<wpwrak> now .. what wuold be a good patch to "beautify" a little ? Digital Flame ?
<wpwrak> it looks rather boring. but it has lots of ifs ...
<wpwrak> of course, all the ifs operate on what's essentially a boolean variable. kinda stupid.

<n0carri3r> hey all
<n0carri3r> how's USBMIDI coming along? :)

<wpwrak> for n0carrier in absentia, "it works" ;-)
<wpwrak> we just have that horrible shortage of USB ports :)
<lars_> so, next task, add support for hubs
<wpwrak> phew :)
<wpwrak> the signaling side wouldn't be so bad. but hubs also affect the overall timing. nasty.
<wpwrak> but before anything like that, i still have a bit of general usb cleanup lined up. find and kill the timeouts, implement report descriptor parsing, then get my mouse farm to work.

sb0 [sb0!~sb@136.125.103.84.rev.sfr.net] has joined #milkymist
<wpwrak> sb0: heya ! big question because i'm too lazy to read the source: why do we need I2F ? do numbers in the PFPU have dynamic typing, alternating between int and float ?
<sb0> all registers are 32-bits, and it doesn't matter whether they hold a int or float
<wpwrak> so I2F is a no-op ?
<sb0> i.e. the hardware doesn't care, it just executes the operation using the bit vector you give it
<sb0> but ofc if you run a float operation with int operands (or the other way around) you get garbage
<sb0> no
<sb0> it converts a 32 bit int into a 32 bit float with the same value
<wpwrak> ah, so we do have dynamic typing. without implicit conversion. hmm.
<sb0> the compiler has to take care of these things
<wpwrak> hmm :)
<sb0> but most is float, except in some cases like trigo table offsets
<sb0> the current point coordinates also are int, and need explicit conversion to float
<wpwrak> tricky. basic arithmetic (+, -, etc.) is always float or does it adapt ?
<sb0> always float
<sb0> told you, everything is float, except some corner cases
<wpwrak> okay
<wpwrak> so f2i and i2f are basically internal use only
<sb0> yes, only internal use
<sb0> all the visible patch language uses float
<wpwrak> maybe i should add a flag that hides those things
<wpwrak> okay, thanks ! things make a little more sense now :)
<wpwrak> now ... back to the party preparations ...
<sb0> have fun! :) and happy new year all!

<Fallenou> happy new year #milkymist
<lars_> still some time left
<lars_> at least here
<kristianpaul> 11:30 here
<kristianpaul> but best wishes to you Fallenou :)
<kristianpaul> 11:30 AM*
<Fallenou> thanks :)
<Fallenou> here (Paris) it's 17h34
<kristianpaul> btw as it uses a fpga this project worth to mention here http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/blog/28c3-hardware
<Fallenou> ohoh osmocom :)
<Fallenou> I just came back from Berlin

<n0carri3r> morning all
<n0carri3r> i guess you euros will be partying soon enough :)
<Fallenou> sure !
* Fallenou is leaving soon
<n0carri3r> haha great
<n0carri3r> its early here, so i'm drinking coffee and trying to wake up
<n0carri3r> really warm in NYC! 55 degrees, or about 12 C
<Fallenou> oh nice
<Fallenou> was not too cold in Berlin this year
<Fallenou> no snow :(
<Fallenou> or almost none
<Fallenou> compared to last year ahah
<lars_> yes, the winter has been quite mild so far. almost no days with temperatures below 0 C
<Thihi> Same here.
<Thihi> 7 C on 26th of december.
<n0carri3r> so, what are you guys working on?
<n0carri3r> i'm not a M1 developer, just a customer :)
<n0carri3r> but i'm working on finalizing and documenting a bunch of my patches now
<n0carri3r> to upload with video samples to the web
* Fallenou just finished his engineering school and just entered real world
* kristianpaul 32°C
<Fallenou> in my spare time I'm doing some verilog experiments in order to one day make a small softcre
<Fallenou> softcore*
<kristianpaul> I working on spare time in having a gps receiver inside the milkymist fpga
<kristianpaul> and the learning all the needed in the process ;)
* lars_ is in a similar position as Fallenou
<Fallenou> well I have to say I am almost at state 0, it's a start :)
<Fallenou> I'm essentially in the learning state
<wpwrak> hmm, 25 C here. quite bearable.
<kristianpaul> 25C, !lovelly :)
* kristianpaul knows that need to finish officially his engineering school this new year
<n0carri3r> wow, some pretty intense sounding stuff :)
<n0carri3r> i'm working with the existing software, but my hardware knowledge of the M1 is limited
<wpwrak> ah nu, that was 2 h ago. now it's 27 C
<wpwrak> time for a siesta :)
<n0carri3r> ok guys have fun tonight
<n0carri3r> cya
