriate 07:35:36 you're a finn. you're going to have a serious accent and distinctly finnish styles to your speech :P 07:35:37 psygnisfive: if you think i give a shit about that, you may confuse me with someone who cares about stuff like that. 07:35:47 hahaha 07:35:54 well i wouldn't use that irl. 07:36:14 and i wouldn't use it if i knew someone here would get mad, if they were active. 07:36:29 you shouldn't use it online either. the english speakers who use "niggas" as a general substitute for "guys" or similar are almost universally very low class 07:36:33 possibly even white trash 07:36:35 but if a word is inappropriate, and i don't see a reason why it should be, i use it just out of spite. 07:36:47 psygnisfive: yes, i know that 07:36:54 and you're not white trash 07:37:03 hence its unbefitting you 07:37:12 how do you know i'm not white trash? 07:37:15 ! 07:37:23 you're finnish. 07:37:30 * oklopol is *manyfold* in things he is 07:37:33 finns can't be white trash 07:37:39 :< 07:37:43 only americans and canadians can be white trash 07:38:04 well then maybe i'm white trash born in a clean whiter's body :'< 07:38:24 brits can be chavs 07:38:28 and finns are just finns. 07:39:11 don't worry, i don't even know what white trash means 07:39:27 low-class whites 07:39:33 well right 07:39:38 but not just low-class 07:39:40 then i guess i knew it, but my point 07:39:43 like 07:39:53 was something 07:39:55 that i forgot. 07:40:08 -!- olsner has joined. 07:40:12 stupid, socially reprehensible, often assholish uncouth and disgusting white people 07:40:31 well i guess that doesn't describe me 07:40:56 the kind of person who wears white wife beaters, is thin but insists on growing a scraggly patchy beard or, even worse, mustache in order to prove his manliness 07:41:20 i would probably like to get a beard. 07:41:40 yes but you could probably grow a proper bear and it'd look appropriate on you 07:41:54 except prolly not for manliness, more for looking bohemian-ish 07:41:58 whereas lithe guys with patchy shitty beards look stupid 07:42:41 i don't really give a shit about gender, so i don't really aspire for manliness 07:43:37 that's why i have trouble seeing why people do sex changes, if i woke up one day with a woman-hole, i don't think my life would change at all (except, well, i might get famous) 07:44:14 people get sex change ops because they feel uncomfortable in their body, not because they have something against it. 07:44:45 well, i wouldn't feel uncomfortable in a different body, unless i was simply objectively less abled. 07:44:45 but that's a very cognitive/psychological/neurological thing thats more complicated than just that. 07:44:52 -!- GregorR has quit (Read error: 113 (No route to host)). 07:44:53 neither would i 07:44:57 -!- GregorR has joined. 07:44:58 yeah, that's what they all say 07:45:03 speaking of you not caring about gender 07:45:07 i don't buy that, because i don't feel it's my case. 07:45:21 so we're getting married 0.4 of a marriage ey? 07:45:22 where did this conversation come from 07:45:31 bsmntbombdood: does it matter? 07:45:33 bsmntbombdood: out of me 07:45:40 but indeed, it doesn't matter 07:45:53 its only purpose is to distract me from doing my c++'s 07:46:08 what do you have to do in c++? 07:46:12 psygnisfive: hmm. i didn't agree to 0.4. 07:46:20 what number was it again? 07:46:25 0.2? 0.3? 07:46:28 something ike that right? 07:46:56 bsmntbombdood: simply stuff. five exercises, i'm in the third one, it's a simple dispatching thingie about what the "call most specific function" thingie means in c++. 07:47:27 it's also a pretty stupid exercise, the rest are much better 07:47:57 psygnisfive: yes it's not infitesimally small. i'm not sure what i was thinking :o 07:48:10 awesome 07:48:15 * psygnisfive kisses oklopol 07:48:17 so 07:48:19 okay now i really need to go 07:48:19 tomorrow this time 07:48:21 syntax 07:48:24 im off to 07:48:27 too* 07:48:31 ugh, you need like 0.3 to kiss me, mister no-no-pants. 07:48:31 night oklopol 07:48:31 <3 07:48:35 night. 07:48:42 oh pleas, ive got 0.3 07:48:45 ive got 1.0! 07:48:49 dont deny it 07:49:08 i'm not denying or nying anything 07:49:16 ;) 07:49:18 night 07:49:22 night. 07:49:28 or, well, early morning. 07:49:31 :p 07:49:49 --> 07:52:13 -!- psygnisfive has quit ("Leaving..."). 07:52:50 * GregorR made a new generation of color matcher. 07:53:39 so basically you wanted to see them having some more of that sexual sex, and made them produce one whole generation of offspring in one night? 07:53:50 you're a sick, sick man 07:53:55 * oklopol is gone 07:53:56 Different meanings of the term "generation" 07:54:01 I /generated/ a neural network. 07:54:07 yes, my joke kinda relied on that 07:54:09 In fact, that involves 10000 generations of evolution. 07:54:24 hmm 07:54:26 Which is to say, some millions of sexual encounters. 07:54:31 i see, i see... 07:54:32 Between complete strangers. 07:54:36 Which happen to be neural networks. 07:54:47 so what you're saying is you're much, much sicker than i never even imagined? 07:54:52 YES! 07:55:13 oh dear... i should've just gone when i had the chance. 07:57:00 (*ever) 07:59:59 -!- clog has quit (ended). 08:00:00 -!- clog has joined. 08:01:51 You should maybe be producing some neural network porn tapes; I'm sure there's a market for that sort of stuff. 08:02:11 i'm dumb :( 08:42:27 -!- oerjan has joined. 08:46:54 I'm writing Variations on the Annoying Nokia Theme 08:47:16 as a fugue?

:D 11:29:30 how would that look like? 11:37:21 I don't know. Naked coefficients? Smooth curves in the activation functions? 11:37:30 Just a thought, really. 11:39:13 fizzie: context? 11:40:36 ais523: GregorR has been making his neural networks have sex again. I just suggested something to profit from it. 11:40:41 fizzie: Did you check the xkcd thread about the "I call rule 34 of Wolfram's rule 34"-thing? 11:41:10 ineiros: No, I just wondered about it. 11:41:16 ineiros: Are the images work-safe? :) 11:41:26 At least some of them. An example: http://forums.xkcd.com/download/file.php?id=8730 11:41:48 Heh. 11:55:33 Wolfram's rule 34 is unfortunately boring 11:55:55 yes 11:56:38 34 = 0b00100010, which would imply that 101 and 010 produce 1 as output, other patterns produce 0 11:56:50 so you're just going to get a load of vertical black stripes separated by at least 2 white stripes 11:56:53 and no interesting result 11:57:09 essentially 01 travels one step left per step, everything else is zeroed 11:57:29 no, it's centered isn't it? 11:57:32 or have I misread the number? 11:58:05 001 not 010 11:58:20 ah, yes 11:58:32 agreed, you'll get diagonal stripes from black with white to its left 11:58:58 That just means it's a bit more of a challenge to apply the other rule 34 on it, nothing more. 11:59:06 heh 11:59:32 at least one version of the rules of the Internet I've seen have rule 35 as stating that deliberate attempts to invoke rule 24 fail 11:59:35 *34 12:00:03 that's just stolen from Godwin's law i bet :D 12:00:28 probably 12:00:39 although I've deliberately invoked Godwin's law before, and it worked 12:02:53 * oerjan checks rule 35 in MCell 12:04:39 slightly more interesting. seems to settle into a period 2 12:05:11 but uses a fair number of generations to do so 12:06:37 seems like there is a possible glider, but it tends to die out 12:06:42 http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ElementaryCellularAutomaton.html doesn't have an utterly interesting picture of rule 35, but it sure beats 34. 12:08:06 it only shows evolutions starting with a single black pixel though 12:09:36 bah 12:09:53 i was doing 37 instead. darn hex input 12:10:07 -!- puzzlet_ has quit (Remote closed the connection). 12:10:14 -!- puzzlet has joined. 12:11:08 oh that's actually twice as interesting 12:11:26 single pixels travelling left, longer blocks travelling right 12:12:03 or wait, it's an optical illusion of sorts 12:12:25 actually everything travels 1 right in 2 12:12:57 oerjan: not quite, surely? 12:13:04 alternating black and white wouldn't do that 12:13:32 35? 12:14:16 well there seem to be some initial exceptions that die out there too 12:15:49 yes, there is also a stationary (0 in 2) checkerboard pattern 12:15:56 -!- Organ_used_homos has joined. 12:16:00 -!- Organ_used_homos has changed nick to Slereah. 12:32:03 -!- oerjan has quit ("leaving"). 14:38:21 http://www.getacoder.com/projects/bug_finder_92913.html 14:39:05 I'd totally pay one of the $300 ones to see what happens 14:39:17 surely it isn't worth that much? 14:39:18 LOL the last bidder is "BusyBeaver" 14:39:21 how i ronic 14:39:33 ais523: oh it would be 14:39:42 "You may not start working in this and any project before your bid is accepted. Any user who violates this policy may have their account permanently suspended." 14:39:51 what a strange restriction! 14:40:21 most of them seem to be people replying to every project with boilerplate without reading it 14:40:35 the sad thing is, a /practical/ infinite loop detector is quite possible 14:40:39 it won't work on every program, obviously 14:40:45 but will catch many stupid logic errors 14:40:48 might be interesting 14:40:50 ais523: Congrats you got the joke! 14:40:50 Also 14:40:51 Been done 14:40:57 I thought it would have done 14:41:07 by microsoft 14:41:21 http://research.microsoft.com/Terminator/ 14:41:52 (getacoder.com is codeword for indian-spammers-that-cannot-code-dot-com) 14:43:57 Can I post contact information? 14:43:59 Allowing the direct contact between buyers and sellers other than through the message boards could allow members to bypass the GetACoder system and in turn avoid the commission fees. Our charges are a fair price to bring software buyers and coders together. We do not allow the exchange of contact information. 14:44:18 that website, as far as I can tell, is a way for people to make nonbinding agreements with each other whilst paying the website lots of money 14:44:26 all getacoder-alikes are shams 14:44:32 you are stating the blindly obvious 14:44:41 not blindly obvious to everyone there 14:44:47 no, it is 14:44:50 because they're all scammers 14:44:54 ah, ok 14:44:55 on both sides? 14:44:58 and the person who posted that question is joking 14:45:02 see: the last line 14:45:04 that might be fun to watch, actually 14:45:06 which states the halting problem -exactly- 14:45:12 also, the only other posters there are idiots 14:45:21 e.g. someone wanted an OS better than windows that was also compatible with windows 14:45:22 in a week 14:45:24 for a few thousand 14:47:01 "Herr T, Despite the fact that I died in 1918 you may find the following advice important. I would be happy to work on your project but you will quickly find that it is impossible, nay undecidable." 14:47:19 haha, was that posted? 14:47:23 yes 14:47:33 by someone with the nick "GeorgeCantor" 14:47:42 brilliant 14:47:47 although he was trolled. 14:47:48 There's also KurtG. 14:47:51 by the submitter. 14:48:05 the submitter is AlanT 14:48:08 another obvious clue 14:48:11 exactly 14:48:16 To state that another way, given a function f and input x, determine if f(x) will halt. 14:48:20 that pretty much gives it away 14:48:23 even without AlanT 14:48:30 what do the non-troll posts there look like, I wonder? 14:48:31 because 14:48:37 ais523: i told you 14:48:41 that fits my definition of trolling pretty well, but it's clever and funny trolling 14:48:53 an art which I feared was lost to the Internet 14:49:02 "I want OS called Blue Orb os. it must be compatible with windows Xp and Linux and also loko like OSX. Pls be responding quickly" 14:49:27 I would find it so funny if someone told them to just get OS X + Parallels, and rename it 14:49:42 :D 14:49:47 or: 14:49:53 OS X, and specify a method for porting applications 14:50:10 or: Linux, with WINE, and an OS X copy skin 14:50:16 for $3,000 14:50:34 arguably Linux + WINE isn't fully compatible with Windows XP 14:50:38 sssssh 14:50:39 nor windows Xp for that matter 14:50:45 the caps probably make a difference 14:51:05 ais523: typical getacoder: 14:51:12 i need to build up very good reverse auction website. 14:51:12 the reverse auction script has to be with no bugs and it have to be customized for all my necessities. 14:51:12 Well, it didn't say *fully* compatible. 14:51:15 http://www.getacoder.com/projects/reverse_auction_website_93182.html 14:51:25 http://www.getacoder.com/projects/api_voip_93170.html 14:51:29 to use the API provided by the following URL to create a voip service (click to call) SIP 14:51:29 and sms services 14:51:38 http://www.getacoder.com/projects/customize_existing_vb_gpl_89636.html 14:51:40 Description 14:51:41 We need to modify an existing GPL item to meet our specifications of an simple interface.

I am looking for PROFESSIONALS ONLY, no amateurs! Also there will not be explanation in detail, I will give you my ideas, I will help in any way possible, but you will be responsible for looking up the smaller details – it is NOT hard, just go look at the site and do it, this does not require a detailed explanation if you already have everything given. 14:56:05 under Features: "web 2.0" 14:56:08 "Hack proof" 14:56:33 http://kottke.org/04/07/my-new-policy 14:56:37 we have a policy that we are hack proof 14:57:34 actually, legal means are better than technical means to prevent certain forms of hacking 14:57:44 ot 14:57:45 it's not 14:57:53 "we have a policy that you must not hack us" 14:57:57 like copying closed-source programs, DRM nearly always gets cracked more or less straight away, but copyright still applies 14:58:00 it is, "we have a policy that we are not being hacked" 14:58:10 ISTTIOPTII 14:58:12 haha, sounds like a Nomic legal fition 14:58:16 *fiction 14:58:18 I Say That Is Our Policy Therefore It Is 14:58:21 "I say we aren't, therefore we aren't" 14:58:43 "You have this security hole."

15:09:56 online; it's flash 15:10:08 well, there were other options but those two seemed the most likely to me 15:10:15 [2008-11-23 15:12:06] < fizzie> Since ehird probably wants them codes, 086-754 gives the 1 15:10:18 01-108 list, while 809-936 gives the 1-100 list. 15:10:22 Write those down already. 15:10:29 thankees 15:10:32 and maybe 15:10:32 :D 15:10:42 and I'm probably immune to that particular problem due to not having Flash nor wanting it 15:10:50 I think it was something like the fourth time you asked. :p 15:10:59 Away for some grocery-shopping and such now, anyway. 15:11:08 ais523: it's a time-trially sort of game anyway 15:11:34 it's not that simulate-a-runner-by-moving-the-individual-joints game, is it? 15:11:41 nah. 15:11:55 there's a bunch of dots and you have to collect them all before the time runs out by jumping around. 15:12:07 and there's electric fences. and water. and dots that make you immune to fences. and mazes. and ... 15:12:48 i think i'll have another stab at nethack after this. 15:13:22 "still creating bottle 99 several days later" 15:13:30 do we have a new record for slowest esolang interp? 15:17:39 at least one version of the rules of the Internet I've seen have rule 35 as stating that deliberate attempts to invoke rule 24 fail 15:17:43 i saw an in-depth essay on that 15:17:45 basically 15:17:57 porn of it exists, but sometimes it hasn't manifested into bits on a harddrive yet 15:18:02 that is, it exists, but you can't see it yet 15:18:17 heh 15:18:20 any rule 34 "challenge" fundamentally misunderstands it: it does exist, it's just a matter of it coming into this plane of existing 15:18:23 it was great 15:18:41 no, I agree with that theory, more or less 15:19:16 we need to create a board of scholars for rule 34 15:19:30 our job is to philosophize about it daily. 15:19:43 before anyone says anything: ssh, stop ruining the joke 15:19:54 ehird: you'll get loads of takers if you provide sufficiently many example cases 15:19:57 possibly 15:20:10 ais523: you did not read my last line. 15:20:11 >:| 15:20:47 I did, just chose to ignore it 15:20:49 http://beardeddevelopers.com/ 15:21:10 it has its own website now? 15:21:23 oh, something else 15:21:39 do you know about the theory that languages become more or less popular according to how much of a beard their creator has? 15:21:44 yes 15:21:45 programming languages, that is 15:21:57 do you have a beard? feather will take the world by storm 15:22:04 although moreso if your beard is turing complete 15:22:25 ehird: you not only know I have a beard, but have photographic evidence of the fact 15:22:38 really? 15:22:41 oh, on the wolfram site? 15:22:58 anyway, a picture is not helpful in determining turing-completeness. run a program on your beard./ 15:46:32 I'm going to write a functional-style VM and write a prototype-based smalltalk-alike on top of it 15:46:33 yay 15:50:35 hmm 15:50:37 rate this idea: 15:50:43 the whole VM is based on completely immutable things 15:50:54 it is impossible to change things, only add things, and garbage collection sorts the rest 15:51:12 ehird: Feather 15:51:28 not really 15:51:32 it's the base vm i'm talking about 15:51:34 the lowest level 16:31:35 -!- kar8nga has joined. 17:01:36 -!- Mony has joined. 17:02:18 plop 17:02:23 pol 17:18:42 okloplop 17:19:15 okloyourMOM 17:23:03 -!- kar8nga has quit (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)). 17:23:16 mmmee?
