16:45:00 <TieSoul> Has someone made a Befunge variant similar to Brainloller?
16:45:12 <TieSoul> Because I want to try and create something like that
16:45:34 <TieSoul> http://esolangs.org/wiki/Brainloller
16:48:16 <fizzie> Category:Non-textual should contain it, if it's been categorized correctly.
16:48:33 <TieSoul> Thanks
16:48:46 <fizzie> There are a couple of other image-based things (Piet, of course) but I don't think I've heard of a specifically Befunge-y one.
16:49:46 <TieSoul> I'm thinking of having instructions be based on the sum of the RGB values of every pixel
16:50:28 <TieSoul> so that you can actually have art-like programs
16:50:40 <TieSoul> instead of fixed colors
16:51:35 <fizzie> Piet is based on relative changes in hue/lightness, so you can sort-of have artistic stuff, you just have to be careful about it. (Of course strict Piet has quite a limited palette, too.)
16:51:53 <fizzie> I did that http://www.mezzacotta.net/garfield/?comic=559 thing with it.
16:51:54 <b_jonas> TieSoul: so you want some sort of image steganography?
16:52:24 <TieSoul> Sort of
16:52:51 <TieSoul> I mean, it'd be possible to have image steganography that way.
16:52:58 <HackEgo> [wiki] [[SYCPOL]] M http://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=40018&oldid=40016 * GermanyBoy * (+3) /* Computer architecture */ less repetition
16:53:00 <TieSoul> But it wouldn't be easy
16:53:52 <FireFly> You could base instructions on only the least significant bits of each channel
16:54:50 <TieSoul> That sounds really good actually
16:55:19 <TieSoul> although only 8 possible instructions could be made with that
16:55:30 <TieSoul> so least significant base-10 digit?
16:57:52 <TieSoul> Least significant base-10 digit of every channel sounds pretty good actually
16:58:20 <fizzie> If you only want the steganography thing without considering elegance or some-such, it's always possible to go with, say, least significant bits of 2x2 pixel cells; that's already 12 bits of data.
16:59:09 <TieSoul> hrm
17:01:09 <TieSoul> Maybe (value % 7) for every channel? That'd make ASCII stringmode possible since there are 256 ASCII characters (right?) and 7 ** 3 == 343
17:01:27 <TieSoul> but that'd be the minimum for ascii stringmode
17:01:54 <TieSoul> It would also be annoying to program in
17:02:34 <TieSoul> oh no wait
17:02:40 <TieSoul> no wait
17:02:42 <TieSoul> never mind
17:04:58 -!- MDream has changed nick to MDude.
17:04:59 <fizzie> Bike: zzo38: #perl explains that it boils down to $], which is an (old) special-variable for the version number; it's treating the 's in ['x'] as package separators (single quote is an old-fashioned replacement for Perl's ::) and then the package is essentially ignored for special variables, a misfeature corrected in v5.14,
17:05:29 -!- conehead has joined.
17:11:41 <TieSoul> okay, well, a base 7 image-based Befunge derivative sounds pretty cool :P
17:12:06 <zzo38> I have read about $] before. I think $] and those other special-variables are sensible features, although ' isn't and those other things doesn't make much sense to me

17:25:01 -!- Tritonio has joined.
17:26:58 <fizzie> zzo38: $[ can (or could) be used to set the index of the first element of an array to something else than 0.
17:27:21 <FireFly> that eerily reminds me of APL's index offset variable
17:27:50 <zzo38> BASIC has OPTION BASE which does a similar thing
17:27:57 <fizzie> $[ = 1; # look I'm just like awk
17:28:38 <zzo38> But I think it is only for the variables declared after OPTION BASE and you can still specify explicitly each one anyways, in which case OPTION BASE is ignored.
17:30:22 <fizzie> The Perl $[ = 1; is also kind of weird, because it's recognized at compile time. (And the assigned value needs to be constant.)
17:32:04 <zzo38> Yes that does make it weird, although it does mean you can read $[ if you need to, I suppose (if it allow you). BASIC's OPTION BASE also is at compile time and need to be a constant, if you are making a compiled BASIC program.

22:31:19 <oerjan> hah i guessed düsseldorf correctly
22:31:34 <oerjan> I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE
22:32:02 <Melvar> Only to such precision as an IP lookup would have told you, IIUC.
22:32:58 <oerjan> that was from the EDDL, not your ip hth
22:33:38 <Melvar> Yes, I’m just saying that the former is no more precise an indicator of where I live than the latter.
22:34:37 <oerjan> how unsporting
22:37:43 * boily goes getting himself passportly photographied
22:39:51 <oerjan> i think my passport expired this spring, i should renew it some time. of course i didn't actually _use_ it since i last renewed it 10 years ago.
22:40:42 <oerjan> also i would have to find where the old passport ended up after the move.

22:44:53 <zzo38> I do not understand a METAR code very well, unfortunately
22:48:58 <zzo38> I have a VCR/DVD with drive select, but it will not display the channel on the front display unless the VHS mode is selected (although it can still receive channels in any mode: VHS, DVD, SD, and USB)
22:50:07 <zzo38> So, I keep it on VHS when not using other modes, due to that. I don't know why it does that, but, that is how it does

23:13:21 <adu> // sounds like an abstract replacement engine
23:13:31 <oerjan> it is
23:13:57 <adu> my favorite is Funge-98
23:14:05 <oerjan> the interesting thing is that it manages to be turing complete despite being so minimal
23:14:32 <adu> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfram%27s_2-state_3-symbol_Turing_machine
23:14:43 <adu> is also minimal, but it's not very nice to program in
23:15:08 <oerjan> indeed. it also requires infinite setup which is somewhat dubious.
23:15:19 <adu> lolol
23:16:04 <oerjan> Alex Smith is a channel regular btw, but not here at the moment.
23:18:27 <oerjan> fungot: you can discuss funge-98 with adu
23:18:27 <fungot> oerjan: eval ( let ( ( a b). so much crap to pick up... it doesn't really matter what the purpose of the language.
23:18:51 <zzo38> fizzie: Thank you for information
23:19:06 <oerjan> fungot: i'm not sure you're thinking of the right language here. i'm referring to the one you are written in.
23:19:06 <fungot> oerjan: people have a hard to find, fix, as in first in any kind of technology, just for future reference, you should
23:19:20 <zzo38> Yes it seem to me, the temperature is as hot as 25, but the temperature is not reaching the basement, so, it is OK in basement.
23:20:53 <adu> hi fungot
23:20:53 <fungot> adu: so, basically check the websites for every implementation for the hack value counts for something, and submit it as a lambda
23:21:15 <adu> can you explain "hack value counts"?

23:32:24 <FireFly> well, fungot, can you?
23:32:24 <fungot> FireFly: if () is false. this means, if azeroth really is a triple ( interface, set of loops, etc, although it does duplicate work in a machine learning course and reading the book
23:32:43 <oerjan> that makes it perfectly clear.
23:32:50 <FireFly> Inded
23:32:52 <FireFly> Indeed*
23:33:02 <adu> hmm
23:33:09 <adu> me thinks it's not explainable
23:33:47 <shachaf> fungot: can you explain "that makes it perfectly clear"?
23:33:47 <fungot> shachaf: the sse extensions are fnord.
23:33:51 <adu> oerjan: lolol
23:34:02 <shachaf> fungot: that they are.

23:34:25 <fungot> adu: not exactly something like that. but even real scheme :p.
23:35:55 <boily> fungot is fungot. there's one fungot, and then you stop counting because that's all the fungot there is.
23:35:55 <fungot> boily: i'm not talking about quality of sound here), and then at the moment
23:36:04 <oerjan> yep high on scheme sounds about right

23:36:19 <FireFly> I hope I got the formatting right
23:36:29 <oerjan> looks good to me.
23:36:37 <boily> don't worry, I'll be reformatting it in no time :D
23:37:20 <shachaf> fungot: say something hard to format
23:37:20 <fungot> shachaf: unless you're using the db for data storage.
23:37:35 <FireFly> formatting a database is hard?
23:37:47 <shachaf> fungot: that's an unusual use of the db.
23:37:47 <fungot> shachaf: wait a sec... busy in another channel
23:37:58 <shachaf> fungot: ok
23:37:58 <fungot> shachaf: i'm a zealot for not defining that semantics. but code using haskell's state monads state, io, etc
23:38:24 <adu> omg, I literally rolled on the floor, laughing out loud! roflol
23:38:55 <FireFly> fungot: are you trapped in a monad?

23:38:55 <boily> adu: ♪ding♪ you exist in the Wisdom PDF!
23:39:15 <adu> boily: do you mean the Adobe kind?
23:39:27 <FireFly> The linked-in-topic kind

23:40:11 <HackEgo> 1127) <boily> everything is either zipf, branford, poisson, gamma, or uniform. outside of that, it's a weird curve invented by sadistic statistics teachers.
23:40:18 <boily> adu: I guess both.
23:40:42 <adu> boily: that is so esoteric
23:41:21 <fizzie> boily: I went and lookeded things up, and it was suggested that TR was for "traces" (less than FEW but more than CLR) of the related cloud type.
23:41:39 <adu> TR?
23:42:27 <boily> TR.
23:42:39 <boily> say, what are your approximate coördinates and body weigh?
23:43:02 <adu> boily: OK, KYPO, IMGTBAR, JK
23:43:09 <fizzie> And I got the feeling that "density altitude" is basically air density at the airport, denoted as some nominal altitude from sea level in a model.

23:44:48 <adu> I don't know my body weight, because I eat and poop, it's never the same
23:45:00 <boily> fizzie: it's something to do with air pressure indeed, but it looks like it's only a useful intermediate number for further calculations.
23:45:22 <fizzie> "the altitude relative to the standard atmosphere conditions (ISA) at which the air density would be equal to the indicated air density at the place of observation".
23:45:44 <fizzie> I was going almost solely on that.
23:45:51 <boily> something that confuses me to no end.
23:47:16 -!- adu has quit (Quit: adu).
23:47:30 <fizzie> It's a convoluted sentence; I'd've written it the other way around. ("Air density at the place of observation indicated by the corresponding altitude in terms of the ISA model that has the same air density.")
23:48:06 <boily> oh. much clearer.
