01:52:22 <ehird> You probably did something wrong.
01:52:26 <Sgeo> Possibly
01:52:32 <Sgeo> But I can't figure out what
01:52:33 <ehird> Besides, most such picky old things are VC6 only.
01:52:36 <ehird> I would guess.

18:19:49 <oerjan> huh no one has spoken for 10 hours
18:20:11 <oklopol> you'd think
18:20:24 <oklopol> but actually a few people have spoken on other channels
18:20:33 <oerjan> yes but thinking doesn't count
18:20:42 <oklopol> good one
18:20:45 <oerjan> context, oklopol, context
18:21:00 <fax> I was going for 12 hours :(
18:21:04 <oklopol> context?
18:21:10 <oerjan> fax: MWAHAHA
18:21:17 <oerjan> oklopol: this channel is the context
18:21:31 <oklopol> but... how could i have known
18:21:39 <oerjan> oklopol: telepathy
18:21:51 <oerjan> that's what we use when not speaking for hours
18:22:12 <oklopol> anyway i'm beginning to see this fever as a good thing
18:22:40 <oklopol> it makes math much more interesting, because everything even slightly nontrivial requires like a two hour thinking session
18:22:52 <oerjan> ah
18:23:12 <fax> how does that not just mae you study math you already know??
18:24:14 <oerjan> ah but he _thinks_ he doesn't know it
18:24:22 <oerjan> so it's still exciting
18:24:31 <fax> swine fever!
18:24:34 <oklopol> huh?
18:24:52 <oklopol> what did you mean by that "mae" thing
18:25:01 <oerjan> bacon burn
18:25:06 <oklopol> well you meant "mean", but i mean by the the sentence
18:25:07 <oerjan> oklopol: mae west, obviously
18:25:07 <oklopol> *the
18:25:52 * oerjan thought "make", actually, but "mean" makes more sense, although a more unlikely typo
18:25:58 <oklopol> exercises aren't always easy even without a fever, i don't see how that'd mean i already know all the math
18:26:08 <oklopol> hmm
18:26:18 <oklopol> yeah maybe make, let's see if i understand it then
18:26:52 <oklopol> with "make"... you might mean if everything looks hard, i might accidentally start solving something i've already solved?
18:26:55 <oklopol> my memory is fine
18:27:06 <oklopol> also i just solve what they give me
18:27:37 <oklopol> and yes i think i have swine fever
18:27:39 <fax> I wish I was as motivated as you
18:28:25 <oklopol> because i never get sick, i need a reason for being sick now.
18:29:10 <oklopol> also i have all the symptoms... but i'm not sure any of them actually separate it from the usual codenameless sicknesses
18:30:13 <oklopol> a good source of motivation is the fear of not being the best
18:30:38 <oklopol> also a great source of depression, i suppose
18:30:49 <oklopol> oh god my head hurts
18:30:55 <oklopol> i actually took medicine for it yesterday
18:31:15 <oklopol> (i never do that)
18:31:53 <oklopol> drugs should only be used for their side-effects
18:32:02 <fax> If you know you aren't and will never be best how do you get motivated anyway?
18:32:17 <fax> not /you/, I mean "one"
18:33:33 <oerjan> no anmaster :(
18:33:38 <oerjan> oh wait
18:33:44 <oklopol> to find something you're the best at, you just need to be at the pareto frontier.
18:33:51 <oklopol> anmaster?
18:33:55 <fax> :(
18:34:20 <oerjan> {}_: D&D (especially the last annotation line :D)
18:34:49 <oklopol> just take something you are the best at, and think of everything else as getting better at that artificial thing
18:35:03 <oklopol> i have a few of those i don't share with people
18:35:06 <oerjan> oklopol: he's feeling symbolic, clearly
18:35:37 <oklopol> can you understand my sentences? communication is hard
18:35:51 <oklopol> i ordered pizza a few hours ago
18:35:56 <oerjan> oklopol: it perfectly is to understand well may
18:35:59 <oklopol> and the guy asked what the pin code for the house is
18:36:08 <oklopol> and i told him the pin code for my credit card
18:36:12 <oklopol> err not credit
18:36:15 <oklopol> that other card.
18:36:21 <oklopol> for money anyway
18:36:22 <oerjan> debet?
18:36:24 <oklopol> visa electron
18:36:55 <oklopol> also i ordered the wrong pizza, said "mir", which is the name of the place, instead of the pizza i actually wanted to order
18:37:22 <oklopol> (not my only mix-ups today, just during that phone call)
18:38:40 <oerjan> mir? russian pizza world?
18:38:57 <oklopol> no not russian
18:39:47 <oerjan> mir has to be russian. it's probably secretly owned by russian mafia. thus further irony as mir also means "peace"
18:39:49 <oklopol> the owner is a stereotypical kebabian dude
18:40:09 <oklopol> does it now
18:40:37 <oerjan> ok maybe it means something in turkish too. let me google...
18:40:58 <oklopol> it means "for me" in german
18:41:07 <oklopol> well "me" in dative anyway
18:41:24 <oerjan> well true
18:41:28 <oklopol> probably that.
18:41:31 <oklopol> GIMME PIZZA
18:41:43 <oklopol> geben sie mir EINEN GROSSEN PIZZA
18:42:20 <oerjan> ah well kebab was invented by turkish germans, so...
18:42:46 <oklopol> :D
18:43:21 <oklopol> huh no one has spoken for 10 seconds
18:44:42 <{}_> oerjan, and iwc
18:44:51 <{}_> didn't notice you join
18:45:05 <{}_> read it hours ago
18:45:10 <{}_> didn't see you in here then

18:50:35 <oerjan> i don't know that you can be invisible in a channel...
18:51:08 <oerjan> i'm always +i, of course
18:53:39 <{}_> <oerjan> i don't know that you can be invisible in a channel... <-- you can?
18:54:00 <FireFly> I assume {}_ is AnMaster, though I wonder why the nick?
18:54:20 <FireFly> Yup, apparently it was AnMaster
18:54:21 <oerjan> {}_: reading comprehension fail
18:54:52 <oerjan> hint, there is no missing comma
18:55:11 <{}_> read it as "didn't"
18:55:14 <{}_> that was the issue
18:55:16 <{}_> FireFly, why not
18:55:37 <FireFly> Well, dunno, it looks odd, that's why
18:55:40 <FireFly> Or rather, why not
18:55:53 <FireFly> Have you registered that nick while you're at it?
18:56:01 <oerjan> FireFly: look at the bright side, now he looks more swattable than you -----###
18:56:14 <FireFly> I guess that'll do
18:56:26 <FireFly> ###----, swatter channel?
18:56:49 <oerjan> he's identified so it must be registered. or?
18:57:16 <FireFly> I think he can sign in for AnMaster without grouping/registering the {}_ nickname
18:57:21 <FireFly> Though I'm not sure, you may be right
18:57:49 <oerjan> hm but then how do we see whether he is registered with that nick...
18:58:00 <FireFly> I guess we can ask NickServ

18:58:42 <FireFly> Seems like he grouped the nick
18:59:08 <{}_> FireFly, yes why?
18:59:14 <oerjan> when i change nick, it says i'm signed on, but not that i'm identified
18:59:15 <FireFly> Dunno, just wondering
18:59:51 <oerjan> (/whois that is)
18:59:52 <{}_> okay can someone say "AnMaster"
18:59:55 <FireFly> Hmm, I guess you're right, oerjan
18:59:58 <{}_> so I can see if the highlight works
19:00:02 <FireFly> AnMaster!!1
19:00:05 <oerjan> AnMaster: no way!
19:00:06 <{}_> gah no
19:00:13 <{}_> try again?
19:00:18 <FireFly> AnMaster aeou
19:00:22 <oerjan> AnMaster: not a chance

20:37:58 -!- |aha| has changed nick to oerjan.
20:39:50 <fizzie> {}_: It was a reference to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_%28musician%29 -- see the "also known as" entry in the infobox, and the first paragraph of the actual article.
20:40:38 <{}_> fizzie, but isn't that one a monty python reference?
20:40:45 -!- FireFly has joined.
20:40:46 <{}_> unless I'm completely mistaken
20:41:20 <{}_> "The knights formerly known as The Knights of Ni" or something like that (modulo exact phrase)
20:43:51 <fizzie> {}_: No. According to Wikipedia, they were "The Knights Who 'Til Recently Said Ni", which is a bit different; but in the 2004 musical Spamalot, they've been renamed to "The artists formerly known as the Knights who say Ni" as a reference to Prince.
20:44:24 -!- jix has quit ("Lost terminal").
20:44:29 <fizzie> Of course you could speculate that the "formerly known" thing was a reference to the "'til recently" bit of Holy Grail, but that's not completely obvious, at least.
20:45:02 <{}_> fizzie, oh
20:53:38 -!- {}_ has changed nick to {0}.
20:53:38 -!- {0} has quit (Nick collision from syn.).
20:53:49 -!- AnMaster has joined.
20:55:38 <MizardX> Heh. They're still having trouble with that... "Nick collision from syn."
20:56:15 <FireFly> Interesting topic in here
20:56:27 <FireFly> Well, uh, the one being discussed, not the one of the channel
20:56:48 <AnMaster> not sure about that. And {0}_ was reported erroneous
20:57:56 -!- AnMaster has changed nick to {}_.
21:00:28 <{}_> err
21:00:30 <{}_> yeah
21:03:24 <{}_> ais523, btw isn't my nick valid C with the right #define?
21:03:26 <{}_> well not alone
21:03:28 <{}_> probably
21:04:12 <{}_> like: #define _ /*NOOP*/\nwhile 0 {}_
21:04:26 <{}_> (inside some function)
21:07:34 -!- BeholdMyGlory has quit (Remote closed the connection).
21:09:25 <Deewiant> int _; while (--_) {}_ ++;
21:09:37 <fax> nice!!
21:10:09 -!- Gracenotes has joined.
21:12:28 <{}_> Deewiant, indeed
21:12:41 <{}_> Deewiant, no define even
21:13:08 <Deewiant> Astute.
21:15:16 <{}_> Deewiant, don't be sarcastic. I was being impressed of that idea.
21:15:34 * {}_ tries to find the English word for "beröm"
21:15:36 * {}_ looks at FireFly
21:15:45 <FireFly> Hm
21:16:00 <FireFly> praise?
21:16:37 <Deewiant> Acclaim!
21:17:33 <{}_> praise would be better in this case yeah
21:22:08 <{}_> ais523, what is my nick with intercal char names now again?
21:22:22 <ais523> I'm not sure, { and } aren't used in INTERCAL
21:22:25 <ais523> but _ is a worm
21:22:35 <{}_> ah
21:22:41 <{}_> ais523, what about [] ?
21:22:44 <ais523> (are { and } even /in/ EBCDIC)
21:22:49 <ais523> and [ is a u-turn, I think
21:22:52 <ais523> with ] being a u-turn-back
21:27:13 <Deewiant> In Funge-98 your nick's the rather unwieldy "begin block end block east-west if"
21:28:41 <ais523> []_ would be three conditionals in a row
21:28:45 <{}_> Deewiant, yeah.
21:28:52 <{}_> ais523, no?
21:28:54 <ais523> hmm... or rather, not, because there's be no way to flow through all three in a row
21:29:05 <{}_> ais523, ] and [ are turn in befunge
21:29:06 <ais523> oh, ofc, [ and ] just turn unconditonally
21:29:25 <ais523> I was muddled with Sansism's G
21:29:59 <Deewiant> "turn left turn right east-west if"
21:30:17 <{}_> hm
21:30:49 * {}_ ponders the nick \hphantom{} but decides against it
21:30:59 <{}_> (anyone else should feel free to register it)
21:31:18 <{}_> (you could do other short latex code snippets as well)
21:49:45 -!- jix has joined.
21:53:43 <fizzie> Deewiant: Hello, fingerprint-defined D push 14 push 14 compare input file push 10 clear stack split.
21:54:43 <Deewiant> Good day to you too, push 15 input file no operation no operation input file push 14!
21:55:22 <{}_> "The GeForce 200 Series is the tenth generation of NVIDIA's GeForce graphics processing units. The series also represents the continuation of the company's unified shader architecture introduced with the GeForce 8 Series and the GeForce 9 Series."
21:55:24 <{}_> huh
21:55:37 <{}_> 200?
21:55:45 <{}_> isn't that lower than 6000 even
21:55:50 * {}_ fails to see the logic
21:55:57 <fizzie> This reminds me a bit of the A.I. name-pronouncing convetion of Schlock Mercenary; explained in the note of http://www.schlockmercenary.com/d/20060419.html
21:56:46 <fizzie> The numbers are best treated as meaningless symbols instead of, you know, numbers.
21:57:02 <fizzie> Certainly "200" is a lot more than "8" or "9" (since they're called "series 8" and "series 9").
21:58:45 <fizzie> Though I guess you could argue the new series should be called the "GeForce 0.2 series" then.
21:58:48 -!- oerjan has quit ("leaving").
21:59:22 <{}_> fizzie, you could. But it would be pointless
21:59:28 <{}_> since there is no reason to it
21:59:42 <{}_> fizzie, no series 100?

22:37:26 <fizzie> {}_: IIRC, there is a "series 100", but it was some sort of OEM-only "pretty much geforce 9 with a new name" budget thing.
22:38:21 <fizzie> For example http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_gt_120_us.html "OEM Product", "Not available for individual purchase".
22:48:31 <fizzie> Oh noes, there is an IMPERFECTION in the holy Wikipedia. (Someone has moved -- on Nov 1 -- the GeForce 100 series table from "GeForce 200 Series" into "GeForce 9 Series", without fixing the "GeForce 100 Series" => "GeForce 200 Series#OEM GeForce 100" redirect. I'd fix it myself, but there's a messy "no, they belong to this article" paragraph in the 200-series talk page, and I don't know how these Wiki-things go.)
22:56:30 <oklopol> 200 is an annoing number
22:56:55 <fizzie> oklopol: An anointed number.
22:58:57 <oklopol> i just saw that in the other direction in buffy the vampire slayer
22:59:05 <oklopol> there was this anointed one
22:59:13 <oklopol> and spike called him the annoying one and killed him
22:59:26 <oklopol> (spike is pretty tough)
23:00:03 <fizzie> 1. anoint -- (choose by or as if by divine intervention; "She was anointed the head of the Christian fundamentalist group")
23:00:12 <fizzie> Funky "as if by" variant there.

23:53:10 <Sgeo> I meant the language
23:54:31 <SimonRC> ah
23:56:27 <fax> I don't like Go
23:58:47 <Sgeo> Too many ways to initialize a variable? (Just reading through the tutorial now)
