[00:00:09] <takyon> more like 20
[00:01:30] <Gravis> well the person that perfects manufacturing QCA tech should get a nobel prize
[00:04:33] <Gravis> takyon: considering how companies work, i don't think we'll be seeing QCA for a good long while.
[00:05:49] <takyon> there will be an alternative to CMOS if there is no 3D CMOS CPU
[00:06:27] <takyon> now that moore's law is about to be declared dead, there will be more attention paid to finding a successor for around the 7nm mark
[00:06:50] <Gravis> sure... but it's crap compared to QCA
[00:06:55] <takyon> ideally a transistor/cooling breakthrough would allow stacking, like with 3D NAND
[00:07:32] <takyon> there's a potential 1,000,000x performance gain to be realized with CMOS, if clock speeds go up and stacking is used
[00:10:44] <Gravis> sure, you can get nice speed but you also get power drain with it
[00:11:08] <Gravis> how about just something that runs at decent speed and never need charging?
[00:11:21] <Gravis> needs*
[00:11:32] <takyon> well, the Nobel prize is ready and waiting
[00:11:44] <Gravis> exactly
[00:12:08] <chromas> My phone is charged by shaking, like those flash lights. It never dies because I watch a lot of porn
[00:12:20] <takyon> I'm also keeping an eye on this, although I don't think it can scale down to flat bendy phone size
[00:12:22] <takyon> http://www.hpcwire.com
[00:12:26] <NotAnymore> ^ 03Is This the Exascale Breakthrough We've Been Waiting For?
[00:12:58] <Gravis> we have too much processing power already, we don't need more.
[00:13:12] <Gravis> it's just getting abused
[00:13:47] <chromas> What? I wanna run folding@home in my pocket on a folded up phone
[00:14:11] <Gravis> hmm... yes, science could put it to good use
[00:14:25] <chromas> Or render animation in my pocket to keep my pants hot in the winter
[00:15:07] <chromas> Sometimes…sometimes I just wanna run 300MB of javascript when I'm reading the news
[00:15:15] <Gravis> who knows, maybe capitalism will solve itself and save us from dystopia
[00:15:24] <takyon> no, we need more processing power
[00:15:50] <chromas> It would be nice to get away from lossy video compression
[00:16:00] <chromas> So we can edit and re-edit vidya without artifacts
[00:16:18] <takyon> there is no maximum amount of processing power needed. If you have it wasted on bad code or can't figure out to do with it, that's YOUR problem
[00:17:03] <chromas> At the very least, your computer can get a task done and go back to sleep faster, saving moar battery
[00:17:23] <takyon> supercomputing centers can always use more processsing power, including up to zettascale and beyond. every industry could use better machine learning.
[00:17:41] <chromas> Hm, we could probably save some power by turning off antialiasing, which is almost useless on high dpi screens
[00:18:08] <takyon> I've heard 4K without antialiasing is pretty good
[00:18:42] <takyon> on the machine learning/shit that Google is doing side of things, more processing power might be replaced with "different" processing power, like neuromorphic or quantum computing
[00:18:50] <Gravis> bbl #phoenix
[00:19:48] <chromas> Do we have 64-core arm chips for desktops yet?
[00:22:38] <takyon> http://www.v3.co.uk
[00:22:40] <NotAnymore> ^ 03ARM aims at network infrastructure with many-core SoCs and open software stack - IT News from V3.co.uk
[00:22:52] <takyon> "Cavium's ThunderX line boasts up to 48 64-bit ARM cores running at up to 2.5GHz, and is aimed at a wide variety of data centre applications. Different chips in the family have different accelerators for storage, networking, compute or security applications.
[00:22:52] <takyon> "
[00:23:46] <takyon> there was also Calxeda but they got destroyed and restructured

[11:23:50] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: greetings in the name of the maggot infested ballsack of the undead god Lord Gerbilius.
[11:24:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> And back at ya in the name of the great and powerful GOAT
[11:24:43] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: Got any good links on Perl function prototypes
[11:24:44] <Subsentient> ?
[11:24:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> hrm...
[11:25:12] <Subsentient> The camel book seems to make it hard to grasp.
[11:25:36] <Subsentient> I kinda like how everything is like C's va_args in Perl.
[11:26:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> you looking for capital P prototypes or just stuff people have written?
[11:26:31] <Subsentient> Capital P.
[11:26:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> okay, nope. they're rarely used in perl.
[11:26:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> almost never in my experience.
[11:26:56] <Subsentient> Function prototypes are rarely used??
[11:27:49] <TheMightyBuzzard> ya, perl guys don't tend to like their functions arguing with them because we sent the wrong number/type of arguments.
[11:28:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> so we don't prototype, we just write the function and trust ourselves to send it the right shat.
[11:29:04] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: .... I actually like that mentality. I really do.
[11:29:24] <Subsentient> I do, however, myself, adhere to "readable code or die".
[11:29:31] <TheMightyBuzzard> good cause i don't think i've EVER seen a prototype used in production perl code
[11:30:16] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: What are your complete thoughts on Perl 6?
[11:30:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod, in that case i'd do a comment above the function
[11:30:26] <TheMightyBuzzard> #perl6
[11:30:26] <MrPlow> Get off my lawn!
[11:31:01] <TheMightyBuzzard> i may pick it up in a year after people have written enough of a variety of modules to make it useful but so far it mildly annoys me.
[11:32:18] <TheMightyBuzzard> did write a bot it in and it does do function prototyping much more commonly
[11:32:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> well, of a sort
[11:33:08] <TheMightyBuzzard> it allows you to write separate functions with the same name to handle varying amounts/types of arguments. which i consider confusing insanity.
[11:36:36] <TheMightyBuzzard> blerg, brain's not kicking in yet. may not be coding today.

[11:49:57] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: Ahh, so Perl 6 has function overloading. So does C++. Perl doesn't need it. That's.... tacky.
[11:51:23] <crutchy> is perl as piss weak as php with typing?
[11:51:50] <crutchy> overloading would be almost useless in a weak typed language
[11:52:17] <Subsentient> crutchy: Perl 5 is extremely weak in typing, but it actually plays out pretty well. Perl 6, dunno.
[11:52:30] <Subsentient> Perl 6 is a separate language, but bleach. I don't like what I've seen so far.
[11:54:01] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: What do you suppose will happen to Perl 5 in 10 years?
[11:54:03] * crutchy is having fun with an object pascal program lately
[11:54:07] <crutchy> strong_typing++
[11:54:07] <Bender> karma - strong_typing: 2
[11:54:40] <crutchy> Subsentient, it will be integrated into systemd :p
[11:54:46] <Subsentient> C has strong typing, despite what some want you to think. Void pointers are a trap door to bypass it, but it must be explicit and it's usually not safe/portable/condoned by the standard.
[11:55:25] <crutchy> pascal has generic pointers. the compiler throws up warnings but doesn't prevent their use
[11:55:32] <crutchy> hell the compiler whinges about pchars
[11:55:46] <Subsentient> crutchy: got some source I can look at?
[11:56:00] <crutchy> you can also typecast as a generic pointer :p
[11:56:46] <crutchy> delphi sources?
[11:56:57] <Subsentient> crutchy: pascal
[11:56:59] <crutchy> not a lot online. https://github.com maybe

[11:57:14] * exec insatiably offers a wine flute of glowballs to #soylent
[11:57:16] <crutchy> delphi is object pascal IDE
[11:57:47] <crutchy> this one is a typical front end source: https://github.com
[11:57:48] <NotAnymore> ^ 03exec-irc-bot/Main.pas at master · crutchy-/exec-irc-bot · GitHub
[11:58:18] <Subsentient> crutchy: what compilers you use for Pascal?
[11:58:48] <crutchy> delphi is proprietary. there's also freepascal/lazarus, which is free
[11:59:06] <crutchy> lazarus is comparable to older versions of delphi (that i still use)
[12:00:00] <Subsentient> crutchy: ahh, I see. I got an old book on Pascal, actually. Wonder how much is still relevant.
[12:00:12] <crutchy> probably most of it :)
[12:00:28] <crutchy> you can still do inline assembly in delphi :p
[12:01:16] <Subsentient> crutchy: you should learn plain old C.
[12:01:17] <crutchy> can still usually compile old pascal programs in newer compilers with minimal tweaking
[12:01:30] <crutchy> i know a little
[12:02:03] <crutchy> i got a high distinction for a unit on C in my uni course years ago
[12:02:14] <crutchy> it was just basic shit though
[12:02:15] <Subsentient> ahh nice
[12:02:31] <Subsentient> I know the C standard very well. It's the language I know the best.
[12:03:09] <Subsentient> I know the following languages in order from best to worst: C, C++, Python, JavaScript, Perl, POSIX shell script.
[12:03:25] <Subsentient> C is still the only language I am "confident" in.
[12:03:38] <crutchy> i do mostly delphi and php
[12:03:56] <crutchy> each has their own uses
[12:04:29] <crutchy> some projects i use both, such as a php rest server for a delphi gui app
[12:05:05] <crutchy> (that source i liked is like that)
[12:05:13] <crutchy> s/liked/linked/
[12:05:13] <sedctl> <crutchy> (that source i linked is like that)
[12:05:31] <Subsentient> crutchy: Doesn't PHP fundamentally change all the time?
[12:05:41] <crutchy> dunno
[12:05:56] <crutchy> there were some minor changes recently
[12:06:03] <Subsentient> Don't, like, PHP 5 to 6, break tons of code?
[12:06:08] <crutchy> nah not really
[12:06:36] <Subsentient> ahh.
[12:06:40] <crutchy> they do deprecate stuff sometimes
[12:06:50] <crutchy> like the old mysql_* library
[12:06:53] <Subsentient> From what I've seen of Perl so far, I imagine I will be embedding a Perl interpreter in C++ applications.

[12:30:23] <cmn32480> bye!
[12:38:03] <TheMightyBuzzard> Subsentient, watch embedding an interpreter. specially if you're using modules other people wrote in your perl. they can get pretty damned hefty if you do stuff in perl you should be doing in C. like MrPlow is running 50-60MB resident on account of him being pure perl and he doesn't have all that much functionality.
[12:53:04] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: Yeah, unfortunately I'm aware of the memory problems with interpreted languages. Perl must be a doozey for its own interpreter to parse...
[12:53:25] <Subsentient> Memory issues is partly why I wrote aqu4bot in C.
[12:53:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> depends on how much you plan on doing with it.
[12:54:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> just including like the perlre library is usually enough to get plenty of awesome in a lower level language.
[12:54:12] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: The first thing I'm going to do is completely rewrite my NEXUS BNC in Perl and give it a new name. The codebase for NEXUS is a lost cause.
[12:54:24] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah?
[12:54:32] <Subsentient> Yeah, it's hideous beyond description.
[12:54:52] <Subsentient> I transferred it to C++, thinking that some of the namespace stuff etc might help me to save it, but fuck it, it's unholy.
[12:55:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> bummer
[12:57:21] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: Know all those times I disconnect? I don't ever close NEXUS. It *crashes*.
[12:57:28] <TheMightyBuzzard> oh fun
[12:57:41] <Subsentient> So yeah, usually with a segfault or a broken pipe
[12:57:49] <Subsentient> So it's gonna get en-Perl-inated.
[12:57:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> considered just using our znc server? it does the same thing mostly.
[12:58:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> i mean you can be connected with multiple clients and they all get stuff sent to them.
[12:58:33] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: I'm also in Freenode and occasionally other networks. And, despite the terrible code, NEXUS is good at merging multiple simultanious clients seamlessly.
[12:58:39] <TheMightyBuzzard> ahh

[12:59:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> fair warning, the IRC module dependencies are the majority of what hogs up ram on MrPlow
[13:00:14] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: I don't do that pansy ass shit. I'll just write it using socket calls. I notice Perl doesn't need a module for raw socket access, unlike python.
[13:00:40] <Subsentient> aqu4bot's IRC core was written from scratch, and NEXUS shares some code from aqu4bot for that reason.
[13:01:44] <TheMightyBuzzard> roger
[13:02:04] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: In Python, everyone says "ohh, just use Twisted for networking, not the socket module!". It's an EXTERNAL DEPENDENCY. There are few things I hate more than dependencies.
[13:02:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> me, i don't like reinventing the wheel if i don't have a pressing reason to so i used the modules.
[13:02:51] <Subsentient> I have a good understanding of the IRC protocol, so it's not hard for me to do it myself, and usually a lot more efficient.
[13:03:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> nod nod. i haven't bothered with low level IRC stuff since i was a wee little hacker douche back in the 90s
[13:03:53] <TheMightyBuzzard> bit out of my wheelhouse nowadays
[13:07:13] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: :^)
[13:07:44] <Subsentient> TheMightyBuzzard: I like IRC's protocol. It's a nice little text protocol. Compared to the living hell of Warzone 2100's binary lobby protocol, eeeeuuuuggghhh, it's heaven.
[13:09:37] <TheMightyBuzzard> personally, i'm not a low level protocol enjoying person anymore. hate having to figure out stuff that someone's already shared a solid way to deal with.
[13:10:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> i mean it's a good way to sink your teeth into a new language but it's not something i do for fun.
[13:10:32] <TheMightyBuzzard> or ever on a production system.

[15:15:57] <Runaway1956> I'm reading that article, trying to figure exactly what the propaganda slant is on it - something ain't right with it.
[15:17:07] <SoyCow01010110> Well. Linus doesn't appear to care much for politics of any kind. Open source does tend to carry those around whereever it goes.
[15:17:13] <Runaway1956> Sometimes, you can repeat what another person has said, but make it mean something different.
[15:18:03] <Runaway1956> Yeah, but, one line in the article bugs me - "Software doesn't want to be free, necessarily."
[15:18:14] <Runaway1956> There's something of a spin in that.
[15:18:15] <SoyCow01010110> I've read that he open sourced the kernel to gather feedback and to have it available for peer review[to find bugs]
[15:18:32] <Runaway1956> Yep.
[15:19:10] <Runaway1956> He also states quite clearly, he doesn't give a damn what anyone else does with the software - that is, no one needs to pay him, or ask permission to use it, or anything like that
[15:19:17] <SoyCow01010110> Software being an inanimate object. I doubt it 'wants' anything.
[15:19:46] <SoyCow01010110> The people who write it sure do want different things.
[15:19:47] <Runaway1956> So, politics or not, he's bought into more than 80% of the open source philosophy.
[15:20:42] <Runaway1956> Good article, despite my suspicion of a spin.

[16:19:28] <Runaway1956> I look at stuff, she has a cheap imitation of a good heat sink.
[16:19:46] <Runaway1956> Grab an old but reliable Thermaltake, tell her I want to install it.
[16:20:13] <Runaway1956> Pull her old heat sink loose, and she only has about 60% coverage of Arctic Silver.
[16:20:16] <Runaway1956> DUHHH!
[16:20:58] <Runaway1956> I put "excessive" Arctic Silver on both the CPU and the heat sink, put it in place, lift it up, and I can SEE that I have adequate coverage.

[23:06:05] <takyon> yikes @soyguest
[23:06:24] <cmn32480> ever wanna raeach out and punch someone?
[23:06:29] <takyon> Gravis: I submitted a story about that Atlas robot
[23:06:32] <cmn32480> other than mne, I mean
[23:06:44] <takyon> cmn32480: Look at the photographing the police story and you tell me
[23:06:55] <cmn32480> fair enough
[23:07:01] <takyon> I mean the comments
[23:07:07] <cmn32480> I read that already... and was considering giving you a -1 Overrated mod...
[23:07:27] <takyon> fuck you too
[23:07:33] <takyon> want to test my extension?
[23:08:32] <takyon> it adds submission draft capability. I want it tested by at least one other person trying to break it before I push it out
[23:08:41] <takyon> I don't want to deliver more broken stuff into Gravis's hands
[23:08:55] <paulej72> yem
[23:09:07] <Gravis> takyon: i am the king of breaking things. :)
[23:09:29] <AndyTheAbsurd> Shortest submission ever? https://twitter.com
[23:09:30] <NotAnymore> ^ 03Coraline Ada Ehmke on Twitter: "I'm thrilled to announce that I will be joining the team at @github next month to work on community management and anti-harassment tools."
[23:09:38] <takyon> was that a yes, you want it, paulej72?
[23:09:42] <AndyTheAbsurd> Sure to get TheMightyBuzzard riled up!
[23:10:00] <paulej72> yum
[23:10:08] <paulej72> not yes
[23:10:09] <takyon> is that the submission? that's how it should be posted

[23:10:22] * paulej72 is eating dinner
[23:10:43] <cmn32480> AndyTheAbsurd, definetly sub that
[23:10:46] <Gravis> "CoralineAda has 104 repositories written in Ruby, JavaScript, and CSS" <-- eww
[23:10:47] <takyon> you should get the webcam and charge us to watch you eat dinneer
[23:10:48] <cmn32480> beat TMB to it
[23:11:08] <takyon> I hope CSS4 will be Turing-complete
[23:12:00] <Gravis> takyon: i just want it to be able to handle just enough so that javascript is only needed for nefarious scripting
[23:12:29] * cmn32480 is gonna shower before dinner
[23:12:35] <takyon> on that note Gravis, the site crew are trying to make comment expansion/minimization using pure CSS
[23:12:49] <cmn32480> where can I get a copy takyon? v11 in your journal or you wanna email it to me?
[23:13:00] <takyon> i'll email it to you
[23:13:09] <cmn32480> 10-4. I'll lok at it after dinner
[23:13:44] <Gravis> takyon: for some reason, the expand/contract buttons disappear if i login to SN
[23:14:06] <takyon> that's whack. do you allow scripts on SoylentNews?
[23:14:55] <Gravis> takyon: it even happens in incognito mode
[23:15:21] <Gravis> takyon: everything normal, just logon and poof they are gone
[23:15:47] <takyon> so you've been going without comment expansion features for weeks? or just browse at -1?
[23:16:04] <Gravis> takyon: weeks? it's been like this since i joined
[23:16:17] <takyon> ehehh. many weeks
[23:16:23] <Gravis> months
[23:16:28] <paulej72> Gravis: is you mode set to Improved threaded?
[23:17:34] <paulej72> Gravis your mode is set to nested which does not have collapsed comments
[23:18:21] <AndyTheAbsurd> cmn32480: subbed...mostly by pasting in the relevant parts of my IRC log.
[23:18:22] <Gravis> paulej72: how do i change it?
[23:18:52] <Gravis> found it
[23:19:20] <Gravis> paulej72: so why is it that nested doesn't let you collapse comments?
[23:19:28] <paulej72> go in to any atricle and and just above comment selcext Improved treaded and check save and cahnge
[23:20:12] <paulej72> becasue we only added the js to improved threaded. The new version works for all modes, but we only have three. flat threaded and no comments
[23:20:39] <paulej72> we really can't tell the difference between threaded and nested
[23:20:41] <Gravis> well... wtf does nested mode do?
[23:20:49] <paulej72> exactly
[23:20:56] <Gravis> ok... wtf
[23:21:17] <Gravis> i think nested was just the default at the time. you need some damn descriptions for the modes
[23:21:43] <takyon> that makes sense. I've used these settings: http://puu.sh
[23:22:12] <takyon> how does your brand new SoylentNews experience feel Gravis?
[23:22:42] <paulej72> Gravis: when we added improved threaded we switched eveyone that was on the old default of threaded to the new version
[23:26:30] <takyon> Gravis is completely floored. It's like the whole universe has opened up to him
[23:27:06] <paulej72> mmmmmsmmsmsmms

[23:32:59] * AndyTheAbsurd is too lazy right now to write up a decent sub himself for that
[23:33:29] <takyon> I posted in the comments of the previous apple article
[23:33:38] <takyon> the number is actually 13 apparently
[23:46:38] <Gravis> takyon: it's nice but i wish clicking or double clicking the red subject bar would expand/collapse messages
[23:47:09] <Gravis> takyon: the same was it does with some window managers
[23:47:50] <takyon> I'm seeing if I can make a script just for you, Gravis, to make that happen
[23:47:54] <takyon> give me a couple minutes
[23:48:26] <Gravis> takyon: pandering will get you... everywhere.
[23:49:16] <takyon> it's not too obvious in chrome's HTML inspector, might load it up in firefox instead
[23:49:34] * chromas wonders what pandering to Gravis could possibly get anyone ;)
[23:49:58] <takyon> actually I'm betting it's an eventlistener, which is why i'm not seeing an attribute
[23:50:04] <Gravis> odd... i thought the ole buzzards of SN would have downmodded me. https://soylentnews.org

[23:50:13] <takyon> I just want to copy the eventlistener from +/- to the title bar
[23:50:20] <takyon> nah that was a good comment
[23:51:23] <Gravis> takyon: you know... when you say things like that... i just hurts me.
[23:51:45] <Gravis> ;)
[23:51:45] <takyon> you wanted the downmod but we weren't willing
[23:51:52] <takyon> you wanted the d
[23:53:09] <Gravis> takyon: nah... i just don't react well to positive feedback.
[23:54:22] <Gravis> "thanks for helping me! the world needs more people like you." "fuck off, you loon!"
