Each of those streams, in turn, can be split. And so on - so we can have a binary tree of bit streams, all of which can fit in the Machine's memory without interfering with one another. 01:43:12 FWIW that doesn't lead to a binary stream, it leads to each bitstream having one bit at a finite index. 01:43:19 *binary tree 01:46:55 -!- adu has quit (Quit: adu). 01:59:18 I think he possibly meant a binary tree of bits 01:59:39 but he came up with a better system anyway 02:01:16 http://esolangs.org/wiki/V 02:02:52 -!- Canaimero-15d7 has joined. 02:03:17 -!- Patashu has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 02:03:40 -!- Patashu has joined. 02:04:27 -!- itidus21 has joined. 02:07:01 -!- Canaimero-15d7 has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 02:07:24 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 02:19:36 Hmm... I've had another language idea, and after a little investigation I've realised that the only way to make loops is with quines 02:20:01 it's a stack-based language, and instead of an "output" instruction it has an "append to the program" instruction 02:20:08 execution ceases when you run out of program 02:20:28 every instruction is a single character 02:20:34 but not every character is an instruction 02:20:39 those that aren't, get output 02:20:56 We can't say "Hello World" because that's got two 'o's and a 'd' in, both of which are instructions 02:21:13 but a similar program (and quine!) is: 'Sup, Earth 02:21:45 I'm now trying to write the nearest I can get to a cat program, which is one that reads in integers and writes out their binary expansions 02:22:33 so far I've got: ?`O`*`7`4`D`*`7`4`K`*`7`4`+`1`!`/`2`o`+`+`1`*`9`8`*`6`&`1`d74*D74*O 02:22:54 where "`x" is shorthand for "an arithmetic expression producing the ASCII value of 'x'" 02:26:33 Want to write an IF statement?

But anyway. 05:33:46 despite my most intense longing 05:33:51 I am not a yes emulator 05:34:06 because I feel discomfort in the task. 05:34:18 whereas a true yes emulator is without concern. 05:35:01 i don't think it's possible to specify concerns 05:35:21 your a concern. 05:36:08 it's a turing test kind of thing 05:36:42 I wish CPAN didn't test things. 05:36:50 it takes so long. :( 05:38:24 But then you would be UNCERTAIN. 05:38:33 i mean, it's not for me to say if caged chickens suffer waiting for me to eat them 05:39:07 the chicken parts of my brain understand chicken-suffering 05:39:10 and say that they do. 05:39:10 nor whether the errand boy's day is ruined by running my errands 05:40:01 that's a more less certain situation. 05:40:05 yes, more less. 05:40:13 it has more of less. 05:40:29 well, i try to be kind to the people who sort recyclables.. 05:40:41 how is that even related to the last thing you said. 05:41:08 its possible to make a real mess of what you put in the recycling bin 05:41:18 and the person who later has to sort it in a factory has to deal with the mess 05:41:37 factories are places where people make good money (?????????) 05:41:41 * kallisti says something 05:41:53 * kallisti says something else with topics loosely derived from the last thing said. 05:41:56 * kallisti ?????

Top Level Heading) Stuff under that heading) 13:10:01 nortti: yes 13:10:08 only problem: how to use ( and ) 13:10:14 \( and \) 13:10:28 oh. and \ is \\ ? 13:10:30 (admittedly it can be a pain in the ass remembering to use them) 13:10:32 yes 13:11:06 maybe if we use m exspressions... 13:11:12 ? 13:11:23 you don't know mexprs? 13:11:36 they are part of lisp history 13:12:46 I vaguely recalled them but couldn't remember much about them 13:12:56 having looked them up, I realise why 13:13:21 - they're pointless 13:13:58 using sexprs with { and } in place of ( and ) would be easier in web pages 13:14:07 yeah, that's a good idea 13:14:17 or even < and >, because people are used to escaping those 13:14:36 I'll f 13:14:51 *go to write my own harkup language 13:16:14 All the world's a LispM,nAnd all the men and women merely conses:nThey have their cdrs and their cars;nAnd one man in his time evals many sexprs,nHis acts being seven lists. 13:16:30 :P 13:22:30 -!- Phantom__Hoover has joined. 13:25:18 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds). 13:28:55 Blog's not a word? 13:29:09 HERETIC! 13:29:11 I don't consider it one. 13:29:36 It's just so /ugly/, in phonotactic terms. 13:29:52 whar about phlog? 13:30:18 yeuch! 13:30:25 that's reminiscent of phlogiston 13:30:50 phlog=gopher blog 13:31:04 still yeuch! 13:31:08 although props for gophering 13:41:30 -!- DHeadshot has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds). 13:42:11 -!- ogrom has joined. 13:44:07 -!- Guest8000 has quit (Quit: I found 1 in /dev/zero). 14:05:20 -!- Vorpal has quit (Quit: ZNC - http://znc.sourceforge.net). 14:14:57 -!- azaq23 has joined. 14:15:04 -!- azaq23 has quit (Max SendQ exceeded). 14:17:00 -!- azaq23 has joined. 14:24:02 ok. now I have written specs of my own s-expr based markup language 14:26:42 Now write a parser using parsec for it. 14:27:07 -!- copumpkin has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 14:27:37 nah.

Phew. 22:55:52 Everything is Apache these days. 22:56:04 seems it has been an apache project since 2009 though 22:56:08 They even have a web server. 22:56:09 how did I not notice that... 23:12:11 -!- itidus20 has changed nick to itidus21. 23:12:50 I suddenly have a strange urge to write a compiler. 23:14:51 kallisti_: write one then 23:15:01 not sure what to compile, or what to compile it to. 23:16:35 -!- itidus20 has joined. 23:16:37 kallisti_: compile Befunge-93 to Eniuq 23:17:01 and write the compiler in Perl 23:17:20 *without* using a single regex, bwahahaha 23:17:31 impossible 23:17:55 -!- kallisti_ has changed nick to kallisti. 23:18:18 or compile Awk to Piet 23:18:30 * soundnfury loves Awk 23:18:43 how about... 23:18:55 brainfuck to javascript. 23:19:18 -!- itidus21 has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds). 23:19:21 kallisti, too easy 23:19:27 kallisti, unless it heavily optimises 23:19:33 yes, well, I don't have experience with compilers 23:19:36 and that's the idea. 23:19:38 can it break esotope-bfc is the question then 23:19:50 which is a pretty good brainfuck->C compiler 23:19:51 actually befunge-93 could be more interesting. 23:20:03 kallisti, befunge is self modifying, you can't compile it 23:20:32 uh, yes you can. 23:20:41 you can do threaded code sure, but you need to be able to recompile it on the fly 23:21:06 so you either need threaded code or you need a JIT 23:21:17 fizzie, was working on a befunge-98 JIT 23:21:33 -!- itidus20 has changed nick to itidus21. 23:22:04 I'd imagine javascript is dynamic enough to make modification not a huge issue. 23:22:11 but still an issue. 23:22:27 I don't think you can treat code as data in javascript 23:22:48 oh wait you can 23:22:51 of course. 23:22:52 JS has an eval, doesn't it? 23:22:55 yes 23:23:02 and first-class functions. 23:23:05 it's just Strongly Discouraged by security peoples 23:25:31 an inline JS extension could be fun. 23:25:34 befunge in a browser. 23:25:42 manipulate the DOM in your fungespace! 23:25:51 * kallisti will need to work on his catchphrases. 23:26:46 Could AFAX be this year's hottest web technology? 23:27:00 kallisti, you mean as a fingerprint for befunge-98? 23:27:38 possibly. I don't know how that works exactly 23:28:08 looks to be what I'm talking about 23:28:13 assign a symbol to some foreign code. 23:29:12 hm? 23:30:08 kallisti, well if you need any help with Befunge-98 implementation (which is tricky, the standard is ambiguous in several places!) I suggest you check out Deewiant's test suite Mycology. It documents the standard interpretation of Befunge-98 pretty much. 23:30:21 http://users.tkk.fi/~mniemenm/befunge/mycology.html 23:30:44 kallisti, there is a befunge-93 part of that test suite too 23:30:52 so even in befunge-93 you can use that 23:31:01 just cut out the first 25x80 23:31:09 that makes up the befunge-93 part 23:31:21 (I suggest using block selection mode in your editor) 23:32:04 ha. modular programming in befunge. 23:32:26 Well if the standard is ambiguous you might as well make an ambiguous implementation 23:32:35 Undefined behavior where-ever the standard calls for it! 23:32:40 * kallisti will need to work on his catchphrases. <-- "the befunge of DOM", hth 23:32:51 Lumpio-, well there are also some cases where the other behaviours doesn't work 23:33:07 also what should I call this? FungeScript? CoffeeFunge? FungeCoffee? 23:33:10 Lumpio-, also the standard doesn't completely work 23:33:19 the behaviour wrt t is broken 23:33:36 basically you can't avoid forkbombing a standard implementation 23:33:43 so no one implements it like that 23:34:24 ha. modular programming in befunge. <-- the fingerprint testing is kind of modular actually 23:34:32 kallisti: Hemileia, hth 23:34:48 oerjan, is that a species of fungus? 23:34:57 Hemileia vastatrix is a fungus of the order Uredinales that causes coffee rust, a disease that is devastating to coffee 23:34:58 but of course 23:35:00 oerjan, also what do you mean by "hth"? 23:35:07 "hope this helps" 23:35:10 ah 23:35:28 kallisti, I went for the boring name for my implementation: "cfunge" since it was written in C 23:35:35 I also have efunge, written in Erlang 23:35:57 how would fingerprints work with a compiler? seems difficult. 23:36:03 yes it would be 23:36:11 kallisti, remember you need a stack per letter 23:36:42 example: fingerprint AAAA defines A B and C. fingerprint BBBB defines B C and D 23:36:53 then if you load A and unload B. What do you get? 23:37:09 Turns out the A semantic from AAAA remains loaded 23:37:19 ah 23:37:53 kallisti, so basically unloading a fingerprint just pops one function pointer off the stack of each letter that it defines. 23:38:02 it seems odd to restrict fingerprints to A-Z 23:38:07 instead of say, Unicode. 23:38:17 kallisti, well, there weren't any printable ASCII characters left over 23:38:26 Vorpal: I feel like "stack" is the wrong word here. 23:38:44 kallisti, well, I implement it in C as each letter having a stack of function pointers 23:38:51 well, an array each, that is malloced 23:39:01 linked list in erlang obviously 23:39:10 ah I guess the ( ) make it work like a stack, nevermind 23:39:17 I thought you could unload fingerprints arbitrarily. 23:39:40 Vorpal: um what happens if you load AAAA, load BBBB, then unload AAAA? 23:40:14 or is that impossible 23:40:20 it is possible 23:40:24 let me work out what happens 23:41:10 oerjan, lets see.. you get: A: empty, B: AAAA semantics, C: AAAA semantics, D: BBBB semantics 23:41:18 as far as I can see 23:41:42 ...and this is according to spec? :P 23:42:16 oerjan, the spec is not very clear. But there was a lot of discussion (see logs for this channel, whenever that discussion was). There are several possible interpretations. 23:42:24 but it is the one mycology expects 23:42:53 oerjan, you could make a case for about 5 different interpretations as well 23:43:06 this is however common practise. 23:43:16 for a start, you could make a case for not keeping around pointers to unloaded fingerprints 23:43:29 oerjan, ah but you could load a fingerprint multiple times 23:43:39 what then? 23:44:36 it looks to me like each load saves the old semantics of the operation on the stack. 23:44:44 and an unload just pops back 23:44:54 CCBI and cfunge both implements it as loading a fingerprint pushing a set of function pointers onto a set of stacks. And unloading just popping whatever is on top (even if it is for a different fingerprint) 23:45:00 to whatever the old semantic-set was. 23:45:38 so it looks to me like it should be a stack of linked lists of function pointers 23:45:43 rather than a stack of function pointers. 23:45:47 -!- copumpkin has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 23:45:58 or null-terminated arrays or something 23:46:04 whatever sequence you want to use. 23:46:28 -!- copumpkin has joined. 23:46:43 kallisti, uh? stack of linked lists? 23:46:46 I don't get it 23:46:51 each letter has a separate stack 23:46:56 yes\ 23:46:58 (that is how I implement it) 23:48:05 ah nevermind 23:48:21 kallisti, http://sprunge.us/ePBg?c 23:48:23 it looks as though loading a new semantic onto a letter overwrites the previous. 23:48:45 I thought they would co-exist 23:48:53 on one letter 23:48:58 oh I forgot this at the start: 23:48:59 typedef void (*fingerprintOpcode)(struct s_instructionPointer * ip); 23:49:55 I'd probably use a single stack of arrays 23:50:12 with an index for each letter 23:50:26 -!- glogbackup has joined. 23:50:31 kallisti, anyway you might not want to read the cfunge source code in general. I kind of went for it being the fastest implementation at the time (and it was until CCBI2). So there are some stupid optimisations XD 23:50:50 so then a save makes a copy of the array, binds the new semantics to their respective indices in the new array, and pushes that to the stack. 23:51:15 then a restore is just a pop. 23:51:19 I should write an implementation for android 23:51:22 hm 23:51:32 maybe? 23:51:47 nah I don't like java that much, and the NDK looks painful 23:51:56 use Scala 23:51:59 and cfunge wouldn't work under a libc like the one on android 23:52:03 kallisti, eh, nah 23:52:07 I would have to learn scala 23:52:09 Clojure? 23:52:16 don't know clojure either 23:52:16 Jython? :P 23:52:19 ouch 23:52:23 stop the pain! :P 23:52:38 I'm not going for /slowest/ interpreter 23:52:55 hm I'm interested in what feeding cfunge into an android toolchain would do now... 23:53:10 I think I'll start with a javascript befunge-98 interpreter. 23:53:15 since that will be a simpler task 23:53:19 kallisti, 93 you mean? 23:53:19 and might prove useful for a compiler. 23:53:22 no 23:53:26 98 is not simple :P 23:53:29 that's fine. 23:53:37 kallisti, try implementing k for example 23:54:07 kallisti, read the spec and tell me what 8::::kkj would do 23:54:19 that is when traveling left to right 23:54:29 (delta 1,0) 23:54:48 I know cfunge doesn't work on windows. And even getting it to work under cygwin is apparently tricky, requiring disabling some fingerprints 23:55:45 I even had trouble getting it to work on openbsd. Yet it doesn't require anything except C99 and some POSIX-2001 bits 23:55:49 kallisti, ^ 23:56:26 it requires some esoteric bits of those however 23:56:38 well I think it will be easier to write in JS than in C. 23:56:42 sure 23:56:51 you don't have to deal with memory management 23:56:51 :P 23:56:59 C is not an easy language to write in 23:57:05 you can implement fingerprints as functions on the grid. 23:57:11 I have my own memory pool implementation 23:57:32 kallisti, and you probably get associative arrays :P 23:57:35 lucky bastard :P 23:57:38 of course. 23:57:47 I had to roll my own 23:58:05 kallisti, but you can't do what my erlang implementation can. It can run on multiple computers 23:58:06 if I were going to go for an efficient befunge compiler I'd probably use C++ 23:58:07 distributed 23:58:35 (I didn't finish the fingerprint for accessing that functionality, some parts work) 23:59:12 it has a ATHR (async threads, since the befunge-98 threads created by t run in lock step, I wanted truly async threads) 23:59:38 btw, cfunge can do 64-bit cells. Forgot if it does that by default. And efunge does bignum cells.
