mircea_popescu: the converse is folly, "oh, girl doesn't show her cunt". of course she does. just, maybe not
to you.
mircea_popescu: the problem with
this is
that people wish
to say different
things in different contexts.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-09-25 07:01:56 mircea_popescu: of course,
this could readily also bear
the alternative interepretation of "there is nothing
the rater WISHES
TO SAY".
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: is
there some eta/requirement on/for
the castle-licensing
thing? on my part I'm fine with it as stated.
mircea_popescu: !!rate spyked 9 his lordship
the lord crypto-alchemist
mircea_popescu: it'll benefit
the nooblets immensely if
they seriously spend some
time groking
the "
turn"
thing.
there's a
time for everything ; and for most
things
that
time isn't NOW.
mircea_popescu: there lolz, now you don't have
to regret etcetera keks
mircea_popescu: !!rate lobbes 9 his lordship
the lord of
the auction house
mircea_popescu: !!rate
trinque 9 his lordship
the master of
the rolls.
mircea_popescu: of course,
this could readily also bear
the alternative interepretation of "there is nothing
the rater WISHES
TO SAY".
mircea_popescu: it's philosophically fraught, because as per
the spec a rating of 0 should convey
that
the rater deems he can answer NO questions about
the ratee. in which case... why is it a rating.
mircea_popescu: this is so ; but for
the sake of sanity im not gonna spec significant changes in
the middle of implementing a differen
tspec.
diana_coman: tbh it sounds a bit like discovering
that 0 "exists", lol.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: yes, but not sure I see
the point of "unset"; it's 0
mircea_popescu: i suppose, retrospectively,
this is implementation of folly,
there's no possible usecase for ACTUALLY ever unsetting a rating.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman,
traditionally setting it
to 0 is how you unset it.
diana_coman: hm; why does 0 disappear from
the lists
though?
mircea_popescu: "mp, you can't negrate him, we can't sell
to him if you do" "fuck. i don't wanna 0 it either, it'll disappear from
the lists" "well..." "fuuuuck"
mircea_popescu: i suppose another side effect of all
this is
that it
turns 1 ratings into a sorta morgue.

trinque: bv wishes not
to be raised, and I shan't press
the issue further.
mircea_popescu: hey, who knew, my little gimmick with
the
titles years ago makes
this way
the fuck easier now. win.
mircea_popescu: !!rate diana_coman 9 her ladyship
the marquess eulora.
mircea_popescu: billymg, did you ever find
the
trilema article re how
to re-do your missed pingbacks ?
billymg: mircea_popescu: i could be completely missing
the point
though, i'm still not very familiar with pingbacks outside of
the small bit i've read since you mentioned it
billymg: or, i guess i mean, could a migration script of sorts
that's run once manually accomplish
the same goal?
mircea_popescu: every
time a new article is posted,
there's some subroutine
that goes
through all
the links and sends
the pingbacks.
the idea is
to hijack
that so it re-does
the entire db
mircea_popescu: billymg,
the removal part is easy, just delete * from comments where
trackback
billymg: keeping
the select mechanism in mind*
billymg: or is
the idea
to rip out all unused pieces in xmlrpc (blogger, metaweblog, movabletype, etc...) and rewrite
the pingback support keeping
the select mechanism rather
than layering it in after
the fact?
billymg: i'm not sure if
that's what you meant
though
billymg: i did some reading on pingbacks vs
trackbacks and it looks like we could remove
trackbacks without anyone noticing (mp-wp supports pingbacks and
that seems
to be what everyone is using)
BingoBoingo: Well,
the gasoline's potential danger incentives submission on
the part of
the doused.
The knife point's potential danger has contexts where it could promote resistance.
BingoBoingo: ^ In Airstrip One continuing
to dehumanize
to maximize
the number of human lives
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform,
this recent comments
thing is immensely helpfull, now i can follow wtf
spyked: asciilifeform,
ty! bot's back on
the line
mircea_popescu: well,
the brits being a laughingstock surprises nobody.
mircea_popescu: just like all
the other idiots ever, starting with every 4 year old. no,
the chair isn't alive and didn't willingly
trip you up.
mircea_popescu: they did it by
themselves, for
themselves, ~through being
themselves~. JUST LIKE
the other idiots.
mircea_popescu: except
THESE idiots have no "greater enemy"
to "blame" for it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, qntra piece brings a great point
to
the fore, incidentally :
the usg managed
to implode its colonial posessions / colonial "influence sphere" in
the new world JUST EXACTLY like
the soviets managed
three decades prior.
snsabot: asciilifeform:
time since my last reconnect : 38d 11h 1m
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'll be pushing out
the overview of
the real estate situation on
the ground here
Thursday.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-01-15 12:35:38 asciilifeform: you represent
the inputs ( any # of'em ) via stochasticizers, i.e. each 1 gets a comparator
that eats N bits of rng and outputs a 1 if
they represent integer <=
the currently latched binary number, 0 otherwise.
mircea_popescu: plenty of horror stories from
the early 90s, kinda similar
to ye olde early-Ttank stories.
mod6: mircea_popescu: oh no! sorry
to hear about
the mobo. not an emergency at all. in a rush atm, will re-send later, no worries. :]
mircea_popescu: anyway, will replace
the system during
this week ; if it's an emergency/not
that important re-encrypt
to mp_en_viaje ; if not i'll see
then.
mircea_popescu: mod6,
the machine hosting
that keyset magically died earlier -- just as i was about
to read your
thing, imagine
that. seems
the mobo went,
though
tbh it's a little weird, will have it cut up later.
mircea_popescu: dude it's such a pleasure, waking up
to like
THREE republican blog articles ; me shall get
to it after breakfasts.
lobbes: anyways, I'm off
to write up workplan for week 3, and
then bed
lobbes: incidentally, mircea_popescu with your permission I would like
to bring
the bot into #trilema during
the next week for further
testing (it wouldn't need voice; just needs
to quietly sit in background). I'd like
to see how it handles a heavier log-load
lobbes: I'm going
to leave demo bot running in my monkey castle for
the night, so folx are more
than welcome
to come and
test it /
try
to break it.
lobbes: also,
the code is currently designed for a single chan atm (which would be #trilema, of course). However, would you want multi-chan capability as part of
the delivered final product?
lobbes: mircea_popescu: pls
to let me know if you'd like
the formatting
tweaked. Both in
terms of
the
textual output of log lines as well as
the url format, and
title format.
lobbes: ( for
those
that care, ip of my
test blog above is 208.70.251.10 )
