08:45:16 <Guest24437> why not?
08:45:30 *** leobard (n=Miranda@88-134-158-182-dynip.superkabel.de) has joined #swhack
08:45:32 <sbp> because there's no addition function
08:45:48 <Guest24437> what language?
08:45:48 <[bjoern]> Because the formalism I am required to use is fucked up
08:45:50 <[bjoern]> .wik Primitive recursive function
08:45:51 <phenny> "The primitive recursive functions are defined using primitive recursion and composition as central operations and are a strict subset of the recursive functions (recursive functions are also known as computable functions)." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_recursive_function
08:45:55 <[bjoern]> that language.
08:46:45 <_ulises> you should use java
08:46:54 <_ulises> in java it's as simple as 1 + 2 + 3
08:46:56 <[bjoern]> You should shut up.
08:47:11 <_ulises> heh heh
08:51:51 <sbp> .title http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8032125.stm
08:51:53 <phenny> sbp: BBC NEWS | Politics | Harman: 'I don't want to be PM'
08:52:45 <[bjoern]> He should try a Shermanesque statement instead.
08:54:10 <[bjoern]> "Ms Harman made her point on the BBC by defacing a newspaper report"
08:57:05 <sbp> he who?
08:57:26 <sbp> Labour has been a kind of comedy troupe this week
08:57:41 <sbp> and oh dear, xkcd is planning to do a miniseries
08:57:43 <[bjoern]> HarMAN?
08:57:55 <sbp> what is it with xkcd's miniserieses? they're always terrible
08:58:05 <sbp> so Har means Not, presumably
08:58:11 <[bjoern]> They tend to have one good part, and the rest rubbish
08:58:17 <[bjoern]> That's a point.
08:58:35 <sbp> though I shouldn't say that
08:58:43 <sbp> because now you're going to use Har for Not in like three months' time
08:58:48 <sbp> and I'm going to have no idea what you're on about
08:58:56 <sbp> and you're going to be all winnerly
08:59:01 <[bjoern]> No
08:59:04 <sbp> heh
08:59:08 <[bjoern]> I would not wait three months.
08:59:17 <sbp> yeah, I was being very optimistic
09:00:32 <sbp> the Harman thing reminds me of Blair
09:00:45 <sbp> when he was asked whether he'd quit if he was voted in again
09:00:50 <sbp> and he said no, definitely not
09:00:54 <sbp> and then he was voted in again
09:00:55 <sbp> and quit
09:01:07 <sbp> they're very good at comedy, New Labour
09:01:40 <[bjoern]> The Queen should come to parliament and play whack-a-mole.
09:01:53 <sbp> eh, they tried that in the 17th century
09:01:58 <sbp> it... it didn't work out so well
09:03:17 <[bjoern]> But now we have tubes.
09:03:38 <sbp> will probably make it even worse
09:04:03 <sbp> "Harman: I'd fight for leadership" - Telegraph headline
09:04:10 <sbp> she came into the BBC News studios
09:04:17 <sbp> and inserted "not" between I'd and fight
09:04:17 <[bjoern]> And in the second age (beta) worse is better.
09:04:17 <sbp> hehe
09:06:25 <sbp> oh, I just connected that with what you quoted earlier
09:06:29 <sbp> funny, I thought it was a joke
09:07:10 <sbp> Harriet Harman: the Joke that Turned Out to be Real
09:07:36 <[bjoern]> Like twitter.
09:07:49 <sbp> yeah...
09:08:15 <sbp> technically though, if a Member of Parliament sees a newspaper counterlie headline, I think they should be allowed to deface it to comply with their lie instead
09:08:43 <sbp> hmm. unless their lie is a clever counter-counterlie
09:09:08 <sbp> in which case I suppose the newspaper should be allowed to deface them?
09:09:11 <sbp> I dunno, tricky
09:09:14 <[bjoern]> I find the lexical proximity of deface and defecate disturbing.
09:09:23 <sbp> they probably are cognate!
09:09:26 <sbp> .ety deface
09:09:27 <phenny> "c.1325, from O.Fr. defacier, from des- 'away from' + face 'face.'" - http://etymonline.com/?term=deface
09:09:29 <sbp> .ety defecate
09:09:30 <phenny> "1575, 'to purify,' from L. defæcatus, pp. of defæcare 'cleanse from dregs, purify,' from the phrase de fæce 'from dregs,' pl. fæces 'feces.' Excretory sense first recorded 1830 (defecation), Amer.Eng., from Fr." - http://etymonline.com/?term=defecate
09:09:35 <sbp> nope. oh well
09:09:44 <sbp> English is disappointing sometimes
09:10:08 <[bjoern]> Call me when it's not.
