14:12:27 <nooga> lisp hackers are so annoying
14:37:12 <SimonRC> It is not designed for me to use.
14:37:24 <nooga> java is designed to be annoying
14:37:47 <SimonRC> Java is designed for the average programmer in a large group.
14:43:04 <nooga> coding java without intellisense(tm), and good IDE is impossible
14:45:00 <SimonRC> I think the Java3D api was desigend to drive me nuts.
14:45:11 <SimonRC> You can't even compose two rotations without having to give each one a name.
14:46:27 <SimonRC> You have to create the first, create a temporary rotation, set the angle and axis of each, then ask the first to multiply itself by the second.
14:47:20 <SimonRC> and of course, the methods to set the angle and axis return void, so you can't do this:
14:49:38 <SimonRC> "trans1 = new Transform3D().rotX(0.5).mul(new Trransform3D().rotY(0.2));"
14:51:25 <SimonRC> Transform3D rot = new Transform3D();
14:51:25 <SimonRC> Transform3D subRot = new Transform3D();
14:53:12 <SimonRC> Likely Haskell: rot = rotY (pu/8) .*. rotX (pu/12)
14:53:37 <SimonRC> where .*. composes transformations (like functions)
15:05:32 <nooga> hm... do you think that making function a type in sadol will help it to be functional?
15:06:14 <nooga> like :f~1+#_01 instead of ~f1+#_01
15:06:26 <nooga> and apply: )f2 {=>3}
15:11:37 <SimonRC> you will end up with a gazillion )))) in your program
15:11:51 <SimonRC> solution: take a leaf from the book of common lisp.
15:11:57 <nooga> SimonRC: eh, lisp is worse with those ()
15:13:00 <nooga> what do you mean " take a leaf from the book of common lisp."?
15:13:30 <SimonRC> Common Lisp puts functions in a seperate namespace. Not a good idea here, but the idea of functions (typically called) being separate from values (typically passed to them), is a good idea...
15:13:46 <SimonRC> so, most functions act like already.
15:14:05 <SimonRC> most variables act like variables, as already..
15:15:21 <SimonRC> but, you can make a function be parsed like a variable (being a leaf not a branch node in the parse tree) or a variable act like a function (be a branch not a leaf in the parse tree)
15:15:39 <SimonRC> could even be mad backward-compatible
15:16:28 <nooga> so application would be natural, fxy {f(x,y)} onlu if f has a type FUNCTION ?
15:17:32 <SimonRC> more of a parsing flag than a type, though
15:17:52 <SimonRC> in fact, it should *only* be a parser thing, and not relevent at runtime
15:18:42 <nooga> ha, check out my placeholder: http://stainworks.com/
15:23:31 <SimonRC> What content will it have?
15:42:18 <nooga> erm, my homepage, blog and portfolio ;]

21:06:09 <ihope> I find it cute how a short string of gibberish, like "36 F.Supp.2d 191" or "0-380-75947-0", can uniquely identify something.
21:06:39 <jix> 9DEDB891-8361-461C-9ED5-BDF0C8460EA9
21:07:03 <jix> and they are able to uniquely identify something without a centralized db
21:07:18 <ihope> What's 9DEDB891-8361-461C-9ED5-BDF0C8460EA9?
21:07:32 <jix> thats an uuid

21:08:50 <jix> i don't know
21:08:57 <jix> you could check the version bits

21:10:02 <ihope> Yeah, I can't read Dutch. ;-)
21:11:05 <ihope> So Dutch is NL. How logical.
21:11:15 <ihope> Spanish is ES, German is DE...
21:11:26 <jix> well german in german is deutsch
21:11:39 <jix> spanish in spanish is españ....
21:11:58 * jix doesn't speak spanish
21:12:09 <jix> and no i'm using version 4
21:12:30 <ihope> The random version?
21:14:04 <ihope> So can you tell me what 0-380-75947-0 is?
21:15:31 <jix> something us specific?
21:15:52 <jix> telephone number?
21:16:16 <jix> random number?
21:16:25 <jix> wait some bar-code
21:16:53 <jix> maybe it's a phone number too ;)
21:17:51 <jix> what is this? "36 F.Supp.2d 191"
21:18:19 <ihope> Try a Google search.

22:43:18 <fuse> ihope: it's a book on scheme; it's laid out as a children's book and it has all these cute drawings of elephants
22:44:41 <fuse> ihope: and it still manages to present some pretty deep cs concepts; for instance, it presents turing's argument for the indecidability of the halting problem with little scheme programs
22:45:02 <fuse> ihope: yeah it's great

22:49:12 <ihope> What would happen if I threw that in with all the other children's books at some library?
22:50:41 <fuse> if we were born in the right universe, it /would/ be a children's book; unfortunately we were born in the alternate universe in that star trek episode where everyone's evil and spock has a goatee
22:54:44 <fuse> ihope: the book has a page that says, "This space reserved for JELLY STAINS!"
22:55:42 <Arrogant> fuse, without spock having a goatee we wouldn't have the band spock's beard
