00:45:29 <lambdabot> Consider it noted.

00:59:13 <oerjan> int-e: shocking
00:59:23 <int-e> I had important game to play ;)
00:59:41 <int-e> and now I'm looking at this stupid bot
00:59:57 <oerjan> meanwhile, i haven't got any further than GG. somehow after not getting more than 6-7 hours of sleep for several days, today my body wanted 13.
01:01:52 <oerjan> int-e: i considered making it @quit yesterday instead, but i was too curious how long it would take...
01:02:44 <int-e> 3 hours... but apparently it discards messages to channels that it has left
01:03:12 <oerjan> int-e: well it seemed to get through them slowly nevertheless.
01:03:48 <ais523> int-e: it was sending despite not being in the channel
01:03:56 <ais523> I did a mode -n for a few seconds to check
01:04:03 <oerjan> oh right it did
01:04:13 <int-e> oh.
01:04:30 <oerjan> bug upon bug
01:06:18 <oerjan> int-e: otoh the last time i got many @tells at once, i was positively surprised that it _didn't_ drop any (although maybe asking for them in public was a bad move), if that's related it would be nice to keep.
01:06:57 <int-e> no, that's unrelated
01:07:21 <oerjan> because i remember it used to do so.
01:10:29 <int-e> oerjan: https://github.com/lambdabot/lambdabot/commit/d695bbf4b2d805d508107f23dbeb4382f07f9b5a ... you've been very quick to notice ;)
01:11:04 <int-e> anyway I really suspect the karma thing has been broken for several years... but it's hard to be certain.
01:11:34 <oerjan> depends when someone last tried that command... i remember it being used before...
01:11:41 <int-e> (too many indirections in the code for effective archaeology)
01:11:49 <oerjan> and it would be strange if no one did for 4 years.
01:12:30 <oerjan> int-e: is it possible that it always bypassed @more, but that there used to be a _different_ cutoff mechanism that caught it?
01:13:03 <oerjan> i.e. i think you reorganized that sort of stuff at one point
01:13:32 <shachaf> int-e: No, I linked to some logs that had @more for @karma-all in Dec 2012
01:13:54 <shachaf> http://codu.org/logs/log/_esoteric/2012-12-29#191333oerjan
01:14:11 <oerjan> (that's why i'm asking about the @tells ... if that was the sort of thing that happened, they could have been changed by the same thing.)
01:14:56 <oerjan> but i guess your github link makes that unlikely.
01:15:30 <oerjan> shachaf: 2012 _was_ several years ago hth
01:15:42 <oerjan> has really no one used the command in between?
01:15:51 <shachaf> int-e: see also http://codu.org/logs/log/_esoteric/2013-04-14
01:16:51 <oerjan> int-e: oh, note http://codu.org/logs/log/_esoteric/2012-12-29#191156lambdabot , that eventually timed out too
01:16:55 <shachaf> Hmm, but see #haskell on 2013-07-11
01:16:56 <shachaf> Timeout.
01:17:09 <oerjan> shachaf: LINK
01:17:24 <shachaf> oerjan: tunes.org took down the old logs htdnh
01:17:39 <oerjan> i think they're archived somewhere?
01:17:47 <shachaf> You can download http://tunes.org/~nef/logs/old/haskell-13.zip if you really want to.
01:18:05 <shachaf> Oh, I bet ircbrowse.net has them.
01:18:20 <shachaf> http://ircbrowse.net/browse/haskell?id=16059990&timestamp=1373543230#t1373543230 hth
01:19:00 <oerjan> yay
01:19:32 <oerjan> so the command amassed two separate flaws
01:19:57 <shachaf> I kind of want to exploit this bug while it's still around.
01:20:04 <shachaf> But the only way to do it is to annoy people.
01:20:08 <shachaf> So I guess I won't.
01:20:32 <oerjan> indeed. i noticed it also slows down lambdabot at large
01:20:49 <oerjan> so maybe we should have @quit it
01:20:52 <shachaf> slambdabot
01:21:00 <shachaf> int-e: Does lambdabot auto-restart on @quit?
01:21:12 <shachaf> Also you should add me to the admin list.
01:22:18 <oerjan> shachaf: it does unless you do it twice in quick succession
01:23:08 <oerjan> not entirely sure how quick

01:46:40 <shachaf> Interesting that it still generated the line, which is why @more cut it off after 4 lines.
01:46:43 <int-e> there it is: [ERROR] : Main: caught (and ignoring) <<timeout>>
01:46:46 <shachaf> I was wondering about that.

01:48:18 <oerjan> does @tell ignore timeouts too?

02:38:57 <zzo38> Do you like this?
02:39:11 <hppavilion[1]> Hm, the set of all sets that do not contain themselves is just the set of all sets
02:39:16 <hppavilion[1]> Because no sets contain themselves :P
02:39:22 <quintopia> uh
02:39:34 <quintopia> under what axioms?
02:39:37 <zzo38> hppavilion[1]: I think in some theories sets can contain themself
02:39:47 <hppavilion[1]> quintopia: Shhhh
02:40:07 <hppavilion[1]> quintopia: Various axioms, most importantly the "sets never contain themselves" axiom?

02:40:31 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: Just sadness
02:41:01 <hppavilion[1]> It's an attempt at humor like being bald is a hair color, like abstinence is a sex act, etc.
02:41:16 * hppavilion[1] . o O ( Did he-who-shall-be-named invent abstinence? )
02:42:27 <zzo38> It has been said that like atheist to be religion is like being bald is hair color.
02:42:54 <hppavilion[1]> zzo38: Yes, that's where I got those
02:43:15 <hppavilion[1]> It's weird to me that people reject blackboard bold as distinct from bold, and advise that normal bold be used in typeset works
02:43:55 <zzo38> Blackboard bold is more distinct anyways isn't it?
02:43:59 <hppavilion[1]> It seems like it'd be better to use BB exclusively, because it's more visually distinct from normal letters than CB (which is just "the same letter, but thicker")
02:44:03 <hppavilion[1]> zzo38: Yes, exactly
02:44:45 <zzo38> But it depend what is being written, what kind of format is appropriate for it.
02:45:52 <hppavilion[1]> At the very least, BB should be used for |Reals, |Naturals, |Zintegers, and |Qationals because that's what we all recognize
02:46:13 <shachaf> fraktur 4 ever
02:46:14 <hppavilion[1]> And maybe also |Complexes and |Primes
02:46:25 <zzo38> In those cases yes you should use the blackboard bold
02:46:30 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: Fraktur is nice too, to indicate separate things
02:46:48 <shachaf> 𝕭𝖑𝖆𝖍𝖇𝖔𝖗𝖊𝖉 𝕭𝖔𝖑𝖉
02:47:29 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: Isn't that more like Anciente ſcriptur Boulde?
02:47:43 <hppavilion[1]> zzo38: I think of BB as indicating certain "ubersets"- the big, important ones; like reals, naturals, integers, and primes
02:48:00 <zzo38> The standard Computer Modern fonts do not have blackboard bold, but does include calligraphic letters
02:48:14 <hppavilion[1]> So they should *definitely* be used for those, and for non-universal things they should be limited to the VERY important sets
02:48:17 <zzo38> So, you can add extra fonts if you want blackboard bold or fraktur fonts
02:48:37 <hppavilion[1]> Though, for the set of boolean values I like to write a T+F amalgamation :D
02:48:54 <hppavilion[1]> ("set of boolean values")
02:49:31 <hppavilion[1]> There should also be a standard symbol for irrational numbers, IMO
02:49:44 <shachaf> subobject classifers are no joke, yo
02:50:10 <hppavilion[1]> I've seen J| used, by analogy that Q is 10 from the end of the English alphabet and J is 10 after the beginning, and |Q and J| are disjoint
02:50:44 <zzo38> How are you going to write a T+F amalgamation; you can add it into a font by use of METAFONT if you like to do so, though.
02:51:05 <shachaf> R\Q is fine
02:51:19 <shachaf> fairbairn threshold, yo
02:51:46 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: ??
02:52:04 <shachaf> @google fairbairn threshold
02:52:05 <lambdabot> https://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2012-February/017548.html
02:52:07 <hppavilion[1]> zzo38: Are you asking what a T+F amalgamation looks like or how I plan to put it in a computer?
02:52:23 <zzo38> hppavilion[1]: Both
02:52:23 <shachaf> google.com is one of the ""hidden gems"" of the internet
02:53:01 <hppavilion[1]> zzo38: It looks like a T with a shorter tick on the left coming from the middle, like in the letter "F" (but with the other side of the "hat")
02:53:26 <zzo38> But, by use of METAFONT you can make fonts out of whatever shapes you want.
02:53:32 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: I didn't know whether it was a real thing, or even a pun
02:53:33 <zzo38> hppavilion[1]: Ah, OK
02:54:16 <alercah> what's a good name for a data structure which encodes proofs of correctness?
02:54:23 <alercah> like a map that does this is a ? map
02:54:51 <shachaf> elaborate twh
02:55:05 <hppavilion[1]> alercah: I do not understand. Is it like a... yeah, no idea
02:55:22 <hppavilion[1]> I was going to say "Bloom filter", but that's not what you're asking
02:55:37 <alercah> so like, a normal map provides you with guarantees like "if you insert (k, v), then (k, v) is in the map"
02:55:55 <alercah> I'm writing an interface for maps that provide proofs of such properties in Idris
02:56:09 <hppavilion[1]> alercah: You might like something like "JuryMap" ("jury" because it's proven correct)
02:56:15 <alercah> hah
02:56:39 <hppavilion[1]> "Jury" could be replaced with "Judge" depending on whether this is Japan
02:56:54 <hppavilion[1]> (In Japan, cases are decided by the judge; no jury is present. Like fascists.)
02:57:56 <hppavilion[1]> alercah: Not a joke though. That's actually pretty good; you'd have to leave a comment to say what it does, obviously, but after that people will immediately make the connection and it will be easy to remember
02:58:47 <ais523> alercah: "certified" is the usual adjective, I believe
02:58:52 <alercah> ais523: thank you
02:59:05 <ais523> i.e. a certified compiler is a compiler that's been proven to implement the language it claims to implement
02:59:21 <ais523> s/i\.e\./e.g./
02:59:28 <pikhq> hppavilion[1]: Japan recently added a system of lay judges...
02:59:44 <alercah> some European nations have judge-alone trials, no?
02:59:46 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: Oh? Haven't heard about that
02:59:48 <ais523> (need the backslashes, otherwise if the s/// is interpreted as global we'd have a compe.g.)
02:59:54 <hppavilion[1]> alercah: They're like fascists too
03:00:13 <ais523> alercah: the UK does if the stakes are sufficiently low
03:00:16 <pikhq> For severe crimes *now* in Japan, you are tried before 6 members of the lay population and 3 professional judges.
03:00:18 <alercah> ais523: here too
03:00:27 <alercah> ais523: but I think the entire system in e.g. Italy is judge-alone
03:00:30 <alercah> since it's not adversarial
03:00:37 <pikhq> To be found guilty you need to be found guilty by a majority of the judges.
03:00:52 <pikhq> (also, Japan does not have an adversarial court system)
03:01:08 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: Ah, yes, of course judge-only is OK for REALLY minor things (e.g. parking tickets)
03:01:11 <ais523> I think the reason behind adversarial is that it's hard to trust people to present the case in an unbiased way, so you ask two people to present it with opposite biases
03:01:28 <pikhq> That's the idea.
03:01:35 <alercah> uh
03:01:41 <alercah> I accidentally opened the clock in tmux
03:01:45 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: Yes, but then the moment there's a third way of looking at it...
03:01:49 <alercah> how do I quit it?
03:01:58 <shachaf> "I'll be judge, I'll be jury," Said cunning old Fury: "I'll try the whole cause, and condemn you to death."
03:02:08 <alercah> hppavilion[1]: here the right to a jury trial applies only when the maximum punishment is above 2 years
03:02:31 <alercah> shachaf: is Fury a church?
03:02:40 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: Yes, exactly
03:02:53 <hppavilion[1]> alercah: No, he's Samuel L. Jackson hth
03:02:54 <shachaf> alercah: Apparently Fury is a pooch.
03:02:57 <shachaf> I didn't know that.

03:16:12 <zzo38> ?
03:16:19 <ais523> zzo38: I'm trying to work it out
03:16:37 <ais523> my guess is that the lack of haste makes it nonviable in most formats
03:16:47 <ais523> as it can't do anything the turn you play it, and has no protection against removal
03:17:15 <ais523> also you need to play it alongside large legendary creatures, or have 6+ mana, to have any real benefit
03:17:25 <zzo38> You are correct about those things at least
03:17:30 <shachaf> that card is mega xuez
03:17:33 <ais523> that said, the tap ability is very powerful if the game goes long
03:17:49 <ais523> and it stays in play somehow
03:17:58 <ais523> I just can't figure out what sort of decks you'd be able to pull that off /against/
03:18:18 <ais523> aggro decks will win first, and most other decks will have a bunch of spot removal or counterspells
03:18:34 <ais523> (combo decks will win first, have spot removal, /and/ have counterspells)
03:18:40 <zzo38> I can change it of course if needed
03:18:46 -!- navet has joined.
03:18:47 <ais523> (and don't care much about having their permanents destroyed or being attacked by a 1/1)
03:19:32 <ais523> like, banding doesn't help much against a combo deck because they don't like to block anyway
03:19:35 <zzo38> Zeux Agem has the same converted mana cost (but different colors; should it be the same?), supertype, type, subtype, and converted mana cost as this card.
03:20:55 <ais523> well, Evil Twin is UB colours
03:21:01 <ais523> `card-by-name Evil Twin
03:21:02 <HackEgo> Evil Twin \ 2UB \ Creature -- Shapeshifter \ 0/0 \ You may have Evil Twin enter the battlefield as a copy of any creature on the battlefield except it gains "{U}{B}, {T}: Destroy target creature with the same name as this creature." \ ISD-R
03:21:42 <zzo38> Ah. OK
03:22:15 <ais523> I think banding is probably out of colour, it's nearly always white
03:22:27 <zzo38> Yes, that I believe
03:22:43 <ais523> protection from legendary is blue under what the color pie rules are stated as (however, that rule was never actually used, because Wizards stopped using protection before they ever created such a card)
03:23:00 <ais523> flying is normally blue but can also be white or black (or on very large creatures, red)
03:23:08 <zzo38> Maybe it should be the same {1WU} as the original I don't know?
03:23:09 <ais523> destroying a permanent is BG or BW
03:23:32 <ais523> although it's sometimes seen on colourless cards at a very high cost
03:28:11 <zzo38> Is 6 enough?
03:28:54 <ais523> yes, but I've only seen that when the card itself is also colourless
03:29:04 <ais523> not sure if you can do that on a coloured card or not
03:30:16 <shachaf> Are there British MTG cards that spell "color" with a u?
03:30:29 <ais523> no
03:31:00 <zzo38> I don't really care about that, because I am not WotC. But changes could still be made to what I wrote if it would help to improve it, anyways.
03:31:45 <zzo38> So, your ideas can help anyways.
03:33:20 <zzo38> What is an operation supposed to be called if f(x);f(y) and f(x+y) are going to be the same operation?
03:33:31 <shachaf> What is ;?
03:33:37 <shachaf> flip (.)?
03:33:46 <shachaf> No, that doesn't make sense.
03:33:52 <ais523> sequential composition, I guess?
03:33:53 <zzo38> No, it is like in C
03:33:56 <ais523> right
03:34:15 <zzo38> It is an impure operation
03:34:25 <ais523> zzo38: in this case, the argument to f is a repeat count, I think? I don't think it can be anything else
03:34:38 <shachaf> Well, you can make it pure by adding a state argument.
03:34:48 <shachaf> f(x, f(y, s)) = f(x+y, s)
03:34:53 <shachaf> So f is a monoid action or something.
03:34:54 <zzo38> shachaf: Yes, you can have that
03:34:57 <ais523> right, because following these defintiions, f(3) = f(1); f(1); f(1)
03:36:16 <zzo38> ais523: But depending on the operation it might not require natural numbers; they may work with any nonnegative real numbers, with any real numbers, or with any complex numbers, even. And they might do more than just to increment a counter.
03:36:53 <zzo38> (For example, if f is a function that is supposed to be called to specify that a given amount of time has passed; the amount of time might not necessarily be an integer.)
03:37:01 <shachaf> Can f be self-modifying?
03:37:12 <shachaf> I guess that doesn't matter, given that it modifies arbitrary state anyway.
03:38:01 <oerjan> . o O ( is there a UB card that makes demons fly out of your nose? )
03:38:31 <zzo38> Probably not; are you going to make a UB card with demons in your nose?
03:38:50 <zzo38> I like that idea I can add that to uncards.txt
03:40:23 <oerjan> yay
03:42:00 <oerjan> gah did i accidentally press end in the log window - now where was i...
03:42:37 <zzo38> Demons In Your Nose {UB} Instant ;; If there are any Demons in your nose, you may cast them. Each of those spells gains flying.
03:46:02 <HackEgo> [wiki] [[Esolang:Introduce yourself]] https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=50069&oldid=50066 * Oerjan * (+52) Order, I said! Or was that another page...
03:46:11 <oerjan> apparently i was editing.
03:46:53 <ais523> it's disappointing seeing so many people failing to follow the instructions
03:47:03 <ais523> but we have to draw the line between humans and spambots somewhere
03:50:14 <hppavilion[1]> I now have a 4-letter word generator
03:50:58 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: Sometimes, a human is- for the purposes of the internet- basically a spambot
03:51:37 <ais523> zzo38: I think the correct template is "Each of those cards gains flying as you cast it"
03:51:59 <ais523> not 100% sure, though, you might need to say "spells" rather than "cards"
03:53:52 <HackEgo> [wiki] [[Esolang:Introduce yourself]] https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=50070&oldid=50069 * Oerjan * (+6) This obviously needs bolding too
03:54:13 <hppavilion[1]> I have generated a list of every English 4-letter word of the form CVCC, CCVC, CVVC, CVCV, VCVC, or VCCV
03:54:33 <oerjan> someone just failed 5 times in a row at that particular point
03:54:55 <hppavilion[1]> Now to choose new curse words
03:55:02 <hppavilion[1]> And add some inflection & honorifics
03:56:03 <oerjan> ais523: eventually the whole instruction will be bold, and we can cycle back hth
03:56:26 <ais523> I was wondering about that
03:56:45 <ais523> actually I fear for the future of the Internet at the point when bots become better at CAPTCHAs than humans do
03:57:01 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: That's already happened, iirc
03:57:34 <ais523> actually, I had a vision of a company that you can pay money for accounts on, then use those accounts to sign into other services, and it's up to you whether you connect them or not
03:57:55 <ais523> the payment of money is used in lieu of a captcha, if someone's found to be spamming through an account than it can be cancelled
03:58:06 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: I'm pretty sure we have those, and they don't require money- oh, the money, I see
03:58:11 <ais523> many large websites (e.g. google, yahoo) are using cellphone numbers for the same purpose
03:58:17 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: it's when they become better than humans at following instructions we've got problems
03:58:24 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: They already are hth
03:58:26 <ais523> computers are already better than humans at following instructions
03:58:30 <oerjan> (clearly they already beat _some_ humans)
03:58:33 <hppavilion[1]> That's what computers do
03:58:35 <ais523> however, humans are better than computers at /understanding/ instructions
03:58:42 <oerjan> OKAY
03:58:50 <ais523> following them, however, is the entire purpose of a computer
03:58:56 <ais523> computers can't /not/ follow instructions, it's what they're for
03:59:06 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: Yes, exactly. Computers are the best instruction-followers, humans are the best at figuring out what the instructions *are* (and in some cases, giving them to the computer)
03:59:21 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: The cell phones are annoying for me, because I don't have a cell phone
03:59:23 <ais523> (and the normal way to attack/exclude a computer is to find a loophole in the instructions it was given)
03:59:27 <shachaf> Computers can not follow instructions, for example with hardware errors.
03:59:42 <ais523> hppavilion[1]: I don't have a cellphone but my router does
03:59:52 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: The difference in english (at least logically) between "can not" and "cannot" has always bugged me
03:59:56 <shachaf> Is there an esoteric language based on hardware errors?
04:00:05 <ais523> I don't think so
04:00:06 <shachaf> I know about https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/papers/memerr.pdf , which is pretty neat.
04:00:09 <ais523> you should call it rowhammer
04:00:15 <ais523> after the exploit
04:00:16 <hppavilion[1]> I feel like we should have "cant" as one word, rather than "can't" contracting "cannot"
04:00:32 <zzo38> I think it is a different word
04:00:34 <ais523> "cant"'s already a word, but it means something else and is pronounced differently
04:00:56 <shachaf> They write a JVM program that gets compiled into code which is very likely to violate the sandbox constraints if a single bit is flipped.
04:01:13 <shachaf> Then they heat up the computer (which is supposed to be a secure computer of some sort) until a bit is flipped.
04:01:21 <shachaf> Or something like that, I don't remembe the details.
04:02:24 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: So any bit, not just one particular bit?
04:03:39 <ais523> they're aiming for one particular bit, I think
04:06:06 <oerjan> iirc it's one particular bit in an object, but they have _many_ of those objects.
04:06:19 <oerjan> to increase the probability.
04:07:39 <oerjan> making those bits as large a fraction of memory as possible.
04:08:27 <oerjan> also when i read about it it may only have worked at memories without error correction?
04:08:32 <oerjan> *with
04:08:44 <oerjan> *s/at/with/
04:10:20 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Ah
04:10:43 -!- jeffl35 has changed nick to jeff-the-killer.
04:11:27 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: But that leads to an issue where, assuming the rest of the object code is more than a bit long, it's much more likely for an important bit to be flipped than that important one, is it not?
04:11:34 <oerjan> oh we do have a halloween topic
04:11:38 <hppavilion[1]> I mean, it COULD be an error, especially on something Googly
04:11:42 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Yes. You're welcome.
04:12:53 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: it is likely to just crash, indeed. i don't remember how clever they were about reducing that.
04:13:35 <oerjan> it may be that they actually could flip nearly any bit in that object. not sure.
04:13:53 <pikhq> shachaf: This sounds like a much less practical version of Rowhammer.
04:14:00 <oerjan> or wait
04:14:34 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: It's probably that it just only needs to work once, and you run it on a million servers so that loln makes one work and then you win
04:14:58 * oerjan should look at that pdf instead of guessing
04:16:11 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: hm the intro says the exploit has about 70% chance of working
04:16:31 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: ¡Lies!
04:16:51 <oerjan> i mean the abstract
04:16:55 <shachaf> pikhq: Well, it's older.
04:17:50 <pikhq> Sure, and probably also a bit less hardware-specific.
04:18:24 <pikhq> Something tells me that sort of bit flipping trick more has to do with the properties of DRAM in general.
04:23:25 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: it's in fact any bit of most of the objects, see page 2. the object fields are nearly all pointers, and as long as the changed pointer is anywhere within nearly any of them, they can exploit it.
04:24:42 <hppavilion[1]> Hm... S is a set where |ℕ| < |S| < |ℝ|. Provide either (a) an example of S or (b) a proof that S is impossible
04:24:47 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Wow.
04:24:58 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Ooooh, I see why
04:25:29 <oerjan> `unidecode ℕℝ
04:25:30 <HackEgo> ​[U+2115 DOUBLE-STRUCK CAPITAL N] [U+211D DOUBLE-STRUCK CAPITAL R]
04:25:59 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Naturals and Reals; I couldn't do the standard |N and |R in this context because it wouldn't parse right
04:26:07 <hppavilion[1]> (either for a computer OR a human reader)
04:26:19 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuum_hypothesis hth
04:26:26 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Oh, rihgt
04:26:32 <shachaf> you could just write N and R like everyone else instead of trying to show off hth
04:26:45 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: I wasn't trying to show off
04:26:52 <shachaf> am i being too nasty
04:26:54 <ais523> shachaf: I tried to use Unicode for labels in my CALESYTA language
04:26:55 <shachaf> probably
04:26:59 -!- shachaf has left.
04:27:02 <ais523> the interp handles it fine, unfortunately the editor doesn't
04:27:23 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: double-struck N and R is nailed into my mind; using normal N and R just looks wrong, like they shouldn't be representing something so important
04:27:44 <pikhq> I think most of us read TeX here.
04:27:57 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: Ah, yes, that works too
04:28:19 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Huh, I seem to have remembered that being that cardc = Aleph_1, which is COMPLETELY different
04:28:38 <hppavilion[1]> (...they're equivalent in some bizarre way, aren't they?)
04:28:54 <pikhq> What. N and similar set symbols aren't in normal TeX.
04:29:06 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: Yeah, because Knuth is a dick
04:29:09 <pikhq> amsfonts fixes it, at least.
04:29:20 <pikhq> $\mathbb{N}$
04:29:25 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: Yes, but only for N, Z, R, and maybe Q iirc
04:29:26 <pikhq> (gag)
04:29:40 <pikhq> PWNZIQRC.
04:29:51 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: I forget, what's W?
04:29:52 <ais523> $\left\|\mathbb{N}\right\|$
04:30:34 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: I usually just type \bb{string} to indicate what it is without actually making a whole system
04:30:35 <pikhq> hppavilion[1]: Uh, $\mathbb{N}_{>0}$
04:30:58 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: ...really? we use- oh, right, "whole"
04:31:03 <ais523> hppavilion[1]: aleph-1 = 2 to the power of the number of integers, by definition; it's also very easy to prove it's equal to the number of reals
04:31:18 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: "But N doesn't contain 0 anyway" :P
04:31:40 <ais523> (err, this is to what extent "=" is defined on infinities)
04:31:47 <hppavilion[1]> (it does. I was trying to explain countable vs. uncountable infinity to an 11 year old earlier today, and that came up. Somehow)
04:32:30 <hppavilion[1]> Really, I feel like blackboard bold shouldn't be in unicode, it should just be a font (within a typeface)
04:33:06 <hppavilion[1]> So I can have a blackboard bold ſ (long s) or ð (eth) or @ (at sign) >:D.
04:34:32 <oerjan> ais523: you recall incorrectly, what you are describing is beth-1.
04:34:50 <oerjan> (or possibly you read from a wrong source, i believe those exist)
04:34:57 <ais523> oerjan: I thought that beth-1 was the second-smallest infinity
04:35:04 <oerjan> no. the other way around.
04:35:07 <ais523> it is possible that I was taught backwards
04:35:08 <pikhq> Apparently the rationale was to permit maintaining symbol distinctions in mathematic notation in plain text.
04:35:42 <pikhq> i.e. it was viewed that the symbol variants here were *semantic*, not just style variants.
04:36:01 <pikhq> So we've got the opposite of CJK unification because of the same rules.
04:36:05 <oerjan> ais523: well after that thing i read in the logs it's good to get out of my "don't be stupid, ais523 is always right" vibe ;)
04:37:26 <ais523> yes, being educated when I'm wrong is helpful
04:38:27 <oerjan> hm although i'm wondering if they're still equivalent with AoC. it might be that there could be no cardinality strictly between |N| and |R|, without the latter being aleph-1 because R isn't well-orderable.
04:38:52 <ais523> Wikipedia says that many textbooks assume the continuum hypothesis
04:38:55 <oerjan> (aleph-1 is the second-smallest infinite _well-orderable_ cardinal, by definition)
04:39:10 <ais523> in which case aleph-1 and beth-1 are interchangeable; that'd explain the amount of misinformation going around
04:39:43 <oerjan> some might even assume the generalized CH, in which case all alephs are beths
04:41:17 <ais523> > cos 208341
04:41:18 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: anyway, if you have AoC, then every infinite cardinality is an aleph, and alephs are always well ordered so aleph-1 is the next after aleph-0=|N|
04:41:20 <lambdabot> -0.9999999999670789
04:41:20 <lambdabot>
04:41:25 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection).
04:42:15 <oerjan> and therefore there is nothing between aleph-0 and aleph-1, but something between aleph-0 and anything larger than aleph-1.
04:42:32 <hppavilion[1]> pikhq: I've also considered writing |N as NN or \NN, |R as RR or \RR, etc.
04:43:05 <hppavilion[1]> Also interesting, apparently 2^|N has the same cardinality as |R, so there's a weird bijection here somewhere that I must find
04:43:16 <ais523> oerjan: does the axiom of choice imply that infinities are well-ordered? I'm guessing not
04:43:40 <ais523> hmm, it wouldn't surprise me if there were at least countably infinitely many well-ordered infinities before they started becoming badly odered
04:43:43 <ais523> *ordered
04:48:06 <oerjan> <ais523> > cos 208341 <-- * briefly wonders if that's somehow a clue to ais523's hello world program
04:48:16 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: If you have too many well-ordered infinities in one place, it starts to smell bad hth
04:48:19 <ais523> nah, I was reading random PPCG pages again
04:48:44 <ais523> it was intended for a programming language in which "cos" was implemented as a single byte
04:49:00 <ais523> the point being that deleting any byte makes the output longer than "-1"
04:49:18 <oerjan> ais523: yes it does imply that. AoC ~ "every set can be well ordered".
04:49:48 <ais523> oerjan: oh, I didn't just mean the ability to put them in an order
04:49:50 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: hint: binary expansions
04:49:58 <ais523> I mean the ability to compare them too, i.e. put them in /sorted/ order
04:50:09 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: I had a feeling that was going to be related
04:50:20 <ais523> infinities strike me as the sort of things that are sometimes incomparable
04:50:25 <oerjan> ais523: the class of well-orderings is well ordered. you don't even need AoC for that.
04:51:05 <oerjan> s/well-orderings/ordinals/
04:51:26 <ais523> ah right
04:51:33 <ais523> I guess I should have guessed that
04:52:46 <ais523> I actually haven't been working on my hello world
04:53:02 <ais523> because of wanting to clear my mind for an upcoming NetHack tournament
04:53:20 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: you can easily get _injections_ between |R and 2^|N, both ways, just by looking at binary expansion. a bijection requires some more care, or you can use the sledgehammer of the schröder-bernstein theorem.
04:53:27 <ais523> my current thinking is that I might not be able to get the apparently simpler O(n²) version to work, so I'm going to have to go for the more complex O(n log n) version
04:54:06 <hppavilion[1]> Ah, theorems
04:54:40 <ais523> incidentally, in machine code, hello world is O(n log n) because the longer your string gets, the larger the word size of the system has to be in order to allow for all the addresses in the string
04:54:50 <ais523> meaning that you need to give a longer address to the function that does the printing
04:54:50 <hppavilion[1]> The other day, I decided to prove change-of-base in my precalc class. My teacher had apparently never proven it (or possibly even seen a proof) herself. I was sad.
04:55:11 <ais523> (independently of that, it's O(n log n) if you're storing the length of the string rather than using a null terminator)
04:55:19 <ais523> wait, no
04:55:22 <ais523> it's O(n + log n)
04:55:30 <ais523> unless you're using a loop
04:55:36 <ais523> thus just O(n)
04:55:53 <ais523> hppavilion[1]: my favourite proof that I worked out myself in a maths lesson
04:56:17 <oerjan> ais523: btw AoC is also equivalent to "all cardinalities are comparable", this follows easily from the fact that for any set, there exists an ordinal not smaller than it.
04:56:33 <ais523> was the proof that sum(1..n)² = sum(1³...n³)
04:56:57 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: I was not aware that was a thing. Oh my god please tell me it's a thing and that you didn't just mess something up
04:57:04 <ais523> I found a proof that not only proves that that's true, but explains why
04:57:20 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: Wait, don't all proofs do that?
04:57:21 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: the proof of the schröder-bernstein theorem is actually quite pretty and not that hard hth
04:57:33 <ais523> hppavilion[1]: nah, often the result comes out but you don't quite understand how you got there
04:57:53 <ais523> hppavilion[1]: imagine a times table, like a primary school times table; the value in cell (x,y) is x×y
04:58:10 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: Of course...
04:58:29 <ais523> if we assume the thing is square (they usually are), the sum of all the elements in the table is sum(1…n)²
04:58:44 <ais523> because you get the times table if you multiply the sum out
04:58:55 <hppavilion[1]> Oh, yes
04:59:13 <ais523> now consider the l-shaped rows you get if you read along the kth row and kth column until they intersect
04:59:28 <hppavilion[1]> (Writing sum(1..n) got boring at some point, so now I usually write "the sum of all integers between a and b (inclusive)" as a(+ with umlaut)b)
04:59:29 <ais523> e.g. with k=3, we have 1×3, 2×3, 3×3, 3×2, 3×1
04:59:58 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: OK...
04:59:59 <ais523> every element of the table belongs to one of those L shapes
05:00:11 <ais523> (you take the maximum of the coordinates, that's the shape it belongs to)
05:00:22 <ais523> we can rearrange this as 3×(1+2+3+2+1)
05:00:49 <ais523> and likewise, in general, the sum of the kth L shape is k×(sum(1..k..1))
05:01:15 <ais523> then if you imagine a k by k square, and pick a particular direction of diagonal
05:01:26 <ais523> then the diagonals have lengths 1 up to k then back down to 1, and each element's on exactly one diagonal
05:01:44 <ais523> thus sum(1..k..1) is k², and k×(sum(1..k..1)) is thus k³
05:02:04 <ais523> like it? :-D
05:02:20 <hppavilion[1]> ...Yes? I'll have to reread a few times xD
05:02:40 <ais523> (I'm aware other people have proved this too, but I came up with this proof by myself and think it's really pretty; I'm not sure what proofs other people used)
05:06:53 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: I prefer to do all my proofs in über-dense notation with minimal use of language, with the idea being that as long as you understand the more basic parts of notation, you understand the math
05:07:08 <hppavilion[1]> (Which is why I'm annoyed when there are phrases with no symbolic equivalent)
05:10:25 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: i think your proof aesthetic is rather the opposite of most :P
05:10:44 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: yes xD
05:11:55 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: If a computer couldn't read and verify it given adequate description of its form (which should be, at its basis, as simple as possible), it doesn't count
05:12:03 <oerjan> ais523: i vaguely recall there's an even more geometric proof of that...
05:12:27 <ais523> would be great if it involved volume somehow but I don't immediately see how it can
05:12:39 <ais523> the number of dimensions doesn't add up
05:12:47 <oerjan> it might be 4-dimensional.
05:13:31 <oerjan> build a four-dimensional pyramid with cube layers
05:13:46 <oerjan> and then there might be another way to slice it
05:15:02 <ais523> you know how you can form a rectangle from two lines at right angles to each other?
05:15:20 <oerjan> um sort of?
05:15:23 <ais523> you should be able to form a 4-dimensional hypersolid from two two-dimensional shapes at right angles to each other
05:15:35 <ais523> make those both triangles, and I think you have your proof?
05:15:37 <oerjan> yes. that's what i was thinking of, in fact.
05:15:39 <ais523> but it's hard to visualise
05:15:48 <ais523> because it has more dimensions than people are used to working with
05:16:09 <oerjan> however, you can write it as a set of 4-tuples
05:16:31 <hppavilion[1]> Hm, the jokes SMBC makes in this stretch about physicists where small values can be ignored are kind of flawed
05:16:43 <hppavilion[1]> He should really be going for... that one equation
05:16:44 <oerjan> {(x,y,z,w) | x<=y, w<=z, 1 <= x,y,w,z <= n}

05:17:56 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Same here
05:17:57 <oerjan> it's the only comic i do that with
05:18:18 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: "this stretch" happened 3 years ago, so...
05:18:26 <oerjan> oh.
05:18:30 <hppavilion[1]> Oh, this one came out 2 days before my birthday
05:18:31 <oerjan> well not that large :P
05:18:45 <oerjan> it may be a month since last time, perhaps even less.
05:18:54 <oerjan> also i haven't read it all from the start.
05:18:55 <hppavilion[1]> It's only negligible if its shaval (occasionally EML) is close to 1
05:19:11 <oerjan> which may also be unusual for me and webcomics
05:19:16 <hppavilion[1]> (well, depending on where it's used...)
05:19:57 <hppavilion[1]> Multiplicatively, shaval is used for smallness; additively, you just use |x|
05:20:09 <oerjan> did i say w<=z i meant z<=w. not that it really matters.
05:20:24 <oerjan> now to find the cubes in that.
05:21:09 <hppavilion[1]> Hm, a better equation here would be \x -> (sgn x) * (exp . abs . log . abs) x, so negative values are defined
05:21:52 <ais523> oerjan: I'm not sure how you can even distinguish the z coordinate from the w coordinate, given that a) I don't think 4D space has defined axes yet and b) even if it did, nothing specified what orientation the hyperpyramid had
05:22:56 <oerjan> ais523: well you usually choose some order :P

06:29:42 <zzo38> One part of a book I have mentions if a charged capacitor can discharge through an inductive circuit, that it decays exponentially with time, and the decay can be monotonic or oscillatory depending on if the solutions to the quadratic equation are real or complex.

13:00:27 <navet> seen*
13:00:42 <ais523> I've seen moony before, and I think I've seen navet before but I'm too tired to remember
13:00:43 <navet> So it's plausible that one of us is.
13:01:00 <moony> im not new, been around for a while
13:01:02 <moony> :p
13:01:08 <navet> Proove it.
13:01:11 <moony> not for more than 2 years tho :p
13:01:25 <moony> ask anyone in this channel who is not afk.
13:01:27 <moony> :)
13:01:35 <ais523> that said, even if navet hasn't been here before, someone who says "So it's plausible that one of us is." in that context will almost certainly fit right in

13:27:52 <moony> ^ first version of docs on my new little esolang idea
13:33:39 <moony> ais523, what do you think? :)
13:34:20 <ais523> wtf, why does my IRC client have an option to bookmark a link
13:34:24 <ais523> what does that even mean and how did I select it by mistkae
13:34:40 <moony> lol
13:34:40 <ais523> also I'll take a look but I'm too tired to give an opinion tha reuqires thought
13:35:54 <ais523> are you sure that's not uncomputable?
13:36:15 <ais523> also using ) to terminate a list that doesn't start with a ( annoys my aesthetic sense
13:37:01 <moony> ais523, this is a halting problem based language :P each cell's value is determined by whether or not the program halts
13:37:08 <ais523> moony: right
13:37:58 <moony> a 'wimp mode' of it could be where the value is whether or not the cell has halted yet, which is against the main concept of the language
13:38:03 <ais523> if the language is at least TC, then you can prepend [!1: and append )?] to it and have a program that halts if and only if the original didn't halt
13:38:15 <ais523> thus, if it's at least TC, it's uncomputable
13:38:53 -!- atrapado has joined.
13:38:55 <ais523> I think it isn't necessarily /impossible/ because like Splinter, each program can only contain finitely many program literals
13:39:29 <ais523> although, no, the fact you can store programs on the tape means you can create a program that halts if and only if it doesn't halt
13:39:39 <ais523> so the language can't actually be implemented at all, even with a halting oracle
13:40:06 <moony> True.
13:41:47 <moony> well thats a fun paradox, wonder hwy its not on wikipedia :P
13:45:05 * moony adds that little note to the document
13:45:05 <ais523> it's commonly used to disprove the existence of certain hypothetical programs
13:45:06 <moony> thanks ais523
13:45:12 <ais523> (i.e. used as the punchline for proofs by contradiction)
13:45:44 <ais523> here's a sample impossible program: !1:[?])[?]
13:46:07 <ais523> that halts if and only if it doesn't halt

14:31:08 <moony> and if you can make a AND, you can make a NAND, or a NOT, and with a NOT you can make a adder and subtracter.... etc etc, yay computer in HBL

14:33:21 <moony> well i think my little example there, in the case of a impossible to run language, is a fair bit of proof for Turing Completeness
14:33:27 <moony> FireFly, what do you think?
14:33:56 <FireFly> no idea
14:34:29 <moony> well, heres a link to the theoretical document in case you want to look at it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uUJvkuB5j6Km6CoxprBmzGzYg0Kp7h-Z13eWx5GJOwE/edit?usp=sharing
14:35:07 <Taneb> moony, not necessarily, you will also need to demonstrate you can access usefully an unbounded amount of memory
14:35:19 <moony> true
14:35:46 * moony makes quick n dirty example of accessing and writing a 1 to every cell on the positive side of the tape
14:36:09 <moony> [!0:[;])!1:[])]
14:40:19 <moony> ibut of course, thats not a useful example
14:41:02 <moony> lets assume that somehow we get a tape filled with '??0' with ? being a random value
14:42:07 <moony> [[[?!0:[;])!0:[;])!0:[;])!1:[;]][?!0:[])!1:[])]?[?!0:[;])!0:[;])!0:[;])!1:[;]][?!0:[])!1:[])]?!1:[])]!0:[;]] would preform a AND on all of those and replace the 0 after the 2 inputs with either a 1 or zero
14:51:50 <moony> people keep telling me i could do more with this concept, i just dont know WHAT to do
