More interesting for me, is his contribution to the observation that the event horizon has an informational invariant.

easye: have a look at: http://www.jp-petit.org/MPLA-singularite.pdf https://www.youtube.com/user/JPPETITofficiel https://www.jp-petit.org/science/Le_Modele_Cosmologique_Janus.pdf

pjb: Not sure what to make of _Le Modele Cosmologique_ as a text. But certainly a good thing to read on this day of sorrow.

In case anyone needs a bit of entertainment, I'd suggest "The New Cosmology" (Stanislaw Lem, short story in "A Perfect Vacuum")

I don't know which mailing lists you guys are subscribed to, but https://filebox.tymoon.eu//file/TVRVeU9BPT0=
11:12:35
Shinmera
Well, the authoritative source is linked on the website, which is https://lists.lrde.epita.fr/listinfo/elsconf

Didier Verna originated and then the list sent it, possibly after an unknown delay

Shinmera: I registered to ELS this morning, never got a confirmation email though, is it normal?
14:09:25
Shinmera
It should only display that if it already sent the email. Are you sure it didn't land in spam or something?

(make-array 16) #| --> #(0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0) |# creates a vector of 16 elements, not a matrix (a 2D array).

borei: the question was for a url to the documentation of gl:uniform-matrix. If want some help. Obnviously you cannot read the documentation so we will have to read it for you.
15:31:58
pjb
Still no url. If you want us to do all the work, you should pay us. The url, or bitcoins!
15:45:10
borei
but glUniformMatrix4fv (the documentation i was reading) - just array of float numbers
16:54:19
Shinmera
borei: Also, as far as I know, gl:uniform-matrix-4/3/2fv also just takes a flat CL array of data.

jmercouris
I didn't see it in any of the charts, are there really so few people using Lisp?
17:08:20
jmercouris
Do we have any way to estimate how many people are using it? any proxy measures?
17:27:16
pjb
World wide, I'd guess there are between 60 and 100 companies using lisp. between 300 and 500 CLispers, worldwide.
17:27:54
whoman
i would increase it, there are many hobbiests, unknown bloggers, nonirc users, obscure github projects
17:29:11
whoman
counting up common-lisp.net projects, github.com, gitlab, bitbucket, savannah, ... i would say less than half for sure are not employed for doing lisp , and less so at actual lisp companies
17:40:01
whoman
i dont remember who shared this link with me, but i want to thank them, i am reading it now : https://wps.aw.com/wps/media/objects/5771/5909832/PDF/Luger_0136070477_1.pdf

Xach: can you get log5 into sharplispers ? Gary King can't transfer ownership on his own, see https://github.com/gwkkwg/log5/issues/2#issuecomment-372848806
18:06:44
fe[nl]ix
the Github docs say "Users must have repository creation permissions within the receiving organization before they can transfer a repository that they individually own"
18:08:43
Shinmera
Seems good to me. Otherwise you could just push garbage repositories into other orgs, right?
18:09:43
fe[nl]ix
and the owners of the target org would receive a notification that they can approve or reject that request
18:10:48
fe[nl]ix
when I asked Sunrin Shimura for the ownership of CIM I got an email asking me to approve the transfer
18:10:53
shenghi
That could, and probably would, still lead to a lot of spam for popular (or unpopular) org owners.
18:12:33
shenghi
Don't underestimate the collective internet's power to thoroughly abuse otherwise perfectly good ideas.

jmercouris: really really rough estimate of Lisp usage might be https://api.github.com/search/users?q=language:Common%20Lisp
18:24:42
fouric
Not entirely sure if I actually did that right, but the results *appear* to show...624 users with Common Lisp repositories.
