Some of the simplest design decisions trap me in... i don't know what, but it always feels like -- even with testing and revision control support -- I will get it wrong and not be able to fix it.
08:31
< Thalass>
heh
08:33
<~Vornicus>
And after as long as I've been doing this, this shouldn't be a problem any more. I know perfectly well I can change a design. I know perfectly well that I can easily have diffs that cover 90% of a file and get it right the first time.
08:33
<~Vornicus>
And I know that a lot of design decisions /have no wrong answer/.
08:33
<~Vornicus>
But dammit

Whelp.

< JustBob>
I've finally gotten MatLab to choke on a problem.
11:31
< Shiz>
what do you mean 'finally'
11:31
< Shiz>
i get that all the time
11:31
< JustBob>
Maybe I should use larger increments, and refrain from a value array that's, hrm. 1.5e7 elements along.
11:31
< JustBob>
Pity, really, that it still completely fucking fails to solve the problem I desire.
11:34
< RichyB>
1.5e7 elements? That would be only 60-240MB of RAM if it's dense, depending on format.
11:34
< RichyB>
(32-bit float vs 64-bit complex double)
11:34
< Shiz>
>matlab >dense
11:34
< Shiz>
you're a joker richyb
11:35
< RichyB>
Is this a dynamically-typed "array" as opposed to a contiguous matrix with a fixed numerical format?
11:36
< JustBob>
It's a list of all values from 0 to 150, in 1e-5 increments.
11:37
< JustBob>
Make that 1e-3, since I quit caring.

That's a great message. :D

That's a meme?
15:20

No, it isn't.

Assuming that you go by the original definition, a reproducibly-transmissable piece of information that replicates inside humans' heads, yes it is.

Huh, I think for the first time I can remember I am genuinely disappointed with git.
19:38
<@TheWatcher>
typoing `git pish` does not make it respond "Tosh!"
19:39
< ErikMesoy>
Can't you do something like this? https://twitter.com/chris__martin/status/420992421673988096
19:39
<@TheWatcher>
That would be entirely silly.
19:41

I recall someone being annoyed with overused memes earlier
20:54
<&McMartin>
I'm pretty much ready for the "doge" meme to be poisoned by a Medici assassin
20:57
< ErikMesoy>
McMartin: It's not worthy of a Medici assassin.
20:57
< ErikMesoy>
Just leave a bearetrap or something.
20:58
<&McMartin>
Well, part of my annoyance is that the "doge" meme does not involve Renaissance-era Italian merchant princes
20:58
< ErikMesoy>
Indeed.
20:59
< ErikMesoy>
And yet people think it's funny that way: "I misspelled this one word as this other word. Oh, look, now I'm dragging connotations from the second word back onto the first word. Isn't this amusing?"
20:59
<&McMartin>
I got the impression that the appeal was that it was another sanctioned form of Internet Baby Talk, a la lolcats
21:07
<~Vornicus>
I haven't even seen that much lolcat lately
21:08
<@Azash>
I got the impression that the appeal was that it's quite unique
21:08
<@Azash>
¯\_(ã)_/¯
21:09
< abudhabi_>
>unique
21:09
< abudhabi_>
>virulent memes
21:09
< abudhabi_>
That's not how it works!
21:09
<@Azash>
That's also not how greentext works fwiw
21:09
< ErikMesoy>
4chanspeak is pretty expressive sometimes.
21:09
< abudhabi_>
The whole point of how it works is that someone creates a brain-parasite and it spreads to people.
21:09
< ErikMesoy>
You can mock a concept just by sticking > in fron
21:09
< ErikMesoy>
+t
21:09
< abudhabi_>
And everyone gets a copy, with mutations.
21:10
< ErikMesoy>
Wolf Tivy was commenting on this the other day when he said:
21:10
< ErikMesoy>
>rights
21:10
<@Azash>
ErikMesoy: The original idea is that > is used for quoting
21:10
<@Azash>
As such people used them to infer things from statements that might not even have been intended
21:10
< ErikMesoy>
There's also >implying
21:10
< ErikMesoy>
and the >be anon, have extended greentext narrative
21:12
<@froztbyte>
Azash: are you aware of the fact that this is actually this particular meme's second round on the internet?
21:13
<@froztbyte>
it has already once before been relegated to dusty attics
21:13
<@froztbyte>
and I've started seeing soccermoms use it
21:13
<@Azash>
Which one specifically?
21:13
<@froztbyte>
so I'm pretty sure the cringe will murder it soon
21:13
<@froztbyte>
Azash: doge
21:13
<@Azash>
Wasn't aware of that
21:13
<@Azash>
Also who cares who uses a meme?
21:14
<@froztbyte>
those who (collectively, as a cultural group) create it
21:14
<@froztbyte>
"this is ours and when you use it wrong, we will discard it"
21:14
<@froztbyte>
to put words to it
21:14
< abudhabi_>
Azash: Oldfags.
21:15
<@froztbyte>
it's kinda awesome to see the internet get all sociopathic about things
21:15
< ErikMesoy>
http://www.businessinsider.com/doge-memes-congress-steve-stockman-massie-2013-12 "Much bipartisanship. Very spending. Wow."
21:15
< ErikMesoy>
(Congress Has Finally Discovered 'Doge,' And It's Going About As Badly As You Would Expect)
21:15
<@froztbyte>
case in point
21:16
<&McMartin>
See, I remember when it was actually funny that one of Nancy Pelosi's staffers casually rickrolled one of the daily updates
21:16
<&McMartin>
Which was "yeah, this is now Done, but that was pretty good"
21:16
<@froztbyte>
hehe
21:16
<@froztbyte>
McMartin: ooooh
21:16
<@Azash>
froztbyte: Yeah, and those people always struck me as either ignorant or petty
21:16
<@froztbyte>
McMartin: new meme idea~!
21:17
<@froztbyte>
McMartin: Done Doge!~!
21:17
<@Azash>
abudhabi_: Itty bitty baby
21:17
<@froztbyte>
Azash: tldc
21:17
<&McMartin>
froztbyte: I guess what I'm saying is that congresspeople discovering memes is so 2009
21:17
<&McMartin>
Meta-hipsterism is hard work >_<
21:17
<@froztbyte>
Azash: don't try to apply (your) rationality to groupthink
21:17
<@froztbyte>
Azash: it's actually been proven that groupthink has significantly different values to a single person
21:18
<@froztbyte>
McMartin: that's because you have to step down
21:18
< ErikMesoy>
froztbyte: Doneward Doge?
21:18
<@froztbyte>
McMartin: should be doing metameta-hipsterism
21:18
<@froztbyte>
ErikMesoy: haha
