Ooh first time I've actually found a good situation to use a binary search and you can definitely feel the speedup

Looking through Jelly's long dictionary over and over again meant it took ages to optimally compress strings longer than 20 or so characters but now it's instant even for full sentences.

Unrelated String

wait were you actually using a linear search before

rip

Radvylf Programs

01:56

Well, sort of linear. I had a hashmap for where each letter started, so it took about a 26th as long as linear search, and then I remembered binary search exists lol

Seggan

@RadvylfPrograms its in alphabetical order?

Radvylf Programs

tbf I rarely sort stuff, as evidenced by my downloads folder

@Seggan yeah

Seggan

wouldnt that result in a longer compressed string

Radvylf Programs

No, every word is the same length to compress (well, there's two separate lists, but every word in those lists is the same)

Seggan

oh wait youre sorting it when compressing, not changing the actual indecies

Radvylf Programs

01:58

Not sure what you mean

The dict is in alphabetical order by default, that's what I'm searching though

Seggan

and the indexes are in alphabetical order too? (i.e. a = 1, aa = 2)?

Radvylf Programs

I...I guess yeah?

Seggan

i am confused on how the strings stay the same size

Radvylf Programs

Every word costs the same to encode

Seggan

is it?

Radvylf Programs

02:01

Yeah, it's just arithmetic encoding

Seggan

hmm

Radvylf Programs

Whenever you choose the next word, you modulo n by approx. 200k (or approx. 20k for the short word dictionary) and use that as the index

(or for encoding, multiply by that and add the index)

Seggan

wait the dict is that long?

wow

Radvylf Programs

Yeah, unnecessarily so IMO

Especially when it's somehow missing words like "and" and "not"

Seggan

even figs normal dict is only 9.8k

wait there is no small dict in fig

Radvylf Programs

02:07

9.8k seems a bit too small, although I guess it depends on where you got the dict

There were two iterations of Ash's string compression, the dict was about 66k in the first one and a half million in the second

Seggan

@RadvylfPrograms google frequency list

Radvylf Programs

@RadvylfPrograms (Which is rididulously big, but it was huffman coded by frequency so that didn't matter as much)

@Seggan Ah. You'll still miss out on a lot of important words, but that would be a pretty effective way to compress plain english I suppose

(Which doesn't tend to be what challenges involve, unfortunately)

Seggan

what do you think would be better

Radvylf Programs

Closer to 50k is a good balance I think, that's still under two bytes per word, but gives you more variety

It depends on your specific encoding a lot though

@PyGamer0 I saw a show once where a bunch of con men set up a fake gambling room. The TV was delayed by a few seconds, so the con men knew which horse won just a few seconds before everyone else in the room, letting them win a bunch of money. Maybe graffe is pulling the same ridiculous con?

@Mast I am offended by lyxal's messages

@PyGamer0 the TV coverage is delayed by about 5 seconds (actually maybe more) . So if I want the radio commentary to be in synch I need to delay the radio audio

Q: Can you delay audio output by 5 seconds?

I listen to the radio live using BBC sounds on my windows 10 machine. I just want to delay the audio by 5 seconds so that it is in synch with the TV coverage when I am watching sport. Is that possible by some technical/programming means?

windows audio

I think you should be asking that on superuser, actually.

Too broad for SO.

Since you haven't specified a programming language or anything yet.

But I'm not an SO mod, don't quote me on that.

We'll see.

But I will try it in a few hours if SO doesn't do anything. Thanks

Mast

I know Equalizer APO can delay sound, but I don't know by how much.

graffe

Ooh.. How would I feed the live audio into it?

Mast

What I used to do, back when I did things with audio, was use 2 outputs. Route 1 to the input, listen on the other.

Anything on the input of your PC, you can modify.

Doing that in software can be a bit of a hassle on Windows, that's why.

graffe

15:24

Does that require two laptops?

Mast

No, it used to require a dedicated soundcard and a piece of audio cable.

graffe

Do you think I can just plug the audio out into the microphone on a standard laptop?

Mast

That's more or less what we did, yes. You just need a second output to pipe the result too.

Could be bluetooth, but I don't know how to trick Windows into allowing that nowadays.

graffe

It seems you can record sound coming from Windows using e.g. stereo mix

pxeger

@Mast Just stand 1700m away.

Mast

15:30

@pxeger Have you calculated what the sound output at the emitter would be for that to be a convenient level at your location?

pxeger

this method is infinitely and easily adjustable if you need to change the delay

it also requires no additional software installation

Mast

It does require some hardware and lack of neighbours though.

pxeger

@Mast about 115dB(A)

measured from 1m away

That's to get 50dB when you're 1700m away. I think 50dB is about the typical volume of human conversation right?

Mast

That's about right.

You'd need festival speakers for that. Multiple.

graffe

Very grateful for all the practical advice. Probably easiest if I set up a major music festival first

user

@graffe Well, if you find a way to do it in Linux, you can use WSL. Might be overkill for this but if you're going to do any programming it might come in handy later

Mast

If you decrease the temperature of the air, the speed of sound through it will decrease as well.

graffe

15:44

@pxeger smart thinking

Mast

So with enough liquid nitrogen it might be possible to get a delay without requiring something the size of a festival terrain.

pxeger

If you run the headphone cable through the entire length of your blood vessels, it would only need to be wrapped about 16 times.

user

@Mast Can't you just use two phones and call one from the other?

Oh wait, that won't give you a delay

pxeger

that wouldn't be impractical enough

user

Ask your friend on the ISS to turn on the radio and call you :P

Ah, I've got it! You simply need a frame change. Why delay the radio when you can speed up the TV? Simply distort time so the TV is 5 seconds in the future

pxeger

15:47

If you ask someone on the other side of the world to set up 18 phone lines, and you set up 19 phone lines, and connect them all to each other, you can get a 5 lightsecond headphone cable which will have already been setup by the phone company

Mast

If the broadcast is at night, you could do an EME moonbounce at 432 MHz.

That would give you a delay of right about 2.5 seconds.

So, just do that twice.

Problem solved.

pxeger

Actually, instead of adding delay to the audio, you could remove the delay from the video: go and sit in the BBC commentators' box

Mast

You could, of-course, watch a recording of both.

And start the playback of once 5 seconds earlier than that of the other.

But this is a serious problem.

People made serious software to fix it.

pxeger

You could learn sign language, and then watch the signed version of the commentary. BBC sign language interpreters tend to have a delay of about 5 seconds

Mast

It's just that the world keeps changing so we need different interfaces every so often.

graffe

15:58

@user that would be cool

Neil

@graffe last time I listened to something on BBC sounds there was a "back 20 seconds" button. maybe the code behind that allows you to go back 5 seconds?

Mast

@graffe I don't know how advanced you want to get, but apparently VAC still exists.

It's a pain to set up, but it works.

If you can get VLC to play BBC sounds, I think you can get VLC to delay the audio

but BBC Sounds might be too DRM'ed to work in VLC

graffe

I don't think I can play it directly with VLC. The question is if I can redirect audio out to vlc

Neil

@Mast yeah I just noticed that, but would you need radiodelay as well?

@Neil good find!

pxeger

@graffe oh, I think VLC can do that actually, but I don't know if it would then be able to output to the same source at the same time

Mast

@Neil Only if you have the tuner in your PC, I think. That's what I linked to here.

graffe

@pxeger ok...small steps in the right direction though

Mast

Honestly, it has been over a decade since I tried this with consumer hardware.

Neil

@Mast I'm thinking you create a virtual audio cable, make the radio app output to it, then use radiodelay to listen to the virtual microphone and play it back 5 seconds later to the actual speakers

@graffe looks like @Mast found it first

People made serious software to fix it.

graffe

@Neil it's cool but I don't know how to do it yet

@emanresuA I want to credit you in the Pip readme for putting Pip on DSO. Should I credit you as emanresu A or as chunkybanana?

@Neil Rust is named after the fungus, not iron oxide

@Neil O(n) and O(2n) are the same, because thats just a constant factor, but the difference between O(2^n) and O(e^n) is not a constant factor, i think its more similar to the fact that O(n^2) and O(n^3) are both polynomial time, but are still different

@pxeger This is an incredibly cursed and underrated suggestion, +1

@DLosc I can't speak for them, but it may be safer to refer to them as emanresu, because I referred to them as "chunky" and "chunkybanana" a few times and they were not happy :P

CMQ: Should I write "Operator A is lower precedence than operator B," or "Operator A is lower-precedence than operator B"?
