00:27:59 <spruit11> 'Do something with format specifiers' they told. 'It'll be fun they' they told me.
00:42:11 <imode> I don't see how rule-based programming can be anywhere as fast as imperative programming. the hot loop of searching for which rule to match alone is going to take more time than a single instruction.
00:44:31 <zzo38> Depending on the programming language, it might be possible to make it fast after the program has been compiled.
00:46:47 <imode> I don't see how. my base case is rewrite rules over strings. the matcher logic for a given ruleset can be compiled down to a trie or a DFA, and that can be turned into native code, but in my tests, that's still too slow.
00:48:24 <zzo38> Well, I just made the suggestion.
00:50:09 <imode> yeah... it'd thrash the branch predictor.
00:59:02 <moony> if you're lucky and there's some pattern to it, you might be able to get a Zen (AMD Ryzen/Threadripper/EPYC lines) CPU to cooperate with the branches, but I think that's really it
01:06:41 <spruit11> That's just correct. Usually, rule-based languages or rewriters are slower than imperative programming. But they're still useful.
01:07:53 <spruit11> With Herculean effort you can sometimes compile programs down to their imperative counterpart, though. But usually not.
01:13:33 <imode> doubtful that it's possible with string rewriting.
01:15:01 <spruit11> Depends on the rules and what you think is the imperative counterpart to those rules. But in general, impossible.
01:18:21 <imode> it's sad because there's so many useful things about the paradigm. your state is just the current "fact store" (the string in the case of string rewriting) and the rules that are run against the fact store. how in the hell is prolog performant.
01:22:04 <spruit11> Haskell can do it sometimes. Something like: Take 'fac', analyze it as better strict, compile the matches to conditions, translate the recursion to a loop. Presto, same microcode as the C equivalent.
01:23:15 <spruit11> But that's a whole lot of compiler voodoo. I guess something like 40 manyears to arrive in that state.
01:24:06 <spruit11> The same effort as writing a compiler for a lazy functional language and then attach a normal C compiler with optimizations to it.
01:25:54 <imode> rule based programming is just full of conditions, though. the core loop is just if/else if/else if/else if/else if/else if/... unless you have a reasonable way of shortcutting that linear search.
01:26:53 <imode> even if you compiled that down to assembly, the basis would just be a bunch of branches.
01:30:52 <spruit11> There's a lot of additional voodoo in term rewriters to try and compile most of that out. Mostly -whatsitscalled- deforestation. Just preven intermediate things you match against from ever existing by clever fusion rules.
01:42:40 <imode> hm, I should look into that.

08:01:03 <rain1> Theorem. There are Turing computable partial functions that have no extension to a total Turing computable function. In particular, the partial function f defined so that f(n) = m if and only if the Turing machine with index n halts on input 0 with output m has no extension to a total computable function.

09:09:04 <rain1> so f is just eval([N(0)])
09:09:22 <rain1> M is taking in T and evaling [T(T)(0)] ?
09:09:28 <rain1> and not'ing its result
09:14:12 <int-e> Since f is passing an argument, I guess M should take two arguments, M(T,x) = if f([\x. `T`(`T`,x)]) = 1 then 0 else 1 )
09:14:35 <int-e> And as usual there's a substitution step involved.
09:14:45 <int-e> (as usual in those diagonalization constructions)
09:14:59 <rain1> oh and what properties is this M going to have?
09:15:58 <int-e> Then you look at f([\x. M([M],x)]).
09:16:53 <int-e> Meh, my notation isn't good enough.
09:18:11 <rain1> notationally, this stuff can be pretty awkward
09:18:12 <int-e> But the point is that M is supposed to reconstruct \x. M([M],x) from [M].
09:18:21 <rain1> maybe quasiquotes like in lisp would be good

11:30:37 <rain1> f(x) is defined for some values and the turing machine does not halt so it is not defined for other values

11:31:12 <rain1> i was thinking how nice it would be to assign types to turing machise

13:11:27 <rain1> I think the halting problem proof can be done at any level
13:11:33 <rain1> so lets call normal one level 0
13:11:38 <rain1> we showed Halt does not exist at level 0
13:11:56 <rain1> but assume Halt exists at level 1 (i.e. level 1 is turing machines with a halting oracle)
13:12:18 <myname> there is an esolang with that premise iirc
13:12:20 <rain1> we can't implement Halt_1 at this level
13:12:30 <rain1> Halt_1 being a decision procedure that tells you if a level 1 machine halts
13:12:46 <rain1> and we just use the same proof as the normal halting problem proof?
13:13:17 <myname> for each halting problem level you can solve, you will create a new one

15:39:31 <rain1> i just want to know this one thing
15:39:39 <rain1> but it seems to depend on a lot of theory
15:41:08 <rain1> its hard to untangle the notation
15:41:30 <rain1> I want a proof that the "uniform halting problem" is harder than the halting problem
15:41:43 <rain1> by UHP i mean: Deciding whether a turing machine halts on all inputs
15:42:06 <rain1> determining if a turing machine halts on N inputs (for any finite N) is equivalent to the halting problem
15:42:14 <rain1> but for all inputs it seems to be harder

15:58:56 <rain1> I think I can ask a really good question now
15:59:29 <rain1> How does a Turing machine with a Halt_1 oracle decide if a Turing machine halts on all inputs?
15:59:46 <rain1> A Halt_1 oracle means that we have the ability to decide if any Turing Machine with a halting oracle halts or not
16:03:10 <rain1> so we have 3 levels here: Basic TMs, TMs with a halting oracle (halt0), TMs with a halt1 oracle
16:04:10 <rain1> So we can implement some kind of level1 TM and ask if it halts to decide something about a level0 machine
16:05:16 -!- b_jonas has joined.
16:06:29 <rain1> no I just managed to ask this question which crystalizes exactly what I want to know
16:07:51 <rain1> although I need to prove 2 things actually: That the problem is not solvable on level 1 and it is solvable on level 2
16:09:47 <rain1> I think this works
16:10:26 <rain1> if !Halt0('T(n)'): return
16:10:54 <rain1> now when we ask Halt1(X(T)) we get an answer to whether T halts on all inputs or not

16:13:45 <rain1> the first part may be harder
16:13:55 <rain1> hopefully it is solvable
16:14:57 <rain1> So assume for contradiction that we can decide if a TM halts on all inputs or not, at level 1
16:15:27 <rain1> Then we have a total procedure Tot(T : TM0) which returns 0 if it's input is not total and 1 if it is
16:15:43 <rain1> we also have access to a halting oracle (Tot will have been implemented using this)
16:16:00 <rain1> so now it would be nice to perform some kind of diagonalization/liar construction to show this cannot happen

16:20:23 <b_jonas> "<spruit11> 'Do something with format specifiers' they told." => I'm sorry, you must have misunderstood me. I did mention formatted numeric output, but I didn't specifically mention format specifiers, it could have been raw format primitives too, and I would certainly never suggest new python style braced format specifiers, I HATE those, they're ruining the whole purpose of format specifiers that C and
16:20:29 <b_jonas> python perfected and making a mocking parody from them. If anyone told me they want to do a format parser, I'd suggest them to use C-like percent escapes (or common lisp-like tilde escapes if they prefer)
16:21:40 <b_jonas> nor would I ever suggest you to use a vararg formatting function in a curried language
16:22:38 <b_jonas> I program python, and I use the C-like formatting function, which is still there and supported and works *almost* well, except that for some reason they haven't added hex float output format to it yet, but that shouldn't be hard to fix
16:23:04 <rain1> one thing I would say is that it seems very hard to do a simple diagonalization proof
16:23:14 <rain1> because our primitive can only be applied to stuff at the level below
16:23:25 <rain1> whereas with turings proof: we assume halt can be applied to our own levle
16:23:35 <b_jonas> but even if you have a format parser, I'd suggest to add the underlying primitives to the public API too, so people can write their own format parser, and format afloating-point numbers in decimal without having to make a format pattern from it

17:03:02 <b_jonas> so it formats a signed 64-bit value, not an unsigned one
17:03:09 <b_jonas> how you would get libc to do that I have no idea
17:03:54 <b_jonas> I mean it doesn't even have format specifiers that format a signed integer as hex, if you try the number just gets interpreted as an unsigned number
17:05:29 <spruit11> Heh? Not sure what you asking but `fmt` defines the handlers for a large number of basic C types. So this is the handler which formats signed 64 bit integers.
17:05:53 <spruit11> Well, according to the system you're on.
17:06:24 <b_jonas> spruit11: which fmt? I mean libc's printf doesn't define such formatters. other formatting libraries might.
17:06:57 <spruit11> `fmt` is the library they're adding to C++20 as `std::format`.
17:06:57 <HackEso> fmt`? No such file or directory

17:14:50 <fizzie> Hey, I think I used fmt for something. It seemed sane.
17:15:15 -!- aaaaaa has joined.
17:15:43 <spruit11> The compilers are a bit slacking in adoption of it. But it's fine. I just ship with `fmt` for the moment.
17:16:53 <spruit11> Most of the work was looking whether it was implemented and then incorperating `fmt` instead.
17:17:28 <spruit11> Pretty sure by C++40 you'll have all the format specifiers you want.

17:22:43 <b_jonas> spruit11: you can probably use an implementation that's not in libstdc++ but elsewhere, such as in boost, that is close enough
17:23:00 <b_jonas> possibly with a namespace alias so it's easy to switch it over to a different implementation
17:23:24 <spruit11> I want to keep my dependencies to a minimum. I am already getting unsatisfied with libicu.
17:23:30 <fizzie> Near the end of the century, it's going to get seriously confusing how the 2096 C++96 actually post-dates C++98. The same with C standards.
17:23:33 <fizzie> IMO, they should've called C11 -> C111, C18 -> C118, C2x -> C12x. If it's good enough for tm_year, it should be good enough for standard abbreviations as well.
17:24:09 <fizzie> That would have also meant that publishing a new C standard in 2028 could've given us a C128.
17:25:03 <b_jonas> that said, I like C printf
17:25:17 <b_jonas> it's not perfect, but it's usually good enough
17:25:25 <b_jonas> better than most of the nonsense that they put in newer languages
17:26:01 <spruit11> Heh, I just assume there's some sanity behind it.

17:33:09 <zzo38> SQLite has its own printf, which can be called from C codes and from SQL codes. It is mostly like the C printf.

18:10:42 <fizzie> Reminds me of Beneath A Steel Sky for some reason.
18:11:12 <fizzie> (I don't even think it has any scene quite like that.)
18:13:23 <kmc> my friend texted me this morning "Is there life on Mars?"
18:19:09 <kmc> this is why I'm learning to grow mushrooms.
18:19:12 <kmc> they don't require sunlight
18:19:14 <kmc> not much, anyway
18:19:41 <int-e> fizzie: well, there's this in the intro: https://int-e.eu/~bf3/tmp/bass1.png
18:20:49 <int-e> somehow, I don't remember all that much of this game
18:22:22 <fizzie> Oh, maybe I subconsciously remembered that or something.
18:24:05 <fizzie> I sort of remember it had that thing where lower-class people live on the lower levels of the city, and you needed to work your way up (via puzzles, naturally).
18:24:56 <int-e> but most of it takes place indoors in steel blue decor
18:25:57 <fizzie> Oh, they've got a sequel out, like, just recently? Didn't know that at all.
18:28:33 <int-e> Hmm, could be interesting.
