00:00:22 <wob_jonas> you think spaces are bad? they have the date format messed up in one. I've always renamed the files after downloading
00:00:24 <zzo38> Is the URL similar?
00:00:35 <wob_jonas> no, I found that on my computer, in a different directory
00:01:08 <zzo38> I don't need to rename the file after downloading, if it can be given a name while downloading instead (I just use curl to download, usually)
00:02:37 <zzo38> If you put the file on arin.ga or whatever then I can download it; if you find a lot of more files rather than just one then you can send it by the email
00:06:58 <wob_jonas> MagicCompRules_20170707 => https://arin.ga/nfViXZ
00:07:41 <wob_jonas> although it's dated 2017-07-08 in the text
00:07:52 <zzo38> Yes I can see that
00:15:07 <wob_jonas> yawgatog might also have older versions downloadable but not linked, eg. https://yawgatog.com/resources/oracle/All%20Sets-2017-07-05.zip
00:15:13 <wob_jonas> you might find copies there that I don't have
00:18:35 <wob_jonas> this means I have comp rules versions from more than ten years ago. makes me feel old.
00:19:41 <wob_jonas> by the way, my oracle dumps are actually for the Legacy format
00:20:04 <wob_jonas> so they don't have the few dozen cards banned in Legacy and silver-bordered ones
00:20:15 <zzo38> I thought also making up some Magic: the Gathering cards of some of the characters and events of GURPS game I am in
00:20:22 <zzo38> I don't need silver-bordered ones
00:20:57 <zzo38> However, it is not even "pseudo-Vintage"; some cards are banned in Vintage too (but not in "pseudo-Vintage")
00:21:56 <wob_jonas> I had to filter on something, because if I don't give any criteria, Oracle won't return anything. in retrospect Vintage would have made more sense, but I guess back then I didn't care much about the cards banned in Legacy, because they were mostly old ones
00:22:13 <wob_jonas> I mean mostly old *expensive* cards
00:23:53 <zzo38> Filter by converted mana cost is less than one million; as far as I know, there is only one card (which is silver) that has a converted mana cost of one million and none have more than that.
00:23:58 <wob_jonas> It's a bit different these days, they reprinted Sol Ring in commander sets so it's no longer very expensive, and Mental Misstep is not expensive either
00:24:54 <wob_jonas> for the new oracle, I don't have a download script, they made it more complicated to download because you need to get the cards in many queries continued
00:25:11 <wob_jonas> you can't get most of them in a single html page like I did with the old oracle
00:27:07 <zzo38> Some people have made JSON files with the Magic: the Gathering Oracle texts
00:27:38 <wob_jonas> like Scryfall? I think their API uses JSONs
00:28:06 <zzo38> I mean just downloadable JSON files I have found, not a API
00:31:08 -!- LKoen has joined.
00:32:04 <zzo38> I also wanted to make the format for representing the card texts in a computer code, and could be like perhaps: <Counterspell> a :Card; :name "Counterspell", "Counterspell"@en; :mana-cost "UU"; :type :instant; :spell-ability [:counter [:target :spell]]. This can be used to implement a computer game; it could automatically compile into a C code or whatever. Xmage doesn't implement text editing effects, but this new way would do so.
00:32:44 -!- augur has joined.
00:32:54 <wob_jonas> zzo38: do you need the names of the cards in languages other than English? because that would be harder to obtain.
00:33:49 <zzo38> wob_jonas: No. (Although this proposed format for computer codes does allow other languages, I don't need them, either for this purpose or for just a archive of Oracle texts.)

01:19:44 <esowiki> [[User talk:Oerjan]] https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=54899&oldid=54893 * Oerjan * (+346) It was deleted
01:25:32 <zzo38> There are many functions in Scryfall which the SQLite virtual table mechanism does not yet support (you would still be able to write such queries, but those functions would be implemented on the client-side). This includes constraints with OR, negated conditions (in some cases), random selection, pagination, etc. (Some features can be implemented by the use of hidden columns, though.)
01:27:39 <zzo38> I did think of how to improve the virtual table mechanism in many ways, including to allow the sqlite3_declare_vtab() to, in addition to a CREATE TABLE statement, also zero or more CREATE INDEX statements, which ignore the usual rule that the functions it mentions must be deterministic. Another thing is the way to consume LIMIT/OFFSET clauses.
01:28:53 <zzo38> In this way, the virtual table implementation will be able to interpret a query such as SELECT * FROM "SCRYFALL" ORDER BY RANDOM() LIMIT 1; and automatically know to use the /cards/random request, rather than having to download everything.

01:36:00 <oerjan> probably goes well with beer
01:36:23 * oerjan vaguely thought that was just "bowling"
01:37:00 <shachaf> bowling day is tomorrow hth
01:37:16 <shachaf> I guess it's already tomorrow in your time zone.
01:37:52 <zzo38> It says there nine pins, which is difference from the ten pins and five pins bowling, isn't it?
01:37:57 <oerjan> "National Bowling Day is observed annually on the second Saturday in August."
01:38:17 <oerjan> 10 is the triangular one

02:20:42 <zzo38> I see nothing about National Bowling Day (or something similar) on the "calendar" command on my computer
02:25:44 -!- hexnewbiesq has joined.
02:30:08 <zzo38> The man page mentions that for calendar.christian and calendar.judaic that the system administrator should update them yearly. However, this is also needed for the calendar.pagan file. Also, there is the problem when in December you want to observe calendar for next year, or in January for previous year, and the use of the C preprocessor with a format that uses a syntax different than C programming.
02:30:51 <zzo38> (I also don't see Chinese New Year mentioned.)

02:33:27 <zzo38> So I thought, to make up a new kind of domain specific code for specifying dates, including dates of stuff that changes. It can then be compiled into a binary format, into files per year. You might keep only a few years at a time, but a user who want other years can keep their own local copies for other years farther into the past or future.
