08:47:30 <gamemanj> *looks at prices of static RAM chips* for some reason I don't think BytePusher will be getting an implementation in hardware for quite a while...
08:49:47 <gamemanj> doing a quick search for a dynamic RAM shows the closest thing is a VG3617801CT (2MiB)... 8 of them would be needed, and: it's a dynamic RAM anyway!
08:55:48 <zzo38> BytePusher hardware would still need some kind of adding because it is using instructions which cannot be aligned.
08:56:11 <gamemanj> It needs an increment, yes.
08:56:27 <gamemanj> And it needs... let me think...
08:57:18 <gamemanj> 3 A Address read clocks (DDR means 1.5 but let's ignore that for now), 3 B Address read clocks, 2 clocks for R/W, 3 more clocks for jump address...
08:57:50 <gamemanj> And this is assuming a simple model of "memory takes 1 clock" (which is reasonable since every cycle does a memory access)
08:58:16 <gamemanj> (well, every... ok, the point is, every single time whatever magical "do stuff" signal happens, a memory access happens)
08:58:50 <gamemanj> Oh, except every 65536 instructions, the CPU has to be disconnected from the memory bus for video and audio hardware...
09:00:02 <gamemanj> To be honest, the only nice thing about BytePusher by the look of this is that the 216-colour palette leaves room for "special signal values" when doing sprites.
09:00:24 <gamemanj> Except, of course, that's if you're writing a program, not if playing around with the idea of building hardware.
09:02:52 -!- augur has joined.
09:04:54 <gamemanj> Because then the 216-colour palette means you need memory for some sort of conversion table (division is hard)
09:05:09 * gamemanj sighs

09:06:03 -!- centrinia has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds).
09:07:32 <gamemanj> (And whatever hardware it's built with has to be capable of transferring, as a conservative estimate, 45MiB per second.)
09:12:05 <gamemanj> (At least I worked out how on earth to keep the dynamic RAM refreshing if need be. Last I read it was operated in pages, and luckily audio is a consistent set of 256 accesses sprinkled into a frame, so just make the lowest byte of an address the page, and disable output on all but 1 chip but still cause the accesses. Requires the layout of the memory to be x-chips-per-MiB, though.)
09:13:54 -!- tromp_ has joined.
09:15:58 <gamemanj> (Ah. Wikipedia explains it as being divided into rows, and all bits in a row are read at the same time. So, use chips with 256 or lower amount of "rows", and the audio cycles can handle refresh.)
09:16:18 <gamemanj> (Except that also requires that the chips are OK with being refreshed 60 times per second, no more.)
09:17:29 <gamemanj> (..."often 64 ms". Way more than enough time.)

11:59:53 <mroman> also why are window.close events still a thing

12:02:17 <FreeFull> gamemanj: Consistently inconsistent?
12:02:40 <gamemanj> FreeFull: "consistent" "cosistent"
12:02:56 <FreeFull> Ah, cosistently inconsistent
12:03:30 <FreeFull> Except that "cosistent" doesn't seem to be anything other than a misspelling =P
12:04:52 <mroman> no, it's the inversive of cosistent

12:43:45 <int-e> mroman: did you miss the point where we no longer build websites... but web applications? of course you want to display "you've modified your data, did you want to save it?" dialogs.
12:46:26 <gamemanj> int-e: Why not just move data about "live" if it's a "it must stay connected" app,
12:46:35 <gamemanj> int-e: or save the data to local storage...
12:47:09 <gamemanj> Even better, have an in-built revision control system. No need to do a diff, you have the edits being streamed in from your app's frontend...
12:47:37 <gamemanj> View <-> RCS (Storage + RCS functions) <-> Storage
12:48:41 <int-e> because it's much easier to just display a popup and then lose the data
12:49:55 <int-e> To my mind the mistake is completely captured by the term "application" in "web application". You can make improvements from that premise, but you wont end up with anything good.

13:05:20 <gamemanj> hang on, sorry, messed up there
13:05:44 <gamemanj> I like to call it Web 1.9507776867409
13:07:06 <gamemanj> (alternately, if you like to discriminate based on time but not date: math.sin((os.time() / (60 * 60 * 24)) * 6.28318) + 1 )
13:09:38 <FreeFull> gamemanj: I think you meant cos
13:09:45 <gamemanj> Nooooooo
13:09:50 <gamemanj> who knows
13:09:55 <gamemanj> does it matter?
13:10:04 <gamemanj> it's just a difference in alignment
13:10:17 <gamemanj> and I really didn't care about which values came out
13:10:46 <FreeFull> Ah, I was thinking that os.time() / (60 * 60 * 24) would give a really small value, but that must be just my tiredness
13:11:08 <gamemanj> oh, it's meant to give a really small value at the right time
13:11:17 <gamemanj> such as the epoch
13:11:33 <gamemanj> ...actually, that's it
13:11:36 <gamemanj> that's the only time
13:11:53 <gamemanj> the day after the epoch it'll be 1
13:13:27 <gamemanj> use + 2 instead of + at the end if you really think the whole universe is at least web 1.0
13:13:37 <gamemanj> (correction: instead of + 1)

16:36:55 <gamemanj> that'll have done a number on the Unicode people
16:37:06 <b_jonas> \oren\: yes, but I think some people think there should be kanji for everything, even for words that are normally always written in kana

19:02:46 <fowl> Tribbles are born pregnant and have an average litter of 10
19:03:31 <myname> so, how do you end up at 117?
19:05:03 -!- J_Arcane has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds).
19:06:56 <fizzie> For example, by having -- while the one was being passed around -- two of the wall-tribbles give birth, to litters of sizes 7 and 11, respectively.
19:07:12 -!- jaboja has joined.
19:07:48 <myname> why only two of them?

23:11:22 <hppavilion[1]> ais523|netcat: the wiki says I need grub, so I got the source from the ftp.gnu.org
23:11:25 <ais523|netcat> in a VM, I hope?
23:11:31 <hppavilion[1]> ais523|netcat: Yes, of course xD
23:11:55 <ais523|netcat> also I guess there's a case to be used for using UEFI as the bootloader nowadays rather than GRUB (for example, Linux is bootable like this)
23:11:57 <hppavilion[1]> ais523|netcat: And now I'm just following the configure/make/install process that is permanently burned into my corneas
23:13:26 -!- ais523|netcat has quit (Quit: trying out an "upgraded client").
23:14:17 -!- ais523|rlwrap has joined.
23:16:14 * hppavilion[1] hopes that he isn't doing it the stupid way
23:16:32 * hppavilion[1] waited to send that message until ais523|rlwrap (or ais523 of any variety) came back online
23:17:06 <ais523|rlwrap> I'm in the middle of a distro upgrade
23:17:31 <ais523|rlwrap> things are breaking randomly, including most of my GUI programs (surprisingly, Firefox is holding up just fine, but qwebirc isn't working on it for some reason)
23:18:30 <myname> what distro
23:18:37 <ais523|rlwrap> Ubuntu
23:18:42 <b_jonas> hppavilion: what? you don't have to build grub. just use a pre-built binary.
23:18:58 <shachaf> ais523|rlwrap: that's why you gotta nixos hth
23:19:18 <myname> people actually use nixos?
23:22:00 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: On windows? Can't find any
23:22:21 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: I'm trying to get grub-mkrescue, and "grub" was the only directory on the gnu ftp that seemed like it might have that.
23:22:41 * hppavilion[1] braces for impact
23:23:36 <b_jonas> hppavilion[1]: there are grub binaries you can write on a floppy or cd or usb drive or something, and boot from them, and install grub that way
23:23:36 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: What am I doing wrong?
23:23:42 <b_jonas> the windows thing doesn't matter
23:23:59 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: I'm using an emulator. I don't even /have/ a floppy disk drive (or a cd drive, for that matter)
23:24:14 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: And is grub the program that'll get me grub-mkrescue?
23:25:37 <b_jonas> hppavilion[1]: what? an emulator makes it EASIER to have a floppy drive these days
23:25:46 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: Um, huh?
23:25:59 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: By "floppy disk" you mean an actual floppy disk, correct? The thing made out of matter?
23:25:59 <b_jonas> I don't have a hardware floppy drive in this house (although I could buy one), but I have a floppy drive in emulated machines
23:25:59 <ais523|rlwrap> I own a USB floppy drive, and have used it on occasoin
23:26:06 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: Ah
23:26:24 <b_jonas> hppavilion[1]: but it doesn't have to be a floppy, it can be a cd or dvd or a pendrive
23:26:31 <myname> i still don't get why you need to compile anything if you want to use it in a vm
23:26:33 <b_jonas> hppavilion[1]: you just need a different image than for floppy drive
23:26:35 <hppavilion[1]> b_jonas: But you haven't answered my question.
23:27:16 <b_jonas> hppavilion[1]: for an emulated machine, you don't need an actual hardware floppy disk. to boot a hardware machine (not en emulated one), you'd use a real floppy disk or a real cd or dvd
23:27:20 <hppavilion[1]> myname: According to the os dev wiki (wiki.osdev.org), I need grub-mkrescue to boot the kernel (or maybe to make it bootable, not sure which, haven't gotten that far yet)
23:27:39 <myname> the only reason to compile grub on windows is to actually use grub for booting windows
23:27:44 <myname> which i assume you won't
23:27:46 <hppavilion[1]> myname: Yes, for "Building a bootable cdrom image"
23:27:54 <hppavilion[1]> myname: So is grub not the thing with grub-mkrescue?
23:28:00 <ais523|rlwrap> myname: GRUB doesn't boot Windows, it chain-loads it
23:28:13 <myname> grub is a thung that lets you boot oses first of all
23:28:19 <myname> ais523|rlwrap: yeah
23:28:19 <hppavilion[1]> myname: Yes, I knew that
23:28:40 <myname> but it still doesn't make any sense to build grub on windows instead of loading a binary
23:28:48 <hppavilion[1]> myname: It was the first thing that came to mind
23:29:02 <ais523|rlwrap> myname: I assume that GRUB binaries are OS-agnostic?
23:29:03 <myname> that may be because you can't linux
23:29:20 <myname> ais523|rlwrap: that's the point
23:29:38 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: sort of
23:29:52 <myname> there are os-agnostic binaries to download and he just compiles stuff on a windows machine
23:29:57 <myname> doesn't make sense
23:30:06 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: there's the grub you boot from bios or stuff, but there are also versions of grub you boot from an operating system, like one you boot from linux and one you boot from dos
23:30:44 <myname> well yeah, but then again: there are binaries for grib4dos
23:30:46 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: the latter kind are useful for installers that run under an operating system, because they're used to install the first kind of grub to your machine without having to reboot to run the first kind of grub
23:30:56 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: but if you're installing grub by hand, then I recommend the former
23:31:24 <b_jonas> (The grub running from dos is also useful because it can actually boot an operating system. The grub under linux doesn't do that.)
23:31:31 <ais523|rlwrap> what are the former and latter? I can't find it in scrollback
23:31:47 <ais523|rlwrap> (mostly because I can't easily find anything in scrollback with this client)
23:31:57 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: former is the grub you boot from bios, the latter is grub running under an operating system as a process
23:32:03 <ais523|rlwrap> I feel like Vorpal :-P
23:32:22 <ais523|rlwrap> I didn't realise that GRUB could run inside an OS
23:33:00 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: linux installers often run grub on linux
23:33:10 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: that grub can't boot anything, but it can install grub
23:33:14 <b_jonas> which is why they run it
23:33:22 <b_jonas> (well, it can usually install grub. there are ways it can go wrong.)
23:33:26 <myname> yo dawg
23:33:32 <myname> i heard you like grub
23:33:55 <ais523|rlwrap> I know that GRUB's installer can run on Linux, but normally I consider the installer to be separate from the program itself
23:34:08 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: it's basically the same program, with some parts replaced
23:34:37 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: and there's a grub running under dos which can actually boot operating systems, but that's easier because you know DOS
23:35:14 <ais523|rlwrap> well GRUB running under UEFI can boot OSes too, and that's actually a common configuration
23:35:24 <ais523|rlwrap> but UEFI is somewhere between an OS and a BIOS in terms of functionality
23:35:34 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: yep, the grub under DOS is a strange eso-beast
23:35:42 <b_jonas> I don't recommend actually using it
23:35:47 <b_jonas> to boot a linux from dos, I recommend loadlin
23:36:12 <b_jonas> either that, or just reboot from dos into bios
23:36:16 <ais523|rlwrap> strange eso-beasts are the sort of thing we love here though
23:36:25 <b_jonas> ais523|rlwrap: yes, I know
23:36:41 <ais523|rlwrap> I've been looking into EFI a bunch, been considering writing my own rEFIt-alike
23:36:47 <ais523|rlwrap> but with end to end security
23:36:51 <b_jonas> (like termbot, which runs dos in irc)
23:36:54 <ais523|rlwrap> Secure Boot is weird, though
23:37:16 <ais523|rlwrap> in particular, there's an issue under Linux atm where the recommended API for setting Secure Boot variables is capable of creating new ones
23:37:27 <ais523|rlwrap> but not changing the value of existing ones, even if you have permission to do so
23:37:42 <ais523|rlwrap> I'm hoping that the current Ubuntu upgrade will fix that
23:39:46 <fizzie> `forth hex bl a + emit
23:39:48 <HackEgo> ​*
23:39:49 <fizzie> That's allegedly a good idea, because "blat" (bl a +) is mnemonical for *.

23:40:32 <HackEgo> this is a test of what HackEgo's invisible characters look like
23:40:43 <ais523|rlwrap> huh, there weren't any
23:40:53 <myname> yes there are
23:40:55 <ais523|rlwrap> at least, that I could see
23:40:59 <b_jonas> fizzie: uh what?
23:41:04 <ais523|rlwrap> and I'm using cat -v
23:41:06 <myname> well, it's invisible
23:41:29 <ais523|rlwrap> right, but I thought cat -v didn't understand Unicode
23:41:38 <hppavilion[1]> yo kat
23:41:41 <ais523|rlwrap> in which case it wouldn't know they were meant to be invisible and thus would visify them
23:42:24 <fizzie> ais523|rlwrap: There's no invisible characters for ^[a-z].
23:42:28 <fizzie> Or some-such.
23:42:35 <fizzie> Try starting with, say, >.

23:44:08 <b_jonas> hmm, did someone mention yolo? maybe one day I should bring termbot here. only I should change its invocation character to something different.
23:44:18 <ais523|rlwrap> how does @where work?
23:44:23 <myname> so, if we build a two-step quine for lambdabot and hackego we might botspam?
23:44:27 * boily hates his latex guts. let's see how I can make that one work...
23:44:28 <ais523|rlwrap> I've got the botloop urge again
23:44:32 <b_jonas> because backtick clashes with hackego
23:44:59 <boily> b_jonas: bring in your bot for great good!
23:45:00 <fizzie> myname: lambdabot's bot-loop prevention is more robust, I think.

23:50:38 <b_jonas> as for termbot, I should add a simple wrapper script to it that compiles and runs a C program
23:50:48 <ais523|rlwrap> ;I
23:50:53 <ais523|rlwrap> I wrote an echo wrapper for a reason :-P
23:50:56 <b_jonas> as in, a program you type as an argument
23:51:22 <ais523|rlwrap> also I thought lambdabot had anti-botloop protection which caused it to temporarily part (quit?) if it thought it was in a botloop
23:51:36 <b_jonas> nah, it won't work
23:51:44 <ais523|rlwrap> b_jonas: ?
23:51:46 <b_jonas> the problme is that dos has a really short limit on command line length
