egg changed the topic of #principia to: Logs: https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/principia | <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…

⟨Al2Me6⟩ @egg, I figured I should ask you since you wrote an entire paper about cube roots -- what would be the computationally cheapest way to compute the cbrt of a number on [0, 1]?
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ in binary64? use the one in Principia :-p
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ in binary64 on a modern machine? use the one in Principia :-p (edited)
<queqiao-_>
⟨Al2Me6⟩ Unfortunately using f32 😅
<queqiao-_>
⟨Al2Me6⟩ Unfortunately using f32 and also compiled to WebAssembly 😅 (edited)
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ as the target precision, or as the working precision
<queqiao-_>
⟨Al2Me6⟩ I think you are way overestimating my precision requirements
<queqiao-_>
⟨Al2Me6⟩ (And also my competence)
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ the question is « can you work in binary64 to get your binary32 result »
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ if it’s not faithfully rounded you’re not even trying (and 32 shouldn’t be too hard to get correct, you can even test it exhaustively)

⟨Butcher⟩ Fine, she went to the vet for neuter, they thought she was male at first because she's so big. 😆
<UmbralRaptop>
uh
<queqiao-_>
⟨Rad⟩ Stupid question, why is this account labeled as a bot? Is there someone who has the bot do thing and can send messages like normal too?
<queqiao-_>
⟨siimav⟩ @egg maybe it's worth adding an "about me" description to the bot account?
<queqiao-_>

<queqiao-_>
⟨Rad⟩ So it's the Principia dev? Why does he use the bot account?
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ No, it's a bridge to the IRC channel
<queqiao-_>
⟨Rad⟩ Ah, ok

⟨Soviet Onion⟩ because he once disrespected Principia, and egg banished him to be a bot
<queqiao-_>
⟨Soviet Onion⟩ \s

⟨Butcher⟩ The cat had moved on from Ada to more concerning publications.
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ Oh, while you are asking the questions every newcomer asks :
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ No, you can’t launch into the orbital plane of the moon from Cape Canaveral (except for a short while every 18 years).
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ Try Kourou, it’s not as much of a learning cliff.
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ I haven’t found a trivial way to add a status or a bio to the bot
<queqiao-_>
⟨siimav⟩ Huh
<queqiao-_>
⟨kwat⟩ is there a way to see a target orbit while im landed? or do i have to go to the tracking station for that.
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ there isn’t, but maybe we should add that
<queqiao-_>
⟨egg⟩ I think there isn’t, but maybe we should add that (edited)
<queqiao-_>
⟨Paculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ Does stock have that? I don't remember
<queqiao-_>
⟨Soviet Onion⟩ I don't think so?
<queqiao-_>
⟨Soviet Onion⟩ I don't think any orbit is visible while landed, but only when in map view

⟨Benjamin⟩ Would this be a good place to ask how to read the principia space navball?
