mircea_popescu: the discussion is whether you're an educated sort of dude with collapsed bands, or a barbarian needing "multiple" but somehow magically not infinity-many bands
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag would you stop trying to be cute. in band signalling is the only fucking signalling there is, until you invent telepathy.
mircea_popescu: "This is one of those things that seem true for those who have gotten spoiled by the windowing environment. The reason this can't be considered true is that at some point, you have to specify (or get down to) a ModelOfComputation, and the one most programmers use is simply different than LISP which is very different since it has no definition of MachineTypes?. See ConfusedComputerScience."
mircea_popescu: slash-dottie's first short skirt, slash-dottie's first drunken sexual encounter, slash-dottie's first gangbang, where's that pic of sharon stone
mircea_popescu: “We see the Slashdot community as a vibrant community made up of industry professionals and enthusiasts that are extremely passionate about tech, tech news and discussion, many of which have been active and engaged for over a decade,” he added.
mircea_popescu: “Well, I’m not sure I completely agree that Slashdot is less vital these days or has lost its luster,” he replied. “It serves millions of unique viewers each month, which we think is pretty significant.
mircea_popescu: “Our plans for Slashdot include supporting the mission of Slashdot’s slogan, ‘news for nerds, stuff that matters,'” he said. “The site has millions of loyal users that visit and engage on the site each month, and we want to do the things necessary to keep Slashdot positioned as the best technology-centric news and discussion site on the web. We do not plan any radical changes, and will keep the opinions of th
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo that article is fucking epic. dude's so pointedly answering from a web-cattle farmer locus it's hysterical.
mircea_popescu: Slashdot Media, which owns the popular websites SourceForge and Slashdot, has been sold to SourceForge Media, LLC, a subsidiary of web publisher BIZX, LLC << o check it out, moar spam.
mircea_popescu: whoa mom, check me out, i made it through yet another day of these here kiloline logs!
mircea_popescu: well other than get bogged down in / give a shit about inept nonsense being thrown their way.
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag i just meant they've been living in a particular half-world for a while now.
mircea_popescu: yeah but it folk's been whores for so many years now...
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag you know, "thinking of the work this means".
mircea_popescu: all the shit you boys do just to get to pretend like you don't need any adhd meds.
mircea_popescu: that what female enslavement is all about in the first place.
mircea_popescu: hey, the whole thing's predicated on productive waste.
mircea_popescu: sounds like actually an improvbement over current caning best practices.
mircea_popescu: punishment doesn't necessarily have to be a spur of a moment thing, i'm not training dogs.
mircea_popescu: ascii_butugychag this harkens back to such a more lovely time in the computer lab.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: well i'm not willing to stake on that, because what the fuck do you know we'll discover. but at least as an expected ideal, yeah.
mircea_popescu: anyway, re the other point : even if scheme does in the end become an integral part of sane error management a) his work is very important for providing the structure that'll illuminate that and b) will prolly be mostly reused strings in different wrapping anyway.
mircea_popescu: i'm slowly discovering what an IMMENSE help to debugging and code maintenance this thematic unity thing is, incidentally.
mircea_popescu: specifically because "majority is better than minority in every practical way" except the one way that actually matters, which the majority is never willing to confront.
mircea_popescu: and this is how bitcoin will continue to kick the teeth in of any sort of fiat, no matter how superficially bitcoinized.
mircea_popescu: THIS is how bitcoin, the "minority coin" par excellence, kicked fiat's teeth in.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller minority coins may be "worse in every practical way", but they are BETTER in the only way that matters : minority doesn't inflate, majority does.
mircea_popescu: the best way forward, imo, is to restructure it as 1) one large patch consisting of nothing but the return fixes and some smaller patches doing the rest of the stuff built on top of that.
mircea_popescu: polarbeard don't get this wrong, you did a lot of very useful work in that patch.
mircea_popescu: or whatevs, tail logfile | mess for teh realtime stuff
mircea_popescu: the point is that people running bitcoind have a whole array of measures, which mostly work as cat logfile | mess
mircea_popescu: yes, if you just dump into console i'm going to have to pipe the program throuygh a bunch of different greps
mircea_popescu: note however you should dump to file not to console. because otherwise mess of tee's
mircea_popescu: note that the only way i got my apparently very controversial /s /t patch to even be considered was showing how it could be machined.
mircea_popescu: polarbeard yeah, you get the right idea, but seriously, making a single patch consisting of JUST -return error +return error is the right way
mircea_popescu: but it's also immense and should all be one single patch so we can see it more readily.
mircea_popescu: 1601+ return error(SBLK "failure wrting block file %d to disk due invalid stream position", nFileRet);
mircea_popescu: - return error("CBlock::WriteToDisk() : ftell failed");
