00:00:35 <ais523> b_jonas: I was reading a blog about names recently
00:00:42 <b_jonas> Though of course some given names are ever popular
00:01:20 <ais523> apparently something unusual has happened recently, which is that one name has become in the top 10 of popularity in a huge number of different countries, rather than countries keeping to their own traditional names
00:01:25 <b_jonas> ais523: http://www.madore.org/~david/weblog/d.2012-05-30.2050.html#d.2012-05-30.2050 is one
00:02:16 <b_jonas> ais523: which name? is it the name used by someone very famous? like Barack?
00:02:26 <ais523> b_jonas: Sofia, and variations (e.g. Sophie)
00:02:49 <ais523> I think Sofia is the most common worldwide spelling although different countries still have their own local spellings of it
00:03:12 <b_jonas> sure, and many countries have more than one local spelling of any one name
00:03:33 <b_jonas> that happens a lot here, with both family names and given names, though for somewhat different reasons
00:03:50 <fizzie> ais523: "Sofia" was the #1 female child name in Finland for 2014.
00:04:29 <ais523> fizzie: right, that's true of a lot of other countries too
00:04:31 <b_jonas> family names mostly come in versions spelled phonetically like Kis, and versions spelled in a deliberately strange way, like Kiss, the latter often orinally used to try to fool people that you're a nobleman
00:04:32 <fizzie> I doubt it's in the top 10 overall yet, though.
00:05:02 <b_jonas> so a lot of family names have two variants like that, sometimes three or more
00:05:19 <ais523> b_jonas: have people moved to Kisss yet?
00:05:37 <b_jonas> ais523: no, I don't think so. the strange spellings are all old, I don't think new ones are born much.
00:05:48 <b_jonas> not those kinds of strange spellings at least.
00:06:22 <hppavilion[1]> If I legally change my name, I'll be named kisssssssssssssss
00:06:53 <fizzie> For currently living female Finns, Sofia as ranks #16.
00:07:11 <ais523> fizzie: right, this only happened in the past few years
00:07:24 <b_jonas> As for given names, there's multiple variants either because there's more than one borrowings from foreign languages of ultimately the same etymology, or because people start to give names that were originally nicknames of a name as a normal name.
00:08:23 <b_jonas> The most common example for the latter are Gergő and Bence.
00:08:41 <b_jonas> I'm not sure about the former.

01:39:34 <pikhq> I think "ebf" by I don't know who is one of the more impressive "extended brainfuck" or "brainfuck macro" things I've seen.
01:39:57 <pikhq> ... Just because its only implementation is an ebf to Brainfuck commpiler.
01:40:19 <pikhq> ebf to Brainfuck self-hosting compiler.
01:40:23 <ais523> what's the impl written in?
01:40:27 <ais523> right, was going to say
01:40:32 <ais523> next problem is, who's going to bootstrap that thing?
01:40:36 <pikhq> I mean okay, it's otherwise not *that* impressive, but props on making it self-host.
01:40:52 <pikhq> The author did. The initial implementation was hand-compiled.
01:41:16 <pikhq> Yeah, but awib is not compiling a more complicated language. :)
01:42:41 <pikhq> Oh. And also, this wasn't the guy's goal, just a step on the way to his real goal of implementing Lisp.
01:43:03 <ais523> oh, I'd go via underlambda if I wanted a lisp in BF
01:45:23 <ais523> also, IIRC Chaitin wrote a lisp interpreter as a Diophantine equation
01:45:24 <pikhq> Basically what I'm saying is I really prefer it when people strap stuff onto Brainfuck to make it "more" and actually put some effort into it.
01:45:38 <ais523> and it's only like one page of coefficients
01:45:51 <ais523> pikhq: you can flip that around to "BF derivatives are most interesting when there's effort put into them"
01:45:58 <ais523> or at least a good idea
01:46:09 <ais523> I think when http://esolangs.org/wiki/PaintFuck was posted, #esoteric was approving of the idea
01:46:11 <pikhq> There are way too many boring ones.
01:46:28 <ais523> maybe I misremembered the caps
01:46:33 <ais523> yep: http://esolangs.org/wiki/Paintfuck
01:46:58 <pikhq> Maybe not the best but at least novel.
01:47:27 <ais523> yes, we liked the novelty of the idea
01:47:31 <pikhq> Rather than, say, Ook. :(
01:47:49 <ais523> that was novel at the time
01:48:01 <ais523> it was probably the first BF substitution
01:48:09 <pikhq> Oh, it was the first? Or at least super early?
01:48:15 <ais523> first language substitution full stop, in fact, IIRC
01:48:24 <pikhq> Okay, that's a lot less terrible then.
01:48:28 <ais523> people liked it, but the third and fourth time and so on it doesn't work nearly as well
01:48:44 <pikhq> It's a joke that works about once.
01:48:45 <ais523> "It represents the first, although unfortunately not the last, in a long line of trivial Brainfuck command substitutions."
01:48:59 <ais523> meanwhile, HQ9+ is apparently a joke that only works three times

05:14:30 <coppro> what do you mean by "restraints"?

05:28:52 <coppro> if you view the surface as a sphere with a small crosscap

14:54:45 <Phantom_Hoover> izabera, seems reasonable, this isn't the bbc we're talking about
14:55:26 <izabera> btw your font totally fails to avoid homograph attacks in the korean characters
14:55:36 <izabera> altho my eyes are not trained to read korean
14:56:10 <lifthrasiir> izabera: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=IDN_homograph_attack&diff=383860153&oldid=383859096 is the initial introduction
14:56:20 <izabera> and i'm assuming it's korean
14:56:26 <lifthrasiir> not sure why citibank is used in the example but does not look that significant
14:56:41 <lifthrasiir> izabera: there are some hard cases, I know
14:58:18 <izabera> i don't read braille either but i think the font should only display the black dots
14:58:39 <izabera> displaying both is confusing
15:01:30 <lifthrasiir> izabera: people seems to like brailles, that is the second time I've heard of criticism on braille
15:02:00 <lifthrasiir> I'm thinking of providing an option to give alternative glyphs for them
15:03:09 <b_jonas> Of course I like brailles! It's a well-designed system that managed to get more popular than all its competitors, so basically it's a story with a happy end. And
15:03:40 <lifthrasiir> of course, Unicode ruined braille by merging two variants of 8-dot brailles
15:04:02 <b_jonas> it's stood the test of time: braille is still popular now that we write it with thousand dollar braille terminals connected to the internet rather than a grid and stylus, and it still works.
15:04:28 <b_jonas> lifthrasiir: I don't think it _merged_ them. I think it just failed to account for the less common variant, so far, because it's not much popular.
15:04:45 <lifthrasiir> b_jonas: Korean braille is almost based on 1930s' Korean orthography
15:05:31 <b_jonas> I don't know enough about the back story here to understand this.
15:05:51 <lifthrasiir> b_jonas: a reply to "it's stood the test of time", I meant
15:06:18 <b_jonas> Isn't Korean braille a 6-dot system where generally each letter is written separately so that each syllable is made of two or three cells, except that there's a lot of abbreviations so it's generally shorter than that?
15:06:21 <lifthrasiir> it is so successful that it changes slowly than its normal variant
15:06:51 <lifthrasiir> b_jonas: basically yes, but has lots of abbreviations like English braille
15:07:14 -!- dcentral has joined.

18:32:19 <b_jonas> well, the flood doesn't go up to the tenth floors of the high buildings, it's just the basements that are regularly flooded, but that's enough of a problem.

18:50:01 <b_jonas> As in, he was active _before_ the dualism.
18:50:07 <b_jonas> Sorry, I'm not good in history.
18:51:17 <b_jonas> I should have known this, it's not like the Károlyi family, which has like a dozen famous people in it, including minister presidents, and statues with just "Károlyi" written on them; plus a dozen other famous people named Károlyi who aren't related to them.
18:52:42 <oerjan> now i wonder why the son dropped a ´
18:53:38 <oerjan> the pronunciation guide at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Istv%C3%A1n_Sz%C3%A9chenyi seems to think it's still pronounced long
18:54:20 <b_jonas> oerjan: at that time people didn't have passports with a name printed in them, so the spelling of names of noblemen was more flexible.
18:54:35 <b_jonas> and yes, both are pronounced Szécsényi
18:54:55 <b_jonas> at least most likely pronounced that
18:55:06 <b_jonas> some people probably pronounced it in different ways
18:57:16 <fizzie> There's an Iain M. Banks novel where your social class determines how many names you have -- nobles have one, two seems relatively common, and having four names seems to be considered an indicator of low social status.

20:40:58 <b_jonas> mind you, it makes no difference because HackEgo is set to UTC timezone by default
20:42:53 <fizzie> The one good thing about living in the UK: times in UTC are local for at least part of the year.
20:43:00 <fizzie> Now if they'd get rid of DST too.
20:43:56 <izabera> which timezone is the other one where utc is local for part of the year?
20:44:17 <b_jonas> izabera: -1 (in one of the notations. time zones are notated in two opposite ways.)
20:44:30 <b_jonas> izabera: the one almost nobody uses that is, because it's in the atlantic
20:44:44 <b_jonas> izabera: most of Europe is on +1, which is +2 in most of the year actually, but +1 now in the winter
20:45:05 <fizzie> There isn't much where it's like that summer-only.
20:45:10 <izabera> not sure why but i kinda hoped it was +1 because i live there but it wouldn't change my life in the slightest way but still
20:46:41 <fizzie> Iceland is permanently UTC-local.
20:47:50 <fizzie> (And many countries in Africa, I'm just being eurocentric.)
20:52:01 <fizzie> Somehow I always think of Iceland being very far up north, even though it isn't really.
20:59:30 <b_jonas> that's actually Greenland, and it's very far up west, not north
21:00:05 -!- mihow has joined.
21:16:49 <hppavilion[1]> Also, a complex operation called (for now) "swapation"
21:17:23 <hppavilion[1]> If $ is swapation (prefix, lower precedence than +), then $a+bi = b+ai
21:18:04 <hppavilion[1]> The only obvious properties I can think of of $ are:
21:18:53 <hppavilion[1]> A) c+di = $a+bi -> sqrt(a**2+b**2) = sqrt(c**2+d**2)
21:19:25 <hppavilion[1]> (More simply, the swapation of a complex number has the same absolute value, which is of course different from modulus because calling abs(z) the "modulus" of z is stupid)
21:20:08 <hppavilion[1]> B) $$z=z ($ is its own negation, similar to conjugate)
21:20:37 <hppavilion[1]> I saw the first time and was formulating a response
21:21:20 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Do you think there's any practical use for $?
21:21:40 <oerjan> well it's not analytic
21:22:01 <oerjan> and it's not a field isomorphism
21:23:18 <oerjan> so it combines the flaws of i* and conj(). also in math conj() is usually just a macron, so the notation isn't really shorter either
21:23:30 <hppavilion[1]> There's also $ for generalized polynomials, called "rotation", with the property that $(a[0]x**n+a[1]x**(n-1)+...a[n]x**(n-n=0) is equal to... something
21:23:51 <hppavilion[1]> I guess that you rotate the a's by one, but not the exponents, or vice versa
21:24:06 <hppavilion[1]> Then of course ~$, revrot, which does the same thing in reverse
21:24:45 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Yes, but is there any time one would ever want to swapate a binomial (complex or not)?
21:25:20 <hppavilion[1]> I mean, is there any use for i*conj(z) that comes up even remotely often?
21:25:50 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Also, what do you think of fuzzy sets where the fuzziness of an element is generalized to the complexes?
21:26:37 <oerjan> i doubt it comes up often enough to justify a new notation.
21:27:19 <oerjan> especially since if you are doing that kind of manipulation, it's probably better to keep everything in terms of z and conj(z) for uniformity
21:27:36 <oerjan> (as long as you want to use complex notation)
21:28:03 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: OK, but if I ever write a paper that makes heavy use of i*(z*) I'm using $.
21:29:42 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: Why do you do "OKAY" in fullcaps? It makes you look angry.
21:29:49 <oerjan> as for your polynomial version, one problem i see is that it depends on whether a coefficient is 0 or not.
21:30:10 <oerjan> i.e. if a[0] = 0, you suddenly have degree one less.
21:30:11 <hppavilion[1]> oerjan: You fill in 0 coefficients, but only up to the degree of the polynomial
21:30:25 <oerjan> yes, and that makes it nonlinear.
21:31:18 <oerjan> it means that if you rotate x^n and x^n + 1, then the difference is not the rotation of 1.
21:31:32 <oerjan> which is sort of an ugly property.
21:32:10 <oerjan> oh even worse, the rotation is not invertible
21:32:28 <oerjan> x^n -> 1, no matter what n is
21:33:21 <oerjan> (well either that or revrot, not sure which one is which direction)
21:34:06 <oerjan> to sum up, i think you need to include n in the notation for it to be sane.
21:34:41 <oerjan> time to put on pizza...
21:36:04 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: also OKAY in full caps means i'm being incredulous hth
21:39:12 <oerjan> if you include n in the notation, then you can also apply it to polynomials of even larger degree, it will just ignore those coefficients.
21:39:52 <oerjan> complex fuzziness: no idea how useful it is, but i could say almost the same thing about ordinary fuzzy sets.

21:43:32 <oerjan> hppavilion[1]: btw if you restrict it to polynomials of lower degree, then it's basically multiplying by x followed by modulo by x^(n+1) - 1.
21:43:57 <oerjan> or multiplying by x^n, for the reverse

22:54:45 <zzo38> Does it work better if you write to them do you even know how to do such thing better? But first see if you understand what my bug report is at least.
22:55:37 <b_jonas> why would it help if I write? I didn't get it right at first, I had to write a second letter.
22:55:49 <b_jonas> and then a third when drhipp committed a wrong fix
22:55:57 <b_jonas> (a partial fix, let's say)
22:56:08 <zzo38> Then tell someone else who does know how to get it right
22:56:11 <b_jonas> (though he would have figured it out when running the tests anyway, but later)
