raptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Fréchet. We currently target 1.5.1, 1.6.1, and 1.7.x. <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly… | <egg> also 4e16 m * 2^-52 is uncomfortably large

<egg> you want ECSA
<egg> doing Mars-CSA will put you parallel to a plane in which you are not, which is not helpful because you'll stop being in that plane as your move along the orbit
<egg> ECSA puts you in the ecliptic
<egg> that's pretty close to where you want to be

<discord-_> F​alcon. — so i launched right when it was ECSA and the planes were aligned, it dips below the plane of mars right in the area i need it to be aligned, lol
<discord-_> F​alcon. — guess i will try eggs recommendation now which is MCSA
<discord-_> D​amien. — @Falcon did you launch when the earth was at the an/dn of its orbit relative to mars?
<discord-_> F​alcon. — no, this was when I was able to roll out my vehicle
<discord-_> D​amien. — because if not then you can't actually launch perfectly into plane with it
<discord-_> F​alcon. — i dont even know how to check the AN/DN of planets in Principia lol
<discord-_> D​amien. — not sure you easily can
<discord-_> D​amien. — stuff like that is why a transfer window planner is more complicated than we think
<discord-_> F​alcon. — well Kerbal alarm clock said that the window was now... im actually launching 8 days prior to what mech jeb is saying
<egg|cell|egg> Falcon, I recommended ECSA for the launch plane, not MCSA
<egg|cell|egg> MCSA for the transfer
<discord-_> F​alcon. — Is this bot sentient or something wtf...
<discord-_> n​eph. — This is endlessly amusing
<discord-_> D​amien. — @Falcon it's advanced AI
<discord-_> F​alcon. — freaking me the heck out
<discord-_> F​alcon. — xD
<discord-_> n​eph. — @Falcon Are you familiar with GPT-2?
<discord-_> F​alcon. — nope
<discord-_> F​alcon. — but I like AI in certain scenerios, imitating humans isnt one...
<discord-_> n​eph. — The bot's been trained on the channel backlog. If you want to see more of this kind of ai in action, here's one of my favorite subs: https://www.reddit.com/r/SubSimulatorGPT2/ (all robots)
<discord-_> n​eph. — It's proven to be so helpful for discussion & debugging that the devs keep it around in this channel.
<discord-_> n​eph. — We love you, IRC bot ❤️
<discord-_> n​eph. — But don't be fooled, no matter what it says or how advanced it seems, it's just a highly-sophisticated bot.
<discord-_> M​yshiko. — Let’s call our bot “Lt. Commander Data”

<discord-_> S​ir Mortimer. — ah, the bot is back. it doesn't speak often, I guess it's offline most of the time
<discord-_> e​gg. — @Falcon the bot is a bridge to IRC
<discord-_> e​gg. — and the egg who talks through the bot is me
<discord-_> F​alcon. — IRC?
<discord-_> e​gg. — internet relay chat
<discord-_> e​gg. — @Sir Mortimer I try to keep it online
<discord-_> e​gg. — but it runs on my machine, which isn't great operationally
