00:38:53 <notfowl> Does the EU have an anthem
00:39:25 <oerjan> now if you want the whole phrase, it would be [dɛn æʉɾʊp'eːɪskə ʉnɪ'uːn] if https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian_phonology is to believed but i actually don't believe the æʉ part surely it should be œʉ.
00:40:14 <pikhq> It is the Oe an die Freude.
00:41:27 <oerjan> or maybe the southerners actually _do_ pronounce it that way hm
00:42:31 <ORin> So the lyrics are in german
00:42:44 <oerjan> i'm not sure that the eu anthem is usually sung rather than played, unless you're listening to the whole beethoven symphony...
00:42:52 <pikhq> It officially has no lyrics.
00:43:20 <pikhq> The Ode an die Freude, as an independent work, typically doesn't have lyrics...
00:43:59 * oerjan recalls an old norwegian children's tv series in which part of the plot was that the characters ended up having to sing it in norwegian because they were too bad at german.

17:32:03 <b_jonas> How difficult do you think it is to make a parser that lies that it doesn't know some particular construction of the language it parses? For example, imagine a C parser that claims not to support trigraphs, so if you open a function body with ??< it gives an error,
17:34:56 <b_jonas> but it actually knows that that trigraph means { and continues parsing as if you gave { and gives correct error messages for inside the loop body; however, if you forget to close that loop body, it will disguise that knowledge and won't say "unmatched } for the { at line 18" or "unmatched ??> for the ??< at line 18" to pretend it didn't recognize the ??<
17:40:42 <zzo38> How will it then know what error messages to display in that case instead?
17:41:21 <b_jonas> zzo38: yes, that's why it's difficult, and I'm not sure it's possible (at least in some cases)
17:41:47 <b_jonas> maybe sometimes it has to backtrack and reparse stuff as if it didn't recognize ??< at all

20:12:44 <Taneb> Is every non-zero rational a product of integer powers of primes?
20:16:08 <myname> for each x/y you can make prime factors for x and y
20:16:58 <Taneb> Then can I think of the non-zero rationals as an infinite-dimensional module over the integers
20:17:17 <Taneb> With + being multiplication and scalar multiplication being multiplying all the powers
20:17:23 <Taneb> And the 0 vector being 1?
20:18:06 <Taneb> Yeah, scalar multiplication is exponentiation
20:19:37 <Melvar> Is that not only the strictly positive rationals?
20:21:08 <Taneb> Hmm, yeah, I think it is
20:25:15 <Taneb> Even so, this seems like a weird result to me

22:05:48 <Taneb> I am not currently planning to
22:07:19 <Taneb> It's a bit like that guy who did a kickstarter to make potato salad, isn't it?
22:08:51 <Taneb> Like, it got a little bit of attention, then just started getting attention because it was getting attention
22:09:05 <Taneb> I wish Azeem and the other performers all the best, but I do not play to attend
22:09:18 <Taneb> Least of all because it's in California, which is a long way away from York
22:10:14 <Phantom_Hoover> Taneb, so are you just going to have a quiet day in, maybe a cheeky nando's
22:10:31 <Taneb> Well, see, the first issue with me having a cheeky nando's is that I am not a fan of chicken
22:11:24 <Taneb> And I have a linear algebra exam on Tuesday, I was planning on revising for that
22:13:07 <Phantom_Hoover> it was pretty inconsiderate of azeem to schedule his flute recital in the middle of the exams
22:14:23 <Taneb> I think somehow I will find it in myself to forgive him
22:14:33 <Taneb> Especially as I plan to watch the Eurovision Song Contest
22:14:37 <Taneb> Which is also during exams
22:15:23 <Taneb> Also I do not believe he is a resident of any country eligible
22:15:26 <Taneb> Not even Australia
22:16:48 <Taneb> Perhaps. It is however not my cause.
22:18:36 -!- Herbalist has joined.
22:18:48 <Taneb> My cause is getting 100% in linear algebra and groups, rings, and fields
22:18:58 <Taneb> And a good grade in computability and complexity
22:21:41 <Taneb> I did pretty well in Introduction to Group Theory back in January but I lost like two marks
22:21:47 <Taneb> So I am trying harder for these exams
22:22:08 <Phantom_Hoover> do you guys just have really easy exams or are you pushing really hard on being that guy
22:22:08 <Taneb> Also I may have failed Introduction to Artificial Intelligence so I want to bring my grade up somehow
22:22:19 <Taneb> I just knew group theory already
22:22:31 <Taneb> Like, I did maybe 2 hours of revision
22:23:17 <Phantom_Hoover> i was in about the same situation for our intro to abstract algebra and i only got 92%
22:24:02 <Taneb> I messed up the vectors and matrices stuff on my equivalent
22:25:09 <Taneb> Got like 85% or something
22:26:20 <Taneb> That was in Introduction to Group Theory
22:26:35 <Taneb> Completely different
22:27:03 -!- spatterworthy has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds).
22:27:59 <Taneb> The one I got 86% in (just looked it up) had a bit of basic group theory but also linear algebra and set theory and some other stuff that I have forgotten
22:28:00 <Sgeo> help I'm arguing with someone who thinks Python's behavior here is wrong and should be error or warning:
22:28:01 <Sgeo> In [1]: "a".split("a")
22:28:01 <Sgeo> Out[1]: ['', '']
22:28:03 <Phantom_Hoover> mid 90s is reasonable for a really easy module but if you're actually getting 100% you're trying too hard
22:28:18 <Taneb> I have never got 100%
22:28:32 <Taneb> I could have in Intro to Group Theory if I had actually tried, though
22:28:54 <Taneb> I only lost marks because I forgot the Fundamental Theorem of Group Homomorphisms even existed
22:29:48 <Phantom_Hoover> that sounds like something so obvious only a twat would call it a Fundamental Theorem
22:31:05 <Phantom_Hoover> oh it's just an overcomplicated first isomorphism theorem

22:49:57 -!- root__ has changed nick to orin.
22:51:34 <orin> See this is why irssi shouldn't use your username as your nick by default. Everyone will end up being root____ or guest________
22:52:23 <orin> I'm using puppy linux, the only user is root
22:53:26 <zen2> I doubt that. It's generally bad practice to run stuff as root that doesn't need to be run as root
22:53:39 <zen2> to the "Everyone will end up being root___"
22:54:16 <orin> I guess most linux distros do use the user acount system
22:54:46 <zen2> I'm not familar with puppy but it really should have a way..
22:54:48 <orin> I always thought on a single user sytem it get in the way more often then not
22:56:29 <orin> anyway I think it does have a way, but meh, only I use this computer so...
22:58:23 <orin> So I'm taking the BOFH's example
