- # [00:18] <Hixie> hmmmm
- # [00:18] <Hixie> instead of having pattern.offsetX and pattern.offsetY
- # [00:18] <Hixie> why not just put all the transformation logic into CanvasPattern
- # [00:18] <Hixie> so you can arbitrarily transform the pattern
- # [00:19] <TabAtkins> +1
- # [00:19] <Hixie> i guess we'd have to add an explicit .resetPattern() so that people don't have to keep calling .setTransform(...) with an identity matrix
- # [00:20] <Hixie> er
- # [00:20] <Hixie> resetTransform()
- # [00:25] <Hixie> heycam, shepazu: any idea whether i should be referring to svg 1.1 or 1.2 for SVGMatrix? they seem to be different.
- # [00:26] <heycam> Hixie, 1.1
- # [00:26] <Hixie> k
- # [00:26] <Hixie> so er
- # [00:26] <Hixie> where is it defined?
- # [00:26] <heycam> coords.html I think
- # [00:26] <heycam> or types.html
- # [00:27] <Hixie> i found the idl, and a bunch of non-normative text like the html spec's "domintro" blocks that introduces each member
- # [00:27] <Hixie> but i can't find the requirements
- # [00:27] <heycam> remember that the spec was written in a time when MUSTs weren't littered about everywhere
- # [00:27] <heycam> or without necessarily a lot of detail :)
- # [00:28] <Hixie> there's "without a lot of detail" and then there's no detail at all...
- # [00:28] <heycam> unfortunately the DOM parts of SVG 1.1 are often the areas that lack detail
- # [00:28] <Hixie> ok
- # [00:28] <Hixie> well
- # [00:28] <heycam> what specifically are you looking for?
- # [00:28] <Hixie> apparently i'm gonna be referring to this from the HTML spec
- # [00:29] <Hixie> so if you wanted something to focus on for SVG2, consider this a candidate :-)
- # [00:29] <heycam> ok! :)
- # [00:29] <heycam> are you looking for steps on what the SVGMatrix methods do? or...?
- # [00:29] <othermaciej> is canvas going to use SVGMatrix to represent transforms?
- # [00:29] <Hixie> heycam: i'm looking for something sufficiently detailed that we can make sure it's tested in the html test suite
- # [00:30] <Hixie> othermaciej: yeah, apparently it's what mozilla does
- # [00:30] <Hixie> othermaciej: so i'm looking at how feasible it is
- # [00:30] <othermaciej> makes sense
- # [00:30] <othermaciej> there is also SVGTransform, I can't remember how it is supposed to be different
- # [00:30] <heycam> there was discussion on the FX list recently about a unified Matrix interface -- that was more merging CSSMatrix/SVGMatrix
- # [00:30] <Hixie> so there is
- # [00:30] <Hixie> heycam: yeah
- # [00:30] <heycam> othermaciej, SVGTransform is the list of transform items like "scale(4)" etc.
- # [00:31] <Hixie> ah, yeah, SVGTransform is just to represent the lexical form
- # [00:31] <Hixie> not to represent an actual transform
- # [00:31] <othermaciej> there also appears to be an SVGTransformList
- # [00:31] * heycam frowns at SVGMatrix.rotate() not even defining if the argument is radians or degrees or what
- # [00:31] <heycam> sorry
- # [00:31] <heycam> SVGTransform is one item
- # [00:31] <heycam> in an SVGTransformList
- # [00:31] <Hixie> SVGTransformList is the list of SVGTransforms
- # [00:31] <Hixie> that <svg:* transform=""> is represented by

- # [00:32] <Hixie> heycam: i got stuck at the definition of "a"
- # [00:32] <heycam> lol
- # [00:33] <heycam> above the IDL it shows what a, b, c, etc. correspond to in the matrix
- # [00:33] <Hixie> well i can guess what might make sense to happen, sure
- # [00:34] <othermaciej> CSSMatrix seems to be a 3d transform
- # [00:34] <othermaciej> it seems useful to be a 2d-transform-specific interface
- # [00:34] <othermaciej> though the name difference being "SVG" vs "CSS" for 2d vs 3d isn't the world's best naming convention
- # [00:34] <heycam> yeah, that sucks
- # [00:34] <Hixie> i find it amusing that neither SVGMatrix and CSSMatrix both to define a method to reset the matrix to the identity transform
- # [00:35] <jamesr__> just make a new one!
- # [00:35] <Hixie> i wonder whether i should not bother adding such a method to the context/path/pattern interfaces and instead assume that Matrix will spawn it, or if i should just continue the design of canvas and have a method parallel to the object

- # [00:36] <Hixie> christ, CSSMatrix is defined about as badly
- # [00:36] <othermaciej> SVGMatrix operations generally return a new matrix rather than mutating the existing one
- # [00:36] <Hixie> all these specs use the old DOM style of defining interface members
- # [00:36] <heycam> Hixie, will the canvas allow assignment of a different matrix object on to the context?
- # [00:36] <Hixie> single worst way to define an interface ever invented
- # [00:36] <Hixie> yet everyone thinks it's so cool and copies it everywhere

- # [00:37] <heycam> what is "old DOM style"?
- # [00:37] <Hixie> the three nested <dl>s you see in all the old DOM specs
- # [00:37] <heycam> ah right
- # [00:37] <heycam> yeah it does take a bit too much vertical space for my liking
- # [00:37] <Hixie> heycam: not planing on allowing assignment currently, but i suppose we could
- # [00:37] <Hixie> sure, why not
- # [00:38] <othermaciej> I think it's generally better to apply value semantics to transform matrices, so that to alter the transform in use for something you give it a new matrix rather than attempting to mutate the one returned by a getter
- # [00:38] <othermaciej> a method to reset a specific matrix to the identity matrix would not be useful in that model
- # [00:38] <Hixie> k, external method it is
- # [00:39] <othermaciej> all you need is an easy way to make a fresh identity matrix
- # [00:39] <jamesr__> matrices are a bit on the large side to copy all the time
- # [00:40] <othermaciej> yeah, but having to map mutation operations to operations on some arbitrary other object that owns the matrix is also crazy
- # [00:41] <othermaciej> (also, for the 3x2 representation of an affine transform matrix, it's barely more expensive to copy than a rect)

- # [07:13] <Hixie> my written french is atrocious

- # [19:51] <AryehGregor> So if adding new content attributes fell out of favor, it must have been relatively recent.
- # [19:51] <Ms2ger> It fell out of favour?

- # [19:52] * AryehGregor also thinks so, but wants more opinions before he posts to www-style
- # [19:52] <TabAtkins> Any event which can have an element as a target should have a corresponding content attribute.
- # [19:53] <AryehGregor> There's an onaddtrack IDL attribute on TextTrackList, so it must still be in vogue to add them.
- # [19:54] <TabAtkins> I presume it was just a consequence of this being a CSS spec and so the editors forgot.

- # [21:45] <AryehGregor> Witness: Picard's great theorem. W. T. F.
- # [21:46] <AryehGregor> Or even his little theorem.
- # [21:46] <AryehGregor> "All entire functions are onto except possibly for one point."
- # [21:46] <Ms2ger> Also: well-order of the reals, wut
- # [21:46] <AryehGregor> You can well-order the complex numbers if and only if you can well-order the reals, no?
- # [21:47] <TabAtkins> I thought the reals were trivially well-orderable?
- # [21:47] <TabAtkins> Just on the standard < relation?
- # [21:47] <AryehGregor> Only if you assume full choice.
- # [21:47] <AryehGregor> That's not a well-ordering.
- # [21:47] <Ms2ger> Not trivially
- # [21:47] <AryehGregor> Well-ordering means every set has a least element.
- # [21:48] <AryehGregor> Every nonempty subset, to be pedantic.
- # [21:48] <TabAtkins> Gah, duh.
- # [21:48] <TabAtkins> Sorry.
- # [21:48] <AryehGregor> Like the natural numbers.
- # [21:48] <Ms2ger> You apparently can't even give a constructive definition of the well-order of the reals
- # [21:48] <AryehGregor> Countable choice isn't enough to well-order the reals.
- # [21:48] <AryehGregor> Well, since it requires full choice, yeah, constructive definitions are probably not going to happen.

- # [21:49] <AryehGregor> s/good/evil but necessary if you want any algebra to work/
- # [21:49] <AryehGregor> Analysis could get by just fine with countable choice, but algebra would kind of be dead.
- # [21:50] <AryehGregor> I mean, countable choice means that uncountable vector spaces need not have a basis. Bad.
- # [21:50] <Philip`> I'm sure most people in the world could get on just fine if algebra was dead
- # [21:50] <AryehGregor> (more precisely, vector spaces would only need have a basis if they have a countable spanning set, I guess)
- # [21:50] <AryehGregor> . . . well, yes, although I've heard some lame people use it for physics and cryptography and stuff instead of recreation.

- # [21:51] * AryehGregor would like to mentally rehearse the proof of the equivalence of the axiom of choice, Zorn's lemma, the well-ordering principle, and the fact that every vector space has a basis, but decides that returning to billable work is a better idea
- # [21:52] * TabAtkins agrees that rehearsing proofs is a fun way to spend one's time.
- # [21:52] <TabAtkins> I used to put myself to sleep by rehearsing the reasoning behind efficient prime searches.
- # [21:54] <AryehGregor> Which efficient prime searches, in particular?
- # [21:54] <TabAtkins> Just the basic techniques to speed up a linear search.
- # [21:54] <TabAtkins> This was back in middle school.
- # [21:54] <AryehGregor> Like the sieve of Eratosthenes?
- # [21:54] <AryehGregor> That's the best I know, but I have some vague idea it's not considered efficient by fancy modern standards.
- # [21:55] <TabAtkins> Yeah, like that.
- # [21:55] <gsnedders> Heh — that came up in my maths lecture today.
- # [21:55] <TabAtkins> I didn't know fancy modern techniques back in the day.
- # [21:55] <gsnedders> (Both the Sieve of Eratosthenes, and other techniques)
- # [21:55] <AryehGregor> Does anyone have any clever ideas of how to deal with this? https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=15709
- # [21:55] <AryehGregor> No CSS specs specify anything about rounding right now, but it's kind of hard to test programmatic APIs in that case.
- # [21:56] <AryehGregor> Also, reftests implicitly test rounding in some cases anyway.
- # [21:56] <TabAtkins> But I knew why checking only things that were 1 or 5 mod 6 was efficient and hwo to improve it, or why searching for factors only up to the sqrt of your target was okay.

- # [21:57] * gsnedders was given an unconvincing proof of that earlier today…
- # [21:58] <TabAtkins> Unconvincing proof of which?
- # [21:58] <gsnedders> I should probably look at it again, and probably realize I'm just being silly
- # [21:58] <gsnedders> 1 or 5 mod 6
- # [21:58] <TabAtkins> 0, 2, 3, and 4 all imply the number is divisible by 2 or 3.
- # [21:59] <gsnedders> Yes, but the existance of divisors greater than 6?
- # [21:59] <TabAtkins> Huh?
- # [21:59] <TabAtkins> It *only* gives a guarantee that the number is/isn't divisible by 2 or 3.
- # [21:59] <TabAtkins> It says nothing about any other divisors.
- # [22:00] <TabAtkins> 25, for example, is 1mod6.
- # [22:00] <gsnedders> "Every prime p >= 5 is of the form 6k±1"
- # [22:00] <Philip`> Sounds like an advancement on simply counting sheep - you collect six sheep at once, fan them out in six different directions, drop two thirds of them into cunningly-placed bottomless pits, and then merge the remaining streams of sheep together before applying a more complex filter and only counting the ones that remain alive at the end, and then you fall asleep
- # [22:00] <gsnedders> Somehow in my head I turned that around.

- # [22:00] <gsnedders> (i.e., Every pos. int. k has some prime 6k±1)

- # [22:01] <gsnedders> Exactly.

- # [22:20] <gsnedders> Ms2ger: First year maths courses here are quite easy — and huge numbers take them, because they're required for practically all subjects in the faculty of sciene.
- # [22:20] <Ms2ger> Mm
- # [22:20] <gsnedders> (Actually, for most subjects they're not compulsary, just "strongly recommended", and not doing them massively limits course choice in later years)
- # [22:21] <Ms2ger> Everyone here gets their own math courses
- # [22:21] <gsnedders> Though the perception of how easy they are is likely down to the fact that traditionally in Scotland you go to uni after five years at secondary school — one fewer than in England, but with one more year of the degree.
- # [22:22] <gsnedders> Most people nowadays do six years of secondary school in Scotland, to the standard needed for English universities, and have done a lot of the first year courses for science subjects.
