bblfish: sponsored by france, eh?
16:22:53 [bblfish]
:-) yes, unemployment benefit
16:23:09 [mattl]
ah :)
16:23:26 [mattl]
i had visions of the french people clubbing together to pay you.
16:24:20 [melvster]
when he's finished they are going to put a babel fish on top of the eifell tower :)
16:24:57 [bblfish]
yes, that would be nice
16:25:01 [bblfish]
good idea
16:25:14 [mattl]
never realized bblfish = babelfish
16:25:29 [rszeno]
rszeno (~rszeno@86.125.252.118) has joined #dig
16:25:35 [bblfish]
ah yes, babel fish was taken
16:26:02 [mattl]
i read it as "be back later, fish" all this time.
16:26:14 [bblfish]
heh
16:26:35 [melvster]
"so long and thanks for all the fish" -> "be back later, fish" -> "bblfish"
16:26:58 [mattl]
i'm just a toy company impersonator
16:27:02 [bblfish]
ah, that works too. :-) Got a freedom box here btw
16:27:09 [melvster]
wow nice
16:27:20 [bblfish]
but have not had time to install it yet
16:28:45 [melvster]
mattl: you know that bblfish wrote the alta vista babel fish translator?
16:29:37 [melvster]
someone emailed me the other day and said, 'i dont have time to bablefish it' ... so he's actually a very too :)
16:29:47 [mattl]
melvster: i didn't know that.
16:29:51 [mattl]
that's pretty awesome.
16:31:11 [bblfish]
that was a long time ago. Now trying to get this dsitributed social web thing going. But it's still about getting people to communicate, so it still works
16:32:43 [melvster]
the social web is like the web was in 1989, everyone wants to make their own system
16:33:16 [melvster]
then came along the URI to unite everything together
16:37:06 [bblfish]
yes, with a lot of sweat and hard work by people building better and better systems and improving with user feedback, as Mark Andreesen did
16:38:41 [melvster]
although mosaic wasnt perfect
16:39:05 [melvster]
the worldwideweb original was a browser AND editor
16:39:13 [melvster]
mark was supposed to make an editor too
16:39:42 [melvster]
that's what we're trying to repair now with the read write web
16:43:17 [mattl]
emacs is a browser and an editor ;)
16:43:48 [melvster]
all it needed was a URI and it could have conquered the world! :)
16:47:16 [bblfish]
I wonder if we won't end up all writing Lisp in the far future...
16:48:10 [mattl]
melvster: it has a URL
16:48:19 [melvster]
good start!

of course, you need a browser to get there.

melvster, your mail about the game of life, i think is possible and probably not very dificult to implement
20:52:24 [melvster]
rszeno: doesnt actually have to be the exact game of life, but something similar on the network
20:53:40 [rszeno]
yes, i know, :)
20:54:12 [rszeno]
are many possible variants
20:55:55 [rszeno]
one cell can be a given server, put online -> born, offline -> die
20:56:40 [rszeno]
setup a server means to create a cell in fact
20:57:43 [rszeno]
starting with a single cell you can trigger setup for few server, multiplication
20:59:06 [rszeno]
i guess all of this can be done in automate way,
21:00:18 [rszeno]
sound scary, :)
21:04:56 [rszeno]
rules are very simple, what is difficult is to find values for parameters in such a way to avoid some cases, stop propagation for example.
21:05:27 [rszeno]
or saturation
21:07:00 [melvster]
yeah
21:15:28 [rszeno]
i didn't study too much celluar automaton, i was mor interested in fractals but seems that is possible to simulate a turing machine using this type http://mathworld.wolfram.com/UniversalCellularAutomaton.html
