Messing around with various mathematical calculations with matrices and whatnot... I gave up trying to use it for anything big. 2003-04-20.txt:01:56:27: <lament> And then it turns out to be the next big thing 2003-07-09.txt:03:25:08: <lament> Because of the arbitrarily big memory requirement for turing-completeness. 2003-07-13.txt:19:48:34: <lament> still, it's a big, active BBS 2003-07-25.txt:08:24:05: <lament> that's a big message. 2003-07-26.txt:07:09:30: <lament> wow, today's log is big. 2003-07-28.txt:02:17:08: <andreou> ), been listed in Who's Who in both Industry and Science, ran for public office, served in office in various large organizations, been in two movies, and never made any big money. 2003-07-28.txt:02:17:31: <Taaus> lol... Never made any big money. 2003-07-29.txt:18:43:24: <Taaus> I think it'll turn into a big ball of mud... If anything at all. 2003-07-30.txt:00:04:52: <Taaus> The Pragmatic Programmers are big proponents of Ruby, yeah. 2003-07-30.txt:20:50:08: <Taaus> What do you propose I use instead? Bigloo? 2003-07-30.txt:20:50:34: <lament> maybe even bigloo! 2003-08-19.txt:12:40:54: <dbc> At least four big smashed garlic cloves. 2004-02-08.txt:20:50:37: <Toreun> I wanted it to have the functionality of funge 98, without such a big mess 2004-02-08.txt:21:21:03: <Toreun> fizzie: ... but you could just add whitespace on the sides of the source to make it bigger 2004-02-10.txt:23:38:48: <fizzie> they're definitely not trying to hide the web-development-aspect. also from the faq, "The biggest advantage of PHP over Perl is that PHP was designed for scripting for the web where Perl was designed to do a lot more and can because of this get very complicated." 2004-02-13.txt:01:13:07: <calamari_> if I'm gonna be paying the big bucks, you'd better believe it 2004-02-20.txt:22:41:53: <mooz-> ...how big is the pdf? 2004-04-30.txt:08:30:16: <heatsink> The picture is a big help to understanding that, I didn't know how it worked before 2004-05-04.txt:00:52:04: <Toreun> if you don't know PHP, it's no big deal... but I probably should learn perl anyway 2004-05-27.txt:15:33:13: <Keymaker> that's big plus (lack of bugs) 2004-05-27.txt:15:47:19: <fizzie> although I guess I could have made a big enough mess with c++ templates. 2004-05-27.txt:15:57:09: <Keymaker> it'd take me a lot time to read those funge specifications, but what is the biggest difference between befunge 93 and 98, or are they even same language? 2004-05-27.txt:16:14:27: <fizzie> but you can put anything from the stack to the playfield without having to worry about it being too big. 2004-05-27.txt:21:59:43: <fizzie> my biggest z80 program is the md5 algo and OTP-key-calculator. 2004-05-27.txt:22:09:24: <fizzie> and a 5-din connector is relatively big. 2004-05-27.txt:22:31:47: <mooz-> * Tech Support: "Sir, the 486 is bigger than the 286." 2004-05-27.txt:23:37:07: <fizzie> I have a sed script which does that for relatively big numbers. 2004-05-28.txt:20:51:07: <calamari_> also, I'm not sure how big a stack I'll need 2004-05-28.txt:20:53:27: <calamari_> toreun: the program just grows with > to the right.. it's up to the bf interp/comp to handle big memory 2004-05-28.txt:20:57:03: <calamari_> that's okay.. not a big deal 2004-06-04.txt:16:49:20: <fizzie> "if you want more digits, write a bigger program." 2004-06-10.txt:20:17:51: <lament> it would also require a fucking big computer 2004-06-10.txt:20:23:23: <lament> but yeah, it's still a big number. 2004-06-20.txt:17:42:40: <calamari_> ran into a small hiccup with call(gosub) & return.. it needs a place to return to (the next instruction). I've thought of 3 schemes to handle it. 1) start temp labels at -1 (problem: big number when 32-bit) 2) labels 2x, temp labels 2x+1 (problem: on-gosub,goto get messed up), 3) have user specify and create return label (problem: annoying) 2004-06-20.txt:18:15:36: <fizzie> sounds that any non-trivial C programs will compile to rather big blobs of brainfuck. 2004-06-20.txt:18:18:32: <fizzie> nnope. but you can write a brainf*ck->befunge translator, probably some funge98 interpreters handle pretty big source files since the spec defines an infinite playfield. 2004-06-21.txt:17:40:25: <calamari_> this morning I made a new ansi c bfi.. can handle big programs and allocates more memory as needed 2004-06-23.txt:20:14:18: <fizzie> how big is your partially-working bfasm when brainf*cked? 2004-06-26.txt:19:27:43: <bbls> that results in big trouble 2004-06-26.txt:20:23:07: <lament> bbls: Somehow I don't think precision is your biggest problem 2004-06-26.txt:20:23:23: <bbls> lament what you think then that's my biggest problem? 2004-06-28.txt:02:47:11: <WildHalcyon_> Yeah, Ive been working on my language for a few months (3.... I think), because I'm having a big issue deciding how to call the functions 2004-06-29.txt:17:59:06: <calamari_> lament: not true.. you can do "add" loops to set big pointers 2004-07-02.txt:06:33:49: <WildHalcyon> The problem is, I want the language to support arbitrarily large fields, and I can't have an arbitrary goto command on something that can be larger than the biggest integer the language supports 2004-07-02.txt:06:38:15: <heatsink> Can a single datum (a cell, the stack contents, etc.) be arbitrarily big? Because then you could pack the lambda function into a single value, and then unpack it in-place... In fact, I've been wanting to do an esolang sort of like that 2004-07-17.txt:22:45:57: <fizzie> mine is differently coloured, and perhaps a bit bigger. (or maybe not. hard to estimate scale in that pic.) 2004-07-17.txt:23:22:26: <fizzie> there are some rather ambiguous choices when determining which is the "top" side of a thrown koosh ball. 2004-09-23.txt:19:50:02: <ZeroOne> fizzie: "radix of n-dimensional space, sort of. unambiguous coordinates etc." 2004-12-29.txt:19:44:16: <cpressey> i was meaning to, but it's a big project and i never found the time. 2005-03-05.txt:13:35:29: <Keymaker> anyways: this new version seems to do the job with 2000000000+ executed instructions _less_ than the old version (so you can guess this is a big improvement in the program) 2005-03-06.txt:08:37:23: <cpressey> my 2c... biggest problem right now is that EsoAPI and Easel both assume the esolang has the concept of a "current cell"... not all of them do 2005-03-14.txt:19:15:01: <calamari> it shouldn't be a big deal 2005-03-17.txt:23:15:27: <calamari> whoa, that was a big drop.. might be a while yet 2005-03-18.txt:19:24:04: <calamari> print var is broken for numbers like 255, because it's actually 65535, or whatever the size that the cell is on these bigger interps 2005-03-18.txt:20:13:47: <calamari> if they want to print big numbers then the user will need to wait or use a better interp :) 2005-03-19.txt:22:55:15: <{^Raven^}> rewriting a big part of the code to see if that helps 2005-04-01.txt:09:02:53: <matricks> when |dx| or |dy| becomes bigger then 1, wrapping becomes weird 2005-04-05.txt:15:50:14: <Keymaker> how big are the stacks? 2005-04-05.txt:15:50:41: <kipple> which means BIG 2005-05-03.txt:17:06:10: <pgimeno> no big deal, just that I couldn't speak to Keymaker before he left 2005-05-03.txt:22:10:33: <GregorR> Does anyone have anywhere appropriate for me to upload FYB? It's not big, but I'd really rather not upload it to one of my unrelated SF projects..... 2005-05-05.txt:12:44:50: <pgimeno> say, you want to operate with numbers > 255 (e.g. to perform a scientific computation; BF is soon to be implemented as the language of choice for scientific computations, replacing the now obsolete FORTRAN). Do you have to write your own bignum library? 2005-05-05.txt:12:47:14: <Keymaker> you can operate with really big numbers but it gets really hard 2005-05-06.txt:08:21:42: <lament> "brainfuck provides arbitrarily big memory" 2005-05-06.txt:08:24:05: <lament> which could mean that the cells themselves can be infinitely big 2005-05-06.txt:08:26:19: <lament> and if the problem is bigger, you just increase the memory size 2005-05-06.txt:08:27:01: <lament> no matter how big your problem is 2005-05-06.txt:08:30:08: <lament> arbitrarily big 2005-05-06.txt:13:22:51: <pgimeno> I think that that's too big a challenge 2005-05-07.txt:04:38:07: <KnX> a very ugly big hashtable 2005-05-09.txt:15:43:06: <pgimeno> my machine is also underclocked; otherwise I had to avoid running emulators and cpu-consuming programs during summer, even if I have a big fan pointing to the case 2005-05-11.txt:00:43:59: <kipple> as I said, no big deal 2005-05-11.txt:05:31:55: <calamari> keymaker: probably big sine waves :) 2005-05-12.txt:00:24:27: <GregorR-L> If Bob the Big Brain says it's greater then I am to sing the song. < this ought to be able to say "I am to loop" 2005-05-12.txt:01:23:46: <kipple> not a big deal though 2005-05-12.txt:07:00:33: <Keymaker> hmm i'n not big fan of downloading things 2005-05-12.txt:19:22:23: <kipple> and a big problem for us esoholics... 2005-05-12.txt:19:33:47: <kipple> but the big problem isn't crashes and backups. it's people loosing interest, and discontinuing their web site 2005-05-12.txt:20:17:46: <Keymaker> btw, where you have that big database fizzie? 2005-05-12.txt:20:29:25: <Keymaker> i have a big bunch of german trance :p 2005-05-14.txt:19:22:24: <fizzie> Also, if I want a big ( >= 2^31 ) numerical constant, I need to use nnnn.0 instead of nnnn, which is a bit.. undesirable, since I really shouldn't have to know about the generated C++ code. 2005-05-15.txt:04:02:03: <calamari> it's written in Java, so hopefully it won't be too big a deal to get it to compile 2005-05-18.txt:20:35:15: <fizzie> I don't think I've had more than 14 consecutive )s, but I haven't written anything very big in scheme. A corewars interpreter/environment/thing once. 2005-05-18.txt:20:36:08: <pgimeno> corewars interpreter? uhm, too big a prog for me to write in that thing, I'm no so masochists 2005-05-21.txt:13:47:11: <CXI> one of the big issues in wikipedia is scope 2005-05-22.txt:08:06:42: <GregorR> Where's the big explosion? 2005-05-23.txt:20:43:59: <GregorR-L> If it doesn't, there's a big point for "Wiki!" :P 2005-05-23.txt:20:44:39: <pgimeno> yeah, that's the big con against MoinMoin 2005-05-23.txt:20:49:49: <GregorR-L> The big draw-back of Wiki! for the record is that it uses HTML, rather than a convenient Wikiscript. 2005-05-23.txt:20:57:14: <kipple> not a big issue IMHO 2005-05-23.txt:23:05:01: <pgimeno> no big deal; just BF programmers will have to be careful when moving the data pointer around 2005-05-24.txt:22:27:54: <malaprop> graue: wiki/ is the default name IIRC, is no biggie 2005-05-24.txt:22:31:57: <malaprop> As hosts should fail fairly infrequently, is not a big hassle. 2005-05-24.txt:22:32:27: <kipple> rsync can be told to exclude file patterns, so no biggie 2005-05-24.txt:23:43:22: <kipple_> anyways, Wikipedia contains copyrighted images and stuff, so can't be that big a problem 2005-05-25.txt:00:40:11: <GregorR> But the main would know it, and could put a big red banner on the page saying "THIS MIRROR IS DOWN!!!!!!!!" 2005-05-25.txt:00:53:55: <kipple_> though it might get big if not zipped 2005-05-26.txt:04:30:54: <graue> flat files are easier to browse and back up, and everything in the wiki is public domain, while stuff in the files directory may have other or ambiguous copyright 2005-05-26.txt:15:18:38: <kipple> but a dump of the files could potentially be quite big 2005-05-26.txt:22:02:07: <kipple> not a big deal, but nice if you're going to have an editor 2005-05-27.txt:00:07:21: <graue> if they're stored unrolled, you can check out the whole thing via svn and voila, you have a big esoteric language distribution ready to use 2005-05-27.txt:00:25:39: <GregorR> I don't think there's any need for the FILES to be in a hierarchy - the hierarchy is in the design of the Wiki. They can just be sitting in one big directory, so long as the wiki makes their purposes obvious. 2005-05-27.txt:00:25:45: <kipple> I still don't see the big problem. The programs should be listed on the language page 2005-05-27.txt:00:28:05: <calamari> graue: the files directory becomes useless if it is just a big lump of files 2005-05-27.txt:16:47:46: <jix> wenn der wert größer als 4 ist dann beepe == if the value is bigger than 4 then beep == valid apple script 2005-05-27.txt:17:36:54: <jix> on windows i can fix problems as fast as an average windows user.. on debian i need 4 times the time a linux guru would need and on osx.. hmm what went wrong.. hmm i got kernel panics with an additional kernel extension so i removed it.. no other big problems 2005-05-27.txt:19:01:32: <GregorR> People package spyware in downloaded programs. You run them, you get spyware. There's no reason that that wouldn't work in ANY operating system, the only way to block it would be with the even worse big-brother trusted computing. 2005-05-27.txt:23:14:08: <kipple> same place, same file (just much bigger) 2005-05-28.txt:23:46:06: <Keymaker> harder than the stacks would be the big numbers, i guess 2005-05-29.txt:18:47:37: <kipple> but it's not a big deal 2005-05-30.txt:19:33:22: <GregorR> *big paste coming* 2005-05-31.txt:17:59:00: <kipple> that's my biggest issue with the old one. It so extremely SLOW on serve with 2005-05-31.txt:20:30:28: <graue> i am going to the bank; i challenge any interested persons to resolve ambiguities and contradictions in the document (if any exist) and implement an interpreter or compiler before i return 2005-06-01.txt:18:39:18: <pgimeno> ZeroOne: hehe, no prob, just probably the biggest lag I've seen on IRC 2005-06-02.txt:21:05:48: <cpressey> given a "big enough FSA" you can compute anything 2005-06-02.txt:21:43:02: <Keymaker> lol, the language has a big set of instructions :D 2005-06-04.txt:14:23:04: <kipple> not a big deal, but it might break some old programs 2005-06-04.txt:20:41:31: <lament> big deal 2005-06-04.txt:22:07:10: <lament> does LBA have to have arbitrarily big storage? 2005-06-04.txt:22:51:06: <cpressey> pgimeno: a max file size? well... all i meant was that in practice, you don't use bignums ;) 2005-06-05.txt:19:34:14: <cpressey> i'm not so big a fan of ruby, but i don't have any particular thing against it 2005-06-05.txt:21:12:47: <pgimeno> graue: yeah, you have a point there; but still, for quick'n'easy scripts (rather than big projects) I find it useful 2005-06-06.txt:07:57:01: <graue> with a proper command set, a language with only one bignum should be TC 2005-06-06.txt:07:57:51: <lament> it would operate on the digits of the bignum :) 2005-06-06.txt:08:15:23: <lament> http://www.dangermouse.net/esoteric/fibbig.gif 2005-06-06.txt:11:30:22: <pgimeno> DMM: thanks for your permission to use the hellobig.png as a logo, btw 2005-06-06.txt:19:56:19: <cpressey> re one bignum... my understanding is an FSA + two counters (bignums) is TC. 2005-06-06.txt:19:56:41: <cpressey> (so maybe a rational bignum...?) 2005-06-07.txt:01:14:45: <cpressey> you can make wireworld forms as big as you like... but you can make fsm's as big as you like too 2005-06-07.txt:23:02:06: <lament> and that's a bigass interval 2005-06-07.txt:23:31:39: <lament> the interpreter uses bignums 2005-06-07.txt:23:31:50: <lament> i like bignums though 2005-06-08.txt:05:25:37: <lament> http://www.dangermouse.net/esoteric/fibbig.gif 2005-06-08.txt:05:35:10: <graue> npiet trace is here: http://www.bertnase.de/npiet/fib-trace-big.png 2005-06-08.txt:22:13:00: <malaprop> Ya, I figured he was either doing something fast or big, was just curious. 2005-06-09.txt:17:33:19: <pgimeno> this Piet program prints "ESO": http://www.formauri.es/personal/pgimeno/temp/eso-big.png 2005-06-09.txt:23:53:07: <calamari> I don't see the big problem 2005-06-10.txt:14:06:09: <pgimeno> the issue with npiet is that cells are 32-bit integers instead of bignums, so fibonacci numbers greater than the 45th one don't come out well 2005-06-10.txt:14:06:22: <pgimeno> does perl handle bignums? 2005-06-10.txt:14:27:44: <fizzie> Although Math::BigInt apparently is part of the standard. 2005-06-10.txt:16:59:54: <pgimeno> at least if the stack is able to hold bignums 2005-06-10.txt:20:32:56: <pgimeno> http://www.formauri.es/personal/pgimeno/temp/eso-big.png 2005-06-11.txt:06:16:37: <calamari> I'm not sure that's such a big deal :) 2005-06-11.txt:20:09:28: <Keymaker> 'I' (big 'i') to increase memory stack's top value by 10 2005-06-12.txt:00:44:32: <Keymaker> probably first check which one is bigger 2005-06-13.txt:00:44:11: <Keymaker> logical not that works with values bigger than 1, as well 2005-06-13.txt:01:36:51: <graue> the way it uses brainfuck is no better than giving us a big .exe file 2005-06-13.txt:01:56:15: <calamari> graue: bf is cross platform.. and it is interesting to me: 1) example of the power of bf, 2) a fun game, 3) using bfbasic, 4) big, etc 2005-06-13.txt:02:02:49: <calamari> since I know how big a star wars fan you are, I know you'll appreciate that ;) 2005-06-16.txt:01:02:00: <calamari_> keymaker: right now all the statements and operators are in a big messy blob.. crappy code basically.. hard to understand and extend 2005-06-16.txt:01:10:33: <calamari_> it would take care of all the parsing ,which is where the big mess comes in 2005-06-16.txt:20:36:42: <kipple> well the site is off-line (big surprise) 2005-06-17.txt:23:57:48: <Keymaker> ah. i'm talking about the big exams you need to get trough to get out from high school, or whatever would be the translation 2005-06-18.txt:00:10:37: <{^Raven^}> calamari: Glastonbury is a small village, the festival is held in a big field(s) on a farm 2005-06-18.txt:00:17:06: <Keymaker> it's one of the biggest festivals around, on midsummer, and there's also other good electronic music 2005-06-22.txt:17:17:07: * GregorR watches the big red rubber tokigun bouncing ;) 2005-06-22.txt:20:44:56: <tokigun> http://bigzaphod.org/whirl/ 2005-06-25.txt:00:13:45: <calamari> it was big, I liked that 2005-06-25.txt:00:13:55: <lament> big games are intimidating :( 2005-06-25.txt:01:04:28: <{^Raven^}> cpressey: I am going to try to make the biggest and best game I can 2005-06-25.txt:19:34:04: <calamari> I'd be done with the bit debigger already, but I ran into a problem the other day.. if the program was running, I couldn't stop it, because it was using the same thread as Swing. I could use multiple threads, but I lose a bit of control, and can't do certain things.
