Q:	How many supply-siders does it take to change a light bulb?
A:	None.  The darkness will cause the light bulb to change by itself.

 00:00 < matches> Ah, good old copy paste and naming variables 'n' and 'm'
 00:01 < matches> Mever fails to segfault
+01:05 < matches> PN Yields: 1.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
+01:05 < matches> PN is: 1
+01:06 < matches> Doubles Yield: inf
+01:06 < matches> TAKE THAT KAHAN
+01:06 < matches> Hmm
+01:06 < matches> I could multithread the paranoid number...
+01:07 < matches> At least, the Convert to double part of it
+01:11 < matches> Ah, it fails on the very next test though
+01:11  * matches regrest uncommenting the "return 0;"
+01:11 < matches> grects
+01:11 < matches> regrects
+01:11 < matches> dammit
+01:11 < matches> it is too aerly for this
+01:21 < matches> So ipython stores pngs as giant base64 encoded strings
+01:21 < matches> In JSON format
+01:21  * matches shudders at the commit diff
+01:23 < matches> Good luck sulix
+09:47 < sulix> "Bang, zoom, straight to the rounding error"?
+12:17  * sulix falls over in a heap of insanity and shame.
+17:20 -!- mode/#ipdf [+o matches] by OperServ
+17:20 -!- matches changed the topic of #ipdf to: IPDF: A Document Precision Playground
+17:20 <@matches> This is good reading
+17:21 <@matches> I just read "At its core, IPDF breaks documents" and choked on my drink
+17:22  * sulix thinks we might have a new slogan.
+17:23 <@matches> I think it's important that you don't specify what the initials actually stand for
+17:23 <@matches> People will think it's a fancy PDF viewer
+17:23 <@matches> Except it's really a broken SVG viewer
+17:25 < sulix> I don't intend to give any more explanation than IPDF™.
+17:25 < sulix> Or possible IPDFⓇ
+17:25 <@matches> I am jealous of your compose key
+17:26 < sulix> Mwäháhà!
+17:33 <@matches> Ah yeah, precision vs zoom doesn't work to well for doubles for some reason
+18:24 <@matches> Look at ParanoidNumber go
+18:24 <@matches> Look at it go!
+18:24 <@matches> Well you can't because you're not here
+18:24 <@matches> I should do a live stream
+18:24 <@matches> It is so exciting
+18:24 <@matches> It's been going 5 minutes but it hasn't failed any tests since I commented out the comparison against doubles
+18:25 <@matches> Yes
+18:25 <@matches> Eat all the memory
+18:25 <@matches> Soon you will grow strong
+18:27 <@matches> Actually I probably *want* it to start failing tests
+18:28 <@matches> Because if it gives the same result as a double it's not any better than a double...
+18:28 <@matches> At the very least it is mathematically interesting
+18:29 <@matches> I'm not sure Mathematically interesting and "Chemical Engineering Conference" go together
+18:29 <@matches> Also I don't have enough Maths training to say anything about it other than it is interesting
+18:29 <@matches> It is a ring of complete hidden sets of fields
+18:29 <@matches> Yeah
+18:29  * matches uses maths
+18:30 < sulix> Technically, I don't think that things which use floats can ever be rings or fields due to the whole rounding error thing.
+18:34 <@matches> Well
+18:34 <@matches> It's a tree
+18:34 <@matches> I can hold on to that
+18:34 <@matches> I understand trees
+18:35 <@matches> They have trunks and bark and leaves
+18:35 <@matches> Hmm, I should add a Bark sub class
+18:35 <@matches> I wonder if I can bring myself to implement the same test algorithm in Mathematica and compare the results
+18:36 <@matches> I think using Mathematica in research requires you to sell your soul though
+18:41 <@matches> Also Frames thinks that enabling optimisation will magically make PN less terrible
+18:41 <@matches> I'm somewhat skeptical
+18:41 <@matches> But here goes
+18:42 <@matches> (I am anticipating it will make it much faster, in that it will segfault after 2 operations)
+18:45 <@matches> Well it didn't segfault, but apparently "219123 != 219123"
+18:48 <@matches> Actually
+18:48 <@matches> It seems a lot faster
+18:48 <@matches> Hooray Frames
+18:48 <@matches> Thesis done
+18:49 < sulix> Does it speed up the GMP and/or Arbint rationals much?
+18:49 <@matches> Haven't tried yet
+18:49 <@matches> I need to adapt Paranoidtester into a general tester
+18:49 <@matches> Or was that realops
+18:49 <@matches> I forget
+18:49 <@matches> I have a lot of testers that I suspect do basically the same thing
+18:57 <@matches> Compiling with -Ofast does lead to
+18:57 <@matches> WARNING: main (main.cpp:29) - __STDC_IEC_559__ not defined. IEEE 754 floating point not fully supported.
+18:57 <@matches> (I am the best programmer I put in all the warning messages!)
+18:58 <@matches> And ipdf segfaults
+18:58 <@matches> But not the tester
+18:58 <@matches> In stbtt_FindGlyphIndex
+18:59 <@matches> Are we going to need to submit another pull request...
+19:17 <@matches> Ah
+19:17 <@matches> Adding all those "SanityCheck" calls may have slowed things down a tad
+19:17 <@matches> IPDF::ParanoidNumber::SanityCheck (this=0xe80a640, visited=std::set with 9775 elements = {...})
+19:23 <@matches> Sanity-Check-this - out
+19:24 <@matches> I think I need more sleep
+19:53 < Pommers> goto bed matches
