mircea_popescu: i dun see it in a design perspective ; heck, i actually doin't even see
the problem with php. (by
the
time you're protesting a
text preprocessor being used as a systems language your problem is not properly speaking with
the
tool).
mircea_popescu: but consider if you will
the problem of dynamic content. every one (of what, 10k ?) pages on
trilema changes at least once a day (header), and so on. what now ?
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:49 asciilifeform: phf: imho 'what, if anything changed' is a q
that oughta be answered by a mechanism
that can do it, when (as often is) wanted for
the ~entire site~ compactly
mircea_popescu: ok, you have 3 a records now, empty
to
that and a ns1 ns2 as quoted.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 20:22 mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo pardon my
thickness, where do you want qntra ns pointed again ? ideally in
the format ns1= ns2=
mircea_popescu: in other sadnesses, why
the fuck do
the spanish oversalt
the anchovies paste.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:40 phf: i suspect local orcs have alternative paths for procurement, was sop in russia in
the 90s. you could go
to "official dealer"
type place and pay 10x, or you would haggle for price at Gorbushka, bazar style
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:41 asciilifeform: phf: i strongly suspect
that nobody but gringo rubes ever order from
these Official catalogues, or pay ANY vat, EVER
mircea_popescu: and, continuing elitebook
thread, now
that alf fixed it for me it's actually worth
the money.
mircea_popescu: phf problem with
that item is
that it always has counterstrike videocards rarely server rack mobos.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-31 13:56 mp_en_viaje: in other "thanks goodness computer means programmable machine", i have here
this hp elitebook. it has
the backlight permanently welded
to "retina cancer".
the "function" key bs works for everything else EXCEPT setting
the brightness, fn-f9 does 0.

phf: mircea_popescu: i
thikn
that's what we're going
to do, but i need
to confirm my schedule. i'm still at
the office, so i'll confirm in
the morning
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah. let's make a list
this weekend so we can action monday.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform certainly. kinda why i want
this as a collective effort.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:36 asciilifeform: for comparison, 24core opteron with 256G ram , with 4 ssd disks ( 1TB
total , 750 after raid ) , and with
the raid card, costs me still < 1700.
phf: asciilifeform: well, it also doesn't have cgi/fastcgi so post would be somewhat pointless. i'm actually not sure what
the strategy for post would be when
there's no programmatic way
to control it
mircea_popescu: But $495 for a $300 in
the US ubiquity Edgerouter Pro isn't
too bad <<< i.... beg your pardon ?!

trinque
tries
to remember if chunked
transfer encoding is both ways with
http, or only a response
thing
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: demise of unix os is a
thing
to rattle swords pon bucklers 'bout
mircea_popescu: shellout is always inferior solution, you understand
this, yes ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what's your blog do when you upload pics, shellout
to scp ?
mircea_popescu: basically, people had a scheme,
then started stuffing data in it (get was born)
then stuffed so much discovered it really should go INSIDE
the envelope not on it, so post was born
mircea_popescu: put uploads a file, post makes a get with
the params in a different encoding
mircea_popescu: and
the rurals really dun give a shit some dumb broad hoping
to study criminology in maryland
thinks
mircea_popescu: mod6 some fucking sense would help. but
the
truth is
toucan is eaten here
traditionally
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 22:30 asciilifeform: fwiw i'm still quite convinced
that errything other
than GET and PUT is ~= prb orphanage.
mod6: Sorry, got pulled off for a momemnt, just reading
this
thing. I dunno if
they need laws for
that kinda
thing, just kinda not what is supposed
to happen
though.
mod6: They shot
the
thing with a fuckin bb gun, and it died extra slow.
That kinda pisses me off.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but
the
tightening point may be
the very merkle
tree in question, which could, for instance, be directly
the addressing scheme
mircea_popescu: and it is a fact
that a server's needs
towards
the disk are specific, specifiable, and very visibly different from "general purpose"
mircea_popescu: the other perhaps important point is
that extant
http servers have a very loose and distant relation
to fs.
mircea_popescu: but yes, no argument
that "modified" q being handled by
timedate is beyond idiotic and has no future.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ah, we're actually saying
the exact same
thing, i misunderstood what manifest you had in mind.
mircea_popescu: i don't care
to hear "item was put here on incatime so and so" ; just let me know what its hash is.

trinque: "do I already have
the item at $path" and "how big is
the item at $path" are interesting questions without
the server beginning
to
transmit
the item itself.
mircea_popescu: for
the same reason "we cut gcc into more files, it is less big now" makes no sense.
a111: Logged on 2018-02-02 16:07 asciilifeform:
then it oughta be in sections, and
the sections in small manifest. merkle-style.
