hanbot: mircea_popescu i noted several times in the last weeks/months phf was reporting pretty clearly what was being worked on, etas, etc, fwiw --eg http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-25#1789616 , http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-25#1786023 . it's gotta be difficult to keep absolutely everything not only organized but also organizedly communicated, eh. ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: is the manifest issue fixed ? is the graphing done ? am i what, going to lose v now because i'm too polite to yell, and left to your own devices you're just going to break it, permanently, obscurely, and forget about it ? or what's the fucking logic here. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: yo phf, what's the status on any of the n items you were going to be delivering except failed to ever mention again ?
mircea_popescu: i suppose the "reasonable" notion would be to not start this conversation well past midnight ; but my expectation is that were i to wait till tomorrow, or till six weeks from now, it'll still have to be carried exactly in the same manner for exactly the same reason, so what the hell difference does it make.
lobbesbot: ave1: The operation succeeded.
ave1: !Q later tell asciilifeform The gcc makefiles use gnatls to find the runtime system directory, they do 'gnatls -v | grep adalib'. When ADA_OBJECTS_PATH is set, that line will return two directories and the build fails. Could you past the output of gnatls -v? (I can fix it with an extra head or tail call, but that also seems fragile)
mircea_popescu: kinda the problem with imaginary objects. they converge.
mircea_popescu: originally. then they slowly got absorbed into larger items
asciilifeform: funnily enuff this is not how orig gosplan worked. ( there was a multitude of -- de-facto independent -- factories , often overlapping in subj matter )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, it's the fate of all government-powered pretend-business : to be rolled up into ever larger dollops, eventually a single one.
mircea_popescu: not to mention ease of handling
mod6: Strictly speaking, that's a very nice rack of tits, but the clothes-pins add some nice aesthetic.
mod6: I kinda dig the clothes-pins.
mod6: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-30#1806718 << Nice! Thanks :] ☝︎
asciilifeform: i.e. to take over the old functions of usg.microshit.
asciilifeform: and in long term to set the stage for 'we finally standardized pc hardware' ( on googlenintendo naturally )
asciilifeform: think, they collaborated on 'killing' gcc ( to be rid of the human mushroom ) and nao ditto for linuxkernel ( to be rid of the not always-cooperative linus )
mircea_popescu: https://blockchain.info/address/172Wm6TXmfnUGp9yXPorJrhRZzj4PSqRor << not even enough of a clue to seed his busking hat, the orc.
mircea_popescu: it's not proper to call it linux, it's gnu/linux, ok ? the inept crud on the side mattered, as proven by the fact that it was left behind once the core was stolen!
mircea_popescu: o look, fsf totally won.
ben_vulpes: on the topic of OSen, there's also alphabet's new "very much not linux" https://fuchsia.googlesource.com/
mircea_popescu: "are you doing anything here ?" "we're showing the way!"
mircea_popescu: if the population of venice consisted of these fucks, the turks would have discovered a decrepit fisherman's village populated of a bunch of stiff retards gathered on the beach pointing at the sea.
mircea_popescu: it's a great thing he made his own genesis that isn't.
asciilifeform: seems to contain a number of kindergarten c/asm tutorials by some orc, and little else
mircea_popescu: "better os because apps have gone to hell and here's some bits from wikipedia. paypal."
BingoBoingo: Another time a family with children booked the other beds in my room and despite "No guests under 18" they were here during one of the Carnaval weekends
BingoBoingo: And they make fine room decor hanging about in their lacy things.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Sure, There were a good number of times in January-February where my roommates for the night would be 7 identical argentine schoolgirls. They would sit in a circle and stare at their phones for hours, but at least they understand the importance of ventilation
BingoBoingo: But the Cowork is frankly boring. Insufficient turnover there. Same Uruguayos dicking around on photoshop and playing Pinoy all the time.
BingoBoingo: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-01#1806862 << On the plus side more common than Potato Niggers are identical Argentine Schoolgirls ☝︎

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, yes, but not there. because THEY CANT SEE IT. the difference between pantsuitism and aneurism -- minimal.

mircea_popescu: amusingly, it was in the log this morning. with peterl lol.
mod6: Lords and Ladies of The Most Serene Republic, The Bitcoin Foundation presenets the STATE OF BITCOIN ADDRESS for the month of April, 2018: http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2018-May/000299.html
asciilifeform: not aware, but will have to take mircea_popescu's word for it, if he saw this.
mircea_popescu: you are aware that "safe space" campuses with "no rape" ~= unwashed cunts yes ?
asciilifeform: but i suspect that we came off conveyor with pretty much opposite set of antifuses .
asciilifeform: i hesitate to say 'none', possibly i agree with mircea_popescu's taste ~somewhere~
mircea_popescu: you are aware i was using it in the general, to denote the whole kit and kaboodle, high heels, proper posture, not being a lazy fuck, etc ?
asciilifeform: hence 'unlikely to agree'.
asciilifeform: asciilifeform's orig point was precisely that... the clothespins dun do nuffin for asciilifeform . may as well be a hat with feather, or 9000 other things he's entirely insensitive to. and even the skins, i prefer the unedited ones. just-so.
mircea_popescu: but the idea isn't that 1980s chickie ~couldn't~ have been beautiful. of course could have been. the problem is that there wasn't who to put random clothespins on her nippes so she actually WAS beautiful. and for lack of that, well... she might as well could not have been, because unactualized potential and absent potential are not distinct in any sense.
a111: Logged on 2018-03-30 03:40 mircea_popescu: and "peasant civilisation" as in mirvniki or the wooden civilisation that covered the hills of transylvania as late as the 1800s is "both must repress"
asciilifeform: dun have to like sovok, but to blame it for http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-30#1791180 is ahistoric ☝︎
mircea_popescu: whole fucking point is that it's not fair nor will it ever be fair. cheat.
mircea_popescu: this is the whole fucking point. when the soviets are in charge they decide female sexual competition "not fair" hurr durr. everyone gets lazy, ugly and stupid.
mircea_popescu: but let's take the case of say drubich. chick didn't even WANT to be an actress ; yet her career conveniently spans the gap, and if you compare her work in the 80s with her work in the 90s, you can readily see the uglification effect of an all-soviet soyuz. even conquers age, somehow 30yo woman looks WAY THE FUCK better than her own teen self.
asciilifeform: see, if one were to ask asciilifeform , even a haphazardly-thrown dart into 1980s su will hit one, e.g. https://archive.li/2VPRj ( tbf does include some older era pics also )
asciilifeform: not seekrit, but unportable; we're unlikely to agree .
mircea_popescu: i don't get it, they're secret ?
mircea_popescu: show me a soviet hottie from the 80s.
asciilifeform likes the '88 su.
mircea_popescu: utterly unfucking watchable, i haven't even manage to get out of the establishing unrelated info part.
mircea_popescu: yeah, the mafia is now "white supremacists"
asciilifeform: oh hey is it based on that oddball 'nazi' treatise ?
mircea_popescu: there's no way to state it ; the streets of 70s ny are now cubicals ; the "that ain't the question" is some nigger's whine about "bombed villages" ; this age's depp "speaks arabic" as the magical god-downloaded-just-in-time hero ball. and so fucking on until you fall over.
mircea_popescu: one really should watch the two side by side to appreciate the sheer depth this soviet soyuz fell in but twenty short years.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in latest mosfilm news, "imperium" is the pantsuit v2.0 on donnie brasco. with the acting stars of the age (that harry potter cocksucker) and everything!
mod6: Of course! Happy to do it. :]
mircea_popescu: thanks for the work.
mod6: Once I fed it this string "ab6o78", that sprung the trap (see the GDB debugging portion near the bottom).
mod6: And now it makes sense because the initial test case I was using was all values in the normal hexadecimal range.
mod6: The thing that really threw me off during the analysis is that before and after test drivers were both yielding the same, correct, result. So I had to dig way in and debug to see exactly where to spring the trap.
mod6: And it turns out, perhaps by luck alone, that they missed a comma on one value that is outside the normal character values for hexadecimal. If they had missed a comma somewhere in there, whoa. Could mean all kinds of bad things - OR perhaps they would have just caught it earlier as nothing would have worked right lol.
mod6: The reason that I did the analysis so in depth, I wanted to absolutely get to the bottom of how bad this could be.
mod6: So it's really a two headed ugly bug.
mod6: You would hit index 111 if one passed an 'o' to ParseHex, triggering the landmine. What is supposed to happen, is; the loop is supposed to break if it ever hits -1 (0xff). However, if we hit [111] (0xfe) -2, we continue on.
mod6: In the array, there is a missing ',', which causes gcc/g++ not to puke, and simply ADDS(!) the two values together... in this case we had ,-1 -1, giving us -2. This does 2 things, shortens the filled depth of the array by 1, and changing the value from -1 (at index 111) to -2 (0xfe).
mod6: So to recap :
mod6: So this one is rather ugly; however, after analysis it appears that to step on the landmine one would have to pass a lower case 'o' to the ParseHex function. Which is outside the Hexadecimal range 0-9A-F. Not that someone couldn't do it, just that my guess is that the probability of hitting it is lower.
mod6: http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2018-April/000298.html << Lords & Ladies of The Most Serene Republic, enclosed is a defect I found in existing TRB, it's analysis, and fix.
mircea_popescu: douchebag, aite, so do a hundred or so, gpg me the links when done, and we can talk about how to franchise it after ?
douchebag: Yeah, does the 50-100 words have to be anything in particular?
mircea_popescu: douchebag, anyway, does that make sense ? questions or anything ?
lobbesbot: mircea_popescu: The operation succeeded.
mircea_popescu: !Qlater tell ckang you want in on this ?
mircea_popescu: the idea is to scale it up to whatever you can find, hundreds, thousands ? MILLIONS!
douchebag: oh yeah I can do that no problem
mircea_popescu: what i want you to do is first run this as a pilot ; and then see if you can find boys wanting to earn.
mircea_popescu: the way this would work in practice is : ima pay people to post links to trilema with a 50-100 word comment on forums. i figure it's worth what, a coupla bux ?
mircea_popescu: so, i want to run a little experiment, see if bioware can actually outperform my machinery as it stands, and perhaps learn a thing or two.
mircea_popescu: douchebag, let me run this by you see what you think.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile govt bought the "gotta provide for the ppl" nonsense.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-31 17:52 asciilifeform: trinque: 0 palpable delay between key and event was always the standard, and will forever remain the standard.
asciilifeform: ( and http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-31#1560740 , and there was a particular link some time in past yr which i now cannot find, where someone actually went and ~measured~ the reaction time delay of msdos, various winblowz boxen from past 20yr, crapple, bolix, etc etc and found exactly what i'd expect him to find ) ☝︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2014-11-16 18:45 asciilifeform: so, as described in my 'going nowhere' article, the modern winblows pc is in fact less efficient for virtually any practical purpose than its predecessors two decades earlier, despite a titanic amount of effort poured into the cpu micro-optimizations
asciilifeform: ( re 90`000 mice -- see also e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2014-11-16#925567 thread ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: in, say , 1950s, they had many fewer engineers (there was not this peculiar compulsion to conscript errything with a pulse into 'engineering' ) and the ones they had, designed autobahn ramps, there was all the employment they could use
asciilifeform: dunno that it even works in this direction; granary with busted walls is not 'to provide employment for 9000 mice', they just show up.
mircea_popescu: rather than plainly admit, like the arabs do, that ~90% of males are going to die as 30yo virgins ; allah will provide
mircea_popescu: gotta provide employment for all these "engineer" boys.
asciilifeform: they stave off the complexicollapse, same way as the fed pushed forward the monetary one
asciilifeform: the other driver, given as the 'nm shrinkage' is ~100% wintel-driven -- 'moar room for microshit bloat'
mircea_popescu: kinda transparently the driver there. "not so much economically useful, as politically expedient -- we want to 'no one else' it"
asciilifeform: ( iirc not long ago there was thread re the world's only 10nm fab, belonging to usg )
asciilifeform: aaha. the smaller the 'nanometrage', the moar incatronic the process.
mircea_popescu: well yeah. small process did that.
