00:10:03 <^v> <fizzie> In a one-line program, if you need to go both ways you generally need to "waste" some characters to #s. In a more squarish program, you generally need to "waste" some characters to ^v<>. It's really a matter of how well you manage to structure your code to avoid either kind of waste, keeping in mind that conditionals by nature change direction, and it's possible to e.g. use _ to do a ...
00:11:34 -!- oerjan has joined.
00:14:43 <oerjan> <\oren\> how does one catch oneself from saying things that will inadvertently show one's age? <-- the only way is to stay away from this new-fangled information superhighway thing hth
00:16:49 <Etaoin> you'd basically have to not reference anything that happened in more than the past 5 years as something you've experienced but rather as something you know happened because you've heard/read about it. also not saying your age would help as well
00:18:26 <oerjan> but if you, like, say you read about the 9/11 event then you're showing yourself as _young_ instead.
00:19:24 <Etaoin> in case you aren't wouldn't that throw them off?
00:20:12 <oerjan> well you can of course deceive either way.
00:20:34 <oerjan> i remember when nixon did that.
00:21:09 * oerjan whistles innoc^Wtransparently
00:21:34 <Etaoin> but honestly I lived through 9/11 and was conscious enough to remember it but it wasn't a thing that was that important here at that time
00:21:52 <oerjan> (theoretically, i _could_ have, i guess, but i don't remember anything from back when i was 4...
00:22:40 <Etaoin> I was 5 then and while I do remember some things about it, I remember it being not very prominent
00:22:48 <Etaoin> we ARE talking about croatia
00:23:14 <Etaoin> some countries cared less about 9/11 is what I'm saying
00:23:16 <oerjan> just add nationality to the things you don't want to show
00:24:37 <Etaoin> my real question is, of all the things one can hide about themselves, why age?
00:25:11 <oerjan> i guess \oren\ is just in a sensitive one :P
00:25:49 <oerjan> not here, it's after midnight
00:25:55 <oerjan> not in croatia either, i bet
00:26:09 <Etaoin> pretty much high moon really
00:26:40 * oerjan hasn't checked out the moon today, it was cloudy
00:27:26 <oerjan> hm full moon was a week ago. so presumably pretty half now.
00:27:29 <moon__> hbot is being annoying
00:27:54 <oerjan> is it trying to take over the world
00:28:01 <oerjan> you need to give i a stupid sidekick
00:28:13 <moon__> Its not running some things right
00:28:40 <Etaoin> then you need to give it to a clever protagonist
00:28:41 <oerjan> hm google says that's from portal
00:28:47 * oerjan doesn't really play games
00:29:06 <moon__> It certainly is, and you mean Portal 2
00:29:36 <Etaoin> I meant the franchise, oerjan meant portal 2 :)
00:30:49 <Etaoin> can someone help me wrap my head around lambda calculus?
00:32:25 <oerjan> yes, but i cannot promise your head will survive the twisting
00:33:30 <Etaoin> I fancy myself competent enough :D
00:36:06 <oerjan> imo lambda calculus is about taking the concepts of (mathematical) variables and functions and distilling them down to their bare essence.
00:39:46 <oerjan> (wait what did i get myself into)
00:40:19 <gamemanj> (I'm tired. Why are people talking about a high moon?)
00:41:30 <Etaoin> I understand application and that jazz, but how exactly is a function defined?
00:42:07 <oerjan> a function is a lambda abstraction. \ variable . expression
00:42:20 * oerjan cannot be bothered to type a real lambda
00:42:35 <Etaoin> this expression can be anything?
00:43:00 <oerjan> any lambda calculus expression yes.
00:43:20 <oerjan> in pure lambda calculus all you have is variables, applications, and lambda abstractions.
00:43:44 <Etaoin> how do you define say f x = x^2 in it then?
00:43:59 <Phantom__Hoover> Etaoin, in pure lambda calculus a function is just a pattern of application, basically
00:44:11 <oerjan> well that requires you to have some concept of numbers and exponentiation.
00:44:18 <Phantom__Hoover> its arguments are functions and it applies them in some way or another
00:44:32 <oerjan> you can either put those in as extras, or encode them as other lambda expressions.
00:44:34 <moon__> Who here has played/plays dwarf fortress?
00:44:47 <Phantom__Hoover> so e.g. you define the natural numbers as taking functions f and x and applying f to x n times.
00:45:14 <oerjan> fine, i see Phantom__Hoover takes over.
00:45:51 <Etaoin> moon__, I've played it a little but stopped inexplicably
00:46:41 <moon__> How come? The graphics or the unintuitivity?
00:46:48 <quintopia> gamemanj: moon was smokin' somethin' potent
00:46:56 <oerjan> surely you mean inevitably
00:47:32 <quintopia> I hear it's got a steep learning curve, but once learned is quite Fun™
00:47:53 <moon__> The 'steep learning curve' is just mostly a joke
00:48:04 <moon__> The wiki helps a lot to squash it
00:48:17 <Etaoin> moon__, neither really. pretty sure soon after I downloaded it my computer had some issues and I had to reinstall whichever OS I was using at the time
00:48:22 <quintopia> ...it's a game where you need to read a wiki to play
00:48:38 <moon__> Its just one page to help newbies get started
00:48:55 <Etaoin> I love the aesthetics of it and don't find it that unintuitive

00:49:36 <moon__> Toady added adventuremode building and 64bit is coming up Phantom__Hoover
00:50:17 <Phantom__Hoover> the extra registers might make the main game thread run a bit faster i suppose
00:50:17 <moon__> Eh, more memory for bigger fortresses
00:50:30 <quintopia> has anyone written a utility to compile DF maps to minecraft maps?
00:50:34 <Phantom__Hoover> i don't remember ever running up against memory issues, you'd hit FPS death first
00:50:35 <gamemanj> if you think about it, DF is a rather well-optimized and tuned game on 32-bit
00:51:13 <gamemanj> (I was hoping my complete lack of knowledge would go unnoticed!)
00:51:16 <Etaoin> I just wanna feel like I'm part of the chat
00:51:41 <Phantom__Hoover> gamemanj, i remember when just the temperature calculations alone would take the game from 60FPS to 30 on my machine
00:51:53 <moon__> Temp calculations are better i hope
00:52:03 <moon__> unless ur pc is on old hardware
00:52:06 <Phantom__Hoover> i think it's a bit better now but there were trivial optimisations that dfhack added that removed most of that hit
00:52:06 <gamemanj> (TBH, I kind of thought such things as multithreading were already implemented or else it would have already been melting machines)
00:52:20 <Etaoin> >caring about FPS in an ASCII game
00:52:36 <gamemanj> Etaoin: it's not exactly a text adventure :)
00:52:46 <moon__> The FPS means how fast the game is processing everything
00:52:54 <gamemanj> (Though I guess Adventurer Mode might count?)
00:53:05 <moon__> Adventure mode is also graphical
00:53:18 <moon__> and supports a lot of functions from fortress mode
00:53:19 <Phantom__Hoover> gamemanj, DF these days has a rendering thread and the thread that does the game and everything else, i think
00:53:34 <gamemanj> (I mean sim speed, which is presumably what Etaoin meant by FPS)
00:53:47 <gamemanj> (With Adventurer mode the whole thing's held up on user input anyway)
00:53:53 <Phantom__Hoover> making the latter multithreaded would probably be an enormous boost to performance but it'd require a herculean amount of refactoring to even be able to start
00:54:34 <moon__> the game is too big to multithread without looking like someone trying to get to the other side of a pool of peanut butter
00:55:07 <gamemanj> That's an interesting way of saying "a mess"
00:55:21 <moon__> i made it up on the spot xP
00:55:49 <moon__> We should move this DF related discussion to #dwarffortress, it fits a bit better there
00:55:56 <Etaoin> is it smooth or chunky peanut butter?
00:56:28 <gamemanj> Etaoin: Think of what would happen if you cut peanut butter into randomly shaped pieces around one cubic centimetre in volume
00:56:55 <gamemanj> and then arranged them into the form that a game's code might take if it were a physical being
00:57:10 <gamemanj> ...and then threw a jar of pepper at it
00:57:33 -!- jaboja has quit (Remote host closed the connection).
00:57:39 <moon__> Also, anyone want to try their hand at a newbie succession fort for lols?
00:58:11 <gamemanj> depends if you want the fortress to die before it's first year
00:58:12 <Phantom__Hoover> i'd be so down for another #esoteric succession fort but i'm not really a newbie any more
00:58:35 <moon__> ill take the first turn
00:58:35 <Phantom__Hoover> i like succession forts because i don't have to set down the initial floorplan and agonise over the large-scale design
00:58:50 <gamemanj> Well, if I didn't have something that will take up...
00:59:01 <gamemanj> ...the entirety of next week... to deal with...
00:59:10 <moon__> 43.04 also works (i think)
00:59:28 <moon__> i take just a hour or two to finish a turn
00:59:48 <moon__> Who wishes to go after me? :P
01:00:01 <gamemanj> (then again, if I can find a way to make qemu work - specifically qemu, not qemu-system - on an Android tablet...)
01:00:17 <gamemanj> (qemu-system would probably be too slow)
01:00:33 <moon__> DF in the early stages isnt too lagy
01:00:51 <gamemanj> Wait, so my idea to bring an emulated Linux VM with me ISN'T considered insane?
01:01:02 <gamemanj> Something is wrong with the world
01:01:22 <gamemanj> Usually my crazy ideas are just that
01:01:49 <izabera> what's the difference between qemu and qemu-system?
01:01:56 <moon__> Then ill get the ball rolling and share it
01:01:57 <gamemanj> I'm not even sure if I'll be part of this
01:02:08 <moon__> ill do 2x2 for slower systems
01:02:21 <gamemanj> Phantom__Hoover: and NOW you know why the qemu is involved!
01:02:25 <gamemanj> Phantom__Hoover: Virtual machine
01:02:38 <Phantom__Hoover> gamemanj, yeah but there's a difference between hardware and software virtualisation
01:02:52 <gamemanj> It'll be slow but it might work!
01:03:05 <gamemanj> izabera: qemu-system emulates a whole machine
01:03:07 <moon__> its a good middle size
01:03:50 <moon__> Lets see if i can find a nice site
01:04:12 <gamemanj> izabera: qemu-i386 more or less runs a program without emulating the full kernel/etc AFAIK. At least, that's what I think it does...
01:04:22 <gamemanj> I know, I'll try it on a program and find out!
01:05:05 <gamemanj> [gamemanj@Iwakura dist]$ qemu-i386 reb_static
01:05:33 <moon__> How much memory do you have to use?
01:05:42 <moon__> over 2gb is the best case here
01:06:31 <gamemanj> uh, target device not active right now, busy charging for tomorrow.
01:07:17 <gamemanj> - system stuff & emulator overhead & such and things will be rather bad.
01:08:12 <moon__> Perfect location found
01:08:28 <moon__> do you have a attachable keyboard (wireless for example?)
01:08:43 <Etaoin> Phantom__Hoover, so in lambda calculus I could write something like \x.x where x is a function that does something specific, but I could then use the symbol x for function composition/application/abstraction and such? basically what the actual symbol symbolizes is irrelevant, lambda calculus just allows me to work with higher order functions in an abstract way?
01:09:22 <gamemanj> moon__: I have an OTG keyboard...
01:09:28 <Phantom__Hoover> Etaoin, yes, but then the trick is that in the lambda calculus those are the only functions
01:09:41 <gamemanj> And by that I mean an OTG cable (no separate power though...)
01:10:01 <moon__> If it canconnect to your device, it will work
01:10:10 <Etaoin> that's the bit I can't understand :D
01:10:11 <moon__> ill play the first year
01:10:27 <Etaoin> how in the world can I do anything useful with such a simple system
01:10:41 <moon__> Etaoin, look at brainfuck lol
01:10:52 <Etaoin> brainfuck is relatively complex compared to this imo
01:11:01 <Phantom__Hoover> Etaoin, well e.g. you can encode true vs. false as \x y.x and \x y.y
01:11:32 <moon__> So no-one wants to take the next turn?
01:12:16 <Phantom__Hoover> and you can encode other data types in similar ways, and then from there you can get the 'primitive functions' that you expect to have
01:12:27 -!- lambda-11235 has joined.
01:12:53 <Cale> More suggestively, you can encode true vs. false as \false true. false and \false true. true
01:13:18 <Cale> In general, you just pretend that you're taking the data constructors for your algebraic type as arguments to the function
01:14:47 <Cale> So e.g. if in Haskell, you'd have had data Tree a = Tip | Branch a (Tree a) (Tree a), and some value like Branch 1 (Branch 2 Tip Tip) (Branch 3 Tip Tip), you'd encode that as \tip branch -> branch 1 (branch 2 tip tip) (branch 3 tip tip)
01:15:58 <moon__> ill just put up the save when im done
01:16:31 <Cale> Etaoin: and then supplying function arguments is basically doing a fold over the data structure

01:21:36 <moon__> Ooo, this embark has gold
01:24:35 <oerjan> <gamemanj> Note the "as long as they're arbitrary" - you have to have enough expression to tell whatever lies you need, and by having that you also leave a hole open for telling truth
01:24:57 <oerjan> iirc the point of the original Newspeak was precisely _not_ to have enough expression.
01:25:40 <oerjan> although it still technically allowed "absurdies" like "Big Brother is ungood."

02:19:31 <shachaf> I looked up "scrub" on the Internet.
02:20:23 <shachaf> But the whole joke is that you're being rude.
02:20:29 <shachaf> There's nothing else to that joke.
02:21:18 <Etaoin> I obviously wouldn't call oerjan a scrub for real though
02:22:00 <Etaoin> my apologies in any case
02:22:20 <shachaf> I think you should scrub that word from your lexicon.
02:23:59 <oerjan> i dunno, that 3rd definition resonates with me
02:25:17 <Etaoin> the only 3: one I assume

02:28:34 <Etaoin> are you implying shachaf's clothing isn't fashionable enough
02:28:47 <oerjan> i don't know, i have never seen shachaf's clothing
02:29:11 <shachaf> anyway, i knew what the word meant
02:29:19 <shachaf> i wasn't suggesting it's illegitimate because it's not in the dictionary

02:33:29 <shachaf> ais523: What was your hypothesis for how assembling contraptions must behave?
02:33:37 <shachaf> Or maybe it was just vague grammatical speculation.
02:34:09 <ais523> shachaf: that it's in the same sort of grammatical category as "attacks", "blocks", "targets", "damages"
02:34:13 <ais523> that "assembles" is, I mean
02:34:17 <ais523> and thus that protection prevents it working
02:35:01 <ais523> I had a theory that maybe it works a bit like the early playtests of outlast did; during your combat phase, instead of attacking a player or a planeswalker with a creature, you can assemble a contraption with it
02:35:37 <ais523> hmm… if a planeswalker has protection from creatures, that doesn't stop creatures attacking it, right? because attacking isn't listed in the list of things protection stops
02:35:56 <ais523> so maybe protection wouldn't save the contraptions from assembly either
02:36:22 <ais523> one theory as to what assembly does is that the contraptions are permanently tapped when played, and assembling them is the only way to untap them
02:36:59 <shachaf> Seems odd to introduce an extra word for that.
02:37:07 <shachaf> But I guess it could be some other state.
02:37:40 <shachaf> Maybe a Contraption is an entity consisting of more than one object?
02:37:51 <shachaf> Well, that doesn't make that much sense.
02:38:17 <Etaoin> at what point does it stop being human error and the machine becomes responsible?
02:39:25 <ais523> shachaf: you'd have to introduce an extra word, if you wrote the rules out (say as reminder text) it would be something like "(Instead of attacking, this creature can untap a Contraption you control)"
02:39:52 <ais523> note that "instead of attacking" is kind-of needed, because otherwise it'd probably be an activated ability with a target
02:40:00 <quintopia> you get one guess at any of the things google autocompletes "how to catch up on" to
02:40:03 <ais523> and then steamflogger boss's text would look different
02:40:15 <shachaf> Why would it have to do with attacking?
02:41:09 <ais523> I needed some way for it to not be an activated ability
02:41:13 <ais523> which means it has to be a special action
02:41:23 -!- Phantom__Hoover has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer).
02:41:24 <ais523> then I looked for something that would have a reason to be a special action rather than an activated ability
02:41:33 <ais523> replacing an attack is one way to do that, as that's a cost that an activated ability can't have
02:41:50 <shachaf> Why wouldn't it be an activated ability?
02:42:20 <ais523> how would you phrase this mechanic as an activated ability?
02:42:56 <ais523> (note that in early design, outlast replaced an attack, but it was changed to a sorcery-speed tap ability during development to make the way it worked clearer; that changes the way it works though)
02:43:15 <shachaf> Ah, that's what you meant.
02:44:03 <shachaf> I guess there wouldn't be a reason to say "assemble a Contraption" instead of just "assemble" for a lot of things I was thinking of.
02:44:47 <shachaf> How about: {T}: Assemble. "assemble" means you flip a coin or roll a die or something, and do different things depending on what you got.
02:45:04 <shachaf> A Contraption is a kind of token you might assemble.
02:45:46 <ais523> it probably doesn't work rules-grammatically, but the best design I've seen has "assemble a Contraption" mean "place a Contraption artifact token into play", and the cards that assemble contraptions have static abilities that grant abilities to contraptions
02:45:54 <ais523> in much the same way that slivers grant abilities to other slivers
02:46:04 <ais523> riggers grant abilities to contraptions
02:46:10 <shachaf> Why doesn't it work rules-grammatically?
02:46:22 <shachaf> The way I put it, with the random chance.
02:46:26 <ais523> steamflogger boss would be templated as "assemble an additional contraption"
02:46:38 <ais523> because the assembler wouldn't matter for that mechanic
02:47:05 <shachaf> Maybe it can assemble a contraption during combat, based on what creature is blocking it or something?
02:48:32 <shachaf> Seems like there are a lot of cases where the assembler could matter.
02:49:49 <Etaoin> have you guys ever tried putting ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) into google translate and have it pronounce it?
02:50:10 <shachaf> I try not to put that anywhere.
02:50:21 <shachaf> Including my IRC channels.
02:51:04 <shachaf> Oh, Contraption is an artifact type.
02:57:43 <HackEgo> /hackenv/bin/`: line 4: nuke: command not found
02:57:58 <HackEgo> nuke it from orbit? ¯\(°_o)/¯
02:58:21 <shachaf> it would be just as good without the `
03:00:06 <zzo38> I think that a planeswalker with protection from creatures can still be attacked, but will not receive any damage as a result of the attack.
03:01:26 <zzo38> But of course I do not know what "assemble" is. Contraption is a subtype of artifacts though; that is already defined.
03:02:45 <coppro> zzo38: correct about pro: creatures
03:03:48 <zzo38> I cannot think of anything that "assemble" might mean that would have SteamFlogger Boss to make sense anyways.
03:04:24 <hppavilion[1]> That moment when somebody tries to explain to you that you're wrong thinking that this number is big, and they give you a googol for comparison
03:04:35 <hppavilion[1]> After you said "I eat Graham's Number for breakfast"
03:04:43 <ais523> zzo38: I agree that it wouldn't receive damage, and hadn't thought of that before you mentioned it
03:05:05 <ais523> now I'm wondering if there's any way to give a planeswalker protection from creatures using existing cards
03:05:26 <ais523> (I have a strong suspicion that if there is, at least one of mycosynth lattice and enchanted evening will be involved)
03:06:02 <coppro> I know how to do it, but I'm going to see if there's a way without that ;)
03:07:18 <coppro> have a teferi emblem, a gideon, a concerted effort, and a beloved chaplain
03:07:25 <coppro> animate gideon in response to concerted effort trigger
03:07:26 <shachaf> `card-by-name enchanted evening
03:07:28 <HackEgo> Enchanted Evening \ 3(w/u)(w/u) \ Enchantment \ All permanents are enchantments in addition to their other types. \ SHM-R
03:07:57 <ais523> I think there's a much easier way: animate gideon, enchant with spirit mantle
03:08:04 <ais523> (admittedly it falls off at end of turn, so it isn't very interesting, but you can do it)
03:08:20 <shachaf> `card-by-name spirit mantle
03:08:21 <HackEgo> Spirit Mantle \ 1W \ Enchantment -- Aura \ Enchant creature \ Enchanted creature gets +1/+1 and has protection from creatures. \ M12-U, PC2-U
03:08:58 <ais523> this is unless there's a gideon that can stay animated for multiple turns
03:09:10 <coppro> `card-by-name concerted effort
03:09:12 <HackEgo> Concerted Effort \ 2WW \ Enchantment \ At the beginning of each upkeep, creatures you control gain flying until end of turn if a creature you control has flying. The same is true for fear, first strike, double strike, landwalk, protection, trample, and vigilance. \ RAV-R
03:09:20 <coppro> though mine actually allows this to happen off-turn
03:11:09 <ais523> it's easier with un-cards
03:11:16 <ais523> as you can just use staying power to keep gideon animated indefinitely
03:11:23 <ais523> (that said, staying power doesn't actually work rules-wise, most likely)
03:11:23 <shachaf> `card-by-name staying power
03:11:27 <HackEgo> Staying Power \ 2W \ Enchantment \ As long as Staying Power is in play, "until end of turn" and "this turn" effects don't end. \ UNH-R
03:11:30 <ais523> (and even if it did it'd be completely broken)
03:11:58 <shachaf> What about a sorcery with an "until end of turn" version of Staying Power?
03:12:39 <ais523> shachaf: it'd still last forever, wouldn't it? :-P
03:12:48 <ais523> the enchantment version is at least removable
03:13:05 <zzo38> I once made up a card that says: Skip all cleanup steps.
03:13:08 <ais523> (actually I misremembered the card, I thought it was an instant that deleted "until end of turn" or "this turn" from cards)
03:13:30 <ais523> zzo38: does that prevent "until end of turn" effects ending?
03:13:51 <pikhq> Thankfully, as it's an UNH card, the comprehensive rules don't have to think about the exact implications of that card.
03:13:56 <ais523> actually, does it cause damage to stay marked permanently? I think it would but I'm not sure
03:14:30 <zzo38> Rule 514.2 ends "until end of turn" effects and removes all marked damage.
03:14:37 <ais523> this is why ending the turn doesn't skip the cleanup step, and why triggers during the cleanup step cause a second cleanup step after they resolve
03:14:37 <zzo38> That is part of the cleanup step.
03:14:52 <ais523> now I'm wondering if there's a way to get an infinite loop of cleanup steps
03:15:08 <moon__> Someone has generously offered to give hbot a server
03:15:35 <ais523> preferably a mandatory one (you could get an optional one if manamorphose got madness somehow and there was an ROE emrakul in your library)
03:15:49 <zzo38> Yes, the rules are that, if there are any pending triggers or state based actions during a cleanup step, then the active player gets priority; if any player gets priority during a cleanup step, then there is another cleanup step instead of the next turn.
03:15:58 <pikhq> ais523: Then you'd be able to force a tie.
03:16:00 <shachaf> ais523: What about a card that terminates an "until X" effect early?
03:16:12 <shachaf> I guess there's no way to specify effects.
03:16:28 <ais523> I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work in the rules, although I'm pretty sure they'd never print it
03:16:35 <zzo38> You can't target effects. Only players, objects, and zones can be targeted.
03:16:54 <ais523> but the only reason you can't target effects is that the rules say you can't
03:17:15 <shachaf> Do effects exist in some zone or something?
03:17:32 <shachaf> What are effects? We just don't know.
03:17:37 <ais523> ugh, Gatherer text search matches the name of a card if it's using it tor efer to itself
03:18:01 -!- spockers has quit (Quit: bye http://i.imgur.com/nkzOWAv.jpg).
03:18:02 <shachaf> It's at most one extra result.
03:18:45 <ais523> more than one if you're looking for a single word that exists within multiple card names
03:18:56 <ais523> fwiw, I've been vaguely considering writing my own TCG rules
03:19:04 <ais523> and I'd have cards use first-person pronouns to refer to themselves
03:19:05 -!- spockers has joined.
03:19:16 <ais523> it's short, clear, and doesn't change based on context
03:19:52 <shachaf> Though I think the "trading card" aspect of mtg is kind of scow unless your goal is to make money.
03:19:58 <ais523> anyway, looks like it's only possible to give madness to cards that don't already have them if they're creatures
03:20:03 <Sgeo_> :( I searched for Pentagonal Dreams, and found a video claiming to be the Enigma OST. It is not.
03:20:08 <Sgeo_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y3s2sBr0qA
03:20:19 <ais523> Sgeo_: Enigma's OST is available from the source repo
03:20:37 <ais523> although pentagonal dreams is an s3m, which I had to convert to ogg to get my media player to understand it
03:21:38 <ais523> shachaf: I think the solution to that (if you even want to use the TCG model) is to have a cap on singles prices, implemented via a standing offer to sell any card for a given specific price, and just printing more cards to keep up with demand via that mechanism
03:21:38 <zzo38> One way to convert s3m->ogg is to use my "playmod" program, taking the s3m as input and pipe the output to sox and tell it to write a ogg format output.
03:21:50 <ais523> (a likely price would be around the price of a booster)
03:21:59 <ais523> alternatively you could use the LCG model, which I rather like
03:22:06 <zzo38> I don't like that either that it matches the name of the card to refer to itself, and I also don't like that reminder text is included and matched for searches in Gatherer.
03:22:35 <zzo38> I would use a different kind of model to make the card game and I think I have described it on here before.
03:22:51 <ais523> if you did, I either missed it or can't remember it
03:23:04 <ais523> hmm, perhaps I should write out the rules of my tcg/lcg/whatever
03:23:08 <shachaf> ais523: The solution to what? Making money?
03:23:23 <ais523> shachaf: the solution to singles prices going too high
03:23:36 <shachaf> Are your cards computer-interpretable?
03:23:44 <Sgeo_> Ok, so the YouTube video is espirit.ogg
03:24:40 <ais523> shachaf: my current thoughts have been that all abilities are keyworded, but reminder text has rules meaning and so the keywords don't need to be placed in the rules unless they're defined without reminder text
03:24:43 -!- kalippo has joined.
03:24:46 <ais523> I'm not sure if the reminder text would be machine-readable
03:24:48 <HackEgo> kalippo: Welcome to the international hub for esoteric programming language design and deployment! For more information, check out our wiki: <http://esolangs.org/>. (For the other kind of esoterica, try #esoteric on EFnet or DALnet.)
03:24:58 <ais523> there's tension between that, and making it fit on the card
03:25:11 <ais523> OTOH the keywords would be machine-readable but you'd still have to program their effects separately
03:25:22 <shachaf> I'd be happier with keywords being part of a standard library rather than a core language.
03:25:40 <ais523> you make up a new card effect
03:25:47 <ais523> if it's never seen before you make up a new keyword name to go with it
03:25:56 <ais523> that way, you don't have to decide in advance whether you want to be able to care about it or not
03:26:20 <ais523> (this should fix the problem with M:tG tribal, hopefully, where they decided it was a failure as it wasn't retrofitted onto cards that should have had it)
03:27:21 <pikhq> I'm fairly fond of the LCG model, personally.
03:27:24 <ais523> I wouldn't define keywords in the rules, probably more like in some sort of "evergreen keywords booklet" that would be included in the rules for convenience
03:27:34 <ais523> like, shipped together
03:27:37 <ais523> rather than officially part of it
03:28:06 <zzo38> I would have a different kind. There is no reminder text. Keywords are defined in the rules, and the rules include computer code. There is also computer codes available per cards, both keyword and non-keyword effects. No booster packs; purchase a "set box", containing cards (grouped by rarity), rule book, a list of cards (to check if any are missing), and a DVD with all the computer codes to implement it.
03:28:25 <shachaf> But my computers don't have DVD drives.
03:28:41 <zzo38> Then you can download the same file from the internet.
03:29:01 <shachaf> I don't have a Gopher client either.
03:29:22 <izabera> there are several ff extensions
03:29:46 <zzo38> (If you have neither DVD nor internet, then too bad; you will have to retype it, or get someone to copy it to a media your computer does support.)
03:30:03 <hppavilion[1]> "A gazelle is just a giraffe, plotted logarithmically"
03:30:12 <ais523> anyway, two of my main focuses were to ensure that a) there's no hidden gamestate, you can always determine the gamestate by looking at where the cards are; b) the number of instances at which you can make a decision is fairly limited, and in particular if mechanics like priority are needed they're a visible part of the game rather than an obscure rule
03:30:14 <zzo38> You don't need the Firefox extension. You can use nc or curl to download the file (and it may be available over multiple protocols)
03:30:22 <hppavilion[1]> `learn A Gazelle is just a giraffe, plotted logarithmically
03:30:27 <HackEgo> Learned 'gazelle': A Gazelle is just a giraffe, plotted logarithmically
03:30:32 <ais523> Sgeo_: LCG is basically like a TCG, but cards are distributed as playsets of entire blocks rather than booster packs
03:30:35 <izabera> you get a much better ux with ff
03:30:53 <shachaf> ais523: If the game is implemented on a computer, you can create token-style cards to represent ongoing effects and so on much more easily.
03:30:56 <ais523> in Magic: the Gathering, very few people buy, say, a playset of every card in BFZ
03:31:08 <ais523> you can do it but it's incredibly expensive and not normally worth it
03:31:16 <ais523> in an LCG, doing that is much cheaper and the normal way to obtain cards
03:31:27 <Sgeo_> ais523, this kills pay2win?
03:31:29 <ais523> hppavilion[1]: it's a multi-holed torus
03:31:31 <izabera> hppavilion[1]: that's gross, stop it
03:31:41 <ais523> although M:tG is more pay-to-compete
03:31:55 <ais523> there's a ceiling beyond which spending more doesn't increase your odds of winning
03:32:06 <ais523> hppavilion[1]: nose, ears, mouth are all connected
03:32:10 <hppavilion[1]> Huh, I suppose you can't merge nostrils with the mouth
03:32:34 <shachaf> Humans are significantly more complicated, even up to homeomorphism.
03:32:50 <zzo38> For my card game design the computer would be optional. But it does help, because the computer code for the game can define the rules precisely and clearly enough. It can be literate programming, in order to print out the book with computer codes too, to read it and do even without computer.
03:33:01 <hppavilion[1]> shachaf: We're pretending that humans are solid, aside from the open areas a camera could get to by going in through any exposed orifices
03:33:06 <ais523> I think a computer helps because you often want to play the game remotely
03:33:30 <hppavilion[1]> ais523: Is there a proper topological way to merge the nostrils into the mouth?
03:33:32 <zzo38> You will have to pay extra if you want to use the official servers. If you implement your own server then the game can be played for free on computer.
03:33:40 <hppavilion[1]> Ears are obviously irrelevant, because they stop partway into the body
03:35:39 <shachaf> zzo38: Why not make money by selling advertisements and users' personal information?
03:36:26 <hppavilion[1]> I woke up today and realized I should start a megachurch
03:36:37 <hppavilion[1]> I'm an atheist who wants a shitton of money and I have flexible morals
03:36:46 <izabera> how is a megachurch different from a church?
03:37:19 <hppavilion[1]> It's basically a way to mass-produce normal churching, AND turn a profit doing it
03:37:42 <shachaf> if only your morals were flexible enough for a gigachurch
03:38:03 <zzo38> shachaf: That is a possibility, although I do not like that. Even in any case, advertisements and/or payment and/or whatever is only for the official servers and not if you set up your own.
03:38:14 <izabera> hppavilion[1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y1xJAVZxXg
03:38:30 <zzo38> (If you set up your own, they can be used on LAN as well as internet, and possibly other things too if you modify the program to support them.)
03:38:52 <shachaf> zzo38: But you could forbid users from running the game on their own, you can make more money.
03:39:25 <zzo38> No. It should be possible everyone can do, so that it is free (as in speech), and to make the rules understandable.
03:40:01 <zzo38> Still, such things as ratings and fancy graphcs and sound effect are only available on the official server (unless someone implement clones of these features).
03:40:18 -!- Etaoin has quit (Quit: swooooosh~~~).
03:40:41 <zzo38> (And, of course, official server also help to do play against random opponent, and stuff like that too.)
03:42:01 <shachaf> Why shouldn't fancy graphics be free as in speech?
03:42:03 <zzo38> So, both official and unofficial has their own exclusive features even though both include open-source rules for the game.
03:42:21 <ais523> shachaf: M:tG has at least two unofficial clones that haven't been shut down yet even though they're blatant copyright infringements
03:42:23 <zzo38> shachaf: It can, if someone makes an unofficial version of such thing! Otherwise it is not.
03:42:33 <ais523> (and IIRC WotC(aHS) is trying to shut down at least one)
03:42:41 <shachaf> ais523: Aren't there also a bunch of clones that have been shut down?
03:42:54 <ais523> not to mention games like Hex which are M:tG with the serial numbers filed off and just enough rules changes to dodge patents
03:43:06 <ais523> shachaf: I can't remember the details, IIRC it's complex
03:43:20 <ais523> it might have been that a website distributing one was shut down but the program itself is still developed by other means, or something like that
03:43:41 <zzo38> I think it is that binaries are not distributed and you must compile from source, or something like that?
03:44:52 <zzo38> Some things usable only with unofficial servers for my design would be LAN play, experimental custom cards/sets, custom rule variants, etc.
03:45:56 <shachaf> Wouldn't you rather make more money by forbidding that?
03:46:28 <zzo38> Some things usable only with official servers would be ratings, global leaderboards, fancy sound effects and graphics, automatic updates, play against random opponent, lobby, etc.
03:46:50 <zzo38> shachaf: The goal would be to make a card game, not to earn money, though. Earn money is secondary.
03:49:47 <zzo38> (The rules engine would be 100% FOSS so you are free to examine it to learn the rules better, modify it, port it to another computer, or whatever else you want. It may be AGPL3 in order to provide some kind of business protection as well as FOSS, so that any modified games you host to public cannot be made secret.)

03:55:31 -!- hppavilion[1] has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds).
03:56:10 <zzo38> One reason to omit the fancy graphics and sound effects for the free version is to reduce disk space and memory usage. There can be a license exception like: The company that design this game is allowed to give anyone permission (possibly with conditions attached) to use this software under LGPL3 instead. If you modify this program, you may choose to either keep or remove this exception.
04:01:57 <zzo38> This is not quite enough. It also need to say that this additional permission cannot remove the requirement that anyone who exposes the program that links to it, whether on a server or otherwise, must still release the source code of the rules engine and card data including changes made, under AGPL3 or later version.

04:03:03 <HackEgo> Learned 'human': Humans are significantly more complicated, even up to homeomorphism.
04:04:48 <zzo38> ais523: Yes, that is a possibility. However, this way I suggested would ensure that the rules match (and therefore there are no hidden game rules), and that if someone experiments with custom rules and they become successful, that they can be included in the official server too.
04:05:11 <ais523> zzo38: the company could use different rules in their released binaries anyway

04:09:53 <shachaf> wisdom/gazelle seems unjustified.
04:10:05 <zzo38> The purpose of the removable license exception would be so that as long as people who make rule variants do not object to it, they can be included in the official veration. Also I would insist to make it that the free and commercial versions of the computer game would use the exact same rules, although the user interface (and other options that do not affect the game rules) may differ; the paper version would also use the exact same rules (this is

12:19:12 <Koen_> 'c' is only pronounced k in front of an a, u or o, though
12:19:32 <Koen_> and q is always followed by a silent u, except when it's followed by a nonsilent u
12:19:51 <Koen_> like in piqûre (notice the ^ to emphasis on the u not being silent)
12:20:20 <Koen_> yes, c is pronounced k before a consonant

19:31:56 <int-e> oh it's b_jonas' gatherer personality
19:32:24 <wob_jonas> and the other card is called B.F.M., not BMM actually
19:36:49 <int-e> too bat the snot thing isn't a real card... it'd be fun to see the oracle card text evolve as people try to stick snots to other player's snots, for example...
19:37:36 <int-e> (sure it becomes a single creature, but who controls it? if it is tapped, will it still be tapped afterwards?)
19:37:39 -!- jaboja has joined.
19:37:58 <wob_jonas> int-e: trying to stick to an opponent's S.N.O.T. is a lesser, problem, can easily be solved be banning that, and that's exactly what they've done in the SNOT they printed. That's not the biggest problem.
19:38:16 <wob_jonas> There are bigger rules difficulties.

19:42:38 <Taneb> Ngevd is (more or less) my initials
19:49:17 <wob_jonas> Eg. what happens if Flickerform is attached to a glued new SNOT card, and you use Flickerform's ability on it.
19:49:35 <wob_jonas> Both cards return, but what will Flickerform (and possibly other auras) get attached to?

22:33:06 <myname> is "he made her duck" actually valid to say if you want to express that a male transformed some girl into a bird? i am missing prepositions in that
22:33:44 <Koen_> well it might mean he conceived her pet duck
22:34:11 <myname> well yeah, it's the point to be ambigious
22:34:16 <Koen_> or that he shot at her and she had to duck
22:34:28 <myname> i found it with 5 different meanings
22:34:32 <Taneb> myname, "he made her a duck" is what you want, or "he made her into a duck"
22:34:44 <Taneb> "he made her duck" means "he made her bend down to avoid some projectile"
22:34:47 <Koen_> pretty sure he made her duck is correct
22:34:58 <Cale> Not into a bird -- without the 'a' in 'a duck' it's just like, duck meat.
22:35:01 <myname> Taneb: it could also mean he prepared a meal for her
22:35:03 <Koen_> well I would be if I was british
22:35:14 <Taneb> myname, yes, that too
22:35:40 <myname> Taneb: it could also mean he used the duck that belonged to her and prepared a meal
22:35:40 <Cale> Yeah, probably referring to the food that was made
22:35:47 <Cale> (in that case)
22:36:01 <myname> again: the point of it was tp be ambigious
22:36:17 <myname> i am not asking what the meaning is, i wondered because of the last example
22:36:23 <myname> which was transforming

23:25:35 <hppavilion[1]> Hm... are amendments to the US constitution their own separate body (the important part that lays out the big laws), or are they more like Constitutional Errata? Just changing what the main part of the Constitution already said?
23:26:58 <hppavilion[1]> Oh, huh, here's an interesting thing that should have been obvious that I forgot about
23:27:29 <hppavilion[1]> The president has to have been born a US citizen (not necessarily born /in/ the country- a US citizen parent will generally do too)
23:28:05 <hppavilion[1]> But the line of succession includes positions that do not share this requirement- in fact, the Cabinet or even Speaker of the House can be comprised of non-citizens

23:31:58 <zzo38> IATA are three letters, so we can try to see if it is work
23:32:31 <zzo38> It doesn't; you need ICAO codes. (ICAO codes are much better than IATA anyways)
