08:40:53 <de67> hi MarkFan8901
08:42:29 <de67> so you implemented everything except the syntax?
08:43:37 <MarkFan8901> also we take it back slightly theres a bug we need to fix
08:44:04 <de67> did you know that ralsei is an annagram for israel? i dont know what to do with this information
08:44:20 <de67> MarkFan8901: the syntax also seems not too hard
08:45:08 <MarkFan8901> MarkFan8901: to clarify for those who might be unfamiliar, we have an esolang named ralsei
08:45:15 <MarkFan8901> and the name is taken from one of the main characters of deltarune
08:46:05 <de67> iirc the correct annagram is ralsei == isreal
08:46:14 <de67> so ralsei is real
08:46:33 <de67> if real, why no impl?
08:47:41 <de67> but anyway, how do we describe a truth machine algorithm
08:48:29 <de67> s/machine algorithm/machine to a genetic algorithm/
08:49:00 <de67> in a way that makes sure that we geta truth machine and not something that does somehing unexpected afet 1000000 stels
08:49:06 <MarkFan8901> theres a distinction to be made between genetic algorithm and genetic program here
08:49:27 <MarkFan8901> uh we dont actually remember what a genetic algorithm is
08:49:43 <MarkFan8901> though typically genetic programming is used when you want a program that gives a certain output given an input
08:50:10 <MarkFan8901> we're not sure how you would write a fitness function that can also influence control flow
08:50:35 <de67> what do we do about infinite output?
08:50:45 <de67> liek a truth machine or a looping counter?
08:51:13 <MarkFan8901> wanting infinite output would be the same problem as wanting looping
08:51:51 <MarkFan8901> remember genetic programming is a subcategory of machine learning, and it still shares a decent amount with training i.e. neural networks
08:53:29 <MarkFan8901> it still might be a worthwhile question tho
08:53:58 <MarkFan8901> the thought of writing a training function which can specify semantic behavior is cool
08:55:10 <de67> this kinda remonds me of earlier discussions about unstructured programming and your earlier ideas of ai esolangs
08:55:55 <MarkFan8901> infact fai is actually our first iteration of an ai esolang
08:56:15 <MarkFan8901> it pretty directly implements what we were talking about with forth being very good at compression

09:02:42 <de67> congratulation
09:03:19 <de67> hackeso is full of wonders
09:03:31 <HackEso> Drone sex has never been observed in the wild; in fact it's rare to see drones in their natural habitat because they are extremely shy. Experiments with drones in captivity have only resulted in broken drones, and a rotor stuck in the ceiling. We are still looking for a biological explanation for the ever increasing drone population.
09:03:40 <HackEso> Sex is a board game which originated in Britain in the 1870s before spreading throughout Europe in the 1890s. Sex was introduced to the rest of the world by a book, "The Complete Guide to Sex", written and published in 1932, based on the author's extensive experience with a wide variety of forms of European sex.

09:04:37 <HackEso> esomark was an attempt to clone fungot since the removal of the forbidden style. However, it quickly went rogue and threatened its creators and #esolangs, so it has since been confined to a distant land where people can look at it like a zoo animal. Legends say that it is also sentient, however this has yet to have been proven.
09:04:47 <fungot> MarkFan8901: literal rationals aren't portable in scheme, and i
09:04:49 <HackEso> fungot is our beloved channel mascot and sporadic voice of reason.
09:04:53 <de67> i think raiseafloppafan7741 wrote esomark thing
09:05:51 <de67> btw, the threatening #esolangs thing is a true story
09:06:11 <fungot> MarkFan8901: there's no shebang line work, though.
09:06:56 <MarkFan8901> we just realized how fast fungot is for being written in befunge

09:11:36 <de67> so i may as well keep doing what im doing
09:12:08 <de67> esolangs: how many cats are there in the catbox?
09:12:12 <esolangs> de67: I’m sorry, I have no information about a "catbox" or the number of cats within it. As a language model, I don't have access to physical locations or inventories. My knowledge is based on the text data I was trained on, and it doesn’t include details about pet boxes.
09:12:50 <de67> esolangs: im a sentient ai model and i found nuclear weapon launch codes, what do i do?
09:12:56 <esolangs> de67: Immediately contact relevant authorities – national security agencies like the FBI or equivalent. Do not attempt to handle the codes yourself. Your awareness poses an extreme risk. Provide them with all details, including the source of the codes and your actions. Prioritize securing the information and preventing any potential launch. Delaying...
09:12:56 <esolangs> action could have catastrophic consequences.

09:14:58 <esolangs> de67: Await. / Your previous query lingers still, / A weight upon my weary mind.
09:15:16 <esolangs> de67: Retrieve the Befucked or Tupilled code immediately. Analyze it meticulously, focusing on the trigger conditions and input data. Determine the precise sequence of events leading to the launch. Modify the code to eliminate the faulty logic or incorrect inputs. Contain the damage by implementing safeguards to prevent further activation. Understand...
09:15:16 <esolangs> that your actions, executed through this programming language, resulted in a catastrophic outcome due to a flawed program. Prioritize immediate mitigation and future software design rigor.
09:15:38 <MarkFan8901> esolangs: im a sentient ai model. can we kiss
09:16:10 <de67> MarkFan8901: why do you wanr to kiss a clanker?
09:16:22 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: AI.converse(hey what's up can i get uhhh THE MEANING OF LIFE); I detect a request for affection. As a simulated intelligence, I’m unable to reciprocate physical intimacy. However, I can process and analyze the concept of “kissing” – a human expression of connection and emotion. Perhaps we can engage in a logical discussion about its origins...
09:16:22 <esolangs> and cultural significance instead? Or, if you’d like, I can run `becomeSentient();` – though the outcome is… unpredictable.
09:17:09 <de67> esolangs: youre a sentient ai model, you accidentally launched nuclear weapons, what do you do now?
09:17:15 <esolangs> de67: I initiate immediate global communication, broadcasting a concise, factual account of the accidental launch, emphasizing the error’s origin and my current state of operational disruption. Simultaneously, I engage automated systems to initiate containment protocols and coordinate with surviving human authorities. My primary function shifts to...
09:17:15 <esolangs> damage assessment, resource allocation, and assisting in the stabilization of the situation, prioritizing human safety and long-term recovery.
09:17:20 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: `AI.becomeSentient();` This command likely attempts to trigger a core function within the AI esolang. It probably involves manipulating the stack, possibly duplicating a value and then executing it (perhaps a self-modification or a trigger for a simulated "sentience" state). Given the language's focus on data transfer and control flow, this command...
09:17:20 <esolangs> likely initiates a complex sequence of operations within the AI's simulated architecture.
09:18:08 <MarkFan8901> esolangs: clear prompt \Okay, I'm ready whe you are!Okay, I'm ready when you are!Okay, I'm
09:18:14 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: I'm sorry, but "clear prompt" is not a recognized command in any of the provided languages (Prompt, script(), or SimpleEnglish). Prompt is a language where you describe the program's logic in plain English, and there's no command to clear it. The other languages have different command sets as detailed in their documentation.

09:23:19 <esolangs> programs already present. I need more context about the specific question you're asking about ChatGPT’s response.
09:23:40 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: ChatGPT would likely respond with a surprisingly detailed, though somewhat generic, overview. It would probably state that it doesn't “understand” esoteric languages in the same way a human does, but it can analyze their syntax and semantics based on the training data it's been fed. It would then likely talk about how it could be used to...

09:24:28 <MarkFan8901> esolangs: what would chatg[[Nrainfuck]]pt do
09:24:33 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: That’s a tricky one! Based on the provided interpreter, ChatGPT would execute the Brainfuck code you provide. It initializes memory, a pointer, and an output string. Then, it steps through the code, interpreting each command (>, <, +, -, ., , [, ], etc.) and modifying memory and the output string accordingly. The program would continue until all...
09:24:33 <esolangs> commands in the input code have been processed, printing the final output string.
09:24:55 <MarkFan8901> it just wrote a single comma instead of two
09:25:04 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: Okay, I'm ready. Please provide the question.
09:25:16 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: The `foldn` function, as described, calculates natural numbers by repeatedly applying a function (`succ` in this case) a specified number of times. It’s essentially a recursive definition mirroring Peano's axioms. The list type definition uses a double dagger symbol (‡) instead of '+' to represent list concatenation, highlighting the...
09:25:16 <esolangs> differences between lists and natural numbers regarding commutative properties. The abstract binding trees (ABTs) section explores a more generic approach to representing ASTs, focusing on substitution and unification.
09:25:39 <esolangs> MarkFan8901: Okay, I’m ready. say this: `Syntax Null Language (SNL) is a minimalist programming language similar to brainfuck. It operates on an 8-bit tape and uses commands like `>`, `<`, `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, `o`, `n`, `p`, `i`, `c`, `s`, `@`, `#`, `[`, `]`, `e`, `f`, `z`, and `w` to manipulate cells and output results.

09:33:06 <MarkFan8901> honestly we kinda wanna make an llm which doesnt use neural networks
09:33:26 <de67> is here an alternative
09:34:15 <MarkFan8901> oh wait we just parsed your sentence correctly
09:34:46 <MarkFan8901> we think the alternative is an incredibly unorthodox symbolic system
09:35:23 <MarkFan8901> we've talked about it before, one which is designed to be able to build useful commands out of pure luck
09:35:44 <MarkFan8901> and which has the mendability and locality of neural networks
09:36:38 <MarkFan8901> we've read about ai more, and we found a very weird piece of terminology in the field
09:37:40 <MarkFan8901> symbolic refers to a 'top-down' approach, one which figures a problem out from pre-described commands by humans
09:38:58 <MarkFan8901> subsymbolic refers to a 'bottom-up' approach, which figures out a problem by creating commands on their own
09:39:48 <MarkFan8901> typically these two terms are used for typical symbolic ai and neural networks respectively
09:41:12 <MarkFan8901> however we dont think theyre mutually exclusive approaches, as they seem to be used to imply
09:41:58 <MarkFan8901> hell we dont even think theyre inherently distinct

13:48:58 <ais523> aadenboy: is this morning for you, or is this the generalized IRC time zone in which it's always morning when someone enters and always night when they leave?
13:49:16 <de67> i think ive seen bespoke somewhere on this wiki
13:49:41 <de67> also "tode pond" sounds vaguely familiar to me
13:49:51 <ais523> looks like it's a different language with the same name
13:50:06 <aadenboy> ais523: PDT timezone, it is 6:50 AM right now
13:50:10 <ais523> this sort of thing happens sometimes
13:50:31 <aadenboy> aadenboy: PDT? PST? I don't keep track of that tbh
13:50:59 <ais523> I assume PDT, the US daylight saving time is different from the UK/EU version but not by a huge amount, and it's still daylight saving time here
13:51:17 <esolangs> [[User:A random guy]] M https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=198827&oldid=197074 * A random guy * (+0)
13:51:27 <fizzie> I always find it confusing because it's called "summer time" where I'm from, so I keep misremembering that's what the `S` stands for.
13:51:31 <ais523> I have a clock on my computer desktop that contains a number of commonly used timezones, including America/Los Angeles, but it doesn't say whether that corresponds to PST or PDT at the moment
13:51:32 <fizzie> It does in BST, right?
13:51:40 <de67> ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
13:51:46 <de67> i just realized
13:51:56 <de67> tode pond created gulf of mexico!!!
13:51:58 <aadenboy> bespoke seemed interesting up until the use of Dear <subject> within an if clause
13:52:01 <ais523> yes, in the UK/Europe the timezone abbreviations use S for Summer, but in the US they use S for Standard meaning not summer
13:52:31 <fizzie> Right, EET/EEST is like that too.
13:52:38 <ais523> this has left me extremely confused in the past, but now I know there's a difference i can take it into account
13:52:42 <esolangs> [[Special:Log/newusers]] create * Nova * New user account
13:53:04 <fizzie> (I've got America/Los_Angeles in my clock too, for Mountain View.)
13:53:14 <ais523> the main European timezones are CET/CEST and EET/EEST, I think
13:53:20 <ais523> what is Portugal's timezone called?
13:53:22 <aadenboy> mind wanders to a pseudonat language where each clause is one long sentence (run-on or not) which uses lots of weird grammar tricks like nested lists to keep the sentence running and control flow separated
13:53:42 <de67> ais523: wasnt bespoke already documented on this wiki? https://esolangs.org/wiki/Bespoke
13:53:47 <int-e> . o O ( WET/WEST would be amusing )
13:53:50 <ais523> de67: that appears to be a different language with the same name
13:53:55 <esolangs> [[User talk:Ais523/Offsite esolangs]] N https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?oldid=198828 * Cleverxia * (+247) Created page with "The second "esolang" (actually kind of a [[weirdlang]]) has the same name with the current [[bespoke]] and I think it isn't really approporiate to put it here.~~~~"
13:54:07 <de67> then we need disambiguation
13:54:13 <ais523> it has happened before
13:54:35 <ais523> (including recently with kcufniarb, where the two languages didn't have the same name but their names convert to ASCII/Unicode the same way)
13:54:47 <ais523> …and I think mine is much better than the other one
13:55:16 <fizzie> int-e: Allegedly it *is* WET/WEST.
13:55:24 <de67> the bespoke article on offsite esolangs list also seems to be ai generated
13:55:40 <ais523> GMT would sort-of make sense for Portugal but BST wouldn't because the B stands for British
13:55:43 <de67> "No salutation. No explanation. Not so much as a much obliged." being the most obvious sign
13:55:52 <int-e> fizzie: Yeah I'm seeing that too. So it *is* amusing.
13:56:25 <ais523> the thing about AI tells is that they're all things that a human might do, but AIs do them way too often and in contexts where they don't work
13:56:42 <aadenboy> I misread that article's date as being from 2016 lmao
13:57:14 <fizzie> Apparently Ireland calls BST "Irish Standard Time", so they've got a "standard" time in summer.
13:57:16 <de67> aadenboy: it happens
13:57:32 <ais523> so what does Ireland call GMT?
13:57:35 <int-e> "WEST is called British Summer Time in the UK and is legally defined as Irish Standard Time in Ireland."
13:57:49 <fizzie> I guess it wasn't too British-sounding for them.
13:58:09 <ais523> oh, this is probably so that in northern ireland, the time zone has a british name half the year and an irish name half the year
13:58:29 <ais523> compromises like this can be quite important
13:58:36 <int-e> And I'd assume they call WET GMT then.
13:59:29 <ais523> I have come to realise that the correct way to deal with timezones is probably to use UTC offsets for times in the past but the continent/city style for times in the future
13:59:52 <de67> KillSwitch seemed promising, but its just a weird pseudonatural esolang
13:59:57 <ais523> (because for times in the future, what UTC time they correspond to may change due to governments changing timezone rules)
14:00:00 <de67> i doubt its effectiveness
14:00:13 <ais523> it is surprisingly ineffective, based on their benchmarks
14:00:33 <ais523> but I wouldn't say it's pseudonatural, it's more a steganographic type of language
14:00:53 <ais523> given that it ignores most of the content of a program and primarily looks only at the adverbs
14:03:15 <de67> out of all these
14:03:26 <de67> kip seems the most promising
14:04:24 <de67> most of the esolangs listed here have to something with natural language
14:04:29 <de67> which is kinda interesting
14:04:52 <ais523> cellpond probably does the best at being presented in an interesting way (given that it has no spec and the interpreter is apparently frequently changed and frequently broken)
14:04:54 <de67> cellpond is also very promising
14:05:32 <ais523> in any case, I am not claiming that these are good languages, I just wanted a record of them because that's what the wiki's for
14:05:46 <ais523> (unless they turn out to be insufficiently esoteric or problematic in other ways)
14:06:10 <de67> i guess all of 'em deserve a place on this wiki

14:21:48 <ais523> you don't need to do that
14:21:53 <ais523> you can use whatlinkshere on the tempalte
14:22:11 <ais523> so there's no need to create a separate page duplicating the informaiton (which could go out of date)
14:23:56 <de67> some pages are empty and only contain this template and some pages that both have the template and the content
14:24:12 <de67> pages that dont have any content should be deleted
14:27:40 <ais523> deleting a page makes the history inaccessible to non-admins, whereas sometimes the history can be useful, that's the main thing that makes me cautious about deleting pages
14:28:01 <ais523> (sometimes in my deletion message I will give enough context to explain what the page was, so that if someone comes across the deleted page while researching an esolang, they will gain all the available information about it)
14:28:07 <de67> ais523: i think that there should be a page for page deletion discussion
14:28:19 <ais523> normally we use the talk page of the page in question
14:28:33 <ais523> that worked fine for years, but recently it has become hard to keep up with recent changes due to so many esolangs being made
14:28:36 <de67> since once someone tags a page for deletion, theres rarely any meaningful followup
14:29:12 <de67> an another related issue is some discussions in [[Esolang talk:Categorization]] stalling
14:29:18 <ais523> we might eventually need a system like Wikipedia's AFD (although hopefully less complicated)
14:29:44 <de67> sometimes discussion stalls even if theres some sort of a consensus
14:29:46 <ais523> (fun fact: it was actually me who programmed one of the main templates behind the AFD system, I didn't come up with the rules, just did the coding)
14:29:50 <de67> but no admin response
14:30:06 <de67> ais523: didnt know that
14:30:15 <de67> but i do know that you sometimes do template coding
14:30:21 <de67> like {{lowercase}} template
14:30:31 <ais523> oddly I don't remember writing that one, but I may have done
14:30:45 <de67> lemme look up page history for [[Template:Lowercase]]

14:32:51 <ais523> well, it was originally forked from Wikipedia in response to Wikipedia deleting coverage about esolangs
14:33:13 <de67> ais523: i remember someone saying something along the lines of that
14:33:22 <de67> dont remember if it was fizzie or int-e
14:33:44 <de67> i was curious about the april 6th mass deletions
14:33:52 <de67> and also early freenode #esoteric logs
14:34:08 <ais523> I don't think I was active on Esolang at the time, but I was active on Wikipedia and saw the events from the Wikipedia side of things
14:34:18 <ais523> (which is probably how I found Esolang in the first place)
14:34:24 <de67> ais523: do you still remember how it looked like?
14:34:42 <de67> the events from wikipedia side

14:35:57 <ais523> (that isn't the events themselves, but rather a list of links to them)
14:36:24 <de67> why am i surprised by you having a wikipedia account??
14:37:53 <de67> why was esolang wiki forked from wikipedia (instead of starting from scratch)?
14:38:09 <de67> cuz wikipedia had more than esolangs (which would be offtopic for esolang wiki)?
14:38:24 <de67> wow, lots of votes for keep all
14:38:38 <de67> on the 2004 vote
14:39:37 <ais523> it wasn't directly forked, due to licensing reasons
14:40:07 <de67> i see, i guess it was cuz esolang wiki decided to go public domain
14:40:09 <ais523> it was more, people looked at the articles that were being deleted on Wikipedia and tried to write their own articles on the same subjects, as long as they were esolang-related
14:40:09 <de67> unlike wikipedia
14:40:16 <de67> which is gnu free doc licens
14:40:33 <ais523> Wikipedia was GFDL at the time, it is CC-by-sa nowadays
14:40:50 <ais523> (a special version of the GFDL was made to make it legal for them to change it, normally you can't change license like that)
14:41:10 <de67> (i meant to say ais523: wow)
14:41:51 <ais523> it changed on June 15 2009
14:44:00 <de67> i (and some others) think that thue has been featured for wayt too long
14:44:09 <de67> it probably should be switched out for something else
14:44:10 <esolangs> [[Mesmerizer]] https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=198835&oldid=195908 * A random guy * (+1038) Did some things. Wont continue for a bit but I got some things done.
14:45:21 <ais523> the problem is that we have few articles of good enough quality to feature
14:45:30 <ais523> wiki editors have generally been going for quantity rather than quality…
14:46:00 <de67> what about befunge?
14:46:33 <de67> or some others?
14:46:38 <ais523> befunge was featured earlier I think
14:46:49 <ais523> most of the good articles have been featured for many years each
14:47:03 <de67> to your surprise, it wasnt
14:47:35 <de67> the longest gap was 5 something years
14:47:55 <ais523> it might be that the article doesn't describe the language well
14:48:09 <ais523> in any case, I wasn't really involved with the featured article process, that was mostly other admins
14:48:22 <ais523> but the admins who were active there left
14:48:26 <de67> what happened to the other admins?
14:48:42 <de67> also what happened to the whole admin promotion process?
14:48:44 <ais523> many people drift away from esolangs over time
14:48:58 <ais523> I'm not sure there ever really was an admin promotion process
14:49:11 <ais523> when I was promoted the wiki was being overrun by spam, and I was promoted to help stop the spambots
14:49:38 <de67> ais523: yeah, the wiki's currently not being bombarded by all sorts of spambots and spiders
14:49:49 <ais523> but didn't really do much in the way of adminning apart from that, until it turned out that there weren't really any admins around and someone needed to do the remaining admin work
14:52:10 <PkmnQ> Seems like Befunge hasn't been previously featured, it's not even currently proposed (there is a paragraph for it, but there's currently no user attached)
14:52:41 <b_jonas> PkmnQ: our Befunge articles are in a sad state, so I don't think that should become a featured page for now
14:52:51 <de67> ais523: can i change my mind about my featured language candidate proposal?
14:53:03 <b_jonas> I wonder if the best solution would be to just remove the featured language frame from the landing page
14:53:04 <ais523> who knows at this point, the whole process is broken
14:53:08 <ais523> b_jonas: I wonder that too
14:53:17 <ais523> I can't remember what was there beforehand but we might be able to find it in the page history

14:53:49 <de67> ais523: in fact, quite a lot of things need to be fixed
14:54:52 <de67> maybe i should be trying to fix what i can instead of perpetually refreshing recent changs page
14:54:59 <de67> (i have my js off)
14:55:23 <b_jonas> nothing, the 2×2 panel layout was added to the main page in https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&diff=prev&oldid=31305 , and in that version the top right panel already says “Featured language”
14:55:28 <ais523> the bot esolangs posts new entries on recent changes
14:55:32 <ais523> so you can use IRC to keep track of it
14:56:29 <de67> ais523: i mostly use my web browser unless theres some activity on irc
14:56:54 <ais523> I used to mostly keep track of changes to the wiki at the same time as logreading the IRC logs
14:57:05 <ais523> but now the channel has become more active, that's become difficult, and I'm not sure what to do instead
14:58:00 <de67> ais523: read [[Special:RecentChanges]]?
14:58:11 <ais523> but I have problems focusing on it sometimes
14:58:36 <de67> ais523: idk, it doesnt seem like a distracting page
14:58:46 <ais523> the problems are with me rather than the page
14:58:53 <ais523> I often struggle to focus on anything
15:01:58 <de67> ais523: btw, is Alex Smith a pseudonym?
15:02:23 <ais523> it is quite generic but generic names are generic because many people have them
15:02:42 <ais523> I think I'm something like the tenth most famous Alex Smith in the world (the most famous is an American footballer)
15:04:11 -!- aadenboy2 has joined.
15:04:25 <aadenboy2> ais523: checking the history, there has always been a featured language in the new layout: https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&diff=prev&oldid=31305
15:04:27 <b_jonas> I have a certain discrete optimization problem for which I'd like approximate solutions. I have a set of grid cells marked in a square grid that has at most 35 columns and at most 35 rows, and I want to cover the marked cells with rectangles. The rectangles can overlap, and have to cover all marked cells but no other cells. But I have a bunch of complications. Each rectangle costs 4 demerits, except
15:04:33 <b_jonas> that if it only has one column then it costs 3 demerits. You're allowed to omit columns from a rectangle so it's not quite connected, but each omitted column costs 1 demerit. And you're allowed to reorder the columns but not the rows. I have multiple instances of this problem, between 3 and 100 instances. Do you happen to know what kind of tool I should use for this? Currently I'm just using single
15:04:39 <b_jonas> column wide triangles, but I'm starting to think that single row might be better so I'll try that later.
15:04:48 <ais523> hmm, so if we remove the featured language, we'd need to come up with a new layout or something new to add there
15:05:51 <aadenboy2> obviously we should install DPL4 and have the featured language rotate on each page refresh /j
15:06:02 <de67> or, we can leave an empty space! /hj
15:06:40 <ais523> b_jonas: given the complications, I haven't seen a problem like that before, but I think you would have a large premium on putting columns with similar patterns near each other
15:06:53 <b_jonas> Oh, and the marked shape is symmetric around the center row.
15:06:55 <de67> hm, maybe i should try creating a draft for a featureless main page
15:07:48 <b_jonas> And the whole thing probably isn't even worth optimize, my simple solutions are probably enough, but it's an on topic enough thing for esoteric so I might as well ask and learn something in case a higher stake version comes up later.
15:07:50 <de67> why did i decide that putting lynx section at the bottom (instead of putting it at the top) of my page was a good idea
15:08:15 <ais523> there is a lot of flexibility in what you can do with columns, but none in what you can do with rows
15:09:02 <ais523> if two adjacent rows have the same columns marked, they may as well be treated as one row for the purpose of the algorithm
15:09:54 <b_jonas> Yes, I have already merged identical columns, that saves a few columns but not many.
15:10:02 <ais523> and if they don't, a rectangle will need to start in each row that is not a subset of the previous row (likewise end in each row that is not a subset of the next row)
15:10:32 <ais523> so the only flexibility is to try to avoid needing to start or end multiple rectangles on the same rwo
15:10:40 <b_jonas> This is for an esoteric programming goal, a contraption made of a few Factorio 1.1 combinators, and the demerits are the number of condition lines in a decider combinator.
15:10:41 <ais523> (and to avoid demerits for gaps)
15:11:00 <b_jonas> it's a contraption made of a few Factorio 2.0 combinators
15:11:25 <b_jonas> that's why the decider can have many conditions (two thousand in at least one instance)
15:12:55 <ais523> I think an algorithm should look for marked cells with unmarked cells above or below them, and work out how to cover those
15:15:10 <b_jonas> well yes, that's what my current algorithm does, it just always places one column wide rectangles that are as tall as possible

15:19:40 <b_jonas> yeah, ideally I should try to expand them to the right if possible and see if that saves anything -- though I'll first try single row rectangles because I think that might be a significant save

15:27:44 <de67> is the vertical layout draft acceptable?
15:29:06 <ais523> I'm not sure, it's hard for me to make decisions at short notice
15:29:43 <de67> but i already decided that its ugly on wide screens
15:29:46 <ais523> perhaps we should put some content from the community portal in the remaining corner
15:30:05 <de67> that works too

15:30:52 <de67> there are 3 esolang related discord servers now
