mp_en_viaje: nobody's about to order anyone to document all the water -- and by this
i mean, asciilifeform ain't gonna send himself on such foolish errands, nor you, nor anyone else. let the water be.
mp_en_viaje: the nightmare was that
i had ordered her to document all the water.
mp_en_viaje: at t5, yet another fellow has the choice of whether to follow F's chain, or R's chain, or the A-Q-G-B-N-
I chain or so following.
mp_en_viaje: At t2, there is a patch upon t0#t0, transforming gns to a1->b1 ; manifest becomes #t1. this is signed by A, Q, G, B, N,
I.
mp_en_viaje: as it stands,
i also do not see a problem with the same one key signing whatever count of ~compatible~ versions of the universe, where the key's to define what compatible actually means, following therefrom that there's exactly jack shit one can systematically do by looking at the totalized pile of keys signatures and possibilities. (the familiar will readily recognize a pattern here).

i understand, the contemplated structure is a linear chain, and 'siblings' could only occur in event of schisms/civil war , rather than as a regular thing
mp_en_viaje: (in particular
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-03#1911102 is at best naive : if you insist that my key does not sign competing chains [which is not even necessarily a bad idea]
i will simply make ~multiple keys~, which will each sign whichver chain
i wish to sign for whatever reason, and which will pass the "omg civil war" safeguard while achieving exactly no satisfaction of the bijection contemplated -- they'll still be my keys, one and all.)
☝︎☟︎ Mocky: Maybe my prior comments were too abrasive / snarky making it difficult to engage, if so that's on me. Or maybe
I just don't understand. Either way there's no point me trying to continue with the content of an argument that no one can engage with.

a111: Logged on 2019-05-03 22:19 asciilifeform: Mocky: iirc mircea_popescu's scheme centers around a return to the good ol' days when ~all~ names could be found on a given machine's /etc/hosts (or equiv.) -- so one ~could~ in principle use a very slow mechanism to sync'em, and it'll still work in practice. ( tho
i also would rather avoid cementing tcpisms into future design of whatever type )
mp_en_viaje: to put in in those terms, the problem ain't so much that
i didn't read what you said ; the problem's rather that nor
i nor anyone else seems to know ~know~ how to read it.
mp_en_viaje: in any case
i'd say just about any single implication you propose doesn't follow. elementarily different people having differing views of a patchset on the basis of their seals works just fine with manifest files as without. and so on.
mp_en_viaje: e this situation therefore
i say "apparent unfamiliarity".
mp_en_viaje: mkay, the breakage here's more than
i know how to readily address.
Mocky: and
i can also expand later on what's with the 'connecting', tcp? and what's with the directories, protocol on top of tcp?
I'm hoping that its figurative and you don't literally want to build gns on tcp and

I don't have time to expand now before
I go, but
i can expand later.

i dunno what you mean. it almost reads like you're talking from a complete unfamiliarity with V altogether. what do you mean even, "press multiple heads AT THE SAME TIME". any v tree permits any v operator the choice of where the fuck to press to. if the tree is 1->2->3 you can choose to press to 1, 2 or 3. this is not "at the same time".
Mocky:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-03#1911019 <<
I stated my assumption, for confirmation, that you can't press to both heads, and you answered with "why not?", and
I followed up with 'what would that even look like?'
I stated in two different ways that
I'm talking about sibling patches with the same parent, not 1->2->3. did you even read what
i wrote?
☝︎ mp_en_viaje: maybe it really is a brothel ;
i doubt it tho, looked like slightly ditzy run of the mill.
mp_en_viaje stopped at "Public House" 4 star hotel earlier walking about. "
i don't think they know what public house means", quoth
i to my girls. "of course we do!" quoth reception desk gal.

i mean, just because
i'm not stuck editing /etc/hosts by hand all the time does it mean anything about that ?
mp_en_viaje: but so far -- as
i remember. the females are brave, the males inconsequential.
BingoBoingo: Aite,
I can see how whaack kept on the German chicks
diana_coman: and the contents of the manifest file itself are obtained from pressing a tree so it's not like you get mismatch tree <-> manifest and a tangle or
I don't see it
diana_coman: and a sig on a patch to my mind can't anyway be in isolation like that, "just this patch here is fine but
I have no idea of what is being patched"
diana_coman:
i.e. manifest is a history with dates but not some prescription re patching
diana_coman: fwiw
I don't get what the issue is there and what does the manifest have to do with anything
mp_en_viaje: whichever way this is turned,
i dun manage to see what the problem is.
mp_en_viaje: indeed, if the set of signatures in your seals dir signs a bunch of different possible trees, the situation becomes ambiguous.
i was saying,
i don't think this is a problem at all (if for no other reason, then because either the user cares or doesn't care. if he does care he can just sign whichever he prefers, then put his own signature in the seals and presto. if he does not care then he doesn't care.)

Mocky: so re your patches example, if patch 2 & 3 both declare patch 1 as parent, and
I have wot keys for all a - f,
I can't press to both heads correct?

I see embrace and extinguish as more appropriate for dns destruction (ala a dnsmasq-esque approach) than isolated bunkers.
I mean,
i could have joined up with republic prime instead, but they already completed work on gns prime, and maybe they passed out ip based links for a while, but eventually pulled up the ladders to their tree forts and now they can't even be found. So who knows if republic prime or double prime even exists.
mp_en_viaje:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-05-03#1910987 >
i haven't used civillian dns for what, two years now.
i dont' care to, either. this usecase is massively more important than "fetlife slut". for one thing, fetlife slut ain't reading anything anyway ; for the other thing, nothing forces you to limit yourself to gns if you don't want to.
☝︎ mp_en_viaje: this produces what looks like a potential problem, in that we'll end up with ambiguous multireferences to same name.
i believe this is no problem at all, but merely a licked tooth, and should be kept as such.
mp_en_viaje: whereas someone who has only b should patch,
i suppose, on both 2 and 3.

I can't just make and sign a patch of my own,
i have to patch on top of the 'consensus' press, otherwise manifest won't match and can't press multiple heads. Am
I wrong about how that works?
diana_coman: Mocky: isn't the "right one" dns client you're talking about simply a bridge?
i.e. sure, have as many bridges as you want, too, what exactly is the problem?
Mocky:
i would prefer, 'that link to mocky.istheshit/proof doesn't work? you must have a shitty dns client, here's the right one...'
Mocky: what's the point of having names if
I have to also be ready with the ip addresses all the damn time?

i ~suppose~ one manner of handling this is the followingf convention : patches to be acquired from $key/gns/ dir, for all keys in the seals ring. so it'd look for "6160E1CAC8A3C52966FD76998A736F0E2FB7B452/gns" which is not a "valid" domain per usg.verisign "rules" however it DOES resolve in our own system. because we can put ips on anything we want.

lobbes_field: mircea_popescu: re: specced in lisp, indeed, with the exception of my python command router / auctionbot, the rest of the ircbot/logbot v-tree is lisp.
I know python ain't long for the world so
I figure it is time
I lose those training wheels
lobbes_field: Bit as a practical start,
I may just sit down and read some of the existing items out there (cl-who) and then eventually freeze/gebesis
lobbes_field:
I.e. If, say, spyked writes a better cl-www-tron
I'd still want to be able to fit the thing in my head. So any work
I do toward 'building my own' will only aid me in that task (hence relatedly,
I suppose, why 'build yer own v-tron' is a commonly recommended exercise).
lobbes_field: To continue my earlier cut-line:
I think in the past
I've been too sensitive regarding avoidance of 'duplicitive efforts', but the mircea_popescu quote of "all time is burned time" has been burning in my head.
lobbes_field: asciilifeform
I did see that in my research. Glad to know you've used in the past with satisfactory results
lobbes_field: On dumbphone atm, heres rest of line "the worst outcome for me personally would be
I learn more cl (
i.e. not a bad thing at all). And we get some republican items made in either case."
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Is suspect the number of Venezolanas vs venezolanos
I've met here may be a function of distance. The ones here got out on their own or got out with family money.

Seems like there are several in L1 who probably are much closer to genesis-ing such a kit (phf, ben_vulpes, spyked, prolly a few others), though as it stands now there are still no vpatches.

I'll get the ball rolling and if any of the mentioned to 'beat-me-to-the-punch' here (and

whaack: yup, all casados. but
i can't say that that was a problem as
i do like casados. it was just an added effort to be with ticas over the germans that
i did not make, and my Spanish paid for it
whaack: but more's the point : and your hedonism actually kept you away from internets for the interval ?! << it certainly reduced it drastically. but
i've been around, reading the logs etc.

whaack: as
I mentioned in the logs a while back
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-06-07#1666967 i wound up moving to Costa Rica for quite a while with the plan to fix my ESLness and get out of the US.

i want kids as in the bioproduct...
i want to RAISE kids...." "wel then wtf are you making new ones for, plenty of already made needing

mircea_popescu: hence the earlier comments. "oh but mp,
i don't want to procreate just like that...
i want a small count of kids from this one specific woman to raise together bla bla bla" is strict nonsense.
mircea_popescu: not that
i'm even against the effort. if memory serves we ended up with lego out of a very similar preoccupation with turning pig's ears into silk purses. so whatever,
