browniesany of you know of a website/software where i could drill/practice mental math?02:57
Coornailyou could probably practice using spaced repetation02:58
Coornailcreate flashcards02:58
Coornailyou can do that automatically02:58
Coornailand use mnemosyne to practice02:58
Coornailor something else02:58
foucistreal men recognize that SRS/flashcards just ain't a complete solution..  ARRRR03:00
foucistbrownies: can't the app that you've been working on help you drill that?03:01
foucistscratch your own itch, eat your own poop, etc..  all the famous startup sayings!03:01
browniesfoucist: yeah, we kinda iterated to the point where we're now building a general solution to teach all the things to all the people03:03
-!- chris_99 [~chris_99@unaffiliated/chris-99/x-3062929] has joined ##hplusroadmap03:03
Coornailthat will surely work03:03
browniesCoornail: our strategy is foolproof! unfortunately, there's a lot of fools.03:05
foucistbrownies: that's my startup03:07
foucistyou trying to compete with me?!03:07
brownieswhat do you mean "trying to" ?03:07
browniesfoucist: heh, what are you up to these days man03:08
foucistactually right now i'm dealing with my pinterest killer..  will do that in a week and then back to the learning app .. so you betta watch out!03:08
foucistheh03:09
Coornail=)03:09
browniesCoornail: anyway, i just want to do mental math drills for time... don't even need spaced repetition nonsense, i should just be able to pick the difficulty level03:11
brownieshell, i could build this... *right now*03:11
* brownies fires up the editor03:11
Coornailwhat kind of examples you want to solve?03:12
Coornailaddition, multiplication?03:12
browniessquares, maybe03:13
browniessimple algebra, might as well... completing the square, why not03:13
browniesoooh, actually, doing numerical integration would be a nice catch-all03:13
brownies....this is escalating quickly.03:13
browniesCoornail: i'd settle for just something that simple, if it exists03:14
Coornailwell you could just generate tons of random exercises and plug it into mnemosyne03:14
Coornailthat is why I mentioned spaced repetation03:15
Coornailnot like you'd have to repeat the tasks, but the software is perfect for something like that03:15
sylph_makoI wrote a command line thing for doing simple ops in hex.03:16
sylph_makoI'm yet to do a simple op in hex.03:16
browniesCoornail: yea but why involve mnemosyne? seems like a sledgehammer for such a simple problem03:17
Coornailmaybe it could be a gateway-flashcard, and you'd start using it more =D03:18
CoornailI don't know, I'm just trying to solve the problem with the least effort03:18
CoornailI'm lazy03:18
browniesyeah, but i don't have mnemosyne, and somehow i'm convinced that it'd be easier for me to code the whole thing than to download and learn mnemosyne =P03:19
foucistmnemosyne/anki are fairly straightforward, but you'd still need to generate flashcards03:20
foucisti find there's a bunch of disadvantages with the current flashcard/srs systems03:20
foucisti will be rectifying those problems in my Amazing New Learning Web App That Everyone Will Love03:21
browniesis there a flashcard generation API/03:23
browniesbut then what are the metrics03:23
browniesoh hell, i'll just build it myself03:23
browniesand, oh yeah, wasn't Anki > Mnemosyne anywy?03:24
foucistit's a mite fresher.. but quite a few ppl i know use mnemosyne anyways03:26
foucistanki has various python plugins and such03:26
brownieshm, interesting03:28
brownieswhy isn't there a cloud version of such things?03:28
foucistanki does have an online component03:32
foucistinterface is more baic but works03:32
Coornailthere are many formats of flashcards03:37
Coornailmost of them are pretty straightforward03:37
Coornailreadable03:37
brownieshmm04:06

foucistcoding a porn site @ a co-working space06:06
foucist(it's the pinterest killer!)06:06
foucistheh06:06
foucistof course there'll be two versions.. adult and non-adult.. two birds, 1 singularity06:07

ThomasEgicoding a porn site for non-adults? how's that going to work out?06:07
foucistnice interpretatio..  no, a non-adult site for non-adults06:07
foucistand a porn site for porn-adults06:07
* ThomasEgi is cornfused nao06:08
foucistThomasEgi: sorry, i guess you dont' have backlog!06:08
foucistThomasEgi: nah i'm just coding a "pinterest killer" but gonna make two versions of it, one for porn , and one for non-adult material06:08
foucistbut i was using porn material while coding it @ the coworking space.. i didn't think people could see my screen06:09
foucistthen later i realized that some were looking!06:09
ThomasEgihm. well i guess having a job where you are allowed to look at porn half of the time aint half as bad^06:11

foucistbeen that way since i first started typing 18 years ago06:19
@kanzureone more?06:19
foucistnah :P06:19
foucistmy peak is 111 wpm06:20
foucisti think i jumped 10-20 wpm since we last raced06:20
foucistfor no reason at all06:20
@kanzurei think it is time that the german pirate party evolves into the german robot pirate party06:20
foucistno practice or anything06:20
foucisti just realized that 110 isn't that hard06:21
@kanzurewhere have you been for the past few months?06:21
foucisthiding from this chan of course ;)06:21
@kanzurealright06:21
foucistnot a lot new, still in bangkok, just working on marketing and coding etc06:21

delinquentmeanyone in here ever heard ( within the context of Ruby )07:18
delinquentmeas a gem being "installed"07:18
delinquentmelike in this statement it makes sense ... but I made a (small ) edit to the bioruby lib and im not entirely sure about the feedback I was given07:19
@kanzureit's installed when it's in your gem folder07:19
@kanzurecheck "gem --environment"07:19
delinquentmehttps://github.com/bioruby/bioruby/pull/59#issuecomment-652675507:22
delinquentmethe patch ( assuming my edit )07:23
delinquentmeis completely unaware of the file locations after installation07:23
delinquentmehowever before my patch07:24
delinquentmethe tests wouldn't even complete07:24
@kanzure"autoload :KEGGDB,    '../lib/bio/db'" is not okay07:24
delinquentmewhat about it?07:26
delinquentmetest/runner.rb07:27
delinquentmeseems to be what runs the autotesting07:27
-!- joshcryer [g@unaffiliated/joshcryer] has quit []07:27
delinquentmeand with jruby-1.6.7.2-d1907:27
@kanzurethe "../" makes it relative07:27
@kanzurehe's saying don't do that.07:27
delinquentmeis he?07:29
delinquentmeI mean he says its "unaware " after installation07:29
delinquentmebut it seems unaware pre my patch07:29
delinquentmeas it doesnt run07:29
delinquentmeso like we've got 2 cases here07:30
@kanzurei don't know why you don't understand me.07:30
@kanzuredon't write "..". use the gem paths.07:30
delinquentme1) no tests run ... as they fail with undefined variables07:30
delinquentmewell there is not gem path for the keggdb07:30
delinquentmeso create a pathenv?07:30
delinquentmeenvpath or whatever07:30
@kanzureno. if you install keggdb then it has a path.07:31
delinquentmeyeah however the pre existing path he gave didnt work07:31
@kanzurethen fix it.07:31
delinquentmewhich was 'bio/db'07:31
delinquentmei thought i did07:31
@kanzureyou didn't07:31
delinquentme....07:31
@kanzuredamn dude. just use what everyone else does.07:32
@kanzureor if that fails then:07:32
delinquentmekanzure,07:32
@kanzurerequire File.dirname(__FILE__) + "whatever/the/fuck/you/need"07:32
@kanzurethis isn't rocket science :(07:32
@kanzure(i should note that my require line is not normal and you shouldn't use it as a first solution)07:33
delinquentmesomethings failing here07:34
delinquentmethe fail happens when running the autotest directly07:34
delinquentme"ruby test/runner.rb"07:34
delinquentmebreaks because that pre existing path 'bio/db'  is wonky07:34
delinquentmeso you're saying give it something more absolute?07:35
delinquentmeALSO im wildly confused as to how this works for him07:35
delinquentmebecause 'bio/db'  has no call to its relative path07:36
delinquentmeit needs a . to be functional at all .. no?07:36
@kanzureis bio/db a gem or not07:37
delinquentmenah07:37
delinquentmejust a file07:37
@kanzuremaybe you should change that07:37
delinquentmewaiiiit07:37
delinquentmebio is a gem07:38
delinquentmeis bio/db a way to sub ref a gem ?07:38
@kanzuresometimes.07:38

@kanzurejrayhawk: i'd like to copy the nanoengineer chroot a few times, e.g. so i can have one 'stable' chroot and one for 'the next version'09:40
@kanzureiirc, you had to do some sysadmin stuff to make my chroots work on my vserver?09:41
@kanzureif so, could you setup another one for me? basically i need one that works, and then one where i upgrade ubuntu and break everything09:41

jrayhawkThe only thing I can think of is makedev failing, but, in principle, the chrooted userspace should function fine on what your vserver is restricted to.12:21
jrayhawkSo, yeah, you should be able to copy/extract it on gnusha and just ignore the device node creation errors.12:22
jrayhawkkanzure: oh i guess i should make your client beep by addressing you12:22
jrayhawkIf it's a tar file, you probably want to extract it as root with --numeric-owner, btw12:24

@kanzurehttp://headmagnet.com/ ("predict when you will forget")14:17
browniesyeah, flashcards aren't really the answer here.14:18
browniesi want something like typeracer but for math.14:18
browniesit's not the dichotomy here that i'm concerned with... i'm not going to "forget" how to add14:18
browniesit's more about increasing performance along a continuous spectrum14:19
@kanzurehttp://shortcutfoo.com/ for math might be ok for speed math training? "can you add two numbers within 1.5 seconds?"14:19
@kanzurei guess it would be nice to be able to do partial differential equations in the less than 10 seconds14:20
@kanzure"draw a math symbol and get its latex" http://detexify.kirelabs.org/classify.html14:22
@kanzurewould be nice if it cross-referenced the symbols to wikipedia articles:x14:23

@kanzurethere was a unicode/utf8 dictionary recently.. i don't recall if it had drawing input or not14:24

strangewarpErgh20:45
strangewarpBring up radical scarcity around internet intellectuals who have stewed in zero-sum anti-piracy rhetoric for a decade -> they try to stamp you the fuck out20:46
strangewarper20:46
strangewarp.. radical abundance*20:46
strangewarpI keep making that typo too. Annoying20:47
browniesjrayhawk: heh, i love that story... but sadly i don't have any canonical logs or exps memorized20:49
strangewarp"First of all, it's cute that you keep trying to justify your silly ideals, because it's never going to happen. Grow up, accept it, get a job. Second of all, video game and computer technology companies only make their mega-projects because the scarce market sustains them. If all their employees didn't have to work to live, they would stop working, and human art and science would be over."20:52
browniesfoucist: i tried playing the shark game for 2digit + 2digit, but only 2 digits can fit on a shark, so it's completely fucking broken =/20:52
strangewarpParaphrasing here; the original guy used less elegant and angrier language.20:52
@kanzurestrangewarp: why are you debating with him?20:56
Mokbortolan_it's not a debate20:56
Mokbortolan_it's just two people arguing at each other20:56
@kanzurewell okay, then why are you talkingw ith him20:56
@kanzure*with20:56
Mokbortolan_happens all the time20:56
@kanzurepeople? yeah.20:56
strangewarpkanzure: He's an op in one of the channels where I have long-term friends and complain about things more often20:56
strangewarp(not on this network)20:57
Mokbortolan_you have to make him identify with you before you can even hope to change his mind20:57
Mokbortolan_and then suggest the change in terms he also identifies with, and can appreciate20:57
@kanzurethe net utility of convincing some angry internet guy about something is surprisingly close to zero20:58
strangewarpkanzure yeah, I wasn't trying to convince him of anything, I was just idly commenting about the zero-sum non-futurist responses to the latest filesharing kerfuffle and he decided to launch into me21:00
sylph_makoHeh. In my metrics, the net utility of anything is close to zero. Close to zero is all anything ever gets, but it's enough.21:00
Mokbortolan_well, there are inherent "arguments" that occur during conversation21:01
Mokbortolan_sort of like, "I think X is objectively true."21:01
Mokbortolan_"Well, I think X is objectively false, and Y is objectively true."21:01
Mokbortolan_and depending on how skilled each member is in the art of polite conversation, it can result in the transfer of perspective information, or a shouting match/fistfight21:02
strangewarpI think just that guy in particular is good at pressing my buttons; he's basically a psychopath who will not change his opinions because they're HIS, dangnabbit21:02
Mokbortolan_that's most people21:03
Mokbortolan_very frustrating21:03
strangewarpyeah21:03
Mokbortolan_especially because presenting information that contradicts their view is likely to strengthen their view21:03
strangewarpyeah21:03
strangewarpHe told me he saved the conversation, so he could paste it into the channel once every day in 2035 to show me how wrong I am21:04
strangewarppsychopath21:04
Mokbortolan_sounds like you couldn't get him to identify with you21:04
@kanzureuh who cares about the year 2035?21:04
strangewarpnobody really21:05
strangewarpI think there was a thread on his video-game-industry-insider forum about Kurzweil at some point, maybe, which might be where he got the date from21:06
strangewarpAlso, I think to a Clever Internet Conservative, my opinions about abundance and welfare come off as completely self-serving, since I don't have a job. Which I'm assuming is a very clever thing to point out..21:16
