2 2008-02-12.txt:21:54:50: <ehird> faxathisia: oerjan: its called 'ursala'
3 2008-02-12.txt:21:56:24: <oerjan> ursAla?
4 2008-02-12.txt:22:19:11: * faxathisia *woops* http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/seminar111207.pdf
5 2008-02-12.txt:22:46:32: <olsner> I'm starting to think haskell should grab some features from ursala
6 2008-02-12.txt:23:07:30: -!- SimonRC changed the topic of #esoteric to: HAT!! YOU'RE RUINING MY HAT! Also, http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/manual.pdf
7 2008-02-12.txt:23:10:19: * olsner still learning ursala
8 2008-02-17.txt:15:38:29: <olsner> wow, ursala is really crazy
9 2008-03-07.txt:21:43:42: <SimonRC> have you read about ursala?
10 2008-03-07.txt:21:44:09: <SimonRC> http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/
11 2009-01-31.txt:18:15:13: <SimonRC> ehird: did Ursala inspire that much?
12 2010-01-11.txt:12:51:56: <ais523> hmm, I don't /think/ this is meant to be an esolang, but: http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/sudoku.fun
13 2010-01-11.txt:13:09:56: <zeotrope> "Ursala (UniveRSal Applicative LAnguage) is a functional programming language suitable for scientific and numerical computation"
14 2010-01-11.txt:13:33:17: <ais523> *Ursala
15 2010-01-11.txt:13:47:24: <ais523> "Writing complicated pointer expressions can be error prone even for an experienced user of Ursala. Learning to read the decompiled listings can be a helpful troubleshooting technique."
16 2010-01-11.txt:13:53:36: <ais523> I'll need to write an Underload interp in Ursala some time, I think
17 2010-01-11.txt:15:37:29: <ehirdiphone> ais523: We have discussed and laughed at ursala before
18 2010-01-11.txt:15:39:54: <ais523> ehirdiphone: anyway, Ursala is actually a really interesting lang I think
19 2010-01-11.txt:15:41:59: <ehirdiphone> Oh ursala
20 2010-01-11.txt:15:42:00: <ais523> ehirdiphone: remember, I'm trying to learn Ursala
21 2010-01-11.txt:15:43:40: <ais523> hmm, I think Underlambda compiles into Ursala pretty neatly
22 2010-01-11.txt:15:45:04: <ais523> incidentally, H is an abstraction-inversion in Ursala
23 2010-01-11.txt:15:47:06: <ais523> <Ursala manual> A formal semantics for this operation is best left to compiler developers.
24 2010-01-11.txt:15:48:27: <ehirdiphone> composition is complicated in ursala?
25 2010-01-11.txt:15:56:58: <ehirdiphone> ais523: How powerful is ursalas type system?
26 2010-03-03.txt:15:55:15: <scarf> alise: please stop, you're going to accidentally invent Ursala
27 2010-03-03.txt:15:56:07: <AnMaster> <scarf> alise: please stop, you're going to accidentally invent Ursala <-- Ursala?
28 2010-03-03.txt:15:56:32: <MissPiggy> < AnMaster> <scarf> alise: please stop, you're going to accidentally invent Ursala <-- Ursala? <--- why does have to quote so much?
29 2010-03-03.txt:15:56:45: <alise> AnMaster: Eight Queens in Ursala:
30 2010-03-03.txt:15:57:08: <alise> AnMaster: So I think you should just forget about wanting to know anything about Ursala.
31 2010-03-03.txt:15:58:16: <scarf> alise and I have had endless fun laughing at Ursala
32 2010-03-03.txt:15:59:14: <alise> nothing like Ursala
33 2010-03-03.txt:15:59:27: <scarf> I'd say Ursala tries to imitate some J concepts but fails
34 2010-03-03.txt:15:59:53: <alise> AnMaster: no, ursala
35 2010-03-03.txt:16:01:11: <alise> AnMaster: http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/manual.pdf, http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/
36 2010-03-03.txt:16:02:07: <MissPiggy> is ursala real?
37 2010-03-03.txt:16:02:17: <alise> AnMaster: the other part of ursala
38 2010-03-03.txt:16:03:03: <scarf> single quotes delimit variable names in Ursala, i.e. Ursala "x" is equivalent to Perl $x
39 2010-03-03.txt:16:04:58: <cpressey> I ASK YOU, is it a mere coincidence that BancSTAR was developed for the banking industry *and* the author or Ursala has a degree in finance?
40 2010-05-26.txt:16:55:55: <ais523> heh, Reddit noticed Ursala
41 2010-05-26.txt:17:06:02: <AnMaster> <ais523> heh, Reddit noticed Ursala <--- ?
42 2010-05-26.txt:17:06:54: <ais523> http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/
43 2010-05-26.txt:17:07:51: <ais523> <Deestan> Another important design goal of Ursala was to discourage "code obfuscation" techniques. This can be done elegantly by making sure that all syntactically valid programs are no more readable than their obfuscated counterparts.
44 2010-05-26.txt:17:21:46: <AnMaster> ais523, is that ursala open source?
45 2010-05-26.txt:17:22:21: <ais523> with ursala?
46 2010-05-26.txt:17:22:58: <ais523> in Ursala's VM, everything is written as just lists
47 2010-05-26.txt:17:23:53: <ais523> imagine that you have more complicated pointers like "both the first and second element of a pair"; that contradicts what I just said, but it's possible in Ursala too
48 2010-05-26.txt:17:26:50: <ais523> I am not an expert in Ursala
49 2010-09-05.txt:19:15:16: <alise> Ursala!
50 2010-09-05.txt:19:15:20: <alise> http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/
51 2010-09-05.txt:19:15:21: <cpressey> Ursala!
52 2010-09-05.txt:19:15:22: <ais523> aha, yes Ursala
53 2010-09-05.txt:19:18:09: <cpressey> http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/queen.fun
54 2010-09-05.txt:23:01:59: <cpressey> alise_: I so want that to be an Ursala quine.
55 2010-09-07.txt:21:42:01: <cpressey> So I'm starting to accumulate a distinct set of languages that, despite them wanting me to take them seriously, make me laugh: Falcon, Ursala, and Plain English. BancSTAR might also qualify. This is almost enough to make a list.
56 2010-10-26.txt:01:14:51: <catseye> I gotta say Ursala.
57 2010-10-26.txt:01:16:12: <elliott> Vorpal: http://www.basis.netii.net/ursala/
58 2010-10-26.txt:01:16:34: <elliott> Vorpal: The reference manual is beyond amazing: http://www.basis.netii.net/ursala/manual.pdf
59 2010-10-26.txt:01:23:17: <elliott> Vorpal: (or else isn't actually an ursala expression; dunno)
60 2010-10-26.txt:09:09:12: <ais523> I suppose you could go down the Ursala route
61 2010-10-26.txt:09:24:41: <ais523> Ursala's in the category of "unintentional esolangs", along with things like BancSTAR, and arguably Perl but that's much less extreme
62 2011-01-01.txt:02:33:17: <elliott> ursala
63 2011-01-01.txt:02:34:24: <elliott> Vorpal: http://www.google.co.uk/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=ursala+language&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&redir_esc=&ei=i5IeTeb1EpO6hAf074i3Dg#hl=en&client=safari&pwst=1&rls=en&sa=X&ei=i5IeTaaIGIyIhQfnvIS3Dg&ved=0CBUQvgUoAA&q=ursala+language&nfpr=1&fp=733b49addeb556
64 2011-01-01.txt:02:36:11: <augur> elliott: why does ursala look like line noise?
65 2011-01-01.txt:02:36:19: <elliott> augur: ursala is terrible, do not discuss it
66 2011-01-01.txt:02:37:32: <augur> oh jesus you're right about ursala
67 2011-01-18.txt:15:50:15: <elliott> ais523: this is disturbingly close to Ursala actually :)
68 2011-01-18.txt:15:51:57: <elliott> http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:Ursala i blame ais523
69 2011-01-18.txt:15:52:21: <ais523> Ursala's fun to laugh at at a distance
70 2011-01-18.txt:15:52:57: <elliott> ais523: sometimes, I worry that languages like Ursala are actually more brilliant than all of us ... then I wake up the next day, sober
71 2011-01-18.txt:15:53:17: <elliott> http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Y_combinator#Ursala
72 2011-01-18.txt:15:54:00: <ais523> oh right, I forgot that ursala used double-quotes for lambda variables
73 2011-01-18.txt:15:55:26: <ais523> why does Ursala let you hot-swap fixed-point implementations for use in compiling recursive functions?
74 2011-01-18.txt:15:56:37: <ais523> hmm, TIL that Ursala "x". means the same thing as Haskell \x ->
75 2011-01-18.txt:15:57:54: <ais523> which worryingly implies that Ursala functions don't work quite the same way as mathematical ones
76 2011-01-18.txt:16:04:34: <ais523> elliott: gah no, putting lambda variables in double quotes is an Ursala thing
77 2011-01-18.txt:17:21:14: <ais523> elliott: I just tried to interpret that hash as Ursala
78 2011-01-18.txt:17:21:26: <ais523> and failed, mostly because I don't know Ursala well enough
79 2011-01-31.txt:11:02:54: <ais523> oerjan: I think it's what Ursala does behind the scenes
80 2011-01-31.txt:11:03:10: <ais523> and OK, Ursala's not technically an esolang, but it's still hilarious
81 2011-01-31.txt:19:16:36: <elliott> ais523: i was INSPIRED by ursala
82 2011-01-31.txt:19:17:21: <elliott> you know how at the base of ursala, every object is
83 2011-01-31.txt:19:19:30: <elliott> 11:17:19 <ais523> oerjan: I think it's what Ursala does behind the scenes
84 2011-01-31.txt:19:22:17: <elliott> ais523: how does ursala do naturals? in mine, a list of N []s is N
85 2011-01-31.txt:19:40:50: <elliott> ais523: anyway, I finally understand why ursala requires those explicit casts
86 2011-01-31.txt:19:47:10: <elliott> ais523: I don't understand this, do Ursala functions not compile to the basic object type?
87 2011-01-31.txt:19:48:28: <ais523> that Ursala quote has offended me slightly
88 2011-01-31.txt:19:48:36: <elliott> <elliott> ais523: I don't understand this, do Ursala functions not compile to the basic object type?
89 2011-02-01.txt:01:23:09: <elliott> i only code in ursala, true story
90 2011-02-01.txt:01:24:41: <kfr> "Ursala is an interpreted functional language with some experimental features, intended mainly for text and numerical applications. "
91 2011-02-01.txt:01:25:10: <elliott> ursala is the most fun crazy
92 2011-02-01.txt:02:04:05: <elliott> i should actually write a program in ursala sometime :P
93 2011-02-02.txt:16:06:00: <elliott> nddrylliog: you should get interested in ursala! instant guaranteed obscurity
94 2011-02-02.txt:16:06:49: <elliott> nddrylliog: http://www.basis.netii.net/ursala/manual.pdf
95 2011-02-02.txt:16:07:00: <elliott> ais523 is our resident Ursala know-it-all* fan*
96 2011-03-10.txt:14:36:08: <elliott> I'm thinking maybe Ursala
97 2011-03-10.txt:14:45:49: <ais523> although I imagine it'd be relatively simple in Ursala, actually
98 2011-03-10.txt:14:45:53: <ais523> that is, compared to the rest of Ursala
99 2011-03-10.txt:14:46:12: <elliott> can ursala even do networking?
100 2011-03-27.txt:04:33:50: <elliott> http://www.basis.netii.net/ursala/links.html
101 2011-03-27.txt:04:33:54: <elliott> ursala's links page links to esolang
102 2011-09-01.txt:01:57:28: <ais523> hmm, this is reminding me of Ursala
103 2011-09-01.txt:01:57:47: <CPO\_\bot> ais523: I still think Ursala was actually really interesting
104 2011-11-05.txt:17:54:59: <ais523> (and if you go down the other route, you seem to end up with Ursala)
105 2011-11-05.txt:17:55:23: <elliott> ais523: Ursala has types, sort of :P
106 2011-11-17.txt:14:00:19: <elliott> ais523: what's the recommended cure if you start thinking about how wonderful ursala's data model is?
107 2011-12-28.txt:20:05:56: <ais523> like Ursala
108 2011-12-31.txt:23:29:35: <oerjan> haskela, the monstrous child of haskell and ursala
109 2011-12-31.txt:23:29:53: * Sgeo suddenly remembers that Ursala exists.
110 2012-01-12.txt:08:45:15: <elliott> ursala? :P
111 2012-01-12.txt:08:49:12: <ais523> it's probably only a couple of characters in ursala
112 2012-01-12.txt:08:49:23: <ais523> and only hard to write, because doing so would actually require learning ursala
113 2012-01-12.txt:08:58:49: <elliott> monqy: http://web.archive.org/web/20090113084759/http://www.basis.uklinux.net/ursala/

115 2012-01-12.txt:19:36:12: <olsner> and ursala!
116 2012-02-24.txt:15:21:39: <ais523> # type ursala = 'a list as 'a ;;
117 2012-02-24.txt:15:21:40: <ais523> type ursala = 'a list as 'a
118 2012-11-24.txt:13:00:55: <monqy> elliott: ive seen "both" in ursala but in haskell it is new to me !
119 2012-11-24.txt:13:01:02: <monqy> except in ursala it is just b
120 2012-11-24.txt:13:01:31: <elliott> monqy: but in ursala can you use it to map over both elements
121 2012-11-24.txt:13:01:52: <elliott> you know ursala?
122 2012-11-24.txt:13:02:23: <monqy> but ursala
123 2012-11-24.txt:13:02:35: <shachaf> can ursala compute the sum of a string
124 2012-11-24.txt:13:13:00: <shachaf> monqy: What's ursala?
125 2012-11-24.txt:13:15:09: <monqy> shachaf: you should learn ursala!
126 2012-11-24.txt:13:16:21: <elliott> monqy: sounds less fun than ursala. you should read the manual some more instead
127 2012-12-08.txt:16:47:05: <olsner> and Ursala, though it claims to be a non-esoteric language
128 2012-12-08.txt:16:54:55: <elliott> olsner: i love ursala
129 2012-12-08.txt:16:56:48: <Taneb> I thought Ursala was a disney character
130 2012-12-08.txt:16:57:29: <olsner> https://github.com/gueststar/Ursala/blob/master/contrib/sudoku.fun
131 2012-12-08.txt:17:05:34: <elliott> monqy knows a fair amount of ursala
132 2012-12-08.txt:18:21:01: <olsner> lenses remind me of ursala's pointer expressions
133 2012-12-09.txt:00:55:06: <olsner> I think lens is missing a way to translate ursala pointer expressions into their corresponding lenses
134 2013-02-23.txt:11:56:18: <monqy> i'm getting some ursala-but-taking-itself-less-seriously vibes from some of this "about" stuff
135 2013-02-23.txt:11:57:05: <monqy> remember when i learned some ursala and never bothered to learn the rest? i forgot it all. probably easy to relearn. not going to bother
136 2013-02-23.txt:11:58:04: <shachaf> wait what's ursala
137 2013-02-23.txt:12:00:01: <monqy> i dont think its possible to dislike ursala
138 2013-02-23.txt:12:00:59: <monqy> https://github.com/gueststar/Ursala/ / https://gitorious.org/ursala-manual
139 2013-02-23.txt:12:02:06: <monqy> https://github.com/gueststar/Ursala/tree/master/contrib code examples!!
140 2013-02-23.txt:12:05:24: <monqy> i suggest learning ursala as your next language
141 2013-02-23.txt:12:21:03: <mroman> that's ursala.
142 2013-02-25.txt:14:55:48: <boily> the more I see you all playing with burlesque, the more it reminds me of ursala: lists and numbers and cryptic tense manipulations on them.
143 2013-02-25.txt:20:17:56: <monqy> this is reminding me of ursala
144 2013-02-25.txt:20:18:03: <monqy> hey Sgeo_ did you ever look at ursala
145 2013-03-20.txt:01:15:54: <monqy> wow freefull you know ursala too??
146 2013-03-25.txt:20:44:29: <olsner> not quite as much as ursala programs though
147 2013-08-01.txt:19:05:31: <olsner> boily: also, have you looked at ursala?
