00:01:45 <bsmntbombdood> ok
00:01:52 <bsmntbombdood> now how the hell do i solve these equations
00:02:22 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: what equations
00:02:25 <bsmntbombdood> i have a list of tuples of the form (a, b, D[a] ^ D[b])
00:02:28 <bsmntbombdood> i need D
00:02:31 <ehird> i have magical mathematica so i could give it a go if you want :P
00:02:40 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: erm d is of length 2 right?
00:02:47 <bsmntbombdood> no
00:02:59 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: that's, uh, not possible, anyway. as you just have the values, not any key stuff
00:03:02 <ehird> D[a] isn't related to a
00:03:22 <bsmntbombdood> a list of tuples of the form (a, b, D[a] ^ D[b]), and D[0]
00:03:36 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: i'm not convinced that's possible.
00:03:40 <bsmntbombdood> it is
00:03:40 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: wait, are the tuples like
00:03:43 <ehird> (0,1,...)
00:03:46 <ehird> (1,2,...(
00:03:46 <ehird> )
00:03:50 <ehird> or is it all permutations
00:04:13 <bsmntbombdood> no
00:04:13 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: ?
00:04:43 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: which
00:04:51 <bsmntbombdood> could be (0, 2), (1, 2)
00:04:57 <fizzie> It's only possible if you have the right tuples, though. If you know D[0], Knowing D[0]^D[1], D[2]^D[3], D[2]^D[4]
00:05:03 <fizzie> Grah, backspace-problem.
00:05:07 <bsmntbombdood> fizzie: exactly
00:05:20 <ehird> ah and you wanna know what (a,b)s you need?
00:05:36 <bsmntbombdood> no, i know what a,b's i need
00:05:46 <bsmntbombdood> i need to get the data back
00:05:47 <bsmntbombdood> <bsmntbombdood> given A, A^D, D^B, B^E, E^C, you can solve for all A, B, C, D, E, right?
00:06:02 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: well
00:06:06 <ehird> A^(A^B)=B
00:06:09 <ehird> B^(A^B)=A
00:06:12 <ehird> you can figure it out frmo that
00:06:13 <ehird> *from
00:06:16 <bsmntbombdood> ...
00:06:59 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: if we have A, A^D, D^B then B=(D^B)^((A^D)^A)
00:07:02 <ehird> pretty obvious
00:07:14 <bsmntbombdood> oh shit i couldn't have guessed!
00:07:17 <fizzie> You can consider the (a,b) tuple as an edge in a graph, then just find a path that starts from 0 and visits each other vertex. (Then you can walk that path by moving from D[a] to D[b] using D[a] and D[a]^D[b].)
00:07:19 <bsmntbombdood> D is thousands of items long
00:07:20 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: i don't get your question
00:07:23 <ehird> well, yeah
00:07:35 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: only thousands is trivial though.
00:07:39 <ehird> well sorta.
00:08:22 <bsmntbombdood> ehird: ok, in a 120 minute 1080p movie, D is 1.7 billion items long
00:08:33 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: true dat.
00:08:36 <bsmntbombdood> so this needs to scale asymptotically well :P
00:08:40 <ehird> 00:07 fizzie: You can consider the (a,b) tuple as an edge in a graph, then just find a path that starts from 0 and visits each other vertex. (Then you can walk that path by moving from D[a] to D[b] using D[a] and D[a]^D[b].)
00:08:43 <ehird> sounds optimal
00:08:48 <bsmntbombdood> i don't get it
00:08:54 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: it's just graph-walking
00:09:06 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: ofc you want to do this at encode-time, right?
00:09:12 <ehird> you're not expecting to do this in real-time i hope
00:09:15 <bsmntbombdood> no,this is decoding
00:09:30 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: then it'll be far too slow
00:09:38 <bsmntbombdood> i don't think so
00:09:44 <fizzie> You don't of course actually need a single path that visits each vertex. You just need to have each vertex reachable from 0.
00:09:52 <bsmntbombdood> i was thinking to just keep a sparse array of data-dependencies
00:09:59 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: finding a shitload of short paths in 1.7 billion items?
00:10:06 <ehird> that'll take weeks, man
00:11:22 <bsmntbombdood> i don't think so
00:11:30 <bsmntbombdood> locality of reference is high
00:11:37 <ehird> fizzie: can you disillusion fizzie
00:12:00 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: btw this codec is useless if you can't decode fast, because otherwise you need the disk space for the full version :)
00:13:27 <fizzie> Well... if you have a bitmap of all the D[x]'s you know (initialized to contain only D[0]) you can just loop the following: for each known D[a], take all the (a,b) tuples for which D[b] is unknown and use D[a] and D[a]^D[b] to find out D[b]. Then stop when during one iteration you didn't discover any new D[b]'s. If there are any remaining unknown ones, you're out of luck.
00:14:01 <ehird> fizzie: That seems filesize-inflatingly.
00:14:26 <fizzie> I haven't really been following the context here; I was just talking about the abstract thing.
00:14:33 <fizzie> I was watching a lossily compressed movie. :p
00:14:35 <bsmntbombdood> keep a map of undecoded tuples, that you scan for dependencies, outputting as you go
00:16:29 <bsmntbombdood> wait it's easier than that
00:17:02 <ehird>  
00:17:30 <bsmntbombdood> the tuples go (1, 2), (2, 4), (4, 3), (3, 5)
00:17:38 <fizzie> If you're sure you actually have that case like "A, A^D, D^B, B^E, E^C, ..." where you have a single path, you can just directly walk through it by keeping the tuples in map where you can easily index by a.
00:18:02 <fizzie> (Or even in an array, ordered by a, since each one will only be there once.)
00:18:25 <bsmntbombdood> an array won't work because you can't keep a whole movie in memory
00:18:47 <ehird> i eagerly wait you decoding this fast enough to watch
00:18:55 -!- Gracenotes has joined.
00:21:03 <fizzie> If you don't want to keep the whole movie in memory, I guess you have some sort of thing there that you don't get a (1, [last block of the movie]) tuple.
00:21:35 <bsmntbombdood> yes

00:36:12 <bsmntbombdood> ok now i'm bored
00:38:23 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: turn green.
00:39:17 <bsmntbombdood> http://pastebin.ca/1459422
00:39:22 <bsmntbombdood> ehird: you can finish
00:39:34 <bsmntbombdood> that's your completely untested compressor
00:39:35 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: meh
00:39:43 <ehird> it own't it won't compress enough :)
00:47:56 <bsmntbombdood> wow now this is weird
00:48:09 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: wut
00:48:29 <bsmntbombdood> i started playing with elias-gamma coding results from just the sequential xoring
00:48:32 <bsmntbombdood> on integers
00:48:34 <ehird> yah?
00:48:51 <bsmntbombdood> it seems to work well with multiple passes
00:49:16 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: sweet
00:49:22 <ehird> you could just put it in a loop where it stops if it doesn't help :P
00:50:31 <bsmntbombdood> actually, it will expand a ton, then shrink back smaller
00:50:42 <ehird> hahaha
00:50:42 <bsmntbombdood> running on range(1000)
00:51:33 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: i'm not exactly sure how elias gamma would ever shorten it
00:52:37 <bsmntbombdood> easy
00:52:47 <bsmntbombdood> after xoring, you end up with lots of small numbers
00:53:20 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: but elias-gamma always is longer than the source
00:53:40 <bsmntbombdood> uhhuh
00:53:48 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elias_gamma_coding
00:53:50 <ehird> how am I wrong?
00:53:54 <ehird> it always prepends something to the binary
00:53:57 <ehird> thus it will never shrink
00:54:03 <bsmntbombdood> what do yo mean by source?
00:54:13 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: the number you're encoding
00:54:16 <bsmntbombdood> that's only meaningful for a certain encoding of source
00:54:16 * Kolonai ponders how to store and combine fractions of bits.
00:54:30 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: do you mean that elias-gammaing it, then gzipping, sometimes shortens it?
00:54:32 <ehird> i can believe that
00:54:35 <bsmntbombdood> no
00:54:44 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: so htf does it shorten it
00:55:03 <bsmntbombdood> you take 1, 1^2, 1^2^3, 1^2^3^4, etc
00:55:11 <bsmntbombdood> possibly more than once
00:55:19 <bsmntbombdood> then elias-gamma that
00:55:34 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: bitsin(elias-gamma(x))>bitsin(x).
00:55:39 <ehird> so elias-gamma can never shorten...
00:56:17 <bsmntbombdood> bitsin(natural number) is nonsensical
00:56:32 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: bitsinbinaryrepresentationof.
00:56:52 <bsmntbombdood> how do you encode an arbitrary natural number in binary?
00:57:11 <bsmntbombdood> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_code+
00:57:13 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: from [[Elias gamma coding]]:

00:57:17 <ehird> Write it in binary.
00:57:20 <ehird> QED.
00:57:52 <bsmntbombdood> sigh
00:57:59 <ehird> bsmntbombdood: you're saying that sometimes elias-gamma shortens the input
00:58:04 <ehird> that makes no fucking sense
00:58:21 <bsmntbombdood> how are you going to find the boundaries between the numbers?
00:58:31 <ehird> you're not
00:58:34 <ehird> but elias-gamma has overhead
00:58:36 <ehird> plain and simple
00:58:39 <ehird> IT CAN NEVER SHORTEN
00:58:45 <ehird> why are you dodging that?
00:58:52 <ehird> you are saying that elias gamma is shortening at some point
00:58:53 <ehird> that's nonsensical
00:58:54 <bsmntbombdood> shorten compared to _what_
00:59:00 <ehird> i don't freaking know
00:59:01 <ehird> you said it

01:22:39 <ehird> i'd say

01:22:50 <ehird> but it's not compression :P
01:23:22 <bsmntbombdood> uh, ok -- naively, using 18 bit ints, it takes 3600000 bits
01:23:51 <ehird> well,yeah
01:24:18 <bsmntbombdood> or, using elias gamma without any xoring, it takes 6475750 bits

01:24:32 <ehird> it's a good representation
01:24:34 <ehird> i'll give you that

10:24:54 -!- MizardX- has changed nick to MizardX.
10:25:33 <whtspc> at initialisation you have a infinite memory tape filled with 0's
10:26:40 <whtspc> every memory cell has the adress named by a natural number
10:27:18 <whtspc> the main syntax of the language is this:
10:27:30 <whtspc> 1:2#3
10:27:58 <AnMaster> hm
10:28:16 <AnMaster> whtspc, so how do you program in it?
10:28:18 <whtspc> which means that the result of the value at adress 2 NAND the value at adress 3 will be put in adress 1
10:28:21 <AnMaster> ah
10:28:48 <whtspc> 3:1#2/4:3#1/5:3#2/6:4#5
10:28:48 <AnMaster> whtspc, are the rules processed in order, iterating through the list?
10:29:07 <whtspc> if 1 is equal to 2, 6 is false (0)
10:29:14 <whtspc> Anmaster: yes
10:29:20 <AnMaster> mhm
10:29:58 <whtspc> You will be able to input with the following command ,adress
10:30:13 <whtspc> and it will put the binary byte starting at the adress
10:30:21 <whtspc> outpt: .adress
10:30:35 <AnMaster> whtspc, based on how bf does it?
10:30:36 <AnMaster> :P
10:30:51 <whtspc> well yes
10:31:08 <AnMaster> whtspc, hm, you can't skip input/output based on conditions can you?
10:31:10 <whtspc> so I need a thing for recursion that's more creative
10:31:31 <AnMaster> so you will always have to input/output a fixed number of bytes each iteration
10:32:24 <AnMaster> whtspc, are these rules separated by a newline in the input or?
10:32:25 <whtspc> It needs an if-construction
10:33:10 <AnMaster> hm
10:33:14 <whtspc> I like esolangs without newlines, so probably a / will separate the actions
10:33:52 <AnMaster> heh

10:35:36 <AnMaster> indeed
10:35:47 <whtspc> well, thank you
10:36:54 <whtspc> I find it rather boring to insert [ ] in the nand-language
10:37:15 <whtspc> it would probably look like 6[
10:37:34 <AnMaster> whtspc, that looks like some sort of IR representation for some optimising BF compiler
10:37:36 <AnMaster> :)
10:37:36 <whtspc> if memorycell 6 is false skip the parentheses
10:37:51 <AnMaster> whtspc, you need more nand
10:38:13 <AnMaster> what about "if memory cell x nand y != memory cell z then"
10:38:17 <AnMaster> or something like that
10:38:32 <AnMaster> or maybe fix z to 0 or such
10:38:39 <whtspc> excuse me but what's IR representation?
10:39:09 <AnMaster> whtspc, oops, that would be "Intermediate Representation representation"
10:39:10 <whtspc> more NAND to complicate, or as feature?
10:39:17 <AnMaster> so drop one of those representation,
10:39:27 <AnMaster> s/,/./
10:39:34 <AnMaster> whtspc, not sure.
10:39:54 <AnMaster> whtspc, is that bitwise nand btw?
10:40:05 <whtspc> yep
10:40:12 <AnMaster> so how large is each "cell"?
10:40:24 <whtspc> one bit
10:40:33 <whtspc> true or false
10:40:38 <AnMaster> hm ok. So then it is same as logical nand for this purpose
10:42:47 <whtspc> Could one cell (for instance cell 0) be the checkup cell for iteration?
10:43:19 <whtspc> so the program is divided in portions with eg. char !
10:44:02 <whtspc> when program reaches ! it checks memory cell 0, if true go back to previos !
10:44:14 <AnMaster> hm
10:44:39 <AnMaster> whtspc, might work. You need some way to shuffle data to/from this cell in between
10:44:49 <AnMaster> also another question. How do you fill in initial values
10:45:09 <AnMaster> wait. with nand that isn't an issue is it?
10:45:15 <whtspc> A:A#A
10:45:19 <AnMaster> with 'and' it would be.
10:45:27 <whtspc> the initial value is 0
10:45:48 <AnMaster> nand always confuse me. Probably because most languages doesn't have it.
10:45:53 <AnMaster> C doesn't iirc for example.
10:45:56 <whtspc> memA NAND memA  is the same as not memA
10:46:01 <whtspc> which makes it 1
10:46:04 <AnMaster> indeed
10:46:07 <ais523> AnMaster: !(a && b)
10:46:10 <ais523> = a NAND b
10:46:12 <AnMaster> ais523, right
10:46:24 <ais523> no need for a separate operator, you can trivially form it out of the ones you have
10:46:31 <AnMaster> ais523, right.
10:47:42 <whtspc> if you have one cell to check for returning back to previous !
10:47:55 <whtspc> I think you can't have loops in loops
10:49:58 <AnMaster> whtspc, can't you shuffle the value around
10:50:22 <AnMaster> like "move loop cell to cell x, move cell y to loop cell"
10:50:22 <whtspc> ?
10:50:32 <AnMaster> not sure how you would do that with nand
10:50:38 <AnMaster> but might be possible?
10:50:59 <ais523> you can swap two values with just nands
10:51:07 <ais523> make the nands into xors and do an xor swap
10:51:31 <whtspc> that would be very interesting
10:52:47 <whtspc> or maybe it'sjust the same as checking wether the state of a certain cell is true/false
10:52:59 <whtspc> but complicated with swapping
10:54:11 <AnMaster> think so
10:58:35 <whtspc> other thing that worries me a bit is that when an adress isn't pointed to in the program, it can never be part of execution
10:58:43 <whtspc> but I don't know if that
10:58:54 <whtspc> is problem to make working language
11:12:32 <whtspc> Oh, and the name of the language would probably refer to a certain ABBA song
11:13:06 <whtspc> FERnO
11:13:12 <whtspc> FER#O
11:13:23 <whtspc> fernando
11:13:47 <whtspc> because more esolangs should refer to ABBA-songs

18:13:41 <ehird> *hahaha
18:15:54 <pikhq> ehird: Beat him with ubermensch.
18:16:01 <ehird> hmm
18:16:02 <ehird> [[After sleep deprivation there is a sharp rebound of SWS, suggesting there is a "need" for this stage.]]
18:16:07 <ehird> uberman's skips that stage
18:16:11 <ehird> it goes straight from a quick stage 1 to REM
18:16:21 <ehird> otoh i've never heard anyone doing uberman's properly actually have any problems
18:17:10 <pikhq> I've heard of problems.
18:17:15 <pikhq> All of them social.
18:17:21 <ehird> well, yes
18:18:22 <ehird> pikhq: otoh polyphasic sleep doesn't inherently impair social stuff
18:18:34 <ehird> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphasic_sleep#Comparison_of_sleep_patterns
18:18:39 <ehird> for instance, biphasic there is trivial
18:18:44 <ehird> you just reserve some time at noon
18:18:57 <pikhq> It's not inherent, it's just that it's tricky to take a nap every few hours. ;P
18:19:09 <ehird> pikhq: however... a woman with a kid and everything (the inventor of Uberman) is doing Everyman
18:19:16 <pikhq> Hmm.
18:19:23 <ehird> (= uberman but 4 naps instead of 6, and one is longer)
18:19:37 <ehird> lemme dig a link

18:21:01 <ehird> pikhq: but i could see, say, spending the day in another town would be difficult
18:21:09 <ehird> obviously
18:21:24 <ehird> since you'd have to sleep on a bench somewhere while everyone else you're with goes off and does whatever :P
18:21:31 <ehird> apart from that though...
18:22:10 <ehird> pikhq: the guy who thinks "Uberman" invented it says they gave up after four days because they had no idea what to do with 22 hour days
18:22:14 <ehird> they're barmy!
18:22:19 <ehird> days are sooooo short
18:22:28 <ehird> htf do you think that
18:22:33 <ehird> unless you're mr bored mcboredson
18:23:01 <pikhq> I'm capable of using all 24 hours in a day.
18:23:41 <ehird> yah. gimme some sunlight and a rested body and i'll never, ever want to stop
18:24:01 <ehird> despite this i accomplish very little; but that's just adhd-esqueness and perfectionism :)
18:24:22 <ehird> "Like one day I set my alarm clock, lied down on my bed, laid my head on my pillow, and the alarm clock sounded. I slowly got up and looked at it. Twenty minutes had passed in what felt like one second. It was the fastest I’ve ever gone to sleep in my life."
18:24:30 <ehird> i wonder if this works for someone who can never sleep :)
18:24:34 <Asztal> my mum likes Ridiculously Absent Toccata
18:25:54 <ehird> it's very likeable
18:26:16 <ehird> apparently lucid dreaming is a lot easier w/ uberman's and dream recall is perfect
18:26:20 <ehird> SimonRC should try it :-)
18:26:36 <GregorR> Uberman's is sounding more fake every minute.
18:27:06 <ehird> GregorR: howso?
18:27:11 <pikhq> My roommate did polyphasic sleep last semester.
18:27:15 <ehird> multiple independent sources have tried it and gone through with it
18:27:18 <pikhq> I think it lasted a couple of weeks.
18:27:19 <ehird> and reported the same effects
18:27:31 <pikhq> He then went back to his 2-4 hours of sleep at night.
18:27:32 <ehird> and the two who have done it are very avid about it
18:27:37 <ehird> i don't see why it'd be some prank
18:29:06 <ehird> GregorR: also, infants sleep polyphasically
18:29:16 <ehird> 80% of their sleep is REM — just like napping schedules.
18:29:23 <ehird> GregorR: and they sleep sporadically in ~20 minute bursts.
18:30:23 <pikhq> Also, the human norm is biphasic sleep.
18:30:30 <ehird> yeah
18:30:34 <pikhq> (see: siesta)
18:30:57 <ehird> if you let it go naturally — which our culture doesn't — you start polyphasic then transition to biphasic, which is a minor change, really
18:31:02 <ehird> just consolidating one to three naps
18:31:10 <ehird> so really, uberman's is just tweaking it a little /shrug
18:31:24 -!- inurinternet has joined.
18:32:26 <ehird> my main problem with uberman's will be giving up caffeine
18:33:04 <ehird> you could do caffeine on everyman's and biphasic
18:33:22 <ehird> but unless you have just a small amount right after waking in Uberman's, yer gonna miss your nap
18:33:27 <GregorR> I can play the first 1/2 page of Onerously Uptight Toccata! (Up to the first 8va)

18:33:53 <ehird> GregorR: cool, that track is really catchy
18:34:10 <GregorR> Nope, I don't care to expand on it :P
18:34:20 <ehird> then why'd you say it >:|
18:34:29 <GregorR> Because I'm an ass?
18:34:47 <ehird> Your loss :P
18:35:30 <ehird> LOL
18:35:38 <ehird> someone commented saying that dreams happen in non-REM
18:35:43 <GregorR> (Re: OUT) It's tough to learn because it's so distinctly non-human ... rarely do you in normal music have one hand syncopated while the other isn't, and never is one hand off by a 16th note. Also, neither hand sounds particularly musical by itself, but the emergent sound of both is musical, so it's hard to learn one hand at a time.
18:35:44 <AnMaster> GregorR, I was wondering if it was a fake too...
18:35:44 <ehird> while almost all recalled dreams happen in REM...
18:35:52 <ehird> AnMaster: why?
18:35:58 <ehird> i don't get how it sounds realistic
18:36:02 <ehird> it's not some silver bullet
18:36:06 <ehird> the downsides are obvious
18:36:13 <AnMaster> ehird, "<ehird> i don't get how it sounds realistic" <-- huh?
18:36:15 <ehird> but it makes perfect sense, sicentifically
18:36:17 <ehird> AnMaster: unrealistic
18:36:19 <AnMaster> ah
18:36:20 <ehird> a simple typo
18:36:23 <AnMaster> yeah
18:36:24 <ehird> *scientifically
18:36:25 <AnMaster> was confusing though
18:36:37 <ehird> GregorR: yeah, it is rather alien
18:37:17 <AnMaster> food is ready :)
18:37:20 <AnMaster> bbiab
18:37:21 <GregorR> Also the fact that the first rest of any kind (just not playing very fast) hasn't come yet :P
18:37:53 <ehird> it's so fun being a crazy child
18:38:04 <ehird> GregorR: you should assemble a band to play it
18:38:10 <ehird> on the original instruments
18:38:16 <ehird> drums, steel drums and guitar
18:38:27 <GregorR> lawl
18:38:40 <GregorR> I don't think that steel drums can actually do that :P
18:38:51 <ehird> GregorR: I've played steel drums and heard songs made with them
18:38:58 <ehird> Nothing unrealistic sounding there.
18:39:13 <GregorR> You can only play two notes at once, right?
18:39:15 <ehird> GregorR: The pitch-changing drums might pose more of a problem; just get a few different-sounding ones.
18:39:19 <GregorR> There are three- and four-note chords.
18:39:25 <ehird> GregorR: Also, you have multiple steel drums :P
18:39:45 <GregorR> Yes, I know, but you have to use your hands to play them, and you only have two hands :P
18:39:49 <GregorR> OH
18:39:52 <GregorR> Multiple PLAYERS
18:39:56 <ehird> Yes
18:40:05 <GregorR> That makes sense X-P
18:40:10 <GregorR> Yes, that would be bitchin' sweet.
18:40:28 <GregorR> But finding one steel drum player in West Lafayette, Indiana would be nigh on impossible, finding two? Silly :P
18:40:50 <ehird> GregorR: I'll find one and we can both fly off there. I will play the instrument person coördinator. :P
18:41:01 <ehird> Two, rather.
18:41:14 <GregorR> I'll, uh, conduct, as I play none of those instruments.
18:41:20 <GregorR> I'll also do the lyrics.
18:41:27 <ehird> GregorR: I'm sure you can hit some differently-pitched drums of one kind.
18:41:39 <ehird> [the drum line :P]
18:41:41 <ehird> [not steel]
18:41:47 <GregorR> Yuh
18:41:47 <ehird> GregorR: wow, lyrics would have to be über-weird
18:41:51 <ehird> what time signature is it in?
18:42:01 <ehird> well, whatever time signature it's in, it's idiosyncratic even for it :)
18:42:16 <GregorR> 4/4

19:46:04 * pikhq discovered how getline is implemented.
19:47:21 <pikhq> It reads in a few bytes, then recurses. When it hits the end of what it's been asked to get, it mallocs enough space for the buffer, sticks its few bytes in there, then returns.
19:48:25 <ehird> Heh, a popular polyphasic forum bans people under 18 because wooo scary dangerous :-)

19:50:09 <ais523> uberman's?
19:50:30 <ehird> ais523: polyphasic sleep schedule based around naps consisting of almost entirely REM sleep instead of long sleep
19:50:40 <ehird> 20 hour nap once every 4 hours.
19:50:40 <ais523> ah
19:50:46 <ehird> obviously, nigh-on impossible to adjust to.
19:50:49 <ais523> err, ?
19:50:58 <ehird> ais523: clarify "?" :P
19:51:00 <ais523> 20 > 4
19:51:06 <ehird> err
19:51:09 <ehird> 20 minute nap once every 4 hours
19:51:16 <ehird> lol twenty hour nap :D
19:55:40 <ehird> I wonder how established polyphasists go back to monophasic sleep
19:55:58 <ehird> Maybe by attempting to burn out and not using an alarm so that your naps relapse into regular sleep
19:56:39 <ais523> I was semiphasic for about a week
19:56:42 <ais523> sleeping once per two days
19:56:57 <ais523> to get back to monophasic, wake up in the morning a few days in a row deliberately
19:57:08 <ais523> you get instantaneously rather tired, but everything's back to normal before long
19:57:33 <ehird> ais523: 0.5-phasic isn't really comparable to >1-phasic :)
19:58:32 <ehird> ais523: because if you try and go to monophasic from polyphasic, you'll become extremely tired after the 4 hours
19:58:43 <ehird> ais523: then if you sleep, you'll go through the compact nap schedule and wake up in 20 minutes
19:59:06 <ehird> so i theorize you have to do that, stay awake for as long as you can, then try and extend the naps as long as possible
19:59:14 <ehird> probably only take 2-3 cycles to relapse
20:05:23 <ehird> the polyphasic week: monday, jutfay, tuesday, mantfay, wednesday, tofay, thursday, notefay, friday, tipperfay, saturday, ratafay, sunday, lunnerfay
20:08:31 <ehird> where the new ones take up 10PM-6AM
20:09:09 <ais523> polyphasic probably isn't compatible with school/work
20:09:36 <ehird> ais523: it has been done
20:10:21 <ehird> ais523: heck, the woman who named it does everyman (uberman except one "core nap" which is a bit longer at night) and she has a kid
20:10:28 <ehird> but admittedly, probably not the easiest thing.
20:10:44 <ehird> ais523: still, it's just a matter of finding 20 minutes every 4 hours
20:10:55 <ehird> personally, if I couldn't find that sort of time anyway, I'd burn out

22:39:21 <ehird> 14:38:59 <ehird> GregorR: Starting with which?
22:39:23 <ehird> from clog
22:39:26 <GregorR> I'm getting supermegaultralag.
22:39:33 <pikhq> GregorR: More lag than my system.
22:39:39 <pikhq> And my packets GO TO ORBIT.

23:17:36 <ehird> omg
23:17:41 <ehird> I found a legit use for "f (a, b, c)" style
23:24:03 <olsner> orly?
23:24:56 <ehird> olsner: yep
23:25:09 <ehird> olsner: when all functions take one argument, and the convention is tuple for multiple arguments
23:25:14 <ehird> then it's logical
23:26:01 -!- Kolonai has changed nick to Aneu.
23:27:13 <Aneu> In Haskell, at least, f(a, b, c) is perfectly valid notation for that.
23:27:47 <Aneu> And I think ordinary function notation usually allows saying f (a, b, c).
23:28:14 <ehird> Aneu: Of course, it can be valid.
23:28:28 <ehird> But if "f x" is the function call syntax, "f (a, b, c)" is a logical convention for multiple arguments.
23:28:33 <ehird> In other languages, however, this convention is retarded.
23:30:39 * ehird invents a nice new language.
23:30:42 <olsner> I'd say haskell completely lacks multiple-argument functions, but you can simulate them by either sticking stuff in a tuple or by currying
23:30:52 <ehird> It's like Haskell without some awkward syntax and with some nice stuff.
23:30:55 <ehird> olsner: yah
23:31:01 <ehird> but if the convention was to use tuples,
23:31:08 <ehird> and "f x" was still how one argument calls were accepted,
23:31:12 <ehird> "f (a, b, c)" makes sense
