00:12:10 <ajf> hi pikhq
00:12:17 <ajf> My interpreter is finished :D
00:13:38 <wareya_> oh hi ajf
00:13:47 <ajf> ohi wareya_
00:13:54 -!- azaq23 has quit (Quit: Leaving.).
00:13:55 <ajf> I finished my shitty language's interpreter
00:13:59 <ajf> Actually
00:14:04 <ajf> It is an interesting language.
00:14:10 <wareya_> s-z says to call you fag
00:14:12 <wareya_> and that he said it
00:14:17 <ajf> lol
00:14:36 <wareya_> how's your language
00:14:37 <ajf> wareya_: http://www.esolangs.org/wiki/Deviating_Percolator
00:14:39 <ajf> Fine
00:14:40 <wareya_> is it better than 1d boat?
00:14:44 <ajf> maybe
00:14:56 <wareya_> 8:15 PM - Kaviera: yup a fag would anser like that B3
00:14:58 <ajf> My language cannot be compiled
00:15:01 <wareya_> 8:15 PM - Kaviera: answer
00:15:01 <wareya_> 8:15 PM - Kaviera: ffffffffff
00:16:04 <ajf> wareya_: have a look at my language
00:16:10 <ajf> it is wierd
00:16:22 <wareya_> this is really weird
00:16:28 <wareya_> mine was like a stripped down C
00:16:38 <ajf> haha
00:16:46 <ajf> mine was... I have no idea why now
00:16:48 <wareya_> you could have negative sized variables
00:16:50 <ajf> I just thought of it
00:16:52 <ajf> lol
00:17:17 <ajf> Also mine has a working interpreter
00:17:31 <ajf> Horrible code, but works
00:17:40 <wareya_> mine doesn't
00:17:43 <wareya_> I'm too lazy
00:17:53 <wareya_> I should be working on my game's platforming physics code
00:18:09 <ajf> meh
00:18:34 <wareya_> I redesigned my language like 5 times
00:18:39 <ajf> hmm
00:18:48 <wareya_> the wiki only has version 2
00:18:49 <ajf> I designed this language in November last year
00:18:53 <ajf> forgot about it
00:19:00 <ajf> remembered it today
00:19:14 <ajf> also I removed some stuff to make implementation easier
00:19:19 <ajf> also to make more sense
00:20:45 <ajf> oh
00:20:48 <ajf> boat is by you
00:20:49 <ajf> oic

00:24:21 <ajf> wareya_ what do you think of DevPerc
00:24:53 <wareya_> it's a good esolang
00:26:54 <ajf> also the wiki needs fixing main page from esolangs.org does not work

02:07:29 <Lymia> Let's make a language based on either English or Japanese grammar... and looks like Perl.
02:08:33 <Lymia> elliott, you in?
02:08:40 <elliott> Nope :P

02:41:34 -!- wareya_ has changed nick to wareya.
02:42:14 <monqy> lots of languages have screwy grammar
02:42:35 <monqy> are context-sensitive grammars inherently screwier than context-free grammars?
02:44:17 -!- hagb4rd has joined.
02:46:54 <elliott> hmm
02:46:58 <elliott> I should implement that language
02:47:28 <Lymia> monqy, something based on Japanese shouldn't be all that hard to parse.
02:47:29 <Lymia> That's all.

02:56:35 <oerjan> SO. MUCH. SPAM.
02:57:18 <Lymia> Yep!
02:59:26 <elliott> it's human I think
02:59:29 <elliott> one of them used an undo link

02:59:56 <elliott> ok that's just weird
03:00:03 <elliott> i guess it thinks it is the comment link, maybe?
03:00:06 <elliott> if it is meant to be a comment spambot
03:01:13 <Lymia> elliott, link to the history page in question?
03:01:21 <elliott> see recent changes :)
03:01:27 <elliott> already closed that tab :P
03:01:59 * pikhq curses at WorldEdit
03:02:04 <pikhq> It doesn't seem to handle powered rail.
03:04:14 <Lymia> What is this bot?
03:04:28 <Lymia> It seems to exist for no reason but to mess up the site.
03:05:02 <elliott> It's called a spambot.
03:05:07 <elliott> You must be new to the internet.
03:05:28 <Lymia> elliott, I mean.
03:05:31 <Lymia> There's no purpose to doing it.
03:05:37 <Lymia> It's not like it's linking anything.
03:06:02 <elliott> well, I suspect it's trying to send a form field for a link, but it think it's a blog comment thing
03:06:08 <elliott> or, it's just testing whether the site is susceptible to spamming
03:06:12 <elliott> to sell it on to other spammers
03:06:13 <elliott> etc. etc. etc.

03:14:08 <zzo38> Have you ever made a file called README containing the words "README: No such file or directory" in a public system?
03:14:31 <elliott> No.
03:14:42 <zzo38> I have done once.
03:16:42 <zzo38> What else I have once done is in a Windows 98 system, made a HTML file with a screenshot of the desktop screen and then program it to display the message "RESTRICTED" whenever it is double-clicked, and then set it up to display full-screen in the task scheduler.
03:17:20 <monqy> one time I observed a windows system where all the shortcuts were set to run shutdown
03:17:23 <monqy> it was pretty rad
03:17:32 <zzo38> monqy: Where and when was this?
03:17:55 <monqy> highschool a few years ago
03:19:02 <Lymia> http://www.esolangs.org/wiki/NOT_A_PROGRAM < Let's turn this joke into an actual programming language.
03:19:23 <zzo38> Lymia: Try. But I do not think it can, that is not really its purpose.
03:21:46 <zzo38> Have you heard of "Schroedinger's Directory"? I think it might have been a file containing the words "cat: fldrA: Is a directory" or at least that is one possible explanation, I don't know what else could be.
03:25:11 <Lymia> Something corrupted on the file system?
03:25:35 <zzo38> Yes maybe that too.
03:25:49 <zzo38> I don't know how these commands act to a symbolic link to a directory.
03:25:57 <zzo38> Did you know? Egbert B. Gebstadter is the Egbert B. Gebstadter of indirect self-reference.
03:26:11 <Lymia> `run echo cat: fldrA: Is a directory > fldrA
03:26:17 <Lymia> Oh right, Gregor.
03:26:18 <Lymia> :<
03:26:48 <Gregor> No.
03:26:50 <Gregor> Oh right, Plazma.
03:26:56 <Gregor> But really, oh right, Lymia.
03:27:05 <Gregor> You made my bed, now I have to lie in it :P
03:27:08 <zzo38> What about Plazma?
03:27:36 <Gregor> Lymia made the bot say some random DCC request that apparently breaks wildly-broken clients, and Plazma made me take 'em offline 'til I fix them.
03:27:42 <Gregor> Which will be whenever I feel like it.
03:27:53 <zzo38> OK
03:27:59 <Gregor> Part of the fix will be if [ "$IRC_USER" = "Lymia" ] ; then echo 'Ha, no'; fi
03:28:13 <zzo38> I doubt that will help
03:28:16 * oerjan didn't see any clients break :(
03:28:26 <Gregor> zzo38: It won't, but it's cathartic :P
03:28:31 <Gregor> oerjan: Of course not.
03:28:32 <Lymia> Gregor, filter all output.
03:28:40 <Lymia> Else, the brainfuck program in question lives.
03:28:40 <Gregor> Lymia: That's what I intend to do.
03:28:48 <zzo38> Such as stripping all control character
03:29:15 <oerjan> ^bf +.
03:29:15 <fungot> <CTCP>

03:30:00 <oerjan> zzo38: but it's sad if the bots cannot emote :(
03:30:11 <zzo38> oerjan: I don't think it needs to
03:30:13 <elliott> <Gregor> Lymia made the bot say some random DCC request that apparently breaks wildly-broken clients, and Plazma made me take 'em offline 'til I fix them.
03:30:16 <elliott> Plazma?
03:30:50 <Gregor> See /whois Plazma :P
03:30:53 <elliott> Oh, is that one of the IRCops?
03:30:55 <oerjan> dammit
03:30:59 <elliott> Right :P
03:31:01 <elliott> IN OUR WAKE
03:32:45 <elliott> Gregor: I don't recall any clients actually being affected in any way here :P
03:33:42 <Gregor> Relevant?
03:33:53 <elliott> Gregor: ?
03:34:02 <Gregor> Is that relevant?
03:34:06 <Lymia> But yeah.
03:34:15 <Lymia> Apparently \1 does DCC.
03:34:25 <elliott> Gregor: It means it's even less relevant than that bash quote where saying "fuck" disconnected that guy repeatedly :P
03:34:27 <Lymia> And it needs to be filtered.
03:34:46 <monqy> iirc \1 does CTCP which does DCC
03:34:51 <elliott> erm, nothing wrong with CTCP
03:34:52 * elliott this is ctcp
03:34:56 <elliott> just that specific thing needs blockin
03:34:57 <elliott> g
03:35:03 <zzo38> Just strip all control characters would be the simplest way. (Or, convert them to unicode control pictures)
03:35:12 <oerjan> zzo38: NO FUN I SAY
03:36:09 <oerjan> will filtering for \1DCC at the start be enough?
03:36:20 <elliott> oerjan: you can technically ctcp in the middle of lines
03:36:33 <zzo38> Other option: Do KICK to Plazma.
03:36:41 <elliott> X-D
03:36:46 * elliott watches zzo38 get klined
03:36:49 <oerjan> elliott: yes but what clients do that? _especially_ wildly broken ones?
03:37:12 <zzo38> I can <CTCP>ACTION ctcp<CTCP> in middle of lines this client.
03:37:17 <elliott> oerjan: Hey, since we're defending against an entirely hypothetical occurrence...
03:37:22 <zzo38> But I don't know if yours can receive it.
03:37:23 <Lymia> I assume most clients escape it.
03:37:33 <oerjan> zzo38: yes and irssi doesn't treat that as a ctcp incoming
03:38:01 <oerjan> elliott: there could be an entirely hypothetical client which broke if you said "hi" as well
03:38:11 <elliott> And I'm going to build it and get ALL THESE BOTS taken down.

03:38:40 * fungot hugs Lymia
03:39:03 <monqy> does anything still have the stupid bug anymore?
03:39:11 <elliott> nothing in here at least :)
03:39:25 <Lymia> I actually misspelled it as "DCC SED"
03:39:33 <oerjan> >_>
03:39:40 <monqy> yeah that was a bit weird
03:40:13 <elliott> Lymia: so it actually did less than nothing at all :D
03:40:21 <Lymia> Yep.
03:40:23 <elliott> we should fix the typo just to check if anyone has the bug.
03:40:28 <elliott> you get right on that Lymia.
03:40:31 <Lymia> :<
03:40:33 <oerjan> ...
03:40:53 <elliott> oerjan: it's a public service
03:40:56 <zzo38> Some IRC servers will try to stop you sending certain words or combinations of words such as "startkeylogger". SlashNET network will put error message if you do that words in PRIVMSG or NOTICE but if you do in QUIT it will still do QUIT but delete the message. Appearently Furnet will disconnect you if you send "startkeylogger" no matter where it is.
03:41:05 <elliott> startkeylogger
03:41:08 <zzo38> But what if it is part of your reverse DNS?
03:41:15 <elliott> startkeylogger startkeylogger
03:41:17 <Lymia> zzo38, then you're a bastard.

03:42:57 <zzo38> elliott: Yes it would, but it would also involve reverse DNS.
03:43:03 <elliott> yes but that's not the objectionable part
03:43:45 <zzo38> (I have never connected there (because I never had to connect to find channels of my interest) so I cannot confirm myself; someone told me this. If I had access to this reverse DNS, then I would connect and try it by myself)
03:44:29 <monqy> channels of your interest? on furnet?
03:44:48 <Lymia> (let's (do-like (write english) lisp))
03:45:13 <monqy> what hideous dialect is that
03:45:19 <zzo38> I mean, like, I connect to here because of *this* channel, and some other channels such as ##C and so on I sometimes might ask a question. And also SlashNET because that one is MegaZeux.
03:45:50 <cheater53> what is megazeux?
03:45:57 <Lymia> I still can't figure out why Japanese reminds me of a programming language.
03:46:02 -!- hagb4rd has quit (Quit: hagb4rd).
03:46:25 <zzo38> cheater53: MegaZeux is a old game creation system but now it is made many new things, even I made some changes to MegaZeux too.
03:46:26 <elliott> rpn?
03:47:00 <zzo38> cheater53: Such as, this is my MegaZeux I made on here: http://zzo38computer.cjb.net/mzx1/mzx_extended/ There is other MegaZeux, too.
03:47:08 <zzo38> Which you might find elsewhere
03:48:54 <zzo38> But it is possible in SlashNET to use NS SET command to make prohibited words appearing when someone else uses NS INFO command.
03:49:06 <cheater53> man
03:49:12 <cheater53> why is linux so terrible today
03:49:26 <cheater53> i'm on a livecd and it's just churning and churning the dvd drive
03:49:47 <cheater53> terrible!
03:50:12 -!- hagb4rd has joined.
03:50:14 <zzo38> cheater53: Are you interested in MegaZeux? The last few times I have been in their channel, I have not seen any messages, or sometimes only one message.
03:50:20 <cheater53> i typed ls in a command prompt and it just doesn't do anything
03:50:40 <zzo38> cheater53: Is there no file?
03:51:02 <cheater53> zzo38, i might be interested if i were able to open the website. i can't, because linux is being stupid right now
03:51:11 <cheater53> no, it just hung on it
03:51:24 <cheater53> then i pressed ctrl-c and it said "Bus error: core dumped"
03:51:35 <zzo38> Something is then, seriously wrong.
03:51:41 <cheater53> no, it said "Bus error (core dumped)"
03:51:59 <zzo38> There is still something wrong.
03:52:05 <cheater53> yeah
03:52:20 <zzo38> Does the computer work properly without the Live CD?
03:52:53 <cheater53> it even works properly with the livecd
03:52:56 <oerjan> what _are_ these bus errors and why does linux have such terrible collective transport
03:52:58 <cheater53> except just right now
03:53:17 <cheater53> oerjan, i think it has to do with the INTERCAL "select" operator
03:53:27 <cheater53> remember? it talked about buses
03:53:29 <oerjan> ...well i meant in general.
03:53:47 <zzo38> What does INTERCAL have to do with your problem?
03:53:49 <cheater53> i think linux is written in INTERCAL
03:53:59 <zzo38> No, Linux is written in C.
03:54:10 <cheater53> isn't C written in INTERCAL?
03:54:24 <zzo38> (I don't know of any version of INTERCAL that allows writing operating systems)
03:54:30 <zzo38> No, C is written in C.
03:55:09 <cheater53> what if C were written in INTERCAL -- then it would make sense
03:55:16 <cheater53> ok, something's seriously fucked
03:55:36 <cheater53> it just doesn't want to do anything
03:55:53 <zzo38> That wouldn't be the case even if you wrote a C compiler in INTERCAL - the INTERCAL "select" operator does not do this kind of things
03:56:13 <zzo38> cheater53: Maybe the CD is scratched?
03:57:29 <cheater53> it's not
03:57:48 <cheater53> it was in the dvdrom all the time. it didn't get scratched while it was there.
04:00:53 <zzo38> Do you have another computer?

04:03:29 <zzo38> (Yes, it certainly seems broken.)
04:04:22 <oerjan> <zzo38> (I don't know of any version of INTERCAL that allows writing operating systems) <-- sheesh all you need is COME FROM BOOT SECTOR
04:04:40 <elliott> :D
04:04:57 <elliott> <oerjan> what _are_ these bus errors and why does linux have such terrible collective transport
04:05:01 <elliott> segfaults, except not on xeightsix
04:05:22 <oerjan> mhm
04:06:41 <zzo38> oerjan: I don't know of any version of INTERCAL that has such a command; although, if there was one, I suppose that would be the way to mark that the program is an operating system and where the program begins executing.
04:07:23 <zzo38> And if it has more than one COME FROM BOOT SECTOR then it is a operating system for multicores.

04:58:27 <cheater43> ...
04:58:47 <cheater43> so, i've fixed my computer by 1. rebooting it 2. making sure the problem doesn't happen again
04:59:08 <cheater43> which means that in other, but very related news i have finally found a use for the single copy of the bible that i have here.
04:59:48 <Sgeo> o.O?
05:02:16 <cheater43> well, galvanic and mechanical isolation mainly
05:03:17 <oerjan> so not exorcising a daemon from you pc, how boring
05:03:21 <oerjan> *your
05:03:34 <cheater43> instead of stacking all my hard drives one on top of the other so that they achieve the temperature of the sun and fuse into one glowing ball of plasma, i have decided to lay them out flat on top of the pc case. funnily enough the five 3.5" hard drives i have hooked up do work out to just the right dimension to take up the complete space up at the top.
05:03:43 <cheater43> one of the hard drives is sitting on the bible.
05:03:52 <cheater43> others are sitting on other books.
05:04:22 <cheater43> the bible is fairly useless, i only have it because i got it in a box of books which also contained other story books like the complete works of goethe, and german classics
05:04:30 <pikhq_> Which translation?
05:06:38 <cheater43> some german translation.
05:06:50 <pikhq_> Oh, sure, you foreigners.
05:06:54 <cheater43> oh, you mean of the german writers
05:07:00 <cheater43> no translation.
05:07:20 <cheater43> the bible is translated, though, because i don't think the germans were stupid enough to come up with this shit
05:07:25 <pikhq_> I was referring to the Bible.
05:07:35 <cheater43> even though they were, relatively speaking, cave men
05:08:33 <zzo38> So, you don't actually need any of these books for reading?
05:11:46 <zzo38> Do you know what the problem is?
05:12:11 <Sgeo> FlameSource setOnFire: zzo38.
05:12:20 <Sgeo> Hmm, wow that sucks
05:12:31 <zzo38> Sgeo: What does that mean?
05:13:00 <Sgeo> Sends the setOnFire: message to the class FlameSource, with zzo38 as an argument
05:13:29 <cheater43> zzo38, any of the books?
05:13:42 <cheater43> sure, i do have those books for reading
05:13:48 <cheater43> however, the bible is one exception
05:14:02 <cheater43> i pretty much have it for pulping, or for use as a general object
05:15:53 <zzo38> cheater43: Does that copy of the Bible include deuterocanonical books?
05:18:38 <zzo38> (Also called the apocrypha)
05:20:19 <zzo38> Although, there are three books of the apocrypha which are not part of the deuterocanonical books
05:20:52 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection).
05:23:57 <cheater43> i don't know.
05:24:25 <cheater43> it's performing the most important function it will ever perform in its life, it's actually being used to SUPPORT the transfer of information
05:24:34 <cheater43> so i don't want to remove it from under the hdd
05:25:11 <zzo38> Well, yes, keep it there for now. Books are also a physical object that you can put stuff on top of
05:31:34 <zzo38> I have a full copy of the King James Bible text in my computer but it does not include deuterocanonical and apocrypha.
05:33:33 <zzo38> Do you know where is ASCII text copy including these things?
05:35:59 <pikhq_> I'm going to go on a limb and say "Project Gutenberg".
05:37:29 <zzo38> OK I can look.
05:45:55 <zzo38> Why can't C support constants ("abcdefg"[1]) and so on?
05:46:41 <cheater43> <zzo38> Why can't >>C<< support constants ("abcdefg"[1]) and so on?
05:46:44 <cheater43> found your problem.
05:47:10 <cheater43> suggest you use a saner, more powerful language, such as befunge.
05:48:36 <pikhq_> "abcdefg"[1] is entirely valid in C, and equivalent to 'b'.
05:49:19 <zzo38> pikhq_: In my computer it is error wherever a constant is expected.
05:49:32 <pikhq_> Oh, right, it wouldn't be a constant expression.
05:50:11 <pikhq_> Well, you could probably get the behavior you want with C++. >:D
05:52:31 <zzo38> Of course I could also used the C interpreter in Enhanced CWEB to make a macro that takes two arguments, one string and one expression, and expand to (x==1?'a':(x==2?'b':...... and so on but then it won't work if the C preprocessor of the compiler has a macro of a string that the prepreprocessor won't see
05:52:53 <cheater43> yes
05:53:01 <cheater43> your bookram will definitely become more legible this way
05:53:03 <zzo38> But I also think that it should make sense that C should accept such thing as "abcdefg"[1] where constant should be?
05:53:22 <pikhq_> It'd certainly be nicer.
05:53:40 <pikhq_> But you must remember, C seems to presume that the compiler is positively *stupid*.
05:55:08 <zzo38> Do you know if they allow such constants as that in the next C standards document that is not written yet? I think in the newer standards they improve some things but other things are unnecessary
05:55:32 <pikhq_> I don't *think* C1X is adding that.
05:56:25 <zzo38> In my opinion, they add a lot of things they ought not to, and yet they forget some stuff that would make a bit of sense
05:57:24 * pikhq_ looks at C1X's additions
05:57:39 <pikhq_> "Type-generic expressions using the _Generic keyword."
05:57:40 <pikhq_> Huh.
05:58:16 <coppro> pikhq_: Are you familiar with tgmath.h?
05:58:28 <pikhq_> BOUNDS CHECKING
06:00:44 -!- TeruFSX has quit (Read error: No route to host).
06:02:07 <elliott> tgmath.h is fun
06:08:21 <zzo38> I think, it should be invented, a new kind, not called C (because C is already called C), instead it can be called C?? or something like that, which is mostly C89 but also a few more things, such as #meta...#endmeta block where you can write interpreted C codes and compile-time error catching, and closer control to the machine-codes.
06:08:54 <zzo38> And then you can also have Objective-C++?? in case some people want that instead... but I don't think so.
06:09:22 <pikhq_> God, why is Objective-C++ a real thing?
06:09:38 <zzo38> It is a real thing, I am not sure who uses or wants it.
06:10:06 <pikhq_> Well, it has a single legitimate use.
06:10:13 <pikhq_> Binding C++ and Objective-C code.
06:10:19 <elliott> C?? xD
06:10:27 <pikhq_> Without going through C.
06:10:49 <elliott> pikhq_: you can actually do everything objective-c does in pure C++
06:10:54 <elliott> because it's all objc_msgSend or whatever
06:10:55 <elliott> under the hood
06:10:58 <elliott> so you can just call them directly
06:11:08 <pikhq_> elliott: Yeah, it's just somewhat more annoying.
06:11:12 <elliott> somewhat :D
06:11:23 <zzo38> elliott: Or something else; it doesn't have to be C?? maybe there is better name, but C and C++ is already taken
06:11:30 <pikhq_> Not that having two seperate object systems is going to be anything *but* annoying.

13:14:45 <ajf> nope.avi
13:14:56 <ajf> you just took c
13:14:57 <wareya> imagine a subset of C that is below even assembly in some manners but above C in others
13:15:00 <ajf> changed the syntax a little
13:15:03 <ajf> and made it 2d
13:15:06 <wareya> >changed the syntax
13:15:13 <wareya> nigger my langauge does not even have TYPES
13:15:24 <ajf> cool story bro
13:15:35 <wareya> it is literally the lowest you can get while having a sane structured language
13:15:37 <ajf> also did you write a compiler and/or interpreter yet
13:15:42 <wareya> yes
13:15:45 <wareya> it's not built off C
13:15:52 <wareya> it's built off the concepts that went into C
13:15:54 <ajf> python? perl? C#?
13:15:59 <ajf> oic
13:16:16 <ajf> no I mean what language did you write the interperter in
13:16:23 <wareya> 09:16 < wareya> yes
13:16:29 <wareya> oh

13:16:47 <ajf> :V
13:16:49 <wareya> I wrote it in GML

13:16:53 <ajf> >GML
13:16:55 <ajf> lopl
13:17:18 <ajf> also I made a devperc interactive mode in devperc
13:17:27 <ajf> because uh
13:17:38 <ajf> you can redefine what a letter represents
13:17:42 <wareya> lol
13:17:42 <ajf> so you can take input
13:17:44 <ajf> then do
13:17:53 <ajf> ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
13:18:08 <ajf> and you get a valid result.

13:20:47 <wareya> you can't beat that

13:21:00 <ajf> like

13:23:12 <wareya> moreso than 2d + expression nesting
13:23:29 <ajf> also
13:23:33 <ajf> does boat wrap?
13:23:38 <wareya> yes
13:23:42 <ajf> Good.
13:23:45 <wareya> except
13:23:52 <wareya> it wraps to the adjecant line
13:23:55 <wareya> :smiley16:
13:24:02 <ajf> Does it have hats and nine classes?
13:24:15 <wareya> Nope, but it has ten classes and party gibs.
13:24:21 <ajf> AWESOME
13:24:42 <ajf> My language only has one type
13:24:47 <ajf> 8-bit integer
13:24:51 <wareya> my language doesn't knwo what a type is
13:25:00 <wareya> everything is an integer with arbitrary length
13:25:06 <ajf> you mean
13:25:11 <ajf> everything is a binary blob
13:26:01 <wareya> I don't even know
13:26:29 <wareya> the best thing about my language is how you can have negative-sized variables
13:26:31 <wareya> in my opinion
13:26:32 <wareya> afk sleep
13:26:40 <ajf> how the fuck does that work
13:26:46 <wareya> :hehe16:
13:26:57 <ajf> k
13:27:48 <Zwaarddijk> does sound like you're either being nonsensical or busing terminology
13:27:57 <wareya> okay so
13:28:06 <wareya> if the memory from 0x0 looks like
13:28:16 <wareya> 61 a9 1b 83
13:28:31 <wareya> and you allocate a -2 byte sized variable at 0x2
13:28:37 <wareya> it would hold a9 61
13:28:45 <ajf> Thought so.
13:28:46 <ajf> Cool.
13:29:02 <variable> wareya: that sounds interesting
13:29:26 <Zwaarddijk> wareya: wht use does a -2 byte sized variable have?
13:29:34 <wareya> Abuse.
13:29:44 <ajf> this is true
13:29:51 <ajf> my language is all about abuse
13:29:55 <wareya> There are negative sized arrays that work the same way
13:29:56 <ajf> a program can rewrite itself

14:53:34 <Phantom_Hoover> OK I have discovered the Most Ridiculous Time Signature.
14:53:40 <Phantom_Hoover> ajf, I'll email graue.
14:55:00 <ajf> good.
14:55:11 <ajf> And what is the most ridiculous time signature?
14:57:19 <Phantom_Hoover> 13/8
14:58:15 <ajf> lol

19:08:47 <Vorpal> Sporadic keyboard lag under linux, as an effect of running windows update in a VM. Fuck all desktop OS. A RTOS would NEVER had done that to me.
19:09:54 <Phantom_Hoover> In other news, I have somehow gotten involved in yet another of RationalWiki's perennial dramas.
19:10:13 <Phantom_Hoover> Dunno why, I see nothing there worth fighting for any more.
19:10:33 <Vorpal> Phantom_Hoover, just leave then?
19:10:47 <Phantom_Hoover> I effectively have, it's just oddly compelling.
19:11:08 <Vorpal> Phantom_Hoover, perhaps you just like arguing for the sake of arguing?
19:11:28 <Vorpal> okay that was weird.... nwn crashed while saving. On loading that save, it seems okay except I gained a 46 levels, and I got multiple feats that my class can't even have. Lucky I have the habit of saving to a new file every time instead of overwriting.
19:12:28 <Vorpal> btw, I don't know what it says about minecraft, that nwn is perfectly playable on this computer on mid-graphics settings, while minecraft lags badly unless on tiny
19:12:50 <olsner> isn't nwn like 10 years old?
19:13:04 <Vorpal> more like 7-8 I think
19:13:16 <Vorpal> olsner, anyway it has way more flashy effects than minecraft
19:13:30 <Vorpal> anyway: fuck intel graphics

19:29:26 <ajf> again
19:29:44 <ajf> a challenge to all of you
19:29:53 <ajf> compile this language. It's impossible.

19:39:23 * Sgeo wants to make a language where writing a language interpreter means you've also written a compiler
19:39:41 <Sgeo> I think I just distorted a previous, more realistic idea of mine
19:40:35 <cheater93> which was?
19:40:50 <ajf> Sgeo: OK
19:40:54 <pikhq> Vorpal: Well, the -rt tree is slowly but surely getting merged.
19:40:54 <ajf> hmm
19:41:01 <cheater93> Sgeo, ?
19:41:05 <Sgeo> cheater93, I don't remember exactly
19:41:05 <pikhq> Vorpal: So, eventually Linux *will be* a RTOS.
19:41:15 <cheater93> Sgeo, then tell me approximately.
19:41:36 <ais523> gah these spambots are persistent
19:41:47 <Sgeo> It involed me writing a self-hosting language, then hiding a lot of the details in a Trusting-Trust way
19:41:48 <monqy> are they still inane
19:42:01 <cheater93> Sgeo, lol
19:42:06 <Phantom_Hoover> * Sgeo wants to make a language where writing a language interpreter means you've also written a compiler
19:42:10 <Phantom_Hoover> See: specialisers.
19:42:23 <cheater93> ais523, make people give you their stackoverflow login name before they log in.
19:42:24 <cheater93> or something.
19:42:26 <Vorpal> <pikhq> Vorpal: Well, the -rt tree is slowly but surely getting merged. <-- uh?
19:42:26 <Sgeo> huh?
19:42:33 <Vorpal> pikhq, will it help for intel graphics?
19:42:39 <Vorpal> oh wait you mean real time
19:42:39 <cheater93> ok, i'll bbs
19:42:40 <Vorpal> right
19:42:52 -!- cheater93 has quit (Quit: Leaving).
19:43:03 <Vorpal> pikhq, and yes that wounds good. But will it be hard realtime=
19:43:07 <Vorpal> s/=/?/
19:43:49 <monqy> "Real brain power on display. Thnaks for that answer!" words of wisdom
19:44:15 <ais523> are the spelling errors consistent? or does the spambot do random typos to prevent pattern matching?
19:44:57 <Vorpal> ais523, hi btw
19:45:01 <ais523> hi Vorpal
19:45:32 <pikhq> Pretty sure it's soft realtime.
19:46:16 <pikhq> The main thing it does is make the kernel always preëmptible.
19:47:01 <monqy> none of these spam messages look consistent :(
19:47:06 <Vorpal> pikhq, right, so not really what I want
19:47:18 <monqy> are any of them duplicates at all
19:47:24 <Vorpal> pikhq, keyboard input not lagging = hard realtime requirement to me
19:47:30 <ais523> they used to have consistently one-word edit summaries that mixed lowercase and capitals
19:47:37 <ais523> but they've even deviated from that pattern now
19:47:43 <Vorpal> however that implies X11 being hard realtime
19:47:48 <Vorpal> which is improbable
19:47:55 <Vorpal> utterly improbable
19:47:56 <pikhq> Vorpal: Actually, no, that's definitely soft realtime.
19:48:18 <monqy> deleting sections to thank and praise everyone inanely is pretty nifty
19:48:20 <monqy> but I don't see the point
19:48:23 <pikhq> Vorpal: Missing a deadline is not a complete and utter failure, it's a degradation in system usefulness.
19:48:29 <Vorpal> pikhq, well, depends on the system. If I say a keystrike must show up within n ms on the screen from me hitting the key
19:48:33 <Vorpal> then it would be hard realtime
19:48:48 <monqy> these misspellings are brilliant too
19:49:06 <pikhq> Also, linux-rt makes it so that *interactivity* latencies are straight-up going to happen, as far as I can tell.
19:49:23 <pikhq> Humans suck at noticing latency below something like 20-100ms.
19:49:29 <Vorpal> pikhq, it could be if the missed deadline meant that the nuclear reactor controlling app didn't get the keystroke :P
19:49:34 <Vorpal> err, keystrike?
19:49:36 <Vorpal> whatever
19:50:02 <pikhq> Well, if you're doing that you are probably wanting hard real-time guarantees down to the clock cycle.
19:50:21 <Vorpal> indeed
19:50:54 <Vorpal> pikhq, that is hard to get without dropping superscalarity, caches, anything more than the most basic pipeline, and so on
19:51:36 <pikhq> Hard realtime is just something you're not going to get on commodity hardware.
19:51:53 <pikhq> Unless, of course, you design such that you ignore pretty much all of it.
19:51:59 <pikhq> Say, making the entire program fit in cache. :P
19:52:48 <Vorpal> hah
19:53:23 <Vorpal> pikhq, or you can calculate on worst case. Like. pipeline stall on every instruction, cache miss all the time
19:54:15 <pikhq> Well, yes.
19:59:46 <zzo38> If you think 13/8 is most ridiculous time signature, then also try writing a music with 13/7 time signature to see what happen
20:00:12 <Vorpal> why would I think 13/8 is the most ridiculous
20:00:15 -!- variable has quit (Quit: smacking starcoder).
20:00:21 <Vorpal> surely 17824/12384 is way worse for example
20:00:35 <Vorpal> or 1878465.512/pi
20:00:43 <Vorpal> (is that even possible?)
20:00:52 -!- variable has joined.
20:01:31 <pikhq> I'm afraid that time signatures have to be rational.
20:01:32 -!- calamari has joined.
20:02:02 <Vorpal> pikhq, argh
20:03:05 <zzo38> As far as I know also the denominator must be a power of two (so 13/7 isn't correct)
20:03:25 <pikhq> zzo38: No, no reason for it to be a power of two.
20:06:52 <zzo38> But as far as I know it always is. Although, you could make it that it isn't

20:15:51 <elliott> I've just received the laziest yet
20:18:54 <ais523> elliott: what was it?
20:19:18 <ais523> I know viral scams have been spotted, which aim at people who are currently being scammed and persuade them to send the money somewhere else
20:19:21 <ais523> which is kind-of clever, actually
