[04:12] So unless we happen to get 17+ people by the 29th, we'll just go straight into the tournament [04:12] (skipping qualification) [04:15] only 11 so far? [04:15] And you have typo in Brackets. Not that it matters, since its getting replaced anyway. [04:16] Heh [04:16] There's 14 [04:16] New version coming up in a second [04:18] Heath and Mike disappered from the page, didnt notice it though, i blame medication, alertness-level and lack of caffeine [04:19] some wiseass(Fluff) might mention that how did i write that last sentence anyway [04:19] They aren't on schedule brackets or index yet [04:19] Players pages just got updated [04:26] There ya go [04:31] hmm, i think i noticed a thing in ExactAbs. that might be an improvement [04:32] However the summoning-spell doesnt work this time of day [04:32] How drunk are you, again? [04:33] see LP-hill for clarification [04:34] only a fool would try to summon Roy this time of day [04:56] lol [04:56] What time is it there? [04:56] Morningish? [04:56] 8 in morning [04:56] 6 or 7 at roy's [04:57] What are all the working hills [04:57] koth, sal, koen*, etc? [04:58] check dotinfo? [04:58] Lukasz's littlehill [04:58] Metcalf's tiny infinity [05:01] Where has metcalf been? [05:01] Haven't seen him for many moons [05:02] no idea [05:02] i'd be interested to know too [05:05] * datagram ponders. [05:19] Mizcu, Its metcalf's hill still operational? [05:25] dunno [05:27] wow, my scanner is teh ownage [05:27] 4 87 9 against timescape [05:28] Heh [05:31] removed "intelligence" from attack and now goes 16 44 40 [05:31] : ) baby steps [05:31] So that concept warrior proves that the type of "intelligent" attack i have been thinking is useless [05:33] Heh, it would appear that way [05:50] damnit this is annoying: I make best inventions when tired, but best code when not [05:50] I just had an very very very interesting warrior-idea, but it requires quite interesting code which is not in my current ability [05:51] and i cant go get some sleep 'cause i have to get my daily sleep-rythm correct [05:51] Heh [05:55] bah, focking impossible [06:00] there might yet be hope.. [07:07] I will soon want to rip something apart.. [07:07] im not getting this one to co-operate [07:13] it happens man [07:21] ooh, i got it to work [07:21] work like crap, but it proves the theory [07:26] Cool [07:32] ugh, i hate this feeling [07:32] poop? [07:33] I finally made something interesting and i want to hear people say "ooh!", but i cannot paste it because it might be actually worth something [07:33] Haha, well make it good [07:33] and then have us go >< about not knowing [07:33] And theeen later on release it [07:34] i am a bit doubtful about it becoming high-level [07:52] goddarnit [07:59] how the hell i am going to do a switch if the switching-instruction is not executed periodically or predictably [09:15] Join: fiveop joined #corewars [10:10] grumble grumble [10:18] hi :) [10:20] Mizcu, :P [10:24] I hate this one already [11:03] Nick Change: pak21_ changed nick to pak21 [11:14] Join: Necromanc joined #corewars [11:14] * Necromanc summons Roy!!!! [11:14] Part: Necromanc left #corewars [11:14] Join: Roy joined #corewars [11:14] Hi! [11:15] Now I need to summon mizcu :S [11:17] And I also need sf... and I'm also curious about datagram's final [11:20] ? [11:20] Yesterday..? [11:20] Oh the project [11:20] You where talking about a final right after the last round :) [11:20] You mean what I was working on? [11:20] yup [11:21] [16:31] I am passing the fuck out now [11:21] [16:32] Finals in a few hours [11:21] Oh [11:21] Finals as in tests [11:21] Ah ok, that kind of finals :) [11:21] Yes [11:21] But this was my project thing [11:21] http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f205/tolerance0/entry.png [11:21] Yes, I saw that in the logs [11:22] Mmk [11:22] Are you going to cut those, or just draw them [11:22] Someone else will cut them [11:23] and then you'll go rob a bank? [11:23] Nice, but use them wisely :) they don't have a lot of computers in prison :p [11:23] :P [11:26] fiveop, Banks use combination locks, newb : ) [11:26] But.. [11:26] * datagram gestures to the safe lock sitting on the desk [11:27] I believe it used to go on a bank door [11:27] But houses and cars don't..! [11:28] And a lockpicker can break in a house steal something small and never get noticed... [11:28] The door that this lock goes on is 2 1/2 inches thick [11:28] So yeah [11:28] Roy, Too bad I'm not a thief [11:28] Thats what they all say... [11:30] Hmm [11:30] Should I sleep now or... [11:30] I gotta go buy a suit in the afternoon, 0430 now [11:31] Buying a suit doesn't need you to be sharp nor alert.. [11:31] Roy, Awake and at the mall does, though [11:31] I normally sleep during the day [11:31] But now I don't have that job...so I can have any schedule I want until I find a new job and adapt to that schedule [11:33] Which hopefully will be soon... and else you have the tools to start a new career ;-) [11:34] Interview on tuesday [11:34] for what kind of job? [11:35] uberhacker [11:36] lol...? [11:38] :) [11:38] Topic Change: datagram sets topic: [ http://datagram.redcode.nl ] Spring Tournament! Register by the 29th! -datagram [11:38] Sounds like a nice job, does it involve parasitic computing too? :P [11:39] I hope so ! : D [11:40] Or do you need to develop a cloaking device? (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/5016068.stm) [11:51] Did you ever see the japanese cloaking suit? [11:57] <- Unsummons himself, back later [12:06] Yeah I did, that one is pretty cool too [12:06] I'm going to bed [12:06] btw. we survived 25 may! [12:06] I pwned this crappy lockup and down [12:06] Sleep well, ciao [12:25] Join: Fluffy joined #corewars [12:25] :) [12:35] hi [12:36] Any news? [12:38] I'm not dead [12:38] Nice to hear :) [12:42] The website is still online though, they just changed the time-frame a little [12:43] ah, when is now the asteroid to hit? [12:44] which asteroid? [12:45] No asteroid at all. It is all about some idiot, who predictes yet another apocalypse [12:58] No asteroid.. he also blames UFO's [12:59] Where is the difference? [13:01] Now we need another cunning plan to destroy the earth :( [13:01] Even if he would blame bananas nothing would change ;-) [13:08] 1. Give me all your money [13:08] 2. ??? [13:08] 3. Destroyed earth. [13:09] Maybe I should extend that [13:09] No, not extend, use it :) [13:09] ok [13:10] If I succeed I'll be the first to commit geocide ;-) [13:10] Yesterday I was reading about the chruch of scientology...they have a cool plan too [13:10] Scientology: [13:10] 1. Give us money [13:10] 2. You are member [13:10] 3. Give us more money [13:10] 4. You are a better member [13:14] I like my plan [13:20] Geocite, sounds pretty cool [13:21] But google gives some nasty searchresults :-O [13:21] "Tasty-Teens Forums -> Teen Page On Geocite" [13:21] it is "geocide" [13:22] ups [13:24] genocide is a bit easier to do though.. [13:33] what sort of lifeform do you want to genocide? [13:38] L [13:38] ? [13:38] Nethack reference, which is what I assume fiveop was getting at as well. [13:38] Musquitos (?) [13:39] hmm ... I've forgotten so much about nethack :( [13:39] * pak21 has #nethack open over there, which is why I was initially confused... [13:40] Haven't seen you here for a long time pak, how come? [13:43] Mostly a combination of work and buying a house [13:45] Cool, congrats on the house :) [13:45] I'm looking for a place too currently [13:46] Haven't actually bought it yet, but had the offer accepted on Tuesday. Still lots of paperwork to do... [13:47] Back in a bit -- got to prod another machine for a bit. [13:52] A friend of mine sold his house, the other party signed the contract, but now they want to get out of it all.. [13:52] contract's contract [13:52] But the law says (here) that they can get out of the contract only if they pay 8 to 10%...thats a LOT of money, but they are probably going to do that [13:52] I want to build a house someday! :P [13:57] Well, I got a job now, and after this month my trail period ends, so then I could get a morgage [13:57] I have to find a job with enough salary [13:57] morgage? [13:57] mortgage [13:57] Heh, missing a 't' [13:58] Where do you work at? [13:58] Ordina, its a dutch IT company that 'lends' people to other companies [13:59] so you're lend to other companies? [13:59] Not yet, I started a month ago, first they are going to let me get a couple of Java certificates [13:59] But after that I do projects for different companies [14:00] MSG: Quit: fluffy.i < 1, # 42 [14:00] java :/ [14:00] Sorry :-( [14:00] But the biggest amount of company software currently is J2EE [14:00] are you looking for a new job? :P [14:00] Noo, they pay me good money, and gave me a car and laptop, and I get a LOT of time to learn/get certificates [14:01] hm [14:01] k ;) [14:01] And Java isn't so bad once you get used to it [14:02] And I'm also in the lucky position to have wealthy parents who want to lend me money for a house [14:03] Then they'll have a good investment, and I'll have a very low interest [14:04] Plus some tax advantage [14:07] low interest? [14:07] do you want to buy one, or build one? [14:10] Buy one, its almost impossible to build one here, then you'll need like half a million or something! [14:17] k [14:17] Actually I have no idea how much it will cost, but nobody does it.. [14:17] So in some years Roy already reached House'n'Family-status :P [14:17] -ed+s [14:17] +e? [14:17] Not yet, but maybe soon :) [14:17] :P [14:18] Then all I need to do is get married and be unhappy the rest of my working life :P [14:19] ... [14:19] I don't want to be unhappy [14:19] Then stay young! [14:22] don't think that's a necessity [15:25] Join: bvowk joined #corewars [15:39] * bvowk puts roy on the rack and proceeds to stretch his joints out. [15:39] wake up! [15:42] * Roy is alive [15:42] woot! [15:42] what? :) [15:42] not only was torture fun, it was also effective! this might be a bad precident! [15:42] :) [15:42] * Roy didn't notice it [15:43] hrm.. roy is a tough guy to break. [15:43] whats up roy? [15:43] hacking anything interesting? [15:44] My grandfather is Stretch Armstrong [15:44] Not really hacking anything, was reading a bit on parasitic computing, pretty funny stuff [15:44] heh [15:44] not terrifically effective however [15:47] Well, like they used it in the Nature article is nice [15:47] And I also like the JavaScript-parasite computing idea (with AJAX uploading/downloading instructions) [15:48] That can be used for a lot more then just checksum logic [15:48] yeah.. thats kinda cute actually.. [15:48] I've been tempted to write a javascript corewars evolver.. [15:48] Hehe, the more people on the website, the more computing power [15:49] but then I did the math on how fast a javascript mars would be and I quickly realized it would be a crime against god and computing. [15:49] I'd need the entire computing population of the US to show up at my site and stick around :) [15:50] yeah, mininova had a nice article on it [15:51] I'll just stick to my 1kish cpu count :) [15:53] hm [15:53] Roy: url [15:54] whats up fiveop? [15:54] http://blog.mininova.org/articles/2005/11/17/mininova-the-javascript-cluster [15:54] you working on anything worthwhile? [15:57] ok.. anything interesting? :) [15:58] guess thats a no :) [15:59] so, fiveop.. how's breathing going then? :) [15:59] hrm, I think he's still doing that [15:59] I myself have been having a good morning with breathing.. the flowering trees are almost done.. [16:01] hrm. [16:01] Haven't seen any trees this day :/ [16:03] no? [16:03] my walk to work is tree lined.. [16:03] sadly.. most of them are flowering trees [16:03] which I am allergic to [16:03] Actually, I've only left this room for two times [16:03] (since I got up) [16:03] which wouldn't be so bad if they didn't smell as ghastly as they make my nose feel. [16:03] how long ago was that? [16:04] About uhm 8 hours [16:06] bvowk: I'm only look at my irc window every now an then sry :P [16:07] * bvowk sends roy outside before he forgets the way [16:08] I'll see enough wet outdoors tomorrow and sunday, the beachvolleybalseason is starting again :( [16:08] I see [16:08] why is it beachvolleyballseason and not just beach volleyball season? [16:10] err no idea, because my english sucks :P [16:11] alright. [16:11] But its raining non-stop this whole week or something [16:11] I was just wondering if it was something like thankyouverymuchsirhaveaniceday you hear at fast food places [16:12] well, beachvolleyball might be true, because its one name (?) [16:13] english floks doesn't have the habit of glueing words together like germans [16:16] well, we make them acronyms when we do that..

[16:25] he's upset because I called him on his lacking space bar use I think [16:26] hehehehee [16:27] you won't participate on the upcoming tournament? [16:28] would be nice if a pure evolver freak participate [16:28] I guess it wouldn't be to hard to set an evolver to the appropriate round rules [16:29] unless it isn't too complicated [16:30] what do you think, bvowk? [16:30] whens the deadline? [16:35] deadline for registration is 29th [16:35] deadline for first round entry is June 4 [16:35] but rules will be announce on Monday [16:37] ups deadline for registration is 28th [16:45] bvowk: still there?

[23:16] I just submitted another warrior to the begginer hill. [23:16] But it didn't quite as well as I had hoped. :( [23:17] s/didn't/didn't do/ [23:18] i guess it isnt using the same style as the leapfrog i know [23:18] Oh, I didn't realize the name had been taken. [23:18] But the first leapfrog was completely forgotten anyway until Fizmo found it when analyzing scores [23:18] I should probably do better research before choosing a name. [23:18] Dont sweat about it [23:19] Mine basically trows a bomb ahead of itself, then copies itself ahead 20 times it's leangth, then splits to it's copy. [23:21] and after splitting? [23:21] just jump to first instruction? [23:21] [after possible reset of pointers] [23:21] yes. [23:22] Just goes back to itself. Hmm. now I see my problem. [23:22] you should modify the position where second copy goes [23:22] It will start copying over its previous copy and then split to that again. [23:22] Yeah. [23:22] Noticed it yourself, very good [23:23] Thanks, I should have noticed that before. It's funny how clear something becomes when someone else starts asking questions about it. [23:25] do you throw just a single bomb? [23:26] Yeah. [23:26] Ahead 2 lenghts of the wrrior. [23:26] put the bomb-throwing instruction inside the copying loop [23:26] To throw one with each copied instructions? [23:27] s/s?/?/ [23:27] Err. along with I should say. [23:27] its again an effectivity thing [23:27] ok. [23:28] Since a single bomb is on good enough gain for increase of one instruction [23:28] on -> not [23:28] ah. [23:28] but if you put it inside the loop, you get X bombs for one instruction [23:29] your copying loop will slow down a bit, but that is not a problem since you are also more aggressive [23:30] Yeah. I see. [23:35] The paper is copying itself forward 20 times its size, which is.. ehh.. (how much can i trust on your ability to miniaturize?) ~140-200-260. That distance could be increased for better results. And also the bombing-distance. [23:42] ok.
