12:24:05 <int-e> Ah, we could explain the implication more explicitely using models. A is stronger than B (in a theory T) if every model of A (and T) is also a model of B.

12:25:46 <int-e> A model specifies how operations used in formulas work. A model of the natural numbers would be a set of numbers together with successor, addition and multiplication.
12:26:11 <mroman> and what distinguishes them from a group
12:26:55 <int-e> The notion of models is more general. A group is a model of the group axioms. A field is a model of the field axioms.
12:26:59 <mroman> the model actually defines what a successor is?

16:39:37 <oerjan> which would be an argumet against putting them on armor

16:40:37 <fizzie> oerjan: Sounds like it might be a tradeoff between the reflection coefficient you can achieve (presumably higher for a simple reflective surface) and the possibly desirable feature of doing something to the source.
16:40:38 <oerjan> well that would require an active device
16:40:53 <fizzie> oerjan: You could just coat a reflective surface with something that burns away easily when hit by a laser.

17:50:52 <douglass_> it's true, everyone knows tinfoil doesn't come from tin
17:51:03 <boily> olsner: from tinfoil mines in the Great North.
17:51:26 <olsner> tin- is just thin without the h
17:53:28 <oerjan> boily: it's just one of the many proofs that we are living in a simulation hth
17:54:10 * boily dons his maple-tinfoil hat
17:55:34 <oerjan> douglass_: _real_ tinfoil comes from tin. it's also the only kind that protects against mind control rays, which explains why you cannot get it any more. hth..hth
17:55:47 * oerjan misunderstands the script
17:56:40 <oerjan> perhaps it will work better if i include some spaces, twh.

18:30:39 <olsner> well, you're not gonna keep it anyway, are you?
18:30:45 <FireFly> apparently fungot found their resolution
18:30:45 <fungot> FireFly: syntax-case enables the impossible. merely that it is
18:31:06 <boily> as the old joke go, my new year resolution is going to be 1920 × 1080.
18:31:26 <olsner> mine might be 3800x1800, now that there are laptops with that resolution
18:31:30 <boily> (other than that, get back to learning Japanese. but I won't say it's a resolution, as that would needlessly jinx it.)
18:31:34 <olsner> possibly ultra-hd, or just full-hd
18:32:59 <boily> huh. I can go as low as 640 × 480 on this machine.
18:33:15 <olsner> actually full-hd would be an upgrade for this laptop ... the current resolution is almost ridiculously low
18:33:35 <olsner> the 5" phone has higher resolution than the 12.5" laptop :(
18:39:09 <lifthrasiir> well, great, it's time to get rid of home-grown hgweb server due to frequent server overload.

20:22:45 <oerjan> wait now. maybe the government is keeping our computers broken _on purpose_ just so we'll have an early warning about hostile ais before they become hyperintelligent.
20:23:07 <oerjan> it all makes sense now!

20:35:56 <oerjan> int-e: incidentally, the time travel segment implies that certain characters who are currently in trouble should get out of it.

20:48:12 <FreeFull> Oh, I don't think those are actual attacks then
20:51:13 <FreeFull> I should have thought to try reverse dns
20:51:31 <FreeFull> I wonder why my router has been disconnecting from the net though. Probably ISP stupidity
20:51:40 <int-e> right, just port scans. "SPI attack" does not even make sense, I think. (gooduckhoo suggest "Stateful Packet Inspection")
20:52:08 <fizzie> Perhaps it's supposed to vaguely translate to "attack detected by SPI".
20:52:20 <fizzie> As in, unexpected incoming connections.
20:52:59 <fizzie> Though in that case it'd be slightly unclear what "TCP attack" means, then.
20:54:06 <int-e> "See all those packets I've been dropping to keep you safe?"
20:54:43 <fizzie> Aw, my own "misconfigured UPS guy" has stopped. (Or at least is not active right now.)
20:54:46 <int-e> The Internet is a dangerous place.
20:56:01 <FreeFull> TCP attack could be something like unexpected SYNs
21:01:07 <fizzie> But that's what I was assuming "SPI attack" to be. Since it's vaguely related to connection state.
21:01:40 <fizzie> "HTH attack" is what happens on #esoteric often.

21:06:24 <kmc> probably it requires the whole block to be to the right of your nick
