mircea_popescu: nor is anyone to be had who knows how to set up a raid of spinners, or could be arsed to.
mircea_popescu: sure, "it can be compressed". HOWEVER, compress as you will, two an' a half raw terrabytes throughput will wear a ssd enough to be noticeable. and then the next day comes, and soon enough nobody wants to buy a new ssd each other week for EACH CAM
mircea_popescu: that has been an open secret for a while.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: makes sense; atm though there's still a lot of "posts" all over mp-wp and it's annoying because it makes me trip over and go "post" when I mean article, myeah; a lot of cleaning left to do on that but irc billymg was on it so I shall refrain currently from further trespassing :P
mircea_popescu: eventually that could evolve into detaCHED signature. have tmsr-gpg issue a one-line base-whatever tmsr standard detached sig for text.
mircea_popescu: explain to the user that if he wants to be later identified, put a string in there.
diana_coman: yeah, would give some idea as to what it is; given I took out any check on email field now anyway, I'd really want a screenshot if it happens again! lolz
hanbot: what can you do. if i ever see it again i'll take a screenshot or somethin'.
hanbot: plenty moar than 6. i suppose it's possible i failed to get an @ in there...but i don't think so. ofc i don't have much of a way to go back and review.
diana_coman: hanbot: iirc there was some issue if one messed up something in that additional spam filtering change because it touches indeed the same file and it's ~easy to make a mistake so it just kills all comments; but then it kills all really so hm.
hanbot: i wonder wtf tho'. i remember popping that message when i was trying to adjust the spam filter on the themes to work correctly, but that's been fixed a -while-. maybe it thought my email addy's offensive somehow lol.
mod6: Since then, it seems like that may be a first-order of business.
mod6: I had some stuff I was testing and working on, but it did not include a 'cleaving-off' of the wallet.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-11-29 03:55:19 jfw: mod6, trinque or other TRB scholars: has there been progress toward raw transaction RPCs since http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/2018-April/000297.html ? I've written a getrawtransaction (in my queue to publish) but am in need of a sendrawtransaction for a split wallet I'm working on ( http://fixpoint.welshcomputing.com/2019/gales-bitcoin-wallet-spec-and-battle-plan/ )
jfw: the noted split in UEFI severity is a point.
mircea_popescu: i don't really know anyone who both a) is technically literate and b) thinks post 2015 intel chips are actually worth money, as it happens. a situation eerily reminiscent of every other socialism's progress, late sovok folk similarily didn't think late sovok artefacts worth deploying.
mircea_popescu: getting concrete details on this partition would certainly help, as a starting point.
mircea_popescu: there;s at least one major separation in the uefi latrine (plenty others, of course, the thing's fractally broken), which fortunately occured just about that moment in time when intel chips became thoroughly useless. so not supporting uefi-2, "must have to work" is relatively a small loss, as it goes with the shitty spycore intel chips anyways, which nobody wants (though might be tolerated in some roles for cheapness' sake
mircea_popescu: i dunno, i'd rather this didn't end up with a tmsr motherboard.
mircea_popescu: jfw, the ideal solution here'd be a de-uefi-izing dongle.
mircea_popescu: the nsa is firmly entrenched in controlling that sweet, sweet path to diff power analysis, they've glued it thoroughly with all the broken glass of "energy efficiency" faux ourdemocracy preoccupations, it strikes me as one of the things that'll only dislodge once the emperor himself is rapemeat.
dorion_road: I can see it, I think I read about lilo in the logs, then have stuck with since following the gentoo handbook a few years back, apart from one public toilet efi laptop where I went with grub.
dorion_road: I am working on a work plan for myself for the next week(s). I will publish as an article this week when ready.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-29 14:49:29 mircea_popescu: dorion, it'd prolly be a good idea to take your own trackbacks out of the (independently --VERY SHORT) recent comments toolbar. i can't tell what's going on
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-29 03:51:10 spyked: dorion_road: so I'm sort of a "master of none", I guess. but in general, I'm interested in doing any infrastructure work required to get a tmsr-os up, I think I can handle it, with probably some ramp-up time to learn the code. imho needs figuring out what's really needed tho, e.g. from your list, what work is required for bootloaders/biosen and wh
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-29 03:43:59 spyked: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-11-27#1953704 <-- not sure what'd be the best fit, tbh. I'm an odd one, spent years studying the theory re os and systems in general. but as far as actual work goes, other than my public work, I've been doing mostly maintenance (bugfixing, a bit of feature development) for linux kernels driving custom hardware/schedulers/netwo
BingoBoingo: It is a small sadness that it looks like I'll be leaving Uruguay just as it starts to get interesting, but... the local vandals don't seem to have discovered how to make "ninja rocks" outta ceramic insulators.
mircea_popescu: "coming soon to a walmart near you"
BingoBoingo: Last I looked into it they brought at a minimum an additional ~GB of RAM consumption and ~2-50% of CPU utilization as a "Don't copy this floppy" deterrent that forces everyone to download the version with that shit cut out.
BingoBoingo: 5GB of placeholder, what a world
mircea_popescu: so instead : hey lobbes, please fix these and give me a one-line-per-post dump, formatted like "INSERT INTO tril_posts(id, post_author, post_status, post_type, post_name, post_date, post_date_gmt, post_title, post_content); INSERT INTO tril_term_relationships (object_id, term_taxonomy_id) VALUES ("articleid-1", 44);", wheren the ids start with 90800 and the time is now+3 hours whenever you start doing it.
mircea_popescu: seems maybe for the sake of simplicity i could just process the source logs ; but then i'll end up with a broken bot when deployed huh.
billymg: heh, yeah, it's been kicking my ass kinda, but in a good way (learning a lot at least)
BingoBoingo: Some better photos showing a bit more than broken glass... http://archive.is/mSpDd

diana_coman: come to think of it, it makes perhaps more sense to note that the 30 minutes worth of changes should in fact be correctly expressed as at least an hour worth of write-up; basically I had too little write-up to justify a vpatch!
spyked: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-11-30#1953982 <-- will also look into that and I'll post a fix. I'm having the markdown plugin generate footnotes instead of ye olde footnotes plugin.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-01 22:46:01 mircea_popescu: anyways -- i dun think a blog should list pingbacks either in the comment rss or in the "new comments" navbar.
mircea_popescu: clearly the web's such a repository of information.
diana_coman: maybe it's just that I remembered why I had taken a break from computers, can be.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-30 14:10:35 diana_coman: code changes that took 30 minutes, lol; not sure how can one define it more precisely in the general like that, it depends on a lot of things after all.
mircea_popescu: anyway, this is then a mpwp guffaw, should evidently stick to one convention.
mircea_popescu: the function is just a wrapper on the exact same thing, wp_list_comments('type=comment'); is exactly SELECT * FROM $wpdb->comments WHERE comment_approved = '1' and comment_type = 'comment'
mircea_popescu: you're doing the same thing in two different ways -- one place you ask for an empty type, the other for a "comment" type
diana_coman: in one place it does a direct select in db ; in the other it uses its own function and that has its own parameters
mircea_popescu: incidentally -- there's a divergence in your patch. on the first heading you say and comment_type = '' but on the second heading you say
diana_coman: well, the way this goes then is simply this - I should have passed the vpatch making on to a more junior person then; because ok, familiarity -> figure the shit out but the fixed cost of vpatch packaging is what it is
mircea_popescu: as the man said, "you wanted me to design a typeface, it takes 10 minutes + a lifetime dedicated to preparing for those 10 minutes"
diana_coman: code changes that took 30 minutes, lol; not sure how can one define it more precisely in the general like that, it depends on a lot of things after all.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: no, it's neither about the write up (after all, I did it *because* I considered it needed) nor about the 20 minutes on it; it's about the fact that a vpatch containing ~30 hours worth of changes would have taken ~similar in writeup and the rest.
mircea_popescu: arguably a press + vdiff + test press + sign shouldn't be half an hour, but it seems to me by now we're trying to measure the measuring tool, it's not even clear the measurement tolerance is narrower than the width of that "shouldn't". by how much shouldn't it be half hour.
mircea_popescu: honestly it doesn't seem to me the breakdown you have is unreasonable. it will take some time to write things up. this time SHOULD be taken, there's no benefit from "oh, let me mention things vaguely and anti-usefully in the log", it's worse than nothing, it's a cost upon the future.
diana_coman: the grating thing being also that the only alternative I see would be "drop it in the logs/blog" as a clue/how-to and then keep searching for it or something.
diana_coman: not to mention that I specifically packed more than just the initial change that you were pushing, precisely because of this issue - the overhead on a vpatch means that small but useful changes will have to wait to accumulate.
diana_coman: because a vpatch comes with such a large overhead
diana_coman: it can be said also that "well, 2 lines of change taking 10 minutes to do should NOT HAVE BEEN a vpatch"
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: mno, it's not just a matter of "tools were not set out properly"; tools were set out and there was no time lost gathering them or whatever; yes, there is some inevitable delay when using key, for obv reason but by now that part is as streamlined as it can currently be.
mircea_popescu: taylorism ftw, half the time the problem's one of "you know, if you set out the tools on the bench BEFORE you got the hot piece out of the oven, rather than run around the smithy holding a chunk of red iron while looking for things..."
mircea_popescu: then again, that was pushed through in a different context, maybe needs reexamination
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-29 17:10:06 mircea_popescu: do we have a problem there, is it ?
diana_coman: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-11-29#1953885 - tbh I think we do; I've been mulling this for a while ie I'm not happy with the full V setup as it is - at least as it is for me currently - but so far it never made it to the front to push for some solution.
jfw: mircea_popescu: nifty, thanks. Will see if I can accomodate on this pass; otherwise what I'd be working toward is a wallet that's still "declared" but with keys not accessible to node.
jfw: Luby / LT codes? Got a paper on that waiting in a nearby pile, heh
mircea_popescu: jfw, after all, if q = a + b and p = a + c and r = b + c then q + p - r = 2a. if as are addresses and qs are wallets, one needn't ~declare~ his wallet to count his money.
jfw: The necessary index would be large if history is included, perhaps on the order of the existing ones (blkindex.dat), but omitting it strikes me as rather a premature optimization by satoshi.
jfw: mircea_popescu: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-11-29#1953825 - I think I do now: the ideal node would be able to readily list outputs and thus balances, and perhaps also history, for any given list of addresses, statelessly. Like a block explorer that didn't suck.
mircea_popescu: do we have a problem there, is it ?
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, this could be a patch, no ?
diana_coman: I guess so; but I meant it more as in why default in the genesised mpwp; anyways, perhaps billymg makes a patch to take those out of there and to put also trackbacks/pingbacks as last in comments (I've fixed this on my blog only a few days ago but by default they mix in comments too)
mircea_popescu: at the rate of one trackback each death of a bishop's the bug was never observed.
mircea_popescu: in the original idiot prototype trackbacks function as a sort of assonaut social interaction, the transcription online of the weird talking into the air eyes averted thing they do.
mircea_popescu: because in pre-trilema world articles ~never referenced anything, so nobody understood what a trackback even is.
mircea_popescu: dorion, it'd prolly be a good idea to take your own trackbacks out of the (independently --VERY SHORT) recent comments toolbar. i can't tell what's going on
diana_coman: tbh by now I really want to give a spin to jfw's gales thing too and actually see what's there.
mircea_popescu: and 2) really gotta genesis, both the script so people DO have a sane way to make edits, and the sources, so we don't depend on randotards keeping whatever software package online.
mircea_popescu: aaaanyways. my chief takeaways from spyked 's article are that 1) a multi-gb os is a joke, no matter how you turn this. it is deeply unclear to me 1mb is a defensible amt of space for the os to occupy,
diana_coman: hm, looking now at it, there doesn't seem to be a pingback on trinque's article from mine despite my linking it; weird.
diana_coman: and apparently the bits and pieces known/sorted about this are not that easy to find or something, hmmm; esp the paths issue was discussed and sorted in the logs + documented at http://ossasepia.com/2019/07/14/a-working-cuntoo-install-on-amd-fx-8350-with-script/

lobbes: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2019-11-29#1953830 << this is a point re: ids. It may make sense for me to first just import your trilema dump and then import my archives

mircea_popescu: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-11-29#1953802 << if it sees more than one new element it reports them in the order seen, which is counter-historical because for some reason rss is newmost on top and obviously irc is newmost on bottom. imo this needs a fix, have the list reversed on feedbot end.

lobbes: in other news, I've got the blog echo complete. Two ways to quote: 1) can use the log line reference link 2) or use a standard #select; bot will read out what is in the "<span id="select">" tags.
lobbes: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2019-11-26#1953652 << this is true. I'm wary about bringing down snr, but refraining altogether also ain't a solution I suppose. Careful derailment
BingoBoingo: The banana democracy thing applied to Uruguay seems to credit it, unwarrantedly with a banana capable climate it doesn't have. Uruguay's literally a moo-cow democracy.
mircea_popescu: also, EVERY woman looked derpier when she just met me vs when she had known me for a while. EVERY ONE. and i don't mean a little derpier, arguably derpier etc.
mircea_popescu: it's a constant "um, roxana... who the fuck's roxana. oh." "monica ?" "ah" and so on.
BingoBoingo: If they locked Mujica up after shooting him half a dozen times in the 70's they probably aren't going to start now.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I suspect a number of members of the outgoing coalition are headed to jail in a smaller version of the Brasilero carwash thing, starting with the losing presidential candidate and including everyone appointed to a position at the refined petroluem products monopoly.
mircea_popescu: well yes it's a process, gotta build up all the "nobody could accuse" ofs.
BingoBoingo: This is notably a walkback from the Fat Forehead position of "We'll wait for the certified result"
