asciilifeform: (found this gem when testing an otherwise 100%-portable gnat makefile)

asciilifeform: the linker -- barfs.

asciilifeform: dun matter what you use, old gcc, gnat, etc.

asciilifeform: this btw on the libc level.

asciilifeform: grade a+++++ monkeyware

asciilifeform: ur customer and their needs, plus the long-term support you will need to provide.'

asciilifeform: 'Static linking of user binaries is not supported on Mac OS X. Tying user binaries to the internal implementation of Mac OS X libraries and interfaces would limit our ability to update and enhance Mac OS X. Instead, dynamic linking is supported (linking against crt1.o automatically instead of looking for crt0.o, for example). We strongly recommend that you consider the limitations of statically linking very carefully, and consider yo

asciilifeform: phun phakt:

asciilifeform: knight, in case anyone did not know, designed and built the original lispm.

asciilifeform: in other lulz, https://archive.org/stream/Link-16-Joint-Key-Management-Plan-28-April-2015/Link%2016%20Joint%20Key%20Management%20Plan,%2028%20April%202015_djvu.txt

asciilifeform: every time.

asciilifeform: every time! that i think 'what new idiocy could possibly be inside'

asciilifeform: this is the last time i permit a linux kernel to be used on my watch that i did not with own hands build.

asciilifeform: 'too many is as good as none, so let's then give'im none'

asciilifeform: i have no words.

asciilifeform: 'because when asciilifeform enables coredumps, surely what he MEANT to do is to ENABLE EXCEPT IF TOO MANY'

asciilifeform: i shit thee not.

asciilifeform: on the box.

asciilifeform: the result, incidentally, is ZERO COREDUMPS

asciilifeform: because in their cockroach universe, THIS MAKES SENSE

asciilifeform: penny in the fusebox.

asciilifeform: 'The ability to limit concurrent coredumps allows dumping core to be safely enabled in these situations without affecting responsiveness of the system as a whole. I have several servers running with this patch applied (actually backported to v2.6.26) and it has allowed me to deal successfully with the situation described above.' ☟︎

asciilifeform: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1241453 << burn them all.

asciilifeform: because FuckHead-Linux decided that it is somehow ok to 'skipped coredump'

asciilifeform: well no !

asciilifeform: it does not exist on my gentoo boxen.

asciilifeform: wtf is this, and why does it exist.

asciilifeform: turns out my log is full of these.

asciilifeform: Skipping core dump

asciilifeform: Pid 4783(fastwerker) over core_pipe_limit

asciilifeform: but normally, dupes get properly marked.

asciilifeform: (how? i've nfi)

asciilifeform: this would of course mean that Framedragger's set contained massive dupeage somehow. ☟︎

asciilifeform: it must have.

asciilifeform: which is my working hypothesis.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the one way this is possible, by my reckoning, is if the deduplication somehow failed.

asciilifeform: to complicate matters, there were a handful of jokers who made prime moduli.

asciilifeform: so it is special case, it is marked by bernstein but must stay green until another factor is found.

asciilifeform: it does not. but by bernstein's algo -- does.

asciilifeform: does a modulus count as 'has factor' if gcd(it, another) == it ?

asciilifeform: btw this is not wholly trivial q

asciilifeform: ty trinque

asciilifeform: i have 0 objection

asciilifeform: also worx

asciilifeform: i'd rather print 300 retractions than 3000.

asciilifeform: as soon as this batch fully digests, i'ma switch off the werker until further notice. could be couplea days.

asciilifeform: so probably no mega-find here.

asciilifeform: and a total of 3 since dec. 15.

asciilifeform: but yet again, there's been 0 hand submissions since dec. 28.

asciilifeform: worst case is that we (or somebody ELSE) found an undocumented boojum concerning bernstein's algo.

asciilifeform: that ~will~ have to be dealt with.

asciilifeform: patience, folx. i have a potentially catastrophic wtfomf111 here.

asciilifeform: slowly.

asciilifeform: trinque: i'ma have to reread.

asciilifeform: i was not, evidently, a tard. not of this type at any rate.

asciilifeform: interestingly i found several instances in log where werker crashed with a div0. and then went, by hand, to verify if i am a tard and permitted a crafted key containing 0 as modulus to be submitted. but no dice.

asciilifeform: lelz

asciilifeform: though it wouldn't account for what we saw here, possibly.

asciilifeform: i have a suspicion re what.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'ma take home a copy of the db, and find out.

asciilifeform: but it is a pretty obvious thing.

asciilifeform: maybe i die tomorrow and you lot will do this !

asciilifeform: but i have not yet done this !

asciilifeform: made using 'false witnesses' for various primality algos

asciilifeform: with 'pseudoprimes'

asciilifeform: nao eventually i'ma make a veeeery speshul 8ball

asciilifeform: and the bitness of it.

asciilifeform: (homework)

asciilifeform: estimate primorial of N.

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: prime count is approx log (N)

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: nontrivial bitnesses

asciilifeform: this is not expected to happen in the lifetime of the universe.

asciilifeform: and no, it has not.

asciilifeform: the one thing i did this week was to reintroduce the 8ball

asciilifeform: (werker is as it was in april.)

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i have so far not made any change.

asciilifeform: )

asciilifeform: (i'ma handle this case by putting the brakes on marking 'phuctored' anything for which a factor that isn't 1 < f < mod is known

asciilifeform: so for next couple of hours, until the second half of this bernsteinization, there will be 100s of mods marked 'phuctored' for whom the only marked factor -- is themselves. which is Wrong

asciilifeform: but this cannot be relied on.

asciilifeform: in all previous cases -- they were.

asciilifeform: with these moduli.

asciilifeform: so folx please do not rush to qntra or wherever.

asciilifeform: (this is a bug! as in, a case i never properly handled! when entire modulus is also a factor of another. i will have to filter these)

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: not repeats. but mods-inside-mods

asciilifeform: and the db is deadlocked nearly to death.

asciilifeform: load

asciilifeform: for one thing, not a single key fell into the user funnel today.

asciilifeform: 'db resent' is not a thing that happens.

asciilifeform: by attempting to load ~every~ result, as, predictably, it wants to.

asciilifeform: it is very difficult, presently, because archivebot thermonuked the thing.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i am slowly working my way through wtf happened there.

asciilifeform: and rather like it

asciilifeform: you are ready to part with this feature, trinque ? because i happen to use it quite often ☟︎

asciilifeform: it must display.

asciilifeform: because maybe i pasted the ---BEGIN PGP...... 3 seconds ago.

asciilifeform: and, again, 'displayify daily' will nuke the 'use as sks, check pasted keys in real time' aspect.

asciilifeform: dumping whole thing would take considerably longer.

asciilifeform: naked moduli. no names, no fps, no keys, no structure. linearly.

asciilifeform: trinque: and, again, only MODULI get dumped regularly
