mircea_popescu: it doesn't matter when it would apply. it turns out, through bitter experience, that c machines and especially the slaves that feed them can NOT live in
a world where there's not strict, table-lookup-based, equivalency between words and chars.
mircea_popescu: if i take
a buffer, split it up in words, and give you some and him some, and you convert them to strings and give them back, i must be able to reconsturct the original buffer without possibility of error.
mircea_popescu: but the fucking concept of putting
a turing complete machine in the bitstream/string mapping has got to fucking burn already. who the fuck even hatched this idiocy.
mircea_popescu: you'll still going to have to do some porting. just as long as it's not 52 or some other mit-esque idiocy, should really not be
a big deal.
mircea_popescu: (it seems perhaps
a smart move to actually make it 64 bit - for one thing there will probablyt never be 128 bit machines.
phf: i've been mulling over that question with logs. fwiw, entire log can be kept in memory for analysis, annotation, whatever, 180mb as utf-8 byte arrays. with unicode strings takes up twice the memory on 16-bit cmucl, and ~~4 times on 32-bit sbcl. i'm not yet convinced that transcoding everything you get into string and then transcoding it back to
a bytearray onto the wire is the best strategy
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform as long as "unicode was sent" neatly transforms into "we received
a broken string of ascii" all is well.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform same as what means cleanly in medicine : is it
a fistula or
a bump.
phf: no, and while we're on downsides, unicode integration into the rest of the system is dodgy (there's
a lot of assumptions in lateral code that chars are 1 byte)
phf: tradeoffs) and much better for floating. there's still
a tightly integrated interpreter (i heard sbcl brought that back in recent releases), so doing eval even on early 2000s machines is almost instantaneous for repl work. memory usage is much much better (pretty sure sbcl core policy is "memory is cheap")
trinque: when I get around to it I'm going to pester the port maintainer to get
a flavor going for that
phf: it's
a bit down the pipeline for me. there were some attempts to make cmucl go entirely syscall, but as it stands it's probably 40% there. i want to link it to musl first, and then play around with control interfaces uses curses/cl-charm, which is when i'll test out this thing
assbot: GitHub - sabotage-linux/netbsd-curses: libcurses and dependencies taken from netbsd and brought into
a portable (at least to musl) shape ... (

☟︎ mircea_popescu: it's unclear that giving away coca-cola for free specifically hurts the thing coca-cola is
a head of.
mircea_popescu: that's the other thing you know, every other derp here that i ever visit has bought
a huge tv, oft times at
a cost that compares to that of his car.
mircea_popescu: seriously, if you can't paint
a canvas within 10x10, or if you can't tell your story in 700mb, you've got other problems than painting or making movies.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: lulzy bullshit
a la cinavia is trivially defeated if you care to, irrespective of how the material was obtained.
mircea_popescu: (this, for any deeply insecure personalities that may be reading the logs, does neither say that big is good thus therefore bigger is necessarily better, nor does it propose that there can't be
a "big enough". so simmer down.)
mircea_popescu: ima try to identify the mammaries and pick the species with the largest ones as
a candidate for intelligence.
mircea_popescu: and we know for
a fact that the tits ~were~
a major factor in the academic performance of these girls, because the better boobs (with maybe one exception) agglomerate at the front and between the teachers.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes> i am categorically unqualified to opine on this << wasn't
a matter of cryptography, merely of you know, "what's reasonable management of contest"
punkman: I'd also buy shares in S.SLY if it was
a thing
punkman: no open-source alternatives, and from
a quick search, seems like no proprietary alternatives either, unless you only need
a subset of the functionality.
mod6: jurov: test worked with just
a regular clearsigned message.
mircea_popescu: more\s the case - the endless list of us derpage gives us
a list of concrete violations to take to those who facilitate the activities of the international crime syndicate. we can say to these people : the us is
a rogue state. you further their conspiracies at your personal risk.
mircea_popescu: “[The Antiguan legal victory] gives us
a concrete decision to take to others who facilitate SlySoft and their business. We can say to those who do business with them: ‘This is an illegal activity’,” AACS’s lawyer added.
BingoBoingo: DVD/bluDVD copy thing drew
a bunch of USG aggro. Derpy thorn in copyrasta's sides but still
a thorn. One of the longest running "legit" ones.
assbot: Logged on 07-11-2015 23:34:52; asciilifeform: 'no need have i of mercy, / no need have i of laurels, / but let me have
a rifle, / and let me have
a horse, / and if i chance to perish, / let my red platoonmates, / let my red platoonmates,/ make'em pay, of course.'
BingoBoingo: S.NSA get revenue BEFORE cardano ships would be
a headline
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what, so s.nsa makes
a profit out of your proposal ?
assbot: Logged on 25-02-2016 00:43:43; mircea_popescu: once that went away, "city" took over heat generation. except it's impossible to run
a thing made to WASTE HEAT efficiently
assbot: Logged on 25-02-2016 00:29:59; mircea_popescu: the idea being that i announced
a contest, haven't seen much in the way of submissions, ima award the 10 btc prize to alf for an implementation of
a c-s derivative.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: you gotta consider at least once, but often several times
a year too much water is
a problem in this region. Maybe once every 5-10 years driety is problematic.
BingoBoingo: Nah water here almost universally tends to be metered on
a per building basis
assbot: Logged on 24-02-2016 23:40:41; BingoBoingo: Most of the ads I've seen bundle water/sewer into the condo fee, but may be
a regional quirk

☟︎ assbot: Logged on 24-02-2016 23:04:27; *: asciilifeform pictures pete_dushenski's postman grunting forth
a capsule, with letter
mod6: I'm kinda torn, I want us to move forward with 'g', so Cramer-Shoup fits the bill for sure. On the other hand, I'd like to think that over
a long interval we might see some interesting submissions eventually.
mircea_popescu: the idea being that i announced

☟︎ mircea_popescu: "Again, according to the parties’ submissions, such
a submission is made despite the understanding communicated by the Tor Project that the Tor network has vulnerabilities and that users might not remain anonymous." o oops, forgot to say "according to information first, and to date only published on trilema, [...]".
BingoBoingo: Most of the ads I've seen bundle water/sewer into the condo fee, but may be

☟︎ BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> and
a collectively-owned staircase. << Also collectively metered water
mircea_popescu: except in the us - quite
a lot of legal precedent re spite spikes
jurov: here from law follows that you really own only air between the walls in
a condo
mircea_popescu: and the problem doesn't end with egress. suppose i wanna take down
a wall. "can't - building will collapse" "but my title ?" "fuck your title, our wall".
mircea_popescu: argentina suffers from
a bit of german pox. specifically, they had
a military junta in the 70s, it beat the shit out of the tards, but eventually failed economically.
mircea_popescu: actually come to think about it, that's what i should do. start
a "beat nags club". get
a prize per extracted tooth or somesuch.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: so "what they're on about" is the once in
a lifetime hurricane, the homegrown pope, the meteor, the exceptional event that they have no frame of reference with which to process
pete_dushenski: orifice bleeding for everyone,
a chicken in every oven !
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski the fancy socialmedia tards are all about how "femicidio" is
a thing.
