00:02:19 FreeFull: Well yeah. How else would it work? 00:02:34 FreeFull: Have any ideas for esoteric hashing functions? 00:02:47 My personal favorite is the Large Hashon Collider 00:02:55 `return 0` is its output 00:02:56 ​/home/hackbot/hackbot.hg/multibot_cmds/lib/limits: line 5: exec: return: not found 00:04:51 There's also the "Just pretend it's an int" hashing function for floats 00:06:00 hppavilion[1]: I think it'd be fun to write a C function which has a return 0; at the end, no other return statements, and yet returns something different from 0 00:07:15 FreeFull: Is that even possible? 00:07:40 I think so, if you try hard enough 00:08:05 The problem is that executable memory usually isn't writeable 00:08:09 So you'd need to do something about that 00:12:37 Are there any number systems that do /not/ include the Reflexive Property? Or the transitive property? <-- IEEE 754 HTH 00:12:48 You could also go by the route of doing something that's both undefined and sufficiently confusing to the compiler. 00:13:05 oerjan: hppavilion[1] said "number systems" hth 00:13:21 Number systems. Like the reals or complexes. 00:13:22 or wait, maybe it's still transitive. 00:13:43 which relation are you talking about? equality? 00:13:46 oerjan: "or" was boolean there 00:13:50 i'm sure IEEE 754 counts as a number system in some horrible reality. 00:13:52 well, "equality" 00:14:01 shachaf: Yes, I already talked about that on ##math 00:14:38 Reflexive Property of > 00:14:42 btw i think that "nullity" thing that went around a few years ago counts? 00:14:59 scowllity 00:15:00 For any number a, a>a 00:15:07 oerjan: nullity? 00:16:36 hppavilion[1]: it was a rather lousy attempt to define division by 0 that someone made. honestly i don't think i actually read it, but i recall it mentioned it wasn't even equal to itself. 00:16:59 oerjan: you mean it was a solution to a 1200-year-old problem 00:17:09 OKAY 00:17:16 oerjan: Would you happen to have a linky for a poor, bad-at-googling soul? 00:17:26 * oerjan points hppavilion[1] to shachaf as the expert 00:17:33 http://www.bbc.co.uk/berkshire/content/articles/2006/12/06/divide_zero_feature.shtml hth 00:17:43 hppavilion[1]: how can i have a link when i never read it that makes no sense hth 00:17:53 oerjan: Oh god 00:17:57 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Anderson_(computer_scientist)#Transreal_arithmetic 00:17:59 Caversham actually taught it in schools 00:18:04 maybe this belongs in the other #esoteric 00:18:14 oerjan: Oh, you said you /didn't/ read it 00:19:52 oerjan: Oh god, he added infinity and minus infinity (and nullity) 00:20:03 But he didn't add, for example, 2*infinity or sqrt(infinity) 00:20:06 Idiot 00:21:01 whoa whoa whoa 00:21:11 there's nothing wrong with compactifications, yo 00:21:30 for a better attempt, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_theory 00:21:44 that's not messing with equality, though. 00:21:45 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_real_number_line and stuff, man 00:23:09 Mathematics needs a symbol for "x is not necessarily equal to y, but it could be if you tried /really/ hard" 00:23:25 (e.g. x!=x in most cases, but there are a few cases where it is.) 00:25:03 Oh good, the wheel thingy is an idea already. 00:25:07 I thought it was. 00:26:40 "If your heart pacemaker divides by zero, you're dead" 00:26:52 Apparently, he's never heard of a try..except statement 00:27:02 Or, y'know, if x != 0 00:28:00 Ugh 00:28:11 They have the schoolchildren actually convinced this is mathematical fact 00:28:24 I mean, sure, math allows you to just make shit up if you feel like it 00:28:31 But teaching this is just stupid 00:40:26 -!- hppavilion[2] has joined. 00:41:47 -!- j-bot has joined. 00:43:14 -!- hppavilion[1] has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds). 00:46:16 -!- earenndil has changed nick to Elronnd. 00:59:29 -!- hppavilion[2] has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds). 01:29:31 -!- diginet has quit (Quit: diginet has quit!). 01:29:50 -!- diginet has joined. 01:30:52 <\oren\> well i mean in ieee floats, 1/0 is infinity 01:31:53 <\oren\> and -1/0 is -infinity 01:34:18 -!- diginet has quit (Client Quit). 01:34:44 <\oren\> and ieee complexes have 8 different infinities 01:35:23 and a shitload of NaN 01:54:19 -!- diginet has joined. 02:18:45 -!- andrew has joined. 02:22:24 -!- oerjan has quit (Quit: Nite). 02:25:16 -!- andrew has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 02:26:52 -!- andrew has joined. 02:29:03 -!- andrew has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 02:30:41 -!- andrew has joined. 02:41:02 -!- diginet has quit (Quit: diginet has quit!). 02:41:28 -!- diginet has joined. 02:43:00 -!- dcentral has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds). 02:44:38 Taneb: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=247365 hth 02:45:06 -!- mihow has quit (Quit: mihow). 02:47:14 -!- jaboja64 has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds). 02:52:06 -!- jaboja has joined. 02:52:18 oerjan: turns out the thing my cat ate wasn't a placenta but an amnion hth 02:52:23 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amnion 02:54:46 -!- hppavilion[2] has joined. 02:58:20 Ugh 02:58:33 This Dr. Anderson is a fucking idiot 02:58:50 According to BBC, "He has also reinvented computing..." 02:59:21 The perspex can be understood in many ways. ...and an instruction for a machine that is more powerful than the Turing machine. 02:59:50 s/(^|$)/"/ 03:00:39 Wait, no, that was The Guardian 03:01:13 The Guardian can't even work up the effort to represent 0^0 using proper exponents 03:02:05 The Guardian claims that mathematicians are different from computer scientists 03:03:14 "Anyway, we eagerly await his contribution to the knotty problem of the square root of -1." 03:03:22 OH MY GOD THE GUARDIAN IS MADE OF IDIOTS 03:05:51 Yes, that's often the case with journalism. 03:06:07 I'll have to remember that, when writing fiction, to have in-universe news articles be written poorly. 03:06:17 "Anderson has been trying to market his ideas for transreal arithmetic and "Perspex machines" to investors. He claims that his work can produce computers which run "orders of magnitude faster than today's computers".[7][12] He has also claimed that it can help solve such problems as quantum gravity,[7] the mind-body connection,[13] consciousness[13] and free will.[13]" 03:06:23 ... 03:06:27 I am going to go hang myself now 03:06:37 Better yet, I think I'll hang Anderson. 03:09:53 Dr. Anderson sounds like a cool guy and I reccomend he keep on being completely ridiculous. 03:10:04 Hahah. 03:10:13 Though Perspex sounds more like a brand of deodorant. 03:10:27 I think it is... 03:11:07 If it's such a good computer, I suggest making a server farm first and offering remote services on it. 03:12:01 That way he doens't need to worry about selling the machine itself, just its capacity to compute. 03:12:09 Mine bitcoins on it maybe. 03:14:00 Where can I find a paper that goes WAY too far with Peano Arithmetic? 03:14:09 Like, to-the-complex-numbers far? 03:14:11 MDude: Wouldn't it be better to simply factor giant numbers? 03:14:42 s/better/more fun, exciting, and valuable/ 03:15:12 I don't know that quantum computing even helps with Bitcoin. 03:15:23 Possibly, at first anyway. 03:15:45 If bitcoins are based on factoring, it will. 03:15:51 They aren't. 03:16:00 isn't it based on elliptic curves? 03:16:18 Oh, wait, there is the ECDSA signature thing. 03:16:49 popular tech media reporting on quantum computing makes me rage 03:16:51 That actually is vulnerable to quantum computers. 03:16:55 yeah 03:17:23 I was just thinking SHA-256. 03:17:29 pikhq: wait, I thought most hash functions as of yet are quantum-secure? 03:17:36 Everything is vulnerable to rock-based cellular automaton computers, given long enough 03:17:43 isn't ECDSA just an implementation detail of its protocol? 03:18:06 I'm increasingly skeptical quantum computers will ever come to fruition 03:18:08 No, ECDSA is used for wallets. 03:18:11 ahh 03:19:00 Still, I think that's one of the less interesting uses of breaking almost all crypto on the planet. 03:19:13 pikhq: no kidding 03:23:24 -!- andrew has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds). 03:37:11 I've decided to do a playthrough of the λ-calculus xD 03:39:39 diginet: Why's that?

How are you meaning? 09:10:37 {P/W}, I mean 09:10:41 Or was it {W/P}? 09:10:51 (W/P) 09:10:52 It is a Phyrexian mana symbol. 09:11:05 You can pay either one mana of that color, or you can pay 2 life. 09:12:38 It is even mentioned in the rules for Magic: the Gathering. 09:14:18 Oh, I see. 09:14:22 I forgot about that. 09:14:48 It's a bit odd that it's on all colors. Seems like a pretty black ability to me. 09:16:39 Yes I suppose so, but it is on all colors, and is still meaningful in such case too. Anyways, all colors can be in lands that damage you for activating them. 09:17:20 The oldest Phyrexian cards were black, but this was before Phyrexian mana was invented, and now you can find Phyrexian cards in all colors (including black). 09:18:06 shachaf: don't forget that the Phyrexian blight is spreading. in SOM, infect is only on black and green; in MBS and NPH, it's on all colors. 09:18:30 I never played during that block so I didn't keep track. 09:19:28 shachaf: the story of the block is that the Phyrexians attack Mirrodin, and by the end of the block, they _win_ 09:20:00 so they start to turn everything on mirrodin, artifacts and things colored by all five suns, to a twisted phyerxian counterpart 09:20:32 including Darksteel Colossus to Blightsteel Colossus 09:25:52 https://howdns.works/ 09:27:11 `/bin/ping howdns.works 09:27:12 ping: unknown host howdns.works 09:27:13 badly hth 09:27:15 well, it uses some sort of UDP and TCP thingies and servers and...

(Otherwise, you can figure out your own way to do the calculation I mentioned.) 09:50:47 (Send the result to me by private message.) 09:52:02 I have read of different kind of arguments that the universe is or is not infinite, although I have also thought of one (but am not sure about its validity). 09:52:17 -!- atslash has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep). 09:53:02 That sounds like too much work to me. 09:53:10 Why not use a typical account registration system? 09:53:15 Or not require accounts to be registered? 09:53:28 shachaf: In order to avoid spam messages 09:53:44 Have you gotten spam messages? 09:54:09 I have before, in a different webpage that did not require registration 09:54:54 Possibly though a JavaScript program can also be written to perform the calculation and then you can tell me the response of that instead; there can be more than one program to do. 09:55:45 If you are trying to move yourself forward, it takes some amount of energy; to move everything else in the universe backward by the same amount instead would require more energy, but the infinite sum might result in a finite total. 09:55:58 (Probably this is all wrong.) 09:57:10 (Actually I am sure it is, but nevertheless it is what I thought of one day) 09:59:00 shachaf: I know that b_jonas has made that calculation already, and hopefully you have the software to do too, isn't it? 09:59:13 I do, but it seems like too much trouble. 09:59:20 I haven't had a great need to comment.

20:13:48  How do I do Church Numerals in SK?
20:14:20  Or more generally, how do I simply convert between λ-calculus and SK?
20:14:57 <\oren\> i think there's an article on the wiki that says how
20:16:42 <\oren\> http://esolangs.org/wiki/S_and_K_Turing-completeness_proof
20:17:24 <\oren\> it's a proof by conversion from λ calculus to ski logic
20:19:47 <\oren\> which works by having expressions which are half λ and half ski, and applyin rules until there's noting left but ski. 
20:21:07 <\oren\> so really it's a proof that any expression composed of λ and sk, including expressions that are entirely sk, can be converted to entirely λ
20:21:16 <\oren\> or entirely sk

21:01:56  Whoo!
21:02:31  I figured out how to implement OR in combinatory logic, given the standard constructions of T and F as T=K, F=K(SKK)
21:02:49  Which is obviously not a huge achievement but it made me happy!
21:03:15  (I did have to find a combinator that did something I needed, specifically one of the form `?abc  = bca`)

21:05:41  My solcution was actually C [R True], where R is the aforementioned combinator I needed
21:06:39  And True is, of course, K (I named it True instead of T because there was a T combinator needed to implement R)
21:06:53  (One which doesn't equal True)

21:46:20  boily: I used to have HD 280 Pro's from the same company (not so small, but closed), but the headband padding started to go all bad after a scant decade.
21:48:19  And I got a pair of Sony "Pro" (it's always about pro) MDR7506 headphones for work (closed since I thought it'd be a noisier place), and they've been fine so far.
21:49:16  It says "Professional" on a sticker right there on the headphones, and the box has a schematic diagram on it, that's how you know it's a serious tool instead of a frivolous toy.
21:49:26  I got a pair of MDR-V55 at work. cheap, useful, and solid.
21:50:13  are there any products out there that are recursively professional? like proprofessional?
22:03:27  First, I'd look for something that's called professional but not considered professional enough.
22:03:44  Since then there'd be demand for an extra professional version.
22:04:38  Maybe there are people who proffesionally train professionalism.
22:05:31  I also considered having things I want made by Chinese manufacturers, but I think they might not go for just any idea.
22:06:14  Since if it's not already getting sold lucratively, then how do they know it's worth copying?
22:06:29  I haven't tried though, so maybe they'd give it a shot if it looks cool.

22:29:28  There's already a term for "professional but not quite professional": those are "prosumer" things.
22:40:49  I just thought of another one of those stupid Magic card ideas.
22:41:27  Block Out. 2U. Enchantment - Aura. Enchant spell. If enchanted spell would resolve, exile it instead.
22:41:37  ...It should have flash, too.
22:42:12  tswett: isn't that generally worse than a Cancel?
22:42:16  wait wait
22:42:17  for 2U?
22:42:21  Yeah.
22:42:21  that's undercosted
22:42:35  it can counter any spell, it's only slightly weaker than Cancel
22:42:46  it should cost the same
22:42:53  (or more, but then it's useless)
22:42:53  Yeah, you're probably right.
22:43:14  maybe add some restriction to it, then you can cost it lower. there's a lot of restricted counterspells out there.
22:44:07  Thoughtbind for example
22:44:23  you don't need severe restrictions to make it 2U
22:44:33  the counterspells for {1U} are more restricted, obviously
22:45:32  Magnet. 2UU. Enchantment - Aura. Enchant Aura enchantment. When Magnet enters the battlefield, attach enchanted enchantment to Magnet. Enchanted enchantment has "Enchant enchantment named 'Magnet'" and loses all other enchant abilities.
22:47:05  Wait, I don't think that would work as worded.
22:47:13  there's a lot of soft-counters that counter a spell unless the opponent pays some amount of generic mana, with some advantage, for 2U
22:48:26  When you play Magnet on an enchantment, that enchantment will become unable to enchant whatever it's enchanting (unless it's enchanting a Magnet) and go to the graveyard as a state-based action.

22:50:22  I think there are several problems, actually.
22:51:22 -!- atslash has quit (Quit: Leaving).
22:52:05  Magnet. 2UU. Enchantment - Aura. Enchant Aura enchantment. Enchanted enchantment has "Enchant object or player" and loses all other enchant abilities. When Magnet enters the battlefield, attach enchanted enchantment to Magnet, and that enchantment loses "Enchant object or player" and gains "Enchant enchantment named 'Magnet'".
22:52:53  And don't forget...
22:53:19  tswett: does this really need two steps of changing the ability? why wouldn't you just change the ability first, then attach. 
22:53:52  Mm... good point. Revision three.
22:53:52 -!- dcentral has joined.
22:53:53  tswett: mind you, I think even that could have problems, toying with enchant abilities is dangerous, but I don't see why you need the extra step.
22:54:04  also, drop the apostrophes
22:54:20  M:tG uses quotation marks around abilities, but not around names
22:54:25  Magnet. 2UU. Enchantment - Aura. Enchant Aura enchantment. When Magnet enters the battlefield, attach enchanted enchantment to Magnet, and that enchantment gains "Enchant enchantment named Magnet" and loses all other enchant abilities.
22:54:59  tswett: shouldn't that be in the opposite order?
22:55:07  that is, first change the ability, then attach
22:55:17  Uh, lemme see.
22:55:21 -!- atslash has joined.
22:55:34  hmm
22:55:35  actually
22:55:41  maybe they have to be simultanous
22:55:53  so maybe you do need the two steps or simultanouity
22:55:54  I dunno
22:56:03  I think you were right the first time.
22:56:05  I wouldn't dare to do something like this
22:56:07  First change the ability, then attach.
22:56:11  I mean
22:56:33  It's not possible to attach an Aura to an illegal target, but it's possible for an Aura to *be* attached to an illegal target.
22:56:45  It just dies as a state-based action.
22:57:11  tswett: I'm not sure it's possible. isn't there a "can't" somewhere, so it can't even stay attached, but dies only later/
22:58:02  But my bigger problem isn't how it stays attached. It's that the enchantment might have an ability that normally refers to an object in another zone or a player or something else, and now will try to refer to a permanent. 
22:58:05 -!- TieSoul has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer).
22:58:06  That might end badly.
22:58:49  Looks like no, there's nothing prohibiting an Aura from momentarily enchanting an illegal target.
22:59:16  The text of Animate Dead has it momentarily enchanting an illegal target.
22:59:37  If you turned the enchantment to a copy of something, so it definitely doesn't have any abilities remaining, then it would be fine, but that's usually a bit of an overkill compared to just exiling it.
22:59:40  When it enters the battlefield, it changes its own enchant ability and then changes what it's attached to.
23:00:00  Animate Dead... ouch. 
23:00:11  that's the card with the longest oracle text these days
23:00:15  or maybe not
23:00:18  but among the longest
23:00:36  maybe some double-faced planeswalkers have more text
23:00:48  Ooh boy, now I want to find the card with the longest Oracle text.
23:00:55  but yes, you're probably right
23:01:12  But still, I don't like this card even if it does usually stay attached.
