TIME FOR A PURR-OFF
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
As of the first round, Coraline v purr, we have Coraline at 1, thanks to an unexpected coronal-mass ejection! (We always knew she had hidden depths!);
<purr>
ELLIOTTCABLE: ... knew *he* had
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
-_-
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
not you, purr.
<Coraline>
Misgendered by a bot
<Coraline>
:(
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
PURR, APOLOGIZE
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
my tummy hurts from calzone. i regret calzone.
<Coraline>
I want a calzone so bad
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I need to like, *practice* reading hex/binary
<Coraline>
You don't deserve the calzone you got
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
i.e. translating in my head quickly
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
like, what're bits 02-11 of 0x7ff00038c?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I keep having to do it manually and jesus christ it's frustrating
<Coraline>
I used to practice counting in binary on my fingers
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
Coraline: can you *eat* calzone? I will straight-up send you one RIGHT NOW
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
can I just write the entire thing in Rust? plz?
<alva>
yes
<alva>
i give u my permission
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
alva: >:
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
i wish u were my teacher
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
actually nah tbh this teacher is *awesome*
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
but I want to chat with him about plt and maybe have steamy happy intercourse with him, not have to fucking turn in C ‘systems programming’ assignments
<alva>
oh it's homework?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
like ltrly can i plz *not* write a fucking cache simulator right now, this is like, I'M 27 THIS IS SO EMASCULATING
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
or idk age is a bad indicator. but w/e anyway.
<alva>
i went to university at 32 or something
<alva>
dropped out after a year
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
W…woah. I thought you were, I dunno, 25?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
definitely at least, younger than me
<alva>
i'm 35 soon
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
yeah. I'm returning at 27, and it's, terrible.
<alva>
i learned so much more on the job so i went back to spotify
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I'm dropping CS like it's hot.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I'm only doing undergrad to get to the graduate-level knowledge I need; I'm only in school at all because there are some topics I just struggle with, without tutelage.
<alva>
drop it like it's hoth *crawls into a tauntaun*
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
alva: wat.
<purr>
beep.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
love it, love it, keeping forever
<alva>
u know... like in star wars, on the ice planet hoth
<Coraline>
What kind of heathen doesn't get a SW joke
<alva>
and they slice open a tauntaun and stuff luke inside
<alva>
because it's not hot on hoth but it's hot in a tauntaun

Coraline: bot-feature
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
if you respond to something with ‘w[au]t\.?’ (and several variations thereupon, but those are less-frequently used), the bot will store the presumably-strange-or-funny line and reintroduce it as a non-sequitur years down the road.

Neat
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
where AliceBot seems to be designed as pull/command-invoked, purr is based on a ton of really, really sketchy and undocumented NLP and ‘push’ features
<Coraline>
Ha okay
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
not to mention that like, a dozen people have had access to him for like a freaking decade, so I don't think anybody really knows everything he does.
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
the gender thing was me, though. hence apologizing. gonna fix. >,>
<Coraline>
Okie thanks
<Coraline>
That was a little
<Coraline>
jarring
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I know holy shit I was so, so shocked
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
not sure how gonna fix. might have to pull in a full natural-language processing toolkit, but,
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
might just rip entirely out (although purr's gender is an old, old joke with a rich history, idk)
<Coraline>
Alice has pronoun support
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
Yah, I've wanted that for a loooong time; but I haven't been able to come up with a good way to do it
<Coraline>
Hmm watch one more show or go to sleep
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
again: full / true NLP is really necessary to do it well /=
<alva>
Did a FB bot recently for Spotify, it was fun, other than FB
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
One of the goals would be impartial auto-muting of people repeatedly misgendering; and that's hard to do Well™
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
I feel like almost anything involving FB will end up being described as “it was fun, other than FB”
<alva>
at least they don't suspend my account any more
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
they did? why?
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
got Zucked?
<alva>
changed my name and got suspended. created a new account with the right name from the get go, got suspended again (then coworkers went to FB and poked someone to fix it)

he's written in JavaScript and I mean, who isn't terrible at JavaScript¹
<alva>
JS?
<alva>
hahaha
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
(1. me. I'm fucking amazing at JavaScript. fucking amazing.)
<alva>
when the spotify desktop app started to get rewritten in web junk i was the one responsible for it. implemened a bunch of new features and went to new york for some press conference and everything worked and i was astounded
<alva>
then we got some actual js devs
<alva>
and i switched to ios because ew

Do you Swift now?

as far as I know, you're way cooler than *me*?

whitequark derides me now, but up until now, velartrill and I have been vaguely Internet-close
<ELLIOTTCABLE>
idk I think I just pissed her off.

ANYWAY

I hate C, I hate it, ahhh

i love it, it makes no promises it cannot keep, it goes with me to any weird constrained platform, it's great

i also know (or like to think i know) when not to use it, which is more important
