the lawyer say?

ty, and another question, where was
the code for
that com1
to display
thing
that you had?
gabriel_laddel: Finally figured out how
to score meth
tho.
Tis
the bomb diggity & works exactly as I noted here in
the logs prior
to finding it.
gabriel_laddel: After
that call + several others failing
to pick up, I gave up on
the whole
thing. If you lived out here, you'd not expect sanity from
the court system, or any established entity
tbh
mircea_popescu: a really ? finally moved
to limit
the
tort nonsense via employment weird
trick ?

mircea_popescu: "Traditional gateware design with Verilog and VHDL is well known
to be
tedious and inefficient. M-Labs have developed Migen, a Python-based HDL and
toolbox
that addresses many of
their issues and makes gateware design more productive. Built on Migen, MiSoC provides a high performance, flexible and lightweight solution
to build system-on-chips for various applications."
mircea_popescu: one day i'll understand how
this sense-nonsense alloying works.
☟︎ phf: so right now we have exactly 2048 days of log (though
that number makes me suspect maybe my day counter is broken somehow)
mircea_popescu: hm,
this isn't very workable in fact, your log page is not fixed width is it. just flows.
mircea_popescu: you'll basically get a smoother curve
than what you have now
mircea_popescu: you just decide on a pixel count based on your design, and
then you split
the 24 * 3600 day into
that many units
phf: hmm, actually i don't
think per minute is any indicator of anything.
phf: right now it's
tracking proportional message count per hour, so perhaps message count per minute, but
then it's a 1440 pixels width
mircea_popescu: but, honestly, you might ALSO make
that full width and use
the same approach for it.
mircea_popescu: can keep all of
these in a world-accessible directory which is purged say weekly. or whatever, "once a week of all items older
than a week" like
the pastes.
mircea_popescu: you decide on an image
to be displayed on search page, specifically. "i want it 1024 x 168 pixels". you separately produce a png, as wide as day count, and as
tall as daycount * 168 / 1024 rounded. you fill
that png with
the proper lines, proportionally (so highest count day gets full line, all other days get proportional line).
then you scale it down
to 1024 x 168. you publish
this scaled down item on
the search page, and yo
phf: hmm, i'm not groking
the whole compressed version
thing
mircea_popescu: compressed version always page width, allowing
thus
to produce a proper as-wide-as-days-to-date item.
phf: that's what i'm
thinking :)
mircea_popescu: phf you know what you could do, add it
to search pages. would
that be a lot of cpu ?
to spit out a png maybe 2k x 200
tall, and link it from a compressed version on
the search page.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think
the functionality as such is particularly useful, i prefer
the search. however
the perspective actually is, filters would prolly empower
the searching mind.
mircea_popescu: make a call like histograph?derpage, puts out a png with
the histograph for
that item
phf: because #; in question is a javascript and for a specific day. since we use links for xref, i'm not sure what
the semantic value of linking is going
to be in
that case. also mandatory javascript
phf: that would be a useful feature,
that's almost like a part of search functionality
mircea_popescu: put one pixel line per day, from
top
to bottom, counting
the occurences of $filter.
mircea_popescu: in fact, a per-day filtered-histogram could conceivably be very fucking useful hunting down large
topics.
phf: err, wait
that actually made no sense..
phf: i like some features
that he has, live updates, also
the convention of <date>#<id>;<filter>
phf: asciilifeform:
ty, and another question, where was
the code for
that com1
to display
thing
that you had?
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Still
that's every address
that starts with 3, so likely some no segwit
turds in
there
whaack: aha no i was kinda surprised by how much it was in 1 block
tbh
whaack: doesn't mean much,
that was just
the recent block. also not necessarily segwit
mircea_popescu: !!rate whaack 2 computed
total segwit impact on bitcoin ecosystem.
turned out
to be less
than 1 parts per
thousand.
whaack: I will work on creating an index of all of
these non standard outputs of
the form (txn-hash:output-index --> satoshis) sum up all
the satoshis sent into
the abyss from all past blocks, and
then subtract spent coins in future blocks
to get a value of how many coins are in
the abyss at block n
mircea_popescu: 100% is made in china and
the chinese don't respect any specs other
than some stuff written on an old napkin in
the head office.
phf: asciilifeform: how where do you source your cat5e? i've been using a leftover roll from my contracting days, but it finally ran out. went on amazon, not only are prices somewhat suspect (300m for $40?), but comments say
that
they cable doesn't actually conform
to spec (wrong insulation, wrong conductor, etc.)
phf: i mean, a _misplaced_ parenthesis will result in a valid parse, but
the error is going
to be something along
the lines of "error while parsing arguments
to special form" or "argument x is not a number" or "function call with n arguments, but wants exactly m"
phf: misplaced parenthesis is
tricky
to debug from
the error messages, in fact i usually can't. i can usually intuit
that
the error is probably a result of misplaced parent, but
then i still have
to go an
track it down
a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 21:17 phf: i've seen properly indented code before,
that never
the less lost or misplaced parenthesis here or
there. naggum actually had a rant somewhere how most experienced lispers actually discover nesting issues by doing reindent. but if you're a newb, you're going
to lose a parent, but keep
the code shape
the same
mircea_popescu: and show
the proper values, such as demeaning women, bare cunts, etcetera.
mircea_popescu: i don't even care if
they're similar per se, just as long as
they're good.
shinohai: u just want
to look @ similar ones?
shinohai: oh ill bug
the oc artist above intensively
mircea_popescu: ok but intensively plox. "can
try" as in you know, i checked out 1mn pix.
mircea_popescu: (deviantart here used as metasyntactic notation for "whatever shitty forum
these mortidifame gather upon")
mircea_popescu: but anyway -- does anyone want
to go
through all of deviantart until
they find either something like
that or something
that doesn't suck ? for
the purpose of helping
the first
tmsr appointed artist get his appointment ?
mircea_popescu: the idiot author of
the linked piece is
too fucking dumb
to answer emails
to his god damned own contact email as provided by patreon, notwithstanding he evidently is fucking starving. ho
the fuck even
told
these schmucks
they're at liberty
to you know, "make own decisions" such as not pick up phone from god ?
phf: trilema-church i
think has
to be a danielpbarron project
shinohai: i guess i could write about
the #trilema-church project
BingoBoingo: How much do boxes
there run, and you've been blogging?
shinohai: i want
to at least host my blog
there
BingoBoingo: <shinohai> nah
there is
this crazy family
that has a micronation in
the middle of
the ocean. <<
That's awfully close
to airstrip one

☟︎ a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 18:40 ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i don't get why people who want code highlit don't open
the code in a proper editor
phf: ok, i have some idea why
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-23#1742652 because i've done it in
the past. when you're debugging issues for complete newbs, you basically instinctually looking for
two
things, imbalanced parenthesis and misuse of intrinsics. yeah you could copy paste
that stuff
to your emacs buffer, but if what you're doing is essentially social service work, you get burned out on doing deep help pretty fast, hence you want
to keep it in
the p
☝︎ shinohai: im going
to be
tmsr ambassador
to sealand! xD
diana_coman: oh,
the Floating Bear sort of
thing, lol; close
to "atop a server"
shinohai: nah
there is
this crazy family
that has a micronation in
the middle of
the ocean.
diana_coman had
this flash image of shinohai paddling in
the North Sea atop a server
shinohai: I'm
thinking about buying a server in
the North Sea
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo moar eastern style, deviled eggs, apple pie,
that sorta
thing. bbq lamb...
whaack: diana_conman: cool, when I get back
to it I'll
try switching out my gnat/gcc first
☟︎ diana_coman: fwiw I remember at some point I ran into weird issues with gnat
that were apparently due
to mismatched gcc version
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> speaking of which : one girl has been in
the kitchen since daybreak (bout 8 hours ago) cooking non stop. << How's your stuffing coming along?
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> hey BingoBoingo wtf is a 'testosterona' ? boiled goat balls, straight from 1950s quackeries ? << direct
translation of
testosterone. Probably what's being marketed is a depot formulation of
testosterone attached
to a long chain esther
mircea_popescu: 1/64th of
the recommended dosage is just about enough
to be exaggerate for normal human!
mircea_popescu: "basically i multiply
the portions by 8 and divide
the sugar also by 8"
mircea_popescu: she's
tallied up all
the sugar we saved, comes
to almost a quarter
ton!
mircea_popescu: speaking of which : one girl has been in

mircea_popescu: anwyay : such is
true luxury in life,
to be able
to disinterestedly walk into #lisp, spend an hour evaling and shrug.
