12:12:07 <b_jonas> I still don't understand what's with people and bitfields.
12:13:21 <b_jonas> People write all sorts of hundred file long macro packages for doing trivial operations you could do with just two &|^ bitwise ops and a shift. A lot of people try to do this for some reason. In C++ too, but also in other languages (that also have bit operations on arithmetic already trivially available). What the HECK is up with people?
12:14:15 <b_jonas> What's SO wrong with just int stuff(int flags, ...) { if (flags & 1) { ... } else { ... } } that you need deep such abstractions for it
12:15:58 <b_jonas> that eventually you can't just write stuff(0, ...); but have to write stuff(CONSTRUCT_BITFIELD(stuffmodule::stuff::argument::flags, flags = FLAGS({ stuffmodule::stuff::argument::flags::backwardsflag = (boolean)FALSE, defaults })), ...); and some similarly horrible syntax inside the function implementation
12:16:06 <b_jonas> it seems so strange

21:32:40 <Cale> shachaf: Because you take what you can get, and there are a lot of accidental ones which happen to change the direction of the arrows
21:33:32 <shachaf> Cale: There's this discussion on the categories mailing list where they talk about the joke that covariant functors should be thought of as contravariant functors on the opposite category.
21:33:41 <Cale> hahaha
21:33:48 <Cale> I don't know about that
21:33:48 <shachaf> Which is only a sort of joke?
21:34:01 <Cale> Well, you have Yoneda as well
21:34:07 <shachaf> Anyway I often see people taking two abstract categories C and D, and saying "let F be a contravariant functor from C to D"
21:34:10 <shachaf> Or something.
21:36:05 <Cale> It obviously doesn't make so much difference when the categories are perfectly abstract
21:37:40 <Cale> There are all these branches of mathematics and the direction of the arrows in their respective categories is somewhat an accident of how we managed to define the relationships we wanted to talk about using functions.
21:39:45 <* Taneb> now owns a copy of Introduction to the Theory of Numbers
21:39:51 <Taneb> Now I can finally figure out what a number is
21:46:22 <Taneb> At least in theory
21:51:12 <Cale> Or at least asymptotically
21:58:15 <shachaf> I guess presheaves are contravariant for some reason.
21:58:23 <shachaf> Is it fundamental or is it a coincidence?
21:58:47 <shachaf> "I always tell my students that since category theory reduces all of mathematics to the study of arrows, and the only mistake you can make with an arrow is to get confused about which way it's pointing, they should expect to spend many hours confused about exactly this."
