04:11:15 <kmc> now you know
04:11:54 <kmc> it's just a larger scale version of the usual 'i am a rails developer therefore I am qualified to redesign transport / nutrition / the alphabet' that you can see on Hacker News every day
04:12:20 <Bike> thankfully i haven't been on hacker news in like a year now.
04:12:32 <kmc> you say that like you're holding a "ONE YEAR" chip
04:12:47 <Bike> at least i never had an account!!
04:13:08 <kmc> anyway we have this fantasy that a SV billionaire will magically fix everything
04:13:33 <Sgeo> Silicon Valley I assume
04:13:37 <kmc> because the large institutions we would need to actually fix everything are hopelessly dysfunctional
04:13:45 <Sgeo> Also, didn't he say he isn't buillding it?
04:13:48 <Bike> hm that reminds me of a quote
04:14:29 <kmc> http://pedestrianobservations.wordpress.com/2013/08/13/loopy-ideas-are-fine-if-youre-an-entrepreneur/ is I guess the definitive takedown of Hyperloop

04:16:02 <kmc> season 2 is running now
04:16:09 <kmc> I'm going to watch it even though part of me will hate myself for it
04:16:13 <kmc> Sorkin is a guilty pleasure for sure
04:16:28 <kmc> wash it down with some Armando Iannuci I guess
04:16:30 <kmc> the anti-Sorkin
04:16:32 <Bike> Yeah, a friend's watching it for some reason. I think when Trayvon Martin was mentioned for the first time he just stared at a wall for five minutes, reconsidering his sins
04:16:42 <kmc> (I read this article a while back)
04:16:49 <kmc> wait they actually got to Trayvon Martin already
04:17:06 <Bike> i was thinking of the part where the wire has super diseased institutions and then sorkin's just like, hey graphs
04:17:26 <kmc> Sorkin really is a very good writer, within a very narrow definition of "writer"
04:17:53 <kmc> but he's too much of an egomaniac to team up with others who can handle the things he's not good at, like plot, characters, women, etc

04:18:04 <elliott> (have never watched any Sorkin show)
04:18:37 <Bike> «MacKenzie calls one of the show's objectives "speaking truth to stupid"» is this show real
04:19:06 <kmc> yes I have seen it and that is a direct quote
04:19:20 <Bike> well, a while back i saw a quote of sorkin saying he thought he'd have fit in great back in the 40s, the last time america was great
04:19:35 <Bike> so i just, kinda am now disregarding anything about him.
04:20:44 <Bike> i've just been transferring from "why are people so dumb" to "why is everything so incredibly fucked but still works" mentality, so
04:20:50 <Sgeo> kmc: I feel gullible now
04:21:12 <Sgeo> I thought the main problem with Hyperloop was just that some other company would need to build it, and hopefully they would be reviewing it first
04:21:22 <Sgeo> Not ... fundamental issues with this design
04:21:38 <kmc> well you're presumably not an expert at railway design so that's ok
04:21:52 <kmc> neither am i, neither is elon musk, neither are the newspapers cheering him on
04:22:14 <kmc> his proposal also contains some lies about the existing California High Speed Rail project
04:22:30 <Sgeo> I didn't even read the proposal at that point
04:22:49 <kmc> which is going to take forever to build and will be way too expensive and have all kinds of dumb elements, but should be basically a working modern high speed line
04:23:17 <kmc> and the same door to door time as Hyperloop when you factor in that Hyperloop takes you from middle of nowhere distant suburb of LA to middle of nowhere distant suburb of SF
04:23:45 <kmc> he doesn't even have a *fantasy* of how to route it to downtown
04:24:27 <Bike> life's too short to read rail proposals by amateurs
04:24:37 <kmc> I like fantasy maps as much as the next guy
04:24:52 <Bike> i like them more if the person making them has some kind of clue
04:24:53 <kmc> by which I mean "far more than any reasonable person"
04:25:00 <Bike> also if they're not rich. fuck the bourgeoisie. fuck the police
04:25:40 <Sgeo> I think it doesn't help that Elon Musk's name sounds like Ebon Muse
04:25:43 <Sgeo> I should sleep
04:26:00 <kmc> 'night Sgeo
04:26:53 <Fiora> kmc: there seems to be that certain sort of person who looks at some big system that looks wrong or terrible to them and thinks "gosh, I can do better that those idiots with way more experience than me"
04:27:15 <Fiora> I guess it's kind of like the climate science thing of "gosh, all these thousands of experts in the field, they're just dumb, how come they never thought of /this/"
04:27:28 <kmc> that's all
04:27:38 <Fiora> I guess it's crackpotty but more overconfidence?
04:27:39 <kmc> but get enough of them in one place...
04:27:45 <kmc> feed them money from consumer web startups...
04:28:07 <zzo38> Well, sometimes someone will come up with somethings new, even if it is wrong, but occasionally it might happen that it can be corrected and still is some idea; usually not, though.
04:28:25 <Fiora> (I think the world needs some of those though, since 0.1% of the time they're right <.<)
04:28:41 <kmc> the article I linked discussed various non-bullshit ways to Innovate and Disrupt etc. in the field of rail
04:28:46 <Fiora> well okay maybe way less than that
04:29:04 <Bike> empirical research on how innovation happens would be nice.
04:29:33 <Bike> we probably have enough records of scientific activity in the 70s or whatever when we can reasonably clearly work through what's true etc to some extent.
04:29:44 <zzo38> See http://www.chessvariants.org/multiplayer.dir/yalta.html and the comment I wrote about a more precise variation; would you agree with my comment or not, or some do and some don't?
04:30:17 <zzo38> Bike: Do you have some such research?
04:33:01 <Bike> I don't even know what field would do that. I only see that kind of work from like, informaticians.
04:33:13 <Fiora> history of science, maybe?
04:33:14 <Bike> Which is interesting, but notvery systemic.
04:33:25 <Bike> Yeah, like Kuhn with more data, I was thinking.
04:34:15 <Bike> i'm thinking about this because i've been reading a very in-depth description of a (real) government. i haven't really seen this kind of detail in prose before, with interpretation.
04:36:18 <Bike> «And the first time Will encounters the only major character of color, played by Dev Patel, he calls him "Punjab."» kmc help.
04:37:01 <kmc> yep sorkin
04:41:35 <kmc> all the female characters in his show are introduced as "she's the best at her job!" but then they spend all day at work talking about men and screwing things up because they're thinking about men
04:42:22 <kmc> that really bugs me. when writers think they're evading stereotypes by throwing in some offhand comment, but the only behavior you actually *see* is stereotypical
04:42:27 <kmc> it's a visual medium dude

13:33:37 <fizzie> Or cepstral, in this caes.
13:34:15 <fizzie> Anyway, the model in question was a GMM with 256 components, and there's quite a lot of parameters involved in 256 39x39-sized full covariance matrices.

13:42:51 <Roujo> It's missing parts of the message, but those can be inferred anyway
13:43:37 <fizzie> I don't see anything missing there.
13:44:11 <Roujo> Well, it's just hard to read it when the foreground and background are the same
13:44:28 <fizzie> I didn't have any sections with same foreground and background either.
13:44:39 <AnotherTest> Roujo: I think most people use a black background
13:45:08 <fizzie> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/113389132/Misc/20130814-intensity.png -- as seen here.
13:45:13 <Koen__> black background is just there to look geek
13:46:29 <Roujo> This is what I got: http://i.imgur.com/spUhWMH.png

13:46:49 <fizzie> (I think I remember a story.)
13:47:05 <Koen__> am I the only one whose letters are actually coloured rather than just the background?
13:47:09 <AnotherTest> Koen__: not sure. I find it rather readable, also, I never bothered configuring xterm with a white background
13:47:42 <Koen__> AnotherTest: you just admitted having irc in the console
13:48:10 <Roujo> I guess it's the reversal character that messed the colors up
13:48:13 <boily> urxvt is better than xterm!
13:48:21 <AnotherTest> Koen__: well... I'll admit it... I use irssi

20:11:22 <Vorpal> oerjan, Given how long IWC went on I didn't doubt they would get far.
20:12:28 <oerjan> yes but IWC was just that one guy (DMM) and i think he may have changed job during it, while all of Darths & Droids are made by coworkers at the same place.
20:13:14 <oerjan> of course it all obviously depends on DMM's supernatural time management skills.

22:42:37 <Bike> trans... something
22:42:42 <tswett> Ah, Wiktionary says that the English is "Hispanophone", not "hispanophone".
22:42:42 <Bike> spanish-speaker
22:43:26 <gerardo1> o te entiendo muy bien te estoy respondiendo por el traductor
22:43:44 <tswett> Me parece interesante que la mayoría del mundo hispanohablante está fuera de España...
22:44:21 <gerardo1> vuelvo en un momento ok no te vallas
22:45:22 <tswett> Debemos traducir el channel topic en español.

23:01:49 <Bike> hey can someone explain type synonyms to me
23:02:11 <tswett> A type synonym declaration gives a new name to a type.
23:02:23 <tswett> The new name and the old name are then interchangeable.
23:03:07 <Bike> so if i define foo to be a synonym for [Int], and then call it on an [Int] with no reference to foo or anything, that works?
23:03:30 <tswett> Are we talking about Haskell?
23:03:55 <tswett> Well, "foo" wouldn't be a valid type synonym, since it doesn't begin with an uppercase letter.
23:04:13 <tswett> And I don't know what you mean by "call it on an [Int]". Type synonyms aren't functions; what would it mean to call one?
23:04:23 -!- gerardo1 has joined.
23:04:24 <Bike> er, i missed some words.
23:04:33 <Bike> defined a function :: foo -> whatever.
23:05:00 <tswett> That's correct. Foo and [Int] are the same thing, so if the function expects a Foo, you can give it a [Int].
23:08:53 <tswett> Tengo ir en un momento.
23:09:01 <Koen_> wow I just found a board game that uses a turing tarpit instead of the usual action points

23:17:08 <zzo38> Koen_: What game is that? How does it work?
23:17:26 <Koen_> basically there are eight possible actions
23:17:40 <Koen_> and you've got a meeple turning around a wheel of the eight possible actions
23:17:54 <Koen_> if you want to turn faster you have to pay
23:18:04 <oerjan> don't tell me it's a bf derivative twnh
23:18:33 <Koen_> no, it's a CONQUEST THE FUCKING MEDITERRANEAN SEA derivative
23:20:55 <Koen_> possible actions include collecting gold, collecting iron, collecting marble, and hitting your opponent IN HIS FACE
23:22:42 <zzo38> But that is only four possibilities

23:28:50 <zzo38> But what is the other four?
23:29:53 <Koen_> build a temple - hit your opponent in the face (again) - build militia - prepare militia to be built in the future
