213 213) <elliott> clue is a language for beauty, not usefulness <elliott> or ability to run at all <oklopol> ability to run at all is not even close to a design goal, no
214 214) <Phatom__Hovver> LoTR actually compresses pretty well into a film; the large amount of description becomes unnecessary. <pikh> LotR would compress pretty well into a book; the large amount of description *is* unnecessary.
215 215) <j-invariant> 22:55 < qfr> How am I supposed to develop software in Haskell if I can't even prepare my projects in UML?! It seems like an impossible task. <j-invariant> HAHA [...] <j-invariant> this is amazing, like meeting a Mormon or something

238 238) <zzo38> ais523: Maybe it is better, because I don't think the octopus will live very well in the tree. But the difference is that the Internet is lying and you cannot see such things; you could make modified picture, though, in order to lie more clearly, at least.
239 239) <ais523> gah, why does lose keep winning?
240 240) <oerjan> (the former is a very deep theorem, i'd have had to read the whole book to understand it, so i didn't.)

257 257) <zzo38> If you want to use TeX formats invented by Christians, use Plain TeX. However, I do not think the religion of its author is a good way to decide what to use. I decide to use Plain TeX for its own reasons.
258 258) <elliott> lol @ closed character set standard <elliott> "What does this codepoint represent?" "Nobody knows."
259 259) [on DNA Maze] <ais523> it requires more thought than Vorpal seems to be capable of

308 308) <elliott> A priori one cannot say that post hoc ergo propter hoc the diminishing returns would give; yet under quid pro quo one can agglutinate fabula and sujet into vagrancies untold. <elliott> See? I'm intellectual.

394 394) <Sgeo_> Something about faiing a asanity check <Sgeo_> sanity <Sgeo_> faliling <Sgeo_> failing

396 396) <olsner> as always in sweden everything goes to a fixed pattern: thursday is queueing at systembolaget to get beer and schnaps, friday is pickled herring, schnaps and dancing the frog dance around the phallos, saturday is dedicated to being hung over

404 404) <NihilistDandy> elliott: His mouse obeys the law of the excluded middle :/
405 405) <Phantom_Hoover> I go to clean up the shrapnel from a teabag and you're discussing the definition of god out of nowhere.
406 406) <d1ffe7e45e interpreter> The interpreter uses an unbounded tape size, but due to technical limitations will stop being unbounded if the tap size reaches 2^63 cells.
407 407) <Sgeo> Will anyone be irritated if I tend to disconnect and reconnect a lot? [...] <oerjan> we _almost_ have an established policy that bots will be banned it they do that. which means we might have to administer a turing test to sgeo, and that could get ugly.
408 408) <Phantom_Hoover> oerjan, little do you realise that everything you say and do is part of that great monad tutorial we call life.
409 409) <ais523> Phantom_Hoover: nope, I removed . from the current directory
410 410) <oklopol> [...] only the hamster's nervous system was tortured. although probably torturing a large logical gate constitutes a horrible thing to do if it comes in a cute container.
411 411) <Phantom_Hoover> pikhq, living in the future sucks. <Phantom_Hoover> The past just keeps coming up to us and trying to make us feel guilty.

415 415) <monqy> it was a wonderful dream <monqy> i died in it <monqy> that's how it started
416 416) * Sgeo mutters about broken toilets <Sgeo> #toilet is useless <monqy> is #toilet even a thing <Sgeo> I'm looking for help with toilets
417 417) <Sgeo> Dear eHow: Please don't assume that my toilet works like that <Sgeo> Or, at least, my toilet looks different
418 418) <oklofok> mixing drinks together is like taking all of mozart's works and listening to all of them at once <oklofok> and in general a drink - and most foods - are kind like taking a song and then just taking the average of the notes and listening to it for three minutes. <oklofok> olsner: the point is you don't have to be the composer yourself <oklofok> not everyone knows what sequences of drinks taste the best
419 419) <oklofok> drinks should come in long long pipes that drip liquid at varying speeds, and you shouldn't just casually taste to them, you should really try to understand what the artist (the canposer?) was trying to convey when making the drink <oklofok> olsner: well you know i'm a genius. anyway i like how food works tho, because it has both the element of composing and choice, it's kind of like an rpg really
420 420) <Madk> #%%:]__t�# <Madk> do you see that <Madk> that is great progress taking place

423 423) <fizzie> elliott: You have become the very thing you fought for!
424 424) <fizzie> Deewiant: Well, I guess you could argue so. But to me a it's not a real clobbering if you can still tell there was something that got clobbered.
425 425) <Taneb> Turned out he got recursion, he just didn't get the return statement
426 426) <SgeoN1> No nasty sounds for a while now. Going to turn off and on and see if the numbers get worse.
427 427) * Sgeo is risking massive forest fires <Sgeo> The bacon is worth it
428 428) <augur> ive been in #haskell and #agda primarily, recently <Phantom_Hoover> So is #agda now full of dependently-typed gay sex?
429 429) <oklopol> you know that thing in the movies where they put a pillow on someone's face and try to suffocate them <oklopol> that doesn't work. <oklopol> we tried that with my ex once, but we just couldn't kill each other that way
430 430) <fizzie> The zipWith Camel, a famous World War 1 era airplane.

434 434) <NihilistDandy> MY CONTINUITY <NihilistDandy> MY FANFICTION <NihilistDandy> RUINED
435 435) <itidus20> to assume that someone can be described by a rule without exception... is to assume they are omnipotent <oklopol> for instance stones are omnipotent, as they don't do anything, without exception
436 436) <oklofok> god created the natural numbers, the rationals were done by man and the work was finally completed (topologically) by satan himself
437 437) <Gregor> I have a WRT120N <fizzie> Gregor: The WRT160NL has 40 units more of... stuff. Plus an L.
438 438) <fizzie> There's that saying that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. [...] <Taneb> You've just gave me a different result [...] <fizzie> It's always insane to expect different results, even when it's likely to occur.
439 439) <Taneb> Someone with that sort of grasp of logic shouldn't be allowed anything more computationally powerful than a plastic spoon
440 440) <Taneb> That offers me some social standing, feudal system wise
441 441) <oklopol> interestingly enough, go is a second player win <oklopol> chess is also first player win <oklopol> tennis, interestingly enough, is always a draw.
442 442) <Taneb> Look, I often walk my dog through a field with cows in it. And I punched myself in the face once.
443 443) <Sgeo> I'm having nostalgia for when we could see the glass from the floor
444 444) <NihilistDandy> The Russian's emblem was the hammer and sickle, not the fist and other fist
445 445) <fizzie> Deewiant: So you... reverse the byte order manually, but then call ntohl too? <Deewiant> fizzie: The host might be big-endian!
446 446) <elliott> God, I sure do hate Apple and their header files that only include the functions they're specified to.
447 447) <elliott> Do one better! Pretend to be an idiot until YOU DIE.
448 448) <Taneb> So... God has jizzed on everything? <oklopol> have you even READ the bible?
449 449) <elliott_> Vorpal: Won't be slower than Python ;-) <Vorpal> elliott_, yeah but that is like saying a T-Ford going down a hill won't be slower than a bicycle uphill on a bumpy road :P
450 450) <Taneb> This staircase is very good for correcting people's opininons about communism
451 451) <monqy> rest in peace lambdabot???? <ais523> monqy: it'll probably be back later <monqy> nap in peace
452 452) <Vorpal> ais523, how are we supposed to guess before you tell us unless you give us more hints?
453 453) <ais523> 99% OF USES OF STRDUP ARE ILLEGAL!

459 459) <itidus20> It's ok guys. I am doing what I can to keep my psyche and ego surviving. All the while the threat of ww3 looms, the mortality of family and friends(loved ones?) and sooner or llater my own mortality.
460 460) <NihilistDandy> Capitalism is a cancer. But I'm a smoker, anyway, so...
461 461) <itidus20> Game theory is not a perfect tool for analyzing video games. <itidus20> Nash failed to create a "video game theory"
462 462) <itidus20> australia kicks ass <itidus20> we have kangaroos and DMM and isn't afraid of anything
463 463) <Sgeo> My memory passed <monqy> rest in peace sgeos memory
464 464) <monqy> cigaretes and drunking "lame highs for lame people" <oerjan> yeah if it doesn't make you go crazy and shoot at people, it's not worth it. take it from a norwegian.

470 470) <monqy> beautiful summer / fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck / fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

483 483) <Phantom_Hoover> Oh god. <Phantom_Hoover> I've become a metallurgy hipster.
484 484) <Phantom_Hoover> You realise the micromanagement it took to make quintopia encrust my silver throne with emeralds rather than a jug?
485 485) <NihilistDandy> Having only been Catholic in the sense of being baptized that way, I still really like all their silly arcana <NihilistDandy> Judaism has them beat, of course <NihilistDandy> I almost converted just so I could look at my roommate's books
486 486) <ais523> it's probably the same people who were trying to organise gangs of shoplifters as some sort of complex protest against the government's economic policy
487 487) <fizzie> I suck at the gravitron, I have survived something like 15 seconds in it at most.
488 488) <itidus20> anyway, notational systems are a function of the euclidean plane

495 495) <zzo38> Pythagoras was running away and he reached a field of beans, but he didn't want to step on them so he let those guys chasing him to kill him instead.
496 496) <elliott> What does "life" actually mean, anyway; it seems to mean "this thing that's infinitely greater than all my actual hobbies that I do all the time because I rule"
497 497) <itidus20> well, you have bested me <zzo38> itidus20: Yes.
498 498) <itidus20> now theodore seuss is dead... so screw him
499 499) <zzo38> What is miff-muffered moof? <itidus20> that's a tough question
500 500) <itidus20> software patents strike again <ais523_> that's got to be at least three times, now <ais523_> are they out yet?
501 501) <itidus20> like i could ask how many "petals" are there on each of the "flowers" on this coffee mug i just made a drink with <itidus20> but that would be NP hard I think
502 502) <itidus20> combinatronics seems to be the mathematics chasing buddha's tail <itidus20> yeah.. he was a smart monkey that buddha
503 503) <elliott> IM FIST IN HEAD AND DONT KNOW TO SLEEP??????
504 504) <elliott> I MIGHT BECOME GHOST
505 505) <Phantom_Hoover> I gave her the Noblesse Oblige rooms. <Phantom_Hoover> She was happy with them even when they were behind 2 locked doors and a floodgate and full of water.
506 506) <Phantom_Hoover> On further reflection, I think I did manage to miss winter and spring altogether. <Phantom_Hoover> This does explain the goblin siege I had in autumn.
507 507) <Phantom_Hoover> A possessed soapmaker: the most ridiculous thing? <Phantom_Hoover> OH YES YOU JUST HAD TO CLAIM THE WORKSHOP I SET ASIDE FOR STRAND EXTRACTION YOU BASTARD <Phantom_Hoover> I SWEAR IF ANY OF THAT ADAMANTINE GOES MISSING YOU'RE GETTING SOME HIGH-QUALITY ROOMS
508 508) <ais523> (Enigma is two games; one is solving Enigma puzzles, the other is working out how to represent things as Enigma puzzles, preferably with the minimal amount of lua and player-hidden information possible)
509 509) <itidus20> that shit adds up. have you ever dropped a math problem in the toilet and got an answer back? yeah... it adds up
510 510) <elliott_> I hope in the future people curse me for creating such a shitty protocol.
511 511) <Taneb> Maybe if you try diplomacy. <Taneb> Pointy steel diplomacy
512 512) <oklopol> i started running and smoking <oklopol> i love my lungs the way they are so trying to balance them out
513 513) <Phantom_Hoover> I didn't realise nickel apparently can't be shaped into a screw because of some fundamental feature of dwarven physics.
514 514) <evincar> elliott_: I don't see a difference between a function taking a function as an argument, and some composition of those functions.
515 515) <monqy> this reminds me of a time where this guy made up a pretend language that was in his fantasy world and then roleplayed as someone from his fantasy world who used the language and then tried to talk to me about the language
516 516) <Taneb> I think it's fizzie against everyone atm <Taneb> AND EVERYONE IS WINNING <Taneb> EXCEPT FIZZIE

518 518) <fizzie> That's the stupidest thing I've heard all morning. (Though I did wake up five minutes ago, so I haven't had a chance to hear very much.) <fizzie> The "Why are you still asleep? I told the cat to wake you up." comment does come pretty close, though.
519 519) <monqy> mmm these music samples are still so tasteful
520 520) <monqy> im sampling ultra hip holiday <monqy> hes the boogie woogie santa clause <monqy> switching to oktoberfest <monqy> yes i would love to shop to this
521 521) <monqy> im hungary too...but cnnot eat until hours
522 522) <monqy> i am out of all the fame loops <monqy> and the australien soap opera loops <monqy> so much loop / s omcuh
523 523) <Vorpal> elliott_, oh they are people known in the ruby community? <elliott_> Vorpal: Uh... you mean Hannah Montana? <Vorpal> elliott_, yeah. And Zed Shaw. Either they are that or they come from popular culture.
524 524) <Vorpal> ais523, how can TAEB take too long? It is turn based. As long as it isn't taking like several minutes per move it is acceptable! <ais523> Vorpal: it gets boring waiting for it
525 525) <fungot> elliott__: my fnord into normal life was a painful and difficult process. [...]
526 526) <fizzie> They're (according to current plans/rumours) going to release a grand total of approximately 1.1 MeeGo devices; the N9, plus the N950 "developers only" phone, which I'm counting as 0.1 because (even though it is a MeeGo device) it's not going to actually be released.
527 527) <monqy> game where you flip a coin but it's really really big
528 528) <NihilistDandy> Also Perl, but I don't really consider that a programming language so much as a really heavy implementatino of awk
529 529) <elliott> we need more films aimed at the lucrative irc nerd demographic
530 530) <Phantom_Hoover> I keep asking random people for "friendship <thing>" and it's crippling
531 531) <zzo38> I think Perl is a programming language too. [...]
532 532) <elliott> Deewiant: How do you go through life without seeing at least one gaping anus, that's what I want to know
533 533) <Sgeo> Maybe I should try to learn Scala instead of Ruby <elliott> I will boil your veins. <Sgeo> Which is less bad? <elliott> Probably Scala, but I don't want you learning languages.
534 534) <fizzie> I tend to debase64 with perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 'print decode_base64("...");', because at least PERL stands for "PERL ein't-no ruddy-poo lol-GNU".
535 535) <Phantom_Hoover> FFS, building a perpetual motion machine should not be this hard.
536 536) <Phantom_Hoover> Hmm, I really need to institute dwarven birth control.
537 537) <Phantom_Hoover> Intake flooded with magma. <Phantom_Hoover> Reactor connected. <Phantom_Hoover> Pumps active. <Phantom_Hoover> YES IT'S WORKING
538 538) <fizzie> "Do a sea monster while whatever."
539 539) <Patashu> But I mean, why fix it if it ain't broke? Except now it is
540 540) <Phantom_Hoover> The fact that the elves will be happy with this will hopefully be counteracted by the fact that I plan to drop them into the magma cistern.
541 541) <Phantom_Hoover> I'm sacrificing the animals, then I'm going to bed.
542 542) <Phantom_Hoover> Yeah, Bashir, just sit there drinking, rather than diagnosing the carpenter mauled in that tragic bonobo accident.
543 543) <CakeProphet> monqy: help how do I use lambdabot to send messages to people. [...around half an hour later...] <CakeProphet> @messages <lambdabot> quicksilver said 1y 2m 18d 19h 54m 29s ago: you use @tell
544 544) <oerjan> theorem prover yada yada halting problem.
545 545) <Vorpal> elliott, it is typical of you <elliott> Vorpal: so are most things I say
546 546) <elliott> well, oerjan has a lot of opinions on this, so I'll hand it over to him
547 547) <fungot> elliott_: it's a machine that looks like you!
548 548) <elliott_> now that we've cleared that up let us hug fungot = <fungot> elliott_: let's not start that again."
549 549) <Phantom_Hoover> You mean it'd be Tau Zero but without the spaceship?
550 550) <Phantom_Hoover> OK, making myself emergency doctor on the advice of IRC.
551 551) <elliott> help me i am so alone :( <monqy> new computer good enough to simulate real parents

553 553) <itidus20> indirect addressing is a facile and inebrious kind of instruction which should be whomped away by languages
554 554) <fungot> elliott: mr president, commissioner, i fully accept that description when it comes to human rights. yes, with an average fat content of chocolate, and we are using double standards! we all know that under present legislation and also in relation to standardization bodies. if i do not want.
555 555) <fizzie> Isn't "strip nomic" just another word for all dating, though?
556 556) <ais523> this strikes me as probably better than a singularity, because you can't trust a random AI, but you can probably trust olsner
557 557) <Phantom_Hoover> It is like the Holocaust but with Nazis.
558 558) <ais523> oh no, I think we've managed to mix three metaphors in a way that actually makes sense
559 559) <Patashu> dangit I need someone who knows the answers to my problems instantly and is always around for me! <Patashu> I need.....an adult ;_;

562 562) <Gregor> Phantom_Hoover: Sort of a monadic human centipede.
563 563) <elliott> When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a monad.
564 564) <monqy> one time I tried cpp programming ​ <monqy> it was hellish ​ <monqy> maybe I should try again
565 565) <fungot> CakeProphet: mr president, in the best egyptian judicial traditions has now been put off to friday. but i want my money back'. we know it generally deals with major infrastructure projects which could form part of the emergency package for korea, on christmas eve, in the interests of consumers and the environment of gmos.
566 566) <oklopol> king is something women are better at than men
567 567) <Taneb> Just goes to show, the Beatles are more interesting than green vegetables.
568 568) <elliott> Vorpal: who needs cars when you can walk to latvia
569 569) [from 2009] <fizzie> That's confusing. I have been indoctrinated to believe W|A, but on the other hand it's hard to unbelieve a book with such a ridiculously impressive name as "Handbook of physical testing of paper, Volume 2".
570 570) <monqy> in the past few minutes I tried remembering what my dream last night was, but instead remembered I didn't sleep
571 571) <itidus20> what is nice about a pebble is that you can process it with your brain as a number by simply looking at it
572 572) <Taneb> I think this has taught us one thing. We can't teach itidus20 lambda calculus by comittee
573 573) <Sgeo> Can you build the ... why wouldn't you be able to, just and all the computables
574 574) <shachaf> elliott: GHC bug? Come on, it's the parentheses. <shachaf> The more parentheses you add, the closer it is to LISP, and therefore the more dynamically-typed.

579 579) <fizzie> One reasonable approach for the image->color case could be to take the mean (possibly in the RGB space, it doesn't have the hue discontinuity problem) of the most likely Gaussian distribution to have yielded the image pixels, considering each pixel as an independent sample. <fizzie> Wait, that'd just be the mean. Never mind.
580 580) <Gregor> Hulu's movie selection is like MST3K without the MST3K characters.
581 581) <Gregor> Let us discuss the correct procedure for converting LP -> FLAC <fizzie> The correct procedure is: you put the LP into a flatbed scanner, scan it as a Windows .bmp file, and then rename that file to .flac.
582 582) <tswett> Come to think of it, I've praised you a little too effusively. I'm not *that* pleased. If you'll permit me to compensate slightly... <tswett> elliott: fuck you. <tswett> There. Perfect. Carry on.
583 583) <myndzi> lol :(
584 584) <Gregor> But whereas the Zune UI makes one think "I want to kill myself", the Windows CE UI makes one think "I want to kill myself, but first kill my parents as punishment for bringing into this world someone who would one day own a Windows CE device."

604 604) <oklopol> but i guess (x + y)^n = (x^2 + 2xy + y^2)(x^2 + 2xy + y^2)...(x^2 + 2xy + y^2) if n is even, (x + y)^n = (x^2 + 2xy + y^2)(x^2 + 2xy + y^2)...(x^2 + 2xy + y^2)(x + y) is as good a fundamental theorem as any
605 605) <oklopol> so you are doing for compilers what imperative programming did for functional programming
606 606) <fizzie> Spacegoat is the network-operations-optimized-for-latency-of-minutes-or-hours-due-to-light-speed-limits variant of scapegoat, to be used when you need to check out some code from the Mars colony. <fizzie> (I'm pretty sure we'll have established a Mars colony by the time scapegoat rolls out.)

615 615) <monqy> bad people have feelings too <monqy> but they're bad <monqy> so it's okay
616 616) <fizzie> It's a bit like a regular monowheel, except when you brake too hard, instead of you going around and around inside the wheel, the (1100lb) wheel rolls over you.

627 627) <fizzie> If you jump a car from a ramp and hit the wall of a building, in midair, you tend to get ejected up and fly to the sky-ceiling, then slowly slide at that height to one corner of the world; then you land, make a complicated spinning-around thing for a while, and then explode. <fizzie> Also probably works in real life?

632 632) <ais523> it's not a list of /all/ interesting esolangs, btw; otherwise you can take the first command from the first esolang, the second from the second, the third from the third, etc, then add 1 to all of them <ais523> and you get a new interesting esolang <ais523> diagonal principle…
633 633) <oklopol> i did applied fisheries research when i was little <oklopol> got some results too but i ate them before i could publish them

649 649) <ais523> Just about all females often feel that exactly why all Hollywood stars common maintain its brightness as Tom in spite of frantic operate routine and large operate pressure from the skin. What do you think that they have got sufficient time to observe all attractiveness strategies and tips that his grandmother utilized to abide by?
650 650) <Phantom__Hoover> (I'm not really sure what that explains but nor am I sure what I'm explaining, so it cancels out.)
