Kilosme wonders how the fly family is fairing15:53
Kilosright sounding word maybe spelling is wrong15:54
Kilosfaring15:54
KilosMaaz  define fairing15:54
MaazKilos: Fairing \Fair"ing\, n. A present; originally, one given or purchased at a fair. --Gay. [1913 Webster]  {Fairing box}, a box receiving savings or small sums of money. --Hannah More. [1913 Webster]15:54
KilosMaaz  define fsring15:55
MaazKilos: I don't know about fsring. Maybe you meant Fring, Faring, Firing or firing?15:55
Kilosai!15:55
KilosMaaz  define faring15:55
MaazKilos: Fare \Fare\ (f[^a]r), v. i.

Kilospieter2627  after the meeting was too much for me i cant keep up when things fly like that17:09
magespawnright go to go work a bit, back later17:10
pieter2627yea, those two conversations were also almost parallel17:10
Kilosyeah i give up with that17:10
Kilosi like things like now Q+A after each other17:10
pieter2627gremble mentioned that he is good at proofreading - has he check the grammar on africa's site?17:11
pieter2627yip, this is better - i also don't pay too much attention to names so get confused at times17:12
Kiloslol he has seen the site, i think if he found something wrong he would have said so17:12
pieter2627ok, i'm then just gonna do a last check before proposing those merges17:13
* pieter2627 have to install nikola first... but wanna try something17:13
Kilosok17:14
SquirmGood evening17:22
Kiloshi Squirm  17:23
inetprogood evening17:43
inetprooh and hullo uncle Kilos17:43

Kilosnormally you read scro;; backs all over17:45
Kilosscroll17:45
Kilosand find whas wrong where17:45
Kiloswhats17:45
inetprohmm.... lemme check17:46
Kiloslol17:46
Kilosyou know im sure to make the membership application next thursday at midnight17:46
Kilosi might even give you a +117:46
inetprouh17:47
inetprodid I miss something?17:47
Kiloshmm...17:48
kulelu88I can help you install nikola in docker18:02
Kiloswb pieter2627  18:03
pieter2627kulelu88: awesome, that is exactly what i'm trying to do18:03
kulelu88pastee.org your dockerfile and I will clean it for you pieter2627 18:03
* pieter2627 didn't realise i got disconnected18:04
pieter2627kulelu88: have not created one yet, just started (run) an python:2.7 to test18:04
kulelu88don't download that 900MB version of theirs18:05
kulelu88the first world doesn't think of africa when they write their 1GB software for testing18:05
Kiloswow18:06
pieter2627haha, already did18:06
kulelu88unless you live in cape town, which is trying to be first world18:06
pieter2627lol18:06
kulelu88with your wine and cheese and hipsters 18:07
kulelu88and startups18:07
pieter2627do you suggest installing python in a debian image?18:07
kulelu88pieter2627: I went with an ubuntu install. my image + python = 350ishMB18:07
pieter2627ok (debian is about 100Mb smaller that ubuntu)18:08
kulelu88i'm just used to the ubuntu way now, so I stuck with it18:09
pieter2627me too18:09
pieter2627just explorer debian - aren't they same anyway18:09
kulelu88you'd get flamed for saying that in murican channels18:10
* pieter2627 is clearly wrong then18:10
pieter2627did you install python 2.7 or 3.[3-4]?18:11
kulelu882.718:11
pieter2627will try that then18:12
kulelu88check which version superfly and them used for the site18:12
Kilos3.4 i think18:13
pieter2627we talked about it the other day, but forgot18:13
Kilosinetpro  which python did we use for the sites please18:13
kulelu88python --version18:13
kulelu88sudo python --version18:13
pieter2627Kilos: ^^18:14
kulelu88sudo rm -rf /18:14
Kilos2.7.618:14
pieter2627just NOT that last one18:14
kulelu88possible that they may have used a venv. go into the directory where nikola is installed and check version there18:15
Kilosrm: it is dangerous to operate recursively on ‘/’18:16
Kilosrm: use --no-preserve-root to override this failsafe18:16
Kiloslol18:16
Kilosmissed not 18:16
pieter2627see Kilos is clever18:17
Kilosi coulda sworn we used 3.418:17
Kiloseverything else is 2.7 but something rings a bell about 3.418:17
kulelu88Guidos desire18:18
Kilosinetpro  ping man18:18
Kiloshe is buried in python bot land18:19

gremblesmile so eloquently surmised the problem with induction :P20:55
grembleEspecially scientific induction20:55
smile:-O and that means?20:57
grembleIf you see 9999 9999 white swans and decide that all swans are white, you do not necessarily have a truth, since observing one black swan will negate your theorum that all swans are white20:58
Trixar_zaHypothesis20:59
grembleHypothesis, theorum. Semantics. 20:59
Trixar_zaNo, Theories are proven by experimentation.20:59
Trixar_zaSo not semantics21:00
grembleNo. I don't do experiments to prove theorums. I construct proofs21:00
grembleHypotheses are also tested by experiment21:00
smile:)21:01
Trixar_zaNo, they are tested by experimentation. That's their definition. They're the guesses to what you're observing. Experimentation proves it, which turns it into a theory21:01
Trixar_zaThat's why it's the theory of evolution, not the hypotheses of evolution :|21:01
grembleHow will you test the fundamental theorum of calculus by experimentation?21:02
Trixar_zaYou can tell I've had this argument with creationalists21:02
grembleI can tell that you should read Karl Popper :P21:02
Trixar_zaMath is pure science. You can't fake it. It will always work out that way. That's proof. Experimentation is just another form of proving your observation and explaination of it correct.21:03
smileThe bible is real. The bible itself, not its contents. :-P21:03
Trixar_zaNo, some of what is in the bible happened. But if you think it's historically accurate, then you've missed the point of it.21:04
grembleYou can fake it though. Russell gave us the set of all sets paradox, Godel has shown us that anything more expressive than Peano Arithmetic has paradoxes. So even "pure" formal systems come with flaws21:04
grembleSo to think something derived from there is flawless is naive21:04
Trixar_zaparadoxes aren't flaws21:04
grembleOf course they are21:04
Trixar_zaOnly if you believe self-contradiction isn't logical.21:05
grembleen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_explosion21:05
grembleIf you can prove something is true and its negation is true, you can prove anything21:06
grembleContradiction* not negation21:06
Trixar_zaMakes sense to me. But you're wrong about it proving anything. I hate using the term because of that blasted book, but most things have various 'shades of gray' to it and not just two extremes.21:07
Trixar_zaWell, using it to prove everything that is21:08
grembleBy proving anything I mean propositions that can only have true or false outcomes. Anything more complex than that is not the realm of logic21:09
smileSlaapwel :)21:09
grembleequality etc21:09
gremblegood night smile 21:09
smileInteresting :-)21:09
Trixar_zaThen you have a very shallow view of logic and reality :P21:09
grembleI highly doubt that 21:10
grembleLogic != Reason21:12
grembleand your reality is not something that exists outside of our man-made universe21:12
grembleDoes anyone here know why there are Riots in Baltimore?21:14
Trixar_zaWe have our own riots and stuff, so we don't really care? Oo21:16
superflyI find it interesting, Trixar_za that you say evolution is a theory, but in reality you can't run an experiment on it...21:43
grembleSee "working hypothesis" :P21:44
grembleBut I will go do Category Theory in silence and not argue over the internet xD21:44
superflyAnd I must go to bed.21:46
superflyNight21:46
grembleCheers21:46
Trixar_zaYou can. With short-lived organisms and plants.21:47
superflyRight. You keep on believing that.21:49
Trixar_zaThat's how they did it for the last few decades with the first experimetation of genetics being done with wheat.21:50
Trixar_zaBy a monk no less21:50
grembleThat was not evolution. That was an experiment on hereditary traits21:51
grembleFuck. I keep getting sucked in21:51
grembleHaha21:51
Trixar_zaActually, I have a simpler solution.21:55
grembleGo for it21:55
Trixar_zaI'm done and I'll /ignore gremble - problem solved and I won't keep getting sucked into his whatever this is21:56
grembleThat, is actually an excellent solution21:56
gremble:P21:56
Trixar_zaI've already had to leave one channel because of somebody that liked to contradictory and loved turning people against me. I'm not going to go through that again.21:57
Trixar_zabe*21:57
grembleOh. I am in no means or way trying to be malicious21:57
grembleI apologise if that is the tone that came across21:57
grembleAnd I most certainly don't want to turn anyone against anyone21:58
