17:43:27 <Vorpal> What *are* those strange oblong plastic sticker things with metal strips inside you sometimes find in products you got from a shop?
17:44:11 <olsner> Vorpal: the things that makes the beepers go beep if you don't pay
17:45:21 <Vorpal> olsner, why would I find it in something I got from cdon though???
17:45:24 <olsner> (they resonate to produce a radio pulse when activated by the exit gates - a large magnet at the register destroys parts of the circuits so it stops working)
17:45:44 <Vorpal> olsner, Also, isn't that usually larger things that sprays colors if you try to remove them iirc?
17:46:08 <Vorpal> There are *circuits* inside? Looks like 3 plain metal strips simply
17:46:14 <olsner> there are, you know, several alternative systems for theft prevention
17:46:18 <Vorpal> True
17:46:54 <Vorpal> olsner, yeah in this one it is just 3 plain metal strips
17:47:31 <olsner> there are probably other layers of the sticker that combine those strips into some sort of coil-like thing
17:48:32 <olsner> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_article_surveillance
17:48:55 <Vorpal> olsner, ah it is one of these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Acousto-magnetic-tag-cutaway.jpg

19:04:06 <kmc> "Augmented assignments are not unique to python. They are found in C, Java, Perl, Go, Ruby, JavaScript etc. One could argue that if they were so terrible, they would never have made it to so many programming languages...."
19:05:36 <Gregor> Are there people who are enormously against +=?
19:05:46 <kmc> don't know
19:06:06 <kmc> somebody said "I think augmented assignments are a terrible ideas and one of the worst features of python" but declined to follow up on that statement in any way
19:06:53 <Roujo> What's an augmented assignement? +=?
19:07:32 -!- Bike has joined.
19:07:46 <kmc> apparently
19:07:51 <kmc> was not familiar with the term before today
19:08:31 <coppro> haskell has them if you have lenses

19:13:59 <oerjan> > (both += 3) `runState` (1, 42)
19:14:01 <lambdabot> ((),(4,45))
19:14:17 <Bike> it's like you're really coding C!
19:19:17 <Koen_> is 'both' only working for a pair?
19:19:24 <Koen_> as in not for triples
19:20:23 <elliott> > (1,2,3,4) & each +~ 3
19:20:25 <lambdabot> (4,5,6,7)
19:21:13 <Koen_> it feels like you're making stuff up along the way

19:22:53 <kmc> \rainbow{lenses}
19:23:02 <kmc> also \rainbow{prisms}
19:23:19 <kmc> prisms are some kind of dual to lenses and you're required to listen to dark side of the moon when you use them
19:25:15 <shachaf> prisms are p. great imo

19:28:38 -!- augur has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds).
19:34:38 <kmc> the issue here is that you might want to overload += separately from +, for efficiency, but then you can break the equivalence a += b <=> a = a + b

19:35:56 <olsner> I wonder what "NOTE: Packets from the Internet are evenly transmitted to the wired and wireless devices." means
19:40:49 -!- augur has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer).
19:41:50 -!- augur has joined.
19:53:49 <Gregor> olsner: It simplifies routing if instead of actually giving each packet to the appropriate target, you just go round-robin.
19:55:19 <olsner> yeah, that's probably what it means

20:11:45 <Taneb> oerjan, get out while you still can

20:21:35 <kmc> that library rocks
20:21:40 <Taneb> I know!
20:22:34 <oerjan> hm i looked at it the other day and saw a comment that it generated inefficient svg.
20:23:32 <Taneb> I think the problem is that it generates SVGs inefficiently

21:11:32 <Taneb> I'm not even at uni yet!
21:14:35 <kmc> university is a fine time to experiment with anime

21:45:37 <augur> Taneb: wrong!
21:45:41 <Taneb> :O
21:45:43 <olsner> is that greater than a great-great grandparent?

23:06:42 <kmc> the Singularity Institute sold the name "Singularity" to Kurzweil because they were sick of being confused with him

23:07:29 <Bike> or uh, i don't know much about him, did he just finance that or actually engineer it
23:07:57 <elliott> kmc: uh, I think they sold it to Singularity University

23:08:12 <Bike> i refuse to believe most of these organizations exist btw
