< simon_>
how would you store a URL with punycodes?
14:25
<&[R]>
What problems do you forsee with storing them as you had gotten them?
14:26
< simon_>
old browsers won't be able to navigate to them?
14:26
< simon_>
sorry
14:26
< simon_>
people enter them without the punycodes.
14:27
< simon_>
if I store the un-encoded URLs, old browsers might fail to navigate to them.
14:27
< simon_>
if I store the encoded URLs, they'll show up funny.
14:27
<&[R]>
So them encoded and display them decoded?
14:27
< simon_>
if I store the un-encoded URLs and make my template macros for producing hyperlinks puny-encode links automatically, I should get the best of both worlds.
14:28
< simon_>
yeah, I wonder which is better: store them as xn--5cab8c.dk and they'll show up funny in some places if a template forgets to use the link-tag helper.
14:29
< simon_>
and store them as æøå.dk and they'll show up nicely but might not work for older browsers.
14:29
< simon_>
I'll investigate what coverage of unicode in URLs browses have nowaday.

...I guess this should have occurred to me earlier that yes this is in fact what happens
21:00
<~Vornicus>
Adding a point to a planar mesh made entirely of triangles adds exactly the same number of faces and edges no matter whether it lands on a face or an edge
22:10 * Vornicus gets a hunch, ponders
22:13
<~Vornicus>
on-edge was green *anyway* before I started writing the on-edge detection system. What's the dangerous situation I was thinking about when deciding to make it explicit that this is a thing I'm doing?
22:13
<~Vornicus>
On edge detection I felt I needed because otherwise I make degenerate triangles
22:14
<~Vornicus>
But I already get pretty spectacularly degenerate triangles.
22:15
<~Vornicus>
Infinitely large ones, that is, as opposed to ones of area zero
22:16
<~Vornicus>
I suppose in both cases I get the same vague category of circumcircle - a straight line

<@TheWatcher>
Y'know, if you were a less stable mind, I'd wonder if you were on the path to becoming some kind of new TIMECUBE guy. ALL REALITY IS AN INFINITE DEGENERATE TIME TRIANGLE
22:27
<~Vornicus>
No I only drive other people insane
22:27
<&McMartin>
Why isn't the circumcircle of an area-zero triangle a point?
22:27
<~Vornicus>
Because it's the *circum*circle
22:27
<~Vornicus>
it has to go through all three corners
22:28
<~Vornicus>
And an area-zero triangle doesn't mean the corners are coincident - just that they are collinear
22:28
<&McMartin>
OK, new question: why wouldn't that be a circle that takes the two most distant points as a diameter
22:28
<&McMartin>
Oh, go through.
22:28
<&McMartin>
OK.
22:28
<~Vornicus>
Because that doesn't go through the third cor-- right
22:29
<&McMartin>
That said, I see three cases here
22:30
<&McMartin>
Though I guess the cases rely on it being possible for points to coincide

This has also led me to this neat diagram. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumscribed_circle#/media/File:Kepler_constant_inverse.svg
22:44
<~Vornicus>
Yeah. In this case it is impossible for three points to coincice
22:44
<~Vornicus>
I have several special cases though: one finite point, two finite points, and now degenerate
22:45
<~Vornicus>
Or rather, three finite points that are collinear
22:45
<~Vornicus>
also my wife just went me this picture from an art supply store: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-sKebs9-bXXM/XJFw1WkuYeI/AAAAAAAAYks/8_NB8UzOhEc2ILuQWnAZ0QbE6MFiDSDQwCK8BGAs/s0/2019-03-19.jpg

Sadly, as listed, vintage computer folks would read that sign as meaning "FOR PARTS ONLY"

You would be quite unlikely to get Sid Meier's cowboys out of that puppy

That atari's case is in good shape, at least
