  8. # [00:15] <jgraham> couldn't you just do 100-% of sniffable pages and then make the graph log-log?
  9. # [00:17] <Hixie> sorry Philip`, didn't mean to start something :-)

  12. # [00:20] <jgraham> I don't get that thread. Usually Sam seems amenable to pitching in when he wants a problem solved. Here less so.
  13. # [00:21] <annevk> all i get is snappy responses and no real answers
  14. # [00:21] <annevk> i won't bite next time, i hope
  15. # [00:22] * Hixie replies
  16. # [00:22] <Hixie> i don't get it though
  17. # [00:22] <Hixie> he keeps bringing this up
  18. # [00:22] <Hixie> but never responds to requests for clarification
  19. # [00:23] <Philip`> I suppose http://philip.html5.org/data/encoding-detection-loglog.svg almost makes sense, though it hits a rendering bug in KPDF
  20. # [00:23] <Philip`> I'm not sure what that graph is useful for, though
  21. # [00:25] <jgraham> Well it tells you that for every factor of 2 you increase the number of bytes above ~256 you get an approximately equal decrease in the number of incorrectly sniffed pages
  22. # [00:25] <jgraham> So there is no obvious sweet spot

  24. # [00:28] <annevk> Hixie, do you know that if you use min(x, x) syntax in your spec you need some kind of reference?
  25. # [00:28] <Hixie> hm?
  26. # [00:28] <Philip`> min(x, x) seems a quite verbose way of writing x
  27. # [00:29] <annevk> min(x, max(y, z))
  28. # [00:29] <annevk> is using such constructs acceptable mixed with prose or is it considered pseudo-code?
  29. # [00:30] <Philip`> Is x+y pseudo-code?
  30. # [00:30] <Hixie> annevk: oh you are asking whether i think one needs a reference, sorry, i misunderstood what you were asking
