[16:30:11] <chromas> I wasn't sure whether it made sense or not
[16:30:58] <boru> Formal verification is also such a broad term in this context.
[16:31:29] <boru> I mean, formally verifiable programming languages exist, and have done for decades.
[16:32:26] <boru> They're describing computational reduction and combinatorial explosion, which have also been around for decades, and are ultimately the essence of computer science.
[16:32:53] <boru> Reading that article, I really don't see what's novel here.

[19:37:09] <FatPhil> chromas: confirmed, most things apart from articles, prepositions and conjunctions get capitalised. Completely illogical, IMHO, and I think YOU SHOULD JUST CATAPULTISE EVERYTHING!
[19:38:27] <chromas> I used to see that on news sites
[19:38:34] <chromas> But they'd use CSS to capitalize it
[19:39:49] * chromas launches
[19:42:29] <FatPhil> Using CSS to capitulate is the correct way of doing it, TBH.
[19:43:12] <FatPhil> Even though I'm a lynx/w3m/elinks user, I don't care if my headings are miscapitalised.
[19:43:39] <FatPhil> I treat that as a bug (or lack of feature) in the browser, not in the webpage.
[19:44:42] <FatPhil> it's not the job of every webpage author to say "make this title in titlecase" for every title (by explicitly making it titlecase).
[19:46:45] <chromas> So then CSS needs to specify a titlecase mode ;)

[21:07:56] <FatPhil> Ah, slightly saner ferry booked, 10:30 departure 23:00 return (arrive 01:00)
[21:08:44] <FatPhil> Technically, today was our national holiday, but most of our clients are Finns, so it makes sense to take their holidays instead.
[21:09:09] <RandomFactor> Which of you would have -more- holidays?
[21:09:23] <RandomFactor> oh hell it isn't an either or. Take both.
[21:11:23] <FatPhil> Ah, I was wrong. .fi has today only, .ee has tomorrow and wednesday.
[21:12:21] <RandomFactor> Still recommending the 'both' thing
[21:12:55] <FatPhil> there's always a big set of jobs over summer, we do all the papers for a legal journal, and we're expecting a drop on Wednesday, which is why we're just doing the day-trip.

[21:44:07] <Sulla> is iron sky worth watching?
[21:44:17] <Sulla> i recall spending so long waiting for it to come out I stopped caring by the time it was released
[21:50:30] <RandomFactor> Moon Nazis? Good stuff, yeah.
[21:52:13] <chromas> ♫ We're Nazis on the moon, we carry a harpoon ♫

[22:06:18] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - The North Face is the Biggest Brand Yet to Join Facebook Ad Boycott - https://sylnt.us - ill-wind?
[22:18:05] <chromas> What better advertising than to announce you're not advertising to fit in?
[22:19:17] <RandomFactor> Be interesting to see what happens to their sales in a month. I'm betting limited movement at all. Particularly if they just spend the advertising bucks elsewhere.
[22:20:00] <chromas> Who's buying coats and stuff in the summer anyhow?
[22:20:22] <RandomFactor> Point.
[22:20:46] <chromas> Also, Facebook ads aren't exactly useful. I've been seeing a lot of "likjlfk"-like sponsored posts lately
[22:21:10] <RandomFactor> I don't recall any like that when I was on facebook last year
[22:21:22] <chromas> Yeah; I've only seen it the last few weeks
[22:21:40] <RandomFactor> hopefully it will burn out before I check it again.
[22:21:48] <chromas> Maybe they're having a coronAIDS special on sponsored posts
[22:22:07] <FatPhil> I buy most of my clothing out of season, and have a very adblocked and facebookless web ecosystem
[22:22:58] <FatPhil> when occasionally I use someone else's pc/phone/tablet, I don't have a clue what I'm looking at
[22:23:42] <RandomFactor> Just ask them, "is this a PC, Phone, or Tablet?"

[22:55:35] <RandomFactor> So, standing on the porch and launching the frisbee out into the storm so the dog can happily chase it over and over until well and thoroughly drenched. Abusive or Dedicated?
[23:06:47] <FatPhil> if the dog loves a shower, that's the natural way of enabling him.
[23:20:10] <pinchy> whats that an anagram of?
[23:24:34] <RandomFactor> He does indeed love to shower, climbs right in if I don't close the door to the bathroom :-p
