06:02:49 <Arrogant> Possibly the coolest esolang concept ever
06:03:28 <GregorR> Then why don't you beat logicex-2 :)
06:03:39 <Arrogant> Because I'm stupid :)
06:03:58 <GregorR> Heh
06:05:24 <Arrogant> Of course, Glass' interpreter is probably in C++ isn't it?
06:06:57 <Arrogant> I'm not hardcore enough for that :)
06:07:36 <Arrogant> One of these days I'm going to learn Haskell and implement something in that.
06:07:42 <GregorR> Hah
06:07:45 <GregorR> Yeah, Glass is in C++
06:07:51 <Arrogant> I heard Haskell is good at parsing.
06:08:14 <GregorR> Yeah ... and painful at almost anything else ^^
06:09:12 <Arrogant> Yep.
06:09:20 <Arrogant> Haskell done hurt me brain.
06:10:03 <Arrogant> Pyparsing made writing Synesthesia's interpreter so easy anyone could've done it.

06:29:05 <rabidpoobear> hey arrogant
06:29:14 <Arrogant> Hey rapidpoobear
06:29:16 <Arrogant> http://paragon.pastebin.com/738699
06:29:22 <Arrogant> For a look at the interpreter
06:29:33 <Arrogant> See how childish it is :D
06:31:51 <rabidpoobear> what does the "class classname (something):"   something part do?
06:32:06 <Arrogant> ... I thought you wrote in Python
06:32:12 <rabidpoobear> >_>
06:32:20 <rabidpoobear> i've never seen that before
06:32:23 <GregorR> <rabidpoobear> So did I :(
06:32:23 <rabidpoobear> :?
06:32:32 <rabidpoobear> ha
06:32:41 <Arrogant> Python is an object oriented language, that's for defining classes
06:33:15 <rabidpoobear> i know how to define classes... i meant what is the stuff in parenthesis doing? I always do "class TestClass:" and that's it
06:33:27 <Arrogant> Oh.
06:33:31 <Arrogant> Subclassing.
06:33:43 <rabidpoobear> ah!
06:34:13 <Arrogant> (object) is how you create "new-style" classes
06:34:25 <Arrogant> It's the prefered way to create classes now.
06:34:40 <rabidpoobear> what does that change?
06:35:26 <Arrogant> Lets you use property, staticmethod, and classmethod
06:36:05 <Arrogant> Also, metaclasses.
06:36:07 <Arrogant> Lots of magic.
06:36:17 <Arrogant> A few other things.
06:36:24 <rabidpoobear> guess I should learn about it then
06:37:03 <rabidpoobear> I like magic
06:37:11 <rabidpoobear> hey gregor btw
06:38:16 <Arrogant> Of course you like magic, you wouldn't be in here otherwise.
06:38:27 <GregorR> lol
06:39:42 <rabidpoobear> do you have any example .syn programs?
06:39:51 <Arrogant> {fibo:(n(n*(f|=)-(f+|=)-(f+|=)++-|{fibo}-|{fibo}*>*[-<+>]<|))}
06:39:54 <Arrogant> That's about it.
06:39:59 <Arrogant> I'm trying to work out some other stuff.
06:40:21 <GregorR> Now you just need Ackethesia, for .ack files X-P
06:41:45 <rabidpoobear> I have to wake up in 6 hrs so I'm going to sleep in a little bit once I test your interpreter
06:43:26 <Arrogant> K.
06:43:28 <rabidpoobear> so your interpreter can be run with either "interpretername foo.syn" or "interpretername - programtext"?
06:43:34 <Arrogant> Right.
06:43:38 <rabidpoobear> neat-o
06:43:41 <Arrogant> That was really just for testing it
06:43:50 <Arrogant> I'll probably think up something more ... usual for later.
06:45:24 <Arrogant> I didn't want to mess with the instream
06:45:26 * rabidpoobear waits for sourceforge page to load so he can download PyParsing
06:46:22 <rabidpoobear> arrogant are you a professional programmer?
06:46:30 <Arrogant> I'm a professional amateur
06:46:39 <Arrogant> I pay myself
06:46:41 <Arrogant> With video games.
06:47:12 <Arrogant> Like see, in front of me iis Metroid Zero Mission.
06:47:14 <Arrogant> Great game.
06:47:37 <Arrogant> Why do you ask?
06:48:24 <Arrogant> GregorR, I must admit Glass is pretty genius.
06:48:44 <rabidpoobear> just wonderin'
06:48:52 <rabidpoobear> Gregor works for Intel
06:49:20 <GregorR> Hahahah
06:49:27 <GregorR> Glass is fun :)
06:49:31 <rabidpoobear> hmm pyparsing install didn't work
06:49:41 <Arrogant> what version of Python do you have?
06:49:58 <rabidpoobear> 2.4.2
06:50:01 <Arrogant> Ojh.
06:50:02 <Arrogant> Oh*.
06:50:08 <GregorR> rabidpoobear: Out of curiousity, what did this observation, "Gregor works for Intel," have to do with anything?
06:50:43 <rabidpoobear> uh, cause we were talkin' about workin'!
06:50:50 <GregorR> Um, OK XD
06:50:53 <rabidpoobear> :)
06:51:04 <Arrogant> He was wondering if I were a professional programmer
06:51:08 <GregorR> Ah
06:51:15 <rabidpoobear> arrogant do i need an older version of python?
06:51:21 <Arrogant> No
06:51:21 <rabidpoobear> erm
06:51:26 <Arrogant> :/
06:51:30 <rabidpoobear> yeah, the installer just didn't work, i remember now.
06:51:32 <Arrogant> I was hoping you were outdated or something
06:51:34 <rabidpoobear> I'm getting the source
06:51:46 <GregorR> Incidentally, Intel's new logo and slogan are awful ^^
06:52:23 <rabidpoobear> the blue intel with the swoosh around it?
06:52:32 <GregorR> Yeah
06:52:44 <GregorR> With the font that's sans-everything.
06:52:55 <GregorR> Sans-detail, sans-readability, sans-aesthetics.
06:53:17 * Arrogant applaused
06:53:18 <rabidpoobear> what's the slogan theN?
06:53:25 <GregorR> "Leap Ahead"
06:53:29 <GregorR> So stupidly generic.
06:54:09 <Arrogant> They should make more processors named after vegetables.
06:54:15 <Arrogant> Also
06:54:17 <Arrogant> They should make it
06:54:21 <Arrogant> "It's all inside"
06:54:26 <Arrogant> And then JCPenney can sue them.
06:54:41 <GregorR> The Intel Asparagus
06:54:42 <rabidpoobear> hah
06:54:47 <GregorR> And the Asparagus-D
06:54:51 <GregorR> And the Asparagus-M
06:55:58 <rabidpoobear> urm, arrogant, I have to admit I've never installed a python package from source... I just unzip it into the /python24/lib/site-packages/pyparsing-1.4.2 folder?
06:56:22 <rabidpoobear> should I run setup.py?
06:56:56 <Arrogant> unzip it and run "setup.py install"
06:57:01 <Arrogant> It'll put itself in the right spot
06:57:57 <rabidpoobear> yay
06:58:42 <Arrogant> I should learn how to write a recursive decent parser
06:59:14 <Arrogant> At the moment the only language I can write one in is Python. And that's because of pyparsing.
06:59:31 <rabidpoobear> what is  {fibo:(n(n*(f|=)-(f+|=)-(f+|=)++-|{fibo}-|{fibo}*>*[-<+>]<|))} supposed to do?
06:59:42 <Arrogant> It's a fibonacci function
06:59:51 <Arrogant> You'll have to put a number on the stack and call it first
07:00:02 <Arrogant> Hmm
07:00:14 <Arrogant> try {fibo:(n(n*(f|=)-(f+|=)-(f+|=)++-|{fibo}-|{fibo}*>*[-<+>]<|))}++++++++++|{fibo}*!
07:00:24 <Arrogant> That'll stick 10 on the stack, call it, pop, and output.
07:00:40 <rabidpoobear> 55?
07:01:02 <Arrogant> Yep.
07:01:07 <rabidpoobear> neat
07:01:11 <Arrogant> The 10th number in the fibonacci sequence is 55.
07:01:32 <Arrogant> 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55
07:02:03 <rabidpoobear> your lanugage's syntax confuses me
07:02:25 <Arrogant> Would we have it any other way?
07:02:28 <GregorR> Without having read anything about it, I must suspect it's just ripped off from Glass ;)
07:03:02 <Arrogant> I love you too ;)
07:03:07 <Arrogant> http://paragon.pastebin.com/736571 Read the spec.
07:04:14 <GregorR> Oh, OK, I gets it, it's sort of like Brainfuck with scopes/functions/et cetera?
07:04:35 <Arrogant> Yeah.
07:04:39 <Arrogant> And a stack.
07:04:47 <GregorR> Erm, right, a global stack.
07:05:21 * Arrogant nods.
07:05:40 <Arrogant> And they're not really functions
07:05:44 <Arrogant> No return values
07:06:11 <GregorR> Well, there's a global stack.
07:06:18 <GregorR> Global stack = handy return values :P
07:09:03 <Arrogant> Yeah.
07:09:09 <Arrogant> Subroutines, though ;)
07:09:37 <Arrogant> Technically, nothing is passed in, nothing is passed out.
07:09:42 <Arrogant> But yeah, might as well be.
07:10:22 <GregorR> Well, the same can be said of Glass :-P
07:11:40 <Arrogant> True
07:14:24 <Arrogant> I think for a first language it's a fairly good job
07:14:56 <Arrogant> It also doesn't fail to confuse the fuck out of people
07:15:13 <Arrogant> So I think it succeeds one of the main goals of esoterica
07:15:31 <GregorR> Referring to Synesthesia, yes?
07:15:37 <GregorR> Yeah, it's pretty nice - I think it's a good implementation of Brainfuck + functions.
07:15:53 <GregorR> Now get Brainfuck + classes and I'll actually have some competition in the OOP-esoteric field.
07:16:38 <Arrogant> I'm working on a concept that wouldn't quite be classes but it would give you the neccesary functionality
07:17:05 <Arrogant> As in, static scopes with addresses that can be stored as pointers.
07:17:18 <Arrogant> Something similar to Synesthesia in a few ways
07:17:23 <Arrogant> But drastically different in others

17:01:22 <SimonRC> no
17:01:28 <SimonRC> what format is that?
17:01:41 * SimonRC was using the format used by Life32, etc
17:01:43 <ihope_> It's the one used my Mirek's Cellebration.
17:01:55 <ihope_> s/my/by/
17:02:29 <ihope_> It's a Von Neumann, or however that's spelled.
17:03:01 <ihope_> Survival's on 2 or 3 neighbors, and birth is on 2, 3, or 4.
17:03:31 <ihope_> Also, it's a generations thing, so when an "alive" cell dies, it turns into "dead", then "long dead", before disappearing.
17:03:37 -!- tgwizard has joined.
17:03:42 <ihope_> Then it behaves as a normal empty cell.
17:03:55 <SimonRC> that'd be V:23/234

17:04:37 <SimonRC> ah, that ruel doesn't specify the long death thing, though
17:04:45 * SimonRC nicks the image for his wallpaper  :-)
17:05:00 <ihope_> V:23/234/4, or something like that.
17:05:10 <ihope_> Life32 doesn't seem to support generations rules.
17:05:11 <SimonRC> probably not
17:05:17 <SimonRC> binary only
17:06:00 <ihope_> And that's why I prefer MCell.

17:30:31 <GregorR-W> That's ridiculous XD
17:30:37 <SimonRC> It's a fake, BTW
17:30:42 <GregorR-W> I figured.
17:31:28 <SimonRC> made of bits of other movies spiced together, with maybe a tiny bit of new footage, a little bad dubbing, and small amount of CG.
17:31:54 <GregorR-W> Naturally.
17:32:01 <SimonRC> very cleverly done
17:33:05 <SimonRC> I dunno where they got the block-of-ice shots from.
17:34:05 <SimonRC> ah, wait, I think that's from a movie where the thing in the block is actually an alien
17:50:09 <SimonRC> *klick*
17:50:39 <SimonRC> Y'know how hand-coded assembley programs tend to be faster even than C...
17:51:43 <SimonRC> Well, I suspect that hand-coded brainfuck must be far better than anything a compiler can produce, simply because you write programs in a different way in BF.
17:52:00 <SimonRC> You don't think in terms of if-else, or variables.
17:52:06 <GregorR-W> I guarantee you with 100% certainty that that's true.
17:52:13 <SimonRC> You think in terms of the tape, and []
17:52:16 <SimonRC> hmm
17:52:37 <ihope_> But there's still some overhead.
17:52:48 <ihope_> Or whatever that's called.
17:53:11 <SimonRC> Compilers are better at compiling than humans could be, but humans are better than that if hey program directly in the target language.
17:53:30 <ihope_> But BF isn't the target language.
17:53:57 <ihope_> And it disallows access to plenty of CPU features.
17:58:36 <jix> gcc inline assembly is bad...
17:59:22 <jix> it screws up gcc's register allocation...
17:59:39 <jix> well maybe that doesn't matter on x86 where you don't have a lot of registers
18:00:17 <jix> but it does matter on ARM or PPC... ldr r4, =bla ; mov r0,r4 and not using r4 anymore hurts...
18:05:27 <ihope_> Oh, SimonRC: want a "rectangles" thing that wraps around properly?
18:06:09 <SimonRC> ?
18:06:29 <SimonRC> what do you mean?
18:06:31 <ihope_> One that you could use as a tiled wallpaper.
18:06:37 <ihope_> Without it looking weird.
18:06:50 <SimonRC> I can;t actually set wallpaper
18:07:04 <ihope_> Oh.
18:07:15 <SimonRC> At Uni it's disallowed, and at home I run ratpoison.
18:16:28 <ihope_> Woot, rundll stopped working and now I can't terminate it.
18:16:44 <SimonRC> :-S
18:16:59 * ihope_ wishes the "End Process" button on the Windows Task Manager were more effective.
18:17:00 <SimonRC> you need that kit that gives you more-powerful system commands
18:17:20 <ihope_> What I need is Linux! :-)
18:18:15 <ihope_> Okay. rundll didn't crash AGAIN, did it?
18:18:33 <kipple> I think there is a registry setting you can use to reduce the timeout when ending prog
18:18:37 <kipple> processess
18:24:45 <jix> you need osx...
18:29:41 <GregorR-W> You need DOS

18:33:03 <ihope_> Hmm...
18:33:15 <ihope_> What's the shortest BF program that is itself Turing-complete?
18:33:40 <GregorR-W> Um, that question makes no sense.

19:27:26 <GregorR-W> ihope_: Um, no ...
19:27:48 <SimonRC> welllllll...
19:27:50 <ihope_> But programs can compute.
19:28:04 <SimonRC> you can abuse programs to get them to do computation.
19:28:05 <ihope_> Shouldn't something that can compute have a computational class?
19:28:14 -!- sp3tt has joined.
19:28:51 <SimonRC> The normal view is that a PC is like a computational class, and a program is a Automaton of that computational class.
19:28:52 <GregorR-W> Well, OK, yes, if it does computation then it has a computation class.
19:29:07 <GregorR-W> But then it's an interpreter, and what really has the computation class is the language you interpret.
19:29:41 <SimonRC> however, a language (interpreter) could be like a computational class, and the programs it interpret would be automata
19:29:50 <SimonRC> GregorR-W: yes

19:46:03 <GregorR-W> No computing class has been found which is higher than TC
19:46:10 <GregorR-W> So, ATM, that's the highest computing class :P
19:46:34 <ihope> They've been found, but never implemented.
19:46:56 <ihope> Brainhype programs can be in a class higher than TC.
19:47:31 <ihope> And a Brainhype interpreter is, oddly enough, in a higher computational class than any Brainhype program can be.

20:04:22 <GregorR-W> Bitchanger
20:04:35 <GregorR-W> Using EgoBch
20:04:44 <GregorR-W> Named that so that it would sound like "EGO, BITCH!"
20:05:28 <ihope> I interpreted that as "BitchAnger"... aiee.
20:06:06 <GregorR-W> It was carefully named :P
20:09:57 <SimonRC> heh
20:10:00 <ihope> Say, why don't you add a Minimum interpreter to EgoBot?
20:11:02 <GregorR-W> Isn't it not only worthless but unimplemented?
20:11:37 <ihope> main = getLine >> putStrLn "Syntax error"
20:11:41 <ihope> There's your implementation.
20:12:00 <jix> puts"Syntax error"
20:12:02 <jix> hah ruby is shorter!
20:12:31 <ihope> main=interact(const"error")
20:12:37 <ihope> Is Ruby shorter than that?
20:12:58 <ihope> Hey, might as well s/error/e/
20:13:17 <jix> isn't puts"Syntax error" shorter?
20:13:40 <ihope> Does that ask for a line of stuff, too?
20:13:48 <jix> oh no...
20:13:55 <jix> gets;puts"Syntax error"
20:14:06 <ihope> Yep, Ruby wins.
20:18:59 <ihope> Anyway, there's three implementations. Which one do you want?
20:25:14 <jix> gets;puts:Error
20:29:16 <ihope> Oh, a 12-character implementation: main=error""
20:29:47 <ihope> That just plain error-ifies, though.
20:30:31 <jix> raise
20:30:48 <jix> that generates RuntimeError: <position of error>
20:31:27 <ihope> Okay, even "main=f" is longer than that.

22:26:41 <ihope> No panic bars?
22:27:12 <SimonRC> It's not that desparate a situation yet.
22:27:44 <ihope> Um...
22:28:04 <ihope> Doesn't everybody use panic bars even when it's entirely unnecessary?
22:28:10 <SimonRC> erm, no
22:28:56 <ihope> Erm, yes?
22:29:39 <SimonRC> I suspect I can arrange a calmer method to get out
22:29:59 <SimonRC> In fact, I am in a conversation which should lead to a conversations that gets me out.
22:30:05 <SimonRC> do not worry about it.
22:30:25 * ihope thinks he and SimonRC have different ideas of what a panic bar is
22:31:30 <SimonRC> probably
22:32:42 <ihope> A panic bar is that bar on the inside of public doors that people always push when exiting.
22:34:46 <GregorR-W> WTF?
22:34:50 <GregorR-W> Since when is that called a panic bar.
22:34:52 <GregorR-W> ?
22:36:12 <ihope> What *is* it called, then?
22:36:24 <GregorR-W> A bar.
22:36:26 <GregorR-W> Just a bar.
22:36:52 <ihope> * SimonRC is currently locked in a building.
