So "central heating" in English refers to a different and much broader concept than in Hungarian? What's WRONG with the English language? 21:22:05 what does it mean in Hungarian? 21:22:12 Apparently in English, "central heating" means any form of heating the interior of a building that doesn't have separate heat generators per room. 21:22:18 in English it refers to a system in which there's a house-wide system for heating, as opposed to having a separate heater in each room 21:22:57 this is almost always accomplished via the use of a centralised hot water boiler + radiators that radiate the heat from the water into the room 21:23:20 In Hungarian, "központi fűtés" only refers to a subset, namely heating buildings where multiple houses are heated by a hot water generator as a communal city infrastructure service. 21:23:45 oh, I don't think we even need a word for that in English, it's very rarely used here 21:24:07 I'd argue that translating that into "central heating" is misleading 21:24:45 Which is cheaper in theory than other forms of heating (definitely cheaper if you live near a power plant), and has less maintenance problems, but also offers less control for the individual apartment owners, because they still have to pay when they don't want to heat their apartment. 21:25:23 ais523: even in big cities, or in cities near big power plants? 21:26:10 I live in the biggest city in the UK (second-biggest if you consider the whole of London a city; for weird historical reasons only a very small proportion is) 21:26:14 we don't have anything like that here 21:27:05 ok 21:28:53 it makes sense, I guess it's just that people in the UK don't like living near power plants, and many of our power plants aren't suitable for combined-heat-and-power anyway 21:29:28 -!- augur has joined. 21:29:36 So it's not just one of the places where communal heating is impractical because houses are spread too far apart, or because the climate is so warm that people rarely need heating even in the winter, or because oil is so cheap that people leave the engine of old fuel-hog buses on all night because the engine has a bit of trouble starting up. 21:30:58 ais523: the power plant is the rare case, most people in Budapest don't get heating from them, but the one special case of Paks where everyone has their house heated to too hot and aren't allowed to set the radiators to cooler because the power plant needs cooling should count. 21:31:32 in the UK it's usual to see steam towers when factories or power plants need cooling 21:31:47 high chimneys which let hot steam into the atmosphere, it cools quickly because it's a gas 21:31:50 and we have plenty of water here 21:32:43 ais523: wob_jonas: The Finnish literal translation of "central heating" (keskuslämmitys) means what the Hungarian term means, and it's also almost ubiquitous in cities. 21:32:45 Well sure, it's not an accident that the biggest power plant of the country, in Paks, is next to the Danube. 21:33:43 Luckily I've never lived in a place that has communal heating. 21:33:57 I think building a CHP system in the UK would be unlikely nowadays because new power plants are normally nuclear (and people are unwilling to want cooling water from a nuclear power station in their radiators), or wind/tidal (which can't be used for CHP) 21:34:35 The two apartments where I lived with my parents were really cold, and both had a one per apartment water boiler standing radiator (no floor heating) central heating. 21:35:18 The apartment where I live now is much warmer even if I don't turn any heating on, because unlike the previous ones, it's heated by the apartment under and the others around it, and also has better insulation. 21:35:50 ais523: wob_jonas: Actually, sorry -- misremembered. In fact "keskuslämmitys" means something closer to central heating, and "kaukolämpö" (lit. "far heat") means the other one. 21:36:14 Also I thought "district heating" was the English word? 21:36:20 I haven't had to turn on heating yet, I'll turn it on the first time I feel cold any early morning in the bed under the thick down (feather) duvet with all windows closed. 21:36:33 "District heating (also known as heat networks or teleheating) is a system for distributing heat generated in a centralized location for residential and commercial heating requirements such as space heating and water heating. The heat is often obtained from a cogeneration plant burning fossil fuels but increasingly also biomass, although heat-only boiler stations, geothermal heating, heat pumps and 21:36:39 central solar heating are also used, as well as nuclear power." 21:36:40 fizzie: possibly; it's rare enough that I don't know what the word is 21:36:40 fizzie: I don't know the English words for all this. 21:37:12 I believe there's some of this in London. 21:37:12 Yes, that's correct, it also provides water heating as a side effect. 21:37:19 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_heating#United_Kingdom 21:38:03 Oh, and this apartment has two per-room enclosed burning space municipal gas heaters as the main heating source. 21:38:47 And, yeah, it's pretty popular where I came from: "In Finland district heating accounts for about 50% of the total heating market, 80% of which is produced by combined heat and power plants. Over 90% of apartment blocks, more than half of all terraced houses, and the bulk of public buildings and business premises are connected to a district heating network." 21:38:56 I think the majority of houses over here use a gas boiler for heating 21:39:17 ais523: That's my impression as well, from coworker talk. 21:39:35 electric heaters are common if you only want to heat one room, or want heat only rarely 21:39:43 This apartment is all-electric, which I think is considered a little uncommon. 21:40:12 yes, not unheard of but rare 21:40:13 Feels like it costs a lot, though the only point of reference I have is our apartment in Finland. 21:40:24 ais523: gas boiler still accounts for multiple heating systems. it can be per apartment, or a central one for a small building with the water boiler in a scary damp cellar to scare children with, or district heating; and it can use ordinary wall-mounted radiators or floor heating pipes. 21:40:52 gas is much more efficient at heating than electricity is; many power plants are gas-fired anyway, and burning the gas in your home means you get all the energy from the gas as heat, as opposed to using electricity where much of the energy was lost at the power plant 21:41:08 (the exception is if the electricity comes from a renewable source but the UK is nowhere near 100% renewable yet) 21:41:35 wob_jonas: right, the details can vary a lot 21:41:51 fizzie: I hear all electric is common in Sweden because they have cheaper electricity, and small towns with too thin and cold soil so it's difficult to maintain pipes for municipal gas. 21:42:23 ais523: renewable source doesn't imply that it's efficient, but sure 21:42:24 the heating system in this house was changed a couple of years ago to use a different sort of centralised boiler, the old one was much larger than the current standard and built into the walls 21:42:41 in general gas heating is more efficient, but there are all sorts of details that can make it hard to use 21:42:42 the old one used a chimney, the new one just has a vent through the nearest wall (but is self-contained) 21:43:01 There's also an electric "immersion heater" in here, which runs once a day to heat up a bunch of water. It feels really odd to have all this infrastructure invidiually per-apartment, in an apartment building. Back in Finland it was all invisible, somewhere in the building basement. 21:43:47 we used to have an immersion heater which we never used, that was changed in the refit though 21:43:56 also if you have gas heating, there's the overly bureaucratic chimney maintenance service which is supposed to be taking care of people's safety, especially against carbon monoxide poisoning, but actually just keep inventing frequently changing random rules to screw with people. 21:44:01 Oh, and an electric shower. I don't think I've ever seen one in Finland. 21:44:21 it's very common to have a batch water heating system here, with a hot water tank that's re-heated once or twice a day 21:44:26 The rules change more frequently than the normal lifetime of any sort of heating appliance. 21:44:28 normally you have controls to set the exact schedule 21:44:47 wob_jonas: in the UK it's strongly recommended that you fit a carbon monoxide alarm but there are no rules actually requiring it 21:44:50 You don't have any of that trouble with district heating in Budapest 21:44:55 that I'm aware of, at least 21:45:04 ais523: sure, but that's not enough 21:45:21 (An "electric shower" is a thing that's connected to a cold water supply, and it heats water up on-demand as it's used.) 21:46:02 fizzie: right, those are very common in the UK, even in houses which otherwise use gas heating 21:46:13 although mixer showers that work by mixing hot and cold water are also common 21:46:29 the problem with using the regular hot water supply for a shower is that it has a tendency to run out when you're using a batch water heater 21:46:33 so not everyone in the house can have a hot shower 21:46:49 mix taps are completely standard here 21:46:55 usually with only one control 21:46:58 Even for this apartment they manage to keep complaining about something, not about the room heating because the enclosed space heaters are simple and can't cause any trouble, but about the small boiler for hot water generation. 21:47:26 Ours is a very basic model, so you only have three heating settings (cold, one heater, two heaters) and you do the temperature control by adjusting the water flow. Makes for a really sad excuse of a shower, but at least it never runs out. 21:47:43 fizzie: ouch 21:48:08 right, I hear the UK has this strange system where they often haven't invented a simple water mixer that we have in almost every tap here, except for a few cold water only taps 21:48:43 wob_jonas: those were illegal for a long time, IIRC there was some sort of issue with contamination of the mains 21:49:28 there's such a thing as a "kitchen mixer tap" which mixes hot and cold water but only after it's already come out of the tap 21:49:33 even restaurant taps that are set to hot water only with no way for the user to adjust, to make people buy more drinks, are mix taps, only with a screw from the mix tap removed by the owner so that the users can't grip it 21:49:33 by dropping them near each other 21:49:37 in order to avoid that sort of problem 21:49:50 wob_jonas: huh, how does that work? 21:50:03 as in, why would hotter water make you buy more drinks? 21:50:29 ais523: yes, that's strange. I've seen such two tap systems even in Hungary, but only like twenty years ago in old dorm buildings inside rooms or something, not in reasonable places 21:51:11 ais523: the guests use the warm water to wash your hand in the bathroom, but don't drink it because it's too warm for their tastes (when people drink water, they usually prefer cold or room temperature water) 21:51:28 -!- imode has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 21:51:29 so they instead buy drinks from the restaurant or pub in glasses or bottles or whatever 21:51:32 oh, I see, I didn't realise anyone would drink water from the bathroom taps 21:51:48 in the UK, anywhere which sells alcohol has to give everyone (cold/mains) tap water for free on request 21:52:09 ais523: wait, they have that strange thing in the UK too? I hear the US has an issue where people don't want to drink from taps, and have separate water fountains or something 21:52:26 ais523: sure, in theory restaurants have to serve tap water in a glass 21:52:34 it's just really inconvenient to drink from a tap directly 21:52:42 and people aren't really supposed to bring their own glasses 21:52:43 but sometimes they don't do that, or interpret your order of water as non-tap water and charge from it, or something 21:52:54 right, you have to be very clear to say "tap water" 21:53:15 if you just say "water" a typical restaurant will serve you something much more expensive in the hope of making a profit 21:53:17 and even without that, once they have to order, they might order other drinks 21:53:48 also, this happens the most often in restaurants that already want to gain profit from tourists or clueless people 21:55:10 ais523: most people drink using their two hands, but they also wash their face at sinks with taps with their two hands, which is something I could never really figure out. I'm in the minority who drink by directly holding my mouth under a tap, and wash my face by holding my face under the tap, or sometimes drink using a soft drink bottle. 21:55:51 that's a weird tap design, it's hard to fit your face under the tap with a typical sink 21:56:01 I am also willing to drink warmer water in those kinds of skiing restaurants than most other people, I only refuse to drink when the water is so hot it already hurts for washing your hands. 21:56:02 in fact, some sinks I've had problems even just fitting my hands there :-( 21:56:16 ais523: yes, some taps make it hard. that's what coke bottles are for. 21:57:29 ideally either modern thin mineral water bottles that you can fold if they don't fit under, or a half-liter mineral water bottle that fits slanted under most taps (in most places the faucet is also not fixed too strongly to the sink so I rotate it a bit even though I'm not supposed to). 22:00:50 Drinking from a bottle can be unhygienic, yet I still do it a lot. 22:01:01 I'm not supposed to, but it's simple. 22:03:44 Anyway, I don't understand how people even take showers without a mixing tap. Washing up is possible without, using the more water efficient technique of filling a sink with water, which people here always do when there's a lot to wash up at the same time. 22:04:16 it's common to do that here too, except for rinsing 22:04:25 you have a bowl of hot water for washing, then rinse under the tap once you're done 22:04:46 Sure, I've heard of all the inconvenient cleaning methods people used up to like twenty years ago, before basically every apartment started to have a bathroom with shower or bathtub as a standard component, but still. 22:05:46 Nobody but very poor people lack a shower of some form or bathtub these days. 22:06:22 -!- EvilJS has changed nick to iovoid. 22:07:31 And all showers have a mixing tap, because the bathrooms already have to have hot water, and throwing in a mixing tap is simple enough on that, simpler than having a separate hot water and cold water tap. 22:09:31 (There's one difference. Showers in individual home bathrooms typically have a shower head on a flexible tube; communal showers usually have a shower head in a fixed high position on a rigid tube instead. This is because the flexible tube often gets leaky and has to be replaced once every few years, but is cheap to replace.) 22:11:25 My other grandmother, who died over twenty years ago, actually lived in a poor house without a shower or bathtub, so she had to wash her body from a bowl, but even there she had a mix tap with hot and cold water. 22:13:31 People don't use a mix tap for washing themselves only when either (a) they're in such poor housing conditions that not only they don't have a bathroom, but also no access to proper hot water, and have to boil water in a pot on a stove for washing themselves; or (b) it's a shower outdoors on a beach or similar with only cold water, used only in war 22:13:31 m temperatures. 22:15:41 The no mix tap thing seems a strange foreign practice to me, sort of like squat toilets. 22:17:07 I can admit that having taps with the controls placed in reverse can be a genuine cultural difference that's too stuck to reconcile after international travel got cheaper, sort of like driving on the left; and the same about upside down light switches, and ceiling light switches placed at waist height. 22:18:44 (Here most taps that have two separate dials for cold and hot water have the hot water dial on the left hand side, ones that have a single handle give hot water if you pull that to the left; you press pysical light switches on the top or pull them up to turn them on; and room light switches are at height.) 22:19:21 (These are arbitrary conventions, but they're useful at that if they're standard.) 22:19:40 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 22:21:25 -!- boily has joined. 22:22:23 Do you use electric showers in the UK? 22:23:55 -!- augur has joined. 22:24:30 shachaf: both electric and mixer showers are common 22:25:33 Do people at the UK at least have a tall enough tap in either the kitchen or the bathroom that you can fit your head below them? I hate not tall enough taps. How the heck are you supposed to remove foreign objects from your eyes? Everyone knows you must do that with running water whenever possible. 22:25:42 I mean just a cold water tap. 22:25:47 You don't need a mixing tap for that. 22:25:59 wob_jonas: normally you physically throw water into your eyes 22:26:10 sometimes described as "splashing" it 22:26:48 ais523: yes, but that doesn't really work. that's a workaround for when you don't have running water because you're not in a building. 22:27:09 I've never seen an electric shower but I heard they were common in the UK. 22:27:18 strange 22:27:28 I mean, if they have a shower, they can use that instead 22:27:31 or a bathroom tap 22:27:39 not perfect, but works 22:28:47 -!- augur has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds). 22:30:14 -!- moonytheawoo has changed nick to moonythedwarf. 22:30:20 Wwhy is it not perfect? 22:30:32 Really I've heard of the no mix tap thing in UK from descriptions, but I mostly forgot about it until now. I should really keep that in mind when I decide whether to work abroad and where. 22:31:23 wob_jonas: maybe about half the public toilets I use have mixer taps on the sinks, the other half use separate taps 22:31:58 shachaf: shower works well, but some showerheads are ridiclous, they spew water everywhere in a large area rather than concentrating them in a medium sized beam, so you'd get everything wet. For washing your eyes, you want the water to hit mostly a small area at the bridge of your nose. Tap at bathtub can work but can be harder to reach from outsid 22:31:58 e the bathtub. 22:32:10 wob_jonas: Oh, I thought you meant electric showers. 22:32:42 shachaf: why does electric matter? cold water works for washing your eyes (warm water also works, mind yuo) 22:33:04 shachaf: electric and mixer showers still have the showerhead (the bit that actually outputs the water) working the same way, the only difference is how the water is heated 22:33:08 Superheated water might have adverse side effects 22:33:10 ais523: I see. how about in private apartments? 22:33:21 I was only half-reading the conversation, I didn't see anything about showerheads. 22:33:34 wob_jonas: they're separate in my house, I don't go to a lot of other peoples' bathrooms though 22:33:43 yeah... 22:33:43 wob_jonas, most toilets I use have mixer taps, most kitchens don't 22:34:19 I don't know what kind of bathrooms people have in private apartments in Sweden either. I've only been to like four apartments, but all four are ones where Hungarians live. 22:34:42 Taneb: thanks 22:34:43 I've never been to Sweden or to my knowlege in a Hungarian's apartment 22:38:44 Totally different topic. I was thinking of trying to watch some other cartoon TV series franchise (besides MLP:FiM which I've been following for three seasons now). Top contender is Steven Universe, followed by Ben 10. Do you have any recommendation for or against them? 22:38:51 This one is hard because you'd have to know my preferences. 22:45:04 I also watched much of Phineas and Ferb and enjoyed it, plus most of the original Powerpuff Girls series. 22:50:31 if you're after kids'-tv-that-adults-like then adventure time seems to be widely loved 22:53:01 Phantom_Hoover: hmm 22:54:34 -!- augur has joined. 23:01:23 yeah... this channel is half European, so I should ask at a time that's not a bank holiday, and earlier in the day 23:01:35 is it a bank holiday in the US by the way? let me look that up 23:02:14 I don't think there are bank holidays in the US. 23:02:33 yep, holiday in US and UK too (but not in Sweden or Norway) 23:02:45 whoa, today's a holiday in the US? 23:03:25 shachaf: today as in --11-01. it's --11-02 now here 23:04:19 What holiday? 23:04:34 nope, sorry, not a public (bank) holiday in the US apparently 23:04:52 Anyway the US doesn't really have official holidays. 23:04:58 nor in the UK 23:05:11 shachaf: how do people know when shops and offices are closed then? 23:05:45 such shops and offices that are normally closed on sundays that is 23:07:59 but it is a holiday in Hungary and some of the neighboring countries 23:08:44 There are conventions. 23:09:01 The federal government has a holiday schedule and I guess most people use those. 23:09:20 And maybe add some others or remove some. 23:09:35 shachaf: doesn't that make them public holidays? 23:13:26 Does it? 23:13:43 -!- brandonson has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 23:13:56 dunno 23:14:46 when does us daylight savings time end btw 23:15:00 This Sunday. 23:15:37 Phantom_Hoover: 2017-11-05 in most places 23:15:47 i see 23:15:48 a few don't use daylight saving time adjustments 23:16:38 That's true. 23:16:43 I wish everyone got rid of DST. 23:16:48 and apparently they don't adjust their tz offset at the same time, but at the same local time around the country. weird. 23:16:55 Maybe I should move to Arizona. 23:17:50 in the half of Europe that does do DST adjustments, they do it at the same time 23:18:57 -!- augur has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 23:19:17 always at 01:00 UTC, regardless of whether their winter timezone offset is +0 or +1 or +2 23:19:29 the codebase i'm working on right now mixes local and utc times in ways i don't really understand 23:19:31 it's less than ideal 23:20:05 -!- AnotherTest has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 23:22:17 I was thinking at some point on what the best API would be for a datetime module that covers timezones and the gregorian calendar and all sorts of datetime calculations. Obviously this is subjective. I have a particular idea that I might try to implement as a wrapper some day. I quite like the perl Date::Manip module, but I'm thinking of an API mor 23:22:17 e suitable for a statically typed language, 23:22:40 and without the part where Date::Manip refuses to handle sub-second precision. 23:23:40 Maybe at first I should sketch the API as a patch to Date::Manip that adds more methods and depreciates a few existing ones in favor of the newer ones. 23:23:56 Because that interface is nice, but not perfect. 23:24:23 Nah, that probably wouldn't work. I'd have to change it to almost unrecognizable. 23:25:21 Dunno. 23:25:21 -!- augur has joined. 23:25:34 Phantom_Hoover: go on 23:25:59 Phantom_Hoover: is that code base written in Excel? Excel doesn't seem to understand about time zones. 23:26:03 no it's in kdb 23:26:16 whoa whoa whoa, you use kdb? 23:26:18 For what? 23:26:20 At least in older versions. They may have added stuff since. 23:26:23 which has different shortcuts for utc timestamp vs global timestamp 23:26:33 shachaf, market databases, what else :p 23:26:42 shachaf: yeah, that surprised me too 23:26:54 Is this for a job? 23:27:00 yes 23:27:09 What's the job? 23:27:10 apparently people use some modern APLs in finance, including kdb and dyalog. 23:27:41 shachaf, uh... kdb developer, basically 23:27:46 but it surprised me because I don't remember seeing Phantom_Hoover on the freenode #jsoftware channel where we talk about various APLs, not just the original topic J 23:27:58 I mean, what are you and/or your employer accomplishing? 23:28:50 Phantom_Hoover: you are hereby invited to #jsoftware, where you can find a few other people who use APLs for work 23:28:58 I emphatically don't do that, and don't want to do that either 23:29:22 Phantom_Hoover: hm, do you work for Kx or for some other company? 23:29:28 out of curiosity 23:29:38 i work for one of the irish kdb consultancies 23:29:43 ah 23:29:58 I was chatting with a guy from Kx at a meetup here a few months ago 23:30:04 which apparently accounts for an awful lot of kdb developers, half my team is irish 23:31:01 shachaf, the details are probably boring and i'm not sure they aren't sensitive, basically we pull price data from a few sources, clean it up and provide it to other teams downstream 23:31:25 -!- fungot has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 23:32:46 Ah. 23:32:58 -!- fungot has joined. 23:36:27 The thing about US and UK DST switchover differences is, about half of our reoccurring meetings shift by an hour for that one week, but it's completely arbitrary, since it depends on the time zone of whoever happens to be the nominal organizer of the meeting. 23:36:59 fizzie: ouch 23:37:11 I visited freenode live over the weekend, which was a pain because it meant three time shifts during one weekend (two for the flights back and forth, one for the DST change) 23:37:14 fizzie: do you also sometimes get meetings at the wrong date because you confuse date formats? 23:37:25 at least Sweden and UK both do the DST change simultaneously, so there's that 23:38:12 FireFly: exactly, that's what I said. the half of europe that does any DST changes at all change at the same time. in the US, the part that uses DST changes change multiple hours apart. 23:38:29 ah, nod 23:39:01 wob_jonas: I don't think that happens too much (Google Calendar is reasonably good about making dates non-ambiguous), although sometimes dates in other contexts (like emails or bugs) end up being confusing. 23:40:11 FireFly: Oh, you're Freenode staff, aren't you. 23:40:30 (The recurring time is not strictly speaking tied to the time zone of the nominal organizer -- it's a property of the event, but that's where the default comes from.) 23:40:31 yeaah 23:40:33 yeah* 23:40:42 so I helped organise the event too :P 23:41:11 shachaf: also someone hirefly'd a few months ago btw 23:41:40 (well. like 1½) 23:41:58 Don't I HireFly all the time? 23:41:59 Heh. If you set different time zones for the start and end times (which is apparently supported), the 'repeat' option is disabled: "A repeated event cannot start and end in different time zones". 23:42:02 `hi FireFly 23:42:02 Hi FireFly. HireFly. 23:42:33 I meant in the 'hire' sense more than the 'hi' sense 23:45:10 lol 23:45:31 What sort of HireFly? 23:46:50 There's apparently some proposal that UK should adopt BST all year round, and "double summertime" when it's usually DST (so effectively just switch to CET), and also there was a newspaper article just the other day where a sleep researcher recommended Finland to switch to CET too. 23:46:55 I think they should adopt both, since then there'd be no UK/Finland timezone difference to think about. 23:47:18 the uk went to BST year-round in like the 80s i think 23:47:50 only for a trial period and it got shouted down by the scots b/c they didn't like how dark it got on winter mornings 23:48:22 So I've heard.

Variable access and variable assignment uses an optional scope variable - if s is a scope, then you could do "s v = 3" to set v to 3 in that scope. The global scope, simply named 'global', contains every other scope, and is parented to itself. 'local' is a global reference (in the 'global' scope) to the current scope, and 'code' would be a global reference to an AST representation of the code 19:48:29 which is currently being executed. 19:49:30 Both 'local' and 'code' are in the 'global' scope - therefore, if you change the current scope to a scope which is not in the 'global' scope, you would not be able to access 'local' or 'code' by normal means (without having a reference to the 'global' scope in the scope you're in now). 19:51:57 Functions would also have access to an explicit continuation, and would have to call it to return. In effect, when you create a function, you're creating a custom continuation which gets the continuation of the invoker. 19:55:29 -!- LKoen has joined. 19:58:58 In other words, *every* call is a call/cc. 19:59:31 Or, rather, a jump/cc.

Basically, some clothes get more comfortable the more I wear them, because washing with a rinse agent makes the cotton softer. But when I choose what clothes to wear, I often choose the more comfortable ones. So there's a positive feedback loop for wearing older clothes, which eventually get rui 20:21:05 ned, without breaking in the newer clothes. 20:26:12 do what hermit crabs do. Steal broken in clothes from someone slightly weaker than you 20:28:57 doesthiswork: stealing clothes is not socially acceptible. the usual method is to buy clothes from people slightly *richer* from you, usually people notionally in the UK who just sell their warm winter clothes in the spring and sell their summer clothes in the autumn. 20:30:26 "Notially in the UK" means that every used clothes store that isn't selling clothes collected as charity is labeling them as "British used clothes" for the quality associated with that, just like how chocolate is labeled as "Belgian" or "Swiss" regardless of where it's made. 20:37:14 The british are known for the quality of their used clothes? 20:38:22 doesthiswork: they do know, since all non-charity-based used clothes stores started to label their clothes as UK 20:38:48 nobody knows where the used clothes really come from, or where Belgian and Swiss chocolate really comes from, but now they're stuck with that label 20:40:58 The charity shops have it easier, because all the big charities already use the names of big reputable organizations, and are now reputable as charities themselves too, namely the Red Cross charity, the Baptist charity org, the Maltese (as in Holy Order of Malta) charity org, and the Ecumenical charity org. 20:42:51 I don't see why reputation plays a large part in the used clothes market, because unlike chocolate you get to try it before you buy it. 20:44:38 let's combine the two ideas and open a used chocolate market 20:45:24 sounds great. Here in america we have rainbow foods which is a used food store 20:45:30 doesthiswork: well sure, but there's so many shops you're unlikely to go in every one and try each garment sold in them 20:46:24 perhaps I'm underestimating the density of used clothing shops in Britain 20:46:37 doesthiswork: um, these stores aren't in Britain 20:46:42 they're here in Hungary 20:47:23 of course if the clothes really were British, that would imply that Britain doesn't have many used clothes stores, it just exports all those used clothes to here 20:47:48 just like how western europe exports used cars to Hungary, then Hungary exports them to southern europe, then southern europe exports them to africa 20:47:52 or something of that sorts 20:48:10 I thought maybe the british had the attitude that every month deserves a fresh set of clothes 20:48:36 doesthiswork: well that's what these used clothes stores imply 20:49:02 they buy fresh clothes every season, and give away the old ones to be sold in Hungary 20:49:38 yes, noblesse oblige 20:49:43 and the Swedish buy a new car every seven years, give away the seven year old cars to Hungary, who use them for seven more years, then give them away to Bulgaria, who then use them for seven more years, then give them away to central africa 20:50:19 C.A.R. 20:50:21 (The British cars aren't exported to Hungary obviously, because they drive on the wrong side of the road.) 20:53:10 Hungarian drivers no longer use both sides of the road? 20:54:29 doesthiswork: no longer. they switched to using only one side some time in the first world war or something 20:57:32 that's one of the very few side effects of big wars: since almost all the existing infrastructure is exploded by nazi soldiers as they leave the country, you might as well retire old standards as you rebuild things. otherwise it's so hard to switch to a different standard in some things. 20:57:44 s/few side/few convenient side/ 21:01:00 s/wrong side/left side/ 21:13:51 -!- Vorpal has joined. 21:14:15 -!- Vorpal has changed nick to Guest29637. 21:16:40 -!- atslash has joined. 21:17:00 -!- atslash has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 21:19:29 -!- wob_jonas has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client). 21:19:32 -!- atslash has joined. 21:19:51 -!- atslash has quit (Client Quit). 21:34:03 -!- shikhin has quit (Changing host). 21:34:04 -!- shikhin has joined. 21:38:34 -!- erkin has quit (Quit: Ouch!

Should punctuation be considered part of the word, or part of the whitespace? 22:30:34 rdococ: i would suggest not to do that. But if you really want, then you could select just 1 separation symbol. But even then you might find bad cases like 'apple tree "red fish" hammer', where people try to make a single word with quotes or other way to try to find escape characters.. 22:32:06 garit2: Do you mean that "I would suggest not to do that, even in an esoteric language", or "I would suggest not to do that in a non-esoteric language"? 22:32:51 Definitely second, and even in first case - may be.

Well, I was considering different methods to pass function (well, continuation) arguments. 22:37:19 Uh... what do you think I should go for? I was thinking "by reference" so that functions could modify variables passed to them, but then what about arguments which aren't valid R-values (e.g. "3", or "a + 1")? 22:38:39 make "3" mutable 22:39:45 Is that in the "break mathematics and logic" kind of way? 22:40:08 Because that just sounds kind of odd to me. 22:40:24 Haskell d 22:43:12 haskel allows you to let expressions be whatever you like such as "let 1+1 = 5 in 1+1" 22:43:37 That's pretty odd, then. 22:43:42 it has the benefit of consistency 22:44:07 so you can uniformly pass expressions by reference 22:45:34 doesthiswork: I had the idea that variables would basically be pointers, and you would have to dereference them to access their values. 22:46:51 E.G. "a = 3" assigns 3 to the variable 'a', but "a" isn't 3; "a" is just a reference/pointer to 3. So, to get the value of "a" (3 in this case), you would have to dereference it e.g. "@a" (meaning '[value] at a'). 22:46:54 wouldn't you then just be passing everything by value? 22:47:41 what does @3 do? 22:47:55 Well, passing "a" to a function would mean that the function parameter - let's say it was named "x", now holds "a". Meaning that "@x" is "a", and "@@x" is 3. 22:48:09 @3 would be the third object in memory, I would suppose. 22:48:09 Maybe you meant: v @ ? . 22:49:18 a = a sets a to be its own address? 22:49:27 Yes, I think so. 22:50:35 The idea is that "a = 3" is writing the value of 3 to a, while "@a" is getting the value at a. I might be completely wrong here, but I think it's basically an abstracted form of a memory address. 22:50:45 -!- `^_^v has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep). 22:50:52 -!- `^_^v has joined. 22:51:15 If I wasn't completely wrong, "a" could function as a memory address. "a = 3" would write 3 to that memory address, while "@a" would get the value stored there. 22:52:23 do you have an anti @ to get the address of a value? 22:52:26 It's basically dynamic allocation. I think. 22:52:43 doesthiswork: Nah. 22:54:19 "a = 3; @a = 4" would set the value of the third variable (since they're not *exactly* memory addresses, rather weird... references with pointer-like arithmetic) to 4. 22:54:37 "a + 1" would evaluate to the variable after "a". 22:54:54 (Not its value, of course.

01:16:44 yes 01:16:57 I'm not sure if I saved the rant I sent to SE when deleting my account, let me see if I did 01:18:11 shachaf: http://nethack4.org/pastebin/stackexchange-resignationletter.txt 01:18:18 I had to golf that to fit it into the character limit, too :-( 01:18:35 helloily. 01:18:45 they gave a generic reply to it that implied that they didn't actually read what I'd said, and presumably was a stock response worded to sound sympathetic 01:19:18 i,i stack response 01:20:29 Would it be useful to get that text to someone there who would actually read it? 01:22:18 they'd have to want to do something about it 01:22:34 I believe the Stack Exchange higher-ups have decided to mostly focus on Stack Overflow rather than the exchange more generally 01:22:44 and possibly to make it into a jobs site as that's how they make their money 01:24:51 PPCG has done a good job at making a usable golfing site, but it's mostly via using half the site features in ways they weren't intended to be used (and in some cases are explicitly not intended to be used) 01:26:11 Are you going to make a better golfing site? 01:26:35 while i agree that se is terrible for code golf, i dont agree that all the incentives are wrong for proper q+a. they do it better than quora. moderation is screwed up but again, better than quora. 01:26:37 probably not, I'd like to but I doubt I'd complete it in a reasonable length of time 01:27:14 quintopia: I've tried using Stack Overflow to a small extent; I got a useful answer ("what you're trying to do is probably impossible") as a comment and an incorrect answer as an answer which I couldn't downvote because my account was too new 01:27:14 ais523: writr 01:27:33 I've had a better time answering questsions on Stack Overflow than asking them. 01:27:51 ais523: write up a design goals document for an ideal code golf site 01:27:56 the main problem with answering questions is that it's hard to overtake an existing answer even if it's correct 01:28:04 *even if it's incorrect 01:28:43 true. it could benefit from a medium-style upvote system 01:29:03 but "accepted answers" gets around that to some extent. 01:29:40 accepted answers can be fairly random 01:30:13 the next issue is, is Stack Overflow meant to be an FAQ site (i.e. compiling the answers to commonly asked questions for the benefit of everyone), or a "get an answer" site (i.e. aiming for an answer that helps the OP in particular)? 01:30:24 the answer is, it doesn't know, and the site documentation is contradictory on the matter 01:30:28 can be. but at least there is more control over them 01:30:53 PPCG would benefit from having the accepted answer feature disabled altogether, although that may not be true for things like Stack Overflow 01:31:16 i always assumed it was more the latter because it's focus on long carefully worded questions 01:31:45 so about that design goals document 01:31:57 I'll have to think about it 01:32:05 I've thought about it in the past but I can't remember all my conclusions 01:32:16 Why wouldn't you complete it in a reasonable length of time? 01:33:22 because I haven't really been able to do anything major for months, apart from in some cases my day job 01:34:09 Ah. 01:34:16 Maybe we're in the same boat. 01:36:55 Do you have a good idea of what a good code golf site would be like? 01:37:24 better than average, I guess; I'm not sure about good 01:37:42 I think one thing you have to make a choice about is whether you allow people to compete in languages the site doesn't know about 01:38:13 the ideal here would probably be "no, but there's an easy / lightweight way to teach the site about a new language" 01:41:58 ah right, I also had the idea that the CAPTCHA would be submitting a competitive solution to a recently submitted problem 01:42:13 something that most legitimate users should be able to do but most spammers won't be able to, even human spammers 01:42:42 (this is similar to the CAPTCHA-equivalent used by some gaming servers for 1v1 games, which require you to win a ranked game) 01:48:11 You should write up your thoughts about how the site would work somewhere. 01:48:36 yes 01:48:44 need to write them down first, though! 01:58:42 -!- ais523 has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 01:59:55 -!- ais523 has joined. 02:04:57 -!- ais523 has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 02:06:10 -!- ais523 has joined. 02:18:47 -!- sleffy has quit (Ping timeout: 268 seconds). 02:28:32 -!- ais523 has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 02:29:44 -!- ais523 has joined. 02:36:14 -!- boily has quit (Quit: HISTORICAL CHICKEN). 03:01:17 I saved ais523's answer's from last time this topic came up 03:01:30 oh good 03:01:42 pastebin them somewhere?

03:12:18 yes 03:12:28 Why are golfing languages interesting? 03:12:34 the best general-purpose one of the non-vapourware languages 03:12:35 All they do is make all programs shorter. 03:12:59 golfing languages are interesting because they get closer to the way you think about problems 03:13:08 in a way, they're closer to natural languages than most programming languages are 03:13:23 the reason is that describing the problem is nearly always shorter than describing how to solve it 03:13:44 Well, golfing languages that use a fancy byte encoding. 03:13:49 so in a way, the more expressive a language is, the better it is at being a golfing language 03:14:04 things like fancy encodings and the like are side issues, the core functionality is much more important 03:14:19 OK, sure, the core functionality can be interesting. 03:14:34 most good golfing languages make significant use of higher-order constructs 03:16:34 oh, hmm, now I almost want to work on The Underlambda Project again 03:16:47 although being written in a language that doesn't currently exist doesn't help matters 03:17:30 it's intended to be a single program that's a compiler/interpreter with a very large number of esolangs as frontends and backends, i.e. it can compile a program in esolang X into esolang Y, or run it directly 03:17:46 however, it's /also/ written in a language it supports, so it can translate itself into any of those languages (via quining functionality) 03:18:11 not very efficient, but lets you create an interpreter or compiler for any supported esolang in any other 03:18:25 (I might also include practical languages as output formats, and maybe even subsets of them as input formats) 03:19:24 shachaf: anyway, this is a good example of the power of golfing languages: https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/120979 03:19:39 just try to write something like that in C or Java or Python, it'll be much less clear what the program actually does 03:19:56 whereas ~h=∋ᵐ\cᵐ= is close to a direct description of the problem 03:24:12 @where pi_10 03:24:12 (!!3)<$>transpose[show$foldr(\k a->2*10^2^n+a*k`div`(2*k+1))0[1..2^n]|n<-[0..]] 03:24:14 @where e_10 03:24:14 [show(sum$scanl div(100^n)[1..[4..]!!n])!!n|n<-[0..]] 03:24:53 That's some pretty good golf. 03:25:05 Today I saw an algorithm for computing square roots using only addition and subtraction. 03:25:20 It was surprisingly simple. 03:25:35 is that the one that looks like long division? 03:26:12 Hmm, I'm not sure. 03:26:33 The way it works is, to compute sqrt(n), you start with a=5*n, b=5 03:26:51 As long as a >= b, you set (a,b) = (a-b, b+10) 03:27:32 oh, hmm, that's more of a bressenham-style algorithm, and different from what I was thinking of 03:27:37 Otherwise you set (a,b) = (100*a, floor(b/10)*100+5) 03:27:52 Which is an awkward way of saying you add two zeros to the end of a and you put a zero as the digit before last in b 03:28:41 anyway, golfing languages are normally easier to write in than practical languages for small programs 03:28:55 because they're so much more expressive (and often have more builtins too) 03:29:15 if they became popular enough I'd imagine they'd take over from things like Perl for short one-line programs 03:29:37 they're normally quite bad at maintaining state / doing imperative things, though 03:29:52 because they think in terms of descriptions-of-solutions rather than the route you get there 03:30:36 > let f (a,b) | a >= b = (a-b, b+10) | otherwise = (100*a, (b `div` 10) * 100 + 5) in iterate f (5*2,5) !! 30 03:30:38 (7406673995,1414213515) 03:31:03 what kind of properties would make a language work well when you don't understand some of the features and you don't understand the rest of the program you're working on? 03:31:19 > let f (a,b) | a >= b = (a-b, b+10) | otherwise = (100*a, (b `div` 10) * 100 + 5) in map snd $ iterate f (5*2,5) 03:31:22 [5,15,105,115,125,135,145,1405,1415,14105,14115,14125,14135,14145,141405,141... 03:31:23 doesthiswork: you don't understand some of the language or of the program? 03:31:41 I'd recommend language features that strongly encourage encapsulation in that case, e.g. strong typing, a heavy use of small subroutines, minimal state 03:32:04 that way you can normally write code that's independently useful regardless of what the rest of the program actually does 03:32:26 (fwiw, I think that this is the driving force behind Java's design: writing a language which is usable by large teams of low-skilled programmers) 03:32:57 would user-definable fancy types help? 03:33:09 I'm not sure, it might depend on the details 03:33:14 How fancy? 03:34:23 dependent types 03:38:58 dependent types basically give a very strong, machine-readable specification of how a function's arguments and return value are meant to work and what the function's meant to do 03:39:13 so I guess it'd help, except that dependently-typed languages are normally very hard to write in generally 03:39:25 which may well make them worse at everything but less worse than this, rather than better at this 03:42:41 My thought was that specifying more of what you think is going on so you can be informed that you were mistaken generally helps in cases like this, but when you're wrong in an unimportant way strictness makes it more difficult to get things done 03:57:21 program slices should be small 04:15:18 -!- ais523 has quit (Quit: quit). 04:40:34 That's some pretty good golf. <-- erm isn't [4..]!!n just 4+n, that doesn't seem very golfed. 04:41:27 oh wait Int vs. Integer 04:41:27 oerjan: try it hth 04:41:41 @where pi_11 04:41:41 [show(foldr(\k a->20*100^n+a*k`div`(2*k+1))0[1..[4,8..]!!n])!!n|n<-[0..]] 04:41:51 That one is even more golfed but it's too slow for lambdabot to evaluate. 05:50:05 -!- oerjan has quit (Quit: Nite). 05:59:58 -!- carlos has joined. 06:20:45 -!- xkapastel has joined. 06:21:11 -!- sleffy has joined. 06:28:36 -!- potato44 has joined. 06:51:30 -!- carlos has quit (Quit: Page closed). 07:03:14 -!- potato44 has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds). 07:36:35 -!- sleffy has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 07:46:10 -!- sleffy has joined. 08:56:32 -!- sleffy has quit (Ping timeout: 268 seconds). 09:20:25 -!- Warrigal has quit (Quit: No Ping reply in 180 seconds.). 09:22:32 -!- Warrigal has joined. 09:39:07 -!- xkapastel has quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity). 09:43:24 -!- Lord_of_Life has quit (*.net *.split). 09:43:24 -!- alercah has quit (*.net *.split). 09:46:39 -!- Lord_of_Life has joined. 09:47:24 -!- copumpkin has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 09:49:01 -!- alercah has joined. 09:58:13 -!- copumpkin has joined. 10:14:42 -!- doesthiswork has quit (Quit: Leaving.). 11:33:09 -!- boily has joined. 11:49:21 -!- AnotherTest has joined. 11:52:57 -!- boily has quit (Quit: COLLECTION CHICKEN). 12:49:16 -!- FreeFull has quit. 12:53:18 -!- FreeFull has joined. 13:40:08 -!- Guest32754 has joined. 13:53:09 -!- Guest32754 has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 14:22:16 -!- |f`-`|f has joined. 14:46:13 -!- `^_^v has joined. 15:16:08 -!- |f`-`|f has quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.92 [Firefox 42.0/20151029151421]). 15:21:36 -!- FreeFull has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds). 15:22:33 -!- FreeFull has joined. 15:31:46 -!- LKoen has joined. 15:39:20 -!- doesthiswork has joined. 15:54:46 -!- Guest29637 has quit (Changing host). 15:54:46 -!- Guest29637 has joined. 15:54:51 -!- Guest29637 has changed nick to Vorpal. 16:13:07 -!- sebbu has quit (Quit: reboot). 17:08:48 -!- LKoen has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 17:45:25 -!- rdococ has quit (Quit: ZNC - http://znc.in). 17:51:49 -!- rdococ has joined. 17:54:13 -!- rdococ has quit (Changing host). 17:54:13 -!- rdococ has joined. 18:35:53 -!- sebbu has joined. 18:43:40 -!- alercah has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds). 18:44:53 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 18:44:53 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Changing host). 18:44:53 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 18:50:59 -!- sleffy has joined. 19:54:05 `5 w 19:54:12 1/2:tanea//Tanea plays Minecrafs, Dware Fortresr, and lives in Yorj. \ photograph//A photograph is a device for creating photograms. \ monads//Monads are just free monad monad monad algebras. \ beethoven's ninth symphony//Beethoven's Ninth Symphony is a package most commonly installed in order to convert ODE files into JOY files. \ entryms 19:54:18 `n 19:54:19 2/2:g//ENTRYMSG for #esoteric is Welcome to the esoteric programming channel!

Now let's say void() returns zero arguments. Then f(void()) would be true. 19:53:14 I mean, of course it might, but that's not what I've seen in practice.... although I've only seen one language where functions may return multiple values, so... 19:53:38 rdococ: so, sort of you could 19:53:51 from a theroetical sense, it's actually returning a member of a one-element type 19:54:06 rather than a zero-element type, since you can't return 19:55:23 <\oren\> well, hmm, if void was treated as a proper type 19:55:37 <\oren\> then you could have variables, like 19:55:39 <\oren\> void x; 19:56:57 <\oren\> so really there's "a type with no values", "a type with 1 value", and "not really a type" 19:57:10 <\oren\> as different voids 19:58:34 yeah 19:58:37 <\oren\> void in C is not really a type, it's used where the syntax requires a type but there isn't one 19:58:55 or alternatively it's a 1-value type that can't be used in all contexts 19:59:01 <\oren\> right 19:59:25 <\oren\> but suppose there was a type Void 20:00:39 <\oren\> then you could do everything with it, but it would rarely actually compile into any code 20:00:55 <\oren\> void f(void) 20:01:16 <\oren\> void y; void x = f(y); 20:02:00 <\oren\> if sizeof(void) is 0, then void pointers would be usable better 20:02:06 <\oren\> well kind of 20:02:24 <\oren\> void *x = malloc(sizeof(void)) 20:03:23 <\oren\> i wonder how rust does void 20:10:35 -!- brandonson has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 20:12:37 -!- brandonson has joined. 20:14:44 -!- jaboja has joined. 20:38:20 If functions are thought of as returning tuples containing each return value, rather than returning those return values individually, then returning nothing would be equivalent to returning an empty tuple containing no values. 20:41:37 Hmm... is there even a way to use zero-element types? I mean, if they have *zero* elements, then how would that type do anything? 21:00:43 Huh.

But, void is no type; used when there is no return value (it returns without giving a value) or when it is void* is a pointer to not specifying what is the pointer to type. 22:18:49 -!- augur has joined. 22:19:01 You can also have a function declaration like int f(int x, void y, double z); but it's not super-useful, since you can't have a definition for it, nor can you call it. 22:19:14 <\oren\> actually, I looked and it turns out I have an empty struct in one of my projects 22:19:29 <\oren\> it has a bunch of methods but no data in it 22:19:38 \oren\: Your project is not strictly conf.. oh, C++. 22:19:56 That's allowed, though I think it has a non-zero size in C++? 22:19:56 <\oren\> yeah C++ 22:20:00 fizzie: Is it even allowed? 22:20:13 I think it's allowed in C++ with a non-zero size. 22:20:33 I think the GNU documentation says that in C++ the sizeof empty struct is one, but in C mode, the size is zero, which is more sensible. 22:20:55 I think so too. The non-zero size had something to do with the necessity of having different subobjects for multiple inheritance, or some-such 22:22:03 Well, there's also the fact that you have two objects they can't have the same address, or something like that? 22:22:05 <\oren\> basically it used to have data in it but now only the derived classes have data 22:22:06 I don't remember. 22:22:23 https://isocpp.org/wiki/faq/classes-and-objects#sizeof-empty says that, yeah. "To ensure that the addresses of two different objects will be different." 22:23:00 \oren\: structs with only pure virtual methods (and no data) are pretty conventional way to define interfaces in C++. 22:23:59 GNU C also allows the number of elements in an array to be zero, which in my opinion is also sensible (such as a field in a struct). 22:24:00 Looks like I was remembering the base class thing almost exactly the other way around -- empty base classes don't need to have distinct bytes in the resulting object. 22:27:23 -!- jaboja has joined. 22:29:28 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 22:58:43 -!- augur has joined. 23:05:16 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 23:11:52 -!- augur has joined. 23:13:01 -!- AnotherTest has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 23:20:19 -!- jaboja has quit (Ping timeout: 268 seconds). 23:24:37 -!- doesthiswork has quit (Quit: Leaving.). 23:43:56 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 23:47:05 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 23:47:13 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 23:48:53 -!- jaboja has joined. 2017-11-11: 00:02:26 -!- oerjan has joined. 00:42:28 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 01:05:11 -!- augur has joined. 01:09:38 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 01:23:02 -!- sleffy has quit (Ping timeout: 268 seconds). 01:23:07 -!- doesthiswork has joined. 01:27:08 -!- augur has joined. 01:38:11 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 02:03:32 -!- rdococ has changed nick to Rodger. 02:04:20 Don't confuse me with that other guy named Roger I found via /ns info. 02:04:55 But I think it's fine, since multiple people probably go by this name in real life.

Around $3-4/month is the lowest I've found so far for a VPS with 2G of RAM. Just hard to tell if these places would actually be an improvement. 11:58:48 (2G is just the current specs, don't really have a feeling of how well it'd run with less.) 12:04:26 For the record, the ones I have left tabs open are https://www.scaleway.com/virtual-cloud-servers/ https://www.hyperexpert.com/vps.php https://www.woothosting.com/pulse/cart.php?a=add&pid=73 12:04:30 The last is an odd special deal via lowendbox.com, I can't tell if it would stay that price.

The thing with the cheapest places is, they generally all have rather mixed reviews. Of course in relative terms it might still be an upgrade from the current. 12:18:36 I find it hard to imagine that you could do worse than CaC. 12:19:31 (It's possible, but basically the only reason that one would put up with CaC's QoS is their insane pricing. There's a connection between the two, I'm sure.) 12:22:41 (I have good experience with Ramnode's support. Tickets tend to be answered in hours (sometimes minutes) rather than days or weeks if at all.) 12:25:44 Mm. They've got reasonable reviews, and the prices (for "standard KVM") are half of DigitalOcean's. Still looking for that mythical combination of cheap & good though. 12:26:13 fizzie: funny thing about the wikipedia style banner... I never noticed it, because it required javascript. 12:27:13 Yeah standard KVM (not OpenVZ because at least when I tried, it didn't have proper namespace support which I use for rudimentary sandboxing.) 12:28:18 Anyway I just hate doing that kind of research, so tedious. 12:37:03 That's definitely true. 12:37:09 OVH is another one of those "good prices, terrible support" places, except a little more mainstream, I guess. 12:37:43 They also had a very written-about downtime just the other day, so we might feel right at home. ;) 12:38:23 https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/11/09/ovh_datacenters_go_titsup/ 12:39:30 Huh, I missed that terrible blunder. 12:41:00 https://www.1blu.de/server/vserver/ is one of those too good to be true offers 12:41:43 There's also hostens.com, which I'm amused by simply because it sounds so much like the bed company. 12:44:19 They have surprisingly good user reviews, wonder if they're gaming the system somehow. 12:46:54 -!- LKoen has joined. 12:52:45 "Essentially, there wasn't sufficient redundancy in its power supply lines, so when one cable failed, it all went down, down, down."

Whenever you call a user defined function you have to specify the exact value of the result. If the actual result doesn't match what you provided, the program quits. 01:50:07 doesthiswork: user defined function should be defined or not? 01:50:26 I vote for function definition, for better confusion 01:52:29 -!- augur has joined. 01:55:46 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 01:57:35 I don't quite understand the question 01:58:41 Oh, yes I was assumeing that the functions had to be defined before being used. Forward references are a sloppy practice 02:01:37 -!- augur has joined. 02:02:20 doesthiswork: except that then functions would be entirely useless 02:04:52 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 02:06:24 Best practice is functions for their self documenting names. That is still an important purpose 02:10:50 I'd agree with alercah. 02:12:41 doesthiswork: That's removed if you have to repeat the definition anyway. 02:12:52 It might as well just be a local variable. 02:14:12 That's a good point. Local variables are are underconstrained, and can be used as a loophole. 02:14:37 Well what I mean is 02:14:38 if you have 02:14:50 x = f[results in y + 2](y) 02:14:54 you might well say x = y+2 02:14:57 or 02:15:01 x_f = y+2 to preserve the name 02:15:04 or x = y+2 // f 02:15:36 Perhaps you should recapitulate how the variable got the value it has every time you use it, so you don't get it confused with other variables 02:16:54 treating it kind of like a 0 argument function 02:17:14 also 02:17:20 er 02:17:26 I suppose you could do that 02:17:35 But then, again, why have a variable? 02:17:42 Why not simply write the expression inline everywhere 02:17:52 since every experession would need a full expansion of everything 02:18:05 and you'd lose mutable state 02:18:14 most likely 02:19:06 because variables are an important component of abstraction and generalization. Getting rid of them entirely would make the program harder to read 02:19:35 But this would be equivalent to that 02:19:46 If I write x = y[definition of y]+2 02:20:00 then to use x I have to write z = x[definition of x, which includes definition of y]*2 02:20:11 I can't use any values without retyping the entire code leading up to them 02:20:15 defeating the point of abstraction 02:21:09 Well, people can get confused when things get too abstract. Its good to have concrete examples to help explicate and ground it. 02:22:23 Maybe it would be more efficient if the compiler substituted in the definitions for you 02:24:06 So you wouldn't have to spend time typing redundant information. I think you have a good point 02:24:41 -!- LKoen has quit (Quit: “It’s only logical. First you learn to talk, then you learn to think. Too bad it’s not the other way round.”). 02:41:04 If the compiler substitutes the definitions then isn't that the same as not requiring them in the ifrst place? 02:52:55 No, because if you didn't require them then it would be easy to call the wrong function by mistake. 02:54:10 But if the compiler is substituting definitions in 02:54:14 then there is no guarantee 02:54:21 since the compiler will just provide the wrong one 03:01:11 Ok, so it needs some extra redundancy to cat the compiler substitution errors. Maybe you could type in a hash that should match what the compiler will substitute in. This would protect against the compiler makeing the wrong substitution 03:43:02 -!- augur has joined. 04:19:35 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 04:28:47 -!- augur has joined. 04:37:59 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 04:40:08 -!- augur has joined. 05:05:19 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 05:07:19 -!- doesthiswork has quit (Quit: Leaving.). 05:20:32 -!- augur has joined. 05:22:21 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 06:20:31 -!- PinealGlandOptic has quit (Quit: leaving). 06:27:30 -!- sleffy has quit (Ping timeout: 258 seconds). 07:03:21 -!- FreeFull has quit. 07:41:33 -!- augur has joined. 07:49:06 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 08:18:34 -!- augur has joined. 08:19:26 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 08:22:07 -!- augur has joined. 08:26:41 -!- augur has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds). 08:27:27 -!- garit has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 08:50:49 -!- garit has joined. 08:50:49 -!- garit has quit (Changing host). 08:50:49 -!- garit has joined. 10:27:41 -!- xkapastel has quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity). 10:44:31 -!- imode has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 11:53:43 -!- hppavilion[1] has quit (Ping timeout: 268 seconds). 13:34:24 -!- ais523 has joined. 13:38:24 -!- LKoen has joined. 14:00:29 -!- doesthiswork has joined. 14:04:53 -!- ais523 has quit (Quit: rebooting). 14:08:02 -!- watered has joined. 14:08:17 -!- ais523 has joined. 14:08:22 heyy 14:08:28 is this esoteric agenda? 14:08:58 wot 14:08:58 watered: it's about esoteric programming 14:21:38 any interesting accomplishments of this language? 14:22:22 it's not a single language, esoteric programming languages are basically the entire family of languages for which being useful to use in practice is not a primary goal 14:22:58 does it prove anything? 14:23:04 there are a number of other reasons to write languages, e.g. to learn how to write languages, to explore the edges of what's possible in programming, as art 14:23:49 you can prove plenty of things with esoteric programming languages, but they're mostly confined to other esoteric programming languages 14:23:57 some of the most practical proofs I've been seen have been related to exploits in other programs 14:24:16 interesting 14:24:17 showing that you can exploit the bug to do anything via implementing an esolang (= esoteric programming language) usnig it 14:30:31 -!- `^_^v has joined. 14:53:31 -!- Slereah_ has joined. 14:55:27 -!- Slereah__ has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 15:00:51 Actually esoteric languages are very useful for computation theory 15:00:56 Since they're very simpler 15:01:16 IIRC the proof for the control structure theorem was done in the original brainfuck 15:01:17 P'' 15:19:19 -!- callforjudgement has joined. 15:19:23 -!- ais523 has quit (Disconnected by services). 15:19:27 -!- callforjudgement has changed nick to ais523. 15:31:08 -!- watered has quit (Quit: WeeChat 1.9.1). 15:33:42 -!- watered has joined. 15:35:46 -!- sleffy has joined. 15:52:52 -!- ais523 has quit (Quit: quit). 15:59:34 -!- hyp3rbor3a has joined. 16:05:30 -!- hyp3rbor3a has quit (Quit: Leaving). 16:05:40 -!- AnotherTest has joined. 16:35:03 -!- atslash has joined. 16:55:09 -!- FreeFull has joined. 17:06:36 -!- augur has joined. 17:11:52 -!- augur has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds). 17:22:53 -!- atrapado_ has joined. 17:25:18 -!- Cale has quit (Ping timeout: 258 seconds). 17:38:35 -!- Cale has joined. 17:52:49 -!- erkin has joined. 17:55:31 -!- watered has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 18:14:18 -!- ais523 has joined. 18:27:26 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 18:28:31 -!- HackEgo has joined. 18:38:18 -!- ais523 has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 18:39:32 -!- ais523 has joined. 18:46:34 -!- fizzie has set topic: Welcome to the international hub for esoteric programming language discussion, design, development and deployment! | http://esolangs.org | logs: http://codu.org/logs/_esoteric/ http://tunes.org/~nef/logs/esoteric/?C=M;O=D | https://www.dropbox.com/s/fyhqyvy3i8oh25m/wisdom.pdf. 18:46:40 (CaC is back.) 18:53:02 I'm still planning to move it to some slightly more reputable host, and ask (in a tasteful way, y'know) for people to contribute to the costs (est. around $5/month). 18:53:09 I was thinking we might have an "Esolang:Backers" page (or some such), where you could get your name on by donating (and opting in).

I think I had some PayPal worries when moving from Finland to UK as well, they seem pretty strict about the account being tied to a particular country and having one currency. 19:50:38 Will have to investigate more, I guess. 19:50:52 Of course there's always BitCoin. 19:51:56 fizzie: yes, my brother complained even more about it, since he lives in Sweden, and had troubles with telling paypal that 19:52:26 fizzie: it's like a lot of commercial wobsites on the internet are optimized to the case when they can guess your country and language from your IP. 19:52:35 And they never allow you to second guess. 19:53:02 Like, there's websites for scientific publishers that serve journal articles for free to "developing countries". 19:53:59 And this is international websites, not the websites of all-Hungarian stores, which are even worse. 19:54:39 In particular, mediamarkt.hu has a most terrible website for online orders, but since there are only like seven big electronics stores in Hungary, you can't just choose another one. 19:55:37 I hope the post will eventually just kick them in the butt for sending mass packages with improperly printed addresses. 19:56:14 And then they won't be able to offer free or cheap postage. 19:59:36 -!- atrapado_ has quit (Quit: Leaving). 19:59:48 I'm paying Finnish VAT rates for my DigitalOcean host instead of the UK ones, because they don't let you set the VAT country, it's forced to be the country of the bank issuing the credit card you're paying with. (And the Finnish card has better currency conversion than the UK one.) 20:01:36 fizzie: which one of those has a higher VAT for that? 20:01:46 Finland, unfortunately. 20:02:21 I see. 20:04:01 Does that make up for the higher VAT? 20:04:48 shachaf: I think that's what I ended up getting, when I tried to check. 20:05:06 Although I have a vague feeling I shouldn't be able to choose, but the VAT should be based on residency. 20:06:00 I've no idea how it's supposed to work 20:06:40 Yeah, I don't know. It's not like there's a physical location where they're selling the thing. 20:07:12 I also think that's how it works in theory (residency). 20:09:03 but giving a false address is probably easier than giving a bank account in a different country... 20:09:56 just move somewhere with no VAT hth 20:09:59 (I expect that nobody's verifying that address.) 20:10:12 How do I find out my credit card's exchange rates? 20:10:34 pay with it and let yourself be surprised? 20:10:59 shachaf: ask your bank. my bank has a homepage on the internet, and if you dig through all the legalese that is deliberately written confusing so you don't understand it, and phone them up to clear up ambiguities, you can usually figure out everything. 20:11:15 (the real answer is to read the terms of service, which *should* tell you how the bank handles foreign currency transactions) 20:11:17 I think most banks have similar homepages. 20:11:24 Most of my credit/debit cards have a foreign transaction fee. 20:11:35 Recently I got one that doesn't (it should arrive in the mail soon) 20:12:09 I think they add about 3% to the official exchange rate in my case. 20:12:55 shachaf: not high ones though. they have a high fee for foreign transfers, and a higher than usual fee for withdrawing cash in foreign countries, but for just card or online payment they only use a currency sell exchange rate which has a low margin. 20:12:55 But I didn't check. 20:13:09 I think the usual fee is around 3% 20:13:16 I'm quite sure they don't add a fee for foreign currency payments for me. 20:14:14 I'd expect it to be hidden in the exchange rate. 20:15:14 But if they can set the exchange rate 3% higher, they can do the same thing even if you do pay an additional fee. 20:15:24 Also foreign transactions can be USD, I think. 20:16:00 int-e: the sell and buy exchange rate for that definitely differ, but nothing as big as 3% is hidden there. 20:17:11 shachaf: for transfers, they charge the very high flat rate if the destination is a bank account not in Hungary or the currency is not HUF. for payment, neither matters. 20:17:36 I'm not sure about foreign currency withdrawal for ATM, I've never needed to check that. 20:23:15 -!- jaboja has joined. 20:24:53 "We're sorry, but we're currently upgrading our Website." 20:25:03 Who upgrades their website during business hours? 20:34:46 shachaf: business hours where?

01:56:49 anagolf's latest solution fixes that pretty neatly 01:56:51 you mean in markdown? 01:57:04 allow anyone to re-mark the program, it gets removed from the leaderboards if it's "magically" stopped working 01:57:22 So the program has to work consistently. 01:57:28 this also means that in questions where your program is meant to work for all inputs, you can use the recheck request to submit a counterexample; that doesn't work in anagolf because it has a fairly primitive marking system 01:57:43 Hmm, I wonder whether people have used programs that rely on the current date. 01:57:58 under PPCG rules your program would have to work consistently too (because requiring a particular $$ would count as an illegal form of input) 01:58:31 What about a program that only works in the 21st century? 01:58:37 shachaf: on the original code golfing site, which predated anagolf and collapsed due to not having questions very often, someone used time() as a magic number once 01:59:23 I think if you're going to write a program in http://esolangs.org/wiki/2014 or something like that, having the recheck link not work is not really a huge issue 01:59:47 `cat bin/2014 01:59:47 ​#!/bin/sh \ if [ $(date +%Y) = "$(basename "$0")" ] \ then echo "Hello, world!" \ fi 01:59:52 So that's what that's about. 01:59:54 although I think having something like a "disputed" or even "invalid" tag that people can vote onto or off the post would be worthwhile, in cases where it's unclear whether the program complies with the rules 02:00:49 shachaf: hmm, I see a big loophole in that implementation 02:00:55 it should have just hardcoded the "2014" 02:01:38 `cat bin/2015 02:01:38 ​#!/bin/sh \ if [ $(date +%Y) != "$(basename "$0")" ] \ then echo "Hello, world!" \ fi 02:01:44 `` ls -l bin/201{4,5} 02:01:45 ​-rwxr-xr-x 1 5000 0 79 Oct 28 2016 bin/2014 \ -rwxr-xr-x 1 5000 0 80 Oct 28 2016 bin/2015 02:01:49 Hmm. 02:01:57 `perl 'system "bin/2014" "2017"' 02:01:58 Can't open perl script "'system "bin/2014" "2017"'": No such file or directory 02:02:04 `perl-e 'system "bin/2014" "2017"' 02:02:05 No output. 02:02:08 `perl-e system "bin/2014" "2017" 02:02:09 String found where operator expected at -e line 1, near ""bin/2014" "2017"" \ (Missing operator before "2017"?) \ syntax error at -e line 1, near ""bin/2014" "2017"" \ Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors. 02:02:11 `doag bin/2014 02:02:17 5227:2015-01-02 sed -i \'s/2014/$(basename "$0")/\' bin/2014 \ 5219:2014-12-31 ` chmod +x bin/2014 \ 5218:2014-12-31 ` echo "fi" >> bin/2014 \ 5217:2014-12-31 ` echo "then echo \\"Hello, world!\\"" >> bin/2014 \ 5216:2014-12-31 ` echo "if [ \\$(date +%Y) = \\"2014\\" ]" >> bin/2014 \ 5215:2014-12-3 02:02:22 `doag bin/2015 02:02:23 ais523: I didn't even know we were discussing making a golfing site. 02:02:28 6472:2015-12-31 revert \ 6471:2015-12-31 ` sed -i s/!// bin/2015 \ 5231:2015-01-02 ` cp bin/201{4,5}; sed -i \'s/=/!=/\' bin/2015 \ 5230:2015-01-02 rm bin/2015 \ 5229:2015-01-02 ` ln bin/2014 bin/2015 \ 5228:2015-01-02 rm bin/2015 \ 5226:2015-01-02 ` cp bin/201{4,5}; sed 02:02:35 fizzie: we did a couple of times, I'm not sure if you were there at the time 02:02:42 fizzie: I think we were mostly discussing how we wouldn't do it. 02:02:49 What shachaf said. 02:02:57 You participated saying you wouldn't do it, if I remember correctly. 02:03:08 Yes, though I don't think ais523 was here at *that* time. 02:03:42 `perl-e system {"bin/2014"} "2017" 02:03:43 No output. 02:03:52 Is your code golf site going to support multiple metrics to optimize?

This means to promote, sustain and increase individual and collective knowledge and understanding of specific areas of study, skills and expertise. -- The types of charities that are capable of advancing education include: information media such as the internet, --" 03:05:01 There was some bit about how it shouldn't benefit a "narrow group" (but I don't think that was meant to rule out things most people simply aren't interested in), and a bunch of restrictions of what a charity can do. 03:14:28 https://www.gov.uk/setting-up-charity/structures -- the last two don't have a corporate structure (so can't e.g. employ people or enter contracts, and the trustees keep personal responsibility), but as far as I can tell are still eligible for HMRC recognition. 03:17:36 -!- erkin has quit (Quit: Ouch!

I am not sure though. 03:55:32 i have seen it advertized 03:55:33 Downgoat: ideally it'd help people find the sort of questions they wanted, which is based on solution techniques 03:55:59 and that can be very hard to figure out in advance 03:56:02 so there might not be a good solution 03:56:29 you can often guess in advance whether a winning solution is more algorithmic, more declarative, or more about microgolfing, though 03:56:45 maybe like 'bookmark' or 'star' posts you personally want to reference 03:56:55 (there's also [kolmogorov-complexity] which is very different from the rest of golfing, but it's already self-contained enough as it is) 03:57:06 SE has a starring feature already, I (surprisingly!) have no problem with it 03:57:15 that's only on Qs though 03:57:17 Why is kolmogolf different from other golf? 03:57:27 Actually "advertise" is "-ise" everywhere I think. I just looked it up in Wiktionary; it says "advertize" is archaic. 03:58:37 shachaf: having long constant strings as an important part of the solution is normally looked down on in golfing as the question becomes about optimizing those rather than about the rest of the question 03:58:55 and compression in that form can require some highly specialised techniques and things outside the normal goal of the language 03:59:08 normally you're trying to spot and exploit patterns, rather than work out a clever algorithm 03:59:29 Isn't all golfing about Kolmogorov complexity? 03:59:46 shachaf: well, sort of, but kolmogolf is specifically about when you have a fixed output to produce 03:59:59 and the output chosen is normally ascii-art or the like, something with a repetitive but not uniform structure 04:00:15 I guess you could think of regular golf being about writing functions, which run with no exceptions 04:00:22 and kolmogolf about encoding the exceptions 04:02:13 I'm not a huge fan of kolmogolf 04:02:24 ^ 04:02:39 How often is the most efficient algorithm implemented as eval + kolmogolf? 04:02:49 I like reverse-kolmogolf but got disillusioned with it because I normally took much longer to write my answers than everyone else so didn't get upvotes even though they were IMO way more interesting (and shorter) than the other answers 04:02:58 shachaf: it mostly only happens in PHP for some reason 04:03:15 not on PPCG, because PHP isn't that popular there and because people don't often think of it 04:03:21 but all the time on anagolf 04:04:42 here's an example of reverse-kolmogolf (full disclosure: this is one of my questions): https://codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/105303 04:07:22 -!- Vorpal has joined. 04:07:22 -!- Vorpal has quit (Changing host). 04:07:22 -!- Vorpal has joined. 04:08:49 basically you have to recognise a large number of large inputs, but you know the input will be one of those, so you only have to focus on the differences and don't have to recognise the whole thing 04:09:20 Now that you deleted your account, you no longer post referral links, which I like. 04:09:26 I can't stand stackexchange referral links. 04:10:13 shachaf: I got massively downvoted for complaining about some badges being seen by some people as a negative 04:10:38 I remember. 04:10:41 I mentioned the badge for people visiting your referral links as an example of that, thinking about you when I did 04:11:04 that said, if you can get the badge for yourself, you can just as easily inflict it on someone else by editing the link, as there's no authentication on it 04:11:05 Badge of shame. 04:11:11 and the badge is all it does 04:11:28 fizzie: Do you have any badges of shame? 04:13:31 the badges are really counterproductive in many ways, though, for example the fact that you got a badge for filling out your profile incentivised me to not do it 04:13:43 because I could always choose to do it later but I could never get rid of the badge 04:13:50 Yes, gamification is scow 04:14:03 scowification 04:14:24 I thought I'd be OK for it for something that was actually a game 04:14:27 but I wasn't, the incentives are all wrong 04:20:54 -!- `^_^v has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep). 04:24:21 -!- ais523 has quit (Quit: quit). 04:24:57 -!- watered has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 04:25:14 -!- bridger has joined. 04:37:25 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 04:38:08 -!- augur has joined. 04:40:01 -!- sleffy has joined. 04:42:41 -!- augur has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds). 04:48:13 -!- augur has joined. 04:55:40 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 05:28:44 -!- oerjan has quit (Quit: Nite). 05:31:28 -!- augur has joined. 05:45:50 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 05:49:23 -!- augur has joined. 05:57:06 -!- variable has joined. 06:06:07 -!- bridger has quit (Quit: WeeChat 1.9.1). 06:06:50 -!- watered has joined. 06:13:04 -!- Challenger5 has joined. 06:24:31 -!- sleffy has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds). 07:00:34 -!- FreeFull has quit. 07:01:49 -!- Downgoat has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds). 07:21:25 If you want to store a PC text screen (or anything that is close enough) with variable width and height, one format to use would be MZM, I think is work for such purpose. 07:22:36 The format is same like PC video memory but with a header that specifies the width and height. 07:22:58 -!- augur_ has joined. 07:24:27 -!- augur has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 07:30:19 zzo38: linky? 07:30:29 google doesn't show anything :\ 07:32:03 Here is a description that I wrote myself: http://zzo38computer.org/textfile/miscellaneous/mzm.form 07:32:43 MegaZeux is capable of reading and writing this format, although it supports a superset of what I described.

Is there a practical cheap source of something coke bottles, in that it's a liquid container with volume around 0.5 liter or 1 liter that closes airtight even after mechanical stress, but that are different enough from coke bottles that I can put poisonous liquids in them and be sure it won't be mistaken for a drinkable liquid? 12:10:30 Alternately, a practical and cheap way to mark coke bottles somehow for such a purpose, such that the marking is durable to mechanical stress and washing with water and soap and alcohol and rubbing (but not necessarily to washing with petrol or other solvents)? 12:17:22 The existance of such a thing might be a logical impossibility, because such a container would automatically be a practical way for storing drinks, and so would actually be used for storing drinks, and so can be confused with drinks. 12:17:30 b_jonas: i think you are required to add smelly/bitter components to poisons to avoid accidental consumption 12:18:29 garit: yes, that's a possible solution too, but in that case, is there some practical and cheap bitter component that I can add at home? 12:18:36 b_jonas: and there are thousands of bottle types, just check what productions you have local (i do have some bottles like milk bottles production nearby) 12:19:56 b_jonas: naoh even in low concentration is very unpleasant to taste, but check what is added usually 12:20:31 b_jonas: why do you have so much poison and what are you doing with it 12:20:37 garit: there are lots of bottle types, but many aren't sold empty (I am actually buying cheap bottled water to get PET bottles for example) and ones that are sold with soap or milk are practically impossible to clean the original contents off them. 12:20:43 -!- atslash has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds). 12:21:13 b_jonas: you might be able to find the bottle manufacturer 12:21:28 -!- atslash has joined. 12:21:29 b_jonas: check manufacturers who do sell them empty for business, order a pallet of bottles, might be cheaper even if you wont use every bottle 12:21:38 Taneb: household cleaning agents, which I want to package to a more durable or smaller container for traveling 12:22:22 cleaning agents i did see are nasty in smell already 12:23:14 garit: natrium hydroxide? seriously? I mean, that one is more scary than almost all the things I have at my house already. I don't know what it's like in small quantity though. 12:23:22 Do they seriously use natrium hydroxide for this? 12:25:11 b_jonas: as liquid cleaning agents? I guess not 12:25:41 -!- AnotherTest has joined. 12:25:45 but at least it definitely makes ingestion almost impossible, hehe =) 12:26:03 garit: some cleaning agents are nasty in smell, but some aren't. examples are (a) dishwasher rinse aid, which doesn't have a specific smell, and also is as viscous as water, (b) isopropanol, which seems to be cheaper to buy in laboratory clean version than as a mixture cleaning product. 12:26:19 I don't know what dishwasher rinse aid tastes like, it might already be bitter. 12:26:29 And I'm also not sure it's poisonous 12:26:40 but I still don't want to get it mixed with a drink 12:26:53 I did taste the isopropanol and it was the worst thing ever. But i guess it already had some stuff added in it for a bad taste 12:27:15 garit: yes, there are denatured versions with bitter additives, but the pure one doesn't taste too bad 12:27:24 at least I think it doesn't, I'm not willing to try 12:28:20 Heck, even if the thing isn't poisonous, I'd like a nice durable way to label bottles to distinguish between different similar liquids. 12:28:53 I use sticky paper for that, but for some things like soap bottles I use in a shower that doesn't work, the label peels off quickly 12:28:58 stuff that is used in pepper spray can be bought as a powder, and if person isnt mexican or indian, he wont be able to tolerant this 12:29:31 but proper stuff thst is used works in very small concentration, so is cheaper (because you need just a droplet) 12:29:40 I can use permanent marker on bottles, but for isopropanol in particular that won't work, because isopropanol solves the permanent marker ink, and even without that it sometimes smudges on some bottle surfaces. 12:30:37 Pepper spray powder? Does that leave a residue? Some of the bitter additives for alcohol-based cleaners live a solid residue, which is very annoying and sometimes defeats the whole purpose of using an alcohol-based cleaner. 12:30:52 -!- jaboja has joined. 12:31:27 Plus, I think pepper spray powder might irritate the skin more than an alcohol-based disinfectant. 12:32:02 you can dilute it more 12:32:30 it irritates the skin only in defence-grade concentration (10% mass) 12:33:34 about 1% by mass is what some of the peppers are, but most people cant tolerate that. And 0.1% by mass is what some cultures may tolerate, so probably too few 12:34:27 garit: hmm... still doesn't seem like a good idea if I want to use the isopropanol as a disinfectant, but can work if I only use it for whiteboard cleaning. would it leave a residue on the whiteboard? 12:35:02 Or a residue on the cleaning rag, if I use reusable textile for that? 12:35:42 yes, 1% is quite a lot of residuals 12:36:04 and its a sugar-like component, so it might be sticky 12:37:25 If you want residual-free then you either need very low concentration (professional stuff), or quickly evaporating stuff (like acetone) - but acetone-like stuff will leave the mixture with time and it wont be so unpleasant to taste 12:37:54 Actually this has turned to a specific other sub-question that I could ask on a forum: what cheap practical additive I could put in isopropanol (between 50% to 90%) that makes it have a bad taste but I can still use it as skin disinfectant, cleaning glasses, help drying bottles after washing, or cleaning whiteboard. 12:38:22 It mustn't leave a residue after evaporating, and mustn't irritate the skin or even open wounds more than the isopropanol itself does. 12:38:41 Cleaning glasses would need no residuals at all, even 0.1% or so will be noticed i think 12:39:01 Acetone... hmm, that might work, because it's definitely cheap and evaporates well. Is that bad tasting? 12:39:18 oh. "wont be so unpleasant to taste". 12:39:26 Its not that bad in taste but it is so dense in smell that its hard to breath 12:39:36 garit: exactly, and helping bottles dry also requires no residude. 12:39:36 -!- LKoen has joined. 12:39:56 and people tend not to drink stuff that is so unpleasant to breathe 12:40:15 if by "leaving the mixture in time" only means it evaporates quickly, that's fine for isopropanol, because that also evaporates quickly 12:40:44 Ah, i remembered now, for methanol government used kerosene and gasoline 12:41:05 "and people tend not to drink stuff that is so unpleasant to breathe" => I dunno. I keep hearing of accidents about people drinking liquors (esp. pálinka) from a mineral water bottle accidentally, when they consume a large amount before realizing it's not water. 12:41:07 kerosene is a bit slow to evaporate. But gasoline is a bit faster 12:41:30 gasoline doesn't have a bad smell or bad taste in small amounts I think 12:41:40 but you can add more 12:41:55 its very bitter and has distinguishable smell 12:42:05 at least in ~10% concentration 12:42:20 and leaves no residuals, evaporates a bit faster than isopropanol 12:42:29 and is about as irritating as isopropanol 12:42:31 hmm... interesting. although then it might solve things I don't want to solve when used for cleaning, although for the specific examples I gave that's not a problem 12:43:31 You can simply buy denaturated methanol and add some % of it, hoping that concentration of denaturat is enough 12:44:39 substances like aromatic oils, especially cheap ones are often disgusting , btw =) can biy those too. But their smell is way too strong 12:44:49 Wait, that reminds me, what's the price and composition of these denatured alcohol mixtures sold as coolant for cars? 12:44:57 Could that be usable as a cleaning agent as is? 12:45:07 Or does that have methanol? 12:45:33 I think its ethylene glycole + proper denaturat 12:46:02 ethylene glycole by itself is similar to isopropyl , but isn't as good 12:46:42 hmm. is it watered up much? 12:46:43 Price is about the same as gasoline, may be even cheaper 12:46:49 about half water 12:47:06 Might work if I mix it with the isopropanol. 12:47:30 I'll have to look this up. 12:47:41 not by the ethylene glycol though. You will be just using that small fraction of proper densturat 12:48:04 in this case you can just buy proper denaturat. Will be cheaper 12:48:34 Yes, but I can mix a large enough amount in the isopropanol, like 25% of car coolant with 75% isopropanol. 12:48:44 Where do I buy the denaturant? 12:49:04 I could ask in the chemical agent store or the pharmacy or something. 12:49:06 Ebay? they sell almost everything 12:49:33 They sell almost everything but won't ship fire hazard liquids, which some of these are. 12:49:55 They certainly shouldn't ship isopropanol or gasolene in mail. 12:50:11 That's why this sort of stuff is hard to get in first place. 12:50:28 I can't just order cheap denatured isopropanol from China. 12:52:19 Pyridine is used in densturated alcohol 12:54:12 Pyridine? 12:55:53 And aniline 12:56:31 Both of them smell fishy, which might be a bad idea for cleaning agent 12:57:20 Also, for labeling bottles, I wonder about these sticky strips that are printed with a handhelp heat printer they sell for cheap but with expensive tapes, like Dymo. I hear they stick well. I wonder if they'd still well enough to a coke bottle. 12:57:51 -!- AnotherTest has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 12:58:09 garit: I think the point is that the alcohol or bleach based cleaning agent can smell bad, if that smell evaporates about as quickly as the alcohol or bleach itself. 12:58:22 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitterant - 5 more things (not as smelly, but bitter) 12:58:47 Because you will leave the cleaning agent to just evaporate in those cases, and while it's not evaporated, the smell should be there as a warning. 12:59:25 Sort of like for the bad smelling agent for city methane gas. 13:00:03 So a bad smell is a good idea for these even if you don't try to drink them. 13:01:05 all of the above dont evaporate (leave residuals) 13:01:20 garit: the above what? the bitterants? 13:01:28 the pyridine and aniline? 13:01:42 No,those two do evaporate. The 5 of bitter agents 13:02:23 ok 13:02:41 I guess for a car coolant liquid that is not a problem 13:03:00 But they are bitter in 0.08ppm. Layer will be invisible even on glasses 13:04:31 layer is invisible if its thinner than 100nm or so. For 1ppm this allow to evaporate 100mm of liquid (usual evaporation thickness is 100um or so). so up to 100ppm is safe (can't be seen even on glasses) 13:05:30 it is still can change the feel when you touch it and increase the speed of dust accumulation, but people wont notice it 13:06:21 Wait, that's an idea. I could use bleach bottles! They're already used for poisonous stuff, and the bleach is easier to clean from them than soap or oily stuff from their bottles, I already buy bottles of bleach for cleaning, and some of them are durable enough. 13:06:51 -!- jaboja has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 13:07:15 If you need more than 100 bottles - call people who actually do the bleach bottles and buy a pallet of them =) 13:07:35 Lighter fluid bottles might be even better, but I don't generally buy lighter fluid so I'd have to buy them normally. 13:07:45 s/normally/specfically/ 13:08:30 It's not a perfect solution, but marking a bleach bottle might be better than marking a coke bottle. 13:08:56 I wonder if anywhere's selling cheap bleach in half-liter bottles instead of one liter bottles. 13:09:13 But even a one litter bottle is fine. 13:09:48 And there's these ugly gray square-shaped bleach bottles that nobody will confuse with drink bottles. 13:10:08 I still have to mark them so people don't confuse them with bleach, but it's better. 13:10:13 Kids are stupid enough to drink it anyways 13:10:59 -!- jaboja has joined. 13:11:18 Yes, but kids will also try to eat the dishwasher tablets and stuff like that. It's a much harder problem to kid-proof things. 13:11:31 My apartment is not small-kid-proof. 13:11:51 Thats why detergents are added =) to make it kid proof 13:13:11 And note that some bleach bottles have these safety caps, the ones that are supposedly kid-proof, although I don't think they really prove difficulty for a kid, that open if you press down or press on the side or something. 13:13:27 Not all bleach bottles have these though. 13:13:37 Its hard to open those though 13:13:41 (My vitamin bottles have such caps too.) 13:13:46 i mean physically, kids might not be strong enough 13:14:03 or smart enough to figure out where to press 13:14:23 so the strongest and smartest kids only will die ^=^ 13:14:24 garit: I can do that with a coke bottle too. If I screw the cap hard enough, then my mother can't open it. 13:14:44 But doing that could make the bottle less durable, so I try not to. 13:15:59 (It makes sense for the vitamin bottle, it's not easy to overdose those vitamins, but a kid eating the whole bottle of 100 pills would be a bad idea.) 13:18:08 Also, note to self, re-ask these questions when ais523 arrives. 13:23:08 -!- jaboja has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 13:38:09 -!- HW_ has joined. 13:42:29 -!- HW_ has quit (Client Quit). 13:55:12 -!- iconmaster has joined. 13:57:42 -!- jaboja has joined. 14:43:13 -!- `^_^v has joined. 14:45:01 -!- jaboja has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 14:57:07 -!- iconmaster has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds). 15:31:12 -!- ais523 has joined. 16:04:27 -!- LKoen has quit (Quit: “It’s only logical.

Rinse with water then dry an empty bottle of dishwasher rinse aid. Mark it as "FIRE HAZARD POISON" with colored nail polish, as well as put a more detailed (but easier to peel) sticky paper label written with pen, and possibly also a strip of colored PVC insulation tape around the bot 20:44:57 tle. 20:45:13 ais523: you're still here? good. here's my question 20:45:25 not "still", I just rejoined 20:46:13 but yes, ask your question 20:46:58 I want to take say 0.2 liters of isopropanol to my office for cleaning whiteboards. What is the right container for this? It should be watertight, should clearly not look as something that can be drunk safely, these properties should be durable to mechanical stress and cleaning the exterior with soap water and rubbing with a sponge, 20:47:22 I'm not an expert on isopropanol 20:47:22 and should also be durable to the isopropanol itself (which is why writing with a sharpie isn't an option). 20:47:31 you'd be better off asking someone who knows about it 20:47:56 Like a pharmacist? I should probably do that. 20:48:28 however, the easier solution might be to buy a dedicated whiteboard cleaner spray; although the ones I'm aware of tend to damage whiteboards in such a way that you can't remove ink from them without the spray, presumably to persuade you to buy more spray 20:48:53 eww 20:49:39 why is it so hard to clean your whiteboards, anyway? with a good whiteboard and whiteboard pen, pressure is enough, and in extreme cases water 20:49:41 Actually the easier solution would be to buy denatured alcohol, which is much less poisonous, and so can be put to an ordinary coke bottle. 20:49:57 I wouldn't recommend cleaning the whiteboard with poison 20:50:38 ais523: it's easy to clean if you clean it immediately, but hard to clean if you leave the marks on for weeks, and in any case, cleaning leaves a lot of residue that becomes ugly after a while. 20:51:09 Why is cleaning it with poison a bad idea? 20:51:22 because it puts poison on a surface that people might plausibly touch by mistake 20:51:33 it'll presumably evaporate readily 20:51:33 hah. http://www.peachridgeglass.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/3SkullsAprill.jpg 20:51:50 Phantom_Hoover: then you have poison in the air 20:52:15 yes, so you should make sure it's well ventilated 20:52:15 Touching is safe. Isopropanol is like bleach, it evaporates quickly and is safe after that. I clean my floor with bleach, and if you open the windows and wait for an hour that's also safe. 20:52:24 yeah 20:52:35 PH: yes, open the window to let the fumes leave. 20:52:53 'poison on surfaces is bad' just sounds like... ais logic 20:52:56 http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polishing-accessories/polish-inspection-sprays/isopropanol-alcohol-ipa-500ml/prod_818.html <-- serious version 20:52:58 I'd say that you would at least need the container to carry the standardised warning symbols for poisonous chemicals 20:53:27 (out of stock, but those orange warning labels look serious) 20:53:31 wob how did you even get the isopropanol 20:53:34 what did it come in 20:53:56 PH: In a one little sized bottle. I don't want to take all of it to the office. 20:54:01 s/one little/one liter/ 20:54:03 and I bought it 20:56:16 ais523: the standardized warning symbol is a good idea. that's a red diamond frame with some incomprehensible black drawing inside it. 20:57:17 I just feel really uncomfortable discussing this sort of subject at all 20:57:23 although, hmm 20:57:26 give me a moment 21:00:10 ais523: should I ask about repainting the wooden window frames with the kind of paint that requires these much more poisonous aromatic solvents first, to make this sound safer in comparison? 21:01:10 b_jonas: I happen to know a chemistry teacher, I was asking her for advice on the subject 21:01:26 (that's why I went AFK) 21:01:48 aren't you a chemistry geek yourself? 21:02:11 she says that she hasn't seen anyone try to use isopropanol outside the lab (and wouldn't use it in experiments), but uses acetone plus an air drier for cleaning chemicals off lab equipment, and very occasionally on whiteboards too 21:02:14 and it has similar properties 21:02:38 she says you mustn't let anyone drink or inhale the isopropanol 21:03:07 presumably you have to store it somewhere that only you have access to in order to avoid it being used inappropriately by other people 21:03:15 I'm still pretty concerned about the whole subject though 21:06:34 mustn't let anyone drink or inhale => yes, it's poisonuos 21:06:47 [wiki] [[Esolang talk:Funding]] https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?diff=53365&oldid=53361 * Rottytooth * (+586) suggestions about funding 21:07:18 isn't acetone worse? I can buy acetone if it works on whiteboards, but I thought it was worse, because it's similarly a fire hazard even in vapor form, it's poisonous to ingest, and solves more things than isopropanol 21:07:21 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isopropyl_alcohol#Toxicology ... I can imagine worse poisons. Also "Rubbing alcohol, hand sanitizer, and disinfecting pads typically contain a 60–70% solution of isopropyl alcohol in water." (dilution affects toxicity but will happen anyway *if* you ingest the stuff.) 21:07:31 acetone is what you get if you ingest it 21:08:47 wob_jonas: isopropanol metabolises to acetone, so they're similarly poisonous 21:09:24 ais523: yes, but I thought acetone was a more powerful solvent for household stuff, I could be wrong in that 21:10:21 right, the reason she uses acetone is I think precisely because its a powerful solvent, she's trying to clean substantially more dangerous chemicals off glass 21:10:28 and most of them disolve in either water or acetone 21:10:31 denatured ethanol might be better, because it's less poisonous, but has similar properties as a solvent, as in works for whiteboard cleaning, and is similar fire hazard 21:10:51 I've used ethanol to clean permanent marker off glass myself 21:11:13 so I guess it's in the category of chemicals I'm not afraid of 21:11:36 yes, ethanol works for that, it even lets you clean permanent marker from more rough surfaces by rubbing (it's easier to clean from glass) 21:15:04 anyway, I'm really not an expert at this sort of thing; I think I have an A-level in chemistry but didn't score amazingly well at it 21:15:20 Ok, thanks for the help anyway. 21:16:16 I'll try to look up where I can get cheap and already denatured hand disinfectants based on alcohol or isopropanol, but so far I've found they're generally sold pretty expensive in most places. 21:16:39 Those would work as whiteboard cleaner and similar too. 21:17:08 But even then I want to figure out this bottle thing. 21:19:09 I think storing it in a locked cabinet where only you have the key, + written warnings, + the standardised warning pictographs 21:20:17 a locked cabinet might just about be possible, but a locked cabinet for which only I have the key sounds unrealistic for the office (this isn't at home) 21:20:39 written warnings are definitely what I want, but I'm asking how I can make them durable on the bottle 21:21:10 hmm, in my office everyone has a cabinet to which only they have the key 21:21:19 how could you possibly keep private records and the like without that? 21:21:41 In theory I could take in a small metal casette for which only I have the key or something, but that's a bit expensive. 21:22:42 also a bottle whose entire purpose is to contain a chemical that cleans ink off surfaces is unlikely to be able to write warnings on 21:22:50 as they'd have too much of a chance of being rubbed off by the same chemical 21:23:00 ais523: wait, really? Isn't only one person having the key usually impractical? Most keys have copies at different people because anyone might lose keys by accident or pickpocketing or robbing? 21:23:25 Even then, most workers at our office don't have separate lockers for which only few people have a key. 21:23:33 wob_jonas: oh, there are master keys I think 21:23:37 but they'd be unlikely to be used 21:23:48 I mean, you're the only person who has a key intended for genreal use 21:24:03 We have expensive equipment in lockers for which only few people have the key, plus we have the system administrators' room for which I think only the three sysadmins have the key, or perhaps one more person. 21:24:18 Also the server room for which similarly only the sysadmins have the kye. 21:24:46 I definitely don't have such a lockable closet at work, and most other co-workers don't have one either. 21:25:13 I use mine for storing my laptop in sometimes when I go out to eat, that sort of thing 21:25:20 (I don't store poisonous chemicals in mine) 21:25:47 I have my own desk and unlocked boxes labeled with my names where other people are unlikely to touch my belongings, and there's some personal things like my home keys that I always keep on my person at work. 21:26:44 oh, we have something of a theft problem in our department 21:27:17 Sure, we have things stolen too, but it's mostly valuable things. My less valuable personal belongings are less likely to be stolen, and even if they are, they're cheap to replace. 21:27:36 So I wouldn't leave valuable equipment out in the open. 21:27:39 at one point someone set off the fire alarm then started stealing things while people were evacuated, but they got caught fairly quickly because they had to use a swipe card to get through some of the doors 21:28:46 That's scary. Is that a crime even if not actually stealing anything, only intending to steal? In any case, it's a pretty bad idea. 21:29:21 I don't think anybody does that here. They just walk in open doors when nobody pays attention and remove things acting as if they have authority in case anyone watches. 21:29:23 I don't think it's technically illegal? it's a firable offence though 21:29:55 I'm not a lawyer. 21:30:17 interestingly, in the UK I think (not sure, not a lawyer) it's legal to take something you don't own as long as the owner doesn't need it at the time and you give it back undamaged; at least, I know it isn't theft, it might violate some other law though 21:31:11 That's definitely not the case here. We've had things disappear, not just used for a bit and returned. 21:31:23 Some of it might be accidental loss, but we believe some of it is deliberate theft. 21:31:48 I don't want to give any ideas, but the security is really terrible here, so it's easy to steal stuff. 21:32:48 Except for the stuff that is stored in the rooms that only few people have keys for and aren't left open. We have a large storage room for valuables like that, plus the server room and sysadmin's room which are even safer. 21:39:57 Meanwhile, M:tG is previewing the third un-set. 21:42:17 yes 21:42:59 It's a pity they're releasing it just a year after the second Conspiracy set, because some of the conspiracy cards in that feel like un-cards. 21:42:59 incidentally, it's added a new card for the "allow people to deduce the game rules purely by reading cards" deck 21:43:02 Un sets are good for that 21:43:21 e.g. the card that reverses the order of phases lists them all in its reminder text 21:44:23 Ah, you mean a deck that lets a future person reconstruct the rules if they don't have access to the comp rules or similar, but only to a deck of cards preserved in a durable photo or something. 21:45:01 I thought at first of a deck based on R&D's Secret Lair 21:46:22 As for cards for the deck you mean, I've been asking for a Sea's Claim with reminder text. 21:46:40 Although I must admit that I like the mountaintop boatmaker. 21:47:00 `card-by-name Decimation Clock 21:47:02 No output. 21:47:02 So maybe a Spreading Seas with reminder text instead. 21:47:08 `card_by_name Decimation Clock 21:47:09 ​/home/hackbot/hackbot.hg/multibot_cmds/lib/limits: line 5: exec: card_by_name: not found 21:47:15 hmm, what's it called 21:47:27 `card-by-name spreading seas 21:47:28 Spreading Seas \ 1U \ Enchantment -- Aura \ Enchant land \ When Spreading Seas enters the battlefield, draw a card. \ Enchanted land is an Island. \ ZEN-C 21:47:30 -!- Cale_ has joined. 21:49:11 cute. 21:49:35 `card-by-name Decimator Web 21:49:36 Decimator Web \ 4 \ Artifact \ {4}, {T}: Target opponent loses 2 life, gets a poison counter, then puts the top six cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard. \ MBS-R 21:49:41 there we go, that's the core of the deck 21:50:19 ah, nice! 21:50:29 tells about the sixty cards 21:50:36 and 10 poison, and 20 life 21:50:37 decimator 21:51:08 `card-by-name lich's mirror 21:51:08 yeah, but the 10 poison is easy, it's mentioned in a lot of reminder text, and the 20 life can be guessed from some other cards 21:51:09 Lich's Mirror \ 5 \ Artifact \ If you would lose the game, instead shuffle your hand, your graveyard, and all permanents you own into your library, then draw seven cards and your life total becomes 20. \ ALA-M 21:51:14 then that gives you the 7 cards 21:51:29 (once you've established that life totals start at 20 it's clear that it's restarting the game) 21:51:53 wow that card has a lot of rulings 21:58:51 -!- iconmaster has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 21:59:10 ais523: for the 20 starting life, Rebirth might be the best. 7 cards is trickier, Contract from Below (together with Rebirth) or Backup Plan could help, or if you have thousands of cards, you might notice that several refer to drawing seven cards, but none refer to six or more than seven. 21:59:48 Enter the Infinite normally draws more than seven :-P 22:00:17 Yes. 22:00:21 maximum hand size is a hard rule to convey; you can use something like Spellbook to imply that there is a maximum, but not what it is 22:01:40 And there are some cards like "Once with Feeling" that are specifically confusing if you're reconstructing rules this way. 22:01:52 ais523: for establishing that there is a maximum, Day's Undoing might be the best 22:02:09 or Glorious End, that's even cleaner 22:02:30 `card-by-name glorious end 22:02:31 Glorious End \ 2R \ Instant \ End the turn.

With the meld rules already in place, it would need only like a page of very simple extra rules. 20:18:12 There's no un-land strangeness like you'd expect from a major feature of an un-set. 20:18:54 wob_jonas: you could word it differently to make it fit into the rules 20:18:57 Now, some of the rest of the cards Unstable brings are certainly silver-border land stuff, sure. But augment seems to be one of the main mechanics. 20:19:05 have a keyword action on hosts that happens when they ETB and can also be triggered by other things 20:19:13 then have augments trigger the same keyword action when their triggers happen 20:19:25 ais523: even without working differently it could work with some Comprehensive Rules support. 20:19:39 It's not like it leads to a lot of broken invariants or contradictory situations. 20:20:01 it's not much weirder than bestow, really 20:21:45 You just need a few rules to handle some things, like how putting the augment to play is treated by certain replacements or triggers that care about moving objects, about what layer and timestamp the augment overwriting the characteristics of the host is at and which parts of it count as abilities or even characteristic-defining abilities. 20:21:54 Also how it combines with copy effects. 20:22:17 I think putting the augment into play is the only tricky part. 20:22:35 Anyway, it certainly needs like a page of new rules, but it's not something that could be done. 20:24:34 the main tricky thing in augments is that they act like auras but aren't 20:24:51 meanwhile, half-squirrel half-pony has me worried from a balance point of view 20:25:07 it's only two cards, costing 2GW, and goes infinite with any ETB effect 20:25:22 no, definitely don't act like auras. the complete resulting hybrid should be copiable by a Clone as is IMO. 20:26:50 -!- xkapastel has joined. 20:27:06 ais523: hmm... yes, that sounds sort of like a Kiki-Jiki loop 20:27:20 might be worrying 20:34:03 And contraptions don't seem much more silver-bordered than conspiracies and schemes either. 20:34:07 Contraptions seem it could work, but only as non-traditional cards and not in a "main" set. 20:34:11 it reminds me of copycat 20:34:26 I think contraptions are only silver-bordered because they're excessively complex 20:34:27 zzo38: yeah 20:34:36 (which kind-of makes sense for something named "contraptions") 20:35:08 -!- `^_^v has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep). 20:35:16 but then, maybe they just can't put many non-black-bordered effects to cards at low rarities, because people simply wouldn't be able to play games because of all the rules questions 20:37:28 so they reserve the silver-bordered effects to rares and a few uncommons, like Dr. Julius Jumblemorph and Mary O'Kill, as well as do physical dexterity effects at uncommon like the chaos orb cards that Unstable has. 20:38:15 Will they have anything relating to 100.6b? 20:38:28 On the plus side, at least Unstable uses dice rolling instead of coin flipping. I hate flipping coins. 20:39:12 -!- brandonson has joined. 20:40:29 zzo38: I haven't seen anything relating to that yet 20:40:39 however, there's a card Rules Lawyer which makes you and your permanents immune to state-based actions 20:40:51 which is a really fundamental thing to change the behaviour of 20:41:00 Oh, chapter 1 rules remind me. Did you notice that if you are pulled into a game by Kindslaver, then according to comp rules, you can't resign, so there's no easy rules-satisfying way to get away from the game even if you don't want to play. 20:41:31 On the other hand, since you're not a player, no effects known force you to do any manual dexterity stuff. 20:41:37 wob_jonas: if you just leave the game, wouldn't that cause the player whose turn it is to incur slow play penalties? 20:42:01 or, hmm, given that you're in control of the turn, maybe you incur the penalty? 20:42:05 ais523: I don't know. 20:45:05 -!- `^_^v has joined. 20:47:34 -!- irccafe has joined. 20:48:28 I also prefer dice instead of flip coins, if they are dice with six or more sides (dice with only four sides doesn't work so well). 20:50:12 I would think leaving the game even if you do not want to (or do not know how to) play game due to Kindslaver is going to be beyond the scope of the game rules anyways; of course you can leave anyways, although you will be disqualified. It doesn't matter, since you were not qualified anyways.

The code would be run in a new scope, whose parent would be the function's creator scope, and would match the parameters to their arguments (along with maybe a return keyword to match to the caller's continuation). 16:32:34 Closures would simply be functions which access variables in their creator scope. 16:35:46 -!- LKoen has joined. 16:45:49 nice idea 16:48:43 I think I could integrate this concept in XTW by mapping ::l::__ to the parent scope and so on like ::l::__::.. 16:50:10 I need to keep track of special variables in the interpreter (in the symbol table, which maps variable name to numbers and uses them at runtime) 16:57:39 -!- sftp has quit (Max SendQ exceeded). 16:58:04 -!- sleffy has joined. 16:58:08 -!- sftp has joined. 17:34:20 -!- xkapastel has joined. 17:38:58 but I think that one level (::l::__::var) is enough 17:55:58 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 17:55:58 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Changing host). 17:55:58 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 17:57:45 -!- sebbu2 has joined. 17:58:31 -!- sebbu has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 17:59:04 -!- FreeFull has joined. 18:01:17 -!- sebbu2 has changed nick to sebbu. 18:08:57 -!- LKoen has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 18:13:40 -!- LKoen has joined. 18:17:24 ok, I resolve parent namespaces recursively 18:18:35 NOTE : I don't implement first-class scopes, but emulate that with dynamic resolved namespaces. 18:20:39 Ah. 18:24:02 -!- LKoen has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 18:25:46 -!- watered has joined. 18:31:46 done. https://github.com/zserik/zxtw/blob/master/examples/lclparent.xtw (output: before: 1\nafter: 2\n) 18:36:35 it's easier to emulate first-class scopes with dynamic namespace with resolving them partly at startup-time (before the interpreter builds the bytecode) and the rest done at runtime (could be done at startup-time too, I would just need to cache how many scopes to skip) 18:38:25 instead of emulating first-class scopes with compose at scope-push and decompose at scope-pop (with dereferencing) 18:39:30 namespaces, as the man said, are one honking great idea 18:52:47 One disadvantage of the interpreter is that it suppports functions only at global scope (not inside a namespace) but a function name prefixed with a namespace. It supports namespace at global scope and inside functions 19:13:32 -!- Cale_ has joined. 19:14:21 -!- MrBusiness has quit (Quit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIIqYqtR1lY -- Suicide is Painless - Johnny Mandel). 19:18:20 -!- LKoen has joined. 19:18:23 -!- LKoen has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 20:19:51 -!- watered has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 20:20:19 -!- watered has joined. 20:42:53 bye 20:42:55 -!- zseri has quit (Quit: Leaving). 20:43:22 -!- ais523 has joined. 20:49:24 -!- ais523 has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 20:50:37 -!- ais523 has joined. 20:51:48 'Ello, ais523.

Svn supports this, although there are some limitations. 22:05:38 This is a very important feature to me. 22:05:43 so it turns out Half-Squirrel Half-Pony actually got errata 22:06:03 If you happen to know that git or mercurial has gained ability to do this since I heard these info, then PLEASE tell me. 22:06:08 wob_jonas: I don't think the git/mercurial storage model is intended for repositories where that feature would be useful 22:06:31 I know a little about how a git repo works, and I'm quite sure that it should be possible to support this, it's just that the commands don't currently implement it. 22:06:33 as it happens I'm currently working on a new VCS (scapegoat-inspired but less innovative and thus more likely to be useful/used in practice) 22:06:46 wob_jonas: no, there'd be no way to create a new commit 22:06:53 as the hash of that commit would involve the hash of all the files in other directories 22:07:03 which you don't have because you didn't check it out 22:07:24 ais523: but the hash of a tree is computed from just the hash of tree and file objects it contains 22:08:07 ais523: if I have a tree where some children aren't stored locally, their *hashes* would still be stored locally, so I can create a new version of that tree by copying those hashes (and names), and recompute the new hash for it 22:08:15 ais523: this is for git, I don't know about mercurial 22:08:17 what was the big idea behind scapegoat anyway 22:08:32 -!- watered has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 22:08:48 i didn't care about vcs at all back when it was a thing but i've learned git since 22:09:14 Phantom_Hoover: basically, the /original/ big idea was that each line would have a record of where it came from, meaning that merges could be implemented safely with less context in the files themselves 22:09:16 ais523: I still think it is likely possible to extend svn to a distributed vcs, and this would have some advantages: (1) it could be compatible with existing svn servers and repositories, that is, I could pull from a remote repo without that repo knowing anything about the distributed extension, 22:09:18 (and likewise, unsafe merges could easily be detected) 22:09:35 wob_jonas: how would you handle commit numbers? 22:09:43 (2) svn already handles the storage of objects and delta compression for you, which you can definitely reuse, and you can probably resuse its diff and merge tools as well 22:10:43 I thought svn was famously bad at merging? or was that a different VCS? 22:11:13 ais523: that was older versions of svn 22:11:13 ais523: versions before 1.5 or 1.6 or something 22:11:13 they solved it since 22:11:20 ah right 22:12:16 anyway, the problem I've come up across, which is leading me to think a new VCS is really needed 22:12:28 is a scenario where two related forks of a project exist that want to share some code, but not all of it 22:12:40 ais523: basically I'd have branches in the local repo that track the remote repo, and you can't commit into them directly, just like in git. the extension would pull into them, and store the correspondence with remote objects (with path and version number in remote repo), technically stored in svn properties 22:12:44 (this is obviously the case in the whole NetHack variants situation, but I can't imagine that's the only place where it happens) 22:13:04 wob_jonas: so you're basically trying to use svn branches like git branches, which are like git remotes? 22:13:13 that doesn't seem completely nonviable 22:14:02 ais523: svn already lets you have a read-only mirror or a dump-restore of a repository with only parts of the repo included, and can omit commits that don't modify the parts kept, thus skewing commit numbers. it has tools for this. what it can't do is pushing back, which I admit is a MUCH harder problem. 22:14:08 -!- jaboja has joined. 22:15:10 hmm… in the VCS I'm working on, you could check out a single directory but only if no commits had been made to that directory and to a file outside that directory at the same time 22:15:23 ais523: yes. the idea behind that is that this way you can use such a branch for any read-only operation that svn already supports, such as childing or merging from it. the extension would have to map parents and mergeinfo in a tricky way. 22:15:26 how would that interact with your usecase for checking out a single directory? 22:15:31 (what is the reason, incidentally?) 22:15:42 @metar EGLL 22:15:42 EGLL 222150Z AUTO 20020KT 9999 SCT026 BKN031 15/10 Q0990 TEMPO RA 22:15:56 @metar EGBB 22:15:56 EGBB 222150Z 20020G34KT 160V220 9999 SCT023 SCT043 14/10 Q0983 22:16:14 ais523: I don't understand your question 22:16:27 I think we're having some "G"s as well, even if it's not listed. 22:16:29 wob_jonas: well, you want to check out a single directory from a repo 22:16:46 I'm asking why, because that influences what implementation techniques a VCS could use for that 22:18:53 like, if a VCS supported checking out a single directory but had limitations, would the limitations affect you? 22:20:01 ais523: yes, they'd affect me. more like I want to clone and fetch a single directory, or more generally any set of objects, from a remote repo, and I want to be able to unfetch (delete local copy) any object, fetch new objects, and modify what will be fetched later (set paths to automatically fetch new children or not). 22:20:09 But I know that supporting this in full generality is difficult: 22:20:45 wob_jonas: I'm still interested in what's in this repository? 22:20:58 it's especially difficult if I want to fetch an object that is the parent of an object that was already fetched, because to do that with the svn representation, I have to recreate the local version of all the descendant objects as new vanilla svn objects. 22:21:03 that's still possible, but difficult. 22:21:41 what do you mean by parent/child here? 22:22:56 ais523: in git, every commit has usually one but generally any number of parents, which are earlier versions of the commit. in svn, commits don't have that, but each directory/file version has one (or sometimes zero) parent which is the immediate previous version of that object, and can be at any path as long as it's in an earlier commit, 22:23:31 and zero or more additional objects marked as extra ancestors merged into it. (there's also the restriction that directory and non-directory objects can't be mixed in parental relationship) 22:23:58 so svn tracks moves or copies of individual files or directories. 22:24:03 oh, "earlier versions of the commit" isn't a way to describe it, really 22:24:06 but I know what parent are in git 22:24:22 just wasn't sure that was the terminology you were using 22:25:16 an svn working tree (checkout) can already be partial, it has local copy of usually just the latest versions of objects, but it can mix-match any local path in the checkout with any path-version in the remote repo, and stores pristine copies of each of those files 22:26:12 you can switch any local path to point to any path-version of the remote repo, set them to automatically check out new files in a checked out directory or not, and update paths to later versions of the same path easily 22:26:56 (there's some limitations, some obvious because only directories can have files or directories in them, some apparently just limitation of the programs about what you can modify, and some limitation about subrepositories which are like git modules) 22:27:53 ais523: so anyway, about your main question about why partial checkouts are useful for me 22:28:49 ais523: as long as you're always connected to a single writable central svn server (there can be any number of read-only mirrors, but no read-write ones), you can conveniently use svn to store big files or big directory trees. 22:29:26 these aren't source code, but dependencies (possibly binary) that you often want to check out together with the rest of the project to build the project, or data, or whatever 22:29:32 you can also store multiple projects together 22:29:43 svn partial checkouts make this easy 22:29:53 -!- AnotherTest has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds). 22:29:57 storing multiple projects together is in general a bad idea because there's no obvious advantage over doing it separately 22:30:16 although, what I'm working on /would/ be able to handle that if nobody ever committed to both projects in the same commit 22:30:21 you can replace an entire binary dependency with a new version, such that their difference doesn't compress well, and only the server will have to store older versions 22:30:38 for binary dependencies, would it be OK to store the hashes of all those dependencies? just not download the dependencies themselves? 22:30:57 we want to store multiple projects together because one project can want to pull part of the code of another project, without making full dependency, and then want to merge bugfixes from them 22:31:03 I assume it would be, because the number of files involved is still manageable, it's just the files themselves that are too large 22:31:32 ais523: often you want to download the big binary dependency, but not all previous versions of that dependency. 22:31:41 but sometimes you only want to download some of the dependencies, because they're big. 22:31:44 most VCSes can do that already, including git 22:31:52 that is, download only the most recent version 22:32:10 ais523: I think git can do that only on a full repo. you could try to store deps in git submodules 22:32:10 wob_jonas: I've not read the context here, but we have this thing called https://bitbucket.org/Google/narrowhg that sounded like plausibly relevant. 22:32:39 wob_jonas: yes, git needs the most recent version of each file 22:32:49 ais523: it's not just that 22:33:11 ais523: but also you can't get full history of some files, but only latest version of other files, within the same git repo 22:33:17 it should be possible, but isn't with current tools 22:33:30 right, that's just a UI problem I think? 22:33:40 in that the UI doesn't give any easy way to do that 22:33:49 ais523: yes, which is why I'm asking if git has solved this since 22:33:58 ais523: they've already solved multiple worktrees (checkouts) with only one object storage 22:34:13 ais523: another thing though is that even without partial checkouts, I would want a distributed version of svn 22:34:29 I think the way to go in terms of implementing this would be a lazy repository in which objects are retrieved only when their content is requested, and only directly to the filesystem 22:34:31 you'd need to work online 22:34:39 but it means that no more would be downloaded than actually necessary 22:34:57 ais523: two things you could do with a distributed version are (a) maintaining a forked project of a project where I never push back because they don't like me, but I can pull newer versions of that original project and merge into mine 22:35:27 and (b) committing revisions locally while I don't have access to the central writable server because no network connection or something 22:35:42 or even committing local branches that I don't want to share until I clean them up 22:35:57 people do all these things in git, 22:36:47 why would you want svn in particular for that? because the people-who-don't-like-you happen to be using svn and you can't persuade them to change? 22:36:49 wob_jonas: For your case (a), I was using a thing where I had git and SVN share a checkout. 22:36:49 and they aren't incompatible with pulling from a central server, and in (b) you can push some or all of your commits to the central server later, while each repo has an immutable history 22:37:11 but git-svn works very well for both those cases 22:38:46 ais523: if I understand correctly, in git-svn the local branches and commits are git branches and commits. I like svn and the way it handles files and renames and stuff, and don't want to lose that. but yes, that's a good point, git-svn may help with some of the model, especially if you already like git 22:39:37 what git-svn basically does is to create a git remote that mirrors a given branch of an svn repository, I think 22:39:47 although it can also commit to the branch 22:39:53 as long as you have a linear history 22:40:18 (the git-svn equivalent of git pull is git svn rebase, in order to ensure that the history stays linear; it pulls the remote changes then rebases your local changes on top) 22:40:45 ais523: yes, and it's the commit back part with proper tracking of ancestry and merges that's hard. we already have tools to read-only mirror part of a remote svn repository to a local svn repo. 22:42:57 because the moment you want to push back, you have to figure out how to set all the parent and mergeinfo for the new objects in the remote repo. 22:42:58 Regarding the earlier discussion fork, narrowhg lets you have a shallow copy of all files and a deep history (optionally up to N revisions) of some specific subset of files, though (IIUC) you can't have different depths for the not-entirely-shallow files. 22:43:34 fizzie: let me look at that. can you also have no versions at all of some paths? 22:44:54 Just to briefly mention other version control systems. (1) cvs can do partial checkouts, but I think svn can already do anything that cvs can do, and cvs hasn't gained new features for like a decade, so it's safe to discard it except for compatibility, 22:45:02 wob_jonas: I forgot. Maybe it was actually more limited than that, and you actually could only get either files (up to depth N) or no files at all, but not shallow copies of everything. 22:45:48 wob_jonas: what about rcs? :-P 22:45:57 (2) darcs is like developped by some alien race and I didn't understand anything they say about how their vcs works, and (3) fossil now lets you create forks of a read-only repository and merge to it from the remote, sort of like private branches, but I believe it doesn't do partial checkouts, 22:46:03 This has probably been done before, but I'm messing around with a hypothetical language that compiles into BF. 22:46:05 (4) I didn't look at bazaar at all. 22:46:51 (in RCS you're supposed to work directly on the machine holding the repository, the "check out" operation is more like a locking operation) 22:46:57 ais523: I think rcs is something that used to count as a "version control system" back when it was created, but doesn't count as one in the modern sense. or something. 22:47:08 wob_jonas: it's a non-concurrent VCS 22:47:17 yes, something like that. 22:47:31 it does control versions, it just doesn't control access in any but the crudest way 22:47:49 (you have one repo per file, checking out the repo locks the file, then checking the repo back in will unlock the file and record a commit) 22:47:59 come to think of it, this is probably where the terms checkout/checkin come from 22:48:09 even though they make no sense in the context of something like cvs or git 22:49:36 ais523: yes, and "commit" is cleverly chosen so that the "cvs ci" abbreviated command would sound like either "commit" or "checkin", depending on whether you're a new cvs user or someone used to rcs 22:49:56 because cvs was originally designed as a better rcs, but later got important in itself, 22:50:25 just like how svn was originally a better cvs, but these days it develops on its own without regard to cvs, 22:50:46 and both rcs and cvs are probably not developed further with new features, and cvs hasn't even had a new release for several years 22:51:36 mind you, no new release for several years is fine for a mature tool if there aren't important bugs, I had no problem with no how the 7z compressor utility with windows GUI hasn't had a new release for like six years 22:52:45 ais523: so wait, you said you're developing a new version control system that isn't scapegoat. do you wish to tell a bit more about this? 22:53:15 or did you only say you're planning this new system? 22:53:38 currently at the stage of a) planning, b) learning enough git internals to be able to write an importer 22:53:59 I'm planning to use git as the backend in order to get a lot of functionality for free and take advantage of things like public git hosting sitse 22:54:01 *sites 22:54:12 also because git was intended to be a VCS backend rather than a VCS itself 22:55:01 "Half-Squirrel Half-Pony actually got errata" wait what? I haven't read the setFAQ yet 22:55:30 I'm really disappointed in it 22:55:52 mostly because with many cards, how they're meant to work, and how the FAQ says they work, is different from what you'd assume based on the wording of the card 22:56:08 there's a big departure from the "cards mean what they say" that you normally get on black-bordered cards 22:56:29 presumably the templating team ran away from the set 22:57:16 ais523: my take on that is that MaRo is really bad at rules, he should never have been allowed to be even the un-rules manager, and we should just ignore everything he says about un-rulings and make up our own rules that make sense 22:57:40 right 22:57:53 ais523: even for unhinged, many of his rulings make no sense. for unstable, there's much more cards that would work in black-bordered, and he's publishing a lot of rulings about them. 22:57:57 it says something that the half-squirrel half-pony errata was done by eli shiffrin (i.e. the /real/ rules manager) 22:58:06 I'll read them for flavor, but I'll not try to take them as meaningful rulings. 22:58:24 he says he was really surprised that the errata actually works in black border, because it inspects a property of the card that no current card inspects 22:59:00 ais523: where's this errata? is it in MaRo's FAQ? 22:59:11 somewhere else? 22:59:13 wob_jonas: yes, but the metadiscussion about it happened on the Reddit thread about the FAQ 22:59:25 or possibly about the erratum itself 22:59:48 oh yeah, the discussion for future errata used to happen in the old-style web forum that wizards maintained, until they closed it 22:59:53 there's even one comp rules modification that I promoted 22:59:59 s/promoted/prompted/ 23:01:38 -!- boily has joined. 23:03:14 (reading article) WHAT? that's not even what the card says. 23:05:16 wob_jonas: which card in particular? 23:05:31 Ah! So those red creatures on the packaging are beebles! 23:05:56 I didn't recognize them. Beebles used to be of a more rounded shape and less red. 23:06:07 ais523: Better The One 23:06:40 <\oren\> I ordered a supervillian laptop 23:07:22 helloren\ 23:07:32 what does a supervillian laptop mean? 23:07:53 <\oren\> https://www.sagernotebook.com/Notebook-NP9175.html 23:08:32 <\oren\> means it will probably double as a haridryer 23:08:35 wob_jonas: hmm, which part of Better Than One surprised you? the fact that you have a shared life total? 23:09:01 oh, the fact that you get attacked as a team, probably 23:09:04 ais523: that, and that it uses the rules for two-headed giant in general, not the default rules 23:09:10 but yes, the card makes it look more like traditional multiplayer than 2HG 23:09:58 \oren\: mind you, I ordered a new copy of my heavy clicky keyboard (after ruining mine by spilling tea on it), and it's branded "Demon King". not quite a "supervillian", but still an antagonist. 23:10:35 helloily 23:11:14 ais523: the augment and especially the contraption rules are also a bit strange, but at least there there's clearly a new keyword or supertype where the rules have to be decided, not just a plain card where you don't expect strange rules 23:11:42 the functional reprints of black-bordered cards are also surprising 23:11:51 like the card costing 4GG with trample and no other abilities 23:12:13 why would a card like that need a silver border? 23:12:33 (IIRC, it doesn't have any silly stuff on its typeline or the like, either) 23:16:16 <\oren\> but wob_jonas that keyboard doesn't glow 23:16:29 \oren\: I don't want a glowing one 23:16:39 I don't understand the point of a glowing keyboard 23:17:15 wob_jonas: You can indicate the status of different things (like passing builds) by differently glowing keys. 23:17:34 \oren\: Sager == Clevo, right? 23:17:37 Is the whole set released now? 23:17:50 fizzie: I have a monitor for indicating things 23:18:13 oh, the most obvious reason for glowing keys for me would be to easily place my hands on the keyboard when I'm working in near-total darkness 23:18:16 and I'm looking at the monitor a lot, but not much at the keyboard 23:18:18 it seems the whole set is revealed now 23:18:25 I'll have to look at what it says 23:18:35 there are indents on the F and J (and numpad 5) on most keyboards but they're often very subtle and hard to find 23:19:13 so normally I either switch to a window with a white background, getting more illumination from the screen, or else move to a text boxt that accepts input and experimentally type a few letters to determine where my hands are 23:19:24 ais523: I don't want to work in near-total darkness, because it hurts my eyes to look at a screen when the environment is too dark. I know there are people who this doesn't bother. 23:19:29 an illuminated keyboard would be a more direct fix to the problem 23:19:45 wob_jonas: eyestrains caused by looking at something that's dimmer / harder to make out than the surrounding environment 23:19:58 ais523: both 23:20:01 so darkness around the computer should in theory be the optimum for avoiding eyestrain 23:20:16 but eyes are also hurt by focusing continuously at the same range for a long period of time 23:20:21 ais523: no, that's not true. the problem is that if the environment is dark, your pupils extend too much 23:20:33 if the only thing you can see is your nearby screen, you have problems with that 23:20:38 wob_jonas: well, I try to make the screen very dark too 23:20:45 minimum brightness and black backgrounds almost everywhere 23:23:18 wait. Eager Beaver? how does green get an untap ability that works on any type of permanent? that doesn't make sense color-wise. 23:23:39 blue or rarely white can get that ability, green shouldn't 23:23:57 green always used to be able to untap, I think? 23:24:02 no way 23:24:07 it is able to untap lands 23:24:07 in old Magic 23:24:15 but then they moved away from that into just untapping lands 23:24:15 (which is already hard to balance, mind you) 23:24:21 example? 23:24:21 white can untap creatures, can it untap anything else? 23:24:36 probably only creatures, I think 23:24:38 wob_jonas: can't remember any offhand 23:24:50 cards which mess around with mass untapping tend to be UG nowadays 23:24:56 is the blue high flier a reprint? 23:25:20 not sure, I don't remember seeing it in the list of functional reprints but I didn't memorise the list in detail 23:25:24 UG would be fine. but beaver is pure green. 23:25:28 QUINTHELLOPIA! 23:25:45 I'll search 23:26:27 <\oren\> dimensions: 16.46" (w) x 11.63" (d) x 1.61" (h) 23:26:30 <\oren\> lol 23:26:45 does it even make sense to say which dimension is which? 23:26:58 as in, isn't which dimension is which determined by their relative sizes rather than vice versa? 23:27:14 <\oren\> yeah well it's certainly inferrable 23:27:14 ais523: it can make sense for some types of objects 23:27:34 ones that have fixed elements on a certain side 23:27:49 I think even a hypothetical laptop could well have d > w. 23:28:03 s/even/ 23:28:05 <\oren\> 8.6 lbs (3.9 kg) 23:28:07 ais523: like a washing machine would have its door on either the front, or the top and open backwards, so it helps to know which is the depth and which is the width 23:28:16 ais523: similarly with an oven 23:28:23 s/\/$/ \/\// 23:28:31 fizzie: you're assuming that the hinge is on the boundary between the wide and high sides 23:28:45 I'm not sure that's any more valid an assumption than that the wide side is longer than the deep side 23:29:01 ais523: I don't think I'm assuming that. 23:29:03 I guess the distinction between wide and deep here is the orientation of the keyboard, though? 23:29:17 I'm assuming width is the axis the spacebar is congruent to. 23:29:23 <\oren\> yeah 23:29:40 <\oren\> like, a laptop could have a portrait display 23:30:00 <\oren\> i've never heard of such thing, but it could... 23:30:00 ais523: the hinge doesn't have to be close to the edge. older laptops have a screen narrower than the base part, and a large battery part behind the hinge in the base part. 23:30:14 and at least one much-advertised laptop has no hinge at all 23:30:27 the screen component is entirely separate from the keyboard component 23:30:48 maybe that helps prevent it breaking, the hinge tends to be the most fragile part of a laptop… 23:31:36 anyway, I'm going to see if anywhere round here sells water at 11:30pm 23:31:40 ah. 23:31:46 normally I'd be home this late, but the water supply is under maintenance 23:31:47 so now we know what the mythic vanilla is. tricky. 23:32:05 <\oren\> like, what if you had a cube-shaped computer where the top of the cube hinges up to become a square screen 23:32:07 so I'm at work, and am not sure how easy it'll be to get something to drink 23:32:13 bye for now 23:32:15 -!- ais523 has quit (Quit: quit). 23:32:28 <\oren\> would that even count as a 'laptop' 23:32:48 -!- Phantom_Hoover has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 23:32:54 ouch. bye, ais523 23:34:18 <\oren\> hmm, or wait. suppose instead you just have a cube with a display on one side and a keyboard that slides out of the space under the screen 23:34:35 <\oren\> I guess that isn't a laptop 23:35:12 \oren\: no sliding, but very old "portable" computers in the 80s were mostly big cubes, with most of the space being taken up by a CRT, and there's a keyboard plus floppy drive that extends from below the CRT part 23:35:37 you know, before even laptops got LCDs 23:36:23 I think rarely really literally cubical, more rectangular cuboids. 23:36:35 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:IBM_Portable_PC_5155_-_Retrosystems_2010.jpg 23:36:43 ^ this one actually has an ordinary keyboard connected by cable 23:36:57 fizzie: yes, and some of them have the front side slanted 23:37:47 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ibm5100_(2297950254).jpg this I think has a hinged keyboard in fact 23:38:43 (and we've done a full circle, because apparently many people nowadays are agent content to work with such tiny screens, it's just that the rest of the computer got lighter) 23:38:51 <\oren\> wob_jonas: whoa APL 23:41:09 whoa. why are Prowling Pangolin and the new Bumbling Pangolin subtyped Beast?

Might need to upgrade to a bigger plan for bandwidth or storage, but I kind of doubt our wiki has that much traffic 11:27:46 would need to install php and possibly mysql though. Think I only have postgresql on that VPS 11:27:48 Storage is I think the key issue 11:28:17 Taneb: how much does it use for the wiki? Shouldn't be more than a couple of GB I would assume? 11:28:39 Honstly I don't know 11:28:51 fizzie is the current admin but I think Gregor has something to do with it as well? 11:28:56 ah 11:35:41 -!- boily has joined. 11:36:46 Vorpal: See https://esolangs.org/wiki/Esolang_talk:Funding 11:38:23 Egress traffic is (IIRC) in the order of 100G/month, and we've always run it on a system with 2G of RAM, not sure how much smaller it'd fit on. 11:38:52 -!- MrBismuth has joined. 11:38:54 fizzie: What's wrong with making a profit? 11:39:02 Or rather, with having a surplus. 11:40:30 fizzie: okay, my VPS is also 2 GB, and IIRC I have either 500 GB or 1 TB traffic / month available to me, not sure about yours 11:40:47 -!- MrBusiness has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 11:41:05 anyway my point was, if some of us already have VPSes, maybe there is some with spare capacity 11:41:14 Are you confident that it'll cost <$100/year all in? 11:42:25 shachaf: If we go with one of the less mainstream options, I don't see why not. 11:42:58 And with a mainstream option? 11:43:47 fizzie: we should be able to run on the smallest of even a mainstream option like linode from what I can tell 11:44:01 that is 5 USD per month, so it will fit in less than 100 USD without issueds 11:44:03 issues* 11:44:04 https://www.linode.com/pricing 11:44:23 I hear Linode is scow. 11:44:28 Though I use them myself. 11:44:37 Vorpal: I'm a little suspicious about 1G of RAM, and the 2GB instance is already $120/year. 11:44:40 I have had a mostly trouble free experience with their london data center the last few years, and the times I had issues their support was quick and helpful 11:45:01 They lost my password at least twice. 11:45:28 fizzie: huh thought I had their smallest option but maybe not, htop says I have 2 GB RAM. Or 1.83 rather 11:45:42 I'll log in and check 11:47:12 I'm using DigitalOcean, and they just added a new $15/month tier with 3GB of RAM. I think I guesstimated something like $25-30/month for Amazon/Google clouds (the latter has the business-only issue). 11:48:06 For the record, the cheapo option would be https://www.hostens.com/vps-hosting/#hosting__plan__group-tab-vps who have a €3.99/month plan (quarterly billing, 2G RAM, KVM) and pretty reasonable user reviews around the webs. 11:48:06 What if we used Google Cloud US? 11:48:12 For example by having Gregor run it. 11:48:47 I'm slightly dubious of cheapo options. 11:48:47 In what sense is using Google Cloud US having me run it X-D 11:48:58 whoa whoa whoa 11:48:59 hi Gregor 11:49:01 I kind of would prefer for the person looking after the MediaWiki installation to be the same person looking after the VPS, it's been a little inconvenient to have to bother someone every time some sort of control panel action is needed. 11:49:16 I mean, it works, but it makes me feel bad. 11:49:28 -!- garit has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer). 11:49:31 Can control panel access not be given? I don't know how these things work. 11:49:56 Not using CaC's amazing service. 11:50:20 fizzie: yeah I have the 2 GB variant 11:50:51 Maybe you should use Microsoft Azure 11:50:53 with linode you can create users, and either give them full or restricted access. I don't know how fine grained that is 11:52:21 The more core point here is that I was just donating the CaC server because I had it spare. It was spare because CaC is kiiiiinda trash. However, CaC continues to be kinda trash, and it'd be good to move off of it. I don't have other servers free, or any particular reason to be the server admin. 11:52:22 https://www.linode.com/docs/platform/accounts-and-passwords#setting-permissions 11:52:25 seems reasonable 11:53:19 Just to be clear about how crap CaC is, here's my latest support ticket on my other CaC account: 11:53:21 I would not want to run the server full time, I too often go away from the internet for long stretches to keep an eye on it all the time 11:53:32 « After a few days of my servers being inaccessible and nonfunctional, today they simply don't exist. The panel claims "install failed" for all four, when they're not new servers, and have been running for months or, in one case, years.» 11:53:44 CaC's response? «This ticket has been closed due to inactivity.» 11:53:48 huh 11:53:55 -!- garit has joined. 11:53:57 -!- garit has quit (Excess Flood). 11:54:20 -!- garit has joined. 11:54:20 -!- garit has quit (Changing host). 11:54:20 -!- garit has joined. 11:55:42 They lost my password at least twice. <-- by the way, how do you mean? Lost the hash of your password in their user db?? 11:56:12 Gregor: does someone (you?) have database and configuration backups of the wiki? 11:56:17 I've got a VPS for my own purposes, but it's tiny (512M of RAM), and anyway personally I'd not share it with the wiki. If we want to keep the wiki-admin == VPS-admin equality (I'm at least around enough, probably), I might just go ahead and pick the cheapo option and trust there's enough interest to cover that (relatively tiny) amount. Just not sure what's the best way to go around it. 11:56:32 Vorpal: I believe I have backups of everything. 11:56:44 Vorpal: I've got weekly backups here as well of everything wiki-relevant. 11:56:53 good, in case d fails 11:57:02 Vorpal: I think so. Or at leat told me to change my password for some reason. 11:57:10 I remember they lost password hashes at least once. 11:57:22 I believe there's also some other people downloading the public dump, which has all the articles but not the users & suchlike. 11:57:26 shachaf: huh 11:58:41 The directories I have backed up nightly: /etc/apt /var/www/html /home /etc/nginx /etc/php5 /var/lib/mysql 11:58:47 If I should be backing up something else, tell me. 11:58:50 fizzie: couldn't it just run as a couple of docker image or such? 11:59:15 Gregor: probably /var/lib/apt, more interesting than /etc/apt 11:59:25 Is the cheapo option much better than AWS? 11:59:34 since /var/lib/apt contains the installed package database 11:59:58 shachaf: it is probably not better, might be cheaper though ;P 12:01:06 Gregor: You could add /srv/esolangs.org for the wiki. 12:01:57 Vorpal: I backup /etc/apt and selections. You can mostly reproduce /var/lib/apt from selections, albeit a newer install. 12:02:50 Yeah, it's probably not *better*. But a t2.small instance already has a base cost of $16.84/month, plus $8.91/month for 100G of "AWS Data Transfer Out". 12:02:54 What a mess apt and apt-like systems are. 12:03:23 shachaf: How dare you insult our lord and true king Debian. 12:03:57 Honestly, I think this is entirely a circumstance to cheap out on. 12:04:31 There are lots of cheap VPS services, many of which are just fine. 12:04:53 One that I use and has literally had 100% uptime in the year I've been using it emailed me this sale: https://hostslick.com/cart.php?a=add&pid=177 12:05:05 $35/yr is a bit better than $25/mo 12:05:39 Right. The €3.99/month option had pretty good reviews (re support & so on) as well, and feels low enough that I think even without any sort of structured money-collection system I might get enough ad-hoc donations to cover it. 12:05:52 What about option (e) fizzie pays for an expensive option out of pocket 12:06:01 Or option (f) fizzie gets Google to pay for it 12:06:16 (Or just host it while they're at it) 12:06:30 I could just stick it on a U. Waterloo server. I really doubt anybody would notice ;) 12:06:35 (Note: I won't actually do this) 12:06:45 (Technically Google has an infinite number of machines, so it wouldn't cost them anything.) 12:07:34 fizzie: more seriously though, is there no option as a google employee to get a cheaper price for their cloud offers? 12:07:37 There's also the option (f)(ii), which is me paying half of it and getting Google to gift-match the rest, but that'd (a) involve setting up a separate non-profit to get to go/give, and (b) would really feel like trickery to me. 12:08:13 Vorpal: fizzie has no option at all to get the cloud offers at any price 12:08:32 shachaf: because you need to be a business? 12:08:34 hm 12:08:47 Vorpal: At some point there was a $30/month or so Cloud credit voucher dealie, but it's not really an option with the silliness with the Google Cloud and EU and VAT thing. 12:09:05 ah 12:09:18 Also it's not really guaranteed to run forever. 12:09:34 fizzie: yes I saw something strange about VAT when logging into linode just now. I wonder what that is about and how it will affect me 12:09:49 Actually, one thing I could probably leverage Google for would be to stick the esowiki backup directory (encrypted) onto Drive. As it is, it's saved on three hard disks here locally, but the offsite backup is only updated once a year or so. 12:10:00 (That's how often I visit Finland, where our bank safety deposit box is.) 12:10:12 How much Drive space do you have? 12:10:17 65G, I think. 12:10:41 I have 1TB but I think it'll be expiring soon. 12:10:55 Yep 12:11:00 I have dropbox instead of drive. Better linux client 12:11:06 as in, any linux client 12:11:24 I think I've got the regular 15G freebie quota and a +50G bonus. 12:12:19 https://github.com/odeke-em/drive has worked for me just fine. 12:12:41 -!- boily has quit (Quit: DESIGN CHICKEN). 12:12:53 (I don't really want automatic syncing anyway.) 12:12:59 hm they asked for VAT number, I don't think I have that unless I have a company? 12:14:04 Honestly, I can't even begin to imagine why people are considering Google Cloud or Amazon or what have you. We have a small wiki. It needs a dinky server. Cloud servers are designed—and priced—for scalability UP, not scalability DOWN. 12:14:20 indeed 12:14:48 fizzie wants to serve 5TB 12:14:54 Gregor: my point here was: do any of us who already have VPSes have spare capacity that would benefit this? 12:14:57 shachaf: per second 12:15:51 I'd say I do on my VPS, but no I don't have time to be full time admin. 12:19:17 -!- AnotherTest has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds). 12:23:23 fizzie: What if you developed a commercial code golf site with ais523? 12:23:28 Then you can use Google Cloud. 12:23:53 shachaf: I doubt it would be very successful as a commercial thing 12:24:10 It doesn't need to be successful to be a "business purpose". 12:24:23 I should probably just do the "get a dinky server and get some ad-hoc money" option, and then afterwards consider setting up a donate button via some service if that feels appropriate. 12:24:32 Though I did actually for reals look at the UK rules for charities, and if you opt for one of the forms that don't have a corporate structure (isn't a legal person and can't do contracts, but can own money & get tax benefits) it's not entirely impossible proposition. 12:24:49 heh 12:24:55 The biggest blockers are that I would probably need 1-2 other UK people as co-trustees (and possibly meet them physically once a year, that wasn't entirely clear), and the definition of "charitable purposes", while *probably* covering the wiki, might be a little hard to extend to other adjacent things, like #esoteric IRC bots. 12:25:18 Just sell out, man 12:25:27 fizzie: does the server run something other than the wiki? 12:25:27 You know you want to rake in the big esobucks 12:25:39 the irc bots run elsewhere don't they? 12:25:46 Vorpal: HackEgo runs on it as well. 12:25:49 They run at the same place. 12:25:54 HackEgo even gives wiki edit notifications 12:26:17 Well, that's done over UDP, they don't *need* to run on the same system. 12:26:37 fizzie: TCP surely? 12:26:41 No, UDP. 12:26:46 weird 12:26:47 Look, don't ask me, that's how MediaWiki does it. 12:27:08 UK charities aren't eligible for US tax deduction anyway 12:27:13 Apparently? 12:27:40 shachaf: Probably not. But they're eligible for UK Gift Aid for any UK donations. 12:27:48 fizzie: anyway, all you would need is something able to run a couple of docker images right? mysql, nginx and hackego 12:27:56 ugh, docker 12:27:59 I'm out 12:28:05 shachaf: so some other container solution then 12:28:37 shachaf: anyway what do you have against containers in general or docker specifically? 12:28:42 namespaces... good... containers... bad :P 12:28:53 the argument is complexity. 12:28:58 Containers are fine, but Docker is not 12:29:16 But maybe Docker is popular enough that I should give up and use it 12:29:19 shachaf: okay, I haven't used other solutions like rkt, so I can't really compare them 12:29:40 It's probably better if you build your Docker images with bazel or something instead of Dockerfiles. 12:29:49 And then you run them with Kubernetes or something. 12:30:05 and what use I have made of docker have been highly specialized and unconventional at work to simulate large number of embedded systems hammering on another embedded system. 12:31:20 I think I should sleep. 12:31:22 shachaf: right, Dockerfile syntax is a bit weird. 12:31:38 Syntax is not really the issue. 12:32:14 fizzie: anyway you might get sporadically reoccurring donations from me for the wiki. Don't expect anything monthly though. 12:32:19 shachaf: oh? 12:32:57 Vorpal: The monthly costs are likely to be so small, any sort of transaction costs would probably eat into them anyway. 12:33:09 Near-term, I think I'll just reply to the (two) comments on the talk page on the wiki and see where that goes. 12:33:38 -!- AnotherTest has joined. 12:33:58 The charity thing *is* real overkill, it just feels so tempting since (if I'm paying for any of it) the UK tax thing would be basically free money. (But it also feels like dubious tax dodging.) 12:34:10 Anyway, I think I really need to amble to work at this point. 12:35:19 cya 12:37:28 Gregor: why php5? (based on your backup paths).

(Which subcommands are implemented under NS also can differ by network) 22:32:17 so then do I Identify back and forth? 22:32:51 so yes I came across Nickserv isn't on all the networks, but I'll deal with that later 22:33:00 just doing basics today : ) 22:34:01 If you are registered, then you can use the PASS or NS IDENTIFY command to authenticate so that you can be logged in. 22:34:15 I am registered for Phoeni 22:34:18 I did some time back 22:34:25 but how do you switch names? 22:34:35 Issue the NICK command to switch names. 22:34:44 right that part I got 22:34:52 oh wait 22:34:57 I might be confusing myself 22:35:10 lemme think 22:35:38 A.

But because of my personality game doesn't last long =( 02:03:55 OK, can you elaborate how it won't last long due to personality then? 02:04:29 I go into too much details and other think that game is boring now 02:05:02 Play with the others who like that then, instead of who hate it. 02:10:18 -!- arjanb has quit (Quit: .). 02:18:23 This.

If A is true, then the gate swaps B with C (so it outputs (A, C, B)).

Well, I didn't see that before so I did not know that, and it is the method I was trying to use. I will look now at De Casteljau's algorithm and see what that says. 19:04:08 The reason my method of finding the root didn't work was a mistake that now I fixed, so now it does work. 19:11:17 On the topic of the Fredkin gate, you could encode every boolean value as a pair of values - (1, 0) for true and (0, 1) for false - which would mean that you can invert a value without changing the number of 0s or 1s (which a Fredkin gate cannot do), among other things. 19:11:45 -!- LKoen has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 19:14:41 -!- jaboja has quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds). 19:26:31 -!- jaboja has joined. 20:20:40 -!- jaboja has quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds). 20:22:29 how do you do "and" with a fredkin gate? 20:23:49 i guess you would take the first part of the first input as "a" and the swapped other input as "b, c" 20:27:27 you have an ifthenelse in the last component: (a,b,c) -> if a then (a,c,b) else (a,b,c). so if you have constants, you can use if a then b else 0 forlogical and. 20:28:47 i was referring specifically to the context with (1,0)=true and (0,1)=false 20:38:10 Well what you have a negated xor, I think 21:11:20 -!- yurichev has quit (Quit: leaving). 21:18:46 -!- moony has joined. 21:20:39 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 21:25:06 -!- rodgort` has quit (Quit: Leaving). 21:27:50 fizzie: The answer is none of those, it's a real problem. 21:28:01 fizzie: Assuming work behaves linearly and so on. 21:28:17 Vorpal: I also think time/distance is a better unit (in some contexts) than distance over time. 21:28:47 Vorpal: Just like people use litre/100km to measure fuel consumption, instead of km/litre 21:29:14 Vorpal: You pay time, and you get distance in return, so time/distance is the right unit for most calculations. 21:31:17 -!- rodgort has joined. 21:33:30 -!- rodgort has quit (Client Quit). 21:37:42 -!- rodgort has joined. 21:42:35 -!- jaboja has joined. 21:58:22 -!- augur has joined. 21:58:37 -!- augur has quit (Remote host closed the connection). 21:59:18 Hellaugur. 21:59:22 ...byeaugur. 21:59:55 shachaf: I thought 2 hours was the "linear" answer. I mean, assuming Tom and Dick do the same amount of work/time (clearly they have to, since Tom+Harry do the same as Dick+Harry), then either one of them already do it in 4 hours alone, which means Harry doesn't do any work at all. 22:00:45 fizzie: No, they all cooperate on the work 22:00:56 It's parallelizable 22:01:25 Wait, did I write it wrong? 22:01:36 Oh 22:02:11 Tom and Dick in 2 hours; Tom and Harry in 3 hours; Dick and Harry in 4 hours 22:02:18 Oh. Well, that makes more sense. 22:02:43 Yes, that was nonsense. 22:03:23 I thought it was a joke about either Harry being useless (doing 0 units of work/hour), or actively sabotaging things (any job involving Harry takes 4 hours). 22:06:46 quintopia: I get a CCNOT from the Fredkin gate using only one constant which can be used over and over again. http://sprunge.us/TcEN 22:09:08 quintopia: Where by "constant" I really mean a variable with a predefined initial state; is there a better short name for this? 22:32:28 -!- LKoen has joined. 22:32:39 how does a ccnot differ from a cnot? 22:33:25 It checks the conjunction of two inputs. 22:34:58 The fundamental difference is that CNOT is affine (and affine functions are closed under compositions so CNOT by itself isn't very useful) and CCNOT is not affine (and in fact, universal). 22:36:27 (affine: every output is the xor of a subset of inputs, possibly negated) 22:36:56 What is linear? 22:37:29 linear is doesn't have the optional negation 22:37:51 Why does negation correspond to translation? 22:38:14 because xor is addition, and 1 xor x is the negation of x 22:39:09 Oh, xor is addition 22:41:27 (CNOT is actually linear. Affinity is natural because it's one of the criteria by Post: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_completeness#Characterization_of_functional_completeness ) 22:43:23 (If you look closely you'll see that CCNOT needs constants to become functionally complete; it's false-preserving.) 22:44:31 Do you like the exterior algebra? 22:51:31 -!- LKoen has quit (Quit: “It’s only logical.

Any concerns about that? 10:56:12 (We're already doing one to MediaWiki in the bottom header, I think it's in the same category of things.) 10:56:50 [wiki] [[MediaWiki:Userlogin-remembermypassword]] N https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?oldid=53469 * Ais523 * (+38) there's some debate about whether this option falls afoul of EU cookie law; let's give people informed consent about how it works, just in case 10:57:12 I'm not concerned about that, so long as it's factual (e.g. "hosted by {company name/logo}") 10:57:41 it's equivalent to the "powered by mediawiki" logo, IMO 10:57:57 That's what I thought too. 10:58:14 [wiki] [[MediaWiki:Remembermypassword]] N https://esolangs.org/w/index.php?oldid=53470 * Ais523 * (+98) I can't figure out where this message is even used, but mentioning cookies in it too just in case 10:59:14 meanwhile, does this channel have any opinions on the recent ridiculous OS X security bug? 10:59:17 Did you end up buying a house by the power station? 10:59:23 Was that you? 10:59:47 It's a pretty good bug. 11:00:10 ais523: I'm just wondering how it could possibly have come about 11:00:27 Did they just have root with an empty password by default? 11:00:38 Taneb: no, it's better than that 11:00:51 basically, they have code for upgrading password hashes from old hashing algorithms to newer ones on login, which is fair enough 11:01:08 but if the account is disabled, the code that verifies the old password errors out and the upgrade code doesn't actually check the error 11:01:16 Aha, that's why it required two attempts. 11:01:29 (errors out while /fetching/ the old account data, not while /verifying/ it) 11:01:41 so it goes ahead and sets the password on the account to whatever you entered anyway 11:01:53 Wow 11:01:57 That's quite something 11:02:25 if the account exists but you entered the wrong password, the fetch succeeds but the hatches don't match, and they actually did check the error there 11:03:02 What can be done about error checking? 11:03:23 It's a cumbersome and verbose part of a lot of boring code. 11:03:31 -!- Lord_of_Life has quit (Ping timeout: 250 seconds). 11:03:35 Exceptions don't seem like a great answer. 11:03:39 shachaf: not having errors 11:04:08 Rust's solution of outputting enums that have to be unpacked to get at the return value is a decent one, IMO 11:04:19 (if the function errors out, it outputs a different enum tag so you can't unpack it to the return valuae) 11:04:25 " I'm not concerned about that, so long as it's factual (e.g. "hosted by {company name/logo}")" => could it say "hosting generously provided by {company name with link}"? 11:04:31 that at least forces you to write the error handling code 11:04:36 as in, to show that they've donated hosting for free 11:04:51 b_jonas: "hosting provided by" would be OK, I think; filling it with adjectives doesn't fill me with confidence 11:05:38 There are at least two issues. One is that you can just forget to check the error. That can be managed with a fancier type system or these enums or something else. 11:06:09 The other is that the error handling code is so verbose and boring that no one wants to write it in the first place. 11:06:13 ais523: hmm. how about "hosting donated by {company name with link}"? 11:06:19 I suppose Rust has some macros for handling the common case. 11:06:35 b_jonas: that works too 11:06:45 shachaf: it's not that noone wants to write it, but that noone wants to read it once it's written 11:07:05 Sure, I'm talking about the code existing, not just how it gets written. 11:07:23 shachaf: with a library I'm writing at the moment, the design is such that all errors indicate an actual problem in your own code (not in the surrounding environment), and thus you can safely handle them by, e.g., abort() 11:07:36 (and there'll be a wrapper generator that automatically handles all errors in a way of your choice) 11:08:06 shachaf: and I think there's a problem with the attitude how some programming people (especially the rust ones) try to encourage beginners to learn how to do full error propagation even in throwaway code, when in most code you could get away with just aborting with a stack trace on almost any error, 11:08:18 error conditions in the surrounding environment are treated as a special form of user input 11:08:18 There are several languages that make a distinction between errors and panics. 11:08:32 that said, this probably is heavily dependent on the fact that it's a UI library 11:09:25 also the problem when sometimes people want to handle just one type of error, but they don't handle that one early and propagate it correctly, and so they end up with catching all errors and trying to continue the program from wedge state after other unrelated errors 11:09:49 which is sort of the opposite problem 11:09:49 I've had to shout at people before now for just swallowing exceptions 11:09:52 in Java 11:09:57 -!- danieljabailey has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds). 11:10:11 -!- ^v has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 11:10:20 since they already know that most code doesn't have to propagate errors properly, they don't even know how to propagate that one important error that they do have to recover from 11:10:22 -!- ^v has joined. 11:10:29 I know these are two opposite lessons, so it's hard to learn both 11:10:30 the correct treatment, IMO, is to rethrow (or just not catch, if the language lets you) if it's unexpected or if it's fatal, and handle if it's something that could plausibly happen and can plausibly be fixed 11:11:09 ais523: yes, but also catch the one error you care about as early as possible, not just catch in the outer loop and restart 11:11:22 right 11:11:36 -!- danieljabailey has joined. 11:11:57 that said, there's quite a lot of catch(Throwable) in the code I'm working on at work, but then it has reason to violate a huge number of best practices because it's very low-level code 11:12:21 And I often complain about how people use multi-threading unnecessarily, or multi-threading in the wrong place, and when they do so, that often makes error handling harder. 11:12:47 Is there an esolang where all control flow is based on exceptions? 11:13:22 That sounds like it would be exceptional 11:13:22 I'm fairly sure there is, I can't remember what it's called though 11:13:49 Haneb 11:13:57 Seen any exceptionala cats lately? 11:14:12 No but I think I saw a baby deer last night 11:14:19 -!- copumpkin has quit (Ping timeout: 255 seconds). 11:14:41 I regret not stopping to take a photo, it was standing in a stream on my cycle home from work 11:14:43 Also, apparently after rust get the namespacing system almost right, people don't like the few small problems it has, and are trying to replace the whole thing with something completely new and much worse and depreciate the old one. that bothers me. 11:14:50 Is that uncommon in your part of the world? 11:15:01 (That's unrelated to error handling.) 11:15:12 Taneb: what type of deer? 11:15:32 http://esolangs.org/wiki/slistp appears to have exceptions as a major part of its control flow 11:18:20 b_jonas: I don't know, it was quite dark and I didn't get a long look 11:18:32 -!- Lord_of_Life has joined. 11:18:33 It may have been a cow calf, but that's really just as surprising 11:19:14 Richmond Park is full of deer herds. 11:19:29 There's always lots of people taking pictures of them too. 11:19:44 I live near Richmond but I've never been. 11:19:54 I might be going there next week, though. 11:21:27 This is about where I was: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.1935737,0.1597291,242m/data=!3m1!1e3 11:22:36 Is there an esolang based on economic concepts? 11:26:57 there's at least one thematic one that talks about discounts on goods, but I think it's just a syntax substitution? 11:27:00 I'm not aware of any actually good ones 11:31:06 shachaf: looks like slistp is the most exception-based language, in the sense of C++/Java-like exceptions 11:32:02 there are languages like Incident whose regular control flow isn't Turing-complete and they need to rely on exceptional conditions to gain their computational power, but they aren't exceptions in the normal sense 11:35:59 How far can you get with just function calls, throw, try/catch, and like maybe print 11:41:16 Taneb: what kind of state would you have?

That is a game variant 18:14:17 I have seen people test some standard (several years ago) deck with unmarked proxies, where only the players know which cheap card stands for which expensive card, so as an onlooker it was very confusing to me 18:14:41 zzo38: you mean like Richard Garfield, Ph.D. ? 18:14:47 `card-by-name richard garf 18:14:52 Richard Garfield, Ph.D. \ 3UU \ Legendary Creature -- Human Designer \ 2/2 \ You may play cards as though they were other Magic cards of your choice with the same mana cost.

(I think it was a game variant before the Unhinged card, actually) 18:17:05 -!- Phantom_Hoover has joined. 18:18:20 you'd need to buy a lot of {0} cost cards for that variant. 18:18:40 -!- hkgit03 has joined. 18:19:37 zzo38: in that variant, when I cast a card with morph face down, do I have to announce that it's Disruptive Pitmage? or do I write that in a piece of paper under the card? 18:20:06 I don't know. 18:20:19 I have read it somewhere but do not remember the rules or even if they had complete rules. 18:20:20 I guess you'd write it in a paper and slip it under 18:20:47 there would probably have to be limits on what you can play 18:20:57 `card-by-name blacker lotus 18:20:58 Blacker Lotus \ 0 \ Artifact \ {T}: Tear Blacker Lotus into pieces.
