mp_en_viaje: nevertheless, as to the other score : tmsr isp is not some exercise in little boy fantasy wank
mp_en_viaje: woman is to go around naked, not dressed. this because the positive she gets from the advertising of her sexual characteristics sums an epsilon over as large a crowd is exposed (this is a pantsuit rendition ; the correct statement is that her chances to score mp depend on exposure)
asciilifeform: diana_coman: the observation re 'take as much speed as you actually need, but not more, if costs ugliness' is correct and is in fact the basis for ffa
diana_coman: funnily enough the rotates are anyway mainly "shortcuts" for 2 (iirc) transformation operations but otherwise not directly in keccak's defs as such
asciilifeform: fwiw one can also define these like a barbarian, as x * 2 and x / 2 ; and gcc (last i saw) will Do The Right Thing and transform to a shift
asciilifeform: in re shifts/rotates ( as seen in http://btcbase.org/patches/ffa_ch1_genesis/tree/ffa/libffa/w_shifts.ads ) one nitpick : Shift_Left, etc. are not per se gnat-specific; they are in the standard. but for some perverse reason their ~invocation~ is implementation-specific, and requires this gnaticism.
diana_coman: tbh I would recommend it as a better "starter" approach anyway
mod6: <+BingoBoingo> Attention Lords And Ladies of The Republic: You may add 161.0.121.253 to your hosts file as Qntra.net << congrats BingoBoingo!
BingoBoingo: Attention Lords And Ladies of The Republic: You may add 161.0.121.253 to your hosts file as Qntra.net
mp_en_viaje: had great past. was as cool as cuba.
asciilifeform: same thing as the enablers of BingoBoingo's 'fupas'
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: right, ~same as nyc
asciilifeform: ( notably this proved impossible , without complete manual control over ~everything~, under openbsd. as per old thread. )
asciilifeform: phf: thus far sounds about as much fun as a winblowz vista box
phf: well, i like to take potshots at shitty systems as much as the next lord, but the publicized dev/random issue was there briefly and has officially been patched. i've not attempted to dive into dev/random though
asciilifeform: or, for instance, take the rathead-microshit Official answer to the http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-23#1631805 problem : 'device trees' ( https://lwn.net/Articles/560523 and elsewhere. ) essentially same thing as the traditional microshit 'control panel' , but... biosized ☝︎
asciilifeform: re acpi as instrument of microshitization, observe how ( e.g. https://lwn.net/Articles/574439 ) it is being put in arm boxes, where 0 intel legacycrapola, and spearheaded by... redhat ( the designated microshit for 'linux' )
mp_en_viaje: ave1, would you consider gutting that entire class as a patch ? i have nfi why a "kses" bs is even needed. seems a case of giraffe's jugular.
a111: Logged on 2015-05-26 23:42 mats: fun fact: there is a particular ACPI table in that you can put anywhere in a low range of memory during boot, and Windows will take the payload data, drop it as an EXE, and run it as SYSTEM.
asciilifeform: whole arch as it exists today -- is a microshit production.
mp_en_viaje: it could just as well be 64 bit .
asciilifeform: cuz intel dropped as a child in 1978
mp_en_viaje: wait, is the "protected" mode how you do the useful things such as you know, rowhammer et all ?
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> the 90s were a lot better for partying, i'll tell you that. it's not clear to me that out of the entire world as it stands you can produce enough night life for a middling 90s town. << I believe. During the night walks there will be a lot of empty street and 1 bar where apparently the party is at, most locals crowded outside asking each other who has the weed hookup while the girlies grind in crowded basement dance trap.
mp_en_viaje: the cause of all the world's problems is strictly average intelligence dorks going about things "as per their best guess".
mp_en_viaje: the 90s were a lot better for partying, i'll tell you that. it's not clear to me that out of the entire world as it stands you can produce enough night life for a middling 90s town.
mp_en_viaje: as far as anyone knows, the only bdsm thing in this 8 mn strong city is an item calling itself "club sweet perversions" and limiting self to a facebook page, because why the fuck not, right. if you call their number (319 2137590) some dorky woman tells you it's on caracas and 62nd. except when you actually get there and there's no such thing (just a buncha three story love hotels with overexcited porters trying to get you to park in!!!). then she tur
asciilifeform: it is not imho wholly coincidental that microshit, as early as '80s, proclaimed a fatwa against bigendianism and promised eternal support for littleendian cpu strictly.
asciilifeform: but i see it as really argument against pipelines, not against flags...
mp_en_viaje: it is just about as possible!
phf: given the general going ons i wouldn't mind "basic instinct of manhood" as a kind of working baseline, to improve upon later
mp_en_viaje: phf, there is such a thing as a snatcher, and such a thing as a pickpocket. though... social behaviours serve social purposes. "it's dangerous!!!" for instance works very well for selection. anecdote : ro consul introduced pretty girl, intern at embassy. over sushi she confessed her unimpressment in local boys, "i was walking down candeleria and these dorks were lke o no, it's gotten dark, it's dangerous and soon enough made themselves scarce. wel...
mp_en_viaje: i fully expect that aspiring middle class adolescents do this as a courtship thing, dood asks girl he fancies to "hold on to his wallet" in her purse or something.
mp_en_viaje: also, you know, very matriarchal structure, somehow. anecdote : bought some i dun recall what from respectable (and very competent, and eager to do well) middle aged woman in shop. as we left she called girl back, all worried like,
mp_en_viaje: i can see who'd go for a kidnap as an activity.
asciilifeform has deeply nfi, it may as well all be on alpha centauri, from his perch
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, recently they had some somer odf disarmament deal, saw person today aggitating for farc to be included as voting bloc in their electroal process...
mp_en_viaje: dc is a shithole. but... i dunno, im unconvinced by the theory "kids today" = ded. the mass is about as motile as a fish in vinegar, yes. but .. they always were.
asciilifeform in 25+yr on east usa has yet to see 'reflective nissan' or anything self-labeled or otherwise as 'arab prince'
mp_en_viaje: ben_vulpes, yeah, the saudi genius dood's plan worked as wel las if nuland made it.
mp_en_viaje: which, of course, as all socialist idiocy, resulted in everyone buying >2 cars.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-03 16:05 asciilifeform: but in very unrelated lulz, https://archive.is/bON1p >> 'It’s a bit absurd that a modern gaming machine running at 4,000x the speed of an apple 2, with a CPU that has 500,000x as many transistors (with a GPU that has 2,000,000x as many transistors) can maybe manage the same latency as an apple 2 in very carefully coded applications if we have a monitor with nearly 3x the refresh rate.'
mp_en_viaje: (the transsexual army is not a rhetorical flourish. think : what is a transsexual ? one a) unoccupied enough to question something as fundamental as his sex and also b) dumb enough to get the wrong answer. meanwhile what is army built of ? a) people who obey orders. so...)
asciilifeform: http server ? fwiw adacore distributes one. ( i dun like it, for same reason as apache -- it's a megatonne of gnarl . but, it does in fact work, and benefits from the language guarantees etc )
mod6: heh, for a moment i read 'pursuits' as 'pantsuits'
BingoBoingo: Carrying shit over there in the morning tomorrow. Last visit it was looking good. Awaiting the necessary information to get the routing configured as best as I can before plugin time.
phf: the content of these articles is as much of a mystery to me as they are to the log reader. maybe it's zavalishin writing obituary for bardin, but i doubt it.
asciilifeform: so for so long as this situation continues to be observed anywhere -- we have a bug.
asciilifeform: i suspect that his approach is in fat The Right Thing. making connect-time 'special' is every bit as dumb as making boot time special.
asciilifeform: as it is, if you come back, no one knows who is speaking, 'shakespeare -- or another man by the same name', for instance.
asciilifeform: and the folx who know, and do not care, are http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-10#1768490 , they are as culpable as the orig author. ☝︎
laplinker: xdp3 is hard to find, same i guess as the sage probve
asciilifeform: iirc there's a few in e.g. africa disguised as 'uh, nuffin at all here, move along'
ave1: Will work on wording! It was meant as "Take very good care to check out this one"
ben_vulpes misread as xemen
asciilifeform: i gotta admit, i picture them as units, like e.g. rems
shinohai: Sorry for spam, doing housecleaning as well.
mircea_popescu: are you actually saying "well mp, ~maybe~ bits exist outside of anyone looking at them, but sure as fuck they do not exist outside of bytes, as currently the situation stands" ?
phf: i find all arguments pro or cons unconvincing, as encoded by elders i nthe very name, which is a reference to gulliver's travels
a111: Logged on 2018-01-28 15:24 mircea_popescu: in other news, to share with the group for comment : the idea is that even if we do mandate smallendian, it would still be proper to have a bitwise implementation, even were it slow, as a proper model of sorts. so it'd be both of these.
mircea_popescu: i recall it as a conversation between us, you were saying something and that was my retort.

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> what's wrong with fedexing it! << Box that enters the country via FEDEX is going to certainly get hit with customs and the 22% IVA. Box that comes in suitcase is almost certainly going to get waved through as a personal effect. It's a math problem of whether to pay an import duty or plane ticket.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in other chicks can code moments, "I earned my degree and license in cosmetology and had a horrible career as a hair dresser that I ended in 2015 due to social anxiety. I still love hair theory, and I even really enjoy working on people with whom I share a close relationship, but now I'm in pursuit of a new path."
trinque: stated as it is, I get it
trinque: BingoBoingo: pls to send shipping address my way as well
mircea_popescu: $900 writeoff for "expert" that didn;t as much as write on her tits, now $3k write-off for "month of pulling dick atop empty rack", the joys of business over here.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually had 1 of these as homework in american school, 3rdgrade << yah, same.
asciilifeform: they used to migrate as far north as here. ( perhaps still do ? somewhere )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually had 1 of these as homework in american school, 3rdgrade
asciilifeform: ( the one with the O(1) indexer and the 'nursery' last-few-hundred-blox holder , as discussed last yr )
asciilifeform: mod6: do not hurry to sign. intention is, to slowly eat it, and sign when it begins to seem as if 'wrote yourself'

(after filtering out non-pingbackabble sites, I sent all pingbacks manually, just to look at responses)
asciilifeform: dulap-II had a serious striped-raid ; still took 5x as long to verify same block as fist-sized, raidless ssd zoolag.

mod6: as if
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-26#1777321 << observe that in all such cases under modern usg, the corpse 'hangs' on the designated gallows bird; and never on the gestapo ( who can machine-gun or even demolish, as in florida 2y ago, entire houses , with clear conscience ) ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-01-26 22:16 phf: "... Only joint action by the G20 countries, as proposed by France and Germany, could be enough to become a game changer. ..."
a111: Logged on 2018-01-25 01:01 mircea_popescu: v is esentially found today as an enchanted castle surrounded by 5000 rakes upon which the prince is welcome to step, and once he stepped he can come to us and by the shape in his forehead we can describe the rake he stepped on.
phf: "... Only joint action by the G20 countries, as proposed by France and Germany, could be enough to become a game changer. ..." ☟︎
asciilifeform: shinohai, trinque : as i understand, d00d is a kid, and really oughta be beaten with wooden stick, and only after this fails, with spiked iron stick.
lobbes: douchebag, -as you read more- the "how can I best use my skillset" will become obvious to you
lobbes: douchebag: while you are intelligent, and may have succeeded in sending mp to meditation room, realize that continued existence in this forum is predicated on you doing something useful for the Republic. Understanding -what- is useful will require (as trinque has been patiently explaining) "moar ready, less talky".
douchebag: "V. You could learn how to program correctly, such as for instance by writing your own Vvi implementation, or by standing up an irc botvii, or by following the excellent manuals produced by the Lordshipviii. Bear in mind that it is deemed unethical within the Republic to write code if you haven't actually learned how to write it first, and that orcs' claims to have taught you something often turn out
douchebag: Well, I'm not the best programmer out there however I always make damn sure the code I do write is secure as it can be
phf: mircea_popescu: i'm perhaps failing to find a point at which your analogy connects with the situation. i read it as "don't know on things that seem trivial"
a111: Logged on 2018-01-26 16:15 mircea_popescu: in fairness, kid's got me meditating about the nature of things ever since last night. see, the trouble is : in his syustem, he has actually found a vulnerability, as a factual matter. in my system this is entirely meaningless. why the difference ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Starting to get more attention for them again as my confidence recovers from the past weekend
mircea_popescu: you're right, it's not quite as good.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: or that. ( the difficulty with privkeys-as-prizes is to show that they are in in fact inside the prizebox prior to play )
mircea_popescu: it's very solvable as stated, but not mechanically. "1. figure out v ; 2. press pehbot ; 3. say intelligent things about it." "intelligent according to whom ?" "intelligent according to me" "how am i supposed to cheat this ?!" "you aren't."
asciilifeform: i dun think that it is solvable as-stated.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: only in so much as the mosquitoes in my backyard have to do with your skin
mircea_popescu: in vaguely related lulz : there existed a cult which had the girls prostitute themselves for membership. (apparently it was tried with boys too, but it didn't pay.) eventually they just listed them as proper whores with "escort agencies". apparently a total of >quarter million men were made to feel religious however briefly during a decade.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-26 05:06 mod6: and it goes back to the same thing as with diana_coman. having two '++' at the front of the line. the way the vdiff is written, when it passes the diffed file off to awk to pattern match the ---|+++ it adds that '+' in the front, then it matches, causing it to call sha512sum.. which is where the false comes from. I think.
asciilifeform: and the 'bad spec' thing is part of multilayered shit sandwich, the general principle is that complexicrud accretes; the overflows, etc. follow naturally ( with helping hand from kochs, dreppers, et al as necessary )
mircea_popescu: this is EXACTLY how it goes, and perhaps why there has not yet existed such a thing as a fully implemented specification or a fully specified implementation in empire lands.
mircea_popescu: this triad : links, pingbacks, selection reference make up a whole NEW hypertext. just as far from the old as that was from text.
mircea_popescu: i honestly believe it's as big as the concept of link.
asciilifeform: it isn't , as it happens, particularly difficult to neuter js in pasteolade. but that's separate , imho, matter.
