However, after some time doing it professionally, it loses its fun-ness. 02:07:56 The saving graces of a programming career are that (a) it pays pretty well, and (b) you generally don't have to clean toilets. But for those who want something more fulfilling from their forty-or-more hours a week for forty-or-more years in the working world, programming can be lacking.]] 02:09:03 * Sgeo doesn't remember the last time he programmed for recreation :/ 02:11:49 elliott: every job has some bad points 02:12:02 -!- Slereah has joined. 02:12:25 If what you like to do is X, then X is a bad career choice except in some rare circumstances. 02:12:40 elliott_, so I should become a doctor? 02:12:43 It just so happens that a regular, 9-to-5 barely-even-code monkey job is not one of these circumstances. 02:13:04 Sgeo: Uhh... sure. I gather it pays well. But, also, don't do something you don't *like* doing, obviously... 02:13:28 Pick two things; one of those things you enjoy doing a lot, so don't make it your career. The other you like doing, but wouldn't necessarily do in your own time. Tada, career. 02:13:32 At least this is how I view things. 02:13:42 so don't do something you don't like doing but don't do something you like doing 02:14:00 then I should be a coder :D 02:14:05 I like the thought of saving lives, a LOT, and having the knowledge necessary to help family members if needed. I'm scared though of making mistakes, and witnessing death 02:14:12 madbrain: Don't do The Thing you like doing; the one thing you really like to do. 02:14:22 madbrain: But do something you like to do -- just not something you would, if not being paid for it, do. 02:14:30 i.e. Enjoy your job, but don't... job your enjoy. 02:14:37 mhm 02:14:46 hence coder 02:14:53 Sgeo: It doesn't help that "doctor" is rather vague. 02:14:58 madbrain: So what's The Thing you like to do? 02:15:03 it's actually not my main hobby 02:15:05 If not programming. 02:15:08 more like composing music 02:15:18 madbrain: Well, then you're set. 02:15:40 madbrain: Us "The Thing is programming" people have troubles because programming tends to be one of the most menial jobs of its kind... 02:16:11 But no, who do I kid?

Making code that just shoves stuff in and out of a database does not. 02:16:57 madbrain: I know that's what you meant. :) 02:17:21 right 02:17:40 madbrain: Unfortunately 99% of programming is grabbing stuff from a database, processing it lightly, and presenting this, or grabbing stuff from a data, presenting it, and then putting it back in. 02:18:06 madbrain: It is really an accident of history that it requires a Programmer, capital P, to do this, when really a DBA or whatever should be able to set up a task so simple.

Hoover is now usable! 15:09:45 Phantom_Hoover: woot 15:09:47 03:40:34 ineros: please don't update any time soon 15:10:01 Vorpal: I also don't want him to update because torches are going to become lightstones which will not be as pretty on the stairs. 15:10:06 Vorpal: btw, finished the other staircase 15:10:47 04:28:42 this game is so fucking awesome 15:10:49 yay trees are growing 15:10:50 But it's 3D! 15:12:24 yeah, crazy 15:22:53 05:38:59 it would be nice to have like a bot mode where you could easily program bots to do stuff for you (although that'd require resources ofc), it would be the ultimate strategy game 15:22:53 05:39:39 something i've always wanted to make, i think this would be the perfect world for that kind of thing 15:22:54 05:41:52 there would be a huge amount of scripts you could use to make all kinds of search & sensing nice 15:22:54 05:42:04 (maybe you could get them from animal brains) 15:22:55 05:42:27 (blackboxes with algos inside... or maybe not) 15:22:57 05:43:29 anyway you could make proper defenses for your home and stuff, and you could have wars etc, might be fun 15:23:00 05:43:38 i'm not saying it's not already fun 15:23:02 oklopol: play Dwarf Fortress. 15:24:04 it's like that? 15:25:28 oklopol: sorta, i haven't played, but 15:25:45 oklopol: i gather that the main difference is that instead of being smart and helpful, the dwarves are all suicidal morons 15:25:54 and, also, your responsibility 15:29:41 oklopol: it's also meant to be one of the most difficult/deep games :) 15:31:23 -!- FireFly has joined. 15:37:09 -!- BeholdMyGlory has joined. 15:38:45 what do you mean suicidal morons, you can't program them? 15:39:19 or you can program them but they have their own moving algos etc, which suck? 15:47:55 -!- Slereah has quit (Ping timeout: 272 seconds). 15:52:34 -!- Slereah has joined. 15:58:19 -!- kar8nga has joined. 16:07:07 what do you mean suicidal morons, you can't program them? 16:07:17 you can't, as far as i know... but, at least, it's closer to what you were talking about than Minecraft :) 16:07:31 it's also a 3D world but with a 2D interface, so yeah 16:09:12 -!- kar8nga has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 16:10:10 -!- myndzi\ has changed nick to myndzi. 16:11:55 -!- kar8nga has joined. 16:19:07 okay the lag seems to be getting worse, i just used almost a whole day to make a 4x5 glass wall 16:29:03 oklopol: what settings have you g ot it on 16:29:04 *got 16:30:39 -!- sshc has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 16:41:26 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 16:45:42 -!- Sgeo has joined. 16:53:48 the minimal settings, as i've told you 16:54:41 oklopol: close every other prorgam :P 16:54:44 *program 16:56:39 i refuse to 16:59:03 Re "don't update", at least for the halloween update the client -- which auto-updates, of course -- refused to connect to old servers. 16:59:05 So... 16:59:27 -!- poiuy_qwert has joined. 17:00:08 -!- MigoMipo has joined. 17:00:53 * Sgeo throws hate at Windows 7 17:01:11 fizzie: If I were you, I would "cp -R .minecraft .minecraft_good" at your nearest convenience, since we don't want the server to be updated. 17:01:41 What's going on with updating? 17:02:26 Speak for yourself; I probably would want it to update, even if it brings server-side health. 17:04:58 fizzie: It also fixes the respawning thing. Also, torches will become impermanent soon, and lanterns will be very difficult to get. 17:05:17 Anyway if the server doesn't update there's little choice. :P 17:05:43 ineiros: What's your onion on all this? 17:05:52 no monsters & no health in the serverer game? 17:05:58 oklopol: monsters optionally, but no health 17:06:08 fizzie: He's said he was pretty lazy to upgrade, but that was before you revealed that nugget of knowledge. 17:06:16 Monsters are unkillable, so they're pretty silly. 17:06:16 oklopol: also tools recharge if you drop them and pick back up 17:06:19 -!- ais523 has joined. 17:07:40 Blocking the client from auto-updating sounds tedious, though of course doable. As does keeping two versions (one for single-player bugfixes and so, one for multiplayer). 17:08:01 fizzie: Just enter an invalid password. Apparently the server refuses to let you connect in that case, but Eh We'll Figure Out Something. 17:08:08 fizzie: (It may be easiest to simply make the server spoof a version, but.) 17:13:37 Anyway, I'd probably just out of principle prefer getting the obvious-bug "features" (like no falling damage, no tool-wear-out thing) to get fixed, no matter how useful they happen to be for buildnung. But whatevers. 17:13:57 are you trying to get inside the mind of Notch? 17:14:13 No, he's posted in his blag that he's doing server-side health. 17:14:20 But those folks want to keep them bugs. 17:14:33 If the torch issue will be too annyoing, I'll just make sure there are enough pumpkins for everyone. 17:14:51 ineiros: Better to put a shitload of torches somewhere. 17:14:55 They'll turn into lanterns. 17:15:13 You can just /give laterns out by the boatload even post-update, it's not really an issue that way. 17:15:35 Anyway, if "hard to get" just means you need iron and lightstone dust, that's not especially hard after all. 17:15:40 I still think torches look nicer. 17:15:53 We haven't even seen lanterns, I don't know how you can compare. 17:16:18 fizzie: I know what a lantern looks like. 17:16:21 They don't look like torches. :p 17:17:07 Well, something like http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/File:Praha_laterne-00-2003_12_22.jpg (second google-image hit for "lantern") doesn't look so bad, as long as it's not overdone. 17:17:37 Not as atmospheric as torches! 17:20:56 Well, the details will probably be out soon. 17:21:11 Lanterns aren't next week,a nyway. 17:21:15 -!- kar8nga has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 17:21:23 elliott, what would the crafting for a lantern be? 17:21:33 Phantom_Hoover: Iron and lightstone dust. 17:21:33 And then we can see if we'll start to get night-time monsters as well. ;) 17:21:37 Compare: stick and coal. 17:21:45 elliott, that is a problem... 17:21:48 Phantom_Hoover: Yes it is. 17:21:57 Get ineiros to give us piles of them? 17:22:03 The "problem" seems to be that you're just utterly lazy bums. 17:22:03 Why do you speculate so much? 17:22:11 ineiros: ...because it's been revealed? 17:23:03 elliott: Which part? And where? Details have a tendency to change. 17:23:33 Oh, it seems it may not be confirmed (lightstone). 17:24:01 Bleh, whatever. 17:27:14 you need about one torch every 10 seconds, and i've found like 20 iron altogether 17:27:21 (i don't dig down) 17:28:10 I have 198 iron stockpiled at the moment, and anyway it's not like torches are going to go *away*, they just flop off and need to be relighted as you go with flint-and-steel. 17:28:48 Anyway, we'll see about the rarity. Maybe it's only lightstone dust, which you can get by the billions and billions in the Nether. (Though he *did* say that bit about lanterns being "hard to get" somewhere.) 17:35:44 i don't believe in nether, my block figure is an atheist. 17:43:07 does anyone know if stinky pirates like oklopol can connect to servers 17:43:19 (he's finnish so he gets automatic rights to do so) 17:43:30 i have the server addr 17:44:25 i pirated it 17:45:27 elliott: hmm, there are special rules for finns? 17:45:27 my pirated copy of mc even came with a server program, so it would be a bit surprising if there was no way to do server stuff with it 17:46:04 Hey, can oklopol play on the Esoteric Order server/ 17:46:23 ineiros has given his blessing 17:46:24 ais523: it's a finnish server so 17:46:25 I don't see why people think they're entitled to pirate things 17:46:41 ais523: no, i have automatic right to get on the server 17:46:47 ais523: because copyright law is bullshit 17:46:48 *an 17:47:01 ais523: same way i wouldn't obey a law that, say, forbid me from saying the word "egg" 17:47:05 oklopol, can you join in here? 17:47:14 oklopol: the servers check for login, i think 17:47:21 maybe i'll try, even though i'm in the middle of some really exciting stuff. 17:47:22 elliott: indeed; I can see arguments for pirating things like abandonware, but why would you pirate stuff that would be copyrighted even under a sane copyright law? 17:47:33 ais523: I don't believe in a sane copyright law. 17:47:41 ais523: I oppose copyright; simple as that. 17:48:07 Sgeo: i liked that article on the monad intuitions 17:48:12 Sgeo: thanks for the link 17:48:16 yw 17:48:29 elliott: hmm, that seems a little ridiculous; copyright law is out of control, but as far as I can tell the basic idea is a good one 17:48:30 hehe, i just got "Legal in Finland" as a title screen 17:48:41 oklopol, can you connect to us? 17:48:41 ais523: I disagree. 17:48:50 Phantom_Hoover: i don't seem to be able to 17:48:53 user not premium. 17:48:54 ais523: i'm with alise on copyright 17:48:55 Aww. 17:48:59 ais523: i see it as a negative thing 17:49:07 ais523: i agree with you 17:49:15 oklopol: it says that when you actually try and connect? hmm 17:49:42 The server does a player verification thing, methinks. 17:49:49 Because it's down when minecraft.net is down. 17:50:03 Returns some sort of passed-on exception about a minecraft.net URL. 17:50:08 bleh 17:50:45 FIZZIE 17:50:48 WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON 17:50:51 IT IS IMPORTANT 17:51:11 elliott: what's your position on trademarks, patents, and trade secrets? 17:51:18 fizzie: i disagree with cheater99, it's not important 17:51:21 ais523: what do you think? 17:51:29 (I don't think those can be necessarily inferred from someone's position on copyrights) 17:51:45 oklopol: I see nothing wrong with even the literal wording of current trademark law, although sometimes people try to use it in rather odd ways 17:51:58 I'm undecided on patents, but think if they're viable at all they should be shortened to reasonable lengths 17:52:17 ais523: Trademarks seem reasonable enough to me. Patents are, in their current form, beyond broken; I am open to the idea that the basic concept has some merit, but until someone demonstrates this to me, I oppose them. 17:52:21 and I think trade secrets are sort-of redundant with the other laws 17:52:39 ais523: I don't think revealing trade secrets should be punishable at all, unless we interpret "trade secrets" differently. 17:52:50 ais523: nono, your opinion on whether fizzie should tell his opinioin. 17:52:53 *opinion 17:53:15 see i prefer the metaconversation. 17:53:34 oklopol: oh; I don't think anyone should be forced to join a particular conversation on IRC, but notifying them of a conversation they might be interested in is entirely appropriate 17:53:44 ais523: i think copyright is idiotic. i think trade secrets are good idea. i think patents are idiotic. i don't have a position on trademarks. 17:53:55 cheater99: hmm, interesting 17:54:15 the thing with a copyrightless universe is that the vast majority of currently copyrightable things would never be released at all 17:54:30 very good 17:54:41 for instance, you have a legal right to look at the FBI's declassified files in America, but if you choose to, they take you into a room and give you a paper copy to look at 17:54:43 that takes out the people who do it just to get money from copyrights 17:55:04 and leaves in the money who release things because they want to let the world know about those things 17:55:12 and you don't have much of an ability to do anything with the information but memorise it 17:55:12 i.e. the true musicians, researchers, directors 17:55:18 the money? :P 17:55:26 s/money/people/ 17:55:29 :D 17:55:36 cheater99: that's not what would happen at all, though 17:55:37 i found that very funny 17:55:41 !addquote s/money/people 17:55:51 ` 17:55:57 films would be shown only in closed cinemas which people had to sign non-disclosure agreements to be allowed to enter, etc 17:56:01 ais523: funny, mathematics has been very happy and prosperous for thousands of years without the notion of copyright 17:56:14 No output. 17:56:14 `addquote s/money/people 17:56:18 262|s/money/people 17:56:18 and buskers don't use NDAs 17:56:18 hmm 17:56:24 right 17:56:34 ais523: Please stop preventing your opinion as fact. Thanks. 17:56:37 erm. 17:56:39 ais523: Please stop presenting your opinion as fact. Thanks. 17:56:48 elliott: I'm presenting a prediction, as a prediction 17:56:49 -!- sshc has joined. 17:57:00 ais523: "films would be shown only" -- this is not "I predict that films would be shown only". 17:57:11 yes it is 17:57:12 opinions and facts are both just statements, I don't think there's any particular grammatical distinction between them 17:57:27 ais523: i've had a bit of that same reaction, but i let it slip due to the fact that it's only your opinion that you're expressing. 17:57:32 ais523: there is in ithkuil 17:57:40 oklopol: ooh, interesting to know 17:57:51 what's ithkuil? 17:58:20 cheater99: there will always be people who are willing to do things altruistically, or be paid to release them by governments (which is how maths and science has traditionally developed, even centuries ago) 17:58:30 at least iirc 17:58:36 it's ages since i read the grammar 17:58:51 ais523: yes. those are the people who are worth it 17:58:51 but expecting them to get a reasonable level of funding to carry on their lives just from that, in most cases, is like expecting communism to work correctly 17:59:08 ais523: i don't want to read anything written by losers who can't even sustain themselves 17:59:13 ais523: cruel but true 17:59:33 cheater99: except, those are the people who release things for free 17:59:42 no, not really 18:00:01 ais523: life is about sustaining yourself and then doing the fun stuff. if someone can sustain themselves enough to be able to e.g. have free time to write a book, i respect them 18:00:05 most people who release to open-source software, say, do it as a hobby as an antidote to a job in closed-source software 18:00:10 if someone's job is "writing a book" then that's a BS job 18:00:17 yes 18:00:25 those people are able to sustain themselves 18:00:30 AND do the fun stuff 18:00:34 cheater99: they wouldn't be able to without copyright, though 18:00:41 because their employers would have no reason to pay them 18:00:42 why wouldn't they? 18:00:53 of course they would 18:01:03 you're very very wrong to think that 18:01:14 likewise, most authors sell the rights to their books to a publisher 18:01:22 i work under a contract that is based on services 18:01:25 not on delivery 18:01:27 ais523: see in a perfect world, everyone has an interesting job for which they don't get payed, and also work at mcdonalds. 18:01:30 cheater99: the contract wouldn't exist 18:01:39 wtf are you talking about right now 18:01:45 oklopol: heh, that's a great parody of cheater99's argument 18:01:57 my contract wouldn't exist if there was no copyright? 18:02:04 cheater99: what is your day job? 18:02:11 That sounds like an elliott world 18:02:17 ais523: it's a parody of all copyright haters' arguments, but i'm sure i just understand their arguments wrong. 18:02:18 writing software 18:02:31 and why does your company pay you to do that? 18:02:40 they pay me for the "writing". 18:02:54 they pay because i come in at 9 am, i do what's asked of me, and leave at 5 pm. 18:03:03 it's just like laying bricks. 18:03:03 cheater99: no, you have cause and effect backwards 18:03:05 ais523: Why are you feeding the moron and/or troll? 18:03:09 you do /that/ because they pay you to 18:03:11 no, i haven't 18:03:13 well, this is pretty exactly what elliott told me years ago, but maybe i understood slightly wrong back then, too, and, well, elliott was pretty stupid back then :) 18:03:19 *pretty much 18:03:20 You're saying the same things over and over again. 18:03:28 oklopol: actually this is nothing like anything i've ever said :) 18:03:33 i wasn't as stupid as i seemed, just terrible at explanation 18:03:42 elliott: you're right, he's trying to make you look bad by agreeing with you and then defending the argument really badly 18:03:51 sort-of like a strawman, just with multiple people involved 18:03:58 ais523: now you've gone off on a tangent 18:04:23 cheater99: IRC channels aren't limited to a single subject 18:04:26 ais523: (or he's just stupid) 18:04:28 ais523: you make a lot of assertions without basing them in any sort of logical reasoning 18:04:32 if you can't participate in multiple channels at once, you need more practice 18:04:33 I have no idea what he said. 18:04:43 *multiple conversations at once 18:04:48 ais523: there's no reason to be derogatory 18:04:49 ais523: He'd have to be pretty dedicated to being casually stupid all the time to be a troll. 18:05:03 elliott: i told you i wanted to be a programmer, and that would be harder without the concept of copyright (back then it was slightly less common for companies to release open stuff and still somehow get moneys afaik), you told me you yourself are just gonna get a real job, and do the programming for free, as should others. 18:05:04 elliott: I suppose so 18:05:20 elliott: i find it funny that you have to resort to denigrating people 18:05:33 oklopol: no i didn't 18:05:38 oklopol: i was probably hallucinating, if i did say that 18:05:39 elliott: but i guess if that helps you get by in your life, there's not much that can be done about it 18:05:39 cheater99: you weren't even in an argument with him! 18:05:56 ais523: Oh, just put him on /ignore like everyone else already. 18:05:59 ais523: yes. and he started attacking me for no reason. 18:06:08 elliott: my /ignore threshhold is /really/ high 18:06:14 (it has been met on occasion, though) 18:06:20 (although not by cheater99) 18:06:30 elliott: or i've dreamt the whole conversation, would've be the first time that happened 18:06:30 elliott: your problem is that you think everyone is like you. you're one of the few if not the only person to have me on ignore here. 18:06:34 *wouldn't 18:06:43 ais523: If you keep talking to him I'll probably ignore you temporarily until you stop; XChat can't ignore mentions of names... 18:07:01 oklopol: yesterday I dreamt I'd overslept and woken up really late 18:07:01 ais523: so, coming back to the original conversation: why would my job not exist if there were no copyright? 18:07:13 i did that, except it wasn't a dream 18:07:17 what a coincidence 18:07:19 cheater99: let's take this to #esoteric-offtopic 18:07:31 ais523: it's not like this place is ever on topic 18:08:00 Offtopic stuff goes in #esoteric :p 18:08:00 I know, it was mostly to carry it on without disturbing the regulars 18:08:13 but I was pretty sure the channel existed already 18:08:18 ais523: i see no reason to move the conversation somewhere else. if you're annoyed by elliott's interjections, you just have to accept that he's childish, and then it's fine. 18:08:33 #esoteric-stupid 18:08:40 cheater99: I'm not annoyed by them; it's a reverse, I'm trying not to annoy /him/, with something which is, after all, not the purpose of the channel 18:08:47 " oklopol: yesterday I dreamt I'd overslept and woken up really late" <<< is this uncommon for you? 18:08:51 cheater99: I'm not annoyed by them; it's a reverse, I'm trying not to annoy /him/, with something which is, after all, not the purpose of the channel 18:08:52 this is confusing 18:08:55 that's like the most boring kind of dream :D 18:09:17 oklopol: I do dream of waking up and getting on with my life occasionally 18:09:26 ais523: he'll choose to get annoyed at anything, randomly. 18:09:32 but normally when I do I wake up at the proper time and go through the motions 18:09:37 `revert 18:09:38 Done. 18:09:45 `quote 262 18:09:46 262|s/money/people 18:09:54 ugh, revert is brokena gain 18:09:56 *broken again 18:09:59 ais523: the best way to handle childish people is to ignore it when they spit out the sucker and start waahing 18:10:02 cheater99: that statement is very unlike ehird, to me; there are things that annoy ehird, but they certainly aren't chosen at random, and that's quite a character slur 18:10:18 ais523: that also happens to everybody. it's when you don't know which stuff happened in a dream and which stuff didn't when you're in trouble 18:10:34 09:59:08 ais523: i don't want to read anything written by losers who can't even sustain themselves 18:10:34 09:59:13 ais523: cruel but true 18:10:38 oklopol: I do, but only after I wake up 18:10:39 wow, he really *is* stupid. 18:10:54 while I'm asleep, I don't know the difference 18:11:00 ais523: notice he started this conversation, but then when i started talking with you he decided i shouldn't be taking part, so he started his interjections 18:11:11 ais523: that's just a childish social tactic, why are you giving in? 18:11:12 ais523: I'll note that cheater99 has this cycle of being faux saccharine "nice" to me for no real reason, acting offended when I disregard him because he's stupid and irritating, and then switching to being stupid and irritating. 18:11:14 cheater99: no, I started the conversation 18:11:17 Period of silence, restart. 18:11:33 ais523: you're right. i saw that he was one of the first people to join it, though. 18:11:45 ais523: well of course you don't know what's dream and what's not *in the dream*, otherwise the dream would become lucid 18:12:21 but when you're awake, whatever you think is actually dream should certainly be exactly what has been a dream. 18:12:48 -!- wareya has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 18:13:15 ais523: the fact doesn't change that he's making a mess right now just because he doesn't like me. since i have no idea why that is, i have just decided to start ignoring this part of his behaviour. 18:13:37 -!- wareya has joined. 18:14:00 10:06:30 elliott: your problem is that you think everyone is like you. you're one of the few if not the only person to have me on ignore here. 18:14:02 ais523: like, he was friendly to me for some time, and then he totally swayed to the other pole and got really pissed off for no reason that i know of. then he started ignoring me and/or insulting me. 18:14:04 Phantom_Hoover and Vorpal don't exist, for one. 18:14:08 Well-known fact. 18:14:30 another well-known fact, people can't converse through text 18:15:09 absolutely... err what 18:15:18 ais523: when i asked him why, he just wouldn't answer, choosing to be hateful and childish instead of telling me what annoyed him and trying to even things out. 18:15:36 ais523: so, here's why i think he just starts hating things and/or people at random. 18:17:13 cheater99: actually, it's the fact that it's fairly hard to tell whether someone's a troll or just stupid, so I erred on the side of caution until you came out with your ridiculous glob of incomprehensible sexism that tipped me off. 18:17:32 (it's actually both) 18:17:47 "ridiculous glob of incomprehensible sexism" what? 18:18:13 women are stupider than men, but they compensate by being hotter 18:18:41 oklopol tries so desperately hard to get an ignore from me, but he never will 18:18:46 :( 18:18:54 but i really think that! 18:19:46 elliott: you're just trying hard to find any sort of thing that bothers you in me, to the point of blowing up small issues or making things up 18:19:53 on average, my experience is they are a lot stupider, with the rather limited measures of intelligence i possess 18:20:50 i'd say it's more that there's social pressure for women to act stupid but whatever 18:21:20 well i'm not claiming that's not the reason 18:21:27 elliott: some time ago you've decided i'm the "enemy", and now you'll do anything you can to prove that to yourself, because it's easier to go back to your old ways, than to admit you might have to change your pre-conceptions 18:21:49 Someone actually submitted something to /r/esolangs 18:21:51 elliott: which is childish, hence i stopped caring 18:21:51 WTF? 18:22:00 in fact by intelligence, i may just mean the amount of interest for math :D 18:22:06 Sgeo: what have they submitted? 18:22:14 oklopol: my maths course was 95% women 18:22:38 about 50% are women in our dep 18:22:42 maybe more 18:23:01 95%? cool 18:23:03 so how can you say women are less interested than men? 18:23:06 Some befunge-93 interpreter 18:23:16 Sgeo: ah 18:23:24 Sgeo: ... does it work? :D 18:23:53 cheater99: because among the best ones, at least 60% are men 18:24:05 Have no idea, haven't tried it, but the idea of activity on /r/esolangs makes me lol 18:24:09 oklopol: ah.. but that's not really interest, but proficiency.. 18:24:18 oklopol: personally, I blame it on the education system 18:24:29 people tend to assume that women are bad at math and so don't teach them properly 18:24:47 cheater99: right, so maybe my measure of intelligence also takes proficiency to account. also, i may just be sexist. 18:25:01 oklopol: you monster 18:25:03 :D 18:25:16 ais523: yeah, i've seen that quite a lot.. 18:25:41 ais523: that's a very common argument 18:25:58 and i certainly do not claim there's any sort of difference between the brains of men and women 18:27:00 i don't really believe people's brains have much difference anyway, it's all about interest & dedication. 18:27:38 which i believe is mostly environment 18:28:36 also the environment/genetics issue is hilarious, every now and then there's a new study that says "turns out it's all X, no Y" with X != Y being the two in any order 18:29:14 maybe that'd be fixed if i knew which sources were reliable and which are not 18:30:18 actually i don't care about any of this very much, i have a tunnel to dig 18:30:53 cheater99: seen the argument or the assuming 18:31:13 oklopol: not sure what you mean, can you rephrase? 18:31:25 cheater99: you've seen that quite a lot, what have you seen 18:31:42 the assuming 18:31:49 right, just checking 18:32:27 i tend to try to teach stuff to women because i love talking about math, but i don't try to teach men that much because men are utterly uninteresting objects 18:32:36 "people tend to X" /\ "i've seen that a lot" => "i've seen X done a lot" 18:32:54 oklopol: so true! 18:32:57 you can't have sex with them, so why talk to them or teach them 18:33:08 oklopol: after my first year in maths, i went to do physics as a second course 18:33:21 oklopol: i was giving a lot of house help :p 18:33:43 i thought you were gay 18:33:49 .D 18:33:51 :D 18:34:07 why? :P 18:34:13 i don't really know. 18:34:17 or remember. 18:34:45 naw, i'm not 18:34:57 but i can pretend to if it makes you feel better around me, sweetheart 18:35:02 :D 18:35:23 i'd love that, augur is so absently these days. 18:35:52 i should do some minecraft now 18:36:10 hm 18:36:41 enjoy 18:36:51 it's not so much that i actually want to have sex with every woman i talk to. it's more like if i plant a tree, i'll feel good about myself even though i'll never see it again, but if i planted a tree in another universe, that'd feel just pointless. 18:37:35 well i do want to have sex with every woman i talk to, in the sense that i'd love for life to be just one big math orgy. 18:38:08 but in the sense of actually trying to get in people's pants in this social context, not so much 18:40:11 also in this ideal world i'm bisexual for convenience 18:41:25 lol 18:41:33 erm so i found my first lave 18:41:35 ehm 18:41:37 *love 18:41:39 actually 18:41:40 *lava 18:41:45 and 18:41:53 it's starting to rise, does it rise forever? 18:42:05 oklopol: you want to get rid of that. try water. 18:42:20 but do i have to quickly block that leak 18:42:37 also do i get obsidian when lava meets water 18:43:28 also i just reached bedrock so maybe i'll just dig somewhere else 18:43:53 oklopol: bedrock is not always level 0 fwiw 18:44:17 i guessed that, but so there is a level 0 18:44:21 i didn't actually know that 18:44:23 oklopol: "Obsidian is a deep purple block that was first released into that game at version 0.30. Obsidian may be found on rare occasions, when there is flowing Water and still Lava nearby. Obsidian is created when flowing water hits a lava spring; when a water spring and a lava spring collide it creates cobblestone." 18:44:32 oklopol: there's also a level infinity (128) 18:44:37 oklopol: 64 above sea level 18:45:13 this i knew, but for some reason i wasn't sure 0 or -127 would be ununderable. 18:45:26 i probably should've been sure about that 18:45:48 oklopol is 25: http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/11/national_geographics_photograp.html 18:46:25 actually, also on 24! 18:46:34 having lied about my age all this time would explain my constantly getting my age wrong 18:46:49 "25" is the number of the photo. 18:47:03 oklopol: how old are you actually 18:47:06 yeah sorry, opens slowly 18:47:29 oklopol: my family shall seek revenge from your family for centuries! 18:51:16 oklopol: like the lava pic? :O 18:52:01 i liked it lot. 18:55:39 i can't believe i'm doing this 18:55:53 this room is fairly cold, have a wild guess what i'm using to warm it up 19:01:08 * cheater99 has just carried in a huge CRT 19:01:34 i'm sure that'll make it nice and cozy warm in here 19:01:56 YAY DS WORKS ON WIN7 19:02:21 ds? 19:02:34 Docking Station 19:02:43 great 19:02:48 what laptop? 19:03:18 so what about those blocks that look like stone with small lava bubbles in them 19:03:25 oklopol: wat 19:03:31 cheater99, how is that relevant? 19:03:37 what are those 19:03:55 Sgeo: it's a tangent topic 19:04:35 more precisely, should i hit it with my pickaxe, or will there be lava 19:04:49 Is lava a bad thing? 19:04:58 yes 19:05:12 then hit it 19:05:12 oklopol: screenshot 19:05:13 :D 19:05:18 (F1+F2, then it's in wherever minecraft saves are) 19:05:21 or just... press screenshot 19:05:23 http://imgur.com/ 19:05:35 or 19:05:36 oklopol: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Blocks 19:05:39 oklopol: which is it 19:05:49 oklopol: Redstone Ore? 19:05:54 oklopol: if so, that's good and you want it. 19:05:58 oklopol: it's what makes circuits 19:06:30 ohh 19:06:52 see i was sure it had to do with lava, so i just checked the lava page :) 19:11:10 -!- sshc has quit (Read error: Operation timed out). 19:41:56 elliott: btw ofc i mined that with a stone axe :D 19:42:08 (found more tho) 19:42:20 oklopol: you should buy it so you can come to the multiplayer world 19:42:36 think of it as an ENTRANCE FEE! 19:43:01 i'm planning to, i just can't do it before i get my credit card, which is on monday 19:43:03 -!- Sasha2 has joined. 19:43:56 oklopol: you can use MY ACCOUNT (no) 19:44:14 -!- Sasha has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 19:44:17 yay diamond 19:44:52 oklopol, you need iron axe for that 19:44:58 hey ineiros there's unofficial custom server software for alpha 19:45:08 i know, learned to check before picking from that redstone blunder. 19:45:09 oklopol: can i join you in minecraftism? 19:45:20 they probably have stupid stuff like health though 19:45:22 cheater99: yes, what do you mean? 19:45:22 oklopol: meaning, would i be able to join your server? 19:45:24 oklopol, well, redstone is quite common. Unlike diamond 19:45:28 i don't have a server. 19:45:40 "Adv. Physics: Does the server have advanced physics like water?" 19:45:48 pure misconception. all 3d games are client-server based. 19:46:05 elliott, link to this page? 19:46:07 Vorpal: saw my first gold, redstone and diamond withing 10 blocks of each other 19:46:20 oklopol, happens sometimes. Rare though 19:46:29 well i may have seen gold before and confused with that other thing, because i recall occasionally that other thing gave me nothing 19:46:45 oklopol, "other thing" being iron? 19:46:53 probably 19:46:57 Vorpal: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Alpha_Custom_Server_List 19:47:09 Vorpal: mineserver has such advanced physics as WATER so loks like the most viable option 19:47:15 yeah iron 19:47:25 "Currently in (early) development. (Alpha stage) Server still lacks some critical features and should be only used for testing." 19:47:53 oklopol: is it possible to set up a server for people to play on? 19:48:05 or is it like only servers provided by the game dev? 19:49:16 oklopol, you want that definitely 19:49:20 heheh: http://twitpic.com/1xavz 19:52:41 cheater99: i know the least about this game on this channel 19:52:49 but yeah anyone can put up a server why not 19:52:55 oh ok 19:53:04 oklopol, need lot of RAM 19:53:05 oklopol: and you're wrong, i know even less! 19:53:10 i could probably put up a server you ppl could join, i assume the server thing that came with the torrent is some hacked thingie 19:53:15 oklopol, it complains with less than 2 GB for itself 19:53:16 iirc 19:53:33 is the server windows, or linux? 19:54:01 i don't have a lot of ram 19:54:16 and i didn't mean i could do it right now or anything, just in theory 19:54:19 -!- augur has joined. 19:55:12 yeah 19:59:32 half the things i carry are pickaxes 19:59:39 i seriously wish they'd stack 20:00:08 Stone or wood? 20:00:12 stone 20:00:28 all i do is pick 20:02:16 11:45:48 pure misconception. all 3d games are client-server based. 20:02:18 Minecraft isn't. 20:02:34 also, you have to buy the game to connect to any server, the server oklopol has is downloadable from the website for free :p 20:03:31 Awesome things said by me on IRC 20:03:38 I'm wondering if I accidentally killed her 20:05:15 http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=midibox_pokey < want 20:05:29 cheater99: well, that pattern certainly doesn't extend to 4D games 20:05:34 no client/server architecture in adanaxis 20:05:50 i've never played adanaxis 20:06:07 cheater99: just because you haven't played a game doesn't mean it doesn't exist 20:06:47 ais523: just because you didn't notice i was making a comical generalization doesn't mean cows are green 20:06:54 * Sgeo downloads 20:07:17 There's a client/server architecture in Enigma 20:07:19 "I'm wrong? Oh, uh, it was a joke. Ha ha. ha." 20:07:35 ais523: there should be a game that takes place in the Monster group 20:07:56 Which is weird because it's a single-player game, but last I asked, it was to ensure good design 20:08:04 :D 20:08:28 Is the demo feature-limited, or time-limited? 20:08:58 i was thinking there should be a game where you can explore cayley graphs, you always see some sort of 3d projection or your local neighborhood 20:09:24 Sgeo: demo of what 20:09:25 Sgeo: minecraft? 20:09:33 it has no demo 20:09:36 Sgeo: adanaxis? 20:09:42 Sgeo: which Enigma, there are at least three games called that 20:09:59 (no doubt you're going to mention one I don't know now...) 20:10:28 you could give the presentation of the group, of course kind of hard to show the correct neighborhood, and undecidable in general, but it would be fun if it'd worked even for simple graphs 20:12:12 oklopol: yes, and your movement has to conform to some sort of n>3-dimensional vector field 20:12:17 :D 20:13:23 elliott, adanaxis for the demo thing 20:13:28 ais523, the one with the marble 20:13:28 Sgeo: it's Free 20:13:35 Sgeo: you're downloading the wrong thing 20:13:56 cheater99: i was thinking just discrete jumps from u to u * generator_i :) 20:14:06 elliott, o.O? 20:14:14 oklopol: oh, like in a chess game? 20:14:20 Sgeo: Care to restate that but with more.... meaning? 20:14:30 elliott, "wrong thing"? 20:14:41 you're downloading the demo of it from when it was non-Free 20:14:43 kinda, except you have to do some sort of weird zooming when the group is not commutative 20:15:01 or monoid, but might be a bit annoying 20:15:10 (because it means not being able to come back) 20:15:36 (in case someone is listening but didn't know that, which i find unlikely) 20:15:52 elliott, is there a Windows Free version? I just see a Linux/GPL version on the site that's free (as in both) 20:16:36 Sgeo: dunno, use linux 20:18:14 okay redstone is everywhere when you're down low 20:18:36 It is. 20:18:54 It's more common than iron ore, at least in the tunnel to Mt.
