12:31 <egg|anbo|egg> oh wow that's a lot of egg joinspam

13:43 <e_14159_> How many egg joinspams do we need to make omelettes with spam?

15:56 <B787_300> bofh^28: that fake moon thing is a joke. The details in other reporting day it is a LEO satellite. Which means it won't be visible all night and even if they were to put it I MEO or GEO it wouldn't work as it would have to be a fucking HUGE satellite to reflect that much light all night. Also even MEO and GEO goes through eclipse so it wouldn't be able to illuminate at night 100% of the time. All in all I think it is more of a joke

15:56 <B787_300> or a way to get people to invest in the city

17:45 <UmbralRaptop> egg|anbo|egg: Does ANBOcat understand geopotentials now?

18:27 <egg|anbo|egg> bofh^28: oops, microsoft's std::sin is twice as fast as our half-precision sincos >_>

18:56 <bofh^28> egg|anbo|egg: what the hell, I'm really curious how they manage that.

18:57 <egg|anbo|egg> bofh^28: possibly by using avx which i don't

18:57 <egg|anbo|egg> bofh^28: or by being smart which i am not

19:02 <bofh^28> egg|anbo|egg: I'm not sure how AVX helps you here since std::sin is ultimately scalar

19:03 <bofh^28> and like, I can't imagine how to get *simpler* than your half-prec sin.

19:03 <bofh^28> tbh I kinda want to throw MSVCRwhatever.dll into a disassembler now.

19:07 <bofh^28> UmbralRaptop: I'll be fine, I worry for so many in much worse / more precarious positions than myself. :/

19:15 <UmbralRaptop> (Ellied also?)

19:24 <egg|cell|egg> What did the us do again

19:26 <egg|cell|egg> Bofh: well I can see it in the debugger

19:30 <UmbralRaptop> https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/21/us/politics/transgender-trump-administration-sex-definition.html

20:06 <bofh^28> egg|anbo|egg: I mean I want an actual code disassembly, not just a live-step.

20:17 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: well, there's a disassembly window in the debugger

20:32 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: TIL the degree Dornic

20:32 <egg|zz|egg> https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/FR/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:52016XC0908(01)&from=EN

20:32 <egg|zz|egg> EU regulation on Brillat-Savarin

20:38 <bofh^28> Dornic?

20:40 <egg|zz|egg> yes

20:41 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degr%C3%A9_Dornic

20:41 <egg|zz|egg> note: this page does not eggsist in english

20:42 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: ate some Brillat-Savarin today (it's good)

20:43 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: and ended up reading the relevant EU text

20:45 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: if it is "refined", the word "refined" must be written in the same field of view as "Brillat-Savarin" and in a font no smaller than, but smaller than, half that of "Brillat-Savarin

20:45 <egg|zz|egg> "

20:46 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: also if it is cut, the cut must respect the cheese, that is, be in sectors cut along plane(s) going through the cylinder axis

20:46 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: the cylinder may be slightly concave,

20:48 <bofh^28> egg|zz|egg: Brillat-Savarin sounds tasty from what I'm reading.

20:49 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: yes

20:49 <egg|zz|egg> it is

20:56 <bofh^28> also rofl at the font requirements

20:56 <bofh^28> that's absolutely amazing.

21:11 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: lots of fun stuff

21:12 <egg|zz|egg> the list of villages that may produce it, the dimensions for a small or a large Brillat-Savarin, etc.

21:12 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: and yes, the acidity controls of the milk

21:13 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: see 3.3 alinea 3 item 2 for the acidity in degrees Dornic https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/FR/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:52016XC0908(01)&from=EN

21:19 <bofh^28> egg|zz|egg: so 1°D is just 0.1g/L of acide lactique? this seems like a nice and very sane unit (it's just a molarity)

21:19 <bofh^28> er, lactic acid*

21:19 <egg|zz|egg> yes

21:23 <egg|zz|egg> whitequark: bofh^28: fun french words: gazole, fioul, mazout

21:23 <egg|zz|egg> (yes those come from gas oil, fuel, мазут)

21:24 <bofh^28> rofl

21:25 <whitequark> egg|zz|egg: *huh*

21:25 <whitequark> I had no idea it goes the other way too

21:25 <egg|zz|egg> whitequark: see, you get metro entrances, we get the word mazout :D

21:27 <egg|zz|egg> whitequark: other fun FR-RU things: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pont_Alexandre_III https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_Bridge,_Saint_Petersburg (cc bofh^28)

21:27 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: whitequark: oh another fun word in fr is "pull", pronounced [pyl]

21:28 <bofh^28> WTF is that word

21:29 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: whitequark: short for "pull-over", pronounced [pylɔvɛʁ] or maybe [pylovɛʁ]

21:29 <egg|zz|egg> (but most commonly "pull" now)

21:30 <bofh^28> ahhhhh

21:34 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: whitequark: there are also words that went back-and-forth

21:37 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: whitequark: tunnel [tynɛl], from en tunnel, from french "tonnelle" [tɔnɛl] (cask when imported to en, still exists in fr meaning pergola) https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/tunnel#English

21:54 <egg|zz|egg> whitequark: the fun thing of course is that "fioul" in fr specifically means fuel oil (i.e. it's a synonym of mazout), not any fuel

21:55 <egg|zz|egg> whitequark: much like "pull" doesn't have much to do with the verb to pull, it's just a pull-over

22:16 <iximeow> hey..

23:16 <SnoopJeDi> UmbralRaptop, helps a lot to talk to people who leave and get non-academic jobs

23:16 <UmbralRaptop> yeah

23:16 <UmbralRaptop> Still lots of time at least.

23:25 <egg|zz|egg> UmbralRaptop: have you talked to the swiss crow btw

23:30 <UmbralRaptop> egg|zz|egg: er, different field so not really applicable

23:30 <egg|zz|egg> hm

23:30 <egg|zz|egg> UmbralRaptop: you used to be in galaxies though right?

23:30 <egg|zz|egg> UmbralRaptop: are there eggsoplanetologists in CH?

23:31 <egg|zz|egg> UmbralRaptop: I mean I guess you'll get to meet them in Wien

23:31 <UmbralRaptop> egg|zz|egg: maybe a few. I think more at u^b than ETHZ

23:32 <egg|zz|egg> UmbralRaptop: which one is that again

23:32 <egg|zz|egg> basel?

23:33 <egg|zz|egg> (or bern? there are a lot of b cities)

23:33 <UmbralRaptop> Bern

23:37 <SnoopJeDi> ...do they stylize the university with a superscript?

23:37 <SnoopJeDi> uᵇ?

23:38 <SnoopJeDi> ffs, they do

23:40 <UmbralRaptop> Yep!

23:42 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: FMA

23:43 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: (re. how AVX helps you)

23:44 <bofh^28> egg|zz|egg: for accuracy, yes, and it does give you a speedup, but 2x?

23:54 <egg|zz|egg> bofh^28: dunno

23:54 <bofh^28> egg|zz|egg: hrm, let me test.
