00:00:49 <oerjan> zzo38: my hunch is that Memfractal is turing complete, although i'm not entirely sure if four exits is enough or not
00:01:39 <zzo38> oerjan: If not, could having multiple blocks help?
00:01:42 <oerjan> zzo38: i assume all bits start as 0?
00:02:04 <zzo38> oerjan: Yes all bits start as 0 (unless initial state says otherwise) (probably it should be mentioned)
00:02:19 <oerjan> what do you mean by multiple blocks?
00:02:23 <zzo38> (Initial state includes input state)
00:02:47 -!- Wamanuz3 has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds).
00:02:48 <oerjan> zzo38: ok so some of the bits might be set dependent on input?
00:03:07 <zzo38> oerjan: By multiple blocks, I mean that instead of one block, you have two rectangles which are two blocks and possibly have some new command to select one.
00:03:31 <zzo38> oerjan: Yes some bits might be set on input. But if you are using with no input, it is all 0 at the start.
00:03:37 <oerjan> zzo38: so + would select one of them and some other command the other?
00:04:06 <zzo38> oerjan: Yes maybe + selects one and some other command select the other.
00:04:21 <oerjan> it might not be necessary though
00:04:35 <zzo38> Yes I was thinking too, I don't know if it is necessary or not.

00:05:48 <Vorpal> not sure how though, but BCT is probably a good target

00:55:03 <elliott> The single good thing about autotools is that it stops people too stupid to exist from creating their own systems.

01:03:26 <elliott> it should be noted, for instance, that easy_install comes without an easy_uninstall.
01:03:35 <elliott> in fact, installation requires manually editing a generated file, and removing a directory.

01:22:07 <Vorpal> elliott, I think GCC will hate you at least
01:22:30 <elliott> Vorpal: ghc hates anyone who even _looks_ at its build system. even it knows that it's the worst ever.
01:22:40 <elliott> I don't know how GCC devs even cope.
01:22:55 <Vorpal> elliott, I meant the gcc build system
01:22:57 <elliott> a million-line shell script that always recompiles the entire source tree would be faster and easier to use
01:23:41 <olsner> gcc's build system is saner than ghc's IMO
01:24:17 <olsner> but it has some slightly silly requirements, like only working for out-of-source builds
01:24:25 <elliott> olsner: GHC's got completely modernised lately, dude
01:24:33 <elliott> ./configure && make && make install is now perfectly sane
01:24:41 <elliott> it /used/ to be a right mess
01:24:49 <elliott> olsner: if you're referring to the ghc dependency, well ... not much you can do about that
01:24:56 <olsner> sure, but I think it's not completely modernised, and not sufficiently modern :P

01:42:39 * elliott looks at the arch build scripts for this
01:44:10 <Sgeo> No, a Linux distro heavily reliant on PSOX would ... *gets shot by elliott*
01:44:51 <Vorpal> Ilari, that went completely over my head (or maybe on the side of it)
01:45:09 <cheater99> i guess you can implement a microprocessor in it, upon which you can implement a turing complete assembler
01:45:26 <cheater99> so it should be turing complete, right?
01:45:38 <Vorpal> cheater99, no actual hardware can be TC.
01:45:56 <elliott> cheater99: verilog is sub-TC.
01:45:56 <Vorpal> I'm pretty sure neither verilog nor vhdl are actually TC.
01:46:10 <elliott> as ais523 can explain but i wouldn't recommend him to due to it being a waste of time due to the target.
01:46:45 <cheater99> the target of this conversation being you showing off that you're a prissy brat?

01:47:03 -!- poiuy_qwert has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer).
01:47:19 <ais523> elliott: it probably is TC via the not-for-synthesis features
01:47:23 <Vorpal> elliott, the PKGBUILD seems to be manual install commands?
01:47:26 <ais523> unless it's incapable of dynamic allocation, which wouldn't surprise me
01:47:38 <elliott> ais523: I'm pretty sure it is, isn't it?
01:47:39 <ais523> but the "because it can be used to make a microprocessor" is bogus reasoning as microprocessors aren't TC
01:47:44 <Vorpal> <cheater99> the target of this conversation being you showing off that you're a prissy brat? <-- not brat no
01:47:48 <elliott> I don't think VHDL is capable of dynamic allocation is it?
01:48:02 <ais523> elliott: I'm not too sure about its not-for-synthesis features
01:48:02 <Vorpal> (seriously, and I never thought I'd say this, do try to get along the two of you)
01:48:05 <elliott> Vorpal: cheater doesn't like me because i call him a troll when he trolls.

01:48:16 <ais523> it wouldn't surprise me if you could make arbitrary length strings, for instance
01:48:21 <elliott> sometimes i think the lack of moderation in here is a bad thing :)
01:48:27 <ais523> cheater99: no they can't, because they wouldn't be able to access infinite storage
01:48:38 -!- poiuy_qwert has joined.
01:48:45 <elliott> ITT: cheater99 doesn't know what Turing complete means
01:48:47 <ais523> you can run a BF interp on a processor, but it would eventually run out of memory if you kept extending the tape
01:49:20 <cheater99> ais523: but no concrete implementation of a language has access to infinite storage
01:49:48 <cheater99> so that would mean you imply no language is TC
01:49:58 <ais523> no concrete implementation is TC, indeed
01:50:09 <ais523> being TC is a property of languages in theory, not in practice
01:50:35 <cheater99> but in theory for every program that needs to be executed a microcontroller with enough storage could be programmed in verilog
01:50:38 <ais523> you can also talk about bounded-storage machines, which are ill-defined, but effectively "machines that would be TC except for the possibility of running out of memory"
01:50:50 <elliott> autoconf question: If I have an X system, and want to build a compiler as an X executable, that outputs X executables, _but_ it's bootstrapping from a Y compiler
01:50:52 <ais523> cheater99: yep, verilog counts as a bounded-storage machine for that reason
01:50:54 <elliott> what's BUILD, HOST, TARGET?
01:51:02 <elliott> X=64-bit and Y=32-bit in this case
01:51:07 <ais523> build = Y, host = X, target = X
01:51:12 <Vorpal> elliott, uh. that is a canadian cross
01:51:24 <ais523> canadian cross requires three systems
01:51:25 <olsner> BUILD is where you build it, HOST is where you run it, TARGET is what it builds when run
01:51:28 <Vorpal> it is just cross compiling a native compiler
01:51:30 <elliott> Vorpal: I have a 64-bit system, and want a 64-bit compiler; I just happen to have a 32-bit compiler to build it with
01:51:43 <cheater99> ais523: but the memory doesn't need to be bounded. when you're executing and run out of memory, freeze the turing machine just before the allocation fails, and transplant it onto a bigger host.
01:51:58 <ais523> cheater99: then doing that would be part of the impl itself
01:51:59 <Vorpal> ais523, well, no. 2 does it. on X build a compiler that will run on Y and will target X
01:52:06 <Vorpal> ais523, as far as I know that is a canadian cross too
01:52:12 <cheater99> ais523: you can certainly implement that in verilog.
01:52:14 <ais523> and I don't think you can have a /concrete/ impl that does that
01:52:17 <ais523> Vorpal: that's a crossback
01:52:46 <olsner> Vorpal: I think canadian cross is only when you build a cross-compiler using a cross-compiler, in this case he's just cross-compiling a normal compiler
01:53:05 <ais523> "cross-compiling a compiler" is the best description
01:53:11 <ais523> it's more or less the same as cross-compiling anything else
01:53:40 <elliott> btw, canadian cross has the worst etymology ever
01:53:46 <ais523> I've done the YXX combination with C-INTERCAL before, in order to test it (where Y = x86-32, X = ARM, as I happened to have an x86 to ARM crosscompiler handy)
01:53:51 <ais523> elliott: it's a reference to the canadian political system
01:53:55 <elliott> at the time, canada had three main political parties
01:53:55 <ais523> according to the gcc manual
01:54:01 <elliott> there are three architectures involved
01:54:05 <elliott> I mean ... that is so stupid
01:54:22 <Vorpal> ais523, I thought it was a reference to the red cross?
01:54:23 <elliott> why not call it a mΓ©nage Γ compiler?
01:54:25 <elliott> that makes about as much sense
01:54:27 <ais523> elliott: to me it fits in the "this is vaguely similar, let's call one after the other" strategy
01:55:05 <Vorpal> red cross would work. You need band aid after doing a canadian cross
01:55:06 <elliott> ais523: MΓ©nage Γ compiler!
01:55:10 <cheater99> ais523: have you read "cryptonomicon"?
01:55:12 <olsner> shouldn't that be compiler Γ trois? or was it flipped intentionally?
01:55:22 <cheater99> ais523: it's a book that features a fictional version of alan turing.
01:55:29 <elliott> olsner: it's the Bad Etymology game
01:55:33 <elliott> of course it shouldn't make more sense
01:55:39 <elliott> ais523: Have you read "SICP"?
01:55:46 <elliott> ais523: It's a book that features a real version of Sussman.
01:55:51 <ais523> I've never come across a copy, and it would take a while
01:57:03 <elliott> olsner: Technically it should be [b]The Sussman[/b] but IRC doesn't support the requisite International Standard for BBCode.
01:57:08 * oerjan wonders if anyone has ever tried to name their child "The"
01:58:26 <olsner> elliott: but what's The Sussman?
01:58:40 <Vorpal> elliott, did you use -pipe, to save on the SSD?
01:58:44 <Vorpal> elliott, (for gcc that is)
01:58:49 <elliott> olsner: The Sussman is the man otherwise known as ``Gerald Jay Sussman''.
01:59:01 <elliott> Vorpal: No. It'll only compile the runtime system with gcc anyway, the rest is all GHC.
01:59:07 <elliott> Vorpal: Besides, SSDs are smart.
01:59:08 <ais523> elliott: why use BBcode when you can do this?
01:59:17 <olsner> elliott: oh, I see what you mean
01:59:24 <zzo38> YOu can use CTRL+B for emphasis in IRC, some clients will accept it, some won't because it is not part of the main RFC for IRC.
01:59:25 <ais523> elliott: I thought that didn't block bolding
01:59:29 <elliott> ais523: It blocks everything.
01:59:40 <Vorpal> zzo38, this channel will filter it
01:59:44 <ais523> I know my client blocks colors, but not bolding
01:59:47 <elliott> Which is probably for the best; when I'm on Jabber I abuse italics to ridiculous extent.
02:00:01 <ais523> elliott: I've been told off for using /slash italics/ excessively
02:00:01 <olsner> but he's not actually *in* the book, is he? as far as I understand he just (co-)wrote it?
02:00:02 <elliott> Woo, the fan realised I was using the computational power of my CPU and has decided to start going.

02:01:25 <ais523> an inch isn't really a very good comparison

02:01:30 <Sgeo> Well, that was dumb
02:01:33 <ais523> I think even the Satellite is less than an inch thick
02:01:47 <elliott> ais523: it also has ugly feet :)
02:02:00 <elliott> ais523: OK, reword: It literally couldn't fit a bigger port than USB.
02:02:09 <elliott> ais523: The USB port only has the slightest border on the top and bottom.

02:02:25 <ais523> I can't think of much else that fits both statements you've given
02:02:28 <elliott> In my defence, they updated it recently and the specs are now ... well, respectable.
02:02:43 <ais523> and I have no idea how good or otherwise it
02:02:49 <elliott> (Recent Core 2 Duo, 4 gigs of RAM, 1440x900 resolution, a whole *two* USB ports, and a 256 gig SSD.)
02:03:05 <elliott> I wish the fan ran less, but otherwise it's really nice.
02:03:15 <elliott> It seems to like heating up whenever you actually /do/ anything.
02:03:24 <ais523> zzo38: I just see literal characters around the "this"
02:03:27 <Vorpal> zzo38, "<zzo38> Does [0010]this[0010] work?
02:03:30 <ais523> that look like solid triangles pointing left
02:03:45 <ais523> hmm, 0010 = 16 = control-P
02:03:50 <olsner> oh, 1440*900? that's an improvement
02:03:52 <zzo38> ais523: Not to the right?
02:03:56 <elliott> olsner: yes, it's really nice actually
02:04:01 <elliott> olsner: the Toshiba has 1366x768
02:04:11 <ais523> so it's not that much larger a res
02:04:13 <zzo38> Well, does this do anything?
02:04:13 <elliott> I thought the ppi might be a bit high on this considering the proliferation of bitmaps, but it's actually just fine.
02:04:21 <ais523> zzo38: that gives me triangles pointing right
02:04:22 <elliott> ais523: No, but it's definitely a marked improvement.
02:04:41 <olsner> the macbook pros are only 1280x800 in 13"
02:04:41 <ais523> hmm, I grew up on 640x480
02:05:01 <elliott> olsner: well this thing could stand up to a 13" macbook pro
02:05:02 <Vorpal> <zzo38> Well, does this do anything? <-- same as before but 0011 now
02:05:07 <elliott> oh, I forgot to mention it has the same GPU
02:05:13 <elliott> which is /really/ nice, for integrated graphics
02:05:16 <elliott> ais523: I had an idea for an #esoteric collaborative language project, FWIW (there is, in fact, logic behind telling _you_ this in particular).
02:05:25 <Vorpal> elliott, so intel graphics?
02:05:36 <ais523> zzo38: can you embed a literal NUL in your messages? most clients can't, but I wouldn't be surprised if yours could
02:05:43 <Vorpal> elliott, oh. So integrated nvidia? how strange
02:05:49 <elliott> Vorpal: Um, that's incredibly common.
02:06:02 <elliott> ais523: Our own Perl 6: basically, second system design taken to perfection. The biggest language we can think of focusing on ridiculous concision and no care at all for ease of implementation or bloat.
02:06:03 <ais523> Vorpal: it seems unlikely that a Mac would use Intel graphics to me, it doesn't really fit their image
02:06:09 <elliott> ais523: The idea is to beat them at their own silly game :-)
02:06:21 <elliott> ais523: Actually they used to.
02:06:26 <ais523> I actually rather like Perl 6
02:06:43 <zzo38> aos523: Let me see if I can embed a null

02:07:25 <ais523> is that the comment you embedded a nul in?
02:07:35 <zzo38> ais523: I think the server cuts it off.
02:07:40 <ais523> or did you embed it in a different comment, in such a way that it didn't come up at all?
02:07:45 <ais523> server cutting it off wouldn't surprise me
02:07:45 <zzo38> After the null I wrote "there it is"
02:08:11 <elliott> ais523: hmm, it occurs to me that it might turn out quite similar to J
02:08:18 <elliott> e.g., Perl 6 has Zop for zip-with-op
02:08:29 <elliott> so obviously you can have /op for fold-with-op, like J has

02:18:24 <olsner> (and atheist retards are apparently worthless...)
02:19:36 <ais523> elliott: it takes a huge amount of hackery to get autoconf to do build/host/target correctly
02:19:57 <elliott> ais523: more like, when you have a compiler that depends on itself, all this stuff is complicated to do!
02:20:00 <ais523> C-INTERCAL does it by running autoconf twice recursively
02:20:09 <ais523> and even then, that only does build/host, not build/host/target
02:20:11 <elliott> I /hope/ that it'll manage to do a proper bootstrap here, but I fear that it's going to just do an unregistered build
02:20:21 <olsner> that's a shame, I somehow though half the point of autoconf was to make stuff like that work correctly
02:20:29 <ais523> why are you trying to build for 64-bit using a 32-bit compiler anyway?
02:20:38 <ais523> olsner: you should see gcc's autoconf script
02:20:44 <ais523> it's mostly written by hand, in shellscript rather than m4
02:20:52 <elliott> ais523: because the only GHC binaries for 64-bit are two 7.0.1 ones that depend on MacPorts libgmp
02:21:02 <elliott> ais523: and I don't use MacPorts
02:21:05 <zzo38> When I write a program with works without autoconf.
02:21:12 <elliott> ais523: (the support is rather new)
02:21:22 <elliott> ais523: so I'm using the regular 32-bit GHC binary to try and build a 64-bit one
02:21:41 <olsner> ais523: I always thought autoconf was what did that :(
02:21:54 <ais523> autoconf does many things, but not that
02:22:07 <elliott> ais523: I also like how gcc uses _hand-written Makefiles_.
02:22:19 <ais523> it mostly compensates for nonportabilities with other systems
02:22:20 <elliott> ais523: I don't know if you've ever looked at them, but ... those don't look like the product of hands to me.
02:22:33 <elliott> ais523: have you seen GHC's Evil Mangler?
02:22:33 <ais523> elliott: more fun, gcc has various flags describing the machine
02:22:47 <ais523> some combinations aren't supported by the gcc core, and the fact isn't documented except in comments inside the code
02:23:01 <ais523> these combinations are actually used, and the arches that use them have their own code just override the core for that bit
02:23:04 <elliott> ais523: it's a literate perl script that runs regular expressions over C compiler output to remove the C function prologues and epilogues from the assembly ... for _multiple assemblers_
02:23:15 <elliott> ais523: yes, literate perl: they wrote their own literate perl processor
02:23:21 <elliott> ais523: it is, quite possibly, the most evil thing ever written
02:23:23 <ais523> and literate perl already exists
02:23:33 <elliott> POD has nothing to do with literate programming.
02:23:41 <ais523> elliott: it can be abused for that purpose
02:23:48 <elliott> ais523: in this case they used latex: http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc/driver/mangler/ghc-asm.lprl
02:23:55 <elliott> ais523: no, that's not what literate programming is at all
02:24:00 <ais523> or whatever other markup system you like
02:24:05 <ais523> elliott: I've seen literate programming
02:24:14 <ais523> to me, it's nothing to do with the syntax, you could just use regular comments
02:24:17 <elliott> ais523: that's just inline documentation
02:24:26 <ais523> it's to do with how you intersperse the comments and code, and what the comments say
02:24:32 <elliott> ais523: no, it's about reordering the program
02:24:42 <elliott> (but more expressive languages alleviate this need by having more expressive procedural abstractions)
02:24:49 <elliott> (still, if you can't name a procedure a sentence, it isn't really the same)
02:24:59 <ais523> you can do that in algol 68!
02:25:06 <ais523> hello world is an entirely legal variable name
02:26:30 <olsner> the evil mangler is quite impressive in a way
02:26:46 <elliott> ugh, i wish people woul stop talking about pair programming
02:28:53 <olsner> someone should rewrite it in haskell and call it the Holy Mangler
02:29:43 <Vorpal> elliott, how did they port ghc to a new platform in the first place if it can't easily cross compile?
02:29:54 <elliott> Vorpal: unregistered builds
02:30:27 <elliott> Vorpal: complicated things

02:33:03 <Vorpal> elliott, what about starting from a 64-bit ghc 6.x?
02:33:07 <Vorpal> elliott, does that work?
02:33:19 <elliott> "I had my own Wikipedia page for over 18 months. I made myself an apple orchard tycoon from the Midwest. Worst that happened was it being tagged for not including enough citations. When I started seeking "real" jobs I got paranoid that employers would see it and know it was me goofing off so I flagged it as a vanity page and got it taken down. I tried deleting it but the WikiBots auto-reverted it. I was very proud of that page. In fac
02:33:19 <elliott> t, I later found a student at a Wisconsin university had used made up information from that article for his Senior Project (a planned bike route through apple country)."
02:33:22 <elliott> Vorpal: there are no such builds
02:33:26 <elliott> OS X 64-bit support is new
02:34:02 <elliott> I think I'll just make a 32-bit build and save my sanity.
02:34:14 <olsner> it might be nice if ghc porting wasn't so darned difficult
02:34:36 <elliott> olsner: X depending on X is just a general headache :)
02:34:47 <elliott> olsner: but it's shiny so we keep doing it regardless of the engineering problems
02:34:49 <olsner> it'd probably help if it could do cross-compiling (of itself) too
02:35:03 <elliott> olsner: yeah #ghc says this build can't possibly work

02:50:57 <Vorpal> I got it from mcmap the other day
02:51:06 <Vorpal> elliott, so you never get a segfault on there?
02:51:08 <elliott> They say bus error for whatever reason, perhaps Mach.
02:51:10 <Vorpal> or do you get that too?
02:51:19 <elliott> Vorpal: I think it's mostly bus errors. I think I may have seen a segfault once or twice.
02:51:32 * elliott builds a 32-bit GHC instead
02:51:36 <Vorpal> elliott, on linux you see bus error once or twice instead
02:51:43 <elliott> stow is actually quite nice i wonder what pikhq dislikes about it
02:51:48 <Vorpal> elliott, why do you hate macports?
02:52:00 <olsner> I've never seen a bus error on linux, only on solaris and mac
02:52:17 <elliott> Vorpal: (1) they like to duplicate a lot of software Apple includes, which tends to be irritating ... except that they don't duplicate all of it, e.g. gcc (even though they have a gcc package), so managing everything can be a real pain
02:52:21 <elliott> Vorpal: it's pretty darn slow
02:52:22 <Vorpal> olsner, happens like... 2-3 times / year on linux for me
02:52:25 <elliott> Vorpal: it's really complex
02:52:33 <elliott> Vorpal: it's often out of date, sometimes significantly
02:52:39 <elliott> Vorpal: and it just generally isn't pleasant to use.
02:52:53 <elliott> Vorpal: it's very easy to screw things up when using macports.
02:53:00 <elliott> because you have to keep track of what youre using the apple version of vs macports
02:53:03 <Vorpal> elliott, but would using it for bootstrapping ghc hurt?
02:53:11 <elliott> Vorpal: I just downloaded the GHC installer for that.
02:53:16 <elliott> MacPorts wouldn't make that any simpler.
02:53:22 <Vorpal> elliott, oh but for 64-bit I meant
02:53:25 <elliott> I think MacPorts has a 64-bit GHC, but really, 32-bit works better for now.
02:53:31 <elliott> Vorpal: well that'd be silly
02:53:37 <elliott> Vorpal: because macports already does download binary -> build from source
02:53:44 <elliott> so i'd have to build ghc from source TWCIE
02:53:51 <elliott> and that is the point where i commit suicide
02:53:59 <Vorpal> elliott, well but why not download the binary only
02:54:03 <Vorpal> elliott, and use that bit
02:54:28 <elliott> Vorpal: Because binaries suxxx0r0r0r. :p (Because I want it in my /opt stow-based system, and GHC isn't relocatable.)
02:54:57 <Vorpal> elliott, so get 64-bit binary version. Use that to build your own 64-bit one from source
02:55:11 <elliott> Vorpal: 64-bit binary requires macports libs.
02:55:12 <Vorpal> elliott, you can remove the non-/opt one once you built your new one
02:55:20 <elliott> Vorpal: OR HOW ABOUT THIS JUST USE THE 32-BIT ONE
02:55:22 <Vorpal> elliott, so get that single macports lib
02:55:27 <Vorpal> elliott, THAT IS GIVING IN!
02:55:28 <elliott> more than single. much more
02:55:30 <elliott> would also involve macports perl
02:55:39 <Vorpal> elliott, chroot for it?
02:55:43 <elliott> if I wanted to do it 64-bit, I'd LOOK AT THE MACPORTS BUILD SCRIPT to figure out how it does it
02:55:54 <elliott> Vorpal: macports already does everything in /opt/local so that would be pointless.
02:55:57 -!- cheater99 has joined.
02:55:59 <elliott> also making an OS X chroot sounds "fun"
02:56:07 <Vorpal> elliott, well then easy to clean up after!
02:56:43 <elliott> haha, there is Gentoo/Interix
02:57:02 <elliott> Gentoo/Interix (eprefix) is a port of Gentoo that runs atop the Interix Subsystem for Windows which is also known as Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX (SFU) or Subsystem for Unix-based Applications (SUA).
02:57:02 <elliott> A result of the Gentoo/Interix project is the ability to install and use the Portage system to emerge native Windows applications (requires Visual Studio, 2008 Express Edition will do too). However, this feature does not support the wide variety of packages supported by other platforms (including Interix).
02:57:11 <Vorpal> elliott, I bet there is like one guy using it. The maintainer
02:57:22 <elliott> Vorpal: I'd write something like that without any intention of using it just for the lulz :)
02:57:46 <Vorpal> elliott, I'd doubt you would touch gentoo though
02:58:04 <Vorpal> elliott, otherwise I charge you to do Gentoo/Hurd (unless this is done?)
02:58:15 <elliott> Vorpal: apparently the port to gnu hurd was abandoned (for gentoo/alt)
02:58:27 <elliott> interix support but no HURD
02:58:34 <elliott> then again hurd guys are basically in bed with debian so i'm not surprised

03:00:02 <elliott> Vorpal: here in OS X land we live in a land of perfect solutions. that is why we use a modified 4.3BSD kernel running on top of Mach, with a FreeBSD userland, running a windowing system which renders using PDFs.
03:00:23 <Vorpal> elliott, wait, doesn't quartz use opengl?
03:00:24 <elliott> (yes, Quartz is Display PostScript: The PDF Version)
03:00:36 <Vorpal> elliott, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
03:00:38 -!- poiuy_qwert has joined.
03:00:43 <olsner> Vorpal: ... to render the PDF:s :P
03:00:50 <elliott> [[It is widely stated that Quartz "uses PDF" internally, often by people making comparisons with the Display PostScript technology used in NeXTSTEP (of which Mac OS X is a descendant) and OPENSTEP. Quartz's internal imaging model correlates well with the PDF object graph, making it easy to output PDF to multiple devices.[6]]]
03:00:54 <Vorpal> elliott, doesn't the pdf stuff slow down a LOT
03:01:11 <elliott> Vorpal: fun fact, before OS X 10.4 or so, the default OS X screenshot format was .pdf
03:01:23 <elliott> actual, scalable PDF ... apart from all the bitmaps used in the UI that made it utterly pointless
03:01:30 <elliott> but yes, you actually got screenshots ending in .pdf.
03:02:01 <elliott> Vorpal: despite all of this insanity, it's better than X11 :)
03:02:02 <olsner> if it was used to make actually scalable UI:s, it'd be pretty awesome
03:02:08 <Vorpal> elliott, doesn't OS X use scalable icons and so on?
03:02:12 <Vorpal> so where are the bitmaps?
03:02:26 <Vorpal> elliott, but look in finder on program icons. They are scalable
03:02:27 <elliott> Vorpal: UI elements are bitmaps, icons are (512px or something) bitmaps
03:02:32 <elliott> Vorpal: no, they're just really huge bitmaps
03:02:36 <elliott> rendered in multiple sizes
03:02:43 <elliott> not rendered in multiple sizes
03:02:44 <Vorpal> elliott, even linux uses svg nowdays
03:02:55 <elliott> Vorpal: yes, but it doesn't
03:03:02 <elliott> a regular default-gnome or tango setup won't use svg
03:03:07 <elliott> even though the option is available
03:03:10 <elliott> since there's faster rendered bitmaps
03:03:38 <Vorpal> elliott, actually, I looked at readahead files from ubuntu. It does load a handful of *.svg
03:03:44 <Vorpal> elliott, more *.png though
03:03:59 <Vorpal> elliott, I think computer.svg got loaded by gdm for example
03:04:41 <elliott> VROOOM IM A JET ENGINE VROOOOM VROOOM COMPILING VROOOOM
03:05:02 <elliott> Vorpal: it makes a noise even when i hold it up :P
03:05:16 <Vorpal> elliott, well duh. But future kids
03:05:22 <elliott> also little molecules of dirt are sweating off my palms onto the aluminium ... lovely. guess that's why they use plastic
03:05:39 <elliott> Vorpal: I don't think me reproducing would give very good prospects as to the estimated further lifespan of the universe
03:05:47 <elliott> I got lucky, I'm not *100%* evil.
03:06:14 <elliott> Also they'd be little versions of me, and god knows I irritate myself enough already.
03:06:22 <quintopia> pfft. he's a comparative teddy bear to 100% evil
03:06:39 <elliott> quintopia: you don't understand how *nice* 100% evil can be
03:07:26 <Vorpal> elliott, why is the ghc evil mangler written in perl
03:07:36 <quintopia> elliott: oh maybe i do and realize that your occasional dickwaddery moves you closer to averagely evil
03:07:39 <elliott> Vorpal: because FUCK YEAH LITERATE PERL FILE RUNNING REGEXPS ON C COMPILER OUTPUT
03:07:52 <Vorpal> elliott, why not write it in haskell
03:08:00 <elliott> i'm going to be really nice from now on and then slit everyone's throat
03:08:08 <Vorpal> elliott, also, literate perl!? that's even more wtf
03:08:20 <elliott> Vorpal: because that'd make porting even more of a pain. also, because haskell probably didn't have too good regexp support at the time :P
03:08:25 <elliott> Vorpal: yeah, they wrote their own literate perl processor
03:08:31 <elliott> Vorpal: note: it is only used when compiling via C.
03:08:36 <elliott> which is not the recommended way to do things usually
03:08:51 <Vorpal> elliott, well once it was the only way?
03:08:55 <elliott> -fvia-C really means "use the C compiler as a code generator, and then strip out all the C function bits from it"
03:08:57 <Sgeo> If we're on the subject of painful theme songs..
03:09:20 <Vorpal> Sgeo, that was ages ago. topic closed.
03:09:37 <olsner> the evil mangler was also ages ago
03:09:45 <elliott> olsner: but that doesn't involve Sgeo singing
03:09:46 <olsner> more ages than bad themes
03:10:05 <Sgeo> Which is worse, the SGI theme or my singing?
03:10:43 <Sgeo> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67E-_SQLVRo
03:11:29 <Vorpal> <elliott> stop being That Guy! <-- ??
03:12:01 <Vorpal> elliott, a reference I do not get.
03:12:10 <Vorpal> elliott, though it does sound familiar
03:12:10 <elliott> Not even really a reference :P
03:12:11 <olsner> stargate infiiiinity-ity-ity-ity-ity
03:12:42 <Vorpal> elliott, speaking of music that is actually good though it really feels like it shouldn't be: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zSgiXGELjbc
03:12:49 <olsner> infinititty? that sounds like something worth watching
03:12:51 <elliott> quintopia: its so u recognise
03:12:51 <quintopia> it made it funny hahaha yes it did
03:12:51 <Vorpal> (note: that was the first line speaking of it)
03:12:58 <elliott> Vorpal: dude /I/ linked you to that
03:13:04 <Vorpal> elliott, yes, but not recently
03:13:11 <Vorpal> elliott, and it is widely spread really
03:13:12 <elliott> quintopia: yes it was a funny humorus
03:13:57 <olsner> Vorpal: yuck, there's autotune in it
03:14:11 <Vorpal> olsner, true. He /spoke/ that.
03:14:16 <elliott> olsner: you expect Carl Sagan to sing properly in a TV series? :D
03:14:20 <elliott> that would have been so much better
03:14:23 <elliott> if he just sang all the time for no reason
03:14:36 <olsner> The Universe: The Musical
03:14:42 <Vorpal> elliott, what is the first bit from "I'm not great good at singing but here is a try"
03:14:49 <Vorpal> elliott, is it from that series or?
03:14:51 <elliott> "RIP Carl.ο»Ώ Fuck off to all those low-life career theoretical physicists."
03:14:53 <quintopia> a glorious dawn is actually still my favorite melodysheep track
03:15:01 <elliott> low-life career theoretical physicists
03:15:03 <quintopia> even despite the hundreds of others now
03:15:05 <elliott> a phrase i never ever expected to read
03:15:05 <Vorpal> elliott, so he /did/ sing in it?
03:15:28 <Vorpal> elliott, err, I haven't watched the series (it is on my todo list)
03:15:31 <Vorpal> elliott, so what whalesong?
03:15:35 <elliott> Vorpal: the Whoop-booo he does at the start
03:15:41 <quintopia> Vorpal: "I'm not very good at singing whale songs, but I'll give it a dtry."
03:15:51 <elliott> Stephen Hawking should do a rap album after that bridge in A Glorious Dawn
03:16:05 <elliott> Might have to hack up his software a bit though :-P
03:16:06 <quintopia> elliott: MC Hawking. it's hilarious.
03:16:15 <elliott> but it'd be better if he actually did it
03:16:40 <elliott> quintopia: how do you know
03:16:52 <olsner> yeah, why not? seems like a fun thing to do
03:17:00 <elliott> dammit GHC compile faster, I need to go to the toilet
03:17:14 <Sgeo> elliott, you can't leave it unattended?
03:17:15 <quintopia> because he's not studying it? he's thinking about math n shit?
03:17:17 <Vorpal> elliott, PUT IT ON THE FLOOR?
03:17:29 <olsner> especially for someone who can't really talk, and can barely do it through text-to-speech, rapping would be pretty awesome
03:17:35 <elliott> Vorpal: no i'm just scared to leave it alone in case it becomes sentient
03:17:35 <Vorpal> I think I need to clean keyboard
03:17:38 <quintopia> get off your ath and do some math. math, math, math, math, math
03:17:46 <Vorpal> elliott, hit ctrl-z to pause it?
03:17:46 <elliott> olsner: only valid if he does it in real time though
03:17:52 <Vorpal> elliott, will ALSO cool down the thing
03:17:54 <elliott> Vorpal: i don't trust that to work reliably :)
03:18:03 <Vorpal> elliott, when has that ever broken?
03:18:25 <Vorpal> elliott, dude, a program can't trap the relevant signal, unless it is pid 1
03:18:46 <olsner> you need to spend time with your new build so it doesn't end up a misanthropist
03:18:53 <elliott> olsner: he wouldn't have any trouble actually rapping though
03:18:58 <elliott> just add some sleep()s into his software to wait for a beat
03:19:08 <elliott> he should just never turn it off
03:19:10 <elliott> and rap all of his interviews
03:19:41 <quintopia> including end rhyme, mid rhyme, and ghetto slang
03:23:39 <Vorpal> quintopia, no need for the latter. Just do it as nerdcore
03:24:14 <quintopia> nerdcore can still get crunk up in the hizzouse
03:24:27 <Vorpal> quintopia, if you haven't seen it already: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nigRT2KmCE (I don't like rap in general, but this is an exception)
03:24:39 <elliott> I'm pretty sure *everyone* knows who MC Frontalot is :P
03:24:46 <Vorpal> elliott, sure, but that song?
03:24:52 <elliott> Gangster christian nerdcore I would go for
03:25:06 <elliott> (christian gangster rap was one of the nullsoft genres)
03:26:35 <elliott> oerjan: comfortable rock is it?
03:28:39 -!- oerjan has quit (Quit: Already got one).
03:29:38 <Vorpal> elliott, oh no. You made him go to sleep. Now I have to provide the puns.

03:34:27 * variable thinks he accidentally copy/pasted and now can't stop it
03:34:27 <elliott> had no idea how long that would be
03:34:29 <elliott> i just copied one compilation line to mock ghc
03:34:40 <Sgeo> variable, there's always ways to stop copy/paste
03:35:02 <elliott> oh wow that is a lot of lines, i didn't even look that far back
03:35:10 <quintopia> i can't decide if the title text or the comic itself is stupider. but i know i don't care to look at again to try to decide
03:35:15 <variable> elliott, xkcd is not always accurate - for example the tic-tac-toe one had errors in the drawings
03:35:19 <elliott> variable: elliott, xkcd is not always accurate - for example the tic-tac-toe one had errors in the drawings
03:35:28 <elliott> variable: I wouldn't mind, if only it was funny
03:35:48 <variable> you dare call xkcd NOT funny ?
03:35:58 <elliott> variable: yeah ... it really isn't
03:36:01 <elliott> it was great before comic 400.
03:36:04 <elliott> afterwards, not so much so.
03:36:15 <variable> elliott, nope - that's a cognitive bias
03:36:29 <elliott> is that how you respond to criticism of work?
03:36:32 <Sgeo> variable, hmm?
03:36:36 <elliott> "You DON'T LIKE XKCD? It's because your brain's broken."
03:36:50 <variable> elliott, you missed what I as refering to as the bias
03:36:54 <Sgeo> I think... I accidentally made a reference of some kind.
03:36:57 <elliott> variable: that it's getting worse?
03:37:04 <elliott> it's not like i'm the only person to notice that. whenever they started reading.
03:37:08 <Sgeo> variable, WTF did I reference?
03:37:09 <elliott> it's fairly obvious that randall is running out of ideas.
03:37:10 <quintopia> elliott is correct in this case though. everyone knows xkcd just isn't as good as it once was
03:37:28 <elliott> just because a lot of observations about "THE GOOD OL' DAYS" are false doesn't make them universally false.
03:38:00 <elliott> if I hadn't already seen them, I guarantee you I could accurately sort, say, comics 550 and onwards from comics 350 and before (ignoring the ones in the middle as being part of a decline and so harder to categorise) with high accuracy
03:38:06 <variable> elliott, sort of. you remember the earlier good ones and forget the earlier bad ones. I'll bet that if you were to go thru them all in a random order and mark them good and bad the distribution would be roughly the same
03:38:16 <quintopia> elliott: i think he was saying it sucked before too
03:38:50 <quintopia> because i have done this experiment
03:38:52 <elliott> 03:35 variable: elliott, blasphemer
03:38:52 <elliott> 03:35 variable: you dare call xkcd NOT funny ?
03:38:54 <elliott> well ok he could be joking
03:39:00 <quintopia> and there were a lot more good ones then than there are now
03:39:19 <variable> elliott, I'll mark jokes with :-) if a I remember for now on - ok ? :-)
03:39:27 <elliott> just mark every line with :)
03:39:29 <elliott> variable: but no, xkcd really _has_ decreased in quality. i say this as someone who is almost to the point of paranoia with checking their own cognitive biases
03:40:10 <variable> elliott, the only way to really tell that would be to perform some kind of randomized ordering and rating of a representative sample of the comic
03:41:08 <elliott> variable: it is, in fact, possible to derive accurate results _without_ always performing the most anal procedure.
03:41:17 <variable> (as an aside its been showing that being aware of cognitive biases and specifically attempting to avoid them might increase their likelyhood of affecting a person btw)
03:41:23 <elliott> humans are capable of quite good rational thought if self-analysed to a sufficient degree.
03:41:46 * elliott wonders if variable is a Less Wronger.
03:42:44 <Sgeo> Is there a name for something where I'm more attracted to someone if I know they've had a rough past?
03:43:14 <variable> Sgeo, "Little Shop of Horrors"
03:43:22 <elliott> variable: lol i like the timing of that
03:43:25 <elliott> 03:42 Sgeo: Is there a name for something where I'm more attracted to someone if I know they've had a rough past?
03:43:26 <elliott> 03:42 variable: Sgeo, "Little Shop of Horrors"
03:43:47 <elliott> `addquote <Sgeo> Is there a name for something where I'm more attracted to someone if I know they've had a rough past? <variable> Sgeo, "Little Shop of Horrors"

03:44:28 <variable> elliott, I've not seen that blog before

03:45:28 <variable> elliott, I've not seen that blog before
03:45:41 <variable> is there something particular about what I said that made you think of that?
03:45:47 <variable> if so is it positive or negative ?

05:15:28 <myndzi> ur just jelly of me listenin to flac vinyl rips on my grado headphones through this expensive ass setup
05:15:50 <elliott> myndzi: i bet you can distinguish lame -V2 --joint-stereo from flac too
05:15:57 <elliott> and WAVs from the CDs themselves
05:16:08 <Sgeo> I could swear I've heard "jelly" used in that context before
05:16:13 <myndzi> i can distinguish between different pressings of the same cd
05:16:35 <myndzi> it's whatever pitch they say it is and i dare you to argue
05:16:57 <elliott> myndzi: the sane audiophiles are all at hydrogenaudio :p
05:19:55 <Sgeo> Did I ever tell you my sudo story?
05:20:33 * Sgeo should put a label on it: Warning: May cause death by boredom
05:27:24 <Sgeo> I had two terminal windows open, one to the school and one for the computer I was using
05:27:43 <Sgeo> I tried to sudo apt-get something, I think Chromium, but I was doing it at the wrong terminal
05:27:58 <elliott> TODO: Figure out how to make cabal-install run "stow -v ghc" after installing/removing anything to redo the appropriate links.
05:28:00 <Sgeo> Realized it eventually, and sent the person in charge of that system a message
05:28:11 <elliott> TODO: Figure out how to make cabal-install do copying and registering separately to integrate with stow.
05:28:20 <elliott> TODO: Perhaps abandon this silly idea and just install into ~/.cabal like normal people do.
05:28:29 <myndzi> Sgeo: my brother plays muds a lot still
05:28:41 <myndzi> he was granted an immortal character with OLC access
05:28:55 <myndzi> he used to often get mixed up with which character he was on
05:29:00 <Sgeo> I just got annoyed
05:29:00 <myndzi> so he changed his immortal's prompt to be something like
05:29:15 <Sgeo> That my password wasn't working
05:29:43 <Sgeo> j-invariant, so I could install Chromium!
05:29:50 <elliott> TODO: Or maybe have stow stow packages separately.
05:30:00 <j-invariant> but why did you say you have two terminals open?
05:30:08 <elliott> TODO: Maybe redo the bootstrap with executable stripping.
05:30:14 <elliott> j-invariant: did it on the wrong terminal, got REPORTED
05:30:39 <j-invariant> I can't figure out how to make a program not-crap with GTK
05:31:08 <Sgeo> I have a slightly more interesting story
05:31:31 <Sgeo> No, that was the deadily boring story
05:32:31 <Sgeo> So these numbskulls in class were playing with wall
05:33:14 <Sgeo> I threaten to disable the next person who does so
05:33:20 <Sgeo> (Just yes | write whoever)
05:33:28 <Sgeo> But I wouldn't tell them that ofc
05:33:49 <Sgeo> Person closes PuTTY, opens it again, and walls again
05:34:23 <Sgeo> So, the next thing I do, I write something stupid on the command line to do yes | write in an infinite loop
05:34:46 <Sgeo> Next thing I know, people are complaining that the system's not working
05:34:50 <Sgeo> Nothing's happening
05:35:18 <Sgeo> Someone eventually reaches to turn off my computer, despite my protests that it wouldn't work. It did.
05:35:31 <elliott> Shell conncetion got dropped, duh.
05:36:00 <Sgeo> Next class, we learn that someone was trying to work from home, couldn't, and complained
05:36:17 <Sgeo> The people who were using wall got in trouble. I did not.
05:36:53 <j-invariant> you are the one that caused all the problems
05:37:21 <Sgeo> Oh, and wall got disabled permanently
05:37:39 <Sgeo> Ehh, wall is still a problem. But yeah
05:39:17 <Sgeo> Spams yes to whoever's being written to
05:39:31 <Sgeo> Erm, oops. Yeah
05:40:24 <myndzi> how does that disable someone?
05:40:49 <j-invariant> it's like they ae running yes in their own terminal
05:40:54 <Sgeo> PuTTY does not like being spammed
05:41:11 <Sgeo> j-invariant, I think it actually froze PuTTY
05:41:27 <myndzi> i just am unfamiliar with unix commands so i thought maybe it was doing something sly
05:41:55 <Sgeo> It was doing something y

14:50:29 * oerjan realizes the paradox of variable learning haskell
14:54:09 -!- Sgeo has joined.
14:59:34 <oerjan> haskell is purely functional, so everything is constant, not variable
14:59:43 * oerjan sweeps some IORefs under the rug
15:03:10 <oerjan> also some STRefs, MVars and TVars
15:04:20 <Sgeo> I think Newspeak's "module" system has spoiled me. Racket's makes me want to barf.
15:05:00 <Sgeo> And I'm convinced that the Factor people have their head in the sand, unless they're planning to pull a Racket and have a centralized distribution source
15:07:05 * oerjan now imagines a language named Ostrich
15:08:33 <oerjan> naturally it would be based on ignoring all errors as long as possible
15:09:36 <oerjan> and having a number of flawed design choices

15:11:27 <oerjan> i'm not aware of whether java ignores errors
15:11:46 <oerjan> i never got much deeper than hello, world in it
15:12:19 <oerjan> i guess the second part applies to everyone's favorite hate languages
15:13:30 <oerjan> yeah but i hear it's a mess unless you work in a carefully restricted subset (and different people choose different subsets)
15:13:46 * oerjan doesn't know php or c++ either
15:14:38 <oerjan> actually i recall java's checked exceptions are supposedly so annoying that people _do_ tend to ignore them, so maybe it fits
15:15:39 * variable disliks the exception paradigm
15:16:12 <variable> its pretty much a "goto" but in an if statement :-)
15:16:13 <Vorpal> variable, a few (out of many) reasons that C++ is deeply flawed: templates sucking, multiple inheritance, operator++ overloading for ++x vs. x++, STL being crazy (especially the io stuff)
15:16:26 <Vorpal> there are a lot more reasons why C++ sucks
15:16:39 <oerjan> incidentally haskell has _several_ variants of exception mechanisms, some purely functional and some not
15:16:39 <Vorpal> j-invariant, yes, and badly designed
15:17:04 <variable> Vorpal, templates are one of my fav. parts of C++, nothing is wrong with MI if you know what your doing; STL is crazy and I wish there were certain; blah blah blah
15:17:15 <variable> I don't want to start this convo
15:17:17 <oerjan> from the near-trivial Maybe monad up to IO exceptions
15:18:28 <Sgeo> Paging coppro, paging coppro
15:18:53 <oerjan> and a MonadError type class, i'm not quite sure if all the examples belong to it
15:19:03 <Vorpal> variable, did you know that while C++ is not TC (nor is C) thanks to sizeof(void*) having to be finite, C++ templates are actually TC at compile time.
15:19:50 <variable> Vorpal, but its an interesting piece of knowledge (trivia?)
15:20:16 <olsner> except that templates usually come with a maximum recursion depth to force them to terminate
15:20:47 <Vorpal> variable, and that parsing C++ requires you to do syntax and semantic analysis in one pass since you will get ambiguous parse tree otherwise.
15:20:52 <variable> its a minimum of 16 -> but the standard allows infinite
15:21:01 <variable> Vorpal, yeah - its not context free
15:21:33 <oerjan> ghc's type system is also TC at compile time if you set the right extension flags
15:21:56 <Vorpal> I think something like A B(C); parses differently depending on what a, b and c are.
15:22:14 <oerjan> Vorpal: that was the case already in C
15:22:29 <Vorpal> oerjan, yes quite. But also C++ adds a few more variants to that
15:22:59 <Vorpal> oerjan, for example, myclass foo(42); Now that won't be a possible way to parse it in C since it has no constructors
15:24:55 <oerjan> i read that they're going to introduce a new type kind in haskell to solve the newtype deriving inconsistencies
15:25:16 <Sgeo> newtype deriving inconsistencies?
15:26:12 <oerjan> Sgeo: ghc's newtype deriving extension is inconsistent with both the GADT and the type family extensions
15:26:34 <oerjan> you can combine them in such a way as to convert any type to any other
15:26:50 <Vorpal> oerjan, convert in what sort of way?
15:28:03 <oerjan> in such a way as to break type safety
15:28:17 <Vorpal> oerjan, right, but what will happen if you do it
15:28:48 <Sgeo> unsafeCoerce vorpal :: Int
15:28:55 <oerjan> if you convert an Int to a function type you would be able to jump to an arbitrary address
15:29:21 <oerjan> yeah you could define unsafeCoerce :: a -> b with this, i think
15:29:51 <oerjan> (of course unsafeCoerce _is_ already defined somewhere, but that's what the unsafe* prefixes are for)
15:29:56 <Vorpal> oerjan, could you use this to get the bit pattern of a floating point value for example?
15:30:12 <oerjan> Vorpal: i would think so...
15:30:19 <Vorpal> oerjan, is there any other way to do that?
15:30:42 <Sgeo> Vorpal, when I tell people in C++ channels that I'm using reinterpret_cast, and they yell at me, it's because they don't realize that's what I want to do
15:30:43 <oerjan> well the RealFloat class has methods to get most of the information
15:30:44 <Vorpal> oerjan, I suddenly got an urge to do that famous inverse square function in haskell!
15:31:33 <oerjan> you mean integer square root?
15:31:40 <Vorpal> oerjan, I mean http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_inverse_square_root
15:31:47 <Vorpal> oerjan, the one famous from quake
15:32:07 <Vorpal> with magic number and so on
15:34:01 <Vorpal> oerjan, surely you heard about it before
15:34:58 <oerjan> it vaguely rings a bell
15:35:13 <oerjan> especially that strange constant thing
15:36:18 <oerjan> lessee how does this inconsistency work again
15:37:22 <oerjan> class Trap a b where trap :: f a -> f b
15:37:53 <oerjan> instance Trap Int Int where trap = id
15:41:25 <oerjan> http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/1496
15:42:35 <Vorpal> hm. Does anyone know if there is any good algorithms for uninlining? For a brainfuck compiler this could be an optimisation, trying to factor out code into functions.

17:26:54 <Sgeo> So I'm told that AW telegrams are secure
17:27:02 <Sgeo> I instantly disbelieve it
17:27:15 <Sgeo> So I open Wireshark, send a test message, stop collecting
17:27:35 <Sgeo> And can't find the message in Wireshark. Doesn't prove that it's secure, but it's not plaintext like I was expecting
17:30:34 <Ilari> One can have all sorts of insecure encryption schemes... And those schemes look just as good in ciphertext as really secure ones.
17:34:57 <Sgeo> Although, it's probably safer than email
17:35:31 <Ilari> Calculating the total entropy of message blocks doesn't tell much either. Both good and bad encryption can have high entropy.
17:35:54 <Sgeo> Ilari, tbh, I can't even isolate the packets, I don't know how and not going to try

18:33:36 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: And INIT SYSTEMS
18:34:25 <olsner> INIT SYSTEMS EAT PARENTS!
18:34:37 <olsner> they do, even though they may not have eaten yours
18:35:53 <Vorpal> in other words: never get children of your own
18:36:21 <olsner> or at least: never expose yourself to init systems after getting children
18:36:40 <Vorpal> olsner, tricky in this modern world of computers
18:37:17 <Vorpal> wait.... AHA! So *that* is how they plan to take over.
18:37:26 <Vorpal> matrix, terminator. they were all wrong
18:37:45 <Vorpal> instead, they are going to scare humans into not having children
18:37:58 <Vorpal> elliott, it has an init system of some sort. Not a /sbin/init sure
18:38:05 <olsner> if windows has no init system, how does it start?
18:38:31 <Vorpal> elliott, but there is something that checks and mounts filesystem, starts services and so on
18:38:55 <olsner> windows' "Services" seem to be kind of the corresponding thing, winlogon does some more stuff
18:39:40 <olsner> but I think basic system startup like mounting filesystems is done before any of that

18:53:08 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: That's why you put Linux on it. Duh.
18:53:38 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: Preferably use a tiling window manager, semitransparent terminals with tiny, unantialised green text over inane anime wallpaper, and LOTS AND LOTS OF NCURSES PROGRAMS.
18:53:48 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: Which specs?
18:54:06 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: Yes, but which specs in particular.
18:54:10 <elliott> The GPU is probably the second-best integrated graphics out there, which isn't bad if you ask me.
18:54:17 <elliott> I don't actually recommend the MBA since it's hideously expensive :P

18:54:35 <Phantom_Hoover_> Who are you poking fun at with the tiling window manager thing, BtW,

18:58:18 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: So what specs are low?
18:58:42 <Phantom_Hoover_> elliott, erm. Clock speed, although I know it doesn't matter very much. RAM.
18:58:56 <Vorpal> btw, while *nix permissions are rather limited, they have the advantage of being simple.
18:59:21 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: 2.1 GHz of a recent Core 2 Duo ain't bad at all. As you said, clock speed is irrelevant -- I really wish they had never advertised it at all, ever. BTW, my previous laptop was 1.3 GHz and you wouldn't notice.
18:59:22 <Vorpal> which is good when it comes to security IMO.
18:59:31 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: RAM -- I have 4 gigs.
18:59:33 <Vorpal> (harder to get it wrong)
18:59:41 <elliott> Don't think you'll find 8 gigs on a consumer laptop with more than 2 minutes of battery life any time soon.
18:59:54 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: You were probably looking at the 11 inch version, or looking at the uncustomised 13 inch version.
19:00:00 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: You have to up the specs before ordering :-P
19:00:11 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: Um, Β£expensive.
19:00:33 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: I upped the RAM to 4 gigs and the SSD to 256 gigs and it came out to somewhere just under one-and-a-half kilo-monetary-units.
19:00:46 <elliott> tl;dr WHOO THIS THING IS GONNA LAST ME A DECADE
19:01:43 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: But, yes, the unupgraded Air is kind of silly what with its 2 gigs.
19:02:25 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: If you're okay with a 128 gig SSD, you can get a 4 gig air for Β£1,179 apparently.
19:02:33 <elliott> Oh, wait, that's with the lower clock speed.
19:02:40 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover_: I also upped the clock from 1.86 to 2.1 GHz, btw.
19:02:46 <elliott> In my defence, it has more cache.

19:11:28 <elliott> Phantom_Scrooger: WHY NOT MWAHAHAHA
19:11:38 <Vorpal> elliott, shouldn't the compiler be able to optimise that by a simple variable liveness analysis?
19:11:45 <elliott> Phantom_Scrooger: that's not int-sized :P

19:16:44 <coppro> Sgeo: you were paging me
19:16:47 <coppro> and I can't resist a pun
19:16:48 <elliott> this is the same as the sh code
19:16:51 <coppro> elliott: that looks like perl 6
19:17:06 <coppro> * * *** ** * ** * * * * * ** ** **** ** ** ** ** *
19:17:10 <elliott> \ followed by anything adds that char to the current command
19:17:19 <elliott> anything but a space adds that char to the current command
19:17:23 <elliott> space moves on to the next command
19:17:25 <Vorpal> elliott, is this a shell in the same sense as /bin/sh?
19:17:39 <elliott> it's meant for writing simple init scrpts
19:17:46 <elliott> to avoid the slowness of /bin/sh :D
19:17:59 <elliott> Vorpal: FEFE DID IT SO I CAN
19:18:16 <Vorpal> elliott, also will it integrate into init then, or how will you make it fast
19:19:07 <elliott> serdo has a bit of bloat though, it can do "cd" and "export"
19:19:19 <Vorpal> elliott, cd is probably a good idea
19:19:26 <Vorpal> elliott, also I doubt that adds much if it isn't used
19:19:32 <elliott> I think I'll make every assignment an export
19:20:01 <Vorpal> elliott, in fact you need cd if you plan to handle any sort of daemon that wants to be chrooted
19:20:16 <elliott> Vorpal: well yes. note that init scripts aren't services
19:20:31 <elliott> in fact most services will probably have their "run" linked to an actual command plus a "params" file with parameters to it
19:20:33 <Vorpal> elliott, oh so this is not for starting daemons?
19:20:38 <elliott> (idea to avoid pointless shell invocations stolen from fefe's minit)
19:20:39 <Vorpal> elliott, but rather, for the stuff before that?

19:20:47 <elliott> Vorpal: yes, /etc/rc/start.
19:20:55 <elliott> Vorpal: of course it might still be useful for starting daemons in a lot of cases.

19:52:14 <elliott> Phantom_Scrooger: I think it's the former, actually.

21:37:59 <Gregor> My current jacket has 19 pockets and removable sleeves, but it keeps falling apart ... it's also less expensive.
21:38:17 <nooga> i drink beer after beer and eat tuna salad
21:38:56 <nooga> and then cheap champagne
21:39:13 <nooga> and then i will code
21:39:58 <elliott> Gregor: 37 mothafuckin' pockets.
21:40:03 <elliott> You ... do not need that many pockets.
21:40:41 <Sgeo> If you're going to have more than one pocket, you should have a potentially infinite amount!
21:40:45 <Gregor> elliott: It's not considered socially acceptable for a man to carry a purse!
21:41:06 <elliott> Gregor: Clearly you must become a woman!
21:41:12 <nooga> i use two pockets: one for wallet and keys and one for cellphone
21:41:18 <Gregor> I use all of my 19 except for one inner pocket and the back pocket. The back pocket because it's useless, the inner pocket because I use the other one 'til it falls apart, then switch.
21:41:23 <nooga> and then maybe one for cigarretes and lighter
21:42:09 <nooga> now i have this cursed blueberry bold
21:42:29 <nooga> and it sucks compared to my old ericsson w200i
21:42:49 <Vorpal> <elliott> Gregor: 37 mothafuckin' pockets. <-- awesome
21:42:52 <nooga> and it's harder to send a text message
21:43:42 <Gregor> Pocket uses: (USB thumbdrives, camera batteries, other electrogadgets), (change), (student ID and/or bus pass), (pencils/pens), (tripod), (camera), (pocket reserved for unexpected carryables), (recycling when no bin is about), (papers to keep), (larger electrogadgets), (wallet), (passport)
21:44:02 <Gregor> Admittedly that's only 12/19, I'd have to look at the jacket to remember what I use the others for :P
21:44:09 <elliott> Gregor: Dude, you have ... way too many possessions.
21:44:22 <elliott> Or, at least, way too many possessions on ha- why do you carry a tripod everywhere.
21:44:47 <Vorpal> Gregor, "Travel around town or around the world" it says under "Key Features" (gah text as image, hate that). Does that mean the travel is included in the jacket somehow?
21:44:47 <Gregor> Also, I missed my phone on that list lawl, that's a pocket too :P
21:44:54 <Vorpal> Gregor, if so, can you opt out?
21:44:58 <Gregor> Oh, I missed my keys! Yeesh!
21:45:09 <Gregor> (Vorpal said "key" :P )
21:45:36 <Gregor> Oh yeah, and two hand pockets.
21:45:40 <elliott> Gregor: Fill up the rest of your pockets with a wearable computer.
21:45:48 <elliott> You could practically carry an i7 rig around in that jacket you're considering :P
21:45:58 <Vorpal> Gregor, "(student ID and/or bus pass)" "(passport)" <-- don't both of those go into wallet?
21:46:13 <Gregor> elliott: I assume by "practically" you actually mean "practically", as in "it would be practical"
21:46:42 <Vorpal> Gregor, "(larger electrogadgets)" <-- such as?
21:46:47 <Gregor> Vorpal: The former I have in a surface pocket for quick access. The latter ... who the hell has a wallet big enough for a passport?
21:47:03 <Vorpal> Gregor, fair enough, but who carries passport around everywhere
21:47:12 <Gregor> Vorpal: E-Reader, or sometimes nonelectrogadgets such as a book :P
21:47:14 <Vorpal> Gregor, also what do you do during hot summer days?
21:47:37 <Vorpal> Gregor, another thing: backpack. Tried it?
21:47:44 <Gregor> Vorpal: During hot summer days I take off the sleeves. My passport pocket is reserved for my passport because I so frequently travel, although I of course don't have my passport when I'm not at least out-of-state.
21:47:52 <Gregor> Backpacks suck. I hate them with hatred.
21:48:05 <Vorpal> Gregor, you need passport to travel between states in US?!
21:48:16 <elliott> You need a passport to turn into a goat in the US.
21:48:32 <Gregor> Vorpal: No, but it would not be the first time that I'd found myself unexpectedly going to Canada whilst on another trip.
21:49:08 <Vorpal> Gregor, okay, why do backpacks suck? They are good for carrying laptop in (if you have a pocket large enough to carry a 15" laptop in I will be impressed. And also worried about the uneven load.)
21:49:12 <elliott> Gregor: First you have a few drinks... and then you're walking and you're not sure where you are ... next thing you know, you wake up in Canada.
21:49:27 <elliott> You turn to look beside you, where in bed there lies a grizzly bear.
21:49:32 <elliott> And then you get mauled to death.
21:49:34 <elliott> Happens to me all the time!
21:49:46 <Vorpal> elliott, no, a mounty! (sp)
21:49:58 <elliott> Well, I gather there was a lot of mounting going on the previous night with that bear.

21:50:39 <Gregor> Vorpal: As small as you can fit a full-size keyboard onto.
21:50:52 <elliott> Which is why Gregor just bought an 11" MacBook Air.
21:50:52 <Vorpal> Gregor, without numpad I presume?
21:51:00 <Gregor> Vorpal: Without numpad.
21:51:06 <Gregor> elliott: It also has to be a legit laptop :P
21:51:08 <elliott> No, with numpad. You pull it out the side!
21:51:20 <Vorpal> Gregor, never felt a need for large screen area?
21:51:21 <Gregor> I have a 12" ... I think? Maybe 13" :P
21:51:33 <elliott> Gregor: I would argue the issue on this MacBook Air, but I have the 13", which you can actually pay more to get a decent laptop :P
21:51:41 <Vorpal> Gregor, so you would be happy with a 640x480 2" display?
21:51:54 <elliott> Don't need large != fine with tiny.
21:51:59 <Gregor> Vorpal: That is one crazy-high DPI. Strap that on a headgear and I'd love it :P
21:52:06 <Vorpal> elliott, well duh, I'm joking
21:52:34 <Gregor> My desktop had a 12" screen for ... good lord, years.
21:52:36 <Vorpal> nice google logo today
21:52:44 <Gregor> It finally died and I bought the smallest screen I could find, 19"
21:52:51 <Gregor> (Find on short notice that is)
21:53:13 <Vorpal> wait, the l should be lower case
21:53:27 <elliott> If not, Google would be celebrating 2010 at the LAST POSSIBLE MOMENT.
21:53:30 <elliott> Which would be hilarious, but no :P
21:53:43 <Gregor> WOOH 2010 YAAoh it's gone.
21:54:01 <Vorpal> elliott, their xmas logo was not recognisable as google IMO.

21:56:18 <elliott_> Kind of hard to google for, but I can't /find/ anything.
21:56:31 <elliott_> By "turns", I mean literally whole screen fill. Instantly.
21:56:44 <Vorpal> elliott_, at least in Sweden you will by law get at least n months of warranty (where n depends on type of product)
21:56:56 <elliott_> This is Apple, they don't care about no laws!
21:57:11 <Vorpal> elliott_, well they have to. Or they would get into legal problems.

21:57:29 <elliott_> Apple laughs in the face of legal problems!
21:57:38 <elliott_> But yeah probably there is a warranty.
21:57:44 <elliott_> I'll give it a week or so to see if it keeps happening though.
21:57:48 <elliott_> It may be an OS X bug, after all.
21:57:57 <elliott_> I wouldn't expect two different colours from a hardware bug like that.
21:58:08 <Vorpal> elliott_, could be pretty random
21:58:18 <Vorpal> elliott_, I mean, if it is something glitchy
21:58:55 <elliott_> I'll be installing Ubuntu soon anyway.
21:58:58 <elliott_> So I'll see if it happens there.
21:59:13 <elliott_> Having said that, reboots happen in like 5 seconds total, so I'm not complaining :P

22:00:20 <elliott_> I wonder how fast a modern computer with a good SSD can random-read some fragmented 8 gigs from disk into RAM.
22:00:30 <Vorpal> elliott_, btw, I suspect ubuntu will boot a bit slower than 5 seconds
22:00:41 <Vorpal> elliott_, I mean, apple can fine tune for that exact hardware
22:01:02 <Vorpal> and apple spent a lot of time on such things anyway
22:01:27 <elliott_> Vorpal: Well, OS X boots fast on anyhting.
22:01:33 <elliott_> Vorpal: But Ubuntu, as of 10.10, boots fast on anything.
22:01:41 <elliott_> Vorpal: It's not the OS, it's the SSD :-P
22:01:48 <elliott_> My iMac was 10x slower because of the disk churning.
22:02:10 <Vorpal> elliott_, is 10.10 much faster than 10.04?
22:02:20 <Vorpal> elliott_, 10.04 spends most time on my thinkpad in readahead
22:02:35 <elliott_> Vorpal: They spent a lot of time with 10.04 and 10.10 optimising the bootup.

22:10:13 * oerjan wonders if Vorpal could see that the google christmas logo had expandable pictures...
22:13:58 <oerjan> yes. but i thought maybe that was javascript so you didn't see it...
22:14:22 <Vorpal> oerjan, ah. What were they like
22:14:42 <oerjan> each of those pictures grew in size when you hovered over them
22:14:53 <oerjan> showing a larger scene
22:14:54 <Vorpal> oerjan, containing google logo somewhere?

22:15:41 <fizzie> Vorpal: Yet another hotel-visit balcony view panorama thing: http://zem.fi/~fis/P1080159-173.jpg
22:20:43 <fizzie> The... uh, it's fi:pilkkijΓ€, dudes-who-fish-on-the-ice... well, those people, were pretty persistent; they were pretty much all the day out there.
22:21:09 <Vorpal> fizzie, pilka or pika or something in Swedish I think. I'm not sure, the hobby doesn't really interest me
22:22:02 <fizzie> There are also three rather curious-looking ones from the hotel atrium: http://zem.fi/~fis/P1080216-235.jpg http://zem.fi/~fis/P1080242-260.jpg http://zem.fi/~fis/P1080277-288.jpg
22:22:41 <Vorpal> fizzie, for the first, what projection?
22:22:49 <Vorpal> fizzie, I assume it was less bendy?
22:23:02 <fizzie> Yes, you can see from the other that it is less bendy.
22:23:11 <fizzie> Fake-fisheye lens for the first one.
22:23:32 <Vorpal> fizzie, wait, they are the same? Very different white balance there
22:23:59 <Vorpal> fizzie, as for the third, were some of the pics blurry?
22:24:04 <Vorpal> (while other were very sharp)
22:24:21 <Vorpal> fizzie, nice pics though!
22:24:27 <fizzie> "Yes" to both. Shot freehand and in .jpg, so white-balance comes from camera settings, which I changed to be less yellow.
22:24:47 <Vorpal> fizzie, why not raw (or was this your phone?)
22:25:41 <fizzie> I'm not really sure why not; I guess mostly because it's a bit slower, and I had to take about four shots for each angle already, to get at least one not horribly blurry one at ISO 100. (Anything above that is horribly noisy on the camera.)
22:26:11 <Vorpal> fizzie, enfuse to get rid of noise?
22:26:22 <Vorpal> though without tripod that is doomed I guess
22:27:22 -!- poiuy_qwert has quit (Read error: Operation timed out).
22:27:46 <fizzie> There's also two mobile-phone stitchings I took on the way to the hotel: http://zem.fi/~fis/20101229_032-040.jpg http://zem.fi/~fis/20101229_045-048.jpg
22:28:17 -!- poiuy_qwert has joined.
22:29:00 <fizzie> Those are a bit stripy, because the default camera app doesn't do fixed white balance, and hugin's exposure-optimization doesn't seem to be able to fix it well.
22:29:08 <Vorpal> fizzie, oh I guess it is 2011 over there already? Happy new .fi year then
22:29:29 <fizzie> About 00:30 Jan 1st 2011 here, right. Thanks.
22:32:06 <Vorpal> fizzie, don't see any stripes in the second. And quite subtle in the first. Using my laptop though. Not the best colour reproduction in the world
22:32:59 <fizzie> The stripes aren't too bad in that since the lighting (overcast sky) was quite identical in all the shots, so the camera guesswork is probably rather similar in all the cases.
22:34:10 <Vorpal> fizzie, should be possible to get white balance in one place on the n900 then use the same for the rest of the shots
22:34:21 <Vorpal> fizzie, I mean, it is an advanced phone. Surely doable.
22:34:52 <fizzie> There's the third-party "fcam" app that can do raw and manual settings and all, but it's not quite as user-friendly as the default app.
22:35:05 <fizzie> For one thing, it doesn't auto-start when you open the camera cover, which is important out there in the cold. :p
22:35:25 <fizzie> Vorpal: I guess I could share the hotel-room photo(s) too, since it (they) turned out to be rather nice: http://zem.fi/~fis/P1080070-077_r.jpg + http://zem.fi/~fis/P1080096-108.jpg -- the first one in particular would not look that out of place in a hotel brochure or something, I think. (Well, discouting slight noisiness and such.)
22:37:37 <Sgeo> Comment by uploader of DS9 to YouTube: "@murphy3162 if i pretend all bad voyager episodes dont exist....then theresο»Ώ no series left."
22:37:37 <Vorpal> fizzie, also some visible seams in the first
22:37:54 <Vorpal> fizzie, (middle of door frame)
22:38:42 <Vorpal> fizzie, the mirror in the second one looks weird
22:39:28 <Vorpal> fizzie, oh it has bevelled edges?
22:39:30 <fizzie> It does. I'm not sure if the mirror is just faceted weirdly. (But there's also a visible seam near the roof/wall edge at one point.)
22:40:04 <Vorpal> leaving shortly for new year stuff here
22:40:10 <nooga> 20 minutes to midnight
22:41:24 <elliott_> There's an hour and forty minutes to go, you unwashed heathens.
22:41:59 -!- elliott_ has changed nick to elliott.
22:42:10 <elliott> I EXIST IN GMT MINUS 20 MINUTES
22:43:24 <nooga> why aren't you on some party anyway
22:43:51 <Vorpal> party. That would suck.
22:44:18 <fizzie> "This channel is all the party I can handle!"
22:44:32 <nooga> i have a norwegian speaking party at my flat
22:45:15 <Gregor> pikhq: Why are you not here?
22:45:33 <Sgeo> Why does no one ever ask me that?
22:45:39 <fizzie> Gregor: Maybe he's at some sort of a hip norwegian-speaking party.
22:45:40 <elliott> Sgeo: because we call those periods tranquil silence
22:45:46 <Sgeo> elliott, I'll protect you my friend
22:45:57 <elliott> Sgeo: Phantom_Hoover already referenced Little Mouse yesterday so stfu.
22:46:01 <elliott> Gregor: I'm practically a substitute for pikhq, what do you want to ask.
22:46:12 <fizzie> elliott: "Tastes good, less filling"?
22:46:40 <nooga> we have some drinks, salad, champagne and chillout music from this computer
22:46:41 <Gregor> elliott: Did you ever find a good deinterlacing filter in mplayer?
22:46:58 <elliott> Gregor: He found a gigantic combination of filters that worked on hideous, hideous inputs :-P
22:47:19 <elliott> Gregor: I suspect that he would use something rather more conservative for, you know, _regular_ interlaced stuff.
22:47:21 <nooga> i think it's my duty to be on this # now
22:48:09 <nooga> oh, btw. i've recently read Wouter's PhD thesis
22:48:40 <nooga> it's really inspiring but graphical Aardappel is bad
22:51:21 <elliott> nooga: aardappel is kinda fun though
22:51:50 <elliott> it's not good but it is fun
22:52:02 <nooga> \but not this graphical notation
22:52:21 <nooga> i tried to read aardappel qsort in a graphical form
22:52:44 <nooga> and it was really hard compared to the textual version introdouced in the paper
22:52:55 <elliott> nooga: oh by graphical you mean the list visualiation things?
22:53:11 <nooga> textual form is nice
22:54:23 <elliott> nooga: you mean like, linear? 1 dimensional?
22:54:27 <elliott> that defeats the point of aardappel
23:00:05 <elliott> nooga is going to get really, really drunk really, really quickly.
23:22:48 <Vorpal> happy new year + 22 minutes everyone!
23:23:35 <Vorpal> <Sgeo> elliott, I'll protect you my friend <elliott> Sgeo: Phantom_Hoover already referenced Little Mouse yesterday so stfu. <-- why the sudden rise in number of references to it?
23:24:07 <Vorpal> Phantom_Hoover, wait. that was 2012.
23:25:08 <Vorpal> elliott, ah. Even for Maya yes
23:25:34 <elliott> And what have they ever done for us?
23:25:36 <Vorpal> Phantom_Hoover, did they? In what way?

23:43:46 <Gregor> Does anybody know the conditions under which YouTube releases the time limit for particular accounts?
23:44:10 <elliott> Gregor: "Used to be a director's account", I think :-P
23:44:26 <Gregor> I'm not a director. I don't even know what that means.
23:44:56 <elliott> Gregor: Then I think you are fucked.
23:45:17 <Gregor> elliott: In the good way?

23:45:32 <elliott> Gregor: YouTube does not run on logic.
23:45:50 <Gregor> Time to write a friggin' epic 2 hour piano piece.
23:46:29 <elliott> Gregor: Dude... play some Merzbow. On piano.
23:46:50 <elliott> I am not sure how this amazing idea did not come to me much sooner.
23:47:55 <elliott> Gregor: Is that a "YES I WILL DO THAT".
23:48:19 * Gregor tries his hardest to force as much sarcasm as possible across the webertubes.
23:48:46 <elliott> Gregor: You can't deny that you'd watch two hours of Merzpiano on YouTube.
23:48:50 <elliott> SO MAKE EVERYONE ELSE'S DREAM COME TRUE

23:57:17 <elliott> GolfScript is pretty good though.
