11:00:30 <elliott> Deewiant: I mean, a thing more than the thing it was.
11:00:33 <elliott> I remember there being some un-thinginess.
11:01:43 <Deewiant> Well, I'm working on the C library version of its funge-space right now and at some point I intend to convert/rewrite the interpreter itself in C as well. Does that count?

11:07:42 <Deewiant> More "began working again a week ago" than "still", but yes. I'm doing some stuff related to it as part of a data structures course.
11:08:54 <elliott> Deewiant: Oh no, is it getting even fancier.
11:09:09 <Deewiant> Nothing that wasn't in the works anyway.
11:10:39 <elliott> Deewiant: So have you finally given up on D?
11:10:42 <Deewiant> I'm hoping to be able to throw out the hash table fallback in favour of using a decent spatial data structure for the boxes, and the course work is essentially trying that out and seeing if it's any good.
11:11:54 <Deewiant> Kinda-sorta. For this C makes the most sense IMO since I'm trying to stay as low-level as possible for performance. :-P C++ might be a better idea, but, well, it's C++.
11:12:25 <Deewiant> And my higher-level language of choice is Haskell so there isn't room for D.
11:12:44 <elliott> Deewiant: I guess shiro 2 will just have to beat you with Haskell then!!
11:12:49 <elliott> Even though C is totally cheating.
11:12:55 <elliott> Maybe I can write Shiro 2 in Rust.
11:12:57 <Deewiant> The main thing here is that D1 is totally deprecated, so if I have to convert my code to D2 I might as well convert it to C instead.
11:13:03 <elliott> That sounds sort of pleasant.
11:13:08 <elliott> Deewiant: I thought it was D2 already.
11:13:39 <shachaf> elliott: Did you know about GitHub's : pictures. :-(
11:13:40 <Deewiant> Hence good luck getting it to compile anywhere nowadays. :-P
11:14:22 <elliott> Deewiant: I needed good luck to compile it anywhere when D1 wasn't deprecated...
11:14:57 <shachaf> elliott: When you're editing text and press :
11:15:37 <elliott> Deewiant: Anyway CCBI 2 isn't going to have a scrubber-based debugger, is it?! Therefore Shiro is better.
11:16:17 <Deewiant> fizzie: Now that I ended up talking about this stuff: what's the most funge-space-allocation-intensive stuff fungot does and (how) can I easily make it do only that? I could use a 'ready-made' 'real-world' benchmark.
11:16:35 <elliott> Deewiant: You know, scrubbers like you have to seek around in media players.
11:16:40 <elliott> Deewiant: Except this one seeks in TIME.
11:16:53 <elliott> So you get to see the funge-space animated with all your IPs dancing around while you drag the scrubber along.
11:16:57 <elliott> And get the stack in a sidebar and so forth.
11:17:05 <elliott> Not exactly sure how that will work with TRDS, admittedly.
11:17:13 <Deewiant> Yeah I wanted to do that back when we were talking about the Funge debugging protocol thing.
11:17:34 <Deewiant> (Not in CCBI but in the external debugger program.)
11:18:03 <fizzie> I think Microsoft Visual Funge 2012 has that, right?
11:18:03 <Deewiant> I think I got approximately as far as drawing a triangle in an opengl frame with gtkhs.
11:18:39 <Deewiant> (That's pretty much what usually happens when I try to program something non-CLI.)
11:19:43 <Deewiant> elliott: With TRDS you just need to drag along executed ticks, not in-Funge ticks.
11:20:31 <Deewiant> Or then you can execute everything once and draw only the last executed tick matching the corresponding in-Funge tick, but that doesn't seem useful for a debugger.
11:25:37 <elliott> <Deewiant> elliott: With TRDS you just need to drag along executed ticks, not in-Funge ticks.
11:25:50 <elliott> Right, but it'd be cool if you somehow made the scrubber have a topology whereby it linked up with the previous ones and stuff.
11:25:58 <elliott> But I guess TRDS is too leaky for that anyway.
11:26:02 <Deewiant> Well yeah, you can make it fancy if you want.

12:02:58 -!- sivoais has joined.
12:05:31 <fizzie> Deewiant: Oh, right, I forgot to answer. Um. My guess would be that it's the Underload interp that does the most funge-space manipulation. (Though it does it all with STRN, if that matters.)
12:06:48 <fizzie> Of the "major modules" (eh, heh), the babbling doesn't write much at all because it's all about FILE-seeking around and reading four-to-five byte things, and the Brainfuck has a 1000-cell tape that it manipulates (plus a few cells of state) and that's it.
12:07:45 <fizzie> The Underload, though, has the stack (and sometimes the program) both growing to negative X direction. (Though I suppose optimally you'd then need a "real-world" Underload benchmark to run in it.)
12:08:14 -!- fungot has joined.
12:10:41 <Deewiant> You should load the babble stuff into Funge-Space instead of using FILE. :-P
12:15:11 <Deewiant> But, thanks for the info. That's what I suspected anyhow; I recall messing with that Underload interpreter at some point.
12:15:29 <fizzie> There's that standalone copy of it somewhere too.
12:15:34 <fizzie> Easier to run than fungot.
12:15:35 <fungot> fizzie: ( and that's where your coding skills come into play?
12:15:52 <Deewiant> I have an underload.b98 which is probably it.
12:16:56 -!- Frooxius has joined.
12:17:25 <fizzie> Also, having the babble stuff in fungespace would be such a memory-waster. (Admittedly, though, it'd then at least do the silly base-128 number-parsing only once.)
12:17:58 <fizzie> I was about to say "and I don't have that much memory to waste, anyway", but apparently fungot's box has (-/+ buffers/cache) 128M used, 872M free.
12:17:59 <fungot> fizzie: ok, what's next? fnord? yow! it's some people inside the wall!
12:18:26 <Deewiant> How much does it take up on disk?
12:18:52 <fizzie> The 'irc' style (which is the largest) is 195659600 + 1042812 bytes.
12:19:32 <fizzie> 627M for the whole chroot dir it runs in.
12:19:33 <Deewiant> Binary-loading that into a 32-bit fungespace would nicely eat up most of that 872M.
12:20:22 <fizzie> Given that with buffers/cache it's 888M used, 113M free, there's a reasonable change a large amount of it is already "in memory" in a sense anyway.
12:20:27 <Deewiant> In CCBI2, that is. In the hash table interpreters I guess you should something like double that.

13:10:43 <Arc_Koen> a language that doesn't have any form of conditonal statements
13:10:55 <Arc_Koen> that's basically an automaton, right?
13:12:51 <Arc_Koen> or don't we have a computational class for those
13:13:35 <Jafet> Your statement is conditional on what a conditional statement is
13:14:12 <Arc_Koen> well, I'm reading http://www.esolangs.org/wiki/Beebles
13:14:24 <Arc_Koen> basically it has 13 simple commands to manipulate two stacks
13:14:44 <Arc_Koen> but none of those commands can retrieve information from the stack
13:15:32 <Arc_Koen> oh wait it does have "if the top item of the stack is not 0" on the jump command
13:16:26 <Jafet> It could have unconditional computed goto
13:16:49 -!- epicmonkey has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds).
13:19:01 <Jafet> If there is a fork command, you could also make the interpreter angry in the branch that you don't want to run.
13:19:02 <Arc_Koen> I'm pretty sure the "pop" commands pops and discards the top item
13:19:55 <Arc_Koen> well it does have a "kill" command so making the interpreter angry shouldn't be necessary
13:21:35 <Jafet> But without a conditional operator, you can't exercise discretion on killing the program
13:22:04 <Arc_Koen> as far as I know you can't exercise discretion on making the interpreter angry, either
13:22:43 <Jafet> You can push some numbers that happen to be prime if a condition is met
13:23:13 <Arc_Koen> ok, but it's limited to 30 numbers on the stack anyway

15:44:02 <ais523> meanwhile, the PHP devs are trying (and failing) to solve every possibility at once, which is ofc impossible

15:49:54 <ais523> elliott: not sure I understand
15:50:06 <ais523> you intentionally misparsed my sentence
15:50:24 <tswett> Well, it's possible to be case-insensitive in every language at once. Simply make no distinctions at all.
15:50:46 <kmc> the PHP developers are trying and failing so hard at so many things
15:50:53 <tswett> The downside is that this means that there is only one usable identifier.
15:51:27 <tswett> Anyway, what happens if you try to be case-insensitive in every language at once? Can you show that if you do that, then two "obviously different" identifiers end up being the same?
15:52:45 <Jafet> How would one be case-insensitive in chinese
15:53:15 <tswett> Chinese makes no case distinctions. I'd say it's impossible *not* to be case-insensitive in Chinese.
15:55:00 <Jafet> So you can be case-sensitive and case-insensitive at the same time
15:55:43 <tswett> Well, if you define "case-sensitive" as "sensitive to at least one case distinction", and "case-insensitive" as "not sensitive to any case distinction"...

16:30:42 <Sgeo> One of them said if you don't hear back from us, let me know. I don't remember about the others
16:32:23 <Arc_Koen> the logical answer to that would be to let him know immediately, and then if in the future when you hear back from them, use your time machine to stop yourself from letting them know
16:37:23 <atriq> I'm sure xkcd has made that joke before

17:19:40 <Sgeo> kmc, well, that one employer gave a time frame
17:20:06 <kmc> even then I don't think it would hurt to send them an email

18:13:30 <kmc> 'let him know immediately, and then if in the future when you hear back from them, use your time machine to stop yourself from letting them know'
18:14:03 <kmc> it is like the proof of excluded middle using call/cc i.e. peirce's law
18:15:18 <Sgeo> Here, have some absolutely disgusting gross and, worst of all, useless Clojure code that I wrote
18:15:19 <Sgeo> http://ideone.com/BTJxYN
18:15:56 <zzo38> O, so that is how it is. I don't entirely see how it is like that, but I guess it may be. (I think I made a law of excluded middle by call/cc)
18:16:02 <kmc> "p is false! what, you claim p is true and provide a proof? let me just steal your proof and go back in time and claim that p was true all along!"
18:16:09 <kmc> ^----- this is what classical logic actually believes
18:16:16 -!- Jafet has joined.
18:18:55 <zzo38> O, I suppose that is sort of like law of excluded middle with call/cc, although classical logic is not about time like this
18:19:29 <zzo38> Since I have once made the law of excluded middle from call/cc you may have seen before on this channel.
18:19:41 <zzo38> And it is somewhat like how you described.
18:19:42 <kmc> it's not entirely fair and accurate way to interpret classical logic
18:19:44 <kmc> but it is amusing
18:21:02 <kmc> (call-cc (lambda (cont) (Left (lambda (proof-of-p) (cont (Right proof-of-p))))))

18:26:54 <AnotherTest> What syntax highlighting schemes do you all use in vim? I'm sort of trying vim out for the first time, but I dislike the white background and yellow colors when I do :syntax on
18:28:24 <boily> AnotherTest: I use an old revision of lucius, slightly tweaked to fit with a transparent darkish background.
18:28:41 <kmc> i use the default but my terminal is white on black
18:29:02 <AnotherTest> Debian seems to have black on white as a default
18:30:37 <FreeFull> AnotherTest: White background? Are you using gvim? =P
18:31:05 <AnotherTest> No, the debian terminal seems to have white as the default background

19:59:10 <quintopia> also, by replacing once side of it with neutronium

20:12:12 <zzo38> To gain an advantage in fighting the demon who owns it.
20:13:12 <zzo38> I already realized some things: I have an amulet which can negate magic, which I think will cause the water on the ceiling to fall down, extinguishing the candles, but it is probably not enough to cause much of a flood.
20:14:01 <zzo38> This antimagic will still help a lot, though, since they will not be able to cast any spells at us.
20:15:46 <quintopia> is there another way to get advantage (besides the usual stuff)?
20:16:49 <boily> flanking, partial/complete cover, and the maneuver that shall not be named.
20:33:26 <zzo38> Sure those are some ways, but I think tilting the floor will help a bit, and so will the anti-magic. One thing that can be done with the anti-magic is cause the water to fall down, so we can pick it up and extinguish the candles which are lit around that room.

22:14:10 <Phantom_Hoover> you need to pay for a license to watch live tv on any device
22:14:36 <Phantom_Hoover> and the attitude of the agency that collects it is that the onus is on you to prove that you don't have to pay
22:14:37 <zzo38> O, yes, in England yes I read that somewhere. I still don't know exactly how they work, though.
22:14:53 <zzo38> How can you prove that you don't have to pay?

22:18:43 -!- augur has joined.
22:19:10 <zzo38> I think I read somewhere, you can watch it later, you don't have to pay, and that if it is black and white you still have to pay but not as much as colors?

22:22:18 * Sgeo vaguely wonders if it would be possible to have a voting system where voters submit functions.
22:23:06 <zzo38> Do you have to pay for audio? I think I might have read somewhere that you don't but I am unsure.
22:23:07 <Sgeo> As in, apparently one criticism of IRV is that voters can't actually change where their "next" vote goes based on who lost, so multiple rounds gives more flexibility.
22:23:15 <Sgeo> But maybe a function that ... hm
22:25:04 <zzo38> Could they encrypt the broadcasts and then broadcast the key afterward, so that if you don't pay you are forced to watch after you can decrypt the recording you have made?

23:33:29 <Sgeo> Yeah, but what's the best way to distinguish between the Flash version of a game and a version that's a .exe?
23:34:49 <Sgeo> Hmm, it seems to actually be Java not Flash
23:35:28 <zzo38> If it is a Windows .exe file then call it the Windows version.
23:36:48 <zzo38> I think it should only be called software for PC if it is meant to run on the PC with only the hardware and BIOS not needing operating system and so on. That way, you can distinguished more easily you can say specifically what operating system/programming language/whatever if it is for some specific system.
