00:28:13 <sh1mmer> sbp I don't supose python has something akin to my $var = <<'EOB';

00:28:39 <sh1mmer> ''' or """ ?
00:28:44 <kpreid> doesn't have nice starts-at-next-of-line, but yeah
00:29:02 <kpreid> just like ' or " except it is closed by another three
00:29:15 <sh1mmer> ok
00:29:16 <MoiraA> well, got to go to bed

17:12:00 <sbp> quiet day as usual
17:12:07 <crschmidt> yep.
17:12:41 <crschmidt> sbp: Thank you for phenny. "tell foo" has proved invaluable since it came into being, and it's the only bot of its kind that's in a bunch of the channels I use.
17:13:28 <sbp> you're welcome. the functionality is stol'n and updated from Monty, so you ought thank Jibbler too
17:13:29 <Monty> gronda
17:13:58 <sbp> (and deltab for the updated syntax that phenny uses)
17:14:30 <sbp> proving that just enough cooks make the broth kick ass
17:16:53 <sbp> Monty: tell phenny something
17:16:53 <Monty> sbp: Okay, I'll tell phenny that next time I see them...
17:17:11 <sbp> phenny: ask crschmidt if this demonstration of the differences is to his satisfaction
17:17:13 <phenny> sbp: I'll pass that on for you when crschmidt is around.
17:17:14 <Monty> Hey phenny, sbp asked me to tell you: something [Sun Aug 01 18:16:49 BST 2004]
17:17:34 <crschmidt> okay.
17:17:37 <phenny> crschmidt: 17:17Z <sbp> ask crschmidt if this demonstration of the differences is to his satisfaction
17:17:47 <crschmidt> I liked when the syntax changed.
17:18:02 <sbp> yeah. 'twas the result of much debate
17:18:13 <crschmidt> But mostly, I just needed the bot to be in more channels ;)
17:18:17 <sbp> heh, heh
17:18:20 <crschmidt> Monty isn't in #foaf, #rdfig, #joiito, etc.
17:18:23 <Monty> Please don't use nine ammunition >:)
17:18:24 <sbp> if you need it in any more, just ash
17:18:29 <sbp> or ask
17:20:34 <crschmidt> * crschmidt nods
17:20:57 <crschmidt> I think it's in every channel that I use regularly, other than two which get small enough traffic that I don't need phenny, i just say it in channel :)
17:23:43 <kpreid> Monty, what kind of ammunition instead?
17:23:44 <Monty> Yes
17:36:19 <sbp> * sbp wonders how long before the rights to Monty are sold to Disney, and a wonderful series of five animated films starring him as the main character are made
17:36:20 <Monty> ($path) = <<'EOB';
17:36:41 <sbp> he answers most mysteriously
17:42:31 <kpreid> Monty, you couldn't find any other occurrences of those words so you just repeated the entire line, eh?
17:42:34 <Monty> Yeah man, Frank is they're voiced and went away

21:22:05 <kandinski> hey, crschmidt
21:24:46 <sbp> yes yes fella it's time to roffle get your nose to the levee and the rags to the bevvy,, we's gonna get on down on that dance floor and do a bit of SHEKKIN it mama like real dosh-diddly-flangerdy dang SHAAAEKIN' it ifya know what I--IFYA--know what I mean
21:25:29 <sbp> oh. I mean hi guys
21:25:49 <crschmidt> .g n3 tutorial
21:25:52 <phenny> n3 tutorial: http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/doc/
21:26:04 <sbp> http://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/Primer
21:29:10 <crschmidt> [ <menow:MeNowDocument> ; <menow:isWith> <foaf:Person> ].
21:29:31 <crschmidt> I'm not sure it that says what I want it to: I want to create a meNowDocument which says that i'm "isWith" an empty foaf:Person
21:30:57 <sbp> [ a menow:MeNowDocument;
21:31:00 <sbp> menow:isWith foaf:Person ] .
21:31:30 <sbp> "a" is syntactic sugar for rdf:type
21:31:39 <sbp> proper terminology: it's a keyword
21:32:00 <crschmidt> * crschmidt nods
21:32:15 <crschmidt> i think that if i write my examples in n3 from now on, i may not make so many striping errors :)
21:33:31 <sbp> yeah
21:34:13 <sbp> N3 is rather easy to get the hang of
21:34:26 <sbp> URIs: <http://www.w3.org/>
21:34:30 <sbp> bNodes: _:label
21:34:36 <sbp> literals: "this is a literal"
21:34:48 <sbp> qnames: ns:term
21:34:56 <crschmidt> so: [ a foaf:Person; menow:hasMeNowDocument menow:MeNowDocument ] . is good rdf, i guess
21:34:57 <sbp> variables: ?x
21:35:17 <sbp> nah--that should be a instance of MeNowDocument
21:35:28 <sbp> anyway, then it's:
21:35:31 <sbp> s p o .
21:35:37 <sbp> s p o; p o .
21:35:42 <sbp> s p o, o .
21:35:49 <sbp> and by extension:
21:35:57 <sbp> s p o; p o; p o, o, o, o, o .
21:36:12 <sbp> bnodes can also be spelled [], in which case they have no label
21:36:18 <sbp> so, for example
21:36:28 <sbp> [] rdf:type foaf:Person, rdfs:Resource .
21:36:49 <sbp> as you already know, the properies and objects can be put inside one of those bNodes--really that's a special case
21:36:57 <sbp> [ rdf:type foaf:Person, rdfs:Resource ] .
21:37:24 <sbp> the main keyword is "a" which means rdf:type, but there's also => which is used in logic
21:37:40 <sbp> that's all you need for the rudiments
21:38:22 <sbp> # comments use hashes
21:38:29 <sbp> to bind namespaces to prefixes:
21:38:41 <sbp> @prefix p: <http://example.org/uri> .
21:39:00 <sbp> the empty URI refers to the current document, hence:
21:39:06 <sbp> <> rdf:type :Document .
21:39:13 <sbp> as you can see, you may also use an empty prefix
21:39:23 <sbp> that must be explicitly bound, and must be done as follows:
21:39:27 <sbp> @prefix : <#> .
21:39:27 <supybot> sbp: Error: 'prefix' is not a valid command.
21:39:32 <sbp> (or to whatever URI)
21:41:04 <sbp> RDF lists can easily be done using parens
21:41:08 <sbp> so for example:
21:41:21 <sbp> :subj :prop ("p" "q" "r") .
21:41:25 <sbp> which is equivalent to:
21:41:54 <sbp> :subj :prop [ rdf:first "p"; rdf:rest [ rdf:first "q"; rdf:rest [ rdf:first "r"; rdf:rest rdf:nil ] ] ] .
21:42:05 <sbp> analogous to rdf:parseType="Collection" in RDF/XML
21:42:09 <crschmidt> * crschmidt nods
21:42:56 <sbp> how's that for a ten-minute N3 tutorial, eh?
21:44:11 <crschmidt> heh
21:44:13 <crschmidt> quite good!

21:57:05 <candyman> *** candyman is now known as kandinski
22:00:44 <sbp> slightly rewritten and posted to http://miscoranda.com/109
22:00:58 <sbp> (hold)
22:01:36 <sbp> crschmidt: "nah" meant that you were wrong, for the reason stated
22:01:39 <crschmidt> you need to escape <> at "URIs"
22:01:48 <sbp> ooh, ta
22:02:53 <sbp> escaping bug, should be all fixed
22:03:11 <crschmidt> nifty.
22:03:19 <sbp> anyway, a person can't have a me now document that is the MeNowDocument class, right? they can only have one that is an *instance* of that class
22:04:30 <crschmidt> is that true of foaf:Person too, though? That's a class...
22:04:47 <crschmidt> (I think I'm being limited by my relatively limited knowledge of RDF here, I apologize for any really stupid things to come out of my mouth)
22:05:22 <sbp> 518::Of ullages and dottles...
22:05:47 <sbp> well, you said that the person is an instance of foaf:Person, not that they are an foaf:Person, so that's okay
22:05:50 <sbp> this here:
22:05:51 <crschmidt> I want to say, <foaf:Person><menow:hasMeNowDocument><menow:MeNowDocument /></menow:hasMeNowDocument></foaf:Person>
22:06:13 <sbp> [ a foaf:Person; menow:hasMeNowDocument menow:MeNowDocument ] .
22:06:16 <sbp> breaks into this:
22:06:30 <sbp> _:HypotheticalPerson rdf:type foaf:Person .
22:06:37 <sbp> _:HypotheticalPerson menow:hasMeNowDocument menow:MeNowDocument .
22:06:48 <sbp> the file line is fine. it says that the type of the person is foaf:Person
22:07:07 <sbp> the second line says that they have a menow document that is the rdfs:Class menow:MeNowDocument, which is wrong
22:07:15 <sbp> it's like saying that you have a mother foaf:Person
22:07:20 <sbp> foaf:Person is not your mother
22:07:45 <sbp> following at all?
22:08:25 <crschmidt> Yeah, that makes sense
22:08:26 <sbp> what you want to say in RDF/XML is pretty much what you said, yeah, though normally you'd have an rdf:about on the menow:MeNowDocument element to give its URI
22:08:33 <sbp> in N3, you're looking for something like:
22:08:39 <sh1mmer> * sh1mmer looks for something to eat
22:09:05 <sbp> [ a foaf:Person; menow:hasMeNowDocument <http://example.org/myDoc> ] . <http://example.org/myDoc> a menow:MeNowDocument .
22:09:20 <sbp> i.e.
22:09:22 <sbp> _:HypotheticalPerson rdf:type foaf:Person .
22:09:29 <sbp> _:HypotheticalPerson menow:hasMeNowDocument <http://example.org/myDoc> .
22:09:39 <sbp> <http://example.org/myDoc> rdf:type menow:MeNowDocument .
22:09:41 <crschmidt> Got it, okay.
22:09:53 <crschmidt> What if there's no URI to it?
22:10:04 <sbp> then you can use a bNode
22:10:05 <crschmidt> Then it's just an anon node?
22:10:06 <crschmidt> Right.
22:10:16 <sbp> [ a foaf:Person; menow:hasMeNowDocument [ a menow:MeNowDocument ] ] .
22:10:23 <crschmidt> spiffy
22:10:26 <crschmidt> thank you :)
22:10:28 <sh1mmer> rdf/xml gives people bad habits
22:10:30 <sbp> you're welcome
22:10:33 <sh1mmer> they stop thinking in triples
22:10:36 <sbp> yeah
22:10:38 <sh1mmer> isn't Sean a gem
22:10:39 <crschmidt> sh1mmer: i never started
22:10:44 <crschmidt> sh1mmer: that's my problem :)
22:10:55 <sh1mmer> crschmidt well have a cookie for starting
22:11:03 <sbp> well they don't stop thinking in triples, they just think about trees and infoset items at the same time, which leads to a level eight mess
22:11:04 <crschmidt> sh1mmer: and why i'm trying to switch to thinking mentally in n3, because RDF/XML gives me striping errors
22:11:06 <sh1mmer> * sh1mmer give crschmidt a cookie and sbp one for explaining
22:11:10 <sbp> heh, heh
22:11:36 <sh1mmer> sbp trees a great structures for information in one use case.
22:11:47 <sh1mmer> people usually cant see past their own use case
22:11:50 <crschmidt> When you're talking about the money that grow on them? :)
22:11:54 <sh1mmer> or the one they are doing rightn ow
22:12:20 <sbp> well they're not all that great for representing triples, so basically all RDF in XML is going to be fundamentally screwy
22:12:59 <crschmidt> [ a foaf:Person; menow:hasMeNowDocument [ a menow:MeNowDocument; menow:isWith foaf:Person ] ] . <- I feel like that's right in my head but wrong in my syntax
22:13:10 <sbp> though as you say, for some RDF applications the RDF/XML and the RDF graph bear some rough similarity...
22:13:31 <sbp> what does menow:isWith mean?
22:14:09 <crschmidt> It's an indication of someone they're with at the moment
22:14:12 <sbp> looks like you might be confusing instances and classes again, but that's pending the definition of menow:isWith...
22:14:21 <crschmidt> I think I am
22:14:28 <sbp> ah, yeah. don't forget, foaf:Person is a class. it's not a person, it is the class of all people
22:14:30 <crschmidt> oh!
22:14:31 <crschmidt> got it
22:14:47 <crschmidt> [ a foaf:Person; menow:hasMeNowDocument [ a menow:MeNowDocument; menow:isWith [ a foaf:Person ] ] ] . <- I feel like that's right in my head but wrong in my syntax
22:14:53 <crschmidt> er, ignore that sentence at the end
22:14:57 <sbp> heh, heh
22:15:07 <sbp> that's right, though now you've got a little smushing problem
22:15:27 <crschmidt> well, in each of these cases there's going to be more information
22:15:32 <jsled-laptop> *** jsled-laptop (~jsled@dsl252.wnskvtwa.sover.net) has joined #swhack
22:15:35 <crschmidt> foaf:Person will have a sha1sum attached
22:15:36 <crschmidt> for example
22:15:43 <sbp> that is to say, the inner [ a foaf:Person ] is a different bNode to the outer [ a foaf:Person; ... ] one, when really (I'm guessing) you mean them to be identical
22:15:58 <crschmidt> Actually, I want them to be different
22:16:03 <sbp> well yeah, but since they're in the same file you can just use the same bNode label and save all that p... ah, okay
22:16:06 <jsled-laptop> loggy, pointer
22:16:06 <jsled-laptop> See http://swhack.com/logs/2004-08-01#T22-16-06
22:16:11 <sbp> * sbp waves to jsled-laptop
22:16:15 <jsled-laptop> hey hey
22:16:15 <crschmidt> I want to say "Chris has a Document that says He isWith Alicia"
22:16:24 <sbp> good work introducing the dude last night; shame he didn't stick around though
22:16:37 <sbp> ahh!
22:16:45 <sbp> hmm
22:17:01 <sbp> are these really documents?
22:17:07 <kandinski> use "'mention'"
22:17:12 <kandinski> * kandinski snickers
22:17:15 <sbp> yeah. actually, ignore that question
22:18:43 <crschmidt> sbp: nah, not really, just RDF descriptors of information
22:18:55 <jsled-laptop> sbp, thx, yah.
22:18:59 <sbp> cool. less confused now
22:19:17 <crschmidt> I'm trying to design something so that it can be a document containing current status, or to be included inside a foaf:Person so that people can look back over recent ones, for example
22:19:29 <crschmidt> http://schema.peoplesdns.com/menow/ is the idea
22:19:51 <crschmidt> but the RDF schema there was tossed together in about an hour and forgotten for a couple months
22:19:59 <crschmidt> I'm just going through and working on it again :)
22:23:14 <sbp> is Joel De Gan an IRCish person too?
22:24:10 <crschmidt> sbp: yeah, he is, he hangs out in #foaf as joeldg
22:25:19 <sbp> thanks
22:40:19 <crschmidt> * crschmidt sighs.
22:40:27 <crschmidt> My SubEthaEdit experiment failed.
22:40:38 <crschmidt> I was hoping that people would login for me and write this schema.
22:40:40 <crschmidt> It's not working ;)
22:41:16 <sbp> buy me a mac and I'll be happy to write it for you
22:41:35 <eaon> i would at least join ;)
22:41:45 <eaon> just saw the thread
22:41:47 <sbp> (or port SubEthaEdit to Windows)
22:42:02 <sbp> (much better to buy me a mac though)
22:42:12 <eaon> port it to vi!
22:42:30 <crschmidt> eaon: i would love to see that, but *shrug*
22:42:39 <crschmidt> I'm not about to bother reverse engineering a protocol
22:42:49 <eaon> hehe
22:42:59 <sbp> * sbp tries to hold back the vi comments...
22:43:10 <sbp> gmmnnggggggggrm!
22:43:39 <eaon> dd
22:43:40 <eaon> :P
22:43:48 <crschmidt> heh
22:43:53 <sbp> oh is vi an editor then? I wouldn't've thought so--it won't even let you backspace over line endings
22:43:59 <sbp> darn. it had to come out
22:45:07 <sbp> Homer: Uh... I lost my map.
22:45:13 <sbp> Smithers: You haven't been issued a map yet.
22:45:54 <crschmidt> if i provide a property in an RDF schema, that property can then be used like: [ a menow:MeNowDocument; menow:isListeningTo "Some Literal String here ] .
22:45:57 <crschmidt> right?
22:46:13 <crschmidt> I don't need to neccesarily define the range as a literal.
22:46:14 <kpreid> crschmidt: write what schema for you?
22:46:16 <sbp> yep. don't forget the closing " delimiter for the literal
22:46:21 <crschmidt> oh, right :)
22:46:26 <crschmidt> kpreid: meNow
22:46:59 <kpreid> crschmidt: well, i have SEE, so if there's something I could look at i might think about it ..
22:47:20 <crschmidt> kpreid: i dumped a link to foaf mailing list
22:47:32 <crschmidt> kpreid: i'm basically just rewriting the existing schema, cause it's broken in lots of ways
22:47:56 <kpreid> aha
22:47:57 <crschmidt> kpreid: see://207.22.18.137:6942/menow.rdf
22:48:42 <kpreid> ummm
22:48:52 <kpreid> where's the 'reduce change highlight intensity' option? :)
22:49:03 <kpreid> * kpreid reads
22:49:30 <eaon> hehe, fixing whitespace
22:49:54 <crschmidt> kpreid: preferences
22:49:59 <crschmidt> changes, slide to "pale"
22:50:21 <kpreid> oh hey yeah
22:50:25 <kpreid> i thought that was for my own color
22:50:36 <crschmidt> there's one for each
22:51:38 <crschmidt> oh wait, no there's not :)
22:51:39 <kpreid> hm, may i fiddle with the comments?
