09:24 schestowitz; <blockquote>
09:24 schestowitz; <p>As you can easily tell, line breaks made at the beginning of the chapter affect the potential line breaks you can do later. Sometimes it is worth it to make a locally non-optimal choice at the beginning to get a better line break possibility much later. Evaluating a global metric like this can be potentially slow, which is why interactive programs like LibreOffice do not use this method.</p>
09:24 schestowitz; <p>The classical way of solving this problem is to use dynamic programming. It has the requirement that the problem must conform to a requirement called the Bellman optimality condition (or, if you are into rocketry, the Pontryagin maximum principle). This is perhaps best illustrated with an example: suppose you are in Paris and want to drive to Venice. This requires picking some path to drive that is "
09:24 schestowitz; optimal" for your requirements. Now suppose we know that Zrich is along the path of this optimal route. The requirement basically says, then, that the optimal route you take from Paris to Zrich does not in any way affect the optimal route from Zrich to Venice. That is, the two paths can be routed independently of each other. This is true for the basic form of Knuth-Plass line breaking.</p>
09:24 schestowitz; <p>It is not true for line breaking in practice.</p>

19:22 Techrights-sec2; ack
19:24 schestowitz-TR; but the upside is, more and more people talk about the LF the way we do
19:24 schestowitz-TR; and the LF is on the run, in fact it seems quite a few staff have left
19:43 Techrights-sec2; ack
19:43 Techrights-sec2; on the run is merely adequate, reform or dissolution is necessary
19:43 Techrights-sec2; preferably reform
19:44 schestowitz-TR; same as Novell in 2007
19:44 schestowitz-TR; many left
19:44 schestowitz-TR; inc. PR head
19:44 schestowitz-TR; sellout is widely know as a TEMPORARY and not a sustainable gain
19:44 schestowitz-TR; like selling on'es blood, to borrow PJ's anbalogy
19:45 Techrights-sec2; Sadly, that's probably accurate
19:45 Techrights-sec2; that is the goal, I would say. Fool people into making a fatal change
19:45 Techrights-sec2; while appeasing complete idiots by saying it is a gain
19:45 Techrights-sec2; blood is renewable if harvested at a rate lower than at which it is replenished
19:45 Techrights-sec2; kidneys are not nor are other organs
19:45 Techrights-sec2; marrow is kind of renewable but very inconvenient and painful to harvest
19:45 Techrights-sec2; I suppose it could be sold too
19:46 schestowitz-TR; I don't know that part of the anatomy very well, but the point PJ made did not bother with that level of granularity
19:46 schestowitz-TR; she also blasted LF for allowing Novell in
19:46 schestowitz-TR; Novell!
19:46 schestowitz-TR; Look who's in LF NOW
19:46 schestowitz-TR; I cannot recall her saying much about Nokiasoft
19:49 Techrights-sec2; ack
19:52 schestowitz-TR; I am going to update the wiki with the latest chart (jpeg, the source has transleuncy)
19:52 Techrights-sec2; ack
19:52 Techrights-sec2; charts are best as GIF of PNG though
19:52 Techrights-sec2; indexed color in charts saves a lot of space
19:54 schestowitz-TR; seeing that it would be (imho) foolish to blast hp/system76 or give visibility to sec FUD, I will focus on EPO the rest of the night until mey 1am shift
19:54 schestowitz-TR; indexed color is good when you don't use shadows and the chart is now >1000px in size
19:54 schestowitz-TR; wavelets make this file smaller while it's work in progress
19:55 Techrights-sec2; JPEG tends to have horrific compression artifacts visible in charts, graphs,
19:55 Techrights-sec2; diagrams, logos, and icons :/
19:56 schestowitz-TR; yes, wavelets are based on observations in photographs of natural things
19:56 schestowitz-TR; but there too there is loss, it's just harder to detect
19:56 schestowitz-TR; biab
