01:32:50 <zzo38> Finally, I figured out, and wrote down, my and my brother's character's age.
01:33:27 <zzo38> They said, you are enslaved a while and didn't keep track; but I could use the Object Reading spell to figure out the age of anyone if I have an object they own.
01:33:40 <zzo38> But even then, we couldn't do it until we know the age categories for the creatures, which I have done.
01:34:23 <zzo38> The dungeons master told me to calculate 60% of middle age, so I did that.

07:47:51 <kallisti> does a vague idea that seems pretty accurate count? I know what it means in the context of Haskell, but I don't understand where the name comes from.
07:48:20 <oerjan> from topology, iirc
07:48:25 <kallisti> yes I know that much.
07:49:27 <oerjan> i think the FP (?) language may have been involved, too
07:49:47 <oerjan> basically you are free to name functions, but not their arguments
07:50:43 <oerjan> formal arguments, that is.  you're of course allowed to pass something named as an argument.
07:50:59 <kallisti> yes which is why I say a free variable that's not a function is, in some sense, not pointfree. Perhaps the code I quoted is pointfree but it's written using the arguments of the function that it's defined within.

16:46:46 <Ngevd> Hello kallisti
16:47:50 <kallisti> hi
16:48:02 <kallisti> can you fix my horrible chebyshev calculating thingy?
16:48:40 <kallisti> I actually don't even know if it works I haven't tested any of this because I am really not even sure how to test Haskell aside from probably using one of those testy things that people use but I don't know how to use those either.
16:49:47 <Ngevd> Link?
16:50:02 <kallisti> http://sprunge.us/UgdA
16:50:07 <kallisti> search chebyshev
16:50:13 <kallisti> ugda
16:50:20 <kallisti> dialect of agda good 
16:51:42 <kallisti> actually why don't I just generate an infinite list.
16:53:41 <kallisti> Ngevd: basically I just noted that you can step out N-1 times at both right angles from every cardinal point to get all the points that are N distance away
16:54:04 <kallisti> ....if that makes any sense
16:54:41 <kallisti> then you just tack the diagonals on.
16:55:26 <kallisti> I'm pretty much 99.99999999...% sure that there's a better way that doesn't involve mutability.
16:55:59 <Ngevd> Couldn't you do coord -> Int -> [coord]?
16:56:25 <kallisti> that's basically what I'm doing
16:56:26 -!- Sandelkoenig has joined.
16:56:48 <kallisti> Move is a coordinate + direction, I just kept them together because it's simple.
16:57:16 <kallisti> also it's how my step function works.
16:57:28 <kallisti> I plug this thing into my step function which wants Moves
16:57:36 <kallisti> because direction is important on that one.
16:59:54 <kallisti> Ngevd: oh, also
17:00:09 <kallisti> the way this algorithm works is it pairs the coordinate of the input to every cardinal direction
17:00:13 <kallisti> and then advances that way
17:00:17 <kallisti> so it could be like...
17:00:21 <kallisti> Move -> [m Move]
17:00:25 <kallisti> er
17:00:30 <kallisti> Coord -> [m Move]
17:00:56 <Ngevd> What's the MonadPlus for?
17:01:20 <kallisti> MonadPlus is a subclass of MonadLogic
17:01:34 <kallisti> it's the only "concatenation" I know of.
17:03:17 <kallisti> so to "concatenate" the results of all of these different steps I use msum and mplus
17:04:33 <kallisti> though maybe I actually want >>
17:04:35 <kallisti> I'm not entirely sure.
17:04:40 <Ngevd> Can pieces move to their own location?
17:04:43 <kallisti> no
17:04:51 <kallisti> well...
17:04:58 <kallisti> yes
17:05:06 <kallisti> hmmmmmmm
17:05:20 <kallisti> the directional pieces are supposed to be able to shift direction as a turn.
17:05:26 <kallisti> but this is awfully similar  to a "do nothing"
17:07:09 <kallisti> no pretty sure I want mplus
17:07:14 <kallisti> >> would not concatenate lists
17:07:20 <kallisti> and I'm pretty sure LogicT is based on a list.
17:07:53 <kallisti> I think I'll go read that paper associated with LogicT so I can figure out wtf I'm doing. :P
17:09:35 <kallisti> so for all the directional pieces
17:09:39 <kallisti> I'll just add a coord : 
17:09:42 <kallisti> to their movesets
17:11:00 <kallisti> I think I'm worrying too much
17:11:12 <kallisti> "oh no it's different from chess" probably doesn't indicate anything too flawed.
17:11:44 <kallisti> Ngevd: is any of this code legible?
17:11:49 <kallisti> I'm not sure why I decided to take this route honestly.
17:11:51 <Ngevd> Not really
17:11:56 <Ngevd> I'm not that great at Haskell
17:12:02 <kallisti> I guess because there's a lot of repetitive tasks to do
17:12:07 <kallisti> so I just make this generalized board walker thing
17:12:54 <kallisti> stepWith (followPortal `thenRule` unlessVisited)
17:13:19 <kallisti> says that when you make a step on the board you want to follow portals, unless you've previously visited them.
17:13:36 <kallisti> stepWith also takes an actual step function, that defines what a step is
17:13:50 <kallisti> the simplest one is forwardStep, which is just a single step forward in whatever direction the move is.
17:14:08 <kallisti> er oops
17:14:18 <kallisti> step (followPortal `thenRule` unlessVisited)
17:14:20 <kallisti> not stepWith
17:14:25 <kallisti> step = stepWith forwardStep
17:15:24 <kallisti> then walkWith is just an iteration of stepWith, that stops whenever its step function or rule function returns an mzero
17:15:24 <oklopol> so it turns out ultimate sets can be RE^RE^RE-complete :o
17:15:30 <oklopol> even from the full shift
17:15:34 <oklopol> isn't that just insane
17:15:35 <kallisti> oklopol: ultimate sets? sounds like a game.
17:15:38 <kallisti> like ultimate frisbee.
17:15:40 <oklopol> :D
17:15:48 <kallisti> also I have no clue what any of that means, sorry.
17:15:54 <Ngevd> kallisti, do you have a chessboard, some matchsticks, some string, and a webcam?
17:15:56 -!- ais523|away has changed nick to ais523.
17:16:05 <oklopol> well the arithmetic hierarcy, just like all quantifier stuff, can be though of as a two-player game
17:16:06 <kallisti> Ngevd: I actually have absolutely none of those things.
17:16:26 <Ngevd> So, you can't play portal chess for realz.
17:16:39 <kallisti> I don't see why I need matchsticks
17:16:45 <kallisti> string would be useful but not strictly necessary.
17:16:50 <Ngevd> Marking direction
17:16:56 <oklopol> the ultimate set of a CA is the set of (infinite) configurations which are limit points of subsequences of orbits, everyone knows that.
17:16:57 <kallisti> basically just need a chessboard and contact with another interested human being.
17:16:59 <Ngevd> For cannons
17:17:03 <kallisti> Ngevd: ah yes. you could use markers for those.
17:17:08 <kallisti> cannons don't have directions actually.
17:17:14 <Ngevd> Do they not?
17:17:16 <oklopol> in the product topology obtained by having the discrete topology on the alphabet
17:17:16 <kallisti> nope
17:17:24 <Ngevd> Matchsticks are not necassary, then
17:17:30 <kallisti> well the queen now has a direction
17:17:36 <Ngevd> Oh yes
17:17:37 <kallisti> and I think most queen pieces are radially symmetrical.
17:17:44 <kallisti> even some bishops are actually.
17:17:55 <kallisti> not every bishop piece used by chessboards has "the notch"
17:18:03 <Ngevd> You could swap the king and queen?
17:18:51 <kallisti> does the king indicate a direction?
17:19:02 <Ngevd> Damn
17:19:05 <kallisti> it has a cross but that's ambiguous.
17:19:11 <Ngevd> They have rotational symmetry order 2
17:19:15 <kallisti> uh, yeah that.
17:19:32 <Ngevd> We need an odd number for unambiguity
17:19:33 <kallisti> not a problem
17:19:42 <kallisti> tape, marker, or any other indicator is not hard to find.
17:19:51 <Ngevd> True
17:20:04 <Ngevd> Do you have a chessboard?
17:20:13 <kallisti> actually the main reason I made the lens directionless intially was because queens don't have a direction
17:20:35 <kallisti> but I think requiring extra physical implements is worth simplifying the game. otherwise you have to kind of awkward explain what's going on.
17:20:58 <kallisti> I think with the cannons no declaration is required.
17:21:12 <kallisti> you just take a piece from the board
17:21:22 <kallisti> and then if your friend is like "wtf" then you explain. :P
17:21:37 <kallisti> IT'S LIKE THAT COMMERCIAL FOR CONNECT FOUR
17:21:47 <kallisti> but instead of like "I got you diagonally!"  "ohhhhh"
17:22:15 <kallisti> it's like "I redirected my cannon laser through this portal and then through this arrow and now your portal is dead"
17:23:58 <kallisti> also I don't think I'm going to do any kind of infinite loop teleporting piece weirdness
17:24:05 <kallisti> like where you can basically make a piece vanish for a while
17:24:22 <Ngevd> But that leaves ambiguity in the game
17:24:45 <kallisti> I'm... sure it can be explained away.
17:24:50 <kallisti> it's explained away in my implementation. :P
17:25:02 <kallisti> you just have to be fluent in Haskell to find it. 
17:25:57 <Ngevd> So what happens if you have two portals are around a piece pointing to eachother and one of them moves over the piece
17:26:01 <kallisti> I might special case it later.
17:26:22 <Ngevd> So, what happens?
17:26:51 <kallisti> well...
17:27:13 <kallisti> unless I decide to re-add the infinite loop capture thing (lol needs better name) then the move isn't valid.
17:27:45 <Ngevd> Also, #esoteric-chess-variants isn't used very much
17:27:53 <kallisti> a portal can't transport a piece if the piece has nowhere to go.
17:28:12 <Ngevd> How do arrows move again?
17:28:22 <kallisti> bishoply + any cardinal step
17:28:45 <kallisti> essentially they move like bishops except they can also sidestep into the other square color.
17:28:51 <Ngevd> Okay
17:29:10 <kallisti> should I allow friendly capture?
17:29:21 <kallisti> this has a number of consequences
17:29:38 <Ngevd> Only with cannons
17:29:56 <kallisti> a portal can land on a piece, and thus transport it somewhere, capturing a piece
17:29:59 <kallisti> because it is a valid move
17:30:11 <Ngevd> Hmm
17:30:13 <Ngevd> Yes
17:30:16 <kallisti> if friendly capture weren't possible then the move would be invalid because the capturing piece is friendly to the captured piece.
17:30:31 <kallisti> and that would violate my piece transport rule as described above.
17:31:03 <kallisti> note that
17:31:07 <kallisti> not many pieces can actually capture.
17:31:10 <kallisti> currently.
17:31:12 <kallisti> ...uh, two.
17:31:13 <kallisti> to be precise.
17:31:25 <Ngevd> King, pawn, Ccannon, dcannon
17:31:29 <kallisti> oh
17:31:32 <kallisti> well yes the cannons count as well
17:31:35 <kallisti> I meant capture-by-movement
17:31:42 <Ngevd> Arrow?
17:31:45 <kallisti> not currently no.
17:32:20 <kallisti> also...
17:32:26 <kallisti> things are kind of tricky with pawns.
17:32:42 <kallisti> so like.....
17:33:13 <kallisti> if you were to transport a pawn, then in order to capture a piece on the other side the pawn needs to be facing the correct direction coming out of the portal.
17:33:30 <kallisti> diagonally forward. forward being defined by the pawns color.
17:33:51 <kallisti> :)
17:34:00 <Ngevd> Ooh, tricky
17:34:04 <kallisti> I think that's perhaps unecessarily complicated.
17:34:09 <kallisti> with one n
17:34:30 <kallisti> I mean
17:34:31 <kallisti> it's not
17:34:33 <kallisti> that complicated
17:34:49 <kallisti> but, I am bad at explaining things. So I don't know if I can make these points clear in The Rules.
17:35:37 <kallisti> as long as I like... explicitly define how a pawn works
17:35:52 <kallisti> instead of, say, just saying something like "oh yeah pawns they're like chess"
17:38:09 <kallisti> then there's less ambiguity when I later say "a portal can only move to an occupied square if transporting the piece occupying that square is a valid move"
17:38:25 <kallisti> where I then should probably note how transporting works...
17:38:35 <Ngevd> Would you like a game of portalchess?
17:38:41 <kallisti> hm?
17:38:48 <kallisti> go on.
17:38:55 <Ngevd> Hang on
17:39:15 <kallisti> I think the best way to describe transportation is that the act of transporting a unit is essentially like moving it a single step in the direction of the output portal.
17:39:28 <kallisti> it has to be a valid move.
17:39:30 <kallisti> for that piece
17:39:35 <kallisti> to move in that direction
17:39:46 -!- ais523 has quit (Remote host closed the connection).
17:40:02 <kallisti> so for example, you can only transport a pawn if the output portal is facing the correct direction
17:40:09 <kallisti> otherwise the transportation is not a valid move.
17:40:38 <kallisti> is that a good rule? it seems overly complex. I could remove that restriction
17:41:20 <Ngevd> Yes
17:41:30 <kallisti> ...yes to my question I'm assuming.
17:41:52 <Ngevd> It is a good move
17:41:58 <kallisti> also
17:42:00 <kallisti> it means
17:42:00 <Ngevd> Rule
17:42:01 <kallisti> you can
17:42:01 <kallisti> chain
17:42:04 <kallisti> portal transports
17:42:27 <kallisti> by transporting a portal  that then transpots another piece. :>
17:42:29 <kallisti> oh god.
17:42:32 <kallisti> NO
17:42:35 <kallisti> MUST STOP MAKING THESE RULES
17:42:54 <kallisti> I will be unable to distinguish expected and unexpected behavior when testing my implementation.
17:43:10 <Ngevd> Well, do you want to be black or white?
17:44:41 <kallisti> uh how is this going to work.
17:44:53 <Ngevd> I have a chessboard
17:44:55 <kallisti> I'll be black because  that's what color I am in my fantasies. :>
17:45:18 <kallisti> (ha ha americans find race funny)
17:45:43 <Ngevd> I have no idea how to start
17:45:59 <Ngevd> King's knight's pawn forward 2
17:46:14 <Ngevd> s/kight/arrow/
17:47:00 <kallisti> this isn't going to work I AM BLIND
17:47:17 <Ngevd> Hmm
17:48:17 <kallisti> I should probably just add some code so that I can move pieces around without doing all the rule calculations
17:48:24 <kallisti> I don't know.
17:48:32 <Ngevd> Or I could Livestream my board
17:49:39 <kallisti> b7 to b6 
17:50:10 <kallisti> (queen's side knight's pawn forward 1)
17:50:36 <kallisti> uh...
17:50:37 <kallisti> wait
17:50:37 <Ngevd>  I shoot your dcannon with my dcannon
17:50:41 <kallisti> wat?
17:50:47 <kallisti> oh
17:50:55 -!- Klisz has joined.
17:50:57 <kallisti> I thought you said king's pawn

17:52:44 <Ngevd> Just do your move again
17:53:05 <kallisti> f8 to e5 facing southwest
17:53:44 <Ngevd> queenside portal's pawn 1 forward
17:54:55 <Ngevd> How do lenses move?
17:54:58 <kallisti> queens
17:55:01 <kallisti> can't capture currently
17:55:53 <Ngevd> c2c3
17:55:59 <kallisti> right
17:56:14 <kallisti> c1c2 facing south
17:56:18 <kallisti> I'll let you figure out what happens.
17:56:32 <kallisti> er
17:56:32 <kallisti> hm
17:56:39 <kallisti> technically I think I just broke a rule. :P
17:56:53 <Ngevd> That was a silly rule
17:57:09 <kallisti> yes but I don't know how to explain that behavior much better.
17:57:17 <Ngevd> Just play
17:57:17 <kallisti> I guess pawns are a special case.
17:57:22 <kallisti> I did. :P
17:57:31 <Ngevd> b1 e4
17:57:36 <Ngevd> North
17:58:58 <kallisti> e5 facing south
17:59:43 <kallisti> ....it's getting hard to remember everything.
18:00:15 <Ngevd> c3 d4
18:00:33 <kallisti> huh?
18:00:55 <Ngevd> I lost track of it
18:00:58 <kallisti> that's a... pawn right.
18:01:01 <Ngevd> Yes
18:01:05 <Ngevd> That took a pawn?
18:01:18 <kallisti> oh no the pawn should be at like....
18:01:26 <kallisti> oh
18:01:28 <kallisti> yes d4 :P
18:02:10 <Ngevd> Your turn
18:02:11 <Ngevd> :)
18:02:29 <kallisti> hold on while I use my feeble monkey brain to reprocess the entire state of the game repeatedly until I have some sense of what's going on.
18:04:42 <kallisti> e5e4 facing southeast
18:05:31 <kallisti> note that currently there is no overcomplicated direction reorienting
18:05:47 <kallisti> pieces maintain an absolute direction until the player changes it as part of their turn.
18:06:30 <kallisti> uh can I have like... a picture of the board? or something. :P
18:07:43 <Ngevd> C6c5 facing south
18:08:41 <Ngevd> And no
18:08:46 <kallisti> ...
18:08:55 <kallisti> fine I'll just be awesome while completely blind.
18:09:13 <kallisti> b7b6
18:11:11 <Ngevd> How do cannons move?
18:11:16 <kallisti> kingly
18:11:28 <kallisti> they're kind of a glass cannon. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA 
18:12:35 <Ngevd> c5 facing NE

18:15:51 <kallisti> lol
18:15:55 <kallisti> bad idea what am I even doing.
18:16:59 <kallisti> actually no that's not a bad idea.

20:58:14 <fizzie> Also I wanted something that's tangentially related to the real world, so they can "relate", but couldn't invent anything.
20:58:19 <fizzie> IRC is obvsly the next best thing.
20:58:43 <fizzie> Anyway, I've "anonymized" this by replacing names with numbers, no worries.
20:59:56 <fizzie> http://users.ics.tkk.fi/htkallas/esodemo.pdf if you want to try your luck at deanonymization based on the one (1) example comment I've included of each person by means of "shuf -n 1".
21:00:01 <kallisti> we're all just numbers anyway, man
21:00:05 <fizzie> Uh... use of grep will be considered cheating, though.
21:00:38 <kallisti> I said none of those things.
21:01:00 <fizzie> That is the true; I took the ten most linesome nicks over all my own logs.

21:02:01 <oklopol> am i one of those?
21:02:04 <fizzie> Also disregard the very last slide, it has nothing to do with anything.
21:02:09 <fizzie> oklopol: You're one of the numbers, yes.
21:02:14 <kallisti> several of the quotes sound elliott-esque
21:02:16 <oklopol> i mean in example comments
21:02:25 <fizzie> oklopol: You're the 1208.
21:02:36 <oklopol> that's what i figured, but wasn't sure
21:02:36 <fizzie> "so, the codomain is the domain of the cofunction
21:02:42 <fizzie> That's what you have said, apparently.

21:03:10 <fizzie> oerjan's copyright is also there.
21:03:25 <fizzie> Ngevd: Well, half of them are made of two people, thanks to those serial nick-changers.
21:03:36 <kallisti> 1682 is oerjan maybe?
21:03:45 <fizzie> kallisti: Sadly, no.
21:04:33 <fizzie> I'm probably not revealing any huge secrets if I reveal that all the three red ones (in the table) are instances of elliott, and the two blue ones are Vorpals.
21:06:35 <kallisti> it was a secret to me. :P
21:06:42 <Ngevd> fizzie... serial nick changers!? I'm one of them!
21:07:09 * kallisti is opposite of that.
21:07:14 <kallisti> except for two large nick changes.
21:07:34 <Ngevd> Ngevd, Taneb, Taneb|Hovercraft, Taneb|Kindle...
21:07:36 <kallisti> in revulsion of my past self's naming aesthetics.
21:07:49 <Ngevd> What were you before CakeProphet?
21:08:03 * oerjan isn't sure what he said but he sort of hopes it was 889
21:09:09 <fizzie> oerjan: You are: correct.

21:12:20 <ais523> did you not at least check to ensure none of them lived in Hexham first?
21:12:43 * kallisti imagines the commute time from Hexham to fizzie's class
21:12:47 <fizzie> Not yet, but see above: I'm using some #esoteric logs as data in this probabilistic-models demo I have in lieu of actual exercises for the first session.
21:12:50 <kallisti> unless it's an online thing.
21:13:11 <ais523> was 1319 me?

21:14:03 <ais523> hmm, it's not just the word INTERCAL, but the context it's in

21:14:22 <ais523> wow, that's not the answer I was expecting
21:14:53 <fizzie> 'shuf' got me quite good examples, though I had to reroll a couple when they had "foo: ..." style attribution names in front.
21:15:16 <fizzie> ais523: Actually your initial random sample was too long to fit in the slide, horizontally speaking.
21:15:34 <ais523> heh, do I have a tendency to make unusually long comments?
21:15:59 <fizzie> It wasn't maybe so unusually long, it's more that the slide-font is awfully big.
21:16:05 <fizzie> It was "I use always-on-top a lot for watching people play NetHack in a corner of the screen while doing other things, too".
21:16:30 <fizzie> (I think I did some statistic plots on line length a while ago, though.)
21:16:32 <ais523> that seems like something I would say
21:20:54 <fizzie> Averange line lengths for the same 10 nicks: http://p.zem.fi/nhrv
21:20:59 <fizzie> s/range/rage/
21:21:38 <fizzie> Seems that it's meself that's the odd one out, really. Also I think I need to say something fluffy and needless here in order to not to slide down in the statistics. Oh, this is going to be annoying to keep up.
21:25:38 <fizzie> And the same thing but top-50 and based on post-2010-01-01 data only so that currently active people don't feel left out: http://p.zem.fi/avn8

21:29:46 <oklopol> but ehird and alise are right next to each other :D

21:32:16 <ais523> CakeProphet = kallisti? I never realised
21:32:38 <fizzie> I was just going by what Ngevd said up there.
21:32:45 <kallisti> oh yes I thought everyone knew by now.
21:33:10 <fizzie> I suppose the hostname cloak is a bit confirmationary, though.

22:38:19 * Phantom_Hoover notes that the Finnish lyrics to Ievan Polkka take up about twice the space of the English ones in those subtitles.
22:38:36 <Phantom_Hoover> It's true: Finnish is just English with all the letters doubled.
22:41:26 <oklopol> also english used to have a dot on top of vowels but we took all of them delicious dotties for ourselves.
22:41:36 <fizzie> That video link up there has both English and Finnish lyrics in the description bit; from a quick glance, they'd seem to take about the same amount of letters.
22:42:27 <fizzie> If anything, the English versions seem wider.
22:42:28 <Phantom_Hoover> fizzie, yes, shortly after I resumed watching, the Finnish lyrics became about half as long as the English ones.
22:42:40 <Phantom_Hoover> Banach-Tarski Finnish.
