00:07:42 <tswett> I scoured the TCP & UDP section to make sure it didn't contain "I'd tell you a UDP joke, but you might not get it."
00:08:04 <tswett> That joke is incorrect. It implies that TCP guarantees delivery. This is not the case.
00:08:51 <shachaf> That joke is not incorrect.
00:10:01 <ais523> does TCP guarantee that if the recipient doesn't get a packet, they won't get any subsequent packets either?
00:10:07 <zzo38> Doesn't seem to imply that from the joke?
00:10:22 <zzo38> It says nothing about TCP anyways
00:10:30 <tswett> ais523: pretty sure, yeah.
00:11:26 <tswett> What's the nice thing about a UDP joke? If you don't get it, you don't have to hear it again and again until you do.

01:46:14 <oerjan> <ais523> could we exploit this to delete the canary <-- oh you had the same idea :P
01:57:49 <oren> you know your macros have gone too far when you start needing to use a macro like
01:58:12 <oren> #define ap(a,b...) a(b)
01:58:16 <oren> #define ap2(a,b...) a(b)
01:58:18 <oren> #define ap3(a,b...) a(b)
01:59:51 <zzo38> Sometimes you would want to define macro in two difference ways to parse include files in many different ways.
02:00:24 <ais523> oren: that's GNU syntax right?
02:00:31 <ais523> and I assume you have to use multiple different macros so that you can nest them?
02:01:14 <ais523> hmm, can you use macro expansion to produce the line number part of #line directives?
02:01:24 <ais523> if so, you could probably include the same file multiple times with different line numbers
02:01:41 <ais523> and then use token pasting and recursive includes to create different macro variants
02:01:49 <ais523> except that the left half of a #define can't be macro-expanded, meh
02:04:20 <oren> I think there's an option to gcc to run the preprocessor twice?
02:05:19 <ais523> still wouldn't work, I think
02:05:41 <ais523> if gcc had an option to run the preprocessor repeatedly until it reached a fixed point, on the other hand…
02:06:37 <pikhq> Yeah, that's been demonstrated.
02:06:53 <zzo38> Or if you can allowed to make _CPP("x(%d)",42) to allow it to execute preprocessor again a second time and expand x(42) into its place instead.
02:07:01 <pikhq> Someone actually submitted to IOCCC something that was TC in such an environment IIRC.
02:09:02 <pikhq> Ah yes, http://www.ioccc.org/2001/herrmann1.hint

02:45:27 <Wallacoloo> Are there any esoteric instruction sets out there in which the instruction length is 1-bit?
02:46:00 <constant> Wallacoloo: there is http://esolangs.org/wiki/TOD (language, not ISA) but there are also 1-bit instruction length arches
02:47:52 <ais523> there's also the various 1L variants
02:48:06 <ais523> although those are two-dimensional
02:48:25 <Wallacoloo> I'm pretty new here, ais523: what's 1L?
02:48:28 <ais523> and the turning tarpits
02:48:31 <ais523> TOD is basiaclly one of those
02:48:35 <ais523> http://esolangs.org/wiki/1L
02:53:51 <Wallacoloo> So the idea that most intrigues me is something like bit-bit-jump, in which the underlying system doesn't really need to implement any logic functions (i.e. no ALU, no counters like a PC), but reduced to a 1-bit instruction length. I've been trying to think of ways to achieve that, but to no avail yet.
02:55:02 <ais523> hmm, this reminds me of http://esolangs.org/wiki/MiniMAX but that doesn't scale down to one bit
02:59:18 <Wallacoloo> ais523: Similar, although that one requires the interpreter / circuitry to implement an adder (for the relative jumps).
02:59:57 <ais523> the idea behind minimax is that all the operations it needs happen to be single x86 instructions

04:11:38 <ais523> (you can figure out where the closing ones are by context)
04:11:48 <ais523> so it's a tree structure rather than a linear program
04:11:51 <ais523> Wallacoloo: http://esolangs.org/wiki/Jot
04:12:29 <quintopia> ais523: but an opening parenthesis is an operator. push to stack or w/e.

08:03:52 <mroman_> I hope the "legacy tax" passes this weekend.
08:05:37 <mroman_> I like how they say that it's a "family unfriendly"-tax
08:07:03 <mroman_> Because I doubt most families have enough to bequeath for the legacy tax being applied to it.
08:07:22 <mroman_> Since it is only applied for >2. Mio.
08:11:35 <mroman_> except that it is retroactive (?). That's not really a nice thing to do.
08:12:57 <oren> mroman: the rich families can hide their money in a foriegn bank, can't they?
08:13:17 <mroman_> but the new "legacy tax" would actually be less than what most Cantons have
08:13:28 <mroman_> most cantons have around 25% to 30% legacy tax
08:13:40 <mroman_> whereas the new state wide legacy tax would only be 20%
08:13:53 <mroman_> (which is why most Cantons don't really want that because it means they'll loose money)
08:14:01 <mroman_> so rich people generally profit from this.
08:14:15 <oren> I think taxing the rich usually doesn't do much good because the rich are so mobile
08:14:44 <mroman_> Well, if you're rich then this new tax shouldn't bother you
08:14:51 <mroman_> because the new tax will be less
08:15:13 <oren> I meant in general
08:16:44 <mroman_> The super rich ones are certainly very mobile, yes.
08:20:58 <mroman_> most cantons don't have a legacy tax for passing it on to direct children
08:21:56 <mroman_> with the new tax you can pass on 4 Mio. to your children tax-free.
08:22:41 <mroman_> oren: I think the general argument is that since everybody has to pay tax on what he earns peolpe who "earn" money by inherting it should do the same
08:24:07 <mroman_> oren: not only the rich ones. You could hide money as well.
08:24:51 <mroman_> but wealth tax is so low that somebody with just a little money doesn't really have enough incentive to do that.

08:51:18 <mroman_> For example if it's an underlying personality disorder or a general anxiety disorder

09:02:31 <oren> or wait what order do the number go in?
09:03:13 <mroman_> is the world-wide prevalence of cataract
09:03:50 <mroman_> the most common listed disability in that list is hearing loss
09:04:03 <mroman_> mostly because old people tend to get hearing loss
09:04:44 <mroman_> compared to 125 Mio. people with alcohol abuse
09:04:56 <mroman_> or >1000 Mio. with iron-deficiency
09:05:46 <oren> one of my friends has abnormally sensitive hearing. I wear earbuds and listen to music, and he can listen to it and pick out the lyrics. He can't stand anywhere near a speaker playing music even at normal volume
09:05:53 <zzo38> I made up character page of level20.tex in All The Tropes by now, but isn't very good so far, I think
09:06:05 <mroman_> unsurprisingly diarrhoea is really, really common :)
09:06:23 <oren> Well yeah, a lot of people get it from milk
09:06:34 <zzo38> Do you know how to make up any Magic: the Puzzling too?
09:07:00 <mroman_> oren: although most people have abnormally insensitive hearing
09:07:12 <mroman_> when I watch TV and somebody else joins they usually double the volume
09:07:31 <mroman_> I blame too loud music in clubs.
09:07:33 <zzo38> If you make up Magic: the Puzzling and make it into a book, I will buy it. If Wizards of the Coast were to make such book I would buy them too.
09:07:34 <oren> abnormally sensitive hearing probably counts as a disability
09:07:38 <mroman_> (And I don't go the clubs obviously)
09:08:11 <oren> my friend can't stand being in front of a club let alone enter it
09:08:16 <mroman_> because it's really distressing and annoying.
09:08:37 <mroman_> You're friend probably couldn't sleep where I do :)
09:09:10 <mroman_> lots of traffic and an old house with not very sound proof walls and not very sound proof windows
09:09:29 <mroman_> you can sleep with the windows open
09:09:37 <mroman_> because closing them doesn't do shit to the noise

09:11:09 <mroman_> also there's an outdoor pool very near
09:11:21 <mroman_> so you can always hear the kids there
09:11:36 <mroman_> (public outdoor bath. I don't know what you guys call that)
09:12:02 <mroman_> in summer you can hear them all day long screaming :)
09:12:09 <oren> swimming pool?
09:13:06 <mroman_> there's also a soccer field nearby
09:13:14 <mroman_> so you can hear the fans screaming when a match is on :)
09:13:35 <oren> There are cafe
09:13:37 <mroman_> outdoor swimming pool is within 5min walking distance, soccer field also within 5min walking distance
09:13:53 <mroman_> ice rink within 5min walking distance
09:14:00 <mroman_> shopping centre within 5min walking distance :)
09:14:30 <mroman_> pretty much everything you need is within 5min walking distance
09:14:35 <oren> I live in a very loud neighbourhood (lots of clubs) but my house was built with thick walls and double glass windows
09:15:20 <oren> I guess it's only loud at night, really.
09:16:41 <oren> The loudest thing is, you can always hear some tiny dick moron revving a motorcycle.
09:17:38 <mroman_> also there's a bouldering hall within 5min
09:17:39 <oren> they take the dampers off to make it louder
09:17:46 <mroman_> but that one costs 25k a year
09:18:41 <mroman_> oren: yeah or guys driving 50km/h in first gear just so the motor is howling
09:33:30 <mroman_> Hm. There's going to be a talk about "Augmented Reflection Technology for Upper Limb Stroke Rehabilitation" at my university

10:09:30 <mroman_> I hate it when websites like slashdot push my CPU to 100% because of some stupid flash ads
10:10:00 <ais523> mroman_: use a plugin that disables Flash until you interact with it (typically clicking)?
10:10:10 <ais523> that feature even comes standard with some browsers nowadays
10:10:22 <ais523> and doesn't impact your ability to use Flash for its legitimate uses, it's just one more click
10:11:34 <Jafet> The solution is even simpler if you don't believe that flash has legitimate uses

15:54:49 <Taneb> newtype Nat = Nat [Nat]
15:56:17 <Taneb> (where all lists are finite and have finite depth)
15:57:35 <Taneb> It is isomorphic to the natural numebrs
15:57:49 <Taneb> Or rather, it is a representation of the natural numbers
15:58:18 <shachaf> Isomorphic in that it's an infinite countable set?
15:58:43 <Taneb> You know you can represent the naturals as bitstrings?
15:58:59 <Taneb> I'm using it as sparse bitstrings
15:59:48 <Taneb> 9 in binary is 1001
16:00:24 <Taneb> I then encode it as "Move right 0 times, write a 1, move right 2 times, write a 1", or [0,2]
16:00:33 <Taneb> Where the elements of that list are in turn natural numbers
