00:39:10 <Bike> >:D, i am so 1337 at that
00:41:50 <oerjan> only you can stop them elliott
00:42:27 <oerjan> or was it forest fires, i'm not sure
00:42:28 <elliott> actually that was directed specifically at bike hth
00:42:48 <olsner> hmm, wasn't it oerjan who could stop forest fires?
00:42:55 <Bike> pretty sure it was oerjan.
00:43:08 <oerjan> i'm pretty sure i've never tried stopping a forest fire
00:43:34 <olsner> though I'm sure fungot could say that to lots of people if it wanted to

01:05:15 <hagb4rd> tswett: is dvorak a popular game where in the US?
01:05:35 <tswett> Nope, I think it's completely obscure worldwide.
01:06:16 <hagb4rd> oh if it's the game i know it's spoken "durak" and means "fool" in russian

01:53:02 <elliott> is... is there a reason kmc is pinged
01:54:10 <hagb4rd> maybe because he's interested in that stuff
01:55:07 <Sgeo> Because kmc has expressed liking of PPPPPP previously

06:00:56 <Bike> chesseality, imo.
06:02:20 <zzo38> I did write a reply. My own point of view is that mathematics is the real reality.
06:06:13 <HackEgo> Thanks, reality. Theality.
06:06:51 <elliott> fizzie: a truce has been established. I am now neutral on speech recognition
06:08:02 <elliott> ok, I still hate it a little.
06:08:47 <Bike> why would you give up your non-biology-related principles!
06:09:06 <elliott> if you think about it speech recognition = biology.
06:09:40 <zzo38> Can a game be defined with sequent calculus in a symmetric way? I have been able to define the subtraction game although the rules aren't symmetric for each player; the first player has to select a rule to follow (if the proof is working from bottom to top), while the second player selects which sequent above the line will be the next state.
06:09:55 <Bike> but the only similar thing between them is that you hate them! and that' snot even true any mroe! NOTHING IS REAL ELLIOTT
06:10:29 <elliott> also, speech recognition = humans = biology
06:11:08 <zzo38> No! They are related in this way, but it is different kind of things.
06:13:13 <zzo38> If there is a single sequent above and a single below the line, then you can define single-player games, such as sokoban. The axiom schema is positions with one player, any number of empty spaces, any number of crates-on-targets, and nothing else.
06:14:17 <zzo38> Therefore, any solvable game is a theorem of this system.
06:14:27 -!- Taneb has joined.
06:15:49 <zzo38> Can you make anything similar, or make a better two-player game with this?
06:17:21 <Bike> elliott: zzo38's right here, man. it is different kind of things!
06:24:17 -!- sprocklem has joined.
06:28:37 <zzo38> I have another idea about sequent calculus. Define a "macro" to mean following many rules, in a polymorphic way (but not necessarily as polymorphic as the original rules), and put together to form a single admissible rule. Therefore, a "theorem" is really a "macro" with nothing above the line. Isn't it?
06:47:54 <shachaf> kmc: least and greatest fixed points are so much imo
06:48:13 <shachaf> you should, like, learn about them and stuff
06:49:10 <Taneb> I need to write a blog post/essay/talk relating Taneb-style fixed curves to control-passing-style
06:54:18 <zzo38> Taneb: What are those things?
06:54:44 <Taneb> A pair of functions f and g such that f(g(x), x) = g(x)
07:00:09 <hagb4rd> no, it's absolutely somethin different
07:03:29 <Taneb> Bugger, I've made a stupid mistake
07:03:55 <Taneb> Okay, this has totally failed
07:04:25 <shachaf> Taneb: maybe you can answer my questions about fixed points instead then...
07:05:24 <Bike> i like banach's fixed points. they're p. good.
07:06:26 <shachaf> do you like Knaster-Tarski theorem....
07:06:31 <Taneb> I thought I was onto something deep
07:06:43 <Taneb> But I made the mistake of saying the xth root of x was 1
07:06:47 <shachaf> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fixed-point_theorems
07:06:47 <Bike> tarski's fixed points are also p. good
07:07:20 <Bike> have you seen the stuff about assigning truth values to weirdass sentences based on tarski's fixed points
07:07:23 <Bike> pretty cool imo
07:07:51 <shachaf> no but i heard about "definedness analysis and liveness analysis" or something
07:07:55 -!- Gracenotes has joined.
07:08:08 <Taneb> It approaches 1 as x approaches infinity!
07:08:10 <zzo38> What does it mean to "assign truth values to weirdass sentences based on tarski's fixed points"?
07:08:11 <Taneb> This could be useful!
07:08:21 -!- Gracenotes has quit (Client Quit).
07:08:44 * Bike dives into pile of pdfs
07:09:37 <elliott> Bike: is that like the logic equivalent of zeta regularisation
07:10:11 <Taneb> No, I still can't make that assumption
07:10:40 <Bike> Taneb: also numbers have, like, more than one root.
07:11:26 <Bike> ugh where the hell is this paper. it was good
07:12:28 <Bike> and no it's not like zeta regularization very much
07:12:56 <shachaf> have you informed tarski that lattice theory is a waste of time b. you should really be doing category theory instead
07:13:20 <elliott> Bike: well I mean, in spirit.
07:13:35 -!- Gracenotes has joined.
07:13:54 <Bike> wow tarski's paper has about 2400 cites.
07:14:28 <Bike> http://www.springerlink.com/index/H880Q5G6M9661313.pdf here, something about "categories" that cites it. ur welcome.
07:16:58 <Bike> ok found it http://comet.lehman.cuny.edu/fitting/bookspapers/pdf/papers/TruthFalse.pdf
07:17:45 <Bike> it involves things being true and false because, like, lol.
07:18:32 <Bike> also it's actually kripke's not tarski's?? so you can tell him yourself shachaf.
07:20:41 <Bike> i knew taneb's thing looked familiar. it's like an IVP where f = f', which is dumb but oh well
07:21:15 <Bike> or like a differential equation rather.
07:25:06 <Taneb> Maybe the truth behind Assassin's Creed is that a logic with the axiom "forall x. x is false" is inconsistent
07:25:24 -!- sprocklem has quit (Remote host closed the connection).
07:25:35 <tswett> comp_Monoid_Elements_is_assoc : forall x y z, multiply_Monoid_Elements x (multiply_Monoid_Elements y z) = multiply_Monoid_Elements (multiply_Monoid_Elements x y) z
07:25:41 <tswett> I'm thinking there might be a way of making that shorter.
07:26:31 <zzo38> Taneb: Well, unless "forall" and "is false" is sufficiently restrictive, then yes it probably is inconsistent.
07:27:22 <tswett> What does x range over, there?
07:27:27 <tswett> If its domain is empty, then that axiom is true.
07:27:37 <Bike> i bet you couldn't find an x such that ¬x is true!!
07:28:00 <tswett> Now, a logic with the axiom "not P" for all formulas P would definitely be inconsistent.
07:28:29 <Taneb> tswett, the joke is, that when this is combined with the principle of explosion, you get "Nothing is true, everything is permitted"
07:28:37 <zzo38> tswett: I don't think that is necessarily inconsistent either if the logic is sufficiently restrictive.
07:28:54 <tswett> Taneb: hm, sounds true.
07:29:13 <tswett> Here, have a picture. http://i.imgur.com/tKns3wi.jpg
07:29:29 <Taneb> Seen it a dozen times at least
07:29:43 <Bike> still good though.
07:29:52 <zzo38> It isn't inconsistent unless all well-formed strings are theorems.
07:30:30 <Taneb> zzo38, what if the axiom itself is in its domain
07:31:21 <zzo38> Taneb: Well, of course it is in its own domain, but I don't think that changes what I said.
07:31:46 <Taneb> Because then it is trivially true (it is an axiom), but also false!
07:33:22 <zzo38> But maybe it isn't necessary "true" or "false" but can be a theorem or nontheorem, since "false" might not necessarily be meaningful in a logic such as this.
07:33:22 <tswett> Taneb: well, feast your eyes on this! http://i.imgur.com/tKns3wi.jpg
07:33:39 <Taneb> tswett, I've seen that at least a baker's dozen times!
07:33:54 <tswett> Yay, you said the thing I was hoping you were going to say.
07:33:55 <Taneb> zzo38, shh it was a bad joke
07:36:56 <Taneb> I would like to learn how to use a sword
07:37:00 <Taneb> And also how to ride a unicycle
07:37:05 <Taneb> Perhaps not at the same time
07:45:55 <tswett> All right. So, given an object in a category, its endomorphisms form a monoid.
07:46:03 <tswett> This feels like a natural transformation.
07:47:13 <tswett> Maybe it's just a functor.
07:47:32 <tswett> From the category of categories to the category of monoids.
07:47:49 <tswett> Mm, no, that would mean that it turns every category into a monoid.
07:48:04 <tswett> This one, given a category, turns all of that category's objects into monoids.

09:11:54 <shachaf> so if you have a forgetful functor : F-Fix(C) -> C does it have a left adjoint
09:12:12 <kmc> i'm a forgetful functor
09:12:19 <shachaf> oh i guess not in general because that would be a monad

14:31:30 <Taneb> Is the sequence of the even naturals computable by a push down automaton
14:35:26 <oerjan> how does a push down automaton compute naturals?
14:36:18 <Taneb> That is a question
14:36:42 <oerjan> Taneb: even a finite automaton can _recognize_ them, after all.
14:37:15 <Taneb> Some form of printy dealy?
14:38:12 <oerjan> i suspect they cannot, if printing a number means you have to look deep in the stack

14:42:21 <oerjan> shachaf: um surely you'd get a direct suggestion. i think that's overdoing it.
14:42:50 <shachaf> have you seen the redirect pages wikipedia has
14:43:48 <oerjan> shachaf: well it shows up if you _search_ for knaster-tarski, anyhow.
14:44:21 <shachaf> oerjan: anyway read http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/fixed+point instead
14:44:36 <shachaf> it's p. good as nlab pages go
14:48:32 * oerjan thinks he may have a cold
14:50:37 <oerjan> hm what does the pumping lemma correspond to directly on pd automata.
14:51:26 <oerjan> hm i think a pd automaton with only output is sort of equivalent to a pd automaton that accepts only one input...
14:51:41 <oerjan> (well, if deterministic.)
14:53:02 <oerjan> in this case the accepted input is infinite, but i doubt that makes much of a difference?
14:55:11 -!- epicmonkey has quit (Read error: Operation timed out).
14:55:27 <oerjan> Taneb: i think that's equivalent to asking if the language of strings of the form "2,4,...,2n" (with your chosen output representation) is context-free.
14:56:29 <oerjan> i'm pretty sure the pumping lemma disallows that.
14:57:22 <oerjan> in fact you don't even need to restrict it to _even_ naturals, it cannot produce the naturals themselves.
15:09:02 <oerjan> <tswett> Now, a logic with the axiom "not P" for all formulas P would definitely be inconsistent. <-- hm is intuitionistic logic inconsistent with that?
15:10:21 <oerjan> if you cannot deduce P from not (not P), then it's no longer _obvious_ that you can get an inconsistency from that...
15:10:25 -!- Nisstyre-laptop has joined.
15:11:05 <tswett> If a : not (not P) and b : not P, then a b : False.
15:12:14 <oerjan> you need to disallow False -> P somehow.
15:14:20 <tswett> Disallow ex falso quodlibet?
15:15:24 <oerjan> isn't that what paraconsistent logics do, or maybe they just don't allow you to deduce false
15:15:44 <tswett> I think both are options.
15:16:01 <tswett> But I think it's more common for (P and not P) not to imply False.
15:16:29 -!- Nisstyre-laptop has quit (Quit: Leaving).
15:17:24 <oerjan> because if you wanted to keep the intuitionistic definition of not P = P -> False, the other option would seem better

18:21:25 <olsner> hint: buttons usually move when you press them
18:32:23 <Sgeo> Is there any technical reason it wouldn't be possible to waterproof a USB port?
18:34:31 <olsner> maybe it's because most usb peripherals aren't waterproof, so there wouldn't be much of a point
18:35:07 <Sgeo> There would still be a point though: More room for user error, so if the USB cover is accidentally left open, it's not a big deal

19:05:43 <Koen__> so I'm watching this espionnage show and they're always like "rendez-vous at the swimming-pool, this way I'll be sure you're not carrying a listening device"
19:06:09 <Koen__> I'm waiting for any one of them to realize they could just enclose it in a plastic bag and tadaaaaa water-proof
19:06:12 <myname> reminds me of the simpsons
19:06:47 <myname> it may be water-proof, but is it anal-proof?
19:07:26 <myname> i believe the main idea is that you don't wear much clothes at the pool
19:07:35 <myname> having a hard time hiding equipment
19:07:42 <myname> besides, well... inside yourself
19:07:52 -!- Taneb has joined.
19:07:57 <olsner> normal swimming trunks have plenty of space to hide a bug
19:08:24 <Koen__> well he explained it several time as "even if you managed to hide a device in your bathing suit, the water would shortcircuit it"
19:08:58 <Koen__> and although the camera keep wandering around all the women in bikini, the men are wearing large swimming trunks as alsner said
19:09:14 <myname> another question is: if it is water-proof, will it still work?
19:09:20 <olsner> yeah, would a waterproof bug pick up the above-water sound properly?
19:09:35 <myname> can you still record stuff inside a water-proof bag?
19:09:43 <Koen__> well it doesn't have to stay underwater it just has to resist getting wet
19:10:24 <Koen__> and yeah if it's a thin layer of plastic you should be alright
19:11:28 -!- hagb4rd|afk has changed nick to hagb4rd.
19:11:30 <Koen__> oh you're already a spy!
19:12:19 <hagb4rd> btw what the heck are ya talking about5

19:12:42 <hagb4rd> is taneb still not james bondß
19:13:56 <Koen__> hagb4rd: do condoms work with usb ports?
19:14:07 <hagb4rd> shit i was just typing that
19:15:09 <myname> why would you fuck a usb port?
19:16:25 <myname> i mean, it can't be THAT small, can it?
19:18:26 <hagb4rd> what is your favourite esolang sgeo?
19:19:37 <hagb4rd> or koen or myname or whoever reads this
19:20:12 <Koen__> I have to pick a favourite esolang?!
19:20:21 <Sgeo> I don't have a favorite esolang. I do have a favorite esolang-related project: PSOX.
19:20:35 <Sgeo> (Note: PSOX not necessarily actually favorite esolang-related project)
19:20:44 <Koen__> I guess I like those which are very original, like /// or Thue
19:20:56 <Koen__> well "string-replacement" is more accurate than "original"
19:21:06 <olsner> I like the graph one... is that eodermdrome?
19:21:21 <Koen__> I would probably like eoderdrome if I had ever took time to understand it
19:21:51 <hagb4rd> @google site:esoolang.org PSOX
19:21:59 <hagb4rd> @google site:esolang.org PSOX
19:22:08 <Koen__> @google site:esolangs.org PSOX
19:22:16 <olsner> string rewriting is nice because you can find it in the wild so often
19:22:44 <Koen__> why do I have a picture of sunflowers in my head
19:23:22 <Koen__> olsner: is that a joke or do you have examples?
19:24:10 <olsner> e.g. sed (though it's quite overtly doing string rewriting, so I'm not sure it counts), mod_rewrite, sendmail
19:25:42 <Koen__> you and I don't have the same definition of the wild
19:26:12 <Bike> indeed, wild animals hardly ever use sendmail, in favor of SMS
19:27:35 <olsner> in that kind of wild I guess you see cellular automata more (which might actually be the same thing if you think about it right)
19:28:28 <hagb4rd> what was the name of the esolang which interpretes midi files again
19:28:53 <Koen__> there are at least two
19:29:26 <Koen__> but you could make a list with two items
19:29:37 <hagb4rd> oh you're not talking to me
19:29:54 <Bike> like, you know, the musical form.
19:29:59 <hagb4rd> that one is quite embarrassing
19:30:31 <Koen__> http://esolangs.org/w/index.php?search=music
19:30:38 <Koen__> apparently Choon produces music as output
19:31:37 <hagb4rd> and it really sounds not bad
19:33:47 <hagb4rd> i looked up embarrassing and its totally not the expected meaning.. wow
19:34:20 <hagb4rd> plain old awesome languagew
19:43:57 <zzo38> A text adventure game on a thirty-column display seems to be limited.
19:45:26 <hagb4rd> what display has 30 columns?
19:46:10 <zzo38> If you take overscan into account so that the leftmost and rightmost columns are not used, then the Famicom will have only thirty columns available.
19:47:55 <hagb4rd> zzo is programming his washing-machine again
19:49:30 <hagb4rd> maybe it's a chinese text adventure.. they don't neeed much space, also they often write top-down (vertical)?
19:49:33 <zzo38> If a font is used which is good in all uppercase, that can simplify the text decoding.
19:50:34 <zzo38> No, it isn't a Chinese text adventure.
19:51:53 <zzo38> (I don't really think Chinese (or any other language that cannot be written with ZSCII) is really suitable for text adventure games, as far as I can tell.)
19:52:17 <hagb4rd> sry, i somehow missed the kickoff infos
