00:32:49 <shachaf> kmc: Any idea how this works in C#? http://ideone.com/wpj2Tl
00:32:58 <shachaf> It's like import "wrapper" but with more magic.
00:34:44 <kmc> doesn't seem much more magical
00:35:34 <kmc> "delegate" declares like a typedef for a function type or some such
00:35:47 <kmc> and so it knows that the foreign-imported function has a parameter of function type
00:35:53 <shachaf> But that's a closure being used as a regular function.
00:36:06 <kmc> sure, but ghc does that too
00:36:19 <shachaf> Well, you need to free a GHC "wrapper" explicitly.
00:36:35 <kmc> well, maybe these are only good for downward closure
00:36:45 <kmc> i don't know about that aspect, sorry
00:37:58 <shachaf> Also it looks like it converts delegates to function pointers implicitly, though I guess that's a different variety of magic.
00:38:21 <kmc> well at the import layer it does
00:38:34 <kmc> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/873992/c-sharp-providing-c-callbacks-access-violation-in-threadex-c-in-the-endthrea
00:38:43 <kmc> "You must prevent the delegate from being collected by the managed code, using GCHandle.Alloc"
00:39:10 <shachaf> So this code is wrong-ish, though maybe it doesn't matter in this case.
00:39:36 <shachaf> I guess generating executable code at runtime is much less strange when you have a JIT anyway.
00:40:03 <kmc> whether it's wrong depends on whether EnumWindows guarantees not to call your callback function after EnumWindows returns
00:40:08 <kmc> which seems pretty safe
00:40:39 <kmc> but (like so much of interfacing with C) it is a documentable but unchecked assumption
00:41:23 <shachaf> Well, the point of this code was to demonstrate that .NET can do this magically.
00:41:33 <shachaf> But it's not quite as magic as I thought.
00:42:14 <kmc> here's an example in Managed C++: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/367eeye0(v=vs.80).aspx
00:42:47 <elliott> it's kind of amazing C still doesn't have closures
00:43:01 <elliott> it's not like it's really technically difficult to implement explicit closures
00:43:10 <elliott> you don't even need lambda syntax for them to be useful

00:44:41 <monqy> amazing thing about C: people use CPP???? people use #include??????????????????
00:45:08 <shachaf> So when you pass a delegate to a C function, it generates code that calls it and that code isn't GCed until the delegate is, I suppose.

01:38:51 <sgeo> Oh god I'm getting into a flame war on YouTube commentws
01:39:40 <sgeo> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcuBvj0pw-E
01:39:50 <sgeo> About whether or not Stargates in Game of Life allow >c travel
01:40:43 <Bike> that sounds like a pretty sad flame war.
01:45:24 <Arc_Koen> first the video says "information can't travel at more than 1 cell / time unit
01:45:52 <Arc_Koen> and then the video says "but I have here a figure that allow for information to travel at 30/28c
01:45:58 <Arc_Koen> without any justification whatsoever
01:46:04 <Arc_Koen> that sounds like basic bullshit!
01:46:40 <Bike> define "information" define "travel" define "bla" bla "define" bla "bla"
01:46:41 <Phantom_Hoover> There's a reaction wherein you put an LWSS in one end and, 14 generations later, you get another LWSS shifted 15 generations forward.
01:47:19 <Phantom_Hoover> Bike, it's easy to rigorously define, if that's what you mean.
01:48:02 <Arc_Koen> but it only works with one precise shape?
01:48:05 <Phantom_Hoover> Anyway, the trick is that you get an LWSS out whether or not one went in; however, if there was no input the output decays a few generations later.
01:48:10 <elliott> Bike: CA information travel is pretty well-studied afaik
01:48:13 <elliott> Phantom_Hoover: That illusion confuses me
01:48:57 <Phantom_Hoover> http://conwaylife.appspot.com/pattern/fastforwardforcefield
01:49:11 <Bike> yeah, but that doesn't mean people on youtube know the definitions :V
01:49:34 <sgeo> Also, how is "travel" defined?
01:49:49 <Bike> you say "pretty sure" a lot
01:50:10 <Phantom_Hoover> That's a horrible interface, but delete the LWSS and step forward 14 generations.
01:50:41 <sgeo> I tend to dislike speaking in absolutes
01:50:48 <sgeo> And in certainties
01:51:16 <Phantom_Hoover> It's not as clear as I remembered, but there's a front half of an LWSS in both cases; the difference propagates at c.
01:51:25 <Arc_Koen> so you're speaking in near-absolutes and almost-certainties instead?
01:51:30 <Phantom_Hoover> It's playing off human pattern recognition, essentially.
01:52:01 <elliott> Comon dude we are using 64 bits these days. Those octets are way old school.
01:52:09 <sgeo> Presumably by the time the difference catches up to the front, the effective average speed is <c
01:52:55 <sgeo> Or I guess it could be c
01:54:48 <Bike> so, could you make something like a stargate for arbitrary structures
01:58:02 <Phantom_Hoover> the stargate relies on one coincidental reaction, i would bet against there being a general form
01:58:46 <kmc> "The phase velocity of electromagnetic radiation may – under certain circumstances (for example anomalous dispersion) – exceed the speed of light in a vacuum, but this does not indicate any superluminal information or energy transfer."
02:00:21 <Phantom_Hoover> I suspect the underlying phenomenon is pretty similar.
02:02:04 <kmc> the key is that if you shut off the emitter, the signal would only propogate at the group velocity, not the phase velocity
02:04:53 <kmc> elliott: is the thing you said a youtube quote
02:05:08 <elliott> i'm not good at being that awesome
02:05:14 <kmc> the clue was that the author could not spell "come on"

02:06:42 <sgeo> My Senior Project group seemed to worship me
02:07:20 <Phantom_Hoover> that 'seemed' makes me thing you're leading into some kind of narration

02:08:02 <Phantom_Hoover> "my senior project group seemed to worship me. i was flattered, for a while, but then it started to wear. but then... the local cats started disappearing..."
02:08:40 <Phantom_Hoover> i continue to be amazed at how much irc affects my writing style simply by cutting off the amount that i can look back on

06:49:31 <zzo38> Someone told me that NTSC does have teletext, but it is not used.
06:49:45 <zzo38> But it should be used!
06:50:15 <zzo38> I think they should offer the TV listing channel in teletext.
06:51:27 <fizzie> I think they should offer TV listings in MHP.
06:51:39 <fizzie> What, people actually *use* MHP? Crazy stuff.
06:51:51 <zzo38> What does MHP mean?
06:51:55 <fizzie> ("In May 2010 the largest deployments DVB-MHP are in Italy (DVB-T), Korea (DVB-S), Belgium (DVB-C) and Poland (DVB-S) with trials or small deployments in Germany, Spain, Austria, Colombia, Uruguay and Australia.")
06:52:08 <fizzie> It's an "interactive TV" kind of thing that is part of the DVB stuffs.
06:52:20 <fizzie> It's based on something vaguely J2MEish.
06:52:25 <zzo38> I don't think they need interactive TV.
06:52:41 <fizzie> "MHP service was also offered in Finland by Finnish Broadcating Corporation (Yleisradio), but the service was shut down at the end of 2007 after technical failure. The shutdown wasn't ever officially announced."
06:52:54 <hagb4rd> dvb is crap.. everytime a train passes by i loose the signal
06:53:10 <zzo38> They should use teletext, but still work in normal NTSC video too, in case you don't have teletext on your TV set.
06:53:27 <zzo38> Weather should also be available in teletext.
06:53:30 <fizzie> I remember there being much ado about MHP back when Finland did the DVB conversion, about how things are going to be all different. (They weren't.)
06:53:51 <elliott> "in case you don't have teletext" :D
06:55:25 <fizzie> I have a DVB-T stick (or maybe several?) somewhere in the closet; legally I could take it out after about 13 days.
06:59:06 <fizzie> (The rules about the television fee say something about having to pay if it's "easily possible" to watch TV broadcasts; I've interpreted it so that as long as I have to go rummage around a closet to find the stick I don't have to pay.)
07:01:03 <zzo38> And then you have to put it back?
07:01:52 <hagb4rd> i would flush it down the drain, but i fear it would return some way in a mutant version
07:02:22 <kmc> do they have tv detecting vans in finland
07:03:40 <fizzie> zzo38: If I take it out after 13 days, I wouldn't have to put it back, because things change from the television fee to a "media tax" that everyone has to pay at the beginning of 2013.
07:04:02 <zzo38> fizzie: O, OK, then.
07:04:10 <fizzie> kmc: I've think I've heard rumours, but I somehow doubt it. There are people ringing doorbells, though.
07:04:14 <hagb4rd> aw they changed this in finland too?
07:05:28 <elliott> kmc: have you seen the uk tv licensing adverts
07:06:02 <kmc> some of them
07:06:37 <zzo38> I think I have read that in England, it is OK to watch the show if it is after the show is on, and that no license is required for audio? If this is correct, a way to make it work would be to encrypt the picture, and then broadcast the key afterward? I think the license fee is less for black&white; therefore, encrypt the Y signal separate from the U and V signal.
07:08:54 <zzo38> Does such thing even work correctly?
07:10:41 <fizzie> The professor lecturing the encryption course publishes the exam about a week or two in advance, encrypted with AES-128. Or at least used to.

07:12:58 <fizzie> elliott: In the sense that then you know what is going to be asked at the exam. (Well, maybe it's even more automatic.)

07:13:29 <oklopol> the professor would probably assume you broke into his office.
07:13:31 <fizzie> I doubt anyone has ever managed to take advantage of it. Though I suppose you could deduce something about the length of the exam from the file size.
07:13:53 <zzo38> And even if you cannot decrypt it, that mean if they give you the key afterward, separate for each one, then you can check that the exam has not been changed, at least.
07:13:56 <fizzie> It's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaisa_Nyberg -- see, a notable person and all.

07:17:02 <fizzie> I don't see the exams on the current courses' pages; perhaps she's stopped. There doesn't really seem to be a logical place to put them in anyway now that all course information is in the centralized portal thing.
07:19:17 <fizzie> All the leftover old pages seem to just contain the exam problems as plaintext, I suppose they get put there once the exam is over.

10:49:48 <hagb4rd> we had political party here in germany and wanted to raise the value added tax by 2 percent. i voted for another party which didn't want to raise the tax. in the the end we've got a coalition of both and the tax was raised by 3 percent
10:50:18 <fizzie> "default" VAT is going up by one.
10:50:25 <fizzie> Though I think it was already pretty high?
10:50:45 <fizzie> It used to be 22% a while ago, it got hiked up to 23% not long ago at all, and now it's going to be 24%.
10:51:39 <fizzie> "Standard Rate 23% (since Jul 2010)" -- that's when they last bumped it up.
10:52:14 <Deewiant> The bump to 22% was in 1998 IIRC.
10:52:27 <fizzie> I think those reduced numbers for some stuff also used to be one lower (8%, 12% vs. current 9%, 13%) before the 23%-bump.
10:52:44 <Deewiant> Yeah, I'm pretty sure they bumped everything by 1 percentage point.
10:55:23 <fizzie> Also there was something about reducing the minimum absolute amount of VAT that needs to be paid when importing stuff. It used to be that you didn't need to pay VAT until you went over 43.45 eur of total value (leading to e.g. the verkkokauppa.com e-tailer having a billion products priced exactly at 43.40 eur sold technically from Åland), but that limit is dropping to 22 eur.
10:55:47 <fizzie> I bought my something from there.
10:55:51 <fizzie> Some game or something.
10:56:26 <fizzie> No, it was the PS3 controller.
10:57:09 <fizzie> 43,40 € at 0% VAT. (You can only order those products as a separate order containing only one thing.)
10:59:43 <fizzie> I wonder if there'll be a lot of stuff sold at 21.95 eur next. (But they can't probably really afford to keep selling the newest games and such that have used to be at the 43.40 price point.)
10:59:59 <Jafet> So when does it reach 100%
11:00:26 <hagb4rd> i wouldn't pay more than 22EUR for a game anyway

11:02:38 <fizzie> elliott: We don't use not-a-multiple-of-0.05 prices all that much, since we don't have those smaller coins. Though I suppose that wouldn't matter so much since it'd be mail-order and paid by other payment methods in any case.
11:03:16 <fizzie> Going to the shop to buy a single potato or something that ends up costing 0.02 eur after weighting is I believe a common prank-ish thing to do. Sometimes it nets you a free potato, since it rounds down to 0.
11:03:40 <fizzie> Sometimes I understand they just refuse to sell it to you.
11:04:19 <fizzie> Also, there are people who pay with cash when the final total price happens to round down, but with card when it would round up, since the rounding doesn't happen if you don't pay cash.
11:04:47 <fizzie> (Presumably there are also people who keep track and choose their purchases so that the total always rounds down, but perhaps fewer.)
11:07:21 <oerjan> presumably people who don't account for the value of their own time
11:08:49 <oerjan> i read somewhere that it's usually not worth it to shop around for gasoline, because any difference is made up by the increased gasoline used when _not_ driving to the closest one
11:09:33 <fizzie> I've heard something like that, too. Though often there are competing gas stations ~right next to each other. (And they have loyalty card bonus stuff and such.)
11:11:16 <hagb4rd> also there probably are stations along the way you have to go anyway.. so you might be able to spare the fewcents if you fuel up
11:12:00 <fizzie> Fuel prices are about the only thing that tends to be measured in units of 0.001 eur (per litre) hereabouts.
11:12:21 <shachaf> Is the last digit always 9?
11:12:43 <fizzie> It's not always 9. I'm sure there's some kind of a statistic about it.
11:13:28 <shachaf> Of course that's $/gal, not €/l
11:14:15 <shachaf> But the 9s are often painted onto signs.
11:14:49 <fizzie> Bah, the statistics I can find are mostly about things like yearly or monthly averages, which have been rounded to two decimals after the point.
11:14:50 <hagb4rd> i've heard a cruiseship emits the same value of greenhaus gases on a one way trip, than the entire republic emits on the road
11:15:17 <fizzie> It is often 9, but it's not always 9.
11:16:22 <fizzie> Here's a website; ten random prices from there are 1.609, 1.589, 1.609, 1.599, 1.599, 1.599, 1.574, 1.639, 1.599, 1.624.
11:16:46 <fizzie> Five non-nines in the next group of 10.
11:17:12 <fizzie> So it's 9-biased but not always 9.
11:17:41 <fizzie> It does seem to be (almost) always either 9 or 4, though.
11:18:34 <fizzie> 1.60 eur/l is I think 8 $/gal.
11:18:52 <hagb4rd> maybe due to the weird rounding policy you've mentioned before
11:18:59 <shachaf> Gasoline in the US is so cheap. It's ridiculous.
11:19:26 <fizzie> The rounding would apply to cents, not these... decicents.
11:19:50 <hagb4rd> i guess it's a marketing thang..and has to do with the psychological effects
11:19:58 <fizzie> Yes, I suppose it's pretty much a step of 0.005 instead of 0.001, and then they make it 0.001 lower so that it seems cheaper.
11:20:10 <hagb4rd> (if you're working in marketing or advertising -> kill yourself)
11:20:27 <fizzie> I don't know if, say, 1.574 really "feels" cheaper to me than 1.575, though.

11:22:22 <fizzie> I seem to recall that people advised us to fuel up on the Norway side of the border when driving Norway-Sweden-Finland last April.
11:22:55 <fizzie> Not that the price difference was anything really dramatic, though. But I suppose there is one.
11:23:01 -!- epicmonkey has joined.
11:24:20 <fizzie> It was hard to compare prices without doing any calculations, since they change the currency from SEK to NOK on the border too, and those two are similar-but-not-really-the-same in value.

11:46:10 <fizzie> Other news: our new washing machine has a "smart diagnostics" mode, where when you have a problem and call their tech support, they'll tell you to put the phone next to the machine, and do a special keypress (press-and-hold 'Temp' for three seconds), and then it'll do a ~15-second bleepery that sounds vaguely like a SSTV signal that their equipment theoretically can pick up and decode to see ...
11:46:16 <fizzie> ... what the machine itself thinks is wrong with it.
11:46:24 <fizzie> Also they have a smartphone app for decoding it yourself.
11:46:40 <fizzie> I think it's a terribly silly feature, but somehow also awesome.
11:47:10 <fizzie> There should be more human-audible-range analog things going on in the world.
11:47:40 <nortti> reading too much fingerpori gives you a strange sense of humor
11:48:24 <oerjan> fizzie: does it say "I think you ought to know I'm feeling very depressed."?
11:48:46 <fizzie> oerjan: The beeps in the demo video did sound somewhat sad, if that counts.
11:49:19 <fizzie> oerjan: The smartphone app probably applies some censorship and just prints "I like to wash your clothes every day!"
11:49:55 <oerjan> "Oh no, not gym socks. Anything but gym socks."
11:50:40 <hagb4rd> http://burymewithmymoney.com/
11:51:07 <fizzie> oerjan: It also plays a little tune when you turn it on, when it starts, and especially when it's ready; and beeps when you change any setting. It's very loud, and there's no volume control.
11:51:45 <fizzie> Also, if you turn it on and then turn it off without doing anything, the turning-off melody is kind of like the sad version of the very upbeat power-on tune.
11:52:03 <fizzie> Still, it's not quite as emotionally charged as the tunes played by the Roomba.
11:52:28 <fizzie> Roomba's "I'm stuck and confused and can't go on" dirge is really sad.
11:52:31 <hagb4rd> emotionally charged is i think the opposite of depression

12:29:56 <oerjan> hagb4rd: nah, it could easily have been "configurate", english isn't that predictable
12:30:26 <fizzie> Perhaps even "confurgilate".
12:30:38 <fizzie> You just never know, with English.
12:30:45 <hagb4rd> thanks oerjan. i feel better now ;)
12:30:45 <oerjan> it depends on things such as whether the word passed through french or directly from latin
12:31:23 <fizzie> "Etymology: < Latin configūrāre, to fashion after some pattern, < con- together + figūrāre to shape: see figure v. Compare French configure-r (16th cent. in Littré)."
12:32:09 <fizzie> The quotations of OED are always nice.
12:32:11 <fizzie> 1382 Bible (Wycliffite, E.V.) Phil. iii. 10 Configurid, or made lyk, to his deeth [1582 Rhem. configured to his death].
12:38:55 <Taneb> How easy is it to use Ubuntu's Unity with not-Ubuntu?
12:39:41 <Taneb> Ignore the fact that I should die for wanting this
12:40:03 <monqy> im sorry but it is a hard fact to ignore
12:44:49 <fizzie> Odds don't seem too good.
12:45:35 <fizzie> Arch wiki does have a page about Unity, though.
12:57:12 <Taneb> To finally apply to university
12:58:32 <hagb4rd> fizzie: is the OED free to use after subscription?
13:00:49 <hagb4rd> i love the quote btw.. configured to death. great!
13:01:46 <fizzie> I think you have to pay for it, normally. (The university has a campus-wide license, which is what I'm using.)
13:02:47 <fizzie> Apparently you need to register even just to get price information, which is a bit nasty.
13:03:04 <fizzie> Oh, I was looking at the "Institutions" section,.
13:03:22 <fizzie> It's $295/year or $29.95/month.
13:04:02 <hagb4rd> aw, too much for an language amateur like me.
13:04:22 <hagb4rd> there are enough free sources round the web
13:04:48 <fizzie> Yes, I wouldn't pay for it either. Though the etymology entries are nice.
13:05:23 <fizzie> Still, Wiktionary says "Etymology: Latin configurare: compare French configurer. See configurate." That's pretty much a concise version.
13:06:39 <fizzie> I have a dead-tree edition of the concise something at home, but I can't quite recall what it is.
13:07:23 <fizzie> It might be the "Concise Oxford English Dictionary".
13:07:34 <AnotherTest> I like how template<class o>o(O)(o(Oo)){} is actually valid C++
13:07:41 <fizzie> It's thick, but it's still a single book.
13:07:55 <fizzie> ("The latest edition of the Concise Oxford English Dictionary contains over 240,000 entries and 1,728 pages (concise only compared to the OED at over 21,000 pages).")
13:08:20 <fizzie> AnotherTest: Disregarding the template bit, that looks remarkably much like Glass.
13:08:49 <fizzie> {M[m(_o)O!"Hello World!"(_o)o.?]} and so on.
13:09:57 <AnotherTest> Well my entire function looks like this: template<class o>o(O)(o(Oo)){return !(o((o)(Oo)))?0:((Oo))/(!0 + !0);}
13:11:04 <ion> shachaf: k
13:11:34 <fizzie> "Ooo, OOo" is something you can say when OpenOffice.org has impressed you.
13:11:43 <AnotherTest> auto(____)(){return([]{return([]{return(([]{return((1)^(((1)^(0))&-((1)<(0))));}));});});}
13:11:44 <AnotherTest> template<class _>_(___)(_ (__), ...){return(__)&(!([&]{return(!((1)));})()&&((____)()()()()));}

15:06:37 <fizzie> As long as it's a popular enough piece of software.

21:32:37 <oerjan> i doubt they'd appreciate a command just for #esoteric bots, anyway
21:33:50 <oerjan> the haskellers in other channels
21:34:02 <oerjan> and lambdabot's maintainer (cale?)
21:34:20 <hagb4rd> okay.. don't know much about lambdabot at all
21:34:39 <lambdabot> http://code.haskell.org/lambdabot/COMMANDS
21:34:52 <lambdabot> @where <key>, return element associated with key
21:35:13 <lambdabot> help <command>. Ask for help for <command>. Try 'list' for all commands
21:35:34 <oerjan> i'm sure there's a command for it, but heck if i can remember the name

21:36:03 <sgeo> Person who I assume advised me when I came into the college saw me today by coincidence
21:36:09 <oerjan> the last one used to work
21:36:17 <sgeo> Said I was the smartest person to walk into her office, how glad she was to have met me, etc. etc.
21:36:46 <Bike> did you get a card

21:38:17 <oerjan> hagb4rd: entirely equivalent afaik
21:38:36 <oerjan> people in #haskell, presumably
21:38:51 <Bike> is #happs short for #happenings
21:39:13 <oerjan> Bike: no, it's a haskell web framework
21:39:24 <oerjan> or wait is that happstack
21:39:54 <oerjan> /list #happs seems to indicate it's the same
21:41:55 <oerjan> Bike: btw i found it by actually looking at that ?list web link
21:43:19 <oerjan> the first word on each line is the plugin name, a haskell module providing those particular commands to lambdabot
21:44:30 <oerjan> afaik my only contribution is that i think the unlambda plugin is descended from my old interpreter

21:55:41 <shachaf> oerjan: How do I have 50 karma?
21:55:53 <sgeo> Why would anyone want literal XML syntax?
21:55:53 <oerjan> shachaf: the usual suspects
21:55:58 <sgeo> XML is so ugly
21:56:20 <Bike> http://oeis.org/A000012 aha, there's my favorite sequence
21:56:32 <Bike> "Number of ways of writing n as a product of primes."
21:56:39 <boily> XML has it own... I wouldn't say beauty. more like peculiar acquired taste.
21:57:06 <boily> (a bit like some people seem to enjoy salmiakki.)
21:57:29 <shachaf> «I went to visit him while he was lying ill at the hospital. I had come in taxi cab number 14 and remarked that it was a rather dull number. "No" he replied, "it is a very interesting number. It's the smallest number expressible as the product of 7 and 2 in two different ways."»
21:57:29 <sgeo> Bike, shouldn't that sequence start with 0?

21:58:30 * oerjan goes all ramanujan on shachaf -----###
21:58:32 <Bike> sgeo: what's a fencepost between friends
21:58:42 <sgeo> There are 0 ways to write 1 as a product of primes
21:59:20 <oerjan> sgeo doesn't believe in the empty set
21:59:32 <shachaf> oerjan: the empty set is a lie created to oppress us!!
22:00:16 <sgeo> Also, is it a product if you're multiplying 1 number?
22:00:41 <sgeo> Because 3 times = 3
22:00:44 <Bike> oh hey there's even a haskell implementation listed. "a000012 = const 1" and "a000012_list = repeat 1"
22:00:48 <Bike> glad they contributed that!
22:01:14 <Bike> why must you mock me so, lambdabot.
22:01:42 <shachaf> Bike: Why don't you ever say anything original?!
22:02:17 <shachaf> No wonder the whole thing is so stagnant! You don't take me up on
22:02:17 <shachaf> anything-you just repeat it in a different order.
22:02:21 <Bike> originality is hard, and my muse is dead :(
22:02:31 <shachaf> <Bike> I can't think of anything original. I'm only good in support.
22:02:34 <Bike> http://oeis.org/A055642 man, the oeis has some really great sequences
22:03:07 <sgeo> The muse is dead. Our space is something

22:03:23 <Bike> http://oeis.org/wiki/Toothpick_problem and a wiki!
22:03:27 <shachaf> So that sequence should start with , not 1.
22:03:40 <Bike> the decimal expansion of blank?
22:04:09 <Bike> you use a weird numeral system, sir.

23:24:19 <fizzie> fungot: Yeah, sometimes that happens.
23:24:20 <fungot> fizzie: try running the program is used like any other peripheral device. ( use the setlfs routine must write your programs compatible with any of the front of the pointer.
23:31:33 <olsner> fungot: where's the front of the pointer?
23:31:33 <fungot> olsner: nmi vector when setting up positions in the
23:31:58 <olsner> fungot: positions in the what?
23:31:59 <fungot> olsner: you will notice that by adding this output to the address is to establish the location which must be called by the
23:32:03 <hagb4rd> y is that cut off so badly
23:32:12 <olsner> fungot: called by the what?
23:32:12 <fungot> olsner: extended color mode, each with its low byte first, high byte will load at the fundamental frequency defines the overall volume level other than the keyboard
23:32:51 <olsner> hey mr computational linguist, why isn't fungot making sense?
23:32:52 <fungot> olsner: since the raster register is used for the envelope ( adsr), you can add another aspect of sound effects generator compatible with different machines.
23:39:00 <HackEgo> 219) <Phantom_Hoover> This is good if you are a wheat plant but bad if you like eating wheat seeds.
23:49:16 <fizzie> olsner: It's from a book, and I probably didn't spend much time in refilling the lines back together to form complete sentences.
23:49:32 <fizzie> So they all end quite abruptly.
23:50:15 <fizzie> Also, I don't think the raster register is used for the ADSR envelope at all.
23:50:21 <fizzie> fungot: Are you *sure* about that?
23:50:21 <fungot> fizzie: most simple envelope is shown below:
23:53:49 <hagb4rd> fizzie: so you have used an OCR-tool or sth?

23:57:03 <fizzie> the original document were corrected in this etext.
23:57:46 <fizzie> I did have a script that tried to combine paragraphs back together, but I don't think it has worked very well.
23:58:33 <hagb4rd> well.. not very much indeed
23:59:29 <fizzie> Or possibly I used multiple source texts and not all of them were reparagraphed.
23:59:35 <hagb4rd> wouldn't be a good point to start splitting them by just a few symbols like dots?
