[04:16:31] ski hm, does "Isekai" mean something in particular ?

[04:17:44] ski oh, ty

[04:18:06] ski i was thinking i might've seen the word somewhere else

[04:19:03] ski hm .. so can you follow multiple lifetimes of an individual, or something, in them ?

[04:20:05] ski .. if so, would remind me of Katharine Kerr's "Deverry" (high celtic) fantasy series

[04:20:22] ski mhm

[04:21:41] ski hm, did you try the clove suggestion, btw ?

[04:24:57] ski (those are examples of AI approaches)

[04:26:27] ski is that the image generation thing ?

[04:27:19] ski it's based on gradient ascent, yes ?

[04:28:22] ski i don't

[04:29:37] ski i tend to be more interested in the symbolic side of AI research, than the numeric side

[04:32:06] ski i wonder what it would take to have an AI system critically take apart its own generated produce

[04:32:50] ski or have different subsystems act both adversarial and cooperative with each other

[04:33:43] ski shooting down bad generated suggestions, testing things along multiple channels, multiple modes of analyzing

[14:44:22] ski sometimes i have to pretend to not intend to cross the road, to get a car to pass by, so i can cross

[14:46:49] ski re lactic acid ?

[14:47:51] ski mm, interesting

[14:48:34] ski bpm ?

[14:53:17] ski can't really run for long (injured knee, years ago). biking is not problem. i normally don't think of it

[14:54:12] ski we're going to get ersatz Ahsoka, now ?

[14:54:33] ski well, carry on, then

[14:56:35] ski latter sounds more cute name

[14:56:55] ski (former sounds more like "asshole", i guess)

[14:57:51] ski that's the bot with "dark joke", &c. ?

[14:59:34] ski could keep a timestamp of last time it was sent, in-process

[15:00:07] ski hum, i don't think so

[15:00:55] ski she's taken, sure

[15:01:40] ski she used to wrestle with boys in school, and would win over many of them. always've had strong muscles

[15:02:56] ski one time her dad (a post office offficial) had his boss, with wife and son, over for dinner. she got to wrestling with the son. after a while, her da told the boss to comme out in the hall and look. she had him pinned to the floor, sitting on his stomach, pressing his arms to the floor. the boss didn't like that

[15:03:50] ski nah

[15:06:09] ski she's always been insisting on wearing skirts, feminine clothing (hair in a bun). though not really makeup. she's artistic, has painted some in oil. also, she did all the home carpentry, putting up shelves, wallpaper, painting furniture. dad was the one cooking the meals (she did desserts, cakes and cookies), he also picked mushrooms, and made jam, and cordial/squash/syrup from berries and fruit

[15:11:01] ski that's nice, what kinda ?

[15:13:36] ski moin

[15:34:21] ski (or "gen [something here]")

[15:34:57] ski didn't seem that old, to me

[15:35:31] ski iirc, there are some trees that are older than a thousand years

[15:36:00] ski (usually small trees, living in areas with little nutrition and chance of growth, and, apparently, therefore slowing down their metabolism or something)

[15:41:51] ski later

[15:42:08] ski wb

[23:39:35] ski they just quit

[23:42:49] ski (nor ever bothered with `/ignore')

[23:43:18] ski well, this DuckHunt doesn't support bef

[23:43:29] ski and heya

[23:44:17] ski i guess the developer (CT ?) thought it was funny, at some point, to make it an alias for bang ?

[23:47:02] ski yea

[23:50:50] ski well, my older brother also helped me get started, a little bit. i recall i made a program that "animated" an image of a propellor aeroplane (iirc switching between "-+-o-+-" and "-x-o-x-"). and writing a program to compute the value of a function at a point (for sketching curve on graph paper). and a ceasar/substition cipher one (which ate most of the available RAM .. 544 bytes)

[23:51:38] ski i got the programmable pocket calculator at age 6.5

[23:53:20] ski (sorry, computer's being sluggish, atm)

[23:54:30] ski he also showed me a whole bunch of fun math, from an early age. factorization, primes, permutations, expressions, equations, complex numbers, functions, congruences / modular arithmetic (including congruence equations), aliquot sequences (perfect numbers, amicable numbers, &c.), a little matrices and vectors, ..

[23:54:57] ski well .. math in general, sure

[23:55:09] ski it's not known whether ther are any odd ones

[23:55:14] ski hs

[23:55:21] ski using what, wofmobile ?

[23:55:57] ski hm .. i suspect there is none, cause we haven't found any, despite looking .. but who knows

[23:57:21] ski there is a function `pi(n)', that computes the number of primes less than `n'. and there's an approximation to this, `Li(n)', involving some integral. these tend to each other, as we go towards infinity. however, it seems like one of them is always less than the other ..

[23:58:31] ski .. but this is in fact not true. for Skewes number, which is something like `e^e^e^87' (or somesuch, i don't recall exactly. it's collosal, anyway, much larger than googolplex), they have switched order, and they switch order infinitely many times after

[23:58:54] ski so, it might just be that the first odd perfect number is just collosally large ..
