00:59:53 <quintopia> true that

01:20:27 <RocketJSquirrel> quintopia: CHDK is pretty great, btw.
01:21:14 <quintopia> youve hacked it?
01:22:08 <RocketJSquirrel> I've just installed CHDK and made some scripts. Installing CHDK barely counts as hacking anything since it doesn't even overwrite the PROM.
01:24:53 <quintopia> but writing scripts yourself counts
01:24:56 <quintopia> what do they do
01:26:21 <RocketJSquirrel> I have one that just lets you save virtually every aspect of the camera's optic settings so that you can take pictures (in the same scene) without fear of it randomly deciding to do different exposure settings or what have you.
01:26:34 <RocketJSquirrel> But still lets you autodetect them the first time since it's not terribly bad at that.
01:27:13 <RocketJSquirrel> I had one that's basically just a continuous-shot mode a bit better than its inbuilt one ...

04:30:00 <zzo38> In Dungeons&Dragons game, I used spell Extend Tentacles for a defensive use, although probably the intended purpose of such a spell is for attacking, I tried a defensive use to open a door which I believed was trapped (although it turned out not to be trapped, but I thought it was trapped).
04:32:03 <Sgeo> I wonder what it would be like for zzo38 to play Paranoia.
04:36:11 <zzo38> At first the door was locked. I thought that it was trapped as well, and I had a black dagger which I believed would unlock the door and disable the trap; actually it did not even manage to unlock it. After the other wizard unlocked it, I thought that since it wasn't unlocked in the proper way that it must have a trap.

10:30:16 <shachaf> I have one program which is an answer to all four challenges.
10:30:33 <fizziew> Is it the empty program. :'''(
10:31:01 <shachaf> It is the empty program, fizziew.
10:31:06 <shachaf> I'm sorry.. :-(
10:31:13 <fizziew> You must send em an empty email.
10:31:26 <shachaf> I guess you could argue that the empty program isn't readable.
10:31:30 <shachaf> Since there's nothing to read.
10:31:46 <shachaf> But every nonempty subprogram of the empty program is readable.

11:04:39 <elliott> "Honestly, if you ask me, the only reason Haskellers get away with this kind of stuff (particularly when naming arguments to functions, let bindings, etc) is because the compiler saves their bacon and ensures they don't accidentally use the wrong character in the wrong place, as the compiler almost always catches such errors. If it were any other language, the practice would've been stamped out long ago as it would be untenable."
11:04:51 <elliott> shachaf: Did you know that mathematicians never use one-letter variables?
11:04:55 <elliott> That's because they don't have a compiler.
11:09:50 <fizziew> I thought they all used Math 4.52 to compile their proofs.

15:38:39 <elliott> True!
15:39:03 <elliott> RocketJSquirrel: P.S. sshing in to esolangs.org is grievous sin; "ssh solidity" is the only acceptable phrasing.
15:40:11 <mroman> Is there some notation for formulating "sequences" of logic "conclusion"?
15:40:16 <mroman> I.e
15:40:51 <RocketJSquirrel> Are there any matrix-math-based esolangs?
15:41:04 <mroman> Given Q, by Axiom P we know A' and therefore Q = Q', further by Axiom P1 we know A'' and therefore Q' = Q''
15:41:11 <RocketJSquirrel> If not, I think Matrix of Solidity is begging to be linguified. Also I may have already mentioned this possibility.
15:41:23 <elliott> mroman: Any proof verifier's input?
15:41:29 <elliott> Metamath works purely on modus ponens deduction steps.

15:41:36 <elliott> The proofs are exceedingly ugly, though.

15:42:47 <mroman> elliott: I'm not intending to feed it to a proof verifier

15:43:12 <RocketJSquirrel> X_X
15:43:35 <elliott> mroman: But, uhh, doesn't *any* proof notation satisfy that?
15:43:38 <RocketJSquirrel> nortti: WTF could "matrix math" POSSIBLY MEAN if I was referring to the movie?
15:43:58 <elliott> I mean, does natural deduction count?
15:44:04 <mroman> I don't know any proof notation ;)
15:44:08 <mroman> (yet)
15:44:35 <fizziew> RocketJSquirrel: I don't know, they speak a lot of "the one" in the movie, that's quite mathy!
15:44:36 <mroman> I know predicate logic

16:46:51 -!- nortti has quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.88.1 [Firefox 11.0/20120312200651]).
16:47:35 -!- nortti has joined.
16:48:47 <nortti> why the fuck does one put disconnect from server right next to close tab and make it so it doesn't ask if I want to do it on a mouse driven interface!?
16:53:48 -!- Mathnerd314 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds).
16:54:27 <Phantom_Hoover> nortti, there's a key combination on XChat which I don't actually know but is very easy to hit accidentally which exits the current channel.
16:55:58 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover: Ctrl+W?
16:56:06 <Phantom_Hoover> I don't think so.
16:56:18 <Phantom_Hoover> That's not too easy to hit accidentally, for one.
16:57:22 <nortti> Well at lest once I have made TenFourFox ask if I want to quit this one is eliminated, but before I found this setting in about:config I very usually pressed Cmd-Q instead of Cmd-W and then it quit the browser and disconnected me from any irc channels I had open
17:00:06 <elliott> The problem is that you're using ChatZilla for some incomprehensible reason.
17:01:10 <nortti> elliott: irssi didn't want to compile and my own client only supports one channel at a time
17:01:22 <Phantom_Hoover> XChat?
17:01:25 <elliott> XChat? Wait, it's OS X. Limechat?
17:02:02 <elliott> Or that MacIrssi thing. I don't know if it's any good.
17:02:21 <nortti> elliott: what is wrong with ChatZilla.
17:02:56 <nortti> elliott: I run OS X 10.4, so nothing really runs on this unless I compile it from source
17:02:57 <Phantom_Hoover> You have to use Firefox to use it?
17:03:57 <nortti> Phantom_Hoover: what is wrong with Firefox (by the way I don't use Firefox, but rather TenFourFox)
17:03:59 <elliott> nortti: It's terrible.
17:04:00 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover: Not technically true.
17:04:27 <nortti> elliott: what makes it terrible?
17:05:34 <elliott> It simply has generally awful UI and behaviour in comparison to basically every other client (apart from all the other ones that suck).
17:06:18 <nortti> elliott: I
17:06:53 <nortti> I have no problem with it except the disconnect from server thing
17:07:08 -!- Mathnerd314 has joined.
17:07:22 <Phantom_Hoover> Yet another reason not to use it.
17:07:41 <nortti> and I also hate when enter press counts when you basicaly move your finger next to it
17:07:58 <nortti> but that's problem with my keyboard

17:08:59 <RocketJSquirrel> (By which I mean SOUUUUUUUUUUR)
17:13:27 <elliott> RocketJSquirrel: ANYWAY <elliott> RocketJSquirrel: Totally relatedly, if someone models a vector image on a photograph, is that a derivative work? What if it's traced?
17:13:27 <elliott> <elliott> I would assume "probably not" and "yes".
17:14:49 <RocketJSquirrel> wtf do I know X-D
17:15:10 <RocketJSquirrel> I would assume "yes but perhaps falls under fair use" and "yes and you'll go to *IAA prison"
17:16:05 <RocketJSquirrel> I assume that, per Commons policy, you'll be making this vector image with vim, and not a *gasp* VECTOR ART PROGRAM.
17:18:33 <elliott> Naturally.
17:18:38 <elliott> Actually I was going to order someone else to do it.

17:50:40 <RocketJSquirrel> Seems that way.
17:50:54 <RocketJSquirrel> An Adobe chip.

17:54:58 -!- fizzie has joined.
17:55:46 <RocketJSquirrel> elliott: By the way, since I let the whole conversation go without a word, the yellow on the homepage is too obtrusive. Hyuk hyuk hyuk.
17:56:31 <tswett> RocketJSquirrel: I was going to /whois you, but it's pretty clear who you are from your last twelve messages.
17:56:35 <tswett> Use this information wisely.
17:57:12 <tswett> Now. This one answer on StackOverflow says, "Java doesn't support shared memory because it's very OS specific". Is there something OS-specific about shared memory itself, or is it just that setting it up is OS-specific?
17:57:33 <elliott> RocketJSquirrel: It's the FEATURED LANGUAGE, man.
17:57:37 <tswett> I mean, the *concept* of shared memory seems pretty simple. There doesn't seem to be much wiggle room in "there's this region of memory that multiple running programs can access".
17:57:49 <elliott> tswett: "This one answer on Stack Overflow says," === "This following statement is complete bullshit,"
17:58:09 <elliott> But yes, there is no portable shared memory API, just like there's no portable practically-anything API.
17:58:14 <tswett> Hm. I can believe that.
17:58:23 <elliott> POSIX has its own thing and it's awful, Windows presumably has its own thing and it's almost certainly twice as awful.
17:58:43 <elliott> Java achieves "write once, run anywhere" by barely letting you talk to the OS at all.
17:59:40 <elliott> RocketJSquirrel: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:SVG_Simplified This is amazing.
18:00:08 <elliott> "It is suggested to order the files by their reduction ratio:
18:00:08 <elliott> When Trine-symbol.svg from 26 August 2007 had a size of 2022 and is now 188 bytes, the quotient 188/2022 is 0.09297725; the first four digits after the "0." are the sorting key, written [[Category:SVG Simplified| 0929]], with a space between the "|"-stroke and the four digits to prevent group 0..9 creation."
18:00:29 <pikhq_> And of course *Linux* shared memory is a still different thing.
18:00:38 <pikhq_> (/dev/shm)
18:00:40 <RocketJSquirrel> elliott: Sarang is my hero X-D

18:01:18 <elliott> IT'S SO SMALL THOUGH
18:01:46 <RocketJSquirrel> lol
18:01:53 <pikhq_> Huh, Windows shared memory is not horrifying.
18:02:03 <pikhq_> It's done via their mmap-alike.
18:02:04 <olsner> "disgarbaged version" :)
18:07:32 <fizzie> Perhaps someone should just buy some limes and recreate a known-not-infringing version.
18:07:39 <Deewiant> Ah, now I remember why catalyst was preferred to xf86-video-ati: "dynpm only works when a single head is active".
18:07:54 <elliott> fizzie: No, it must be Those Specific Limes.
18:08:01 <elliott> fizzie: Spiritual reasons.
18:08:41 <Deewiant> And using the "low" profile was annoyingly louder than catalyst. Ah well, maybe I'll try again anyway.

18:38:21 <elliott> fizzie: That was the intention.
18:38:28 <elliott> kareha.pl/ contains files like "l50" which are HTML.
18:39:09 <fizzie> Oh, so you *want* to try running sed also on directories that have a name that ends up in ".html".
18:39:54 <elliott> fizzie: Well... there are exactly two HTML files not in kareha.pl. :p
18:40:20 <fizzie> "How is there even a file inside a Perl script I don't get it BRAIN BORKE"
18:41:23 <elliott> fizzie: Because Deewiant wgetted a site which had /kareha.pl/ CGI URLs. :p
18:42:36 <fizzie> Nooooo, I think you are having some sort of a system where you can write paths like that and it will make whatever the executable provides available as a userland filesystem style thing.
18:43:20 <fizzie> Wasn't there something like that? Any executable could provide a filesystem. Or maybe I'm just thinking of some zzo comments.
18:43:21 <elliott> Yes, that's true also.
18:44:27 <fizzie> <zzo38> And also a directory /proc/$$/9p/ which contains a filesystem that the process program can create itself.
18:44:35 <fizzie> I think that was what I was thinking about.
18:46:32 <elliott> "I think I'll use this forum to post my ideas about my version of C in which the source code is written with s-expressions. If someone happens to reply with something I don't like, I'll just call them an idiot and ignore them. Warned."
18:46:42 <elliott> See, without Deewiant and I, things like this would be lost to the universe.
18:48:09 <olsner> ooh, I could then use my s-expression-to-templates translator to build a c compiler in templates

18:54:16 <olsner> "now 0.21% of previous size"
18:54:21 <fizzie> Is there a category for images done in POV-Ray? I remember that the angry Riemann sphere had POV source code in the image description.
18:54:34 <fizzie> (It could maybe do with some minimization.)
18:55:15 <olsner> I like how it's quite obviously different even when only looking at the thumbnail
18:56:22 <elliott> olsner: don't you just mean the "fix blue" one

19:04:21 <elliott> oh, fair enough
19:04:27 <elliott> but it's not part of minimisation, is what i meant

19:28:52 <elliott> Then it didn't.
19:29:08 <elliott> Now I keep thinking "I should delete that", but then that turns into "I should find a way to work a link to that into the main page".

19:43:22 <olsner> I stole the colors from fizzie
19:44:01 <olsner> maybe we should just gcolor "lower right lime"
19:44:23 <elliott> fizzie knows all about gcolor.
19:44:36 <elliott> Oh, you actually meant that gcolor.
19:44:48 <elliott> I thought you meant use gcolor's colour picker to find the colour of the lime.
19:45:22 <olsner> no, or did I? maybe I did, I dunno.. isn't gcolor what it was called?
19:45:26 <elliott> Yes.
19:45:33 <elliott> fizzie's thing.
19:45:41 <olsner> yes, exactly
19:45:59 <elliott> But seriously: with a better colour for the bottom-right lime, the proper "two-part" border (dark green on outside, lightest green on inside) I'll seriously consider using it :P

19:47:03 <elliott> Deewiant: Did you want me to set that as the logo? :p
19:50:13 <olsner> elliott: that's like 10 times the amount of SVG I intended to write today
19:51:01 <elliott> olsner: You hand-wrote that thing?
19:51:09 <elliott> Well, I guess it is OPTOMIZED(tm).
19:51:45 <olsner> I just replaced the rectangles with circles of the same size
19:52:28 <Mathnerd314> you didn't use stroke/fill patterns...
19:52:49 <olsner> Mathnerd314: how could I? I don't know what those are :)
19:53:58 <Mathnerd314> http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/painting.html#StrokeProperties
19:55:53 <Mathnerd314> should be 90% easier than using two circles...
19:56:01 <elliott> FSVO 90%
19:56:34 <Mathnerd314> yeah, probably around 40%
19:56:42 <Mathnerd314> (if you measure ease by LOC)
19:56:49 <elliott> who doesn't
19:56:54 <Mathnerd314> *bytes of code
19:57:30 <olsner> Mathnerd314: hmm, waiting for you to do it for us sounds like 100% easier
19:57:48 <olsner> now that you've determined what the Proper way to do it is, it's trivial
19:57:54 <Mathnerd314> nope, I have no efficient text editors
19:58:01 <elliott> use an inefficient one
19:58:17 <Mathnerd314> my fingers disagree
19:58:50 <elliott> your fingers don't even have a brain
19:59:41 <Mathnerd314> they have neurons which are registering feelings I generally associate with pain
20:00:54 <elliott> ah, less talking on irc, more fixing olsner's svg, then
20:01:08 <elliott> hth
20:01:30 <olsner> you know, fizzie is the real winner here
20:02:45 <fizzie> The colors were entirely accurate: I used Gimp's color picker tool to pick them. Admittedly, they're maybe not the *right* accurate colors, but they're certainly colors that existed in the image.
20:03:06 <olsner> (post three brown rectangles on IRC, wait for trilime)
20:03:07 <elliott> fizzie: I suggest making everything transparent, then :P
20:03:09 <Mathnerd314> fizzie: did you pixelate beforehand?
20:03:27 <fizzie> http://esolangs.org/w/images/c/c9/Logo.png says 135x131, I don't know anything else about sizes.
20:03:41 <elliott> Anyway, fizzie and olsner have enslaved themselves; I will now expect them to increment this towards looking like the logo.
20:04:06 <elliott> fizzie: 135x155 is the size of Wikipedia's logo (and thus what the skins are designed for).
20:04:09 <elliott> The trilime is a bit lopsided.

20:26:28 <olsner> oerjan: also, the full name is better
20:26:51 <elliott> I feel compelled to point out that ion used the wrong kind of apostrophe.
20:27:02 <elliott> It's just a '.
20:27:19 <elliott> ais523: Speaking of, I might sit down and spec out Johny sometime.
20:27:28 <oerjan> then we can create a new category for language's whose names should never be acronymized. three is enough for a category, right?

20:28:33 <oerjan> elliott: INTERCAL and Adjudicated Blind Collaborative Design Esolang Factory
20:28:38 <elliott> ais523: Well, no. But I figure a language that doesn't fit the name is just as good.
20:29:43 <ion> ' is a kluge made to decrease the number of keys in mechanical typewriters and later to free some codepoints in ASCII.
20:31:02 <elliott> ion: And a kludge the spammer lovingly adopted.

20:36:50 <Mathnerd314> ais523: my point was it makes tab-complete difficult

20:40:13 <Phantom_Hoover> Why?
20:40:26 <Taneb> How do I get code-formatted markup in a table?
20:40:32 <elliott> All I really know about Crawl is that I hate its interface and a bunch of silly Windows users play it, so it most be terrible.
20:40:45 <ais523> Phantom_Hoover: devs are taking it in the wrong direction
20:40:45 <elliott> Taneb: you can start a new line after the | and use the space method, or just use <pre>
20:40:50 <elliott> Taneb: if it's just one-line code, use <code> instead
20:40:56 <elliott> Well, also what ais523 has told me.
20:40:58 <Phantom_Hoover> Which wrong direction?
20:41:07 <ais523> there seems to be some sort of crusade against tactics
20:41:16 <Phantom_Hoover> wat
20:41:16 <ais523> and the game tends to tend in the direction of obfuscating complexity
20:41:25 <ais523> security through obscurity makes no sense in a roguelike…

20:42:45 <fizzie> elliott: Quite easy.
20:43:24 <oerjan> elliott: btw is there a way to say that all <pre>'s inside a table should have class="plain" automatically? i am starting to think that would be useful...
20:43:28 <ais523> oerjan: interesting fact: while I have written several MiniMAX interps, I have never dared to run any of them
20:43:35 <ais523> also, does class="plain" on the table work?
20:43:39 <elliott> ais523: No.
20:43:41 <elliott> oerjan: I could do it like .plainlinks.
20:43:56 <elliott> oerjan: Instead of <pre class="plain">, it'd be any <pre> inside a .plainpre
20:44:19 <oerjan> elliott: i _tried_ if class="pre.plain" would work, but alas :(
20:44:35 <elliott> oerjan: No, that doesn't make any sense at all :)
20:45:01 <oerjan> elliott: it was just a wild guess
20:45:15 <elliott> oerjan: Okay, done. (The existing uses will have to be fixed.)
20:45:30 <oerjan> yay
20:45:43 <elliott> Just class="plainpre" on something surrounding it and remove the <<class="plain">>s.
20:45:51 <elliott> Wait, make that plainpres.
20:48:44 <elliott> oerjan: By the way, I upgraded MediaWiki and you haven't even thanked me yet.
20:48:59 <oerjan> ais523: nice synchronicity - it was your MiniMax table that convinced me that something like plainpres was needed :)
20:49:19 <ais523> oerjan: I saw you editing MiniMAX, and being unsure why you were doing so
20:49:21 <ais523> have you figured it out yet?
20:49:31 <ais523> (I was commenting on MiniMAX /because/ you were editing it)
20:49:35 <oerjan> figured out what?
20:50:27 <oerjan> ais523: i just thought i should add a proper table, after doing so for the TC proof
20:50:45 <ais523> why you were editing it
20:50:50 <oerjan> ais523: also i hit the latter by pressing random
20:50:57 <oerjan> *clicking
20:51:14 <elliott> ais523: he was unsure why he started his formatting because it's a lot of work, presumably
20:51:37 <oerjan> hm i guess press is also correct in english
20:51:49 <elliott> pressing is OK
20:51:53 <elliott> usually for buttons though

21:09:16 <pikhq_> nortti: char must be at least 8 bits by ISO C, so they're already screwed.
21:09:19 <elliott> The design patterns answer, I mean.
21:09:23 <elliott> One of you upvoted me.
21:09:25 <elliott> CONFESS.
21:09:45 <elliott> You should totally, like, retract that and do it after midnight so I get the rep. :p
21:13:34 <pikhq_> Oh, and apparently "char" is defined to be an octet in POSIX. Hey.

22:15:36 <elliott> oerjan: i'm not going to make them look like completely external links...
22:15:47 <elliott> they use the same colours as external links
22:16:04 <oerjan> elliott: my main point here is that if there is a link to a wikipedia article on a subject which we _might_ want on our wiki ourselves, then it should not look visually to a casual observer like we already _have_ one.
22:16:25 <oerjan> even if there's a slight difference.
22:16:48 <elliott> oerjan: if we might want an article on a subject, an interwiki link is inappropriate...
22:16:58 <elliott> i could look into adding a "W" icon to the wikipedia interwiki links
22:20:05 <oerjan> <elliott> oerjan: if we might want an article on a subject, an interwiki link is inappropriate... <-- i don't think that will be possible to police effectively
22:21:19 <elliott> well, if a reader is reading a bad article, all bets are off as far as what impression they get :)
22:21:45 <oerjan> sorry, i really meant "casual possible editor"
22:22:00 <elliott> fair enough. like i said, <elliott> i could look into adding a "W" icon to the wikipedia interwiki links
22:22:13 <oerjan> yay
22:22:15 <elliott> but otoh I don't really consider wikipedia all that "external" to us
22:22:25 <oerjan> heh
22:22:35 <elliott> for the most part, you can view esolang as Wikipedia: esoteric languages annex
22:22:46 <elliott> except more run-down :)
22:28:40 <elliott> Easy; just construct a new Google which is like based on the old Google, except that the document exists in the new Google. Then you have avoided all side effects on Google. – Kaz 23 mins ago

22:28:40 <elliott> Hi.
22:28:53 <elliott> Did you know I can't stand the jokes people make about Haskell?
22:29:16 <elliott> oerjan: How do I stop hating people?
22:30:06 <shachaf> elliott: Why did the monad cross the road?
22:30:22 <elliott> shachaf: To sequence the impurity of the container.
22:30:25 <itidus21> im not gonna say a damn thing
22:30:37 <shachaf> elliott: Do you hate yourself?
22:31:39 <itidus21> ... i will be glad for myself later
22:31:53 <shachaf> elliott: Also, that wasn't a Haskell joke. It was a category theory joke.
22:32:26 <elliott> shachaf: Yes, and tough, I ruined it.
22:32:47 <elliott> RocketJSquirrel: I'm starting to regret saying that. Can you remove it from the logs?
22:33:04 <itidus21> bites my tongue
22:33:08 <shachaf> elliott: That's not how logs work.

22:38:48 <elliott> Does that matter?
22:39:16 <Taneb> Does it make your JIT dc not compile?
22:39:32 <RocketJSquirrel> elliott: It just means you always have to specify --enable-languages=c
