apeloyee: asciilifeform:
the paste contains
TWO procedures: CLZ and secret shift.
together
they solve
the normalization problem
a111: Logged on 2017-09-20 21:54 asciilifeform: e.g., N is a number
to shift, Q is shift amt, R is result, S = l_shift(N, 1); mux(S, R, R, iszero(Q - 1)); S = l_shift(N, 1); mux(S, R, R, iszero(Q - 2)); ...... mux(S, R, R, iszero(Q - (width-1)))
apeloyee: apologies for
the sad parody of pseudocode.
apeloyee: (assuming mux doesn't leak - who's
to prevent intel from "optimizing" it?)
apeloyee: true, but I
thought you wanted a universally-fast reduction?
apeloyee: you gotta compute
the reciprocal for barrett's somehow.
apeloyee: asciilifeform: is it intended
that ffa doesn't have a shift
that doesn't leak
the upper bits of shift amount (via access pattern)?
trinque: so she can
tutor me with it
trinque: got one
that speaks it, actually
mircea_popescu: really great flick
to watch with girl ; motivate her
to learn french.
trinque: heh, I will be sure
to push
that one onto
the appropriate stack
mircea_popescu: tl;dr : guy is practically a gremlin, dedicated and ~meaningfully so~ industrialist, married
to a credible "woman's job" a la francaise.
they end up quarreling domestically when he destroys her greenhouse
to extend his factory ; she runs for mayor against him (he used
to own unopposed). his platform is "en premier place, le plein emploi ; en seconde, le plein emploi ; e finalment : LE PLEN EMPLOI!"
trinque: then got
the houston flood piece and hypertext-dht piece
to write
trinque: anyhow got payments bot
to ship, which while running long is forcing me
to develop sane processes around airgapped
trb use
apeloyee: asciilifeform: how about a "pediwikian bowdlerization of barrett" after all (don't
truncate multiply results)?
This would be simpler (but slower)
trinque doesn't oppose a guy hand-carving his own
thing at all, either.
lobbes: re
this monitoring
thing: seems like
the key either way is
to have a parent process
that spawns
the child process, rather
than a disconnected process monitoring whatever
trinque: been cranking on being able
to cut
transactions on an airgap machine with only
trb+deps
trinque: and sure, could bash script a loop
that does exactly what you want, and
then bash script your next service
too. people do
that. and
then
they generalize out
the utils, and have a process manager of
their own.
☟︎ trinque: which can be other
than "thrash-loop until operator notices"
mircea_popescu: does it do moar monitoring
than "is PID so and so still
there" ?
trinque: sure, it knows
the PID of its own child process
trinque: and it's
the lightest weight item
that does so,
that I've found
trinque: no, it has a supervisor process
that spawns your
thing, monitors state, respawns if dead
trinque: grepping for logs
to restart is nuts
trinque: eh lobbes
that sounds really damned hairy.
lobbes: for
the meantime, auctions will work over
there an' such
lobbes: I'm gonna look into shinohai's suggestion of checking
the PID rather
than grepping for name. Let's just leave it in #eulora for now and I'll get back once I dig deeper later
tonight/this week
mircea_popescu: lobbes didja give
the code a once over for
the purpose of not ending up with
this again ?
lobbes: I assume IP had
to be banned. I'll leave it up
to
the court whether or not
to unban. bot's only function here was quoting logs.minigame.bz anyhow
mircea_popescu: heck, for
the same money also exclude 2, and perhaps 3 because son of numbers previously hit by bill of numeric attainder.
mircea_popescu: so far i'd be surprised if anyone seriouslty didn't want
to ;
the argument as presented seems sufficiently overabundant!
mircea_popescu: because you gotta add
the spit-fix at
the right juncture.
mircea_popescu: the definition of prime is as quoted, what more is needed here ? 1 is divisible by only itself and
the unit [of measure].
spyked: mircea_popescu, yeha, but maths ppl I read/talked
to "by convenience" define prime as "a number greater
than 1 which is divisible ..."
the reason escapes me. and as usual, online sources are shit.
mircea_popescu: spyked "a prime number is one which is divisible by only itself and
the meter".
a111: Logged on 2017-09-20 19:36 mircea_popescu: anyway,
the above example of "alt-addition" is mostly based on
the happenstance
that in base 10,
the set of digits
that are also prime is {1,2, 3, 5, 7} and
the set of digits
that are not prime is {0, 4, 6, 8, 9} ie it just so happens
to be a perfectly balanced split.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
this works splendidly for blog article imo
mircea_popescu: with
the perhaps eventual result of actually producing a well grounded numeric-theoretic notion of what alf wanted, ie a fucking hash already
mircea_popescu: can come up with a few mp-extended additions of your own, and for
that money even formulate a general
theory of addition extension in
this sense,
spyked: will have
to work out a few more examples on paper.
spyked: oh. confusion is resolved
then
mircea_popescu: in no case would
the carry alter
the current decimal level.
spyked rereads
the definition of mp prime-addition
mircea_popescu: btw, i
take it everyone has played knight's bounty ? as
the crowning accomplishment of
those eastern orc lands ?
mircea_popescu: they're not expensive either,
two for a benjie or somesuch
phf: asciilifeform: fyi
they sell
them within i suspect no more
than half hour from you
mircea_popescu: i suppose
