Any Linux kernel gurus here? I'm down to the wire with this kernel project. Right now I'm just trying to disable sysenter support.

McM|travails: the work you did on coming up with "knobs" that describe various types of platforming physics - is that published?

<@iospace>
there's a guy in #osdev on freenode called "i-love-boobies", and my GF pretty much summed it up well: "And I wonder why there's not so many women in the field"
02:17
<&ToxicFrog>
Yeah, there's a reason symbol uses a gender-indeterminate name most places on the internet
02:18

Also the disambigs on the top of the "Booby" page on wikipedia are spectacular. "This article is about the seabird. For the part of human anatomy, see breast."

iospace is lesbian? Or a guy? I thought (s)he was a woman from another comment...
02:43
<@Azash>
It doesn't seem that relevant
02:43
<@iospace>
lesbian?
02:44
<@Azash>
However, thanks for the hint about osdev
02:45
<@iospace>
Azash: normally it's not bad
02:46
<@iospace>
then again i just idle atm

It's freenode, I prepared myself

i'm also on #edev, but that's not as active

Not explicitly, but I can probably assemble my notes on it.

... here or on freenode?
04:06
<~Vornicus>
freenode
04:06
<@iospace>
ah
04:12
<&ToxicFrog>
When I hear #math I generally think here
04:18
<@iospace>
yeah
04:20
<@Azash>
#math: Not even once
04:23
<@Azash>
Do you guys know any good math resources? Like high school/undergrad level?
04:23
<@Azash>
Er
04:24
<@Azash>
I should probably ask there
04:25 * rms is upset that "abduct a chinese kid" came to mind
04:26
<@Azash>
Hehe
04:27
<~Vornicus>
I like that plan.
04:27
<~Vornicus>
I am a good math resource.
04:28
<~Vornicus>
unfortunately I don't really know that many actual places to go. purplemath I think was one?

<@simon`>
something cool occurred: I realized I have to knapsack something in my bachelor's project.
05:48
<@simon`>
but it isn't exactly knapsack. it's the bin packing problem with an extra constraint
05:50
<@simon`>
basically: I have a dependency-tree where one statement will depend on another
05:53
<@simon`>
each statement has a size, and I must place statements in bins with equal space so the wasted space is minimal, and so no statement in bin n depends on a statement in a bin m >= n
05:53
<@simon`>
without the extra constraint I'd just have to distribute them in bins and minimize the wasted space
05:55
<@simon`>
but if I place A in bin 1, and B and C depend on A, then depending on the number and sizes of statements that depend on B and C, choosing B and C to go in bin 2 will also affect the result.
05:57
<@simon`>
I'm unsure if this looks most like a special case of the bin packing problem, or if it looks more like an "optimal topological ordering" where I haven't got a good fitness function.
05:58
<@simon`>
in either case, it feels sort of good to know that the problem I was trying to solve is NP-hard, so any solution I come up with is sub-optimal. ;-P
