4 2009-10-27.txt:02:48:18: <Sgeo> I can't remember the platform. Adobe Atmosphere? That unknown nightclub thingy? Flatland?
5 2010-05-16.txt:02:22:31: <pikhq> Sgeo_2: I'm saying I liked it better when it was called Tcl.
6 2010-08-27.txt:22:25:41: <Sgeo> TCL isn't an esolang?

13 2010-09-17.txt:23:16:44: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> And what was the first Sgep message?

19 2010-09-17.txt:23:20:41: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Eventually remembered Sgeo's password, I think
20 2010-09-17.txt:23:20:56: <Vorpal> Sgeo|FsckThatCli, what was esoshell?

22 2010-09-17.txt:23:21:51: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Hmm, so I was on #esoteric before then

28 2010-09-17.txt:23:23:52: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Inspiration for PSOX
29 2010-09-17.txt:23:24:13: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Story of the name PSOX:

31 2010-09-17.txt:23:24:45: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Hear complains about the name being too similar, so go with phonetics: P-ESO-X = P S O X
32 2010-09-17.txt:23:25:20: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Well, P-ES-O-X I guess
33 2010-09-17.txt:23:26:13: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> What do you mean, I don't ask too many questions?

35 2010-09-17.txt:23:31:16: <Vorpal> Sgeo|FsckThatCli, you asked quite a few. Hm should do questions / total lines
36 2010-09-17.txt:23:31:53: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> What's that LIMIT 20 for?
37 2010-09-17.txt:23:33:28: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> How about fractions for nonbots?

48 2010-09-17.txt:23:43:24: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> What's Sgep's question ratio?
49 2010-09-17.txt:23:43:29: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> By itself?
50 2010-09-17.txt:23:44:18: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> We should look for days where for some reason, questioning rations for people, at least one person, are particularly high
51 2010-09-17.txt:23:44:39: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> I think today's, for example, is a bit high?
52 2010-09-17.txt:23:44:45: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Except I'm not me

72 2010-09-18.txt:00:00:25: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Well, Erlang and Prolog are kind of, sort of related

75 2010-09-18.txt:00:01:27: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Haskell is a language that everyone should learn. FOr some weird reason, I really, really want to just TEACH it to someone

100 2010-09-18.txt:00:10:55: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Well, that's interesting
101 2010-09-18.txt:00:11:01: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Maybe I should learn about Coq
102 2010-09-18.txt:00:11:27: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> I vaguely feel like I'm switching my love back to Haskell
103 2010-09-18.txt:00:12:04: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> The thing that drove me away from Haskell last time was things like zippers. It should not be a headache to implement things that are easy imperitively
104 2010-09-18.txt:00:12:46: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> What's the equiv for SQLite?
105 2010-09-18.txt:00:13:29: <fizzie> Sgeo|FsckThatCli: "Do it in the client app" is, I think, pretty much it.
106 2010-09-18.txt:00:13:59: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> I think SQLite has triggers though>?
107 2010-09-18.txt:00:14:55: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Someone should work out if it's TC
108 2010-09-18.txt:00:16:03: <fizzie> Sgeo|FsckThatCli: It has a bit nonstandard implementation of triggers; you could get top-N-per-month with those, assuming the triggers are allowed to write to other tables. It still won't be a single query, though.
109 2010-09-18.txt:00:16:21: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> Can triggers trigger triggers?
110 2010-09-18.txt:00:17:04: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> quintopia, are you guessing?
111 2010-09-18.txt:00:17:36: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> I don't get it. is alise suggesting that Lisp isn't easy to understand?
112 2010-09-18.txt:00:17:53: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> I think I can read Lisp better than Factor
113 2010-09-18.txt:00:18:33: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> I'm not thinking about solutions to the problem
114 2010-09-18.txt:00:18:47: <Sgeo|FsckThatCli> I'm wondering if programming in SQLite/Triggers would be interesting

157 2012-07-03.txt:18:12:07: <Sgeo> My impression of Tcl so far is that it's probably a very suitable language for a "malicious code that looks like innocent code" contest
158 2012-07-03.txt:18:21:48: <Sgeo> Richard Stallman hates Tcl?
159 2012-07-03.txt:18:34:21: <Sgeo> Phantom_Hoover, yes, because as far as I know Tcl isn't proprietary
160 2012-07-03.txt:19:04:40: <Sgeo> "F'rinstance, Tcl's support for lambda expressions is weak to nonexistant; OTOH, command prefixes as higher-order functions work rather well."
161 2012-07-03.txt:20:20:41: <Sgeo> I think that's a good description of Tcl in general.

168 2012-07-12.txt:02:48:53: <Sgeo> I mean, in that regard, Tcl and Lisp are rather close
169 2012-07-12.txt:07:45:22: <Sgeo_> There's at least two such things for Tcl
170 2012-07-12.txt:19:05:30: <Sgeo_> pikhq_, are there any good reason for Tcl arrays to not be first-class?
171 2012-07-12.txt:19:06:01: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: Yes: Tcl "arrays" are nothing more than variables with a certain class of names.
172 2012-07-12.txt:19:06:55: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: In *principle*, Tcl could be implemented without them actually existing. The array proc would just have to do more work.
173 2012-07-12.txt:19:07:50: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: Tcl arrays are hash tables.
174 2012-07-12.txt:19:13:15: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: Everything in Tcl is a string. Some commands happen to treat strings in a particular way. The Tcl implementation stores strings in a format more convenient for those commands as an implementation detail.
175 2012-07-12.txt:19:14:08: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: Even friggin' *numbers* aren't really first-class in Tcl. They're just strings containing digits.
176 2012-07-12.txt:19:19:02: <Sgeo_> Apparently Tcl 8.6's OO is based on XOTcl
177 2012-07-12.txt:19:20:29: <Sgeo_> Why would it be a pain to use straight if it's XOTcl-inspired? Missing a few XOTcl features, but is XOTcl a pain?
178 2012-07-12.txt:19:32:08: <Sgeo_> pikhq_, why does the Tcl community love Metakit so much, and why aren't there Metakit bindings into languages other than Python Tcl and I forget the third?
179 2012-07-12.txt:19:33:26: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: It's friggin' handy being able to stick a Tcl app into a single binary.
180 2012-07-12.txt:19:34:47: <Sgeo_> I think the Tcl app in a single binary thing is one of the things drawing me to Tcl actually
181 2012-07-12.txt:19:40:45: <Sgeo_> "Tcllib has an approximatley yearly release schedule. Version 1.10 has been released September 12, 2007."
182 2012-07-12.txt:19:47:24: <Sgeo_> Would Snit need to exist if there was one Tcl OO system from the start?
183 2012-07-12.txt:19:48:03: <Sgeo_> If there was one Tcl OO system, there wouldn't be competing systems to treat identically
184 2012-07-12.txt:20:19:59: <Sgeo_> pikhq, is it fair to say that it's impossible to have an object capability system in Tcl because any unique object could be brute-forced?
185 2012-07-12.txt:20:22:53: <Sgeo_> pikhq_, is there a reason tcllib has two different OO libraries?
186 2012-07-12.txt:20:24:22: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: If it's a pure Tcl library, it can go in Tcllib. There's not much vetting for redundancy.
187 2012-07-13.txt:01:04:38: <Sgeo_> pikhq, why are there no Tcl "data structures" that map cleanly to a bunch of Tcl commands?
188 2012-07-13.txt:01:04:57: <Sgeo_> Lists are good for one Tcl command, thus making construction with [list ... ] simple
189 2012-07-13.txt:01:45:42: <Sgeo_> Why am I still looking at Tcl instead of Lisp?
190 2012-07-13.txt:05:11:24: <Sgeo_> "Tcl is formally just as powerful since everything is a string, but it is usually not practical to have Tcl code take Tcl scripts apart and modified, since there are few facilities available out of the box for handling Tcl scripts at a higher level than as a string of characters (there are packages for higher level handling, however)."
191 2012-07-13.txt:05:18:46: <pikhq> Sgeo_: Incidentally, all valid Tcl scripts are also valid Tcl lists.
192 2012-07-13.txt:05:20:30: <pikhq> Sgeo_: Tcl metaprogramming eventually gets kinda weird.
193 2012-07-13.txt:05:22:58: <Sgeo_> So why am I looking at Tcl? I think the whole starpack and Tk and event loop thing is drawing me in
194 2012-07-21.txt:05:38:56: <Sgeo_> Geez, I can't even write a simple Tcl script without encountering a bug which static typing would have caught
195 2012-07-21.txt:05:49:15: <Sgeo_> Tcl does seem nice for simple scripting
196 2012-07-21.txt:05:50:16: <Sgeo_> Is Tcl more consistent than Bash?
197 2012-07-21.txt:05:50:26: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: http://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.5/TclCmd/Tcl.htm says yes.
198 2012-07-21.txt:05:52:18: <Sgeo_> I think I'm falling back in love with Tcl
199 2012-07-22.txt:08:01:45: <Sgeo_> I find it remarkably easy to write one very trivial script in Tcl, and suddenly I like it?
200 2012-07-22.txt:08:45:18: <Sgeo_> "Don't give your wish scripts the same name as any of the widgets provided by Tk. It will cause problems with wish trying to apply options for those widgets to your program as a whole. Try the file name example.tcl."
201 2012-07-22.txt:09:58:31: <Sgeo_> Seeing Ruby's Fibers seemed cool. Then zzo38's thing for Haskell. Then Tcl.
202 2012-07-22.txt:21:57:55: <Sgeo_> Suddenly I'm slightly sad that Tcl doesn't have infinite-length strings
203 2012-07-22.txt:21:59:25: <Sgeo_> I still think that Tcl is interesting
204 2012-07-22.txt:22:01:54: <Sgeo_> I sort of like how Tcl, if someone wants to do byref stuff, requires explicitness on both sides
205 2012-07-22.txt:22:03:58: * Sgeo_ vaguely wonders if upvar has other uses in Tcl
206 2012-07-22.txt:22:07:32: <Sgeo_> On the other hand, calling such a function in Tcl is less syntactically ugly than in C#
207 2012-07-22.txt:22:10:03: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: upvar can seek up to an arbitrary point in the stack. With some nasty, nasty hacking you could get it so you could pretend to have dynamic scope in Tcl.
208 2012-07-22.txt:22:13:20: <pikhq_> Sgeo_: proc bar {set x foo; foo};proc foo {puts $x};bar in a dynamic-scoped Tcl would work.
209 2012-07-22.txt:22:21:44: <Sgeo_> The corresponding feature in Tcl is probably more frequently used
210 2012-07-22.txt:22:35:01: <Sgeo_> Tcl seems to be more introspectiony, I guess?
211 2012-07-23.txt:02:45:02: <Sgeo_> The Tcl solution to "I don't like global variables" seems to be namespaces
212 2012-07-23.txt:02:59:00: <Sgeo_> I'm wondering if Tcl's love of global variables in namespaces should be enough to keep me away or not
213 2012-07-23.txt:03:01:55: <Sgeo_> I wonder how easy/difficult it would be to do some sort of lens thing in Tcl
214 2012-07-24.txt:02:07:34: <Sgeo_> Eek, I think Tcl is making me think in terms of global variables more :/
215 2012-07-24.txt:03:27:11: <Sgeo_> Tcl's tracing lets you run code when a specified variable is read from or written to or unset
216 2012-07-24.txt:03:29:17: <Sgeo_> Or, well, some thingy like tcllib
217 2012-07-24.txt:06:39:07: <pikhq> Sgeo_: Basically, variable tracing in Tcl is on par with ptrace for Linux binaries. It'll work, but it's Nasty™.
218 2012-07-24.txt:12:22:57: <Sgeo_> `run tclsh
219 2012-07-29.txt:00:45:05: <Sgeo_> Annoying thing about Tcl: Libraries that use callbacks can take the callbacks in several different forms, some of which are harder to deal with than others
220 2012-07-29.txt:00:45:18: <Sgeo_> The irc package in tcllib takes scripts
221 2012-07-29.txt:05:03:06: <Sgeo_> The irc package in tcllib is disgustingly low-level
222 2012-07-29.txt:12:44:34: <Sgeo_> At least in TCL
223 2012-07-30.txt:09:26:23: * Sgeo__ vaguely wonders what metaprogramming is like in Lua compared to Tcl
224 2012-07-30.txt:10:25:10: <Sgeo__> I just helped someone in #tcl
225 2012-07-30.txt:14:30:10: <Sgeo__> I am beginning to hate the Tcl ecosystem
226 2012-07-30.txt:15:07:24: <Sgeo__> nortti, I was forced to use an obsolete tDOm because I couldn't get TclXml working with tclkit and I couldn't find a newish tdom.kit
227 2012-08-01.txt:14:14:58: * Sgeo ponders automatic resource management in Tcl
228 2012-08-01.txt:14:15:25: <Sgeo> Current opinion about suckiest thing in Tcl: The lack of said resource management.
229 2012-08-01.txt:21:08:32: <Sgeo> I should try writing a general using proc for Tcl
230 2012-08-01.txt:21:18:34: <Sgeo> Unlike many languages I look at, I actually wrote a program to do something useful in Tcl.
231 2012-08-02.txt:12:55:31: <Sgeo_> Whenever I look at Tcl, I keep thinking that I should be looking at Lisp
232 2012-08-02.txt:12:57:53: <Sgeo_> http://wiki.tcl.tk/13410
233 2012-08-02.txt:12:58:34: <Sgeo_> As interesting as most of that is, "OMG YOU DON'T NEED TO CALL ANY FUNCTIONS TO SERIALIZE TCL DATA STRUCTURES" is ... not at all impressive
234 2012-08-02.txt:13:03:27: <Sgeo_> Bash has arrays? Are they like Tcl's arrays?
235 2012-08-02.txt:13:03:46: <Sgeo_> You do need to call something to serialize Tcl's arrays since they're not first-class
236 2012-08-02.txt:13:04:30: <Sgeo_> Fine, here's a good difference between Bash and Tcl: Bash has ``, Tcl has []
237 2012-08-02.txt:19:26:59: <Sgeo_> shachaf, what's your opinion of Tcl?
238 2012-08-03.txt:02:16:17: <Sgeo_> Smalltalk and Tcl at least
239 2012-08-03.txt:02:16:28: <Sgeo_> Although the Tcl ones probably aren't well-maintained
240 2012-08-03.txt:12:07:26: <Sgeo__> TclTalk seems fun
241 2012-08-03.txt:12:16:20: <Sgeo__> Ugh, it uses a non-Tcl-standard way of initializing variables in namespaces
242 2012-08-03.txt:12:17:48: <Sgeo__> Bluh, the single-dispatchness of Tcl OO systems in general is striking me again
243 2012-08-03.txt:13:02:55: <Sgeo__> Just because I like TclTalk doesn't mean I should start looking at Smalltalk again, does it
244 2012-08-03.txt:13:19:37: <Sgeo__> Taneb, you should learn Tcl
245 2012-08-03.txt:13:20:26: <Sgeo__> http://www.tcl.tk/
246 2012-08-03.txt:14:53:24: <Sgeo__> I think I know how to give Tcl CL-style conditions.
247 2012-08-03.txt:18:11:02: <Sgeo__> Hmm, C can be compiled to LLVM, right? So Tcl?
248 2012-08-03.txt:18:12:03: <pikhq_> Sgeo__: There's already some work on Tcl in NaCl, BTW.
249 2012-08-03.txt:18:13:47: <Sgeo__> Tcl > Javascript?
250 2012-08-03.txt:20:30:00: <Sgeo__> pikhq, what do you think of this? (In #tcl person who'd rather see 8.6 released ASAP even if coredumps occur)
251 2012-08-03.txt:21:36:01: <Sgeo> So was thinking Tcl instead of Haskell
252 2012-08-03.txt:21:44:01: <Sgeo> And being told not to try using a seemingly useful Tcl command because it's likely to be buggy, and I might cause a core dump and if that happens, then they'll have to fix it which will delay release
