bofh: argh smol might actually be too smol for denormals? (trying with 2 * least positive magnitude)
<egg>
wait that's not an issue with smol, it's an issue with the σ

UmbralRaptor: The visible emission lines of a fluorescent lamp span about, uh, 12-15 little-fingernail-at-arm's-lengths.
<Ellied>
the exact detail you can resolve depends on a lot of other things, namely how small and bright the source is
<Ellied>
for an arbitrarily distant and arbitrarily bright source, the features you can make out will be about the same as if you printed the spectrum on a post-it note (or maybe a bit larger than that) and held it at arm's length.
<UmbralRaptor>
Better than I expected.

bofh: ok wow it turns that this needs rescaling outside of [0x1p-225, 0x1p237] (tightening the interval to powers of 2 because too lazy to do the over/underflow analysis while tracking roundings)
<egg|zzz|egg>
bofh: this seems annoying because I don't think it's wide enough to get away with just one scaling for the smol inputs and one for the large ones...

Sarbian: AAAAAAAA the 1.4.3 mentions krakensbane and floating origin, did they change anything there? D:
<egg|zzz|egg>
awang_: you said you always have time for KSP, would you have time to eggstensively test things with 1.4.3?
<egg|zzz|egg>
awang_: in particular one of the devnotes mentioned ladders so it would be useful to know whether they fixed/modified the infamous ladder force
<egg|zzz|egg>
awang_: and also if they touched krakensbane/floating origin in any way everything needs manual testing

[#1415] title: Vessel relative velocities change when switching to EVA | Park 2 vessels close to each other with as less relative speed as possible. Perform EVA from anyone of the vessels. The other vessel starts moving away with relative speed of about 2-3 m/s (as reported by the target frame navball.)

Unicode has many knives, but this one gets used like that in a few places.
<UmbralRaptop>
I'm not sure how to transliterate that.
<egg|zzz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: so, first you need to conjugate it
<egg|zzz|egg>
aiui you want G-stem (base), present, 3rd pers. sing. (masc.? fem.? I have no idea what the gender of iṣṣūru (bird) is), so idakāšū or idakāšā
<egg|zzz|egg>
wait no the first a doesn't stay long
<whitequark>
uhm
<whitequark>
egg why do you know akkadian
<egg|zzz|egg>
whitequark: I don't I'm just scrambling to figure out how to conjugate "the bird stabs" by digging through wikipedia + akkadian dictionary + upenn + ucla + random things

UmbralRaptop: so idakašū or idakašā
<egg|zzz|egg>
whitequark: I mean I should learn it properly tbh
<egg|zzz|egg>
whitequark: and I can't find that verb in any transcription either which makes it hard to check >_>
<egg|zzz|egg>
gah cdli ucla your search is slow
<egg|zzz|egg>
UmbralRaptop: wait no I was looking at plural, since it's singular the gender doesn't matter
<UmbralRaptop>
Hah!
<egg|zzz|egg>
and it's idakaš
<egg|zzz|egg>
no idea how you'd idiomatically split that one in signs tho
<UmbralRaptop>
(Well, only singular until the dromeosaur collective arrives)
