00:01:30 <oerjan> my first version had a freestanding (a:) section but i got better 
00:02:30 <Lilax> Create their own language 
00:02:46 <Lilax> Like it doesn't have to be an alt of some other language  
00:02:52 <Lilax> But just a new one 
00:03:05 <int-e> it's easy. you take brainfuck and change the syn... *looks around* *runs* 
00:03:12 <zzo38> Lilax: There is many possible ways 
00:03:29 * oerjan throws the saucepan after int-e and hits with a *CLANG* ===\__/ 
00:03:56 <Lilax> Not taking a language and changing it 
00:04:09 <oerjan> Lilax: i think a good first step is to have _one_ really novel idea to base it around.  that's also a hard part. 
00:04:38 <Lilax> Well, Ill first need to study up 
00:05:06 <Lilax> But I guess I can make a new one -3- 
00:07:03 <Lilax> I uh.. Got really hyper and made an entire turkey dinner today 
00:07:24 <Lilax> And idk what to do with all this food 
00:10:56 <oerjan> my mom would have divided it up and stored in the freezer 
00:11:05 <oerjan> she was a practical woman 
00:13:07 <Lilax> Why would someone send this to me 
00:13:49 <int-e> was it because they were inspired by smalltalk? 
00:13:50 <oerjan> looks like weird syntax 
00:14:03 <int-e> looks like a zero-argument method with empty body. 
00:16:03 <MDude> I would think to make a language it'd help to learn how it's going to be interpreted or compiled and executed. 
00:17:00 <MDude> Or how such things are done for whatever you want to run the language you want to make.

01:29:40 <fungot> boily: dream or not, for no such amount was needed to keep a lone old man and woman took pleasure in trapping and slaying every cat which came near to their fnord for i recalled that in its experimental stage it had sputtered and purred when in action. in reply to questions hart said he though the escaping truck had headed up fnord avenue, though he knew not why. 
01:29:45 <zzo38> boily: What question? 
01:30:22 <boily> we were arguing if oya should remain oya even if she's noten during South. 
01:31:03 <boily> apparently, it's not an official ruling, and many people always dislodge oya, regardless of the current hanchan. 
01:31:13 <zzo38> Both ways are played. I prefer that during south round (and only during south round), oya always remains oya after an exhausive draw even if noten. 
01:31:38 <zzo38> However, you can decide what variant you want to play by. 
01:32:00 <boily> okay, so it's not just a club fantasy.

06:08:07 <Sgeo> Well, below throat I guess 
06:08:18 <shachaf> may the acid from your not-stomach win 
06:09:43 <Lilax> stomach acid shouldn't hurt in the esophogus

06:11:26 <Sgeo> Pizza 5 nights a week? Also, GERD diagnosis + meds that don't seem to be helping 
06:11:57 <Lilax> Greasy foods cause stomach acid production to sky rocket 
06:13:05 <Lilax> Since there isn't any feeling to pre regurgatation you probably puked a little in your sleep and swallowed it back down and now you have a peice of acidy food bit stuck in there

07:38:08 <b_jonas> zzo38: in http://zzo38computer.org/textfile/miscellaneous/magic_card/cards.txt s/at least one not having cover, /at most one not having covering, / ? 
07:41:42 <zzo38> Thank you I fixed it. (I also reworded it a bit more too in order to make it clear.) 
07:42:04 <b_jonas> zzo38: how does that interact with banding though? 
07:42:29 <zzo38> I should probably clarify that too. 
07:43:07 <zzo38> Well, it seems clear to me how it interacts with banding at least. 
07:43:42 <b_jonas> zzo38: but at this point, if you have both forming bands AND damage order AND damage distribution stuff in the ability, I don't see what it gains over banding. in fact, banding seems _simpler_. 
07:44:20 <b_jonas> so I preferred when it didn't allow you to form bands 
07:45:26 <b_jonas> I wonder if you could make a similar ability that somehow works by redirecting damage to it from another creature in combat. 
07:45:37 <b_jonas> but I'm not sure that could work well 
07:46:06 <zzo38> It doesn't allow you to form bands; it is similar but for blocking. (Bands won't do much for blocking, but here it does something. It could be changed of course, such as by redirection or whatever) 
07:51:02 <b_jonas> zzo38: if an attacking or blocking creature of an opponent assigns damage to both a creature with banding and one with covering (which may be the same creature or different ones), what are the requirements for how I have to distribute the damage to my creatures? 
07:51:05 -!- MoALTz_ has joined. 
07:51:24 <zzo38> You have to distribute all of it to one with covering. 
07:52:48 <zzo38> However, because you have banding, you can choose which one with covering if you have more than one. 
07:53:43 <b_jonas> zzo38: you should mention this in the description somewhere, because it's not clear to me. 
07:53:53 -!- MoALTz has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 
07:54:11 <b_jonas> I mean, why couldn't I just assing damage to the non-covering creatures, as the banding lets me ignore the damage order anyway? 
07:54:30 <zzo38> Yes, I should clarify that. 
07:56:04 -!- Patashu has joined. 
07:57:17 <b_jonas> zzo38: Do these blocking groups work like bands in that the "when becomes blocked by" and "when blocks" triggered abilities don't trigger/ 
07:57:35 <b_jonas> Or, um, I'm not really sure how banding works either really. 
07:57:40 -!- chaosagent has joined. 
07:57:59 <zzo38> Then you must learn. 
07:59:30 <shachaf> I'm not sure either. Must I learn? 
07:59:32 <b_jonas> Yes, probably. Though those triggers are mostly green and banding is mostly white, so it comes up only if I build a green-white deck. 
08:03:11 -!- chaosagent has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 
08:03:14 <b_jonas> About that, is it just me, or have wotc really stopped printing creatures with simple abilities that give a p/t bonus triggered when the creature is (blocking | blocking more than one creature | becomes blocked | attacking), since about 10th ed? 
08:03:46 <b_jonas> Giant Badger is such a creature fro example 
08:04:54 <b_jonas> oh, there is one in 10th Ed too, so I'm wrong: Elvish Berserker 
08:05:05 <shachaf> I thought there was at least one in RTR? 
08:06:28 <shachaf> Maybe I'm thinking of Fortress Cyclops 
08:06:41 <b_jonas> shachaf: dunno. TSP has multiple creatures with flanking, which is somewhat similar 
08:08:15 <b_jonas> ah, Fortress Cyclops, nice 
08:09:27 <shachaf> I guess Guardian of the Gateless also counts. 
08:09:39 <shachaf> Maybe it's not a "simple ability". 
08:09:59 <shachaf> I guess that's less simple too. 
08:11:32 <zzo38> As far as I can understand, the "when becomes blocked by" and "when blocks" triggered abilities will trigger, both for banding and for covering; I don't see why either would prevent it. 
08:11:57 <b_jonas> shachaf: oh, Guardian of the Gateless rewards you for multi-blocking, that's like Lairwatch Giant 
08:12:13 <b_jonas> (Rightousness doesn't count of course) 
08:13:18 <zzo38> Therefore it is possible that a card with covering might be able to block a card that it wouldn't ordinarily be able to block (as long as you have another card that can block it), just as it is possible for a card with banding to be blocked by something that wouldn't ordinarily be able to block it. 
08:14:52 <zzo38> Banding is described in rule 702.21. 
08:19:16 <zzo38> There are times when "Brainwash" is much better than "Oppressive Rays", "Arrest", or "Guard Duty". 
08:20:09 <APic> There are Times for every Action. 
08:20:11 <zzo38> Especially when putting it on your own card. 
08:20:55 -!- adu has quit (Quit: adu). 
08:22:30 <zzo38> It allows you to choose not to attack even if you would otherwise be forced to attack, and it allows you to use mana abilities while declaring attackers. Although, if you are playing blue, you might prefer War Tax (assuming you happen to get that card in your card pool). 
08:23:24 <zzo38> War Tax is good because you can use one card on both yourself and on your opponent, instead of requiring two cards. 
08:30:42 <Sgeo> "There's an increased risk of choking on refluxed stomach contents. 
08:30:43 <Sgeo> If refluxed acid is in the throat and mouth, a GERD sufferer can inhale this into their lungs. Once in the lungs, it can cause a GERD sufferer to cough and choke on this aspirated material. The acid can also cause the same damage to the lungs as it can cause when refluxed into the esophagus." 
08:30:45 <Sgeo> asdjflasfhjasklasdf 
08:35:25 <b_jonas> zzo38: if I have a creature with covering and you resolve Master Warcraft, can you make my creatures form covering groups for blocking? 
08:35:54 <Sgeo> Scared to sleep now 
08:38:43 <zzo38> The answer is the same as whether or not you are allowed to make the attackers to form banding groups. I guess so, but I don't know so I will try to look it up and/or ask elsewhere and/or whatever. 
08:39:13 <zzo38> Or maybe that isn't right. 
08:40:20 <b_jonas> yes, it might not be the same, because Master Warcraft doesn't let you choose what player or planeswalker a creature attacks 
08:40:24 <zzo38> OK so it doesn't allow you to decide bands; the active player still does that. 
08:40:59 -!- FreeFull has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 
08:41:02 <zzo38> But apparently it allows you to make all choices involved for blocking, so in that case yes you can decide covering groups. 
08:46:01 <b_jonas> I don't know how Master Warcraft even interacts with costs for attacking or blocking 
08:49:10 <b_jonas> I guess I should find out because Master Warcraft is both a cool card and has nice art 
08:49:15 <zzo38> I was also wondering about that, and other stuff about Master Warcraft. 
08:49:28 <b_jonas> however, costs for attacking or blocking aren't that common 
08:55:50 <zzo38> My guess is that for attacking at least, if it is your opponent's turn, you can choose which creatures attack but then the active player (your opponent) can decide how to pay the costs (and if they include mana, which mana abilities to use and in what order); if they do it wrong it is rolled back and you have to try again; you can choose the same attackers and they have to do it properly this time; if that is not possible you have to choose differe 
08:56:01 <zzo38> For blocking it is less clear. 
08:57:02 <zzo38> What do you think? 
08:58:59 <b_jonas> zzo38: I don't know. It's possible that Master Warcraft can force me to sac islands to attack with a Leviathan if I have two islands, but I don't thikn it can force me to activate mana abilities. 
08:59:52 <b_jonas> zzo38: on a different note, have you succeeded downloading the Khans set faq? because I tried again and the website just doesn't serve it. 
09:00:51 <shachaf> b_jonas: Didn't I send you a working link the other day? 
09:00:57 <shachaf> Maybe I misunderstood what you meant. 
09:01:03 <b_jonas> shachaf: I didn't notice the link 
09:01:18 <shachaf> http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/release-notes-2014-09-18 
09:01:30 <shachaf> The set faq is now called the release notes, you said. 
09:01:48 <b_jonas> shachaf: for Fate, it's certaonly called release notes 
09:02:08 <shachaf> Is this thing not a set faq? 
09:02:35 <b_jonas> yes, that seems to be the correct link, and I think it's the same, but it's hard to be sure 
09:03:08 <b_jonas> I really hope there isn't a separate release notes and set faq 
09:03:31 <b_jonas> (except maybe for un-sets) 
09:03:47 <shachaf> http://archive.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/faq/jou is also called "release notes" 
09:17:36 <shachaf> Does () in Haskell correspond to the Sierpiński space? 
09:18:49 <zzo38> I don't know what that is but I can try to look in Wikipedia 
09:19:33 <zzo38> I still don't know the answer. 
09:20:12 <zzo38> Also, if you can only decide what a card blocks and absolutely nothing else, then you cannot decide covering groups either. 
09:20:47 <Jafet> The FSF wants... your old car http://www.fsf.org/associate/car 
09:21:33 <b_jonas> zzo38: can't you also decide on which side of the Raging River you're trying to block? 
09:21:58 <zzo38> b_jonas: I don't know? Ask that too on other IRC 
09:22:47 <shachaf> zzo38: It's a topological space with two points 0 and 1 where only {1} is open. 
09:23:25 <zzo38> shachaf: I can see that! It doesn't tell me if () in Haskell is correspond to the Sierpiski space. 
09:24:21 <shachaf> zzo38: Well, if I give you a value x :: (), you can observe that x is () but you can't observe that x is _|_ 
09:24:38 <shachaf> And it's the same way for 1 and 0 
09:25:09 <zzo38> Ah, yes I can understand you, but I don't know a lot about topological spaces. 
09:25:48 <shachaf> I was looking at http://www.paultaylor.eu/ASD/sobsc.pdf 
09:28:07 <oerjan> shachaf: a finite partial order is also a topological space, and i think the CPO of () gives that topological space 
09:29:34 <shachaf> (and why partial rather than pre? are you talking about the alexandrov topology or something else?) 
09:30:04 <oerjan> it's the other way around, a finite topological space is a partial (pre-)order 
09:31:06 <shachaf> it's only a partial order if all the points are topologically distinguishable 
09:31:20 <oerjan> i.e. T0 separation axiom 
09:31:39 <oerjan> and if it's T1 it's fully discrete 
09:32:01 <shachaf> not a lot of wiggle room :'( 
09:32:18 <shachaf> how much do order-theory/topology concepts translate back and forth? 
09:33:11 -!- FreeFull has joined. 
09:33:13 <oerjan> hm i think monotonicity may be the same as continuity 
09:33:13 <shachaf> e.g. inf/sup, galois connection, total order 
09:33:26 <shachaf> yes, that's the idea of this isomorphism 
09:33:54 <shachaf> a monotonic function between preorders is a continuous function between their alexandrov spaces 
09:34:23 <shachaf> (and vice versa if your space is alexandrov) 
09:34:31 <shachaf> but do all these other concepts translate? 
09:35:01 <shachaf> i suspect that in a sense most of topology isn't interesting in the finite cases 
09:35:15 <shachaf> certainly things like compactness are only interesting in the infinite case 
09:35:42 -!- Tritonio has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds). 
09:37:07 <oerjan> compactness is a kind of co-discreteness (see harmonic analysis) 
09:37:23 <oerjan> and if you're both compact and discrete, you're finite 
09:37:27 <shachaf> what should i read in order to understand that statement twh 
09:38:05 <oerjan> the dual group of the integers is the unit circle 
09:38:15 <oerjan> the first discrete, the second compact 
09:38:23 <shachaf> i heard that compactness is co-overtness hth 
09:38:44 <shachaf> that was a bad use of "hth" 
09:39:18 * oerjan doesn't know about overtness 
09:39:39 <shachaf> http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/overt%20space 
09:39:53 <shachaf> i guess you're talking about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontryagin_duality ? 
09:40:36 <b_jonas> hmm, let's set up a combo to infinite mindslave this channel and take it over 
09:41:10 <shachaf> but how would you topologically describe properties like "total order" and "supremum" 
09:41:14 <b_jonas> I'll grab my Pemmin's Aura 
09:41:23 <shachaf> i guess supremum would only be only unique in a T0 space 
09:42:35 <oerjan> total order means that given any two points, one is in the closure of the other? 
09:44:24 <shachaf> i guess you run into trouble soon enough because you don't have a notion of duality in topology in general? 
09:45:21 -!- Lilax has quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity). 
09:51:37 <shachaf> what about translating things the other way 
09:51:59 <shachaf> i guess you run into trouble because finite topologies are usually boring 
09:52:15 -!- h0rsep0wer has joined. 
09:54:09 <shachaf> oerjan: anyway you have the thing where an inhabitant of (X -> S) corresponds to an open subset of X, right? 
09:54:36 <shachaf> is there a corresponding thing in haskell with (X -> ())? 
09:55:21 <oerjan> well that would be recursive subset, wouldn't it 
09:55:38 <oerjan> recursively enumerable 
09:55:47 <shachaf> recursively enumerable, sure 
09:55:58 <oerjan> hm except that might not be right if X isn't enumerable to start with 
09:57:42 -!- hjulle has joined. 
10:00:20 <elliott> finite x = length x `seq` ()? 
10:04:26 <shachaf> i guess it makes sense that monotonic functions : X -> {0,1} would correspond to upper sets in X 
10:10:24 <shachaf> hm, how many functions :: Bool -> () are there? 
10:11:24 <elliott> non-strict: 3; strict: 3^2 = 9; total: 12 
10:13:04 <oerjan> you know, i fear we may be succeeding in delaying GHC 7.10 http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9858#comment:14 
10:14:32 <shachaf> funny that the bug has been around for 6 weeks and no one noticed 
10:16:08 <elliott> | A_|_ -> B_|_ | = | B_|_ | + (| B_|_ | ^ |A|), I guess. 
10:16:19 <elliott> (A and B being flat/discrete/whatever) 
10:17:24 <elliott> wait, I was thinking Bool -> Bool 
10:17:47 <elliott> it's 6. non-strict: 2; strict: 2^2 = 4 
10:18:35 <shachaf> isn't there only one non-strict one? 
10:20:32 <int-e> oerjan: Well, it's a serious type system bug, now that SPJ is aware of it he will want to see it fixed (probably by himself but since typeable is involved it may split up into several subtasks) :) 
10:22:50 <shachaf> i only count 5 functions :: Bool -> () 
10:23:12 <elliott> non-strict: f _ = undefined; f _ = ()... oh, that first one is strict. 
10:23:26 <elliott> okay, | A_|_ -> B_|_ | = |B| + (1 + |B|)^|A| 
10:25:06 <int-e> Oh, A_|_ is A_\bot... hard to read. 
10:31:45 <shachaf> wait, so what's the topology for Bool 
10:32:03 * shachaf should probably go to sleep 
10:35:07 <shachaf> {} {⊥,F,T} {F} {T} {F,T}, i suppose 
10:53:34 <b_jonas> zzo38: ok, now try some manifest+cytoshape questions

16:50:51 <Jander> mitchs suggested that my efforts to build a Lego EV3 based Brainf*ck interpreter may go down well here :-) 
16:51:13 <vanila> so you're building it with hardware? 
16:51:41 <Jander> The program is on coloured paper tape and the I/O is done thro' an 8 bit register that is physical 
16:51:56 <b_jonas> Jander: how about the data tape? 
16:51:58 <Jander> The interpreter will be on the EV3 itself however. 
16:52:37 <Jander> 8 colours on the paper tape - red/green/black/white/yellow/brown/blue/grey = < > - + , . [ ] 
16:53:17 <Jander> To end the program there will need to be an extraneous ] however. 
16:53:37 <Jander> That is kinda met if the tape runs out as it's grey blocks behind the tape :-) 
16:53:54 <int-e> common implementer's trick 
16:54:15 <b_jonas> Jander: why paper instead of colored lego bricks? is it easier to print? 
16:54:22 <int-e> (read file, add ] at end, parse a ]-terminated block, and run) 
16:54:23 <b_jonas> Jander: and where do you store the data tape? 
16:55:42 <Jander> I don't have enough different coloured bricks :-) And I fancied building a paper tape reader. 
16:56:13 <Jander> Are URLs okay in here ? I have a pic on G+ page. 
16:56:35 <Jander> The memory is all internal, 256 bytes of 8 bit unsigned

16:58:13 <Jander> Strips of A4 paper cut to the right size. I have no tape spools in this build.

21:27:53 <Sgeo> "General Biotics is a recent startup that is producing a pill-based probiotic that may help to replenish gut flora aka the intestinal microbiome.  They intend to donate 10% of profits to effective charities.  If you are currently unhappy with your digestive system, this is a quick way to test whether your gut microbes might be the cause.  (If you don’t have a current pain point but are interested in trying general improvements, you might  
21:27:53 <Sgeo> want to wait for v2.)" 
21:32:57 <Gregor> Judging by the stream of information on it, I suspect that probiotics are 5% useful and 95% bullshit. 
21:33:03 <Gregor> I might be exaggerating their utility. 
21:34:02 <Sgeo> I don't think it's necessarily a good sign that GB was supposed to release a study on the 15th, but delayed it

21:44:40 * Sgeo hopes MealSquares aren't as wooish... although I don't think I would actually go ahead and replace all food with them 
21:47:49 <J_Arcane> scientifically speaking my understanding is that save for certain very particular situations (such as having recently been subject to prolonged antibiotic treatments), probiotics are pretty much crap, and unlikely to make the slightest difference whatsoever. 
21:49:16 <oren> This mealsquares thing looks good, although i don't see the need to put the orange juice in the square itself. Why not an oatmeal cookie-like thing with a glass of orange juice based drink on the side 
21:50:33 <J_Arcane> I just ate a lot of unpasteurized yogurt when I last had need (spent a month on antibiotic treatments for pleuresy) 
21:52:14 -!- Tritonio_ has joined. 
21:53:00 <Sgeo> J_Arcane: was on antibiotics recently :/ 
21:53:20 <Gregor> "Months ago", biologically, is not recently. 
21:53:29 <J_Arcane> I did find it took about a year or two for it to finally normalize. 
21:53:40 * pikhq too was on antibiotics recently 
21:53:50 <pikhq> By which I meant "ended regimin last week" 
21:54:31 <pikhq> Sgeo: My initial impression is that MealSquares aren't *obvious* woo at least. 
21:54:57 <J_Arcane> I still occasionally get horrifying gut cramps and other IBS fun, but it's got better over time 
21:54:59 <pikhq> And are probably loads less terrible than Soylent. 
21:55:06 <Gregor> The most woonatic thing about MealSquares is that they clearly market to nutters. 
21:55:18 <Gregor> But the fact that they MARKET to nutters doesn't mean that they're not themselves sound.

21:55:40 <Gregor> That being said, humans are the most picky of all animals when it comes to food, so MealSquares seems doomed to failure. 
21:56:20 <pikhq> J_Arcane: Ugh, yeah, had levofloxacin like a year ago and my bowels aren't normal yet. 
21:56:42 <J_Arcane> speaking as a former cook, all these weird soylent-like products horrify me. :P 
21:56:53 <Gregor> http://www.nathanedwardwilliams.com/fun/monkeydiet.htm 
21:57:14 <pikhq> (for those playing along at home, levofloxacin is one of those "hard core" antibiotics that actually has a demonstrable, absurd effect on intestinal flora) 
21:57:20 -!- Tritonio_ has changed nick to Tritonio. 
21:58:21 <Sgeo> Gregor: MealSquares sounds appealing in concept to me 
21:58:28 <Sgeo> Does this make me a nutter for hating food? 
21:58:44 <pikhq> J_Arcane: MealSquares appears to at least resemble food though, so there's at least that. 
21:58:59 <Gregor> Sgeo: The FAQ is full of "this food contains no ingredients that nutters find offensive because they're stupid" 
21:59:04 <J_Arcane> Like, I am quite certain it is possible to distill enough basic nutrients down into that form, but like ... why? At least get a good meal bar or something.  
21:59:23 <Sgeo> Hmm, I remember the opposite 
21:59:44 -!- nys has quit (Quit: quit). 
21:59:46 <pikhq> J_Arcane: Some people consider eating and food decisions a chore. 
22:00:07 <J_Arcane> Like, this: http://www.mealpack.com/ 
22:00:10 <Gregor> No gluten, no wheat, "99% lactose free" whatever that means (so, what, it's 1% pure lactose? That's a lot). 
22:00:14 <Sgeo> Real people do have peanut allergies and celiac... although they say they're not necessarily suitable 
22:00:27 * Sgeo is lactose intolerant, but they say they put lactaid in it 
22:00:32 <olsner> pikhq: eating is fun, deciding and cooking is the chore 
22:00:43 <Gregor> Real people have celiac, but 99% of people who seek out gluten-free food are dipshits. 
22:00:53 <Gregor> (The other 1% have celiac) 
22:01:21 <J_Arcane> Bear Valley bars are great, very thorough nutrition content, literally makes you feel like you've eaten a full-course meal, but still tastes something like actual food. 
22:01:58 <Sgeo> "health benefits of non-gmo soy"? 
22:02:51 * pikhq lulz at one thing here 
22:03:15 <J_Arcane> Sgeo: Well, it's still hippie shit, of course. But it's pretty good despite. 
22:03:37 <pikhq> MealSquares are being made of "whole foods". That is to say, they are trying really hard to avoid anything that's not derived from a plant or animal. 
22:03:38 <J_Arcane> (it's also a tiny company who've been around for years; I don't they ever used GMO anything to begin with) 
22:03:58 <pikhq> And strongly justifying anything they do use. 
22:04:19 <Sgeo> pikhq: better than not using something that should be used, I guess 
22:04:40 <pikhq> I especially love how they're justifying the use of iodized salt. 
22:04:42 <Gregor> So, salt is bad, MSG is fine. 
22:05:41 <Sgeo> Hmm, I understand adding salt if this is the exclusively-eaten food. Is it as necessary if it isn't? 
22:05:43 <pikhq> Though of course, MSG contrary to woo beliefs is actually utterly mundane. 
22:05:57 <pikhq> Sgeo: Probably depends on other dietary factors. 
22:06:20 <pikhq> A lot of people probably get too *much* salt. 
22:06:24 <Sgeo> "Vitamin C powder: MealSquares include over 100% of the vitamin C RDA without any added supplementation. However, vitamin C is the most chemically fragile vitamin, being degraded by exposure to heat, light, or basic mediums. To be on the safe side, we've added a little extra. We hope you’ll agree that a little extra vitamin C is a good thing." 
22:06:31 <J_Arcane> Yes. MSG is perhaps the single most overhyped ingredient of all. XD 
22:06:36 <Sgeo> Is Vitamin C overdose possible? 
22:06:38 <pikhq> But yeah, if you're eating this exclusively you *better* have salt in it. 
22:06:39 <Sgeo> I know A is possible 
22:06:57 <elliott> there are people who take astronomical doses of vitamin C 
22:07:00 <J_Arcane> bloody 50 years of ragging on poor MSG, even though it's been in 90% of processed food for at least as long as it's been identified. 
22:07:01 <Sgeo> So.. does this mean this might not be healthy if I eat it as a snack + other food as normal? 
22:07:16 <pikhq> Vitamin C overdose is possible  but hard. 
22:07:27 <J_Arcane> Sgeo: Massive bombs of Vit-C basically does nothing. You just wee out the excess.  
22:07:53 <pikhq> The major risk of too much vitamin C is indigestion and iron overdosing. 
22:07:54 <J_Arcane> Those Emergen-C tablets are almost literally pissing money down the toilet. ;) 
22:08:16 <pikhq> (vitamin C is a bit rough on the stomach, especially on an empty stomach, and vitamin C increases iron absorption) 
22:08:59 <pikhq> So yeah. If you have a little too much vitamin C it'll do basically nothing. 
22:09:21 <pikhq> J_Arcane: And it's just the salt of two nutrients. 
22:09:41 <Sgeo> I would buy these, but I need a fridge 
22:10:12 <pikhq> (sodium + glutamic acid. Sodium is, of course, utterly essential, and glutamic acid is just a non-essential amino acid that you digest perfectly fine.) 
22:10:22 <J_Arcane> pikhq: Yup. You more or less make accidental MSG every time you cook soy sauce, meat, or mushrooms.  
22:11:06 <J_Arcane> My favorite thing is that MSG is like the ultimate of 'processed food ingredient' scary, but in every health store you'll find bottles of Bragg's Liquid Aminos, which is essentially just a big bottle of the stuff in tasty brown liquid form. 
22:12:38 <pikhq> Yep, cause an amino acid concentrate from soybeans is *definitely* something worth doing. 
22:12:54 <pikhq> Rather than just, y'know, soy sauce. 
22:13:42 <Sgeo> I woonder if these taste good 
22:14:25 <pikhq> Note for what it's worth that they're not crowing about the taste. :)

22:22:51 * Sgeo wonders if he can order groceries online 
22:22:57 <Sgeo> Preferably in small quantities 
22:23:48 <oren> You can in Toronto with Grocery Gateway but it sucks 
22:24:25 <J_Arcane> I will confess that grocery shopping is not a favorite. 
22:24:47 <J_Arcane> i suffer from some kind of weird decision anxiety. 
22:24:47 <elliott> online grocery shopping is very much a thing, yes 
22:25:36 <Sgeo> elliott: as far as I can tell, these things seem to have minimum orders 
22:25:38 <J_Arcane> so sometimes a trip is easy as pie and I'm home in a flash, and sometimes I find myself wandering a store for hours while I spiral into guilt and shame and internal weeping. 
22:25:44 <Sgeo> This site seems to be $30 minimum 
22:26:09 <elliott> what are you trying to buy that you can't pad out with other stuff you'll end up needing anyway to make $30... 
22:26:09 <Sgeo> If I had a fridge, I might just buy a bunch of food or something 
22:26:19 <pikhq> I advise a fridge. 
22:27:22 <Sgeo> I haven't had pomegranates in probably over a decade, I want to try one 
22:29:47 <J_Arcane> They're tasty, but a pain in the ass.  
22:29:57 <J_Arcane> i recommend just getting some pom juice.

22:35:03 <oren> I am designing a tonal programming language 
22:35:54 <Sgeo> Work has a fridge. I could have MealSquares sent to work 
22:36:06 <oren> Tone will be indicated by varying the capitalization of the word   
22:37:07 <Sgeo> lol "Teamwork OP" 
22:37:13 <J_Arcane> unworkable idea of the day: a flavor-based programming language, which code checks based on the taste preferences of the specific compiler installation used to build it. 
22:37:16 <oren> E.g. high tone KIN low tone kin, rising tone kiN falling tone KIn

22:52:44 <pikhq> Overtone singing is *hard*. 
22:52:54 <pikhq> I've pulled it off, like, once. 
22:53:34 <J_Arcane> I learned Tuvan style from a friend, though I never practiced it much. It's really about hitting the right tone to get the nose whistling. 
22:57:14 <J_Arcane> You basically start with a low drone, and kind of work the vibration up until you hit the sweet spot and then sure enough, in comes the nose whistle. 
22:57:43 <J_Arcane> I think it helped that I had experience doing that kind of tone because the friend and I used to do an act where we did the human bagpipes.
