03:37:52 <pikhq> Spiffy. I should totally set myself up with a GPS clock sometime.
03:38:09 <pikhq> I must be a weirdo: I actually care about having accurate time.
03:38:40 <ion> Also, everyone with an NTP server, please join the NTP pool. :-) http://www.pool.ntp.org/
03:39:15 <pikhq> Sadly, my system is not publicly accessible.
03:39:25 <pikhq> Aaaand not much of an NTP server.
03:39:37 <pikhq> Though it is currently a stratum... 3? time source.
03:39:58 <ion> That should be fine for the pool.
03:42:15 <pikhq> Yup, definitely a stratum 3 source.

07:08:13 <fizzie> I've been thinking maybe I should hook my old Garmin to this box for timekeeping, because it hasn't really gotten any use lately, what with there being GPS in the phone too.
07:09:07 <ion> Go for it (as long as it has a PPS output).
07:13:46 <fizzie> It hasn't generally been very indoor-use-capable, though. But I suppose I could always try it out.

17:51:30 <Sgeo__> I think I should learn to be more assertive.
17:51:53 <atriq> Sgeo__, why?
17:52:00 <Sgeo__> Although I think saying "And, do you own this chat? If not, why should I be silent?" counts as assertive
17:53:14 <Sgeo__> Although I said "No offense." afterwards
18:04:34 <Sgeo__> atriq, I feel like I'm pandering to someone who believes that, because her good friend made something, that thing is the be-all and end-all.
18:05:08 <Sgeo__> And that no one else in the large Facebook group should look at anything else, and I shouldn't talk about alternatives in the group
18:05:18 <atriq> Ooh, that's bad
18:05:32 <atriq> I had a dream that I was Facebook friends with kmc
18:06:03 <Sgeo__> " if that is not good enough for you to us then please do your own thing and stop posting about it in this chat"
18:06:57 <atriq> He was called Kenneth or Keagan (I can't quite remember) McConaugh (give or take spelling)
18:08:36 <itidus21> Sgeo__: so my gp got me to see psychologist who works in the same building. so the guy asks me whats the biggest thing you would like to change or fix or whatever (i forget exact words), and i said something similar to "<Sgeo__> I think I should learn to be more assertive."
18:09:13 <itidus21> whats my point? i understand where you're coming from
18:10:13 <itidus21> but, i am starting to think assertiveness is largely a self help fantasy
18:10:57 <itidus21> well after we talked for a while he recognized that i had anxiety problems
18:12:04 <itidus21> so what he wanted to do was teach me to make informed choices or something like that
18:12:06 <itidus21> blahhhhhh
18:13:33 <Sgeo__> I think she takes personal offense to even the slightest criticism of this thing
18:20:56 <itidus21> i am an extremely unassertive person. but i think the phrase is not as helpful as it purports to be

18:54:27 <Sgeo__> Bluh
18:54:35 <Sgeo__> How does New York law define "resident"?
18:57:47 <Sgeo__> As in, resident of a county
19:01:13 <fizzie> As far as voting is concerned, at least, you "have the right to choose either one [of your multiple 'homes'] as their residence for voting purposes, as long as they have legitimate, significant and continuing attachments to the one they choose".
19:01:37 <fizzie> (I came across this bit in a blog just the other day.)
19:01:56 <fizzie> (For other purposes, I suppose the standard might well be different.)
19:03:53 <Sgeo__> I'm concerned about voting
19:04:17 * Sgeo__ isn't sure about "continuing" at this point
19:04:28 <fizzie> Also I write things I'm sometimes reasonably sure I'm not even going to say, and then down-arrow to leave those in the input buffer, unsaid.
19:04:38 <Sgeo__> Wait, what if the home is technically uninhabitable at this point in time?
19:04:49 <Arc_Koen> "I haven't set foot in my parents' house for decades, but I feel attached to it"

20:02:08 <Sgeo__> Is it wrong to feel sad that someone who is a bit too easily offended on others' behalves defriended me?
20:03:01 <Arc_Koen> yes
20:03:05 <Arc_Koen> I mean no
20:03:21 <Arc_Koen> though that probably depends on what you mean by "defriended"
20:03:26 <atriq> Maybe! I don't know!
20:03:27 <atriq> Aaaah!
20:03:33 <atriq> Stop asking me these questions!
20:05:19 <oerjan> atriq: how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
20:05:47 <atriq> A woodchuck wouldn't chuck any wood because a woodchuck wouldn't chuck wood!
20:05:51 <Arc_Koen> I had a good friend with whom I went hiking on many occasions... last time we started together... and at some point we split and got home separately. that was more than three months ago and he won't talk to me... HE EVEN REFUSED TO DRINK A BEER I OFFERED which is probably the silliest thing ever to refuse!!
20:06:17 <atriq> And he's hanging out with all his teetotal friends
20:06:55 <Arc_Koen> so I was thinking maybe I should wait till christmas and buy him a present or something
20:07:08 <atriq> You could just buy him a present
20:07:20 <atriq> Wrap it up nice
20:07:23 <atriq> And when he asks why
20:07:28 <atriq> Say it's because you miss him
20:07:52 <Arc_Koen> weird thing is, I still see him every now and then at the local game of go club - he's someone who jokes a lot, and last time he made a lot of joke about the game I was in the middle of, so we laughed together, yet he still won't talk to me

20:27:38 <oerjan> RIDICULOUS
20:27:46 <atriq> Is it wrong to feel absolutely terrified because someone fancies you?
20:28:41 <itidus21> atriq: its actually surprisingly right
20:29:16 <itidus21> its one of those feelings normal people have
20:29:25 <atriq> Oh, that's relieving
20:29:28 <atriq> How do I make it stop
20:29:49 <itidus21> actually what the hell am i saying.. is the terror due to a lack of reciprocal feelings?
20:29:59 <atriq> Yes
20:30:04 <atriq> And no clue how to proceed
20:30:40 <oerjan> it's ok just find a good place to hide the body
20:32:45 <itidus21> atriq: i think that... my brain wants to think about legend of zelda.. but...
20:32:58 <itidus21> it's likely that she will get over you
20:33:11 <itidus21> she won't be as hurt by not having you as you anticipate
20:33:44 <itidus21> ahh so i say.. but in another chatroom i am in is a guy terrified by a female stalker
20:34:12 <atriq> Is he my future self?
20:35:29 <itidus21> this guy talking to some random female who joined chatroom and says "Well, as long as this isn't karissa in disguise."
20:36:11 <itidus21> but its not so much paranoia because she does indeed go there looking for him
20:38:55 <itidus21> no woman has ever truely fancied me. i don't know what it's like
20:40:47 <atriq> Imagine a female, English Gregor who is really creepy

21:02:58 <itidus21> atriq: its almost impossible to end up in a relationship with a woman without actually wanting it. so your actual fears are irrational
21:04:03 <Arc_Koen> hmmm are you sure of that?
21:04:10 <Arc_Koen> what about if your parents forced you to marry her
21:04:19 <itidus21> oh humm
21:04:36 <Arc_Koen> I'm not familiar with that kind of situation but I'm assuming you would have to get in some sort of relationship with her
21:04:59 <itidus21> yeah that would suck
21:05:30 <Arc_Koen> or what if she's blackmailing you
21:06:06 <Arc_Koen> OR WHAT IF YOU CAN'T ESCAPE BECAUSE THE FLOOR IS LAVA
21:06:44 <itidus21> hmmmmm.... ok ok .. logically it is possible to be forced into a relationship with a woman without wanting it
21:07:18 <Arc_Koen> that's not even unlikely - she could be your colleague
21:07:48 <Arc_Koen> well I don't know how close you need to be to be called "in a relationship", but if you have to spend 8 hours a day working with her...
21:07:48 <Phantom__Hoover> what, and you're vulcanologists
21:08:30 <Arc_Koen> Phantom__Hoover: problem is, she's probably not aware the floor is lava, so it'd be very hard for you to escape but very easy for her to follow you
21:08:50 <Phantom__Hoover> pretty shitty vulcanologist then
21:09:31 <Arc_Koen> and I ask you, WHO would want to be in a relationship with a girl who refuses to acknowledge that the floor is lava??
21:10:49 <oerjan> hey it'll be a short relationship, anyway
21:10:56 <Phantom__Hoover> not all of us demand vulcanology in a partner

21:12:37 <Toni_Funchal> is there someone to talk?
21:12:54 <oerjan> `welcome Toni_Funchal

21:20:44 <Arc_Koen> isn't there something called "constraint programming"? "constrained programming" sounds more like an oulipo thing
21:21:04 <Arc_Koen> (like making palindrome programs)
21:21:08 -!- monqy has joined.
21:21:54 <Arc_Koen> oerjan: Toni_Fuchal could have soon become an esolang enthusiast and prove eodermdrome tc within two monthes
21:22:15 <Arc_Koen> but no you had to be 0.1 second too late on the `welcome command!
21:22:19 <oerjan> i already proved eodermdrome tc, thank you very much
21:22:24 <Arc_Koen> oh
21:22:39 <Arc_Koen> well then who needs Toni_Fuchal
21:23:16 <oerjan> now we just need someone to implement it so the proof can be tested
21:23:33 <Arc_Koen> (btw, I knew that! I just momentarily forgot it!)
21:23:52 <oerjan> suuuuure
21:24:32 <oerjan> i was going to write something but the housemate started coughing
21:24:46 <Arc_Koen> I swear, that "A version including ascii drawing of relevant subgraphs" sentence sounds very very familiar
21:25:38 <Phantom__Hoover> perhaps you saw it last time you read the article
21:25:44 <oerjan> Arc_Koen, now accusing me of plagiarism!
21:26:15 <Arc_Koen> am not! please believe what Phantom__Hoover says
21:26:59 <Phantom__Hoover> always believe what Phantom__Hoover says
21:27:00 <Phantom__Hoover> give in
21:27:29 <oerjan> i'm sorry, but i cannot trust a known hatheist
21:27:42 <kmc> shachaf: nice
21:28:16 <Phantom__Hoover> oerjan, you can't prove a damn thing!
21:28:28 <nortti> oerjan: what is hatheist?
21:28:41 <Phantom__Hoover> ah, the hatheist
21:28:49 <Phantom__Hoover> my greatest work... never to be
21:29:42 <nortti> oerjan: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Hatheist lists two kinds of hatheists
21:30:33 <oerjan> nortti: this refers to neither, although it may be a subset of both
21:30:45 <nortti> ok
21:31:42 <Phantom__Hoover> the scene: it is a warm summer's day in scotland, although one obscured by cloud and the fact that it is september
21:32:05 <Phantom__Hoover> the pope is on a tour of the uk, and is passing through edinburgh for some reason
21:32:42 <Phantom__Hoover> a moment of gregorian fancy siezes me and i can think only of his hat, and how i long to have it for my own
21:32:49 <Phantom__Hoover> so begins and ends operation hatheist
21:33:42 <Phantom__Hoover> had it gone according to plan i would have at least two pope hats in my possession, along with finally getting excommunicated from the church

22:12:00 <fizzie> I had a 3110 a long time, and was therefore envious of friends with 5110s or 6110s: they had Snake (or whatever it was called), and infrared.

22:27:43 <Phantom__Hoover> fizzie, i remember when my parents had 3110s
22:28:42 <nortti> I use 3110 currently
22:29:07 <Phantom__Hoover> my dad always called it a noikia no matter how many times i corrected him
22:29:14 <nortti> :P
22:29:41 <nortti> I should build a phone and label it NOIKIA
22:30:31 <Phantom__Hoover> they upgraded to something new but i don't seem to be able to find it
22:30:34 <atriq> Sounds like protesting against affordable furniture
22:30:40 <atriq> Except that would be NOIKEA
22:30:55 <Phantom__Hoover> it didn't have an arial and it had an ir thing on the top
22:31:36 <Phantom__Hoover> actually come to think of it they mustn't've had 3110s because i distinctly remember playing snake on those and being like "omg this is the next generation" when i played snake on their new phones
22:31:46 * Arc_Koen adds "build my own phone" to the list of things to do at some point in his life
22:31:53 <itidus21> nvxvba forang!
22:32:25 <nortti> Arc_Koen: how long is that list?
22:33:01 <Arc_Koen> I think it is very long, but I have never put it on paper and I can never remember more than three items at a time so one could say it is never longer than three items
22:33:18 <Arc_Koen> however I do recall that it involves a lot of building stuff
22:33:23 <quintopia> i remember playing snake on my dad's black and white motorola "flip" phone way back when
22:33:38 <nortti> why "flip"?
22:33:45 * itidus21 adds "dispose of to-do list before everything on it has been done" to his to-do list
22:33:48 <Phantom__Hoover> i remember my first and current until yesterday phone being one of those
22:33:55 <Phantom__Hoover> i was awestruck by it when i got it too
22:34:02 <Phantom__Hoover> although i was disappointed at the lack of snake
22:34:10 <Arc_Koen> itidus21: but then if you do complete it a paradox will happen!!
22:34:23 <quintopia> because it didn't fold in half the microphone flipped down in a thin plastic thing that came only halfway up it, and the rest was in the main body of the phone
22:34:24 <Arc_Koen> anyway, bye
22:34:38 -!- Arc_Koen has quit (Quit: that's dr. turing to you, punk).
22:36:44 <zzo38> One thing I wanted to do some day is make up a Famicom hardware clone with 60-pins, Famicom expansion port, NES controller ports, with an extra pin on second port (detached from the others so that you can connect devices that don't have it) used for microphone, and internal ROM which is activated when no cartridge is inserted.
22:38:09 <zzo38> And then it come with: player 1 controller, player 2 controller (including microphone and SELECT and START button), keyboard, 72-to-60 adapter, manual for programming it, and a cartridge to program with your own software to test it.
22:38:39 <nortti> I'd buy that
22:39:17 <Phantom__Hoover> one day i will (not) build a mechanical game of life cell and waste away staring at its beauty
22:39:42 <quintopia> zzo38: so you can play famicom with new controllers?
22:39:57 <quintopia> *nes
22:40:15 <zzo38> I would buy that too. So, if I ever make that, I wil tell you, so that you can buy it too.
22:40:39 <nortti> Phantom__Hoover: how is mechanical game of life created?
22:40:57 <Phantom__Hoover> idk, cogs and stuff
22:41:22 <zzo38> quintopia: One reason for having this is so that you can replace the controllers; the protocol is the same except the microphone (which is why I want to add an extra pin to the second port).
22:41:46 <nortti> electromechanical would be pretty easy but completely mechanical seems pretty hard
22:42:12 <quintopia> a watchmaker could do it
22:42:44 <zzo38> The microphone is read on the first port even though it is on the second controller, the extra pin on the second port is actually connected internally to the first register.
22:52:27 <coppro> ugh
22:52:32 <coppro> this proof involves sets of sets of sets
22:55:39 <Phantom__Hoover> pretty tame
22:56:08 <atriq> Can a set contain itself?
23:01:13 <quintopia> the null set contains itself
23:01:40 <coppro> atriq: no
23:01:43 <quintopia> well
23:01:45 <coppro> atriq: thankfully
23:01:45 <quintopia> not really
23:02:06 <coppro> I am proving that every infinite subset has two disjoint subsets that are equinumerous to the original set
23:02:10 <quintopia> but the null set is the flattening of the set containing the null set
23:03:06 <quintopia> could we not define a set that contains only one set which is itself?
23:05:18 <quintopia> "Zermelo-Frankel set theory does not allow such sets due to the Axiom of Foundation/Regularity. There are non well-founded set theories, which typically replace the Axiom of Foundation with some statement that implies the negation of foundation. The Anti-Foundation Axiom comes to mind.
23:05:27 <atriq> Goodnight!

23:45:40 <tswett> In ZFC, no set contains itself. You can create a "definition" of such a set, but your "definition" won't actually define anything.
