mod6: <+ben_vulpes> mod6: while you're in
there can you get your vtron
to cleanup its
tmp gnupg directory when it catches a ctrl-c? << if you CTRL+C
the
thing, it really can't get rid of it. you're expected
to clean
this up on your own so
the vtron doesn't remove something it wasn't suppoesd
to.
ben_vulpes: it does,
this is my first encounter with a stack machine
tho so
thinking is proceeding slowly
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: still working on my solution
to ch4
lobbes: In other incidental preguntas: mircea_popescu, can you recommend good "introductory" reading on
the subject of
thought classification? It seems like
the obvious fundamental
to improving my cognitive processes
☟︎ ben_vulpes: right, i shelled out
to mktmpdir in mine
ben_vulpes: it is a minor
thing
that i occasionally
trip over
ben_vulpes: mod6: while you're in
there can you get your vtron
to cleanup its
tmp gnupg directory when it catches a ctrl-c?
mod6: that's later
tho. first, just gotta get
this fixed,
then we can move on
to greater
things.
mod6: so goal is
to fix
this problem.
then carry on and document all
the rules
the
thing has in place.
this way, others can
try
to build in
those rules we've discussed in here
to
their vtrons without having
to fish
them all out of 2 years of logs.
mod6: no prob.
thanks asciilifeform
shinohai: I seem
to be patched in and basic functions working, so sing out when ready
to
test mod6 o7
mod6: the 'print_press_path' subroutine is, for
the
time, for debugging only.
mod6: wanna see
the experimental patch i'm workin on?
mod6: There are better error messages, or averting a silent fail
that will also help here. I haven't gotten
that far on
that part yet.
mod6: yeah, i actually did add a 'check_required' routine
that is semi-related
to
this. for instance, when
that error happened, it was because some guy didn't have `sha512sum'. so
the check_required subroutine will now run first, and check
to ensure
that a list of system biniaries are available before anything happens. and if not, exits.
mod6: I went
through each one, looks
to be doing
the sane
thing. I'm probably going
to write it up in a little post
that can be looked at, as opposed
to
trying
to explain all of
that in 3 lines of irc.
☟︎☟︎ mod6: Since now
the press path is calculated slightly different now
than blindly shoveling in
the flow,
those
tests needed some adjustments on
their assertions of expected output.
mod6: not bad! i implemented
the pill
to calculate
the press path from a given leaf. seems
to be working pretty well. i ran all my automated
tests, passed 50/54 without incident. Four of
the
tests are pretty complex
test cases where we basically yank one of
the vpatches out of
the middle of a vtree,
then
test
to ensure
that we avoid
that where required.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-21 14:02 asciilifeform: funny how
they put
the 'cloud storage' in
the bail denial affidavit, but have not yet even bothered
to parallelconstruct some reason ~other
than it~ for how
the d00d could have been caught.
BingoBoingo: Dammit, I'm not going
to be able
to mispell now for creative effect anymore am I
BingoBoingo: Except no "nao" doesn't read as
the same
thing it did pre Uruguay
BingoBoingo: And
the registrations are starting
to
trickle in. I R SRS BSNS NAO!
shinohai: "GPS provides several levels of customization, from simple preference dialogs
to powerful scripting capability
through
the Python language" <<< why?
diana_coman: yes, so you need emacs because slime;
that sounds like a lot of snails already,lol
diana_coman: note
though
that we were
talking emacs, not slime; enfin
diana_coman: are you saying
that 50x improvement is really due
totally
to emacs being
to any other editor what pen is over feather? because otherwise Nx longer is exactly "nothing else" when N is large enough
diana_coman: no, in
the sense of "80 cols or NOTHING ELSE"; same
thing
there: can work with emacs or NOTHING ELSE
diana_coman: as long as it doesn't basically cripple me
to everything else, I can use it, sure
diana_coman: that might be my brand of weird only
though
diana_coman: as a side note,
that's precisely why I did *not* adopt emacs in
the end despite liking it quite a lot when met it at uni: it was VERY useful indeed but
the sort of useful
that was
too close
to addictive for my liking essentially
diana_coman: anyways, it's settled, 80cols it will have
to be
diana_coman: I suspect it's more
the investment in
the habit really; printer might be *one form* but it doesn't convince me much in itself
diana_coman: I suppose I'm not much of a
train basically
diana_coman purposefully gets used
to all sorts of different
things, makes it easy
to switch between
them really
diana_coman: ah, should have been precise
there:
they don't make a difference for me at
this stage; I can stick
to 80 just as I can stick
to 76 really
diana_coman: not
that 4 characters make much difference in any case
diana_coman: which is perfectly fine with me for code; it's still grating for comments and I'm not sure how
this will resolve, it sort of pushes comments out of code (to a place where one can read
them as
text not as code-which-they-are-not)
