ben_vulpes: aight thanks mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: mod6 so is pizarro gonna sell you things at cost ?!
mircea_popescu: well... it'll pass with me for fairytale reasons (irl i wouldn't have any reason to buy insurance on a fg, seeing how that'll be the day, and besides i got alf to squeeze ; but let's play.)
mod6: lol, if i wanted to get middleman'd, i'd get 'em from dpb!
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i'm going to roll the FGs into the rental cost of the machine; 20% markup for a year paid up front for the whole kit and caboodle if that passes with you ☟︎
mircea_popescu: also, are you gonna sell 5 to mod6 for an instant paper profit ? lol.
mircea_popescu: aaalmost there.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes now getting back to this deal of ours. 0.345773172 for a year of box as detailed ( http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-24#1785941 ) + 0.014 for one month of rack + ??? for a pair fgs ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: ok worx. all goes out by thurs at the very worst.
ben_vulpes: please to
ben_vulpes: can you jit them to me instead of your workshop?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: also plox to specify if you want the usb snakes, or sans ( the latter -- slightly faster , i 'jit'-stock snakes )
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i'll take 'em in exchange for the note at 0.5. ty! ☟︎
mircea_popescu: anyway, more generally, don't do the work-for-drawer idiocy. do things ; publish them, and so on. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: well that sure, just press it and voila.
mircea_popescu: what exactly is the benefit of redundancy in correct code ?
mircea_popescu: i guess. but there's so much work not currently bering handled seems somewhat of a waste to re-do things already done.
spyked: mircea_popescu, do you mean the irc logger? well, I figured moar redundancy can't do any harm; and it started as an occasion to study the various ways in which common lisp can handle the various pieces (database, irc, http). what I have so far is not very different from btcbase.org/patches/logbot-genesis , only I made it a point to avoid quicklisp and use manual imports etc.
mircea_popescu: spyked the bot is a solved problem, genesis and all. ☟︎
spyked: translations. I've been piling 'em up and taking them in small bits, which makes this very much non-productive work on the short term. I can prioritize if you deem any item to be particularly important (and I think it'd be best to first publish some of these before embarking on further quests)
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-26#1786219 <-- hey, that sounds like a really neat project, I wouldn't mind adding it to the list. on a related note, /me has been on a sort of semi-holiday for the last 2 months, which led to a lot of exploration on items of potential republican interest. e.g. the ada lisp scriptlang, an irc logger bot (which I could spin into a rss bot), the text browser thing and some out-of-the-blue ro-en Trilema ☝︎
mircea_popescu: myeah. i spent an unpleasant coupla hours earlier at this also
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: quite frustrating, i know there ~was~ this thread. but no dice re finding when, where.
deedbot: http://trilema.com/2018/technology-and-governance/ << Trilema - Technology and Governance
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do you remember this btw ? exact sister argument to the dioxin-less tomato crate, but with "weigh EXACTLY, fucker" instead.
mircea_popescu: then we wonder why the kids are "transgender". but as their life conditions become more like these offered by sea anemone (ie, a very sparse stone cubicle in a very hostile ocean), the clows will naturally be more like clownfish.
a111: Logged on 2013-09-30 07:12 mircea_popescu: second largest. The rest of the group is made up of progressively smaller non-breeders, which have no functioning gonads. If the female dies, the male gains weight and becomes the female for that group. The largest non-breeding fish then sexually matures and becomes the male of the group.
a111: Logged on 2013-09-30 07:12 mircea_popescu: Protandrous hermaphrodites refer to organisms that are born male and at some point in their lifespan change sex to female. Protandrous animals include clownfish. Clownfish have a very structured society. In the Amphiprion percula species, there are zero to four individuals excluded from breeding and a breeding pair living in a sea anemone. Dominance is based on size, the female being the largest and the male being the
mircea_popescu: soo i'm trying to dig up an ancient discussion (in which i proposed to alf he weighs something PRECISELY). i can't find it, of course, but meanwhile http://btcbase.org/log/2013-09-30#336297 http://btcbase.org/log/2013-09-30#336298 ☝︎☝︎
jurov: oops i tried to decrypt oG7AA instead of MOuRX, nevermind
lobbes: re: dom, I've been wondering if it would be worth it to leverage this to build the trees. alternative I guess would be to parse the downloaded files from archive.is and build based on that
lobbes: this is making more and more sense, ty.
mircea_popescu: but the implications are far-reaching (for one example : sinonymy rings can be declared, whereby a set of images are declared equivalent to trilema's rss.svg, so i can simply see that in there instead of w/e insanity the author picked)\
mircea_popescu: which is the original problem you started with.
mircea_popescu: so in this sense, keeping the merkle trees of sites is the ultimate de-duping
mircea_popescu: nobody can possibly force you to save image sluts-in-water-12.jpg EVERY TIME some page links it. yes ?
mircea_popescu: lobbes webpages are just idiotic programs. you familiar with how the dom works ? it's just a tree structure, more grossly of resources ("img src=" ; script = " etc) and more finely of tagged elements (<b> <div> etc).
a111: Logged on 2018-02-26 03:27 mircea_popescu: lobbes you understand what the AST is for a [web]page [of code] ?
lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-26#1786246 << ahh okay, I misunderstood (glad I asked). So each archived webpage will have its own abstract syntax tree of the code. Now I'm starting to see the utility in deduping (e.g. can ignore 'meaningless' changes between otherwise identical webpages (such as an extra whitespace, etc)) ☝︎
ave1: I will finish blog post this week
ave1: Yes, that one is almost done, hard part is making a blog item, will do that first
mircea_popescu: hey, keep with the zero overhead ada compiles
ave1: So request is to create a rss-reader bot, that can subscribe / unsubscribe on request from L1 only?
ave1: Also, as it happens on some bot code in ADA, but this is slow going
lobbesbot: ave1: Sent 1 week, 3 days, 5 hours, and 53 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> so i finally tested, exhaustively, and turns out you were completely correct re the inline pragma, gcc ~sometimes~ ( when it wants... ) inlines when it is not given in the .ads . i'ma fix this in ch12, this find deserves own chapter, with re-done timings for errything
mircea_popescu: lobbes you understand what the AST is for a [web]page [of code] ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: lobbes you understand what the AST is for a [webpage
lobbes: and if 4) is correct, then should that be further broken down into a webpage hierarchy? Because if so, we may be limited using archive.is as a middle-man as the zips it spits out do not have the file structure intact; always 'flat' (e.g. this archived orlol: http://lobbesblog.com/archive/102.zip)
lobbes: I am guessing it will be something like: 1) root 2) nodes for 'distinct url', each who has child nodes representing 3) historical instances of that 'distinct url', each who has child notes representing 4) the collection of files that make up that webpage
lobbes: so, here's what I understand thus far re: my goal (plox to correct me): essentially construct a 'tree' of the set of all webpages archived. the 'root' will be the hash of all branches. where I'm still fuzzy is how the remaining branhces/nodes are to be structured (though perhaps this may become clear to me upon further study)
lobbes: mircea_popescu: while I'm still working through my self-directed remedial mathematics studies to understand merkle-trees at a functional level, what I have learned so far got me thinking:
lobbes: neato trinque. very useful
trinque: douchebag: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-26#1777292 << what came of this? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: freenode is about as sparse as a camho's brain, no need to get clever.
mircea_popescu: of course. that's why i say, why not own the central word.
trinque: ah other than it being in that language you keep in your torture room, nothin!
trinque: under the hood, the wallet's called "mensarius"
mircea_popescu: well for one thing one can't /ignore the rss cuz of deedbot. it's a little much.
trinque: upstack a bit, I can see the argument for separating functionality into meaningful (nick)names
mircea_popescu: jesus christ look at that, plenty of list
mircea_popescu: joecool ? you doing anything these days ?
a111: Logged on 2018-02-18 02:41 TomServo: Wish I could help with any current woes, if that's possible lemme know.
mircea_popescu: well, i was more probing if you actually want to implement the whole rss thing yourself or pass it along to some noob.
trinque: kinda overcomplicates my way of handling IRC to separate into 3 connections to IRC.
mircea_popescu: conceivably 2 should be a separate bot also ; but a) as long as tyou're maintaining both and b) they really need very much the same level of security and assurance, it doesn't seem worth the hassle.
mircea_popescu: and 3 really should be a separate bot i think.
mircea_popescu: 2 already works in pm, so there's no absolute reason shouldn't work in any other channel, if you're willing to put the work into that.
mircea_popescu: now as to 1, i don't think it should be out of chan, on one hand because "secret" deeds plainly don't make sense ; on the other because the voice thing is ~probably~ premature in channel that is both new and customer facing. but in principle certainly could in the future have local l1 with voice model for diff channel, i think.
mircea_popescu: so there's three classes of things : 1. deedbot "proper" let's say, doing !!deed + the wot + the whole !!up system ; 2. deedbot payments ; 3. deedbot fluff, doing things like rss.
trinque: they then in turn can publish responses that exit the thing connected to IRC
trinque: there's a publisher/subscriber model in use, services being subscribers which are notified of new messages they might be interested in
trinque: it already does not do this.
mircea_popescu: otherwise you know, if the process running on the box where you do payments ALSO curls http://random.website/rss every 5 minutes... not so great.
mircea_popescu: ah. so then it's a name-only thing, might as well have a rss bot name on the rss bot item
mircea_popescu: running on the same box ?
trinque: I don't understand the question.
mircea_popescu: how can it not be, it has to read random websites.
trinque: anyhow, this is definitely not some piece of gnarl.
ben_vulpes: yeah, tis what i thought as well
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes all those pay withdraw etc work in pm afaik.
mircea_popescu: im not sure i want to have you maintain rss-shenanigans as part of deedbot proper, they're widely disjunct seriousness.
trinque: the whole thing is modular.
ben_vulpes: having wallet commands would be handy, unless mircea_popescu wants to see pizarro invoices/payments in #trilema
a111: Logged on 2018-02-19 14:56 mircea_popescu: trinque should prolly make the public blog rss thing a l1 blackballable item. ie anyone deedbot trusts can ask (in channel) for any item to be discontinued -- and it is.
mircea_popescu: i suppose if you actually make the http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-19#1784956 item then that'd prolly want its own #pizarro list ; but also by now it's such a complex piece of gnarl might even want to separate a rss-bot out of deedbot ☝︎
mircea_popescu: trinque what functions would work out of chan though ? seems the ones that don't work in pm (!!deed say) shouldn't ; and the ones that work in pm... welll...
trinque: there'll be some fee involved for those, would like to hear what interested users are willing to pay.
trinque: don't know if that's interesting to pizarro, but it's coming.
trinque: next item on the list for the wallet is subscription processing.
ben_vulpes: no need for voice over there yet, but sure no rush
ben_vulpes: sweet trinque does that mean i can get deedbot in #pizarro then?
trinque: spent a good amount of time today getting the logbot-command class working with ben_vulpes' multiple channel support
trinque: alrighty, got some timestamps to make more human, but there it is.
trinque: huh, got some wires crossed then. bbl
mod6: nice trinque ; so all movements per wot account 'eh?
trinque: no, it's the wallet ledger for you
mircea_popescu: i expect it's the story of !!balance
mod6: heh, does !!ledger encode the whole block chain for a guy to get?
mircea_popescu: a, that's good.
trinque: all all the commands are limited to pm, one sec
