05:33:30 <shachaf> today i mentioned that i know someone who's a big fan of gopher
05:33:43 <shachaf> and another person mentioned that they also know such a person
05:33:49 <shachaf> they turned out to be the same person
05:34:22 <quintopia> kmc: burn notice!
05:34:27 <kmc> is that person zzo38
05:34:50 <oerjan> kmc: if he didn't mean zzo38 then obviously he would have said he knew _two_ people.
05:34:52 <shachaf> yes
05:35:02 <kmc> quintopia: that's a p. allright show
05:35:11 <quintopia> other people know zzo38?

05:37:25 <kmc> zzo38 is pretty well known http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=zzo38
05:38:20 <oerjan> kmc: someone in urban dictionary isn't really well known until they become a synonym for a sex term hth

05:41:15 <Sgeo> I think Rebol might actually fake lexical scoping too well (compared to Kernel)
05:41:49 <Sgeo> I can think of circumstances where I want to bend scoping a bit, but Rebol near enforces lexical (despite not having true lexical scoping), but Kernel allows what I want
05:43:14 <oerjan> i can't believe it's not lexical scoping
05:45:27 <zzo38> shachaf: If it is ifMUD, then yes I am on there too; is that what they said though?
05:46:25 <shachaf> also apparently i work in the same building as Don Woods
05:47:19 <zzo38> Don Woods! Do you mean the Don Woods who invented INTERCAL and Colossal Cave Adventure?
05:47:55 <shachaf> yes

06:01:28 <Sgeo> I'm a spherical coordinate library!
06:01:46 <Sgeo> https://npmjs.org/package/sgeo
06:02:34 <Sgeo> I'm a trendy tote-bag!
06:02:38 <zzo38> Spherical coordinates; it can be useful for geography and for astronomy, perhaps. Probably other things too.
06:03:32 <kmc> yep
06:03:46 -!- augur has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer).
06:04:43 <kmc> it's kind of neat that you can use the same kind of coördinates whether you are inside the sphere or outside of it
06:04:45 -!- augur has joined.
06:06:35 <zzo38> Can it convert between different references that the longitude is measured on? (For example, this would apply to convert between ecliptic and equatorial coordinates; it would have other purposes too in other areas of study too.)
06:08:26 <Bike> sgeo can you do that
06:09:47 <Sgeo> I have no idea

06:24:25 <Sgeo> WHERE DOES THAT STOCK SOUND COME FROM

06:29:43 <shachaf> aerated chocolate is strange

06:33:07 <shachaf> i don't know
06:36:15 <zzo38> Do you know what is supposed to happen in Sirlin's chess if a duel results in the attacker being exposed to check? (I am guessing the attacker just loses the game as if he ended a turn in check in any other way.)
06:59:53 <Sgeo> Is Sirlin's Chess 2 public domain?
06:59:58 <Sgeo> Would kind of... suck if it wasn'
07:00:27 <Sgeo> Also, what do chess variant sites call it? I doubt they're just going to be fine with calling some random variant "chess 2"
07:02:52 <Bike> chess 2 #483
07:03:07 -!- tromp has joined.
07:04:54 <zzo38> Sgeo: I really don't like the name "Chess 2" for this game, so I call it "Sirlin's Chess"; other people do too. I don't think the file is in public domain, although you could make implementations and descriptions which are public domain, I think. (The file can be purchased for $0.00, though.)
07:05:18 <kmc> can i purchase it for CHF 0.00 instead
07:06:28 <ais523> btw, it turns out that the biggest Bitcoin mining pool is pretty close to 51%
07:06:28 <zzo38> I don't know what CHF is, but probably you can.
07:06:59 <ais523> which is worrying just because it screws up the assumptions behind Bitcoin for that sort of thing to happen naturally
07:07:04 <Sgeo> ais523: as in, literally 51%, or as in, almost at 50%?
07:07:17 <ais523> Sgeo: not even 49%
07:07:21 <ais523> AFAIK
07:07:29 -!- tromp has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds).
07:09:31 <coppro> ais523: doesn't a majority mean you can break bitcoin since you can invent fake histories and force them on the cloud?
07:09:45 <ais523> coppro: you can't force a transaction to happen that didn't
07:09:55 <ais523> but you can arbitrarily remove a transaction from recent history
07:10:16 <ais523> (the chance of being able to do that depends on how recent)
07:10:32 <ais523> that pretty much destroys Bitcoin's integrity because you can spend money, then undo spending it and send it to someone else
07:10:42 <coppro> right
07:11:15 <coppro> do modern transaction softwares include detection of that sort of fraud?
07:12:03 <ais523> the entire point of the protocol is to detect that sort of fraud
07:12:35 <ais523> but it relies on at least 50% of the miners being honest
07:12:38 <coppro> right
07:12:58 <coppro> but if I'm the guy who receives the money, and later the cloud disagrees, I could theoretically alert my user
07:13:08 <ais523> yeah, but they can't do much but bitch
07:13:52 <coppro> if it happened a lot though then they might be able to convince others to join in retake the cloud in favour of the honest miners
07:23:15 <zzo38> I play Sirlin's other games too, such as Yomi and Puzzle Strike, and even made up new decks, rule variants, characters, puzzle chips, game modes, etc.
07:23:55 <zzo38> Do you know any of these games?
07:30:48 <zzo38> Is there a hardware implementation of LLVM?

08:14:44 <mroman> Any of you guys familiar with fourier transformation?
08:14:59 <zzo38> mroman: I am somewhat familiar.
08:15:02 <mroman> Ok.
08:15:35 <mroman> x(t-l) -> X(f)*e^(-i*2*pi*f*l)
08:15:58 <mroman> time shifting property
08:16:35 <mroman> cos(2pi*f*t) has 0.5 at both +f and -f
08:17:14 <mroman> f0 that is
08:17:31 <mroman> which is usually written as 0.5*d(f-f0) + 0.5*d(f+f0)
08:17:35 <mroman> where d is that dirac thingy
08:17:54 <mroman> X(f)*e^(-i*pi/4) should then be
08:18:16 <mroman> 0.5*e^(-i*pi/4)*d(f-f0) + 0.5*e^(-i*pi/4)*d(f+f0)
08:18:33 <Bike> these readings are impossible! shinji, get out now! the quantum condensation is trapping you in a dirac thingie!
08:18:46 <mroman> at leasts that's what I understand under *multiply spectrum with e^(-i*pi/4)*
08:18:59 <mroman> but apparentely it's totally wrong :(
08:19:55 <Fiora> Bike: dirac sea!
08:20:43 <Bike> no doctor, the desaturation tides are reversed... it's no longer a sea... but... a thingie...
08:20:57 <mroman> On the other hand...
08:21:05 <Fiora> Bike: it's a villainous octahedron
08:21:26 <mroman> the fourier coefficients of that cos thingy are c_1 = 0.5
08:21:56 <mroman> and doing the time shift there yields c_1 = 0.5*e^(-i*pi/4)
08:22:07 <mroman> which means that c_-1 is 0.5*e^(i*pi/4)
08:23:11 <mroman> Which suggests that 0.5*d(f-f0) is just some notation
08:23:27 <mroman> and one shouldn't acually apply the multiplication on that
08:25:59 <mroman> zzo38: nvm. Looks like some notation issue I fell into :)

12:03:05 <mroman> I assume they are still controlled by the government in order to ensure

12:04:21 <Phantom_Hoover> in the UK there's a government inspection body that does exactly that, i assume the US works along similar lines
