2005-11-15.txt:00:09:59: <cpressey> ok, so... say you have a language for describing deciders... will it always halt? yes, because deciders always halt.  HOWEVER - the problem is - how is it that your language only describes deciders?  how do you know that you can't accidentally describe a Turing machine in your language?  that's the hard part.
2005-11-15.txt:00:16:17: <cpressey> a language-for-describing-pda's
2005-11-15.txt:00:16:35: <calamari> so I need a language-for-describing-deciders
2005-11-15.txt:00:18:01: <cpressey> would be hard to imagine a language-for-describing-fsm's that could itself be described by an fsm
2005-11-24.txt:04:01:44: <calamari> so basically what I was after was a language capable of describing every language that always halts
2005-11-24.txt:04:02:53: <cpressey> that language must also be capable of describing languages that don't halt
2005-11-24.txt:04:13:10: <calamari> let me make sure I understand what you're saying.. are you saying that the language PL-{GOTO} isn't capable of describing all possible deciders?
2005-11-24.txt:04:13:57: <cpressey> no, it is capable of that.  what it's not capable of is describing a decider which simulates some other decider (like a UTM simulates some other TM.)

2007-03-23.txt:14:33:47: <oklopol> i'm pretty sure i had a cooler way of describing problems of that nature... a rubik's cube is hell to describe to a computer in most languages

2007-07-11.txt:01:33:56: <lament> bsmntbombdood: the imperative model includes the concept of "world state". The functional model doesn't (there's no world state in lambda calculus) unless you explicitly introduce it (or arbitrarily declare some value to be the "world state"). For this reason, the imperative model is so convenient for describing processes which change the world state.

2008-02-21.txt:20:58:32: <ehird> ais523: by the way, i learned a disturbing thing yesterday
2008-02-23.txt:23:58:07: <oerjan> there is a section describing those fields too
2008-02-29.txt:20:14:47: <SimonRC> C'mon we need more Christian suicide bombings of human genetic engineering clinics
2008-03-03.txt:18:21:06: <ais523>        instead.   Unfortunately,  the info document describing tar is licensed
2008-03-07.txt:19:38:23: <oklopol> Funge-98 is a class of three real and officially sanctioned programming languages (Unefunge, Befunge, and Trefunge) and provides a paradigm for describing any number of imaginary ones with different topologies and any number of dimensions."
2008-03-08.txt:19:16:10: * SimonRC thinks of a privacy escalation:  pty-grabbing.  If someone runs sudo from a pty, then sudo usually caches their ability to use sudo there for about 5 mins.  There might be a way to exploit this to escalate local to root.
2008-03-09.txt:02:06:26: <ihope> Bingo.
2008-03-10.txt:22:41:32: <ais523> you were describing Continuation Passing Style
2008-03-11.txt:11:39:14: <oklokok> oerjan: verb verbing you verbing motherverber
2008-03-13.txt:21:46:01: <ehird> Bingo.
2008-03-14.txt:02:34:50: <AnMaster> say: {vertical tab, size of number describing size of numbers of dimension, dimension }
2008-03-14.txt:20:51:45: <ehird> AnMaster: bingo
2008-03-15.txt:23:13:54: <ehird> 'use RatsAss;' is a vaguely disturbing line
2008-03-15.txt:23:27:56: <ehird> also, I find the fact that I have to put @EXPORT etc in BEGIN disturbing
2008-03-17.txt:21:55:00: <ehird> clever *-globbing.
2008-03-17.txt:21:55:32: <ehird> AnMaster: not if the shell was clever with * globbing
2008-03-17.txt:22:24:03: <ais523> because the shell does no globbing at all
2008-03-17.txt:22:24:17: <SimonRC> that is because DOS relies on the program to do globbing
2008-03-17.txt:23:08:52: <ais523> incidentally, I've seen a shell-script used to implement init, which used shell globbing to run all the startup scripts in priority order
2008-03-18.txt:21:13:58: <ehird> ting tang walla walla bing bang
2008-03-21.txt:18:21:09: <Hiato> hrmm... yeah, something worth considering, but It doesn't really matter because you can do multiple assignments using lists. :64(a1,a2,a3) in place of grabbing the returned value like this-   :(:65(a1))(a2) etc
2008-03-30.txt:17:56:35: <RodgerTheGreat> in general, I think Apple has struck a good balance between making things user-friendly and avoiding "dumbing down" the unix environment for people who want to use it.
2008-04-01.txt:21:35:45: <ehird> AnMaster: I find your micro-optimization disturbing.
2008-04-11.txt:01:24:52: <ehird> Sgeo: you are describing 'Ajax' which is another buzzword
2008-04-11.txt:17:45:16: <AnMaster> just a page describing in a way that is readable by humans
2008-04-12.txt:16:11:19: <ehird> think of a shorter, more self-describing way to express it
2008-04-16.txt:22:37:03: <ais523> lament: Chris Pressey already implied that joke, when describing TURKEY BOMB as a 'peer-pressure' language
2008-04-17.txt:15:23:13: <ehird> oklopol, bingo
2008-04-21.txt:13:21:04: <ais523> AnMaster: thinking about what they'd likely do, two would be handles to the memory pages the memory is allocated in, two would be offsets within the pages, and one would be a pointer to a struct describing the request and setting parameters, so I'd guess 5 params
2008-04-21.txt:16:40:16: <AnMaster> for syntax when describing, some semi-C prefered
2008-04-23.txt:20:56:25: <ehird> it's vaguely disturbing
2008-04-27.txt:00:57:17: <evincarofautumn> Bingo, revcompgeek.
2008-04-27.txt:01:54:44: <revcompgeek> s/describint/describing
2008-04-28.txt:23:03:18: <evincar> pikhq:  Ha.  Polite ribbing borders on abuse.
2008-05-01.txt:21:42:05: <ais523> then start climbing down the column of asterisks
2008-05-01.txt:21:44:25: <ais523> I climb down to the bottom of the column of asterisks, grabbing the author's credits on the way
2008-05-01.txt:21:49:45: <AnMaster> <ais523> I climb down to the bottom of the column of asterisks, grabbing the author's credits on the way
2008-05-06.txt:15:58:26: <ehird> ais523: i cant' resisit saying something about dumbing down :-)
2008-05-06.txt:19:48:54: <ehird> Deewiant: bingo
2008-05-08.txt:18:05:33: <ais523> ah, it's describing the same thign
2008-05-15.txt:00:22:06: * oerjan finds it slightly disturbing that apparently the frenchman wants tea while the englishman is referring to coffee
2008-05-20.txt:15:51:12: <pikhq> Bingo. :p
2008-05-30.txt:23:02:00: <ehird> and vaguely disturbing
2008-06-01.txt:19:32:30: <Slereah> Well, you're just describing priority.
2008-06-08.txt:16:29:35: <RodgerTheGreat> ah, bingo
2008-06-13.txt:19:45:35: <tusho> ais523: random noise = BINGO
2008-06-13.txt:20:01:48: <pikhq> Bingo.
2008-06-14.txt:20:00:49: <tusho> I might just use Narrative JS. It is, after all, exactly what I'm describing. :-P
2008-06-17.txt:22:03:30: <oklopol> fun - serious - ORGY - three dead in stabbing incident
2008-06-19.txt:21:34:53: <Slereah_> I find your lack of chanserv expertise disturbing.
2008-06-22.txt:16:54:15: <RodgerTheGreat> bingo
2008-06-23.txt:00:31:59: <oklopol> tusho: actually, how was astute wrong describing a comment?
2008-06-23.txt:22:00:52: <AnMaster> after a lot of heavy work and stubbing out stuff
2008-07-01.txt:16:17:16: <ais523> it's clear to me he's describing a paradigm
2008-07-04.txt:05:03:51: <RodgerTheGreat> in the past, I've made a handful of things like my self-randomizing bingo card: http://rodger.nonlogic.org/games/bingo.ps
2008-07-07.txt:15:16:08: <ais523> I'll fix that once I have a website up describing it
2008-07-07.txt:15:16:30: <ais523> there's a page in the C-INTERCAL manual describing IFFI now, so I just need to put the manual online and I can link to that
2008-07-07.txt:16:43:45: <Dewi> but no globbing
2008-07-07.txt:21:53:37: <ais523> AnMaster: the way CLC-INTERCAL works is so complicated that even I have trouble describing it
2008-07-09.txt:01:20:19: <RodgerTheGreat> lament: bingo!
2008-07-09.txt:23:25:22: <lament> augur: ...isn't that exactly what i was describing on the past ~5 lines?
2008-07-12.txt:14:53:09: <oklopol> not kinda disturbing.
2008-07-12.txt:17:57:12: <hotidlerchick> this is fucking disturbing
2008-07-16.txt:10:19:05: <oklopol> but it's kinda OO, you're always describing an object
2008-07-16.txt:13:57:36: <oklopol> AnMaster: anyway, this is what it looks like with newlines and tabbing: http://www.vjn.fi/pb/p466261364.txt
2008-07-16.txt:17:17:14: <Deewiant> and yeah, I've essentially been describing such an interface
2008-07-17.txt:21:52:10: <ais523> augur: by describing a compiler from cyclic tag systems into it
2008-07-19.txt:13:00:31: <oklopol> i should really start playing with ai, i almost get a boner from even looking at c++ code describing a flock of birds
2008-07-20.txt:00:05:52: <oklopol> stop rubbing it in my face, that was the stupidest mistake i've made in a month
2008-07-20.txt:04:10:34: <pikhq> Bingo.
2008-07-27.txt:22:02:57: <oklopol> i think sicp is a long book with too little confusing mind-numbing math
2008-07-29.txt:23:48:45: <tusho_> just never tried subscribing
2008-07-30.txt:02:38:16: <CakeProphet> when describing the structure of a sentence
2008-08-01.txt:14:16:38: <ais523> tusho: because it would be a Harbinger of the End of the World
2008-08-08.txt:21:19:18: <MikeRiley> grabbing
2008-08-08.txt:21:39:08: <tusho> optbot: agreed. a good eye-stabbing
2008-08-12.txt:11:42:40: <tusho> asiekierka: Er, you've been nabbing on about organizing brainfuck contests and thinking of various large projects (like games) to code in BF since 2007.
2008-08-12.txt:19:12:55: <tusho> ais523: blabbing like "IT'S MEANT FOR TESTING NEW ESOLANGS!!!11" and we told him that we had perfectly good computers for that, but we liked EsoBot because it's fun to see how it can survive
2008-08-12.txt:20:24:45: <AnMaster> 00.00.0000 action An integer describing what should happen on the change being triggered:
2008-08-13.txt:15:35:01: <asiekierka> describing my feelings
2008-08-16.txt:00:37:20: <pikhq> psygnisfive: Disturbing, but cool.
2008-08-16.txt:13:13:17: <AnMaster> I find bad typography really really disturbing when reading
2008-08-16.txt:20:49:00: <MikeRiley> gender is how you feel about yourself...sex is your plumbing....
2008-08-20.txt:17:16:36: <MikeRiley> but i also have a document better describing what TRDS should be capable of doing....
2008-08-22.txt:18:17:23: <Deewiant> AnMaster: btw, what funktio is doing is essentially grabbing the minimum coordinate over all funge-space cells
2008-09-02.txt:13:37:28: <fizzie> For disturbingly many X, "does perl have a X" has a positive answer.
2008-09-16.txt:15:09:08: <tusho> [[Why are videos worse than text? I have to consume them at the pace and in the order dictated by the producer. I cannot skim them. They take orders of magnitude more bandwidth. I cannot search for a word or phrase. I am unable to quote from them without transcribing by hand. I cannot easily page around to see the general shape, or pick out an interesting paragraph to read, or send a part to somebody else. They are not indexed properly by Google.]
2008-09-20.txt:21:44:49: <fizzie> That's more like unsubscribing.
2008-09-27.txt:22:09:02: <tusho> ais523: abstract: I am describing things in the it.
2008-09-30.txt:19:13:20: <tusho> jnode is disturbingly useful looking:
2008-10-09.txt:20:33:01: <oklopol> i mean, after subscribing
2008-10-09.txt:20:39:11: <ais523> on the other hand, Windows doesn't have FIFOs, so the plumbing might be harder
2008-10-16.txt:08:28:22: <fizzie> That's somewhat disturbing. The bot is going to "tune" me.
2008-10-19.txt:14:22:29: <AnMaster>     Vpos    A vector describing what cell to operate on in Funge-Space.
2008-10-19.txt:15:33:26: <ehird> until it runs away (deletes itself) sobbing
2008-10-20.txt:15:38:48: <oerjan> as for the second, i eagerly await when you will start climbing in the windows...
2008-10-21.txt:18:47:41: <ehird> AnMaster: um, make your parameters self-describing
2008-10-21.txt:20:08:06: <AnMaster> anyway can't record more now without disturbing ppl
2008-10-21.txt:23:29:19: <oerjan> disturbing
2008-10-21.txt:23:29:42: <oerjan> well, ook would be even more disturbing
2008-10-24.txt:11:16:46: <Ilari> What's ATHR? Any URL describing it?
2008-10-28.txt:22:32:53: <ehird> AnMaster: do you have a probing hash or a linked list hash?
2008-10-28.txt:22:33:23: <ehird> I have a feeling probing might be faster, foo++, arr[foo] "seems" faster than foo = foo->next, foo
2008-10-28.txt:22:35:16: <fizzie> As far as probing is considered, just linear probing might not be the best bet; it usually isn't.
2008-10-28.txt:22:35:25: <AnMaster> which type of probing, wikipedia mentions linear probing and quadratic probing
2008-10-28.txt:22:35:36: <ehird> AnMaster: Well, according to fizzie, quadratic probing :p
2008-10-28.txt:22:35:42: <ehird> I did quadratic probing
2008-10-28.txt:22:36:11: <ehird> but yeah go for quadratic probing
2008-10-28.txt:22:37:02: <fizzie> I did double hashing (read: the probe increment computed from a second hashing function) for my closed hash table; it did a bit better than quadratic probing, but I never benchmarked whether that advantage was eaten by the hashing overhead.
2008-10-28.txt:22:42:29: <ehird> [21:36] ehird: but yeah go for quadratic probing
2008-10-28.txt:22:42:33: <ehird> fizzie: I did double hashing (read: the probe increment computed from a second hashing function) for my closed hash table; it did a bit better than quadratic probing, but I never benchmarked whether that advantage was eaten by the hashing overhead.
2008-10-28.txt:22:44:46: <ehird> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_addressing this is just probing
2008-10-28.txt:22:45:59: <ehird> I'd just do linear probing and see the speedup, then refine
2008-10-28.txt:22:46:59: <fizzie> With linear probing you probably want to keep the table load factor within some sensible values. I understand it gets slow fast when the table is full enough, even with a good hash function.
2008-10-28.txt:22:49:13: <fizzie> Well, obviously with quadratic probing too, except with a different definition for "sensible".
2008-10-28.txt:22:50:48: <ehird> AnMaster: In the time we've talked you could have profiled the quadratic probing approach.
2008-10-29.txt:02:23:15: <oerjan> tabbing works though
2008-10-29.txt:15:25:34: <AnMaster> ehird, well if you want. I was reading up on different probing models and such
2008-10-29.txt:21:43:12: <fungot> fizzie: uni tübingen is actively working on hills, so expect php errors, and is it the most recent officially sanctioned one.
2008-11-01.txt:17:52:23: <ehird> what the heck are you blabbing on about
2008-11-01.txt:18:09:10: <oerjan> optbot: some may find that disturbing
2008-11-03.txt:17:56:38: <ais523> it's perfectly self-describing, yet basically impossible to use
2008-11-07.txt:11:53:02: <ais523> I do profiling the good old-fashioned and almost useless way, by grabbing a really precise timer as often as possible and counting the length of the intervals
2008-11-13.txt:15:51:36: <oklopol> i find it disturbing
2008-11-16.txt:21:28:05: <oklopol> that's what you'd do with english, something like "loop this action here; now do some other action; now print the number of cycles you went around the loop" <<< you wouldn't actually say, when describing the loop, that we're storing the cycle count
2008-11-22.txt:19:15:59: <oklopol> because i accidentally hit space after climbing the wall
2008-11-22.txt:22:18:22: <fizzie> These have the sort of time limits that when climbing up a ledge, you need to bounce off immediately; if you actually stop and stand on the ledge, you run out of time.
2008-11-22.txt:23:23:11: <fizzie> Although I almost ran out of time because I took the upward slope so carefully, and then had a lot of trouble climbing up the other pipe, due to not having done that sort of thing a lot in the previous levels.
2008-11-23.txt:13:24:15: <ehird> try climbing
2008-11-26.txt:21:39:08: <psygnisfive> well the challenge was to find an explanatory way of describing the restrictions :P
2008-11-26.txt:23:17:27: <psygnisfive> bing bing
