mircea_popescu: the only endpoint for that is where rhel ended up :
a cheaper USG Department of Windows.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> the one thing closed source can never do is good docs. << But then how would they sell support as
a seperate product?
mircea_popescu: trinque yeah. more important for
a powerful foss than gcc.
mircea_popescu: if my father weren't
a total fuckwit, he'd have told me "my son, you'll make
a billion dollars before you'll read
a two page item about you that manages to eschew glaring errors".
mircea_popescu: if anyone still has
a twitter account, maybe link the derp to the above. you never know when athlete face learns something from the internets.
mircea_popescu: i merely do not give enough of
a shit about the cause celebre du jour to neglect technical arguments for its sake.
mircea_popescu: and in any case - it's not some "disain for the poor" that's at work. just because everyone is on
a (mostly hypocritical) fixation on loving the poor does not make my position disdain
mircea_popescu: i just don't happen to be clueless enough to confuse those for "Scalability". considering i am not actually
a technical expert, this reflects very poorly opn the intellectual abilities and assorted scholarship of random derps opining on nasdaq.com
mod6: np. it can wait for
a bit.
mod6: asciilifeform: ever get
a chance to look at those bins?
trinque: seemed to be
a point about superficial mitigations vs fixing the underlying issue
mod6: im not positive (i don't have access to my pf.conf atm) that i've ever used random-id. i think that's for
a very specific problem. but yeah you probably /do/ want scrub all reassemble tcp
trinque has found the openbsd manpages to be in
a class of their own
mircea_popescu: and i suspect all this is autism related and should prolly be
a med insurance deductable, like kinetotherapy.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, anyone amused at how the "mainstream media" took all of five seconds to decide random white dude was "racially motivated" blowing up
a black church, wheras they're still "trying to look for motives" that paki dude shot up the marines ?
shinohai: But today, pickings were slim and I needed
a spare lappy
trinque: I tend to make my way there once
a week or so
shinohai: Looks so trinque, and I hopped on craigslist and bought
a shitty laptop for $100
shinohai: Or
a more high-performing one.
shinohai: outproduce: Make
a better product.
shinohai: Time is the most important asset for testing. I still want to prove that
a small group can outproduce the "bitcoin foundation" sans their immense budget they blew.
shinohai: I'm
a masochist and type everything LOL
mod6: the first doc is just the commands you need, so it's kinda cut/pasteable. the second is the commands with their output so you can get
a sense of what you should expect to see.
shinohai: np an education is
a terrible thing to waste.
mod6: ah, yeah, so ... this guide is for
a physical box (takes you through using livecd) -- if you wanna set it up in
a VM im sure you can do something similar with
a livecd, just hvae to attach the iso file to the virtual dvd/cdrom drive.. and probably follow the same steps.
shinohai: link me. I have never installed gentoo in my life, but
a good time to learn
mod6: we need
a 3rd person to verify this thing so i can finally send it to the lst.
mod6: I'm gonna put up
a few too, but gotta wait about 6 wks.
mod6: heheh. well, just make sure if you /do/ put up
a node, it is somewhat phasar resistant
shinohai: @ mod6 when I raise
a few more btc and
a few bugs worked out, I am going to put 2 more up, one at my gf's house and one at my friends.
mod6: i guess more importantly than that, im gonna do
a for(0->366XXX) dump of each block and hash it, compare it to the list that you ended up with ascii.
shinohai: Buying
a pogo with btc that was on my 0.5.3. node was kinda cool too.
shinohai: I love this shit, takes me
a bit of time to catch up with you warriors, but I'm getting there.
mod6: yikes, threw
a bering 'eh
shinohai: yeah. made
a screech and was gone. I have had that one forever though. I got 5 more old satas but I should just do things right with an ssd
shinohai: It's nice being the first guy to destroy
a SATA installing arch on
a pogo
shinohai: pogo is on hold until I get an ssd, still is
a great chat server
mod6: as
a reminder tho, those hashes of my .dat files were from "the wild" sync.
shinohai should try
a resync to ascii's node
cazalla: i'll have to take your word for it as this is
a problem i doubt i will ever have
cazalla: that's
a pretty fail attempt tbh
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell nanaki find
a better hobby, what can i tell you.
cazalla: speaking of Seinfeld.. "On Wednesday (April 29) the online streaming service Hulu struck
a deal with the “show about nothing,” paying $700,000 per episode ($130 million) for the rights to add the series to its already stellar lineup."
mircea_popescu: pro tip : if your AN is in there you're
a fucktard, i don't care if your name is "verizon"
mircea_popescu: and what's "enter" anyway, every time you load
a webpage that pulls their fucktarded button ?
hazirafel: would you use
a program that sends bitcoin to the cruch of satane very time you enter facebook?
mircea_popescu: incidentally kakobrekla could assbot be changed so instead of dropping
a bitly links it drops an archive.today link ?
nanaki: My (nanaki's) message to mircea_popescu: I have placed
a bet on bitbet.us and sent BTCs and successfully confirmed at block# 366130 but the website doesn't apply it. The bottom of the page says "Last block: 1 hour 4 minutes ago (366131)" so it must have applied my bet. ==> SOLVED: the site reflected my bet 1h 18m later since confirmed. Usually the reflection is quick so I slightly panicked! Thank you.
cazalla: the great thing about irc though is that you can leave
a message now and just tab back in an hour, tmw or even next week
punkman: "The loan will have
a maximum maturity of three months and will be disbursed in up to two instalments. It will allow Greece to clear its arrears with the IMF and the Bank of Greece and to repay the ECB, until Greece would start receiving financing under
a new programme from the European Stability Mechanism"
rooder: meanwhile al buys unheard of island to open
a cannery
punkman: you can't get your money but they still call it
a bank
punkman: would you also like
a bridge with that?
cazalla: perhaps trilema when he is
a bit older (side note - the story about the boy and the tree is
a good one i'll read to him when
a little older)
trinque: that's
a hell of
a step in the right direction
cazalla: enjoys books too which is good but reading jack and the beanstalk for 20th time each day gets
a bit much, he's really picked up with that past 1-2 months bring us books to read him
cazalla: he's pretty clever, stacked
a couple pillows in order to get up on the tv unit
cazalla: gabriel_laddel, good but his tantrums have kicked up
a notch and he climbs everything
gabriel_laddel: Allegrocache is the only lisp solution that will work for this size dataset afaik, and I've spent
a lot of time looking.
trinque: or they happened upon
a few tools that answered enough of the essential questions that they never bothered asking more
trinque: most businesses out there (that make
a profit even!) are entirely blind
trinque: ben_vulpes: it's fine; eats
a sql string or sexp version thereof, farts list
gabriel_laddel: When I say 'work', I mean I want to be able to start typing on the screen, and if I feel like putting in
a drawing, I draw on the screen. Or I bring something from my scanner on to the screen, or I send something from my screen to someone else. Or I get my Mac to play the tune I've just written on the screen on
a synthesiser. Or well, the list obviously is endless. And if I need any particular tool to enable me to d
gabriel_laddel: 3. Have
a bit of fun provided I've done enough of 2, which is rarely, but that's another issue.
trinque: I'll take
a gun to fire tomorrow too
ben_vulpes: there's
a difference between chewing and
a tool that abstracts
a thing that needs doing
trinque: I am not sorry I used relational as
a "gun to fire today"
ben_vulpes: Adlai: once told me that the 'log reading' period for CL was well in excess of that for #b-
a phf: asciilifeform: that's my answer to. the log is
a contingency plan for when the lisp instance fails, which it rarely does. in which case your goal is to reconstruct the state from the time of last save-lisp (say an hour), till the point of crash
phf: in my experience it's cheaper to literally go
a log file and reconstruct data manually the one time your system crash, then introduce uknowable redundancies that tend to increase complexity and ultimately result in the crash, because doesn't fit in head
phf: i think the idea here is that some data loss is way cheaper then programmer time. also memory is way cheaper then programmer time. if you have
a really critical data stream, just do
a write only log, that you can either replay or even just recover manually
phf: i've crashed cmucl
a few times, but only when i would reach into heap to access vectors directly. acl and lispworks never crash on me
