asciilifeform: ( for n00bz, m-r is montecarlistic for probable-primality but deterministic for compositeness, i.e. if outputs 'composite' then you have in fact a composite )

asciilifeform: in range of what i estimated earlier, in http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-11#1886357 ☝︎

asciilifeform: ( with minimal cpu load, i.e. emacs )

a111: Logged on 2018-10-11 17:08 asciilifeform: !Q later tell phf i recently found that lcd panel made by (defunkt) 'pixelqi co', pq3qi-01 , is still sold by chinese ( i have nfi if clones, or old stock ), ~100 $ ea; the thing toggles from 1024x600 colour/backlit into a 3072x600 greyscale reflector thing, worx with various lappies ( sadly not x60, it's a 16:9 )

mircea_popescu: i thought it was more a case of "yes we can [push affirmative action victim from http://btcbase.org/log/2014-07-19#761494 sadness to presidency]" ☝︎

BingoBoingo: TBF, when Obama got stood up in the "Yes, we can" meme in English, I doubt anyone meant "yes we can" to actually that instead of "Yes he can", but English has been broken for a while

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo honestly i'd expect the least ambiguous rendering of "yes we can" would be "si que podemos!"

BingoBoingo: I'll have to dig

a111: Logged on 2018-01-09 17:18 mircea_popescu: but what do i know, i dun have fifty +1/+1 green beret cultural experts on the ground to write me briefs.

BingoBoingo: Anyways, CNN is hearing "Sí, se puede" in chants and translating it to "Yes we can". I am hearing "Si se puede" more of an "if he can..."

mircea_popescu: i can see that word making a republican career. "buncha latibulizers!!!"

BingoBoingo: I promise, all I did was kill the links. Yes its spam, but lulzy.

BingoBoingo: I'm seeing photos of freeways full of people in Caracas, but it is hard to tell how many kilos of dry noodles they are getting for showing up

mircea_popescu: "getting upset" is this specific behaviour, a la : http://trilema.com/2009/krossfire-sau-vlad-stoiculescu/#comment-127467 (practically a sort of sand-meet-head, i guess).

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform meanwhile found it : http://trilema.com/2009/visurat-s-a-dat-de-goala/ (notable for saying "yesterday at [film festival] i saw two films. one was "the happiest girl in the world" and i found myself in there. i laughed, i felt a bitter taste in the mouth, and i realised i might end up like that", and then FAILING to make the connection with http://trilema.com/2017/alexandru-osvald-pastorel-teodoreanu/#footnote_17

asciilifeform: (i.e. why memorable ? )

mircea_popescu: and in YET OTHER obscure lulz (that i suspect only hanbot is equipped to appreciate), http://visurat.ro/

a111: Logged on 2018-08-01 03:03 douchebag: I'm in AT&T Hall of Fame

BingoBoingo: But I'll get the updates. Dude's apparently not even setting his pulpit up in the Pope's designated spot in Tres Cruces

mircea_popescu: MRExtreme 52M Dom "Hi LordMP, I will be travelling to Costa Rica with my slave. Do you have any (kinky) tips ? Have a nice day MRExtreme" LordMPofTMSR "You can start with the customary six months of log reading ; other than that specific channel I have nothing to say to uppity plebs."

Mocky: BingoBoingo can you set me up with mp-wp in my wwwhabeeb directory on uy1 for mockyhabeeb.com? I want to see what migrating my blog will involve.

a111: Logged on 2019-01-22 23:18 asciilifeform: can't wait for the logical end of this, when they cut e.g. the screen ( 'why do you need a screen, terrorist. talk to the box with mouth..' ) and eventually will ship a http://www.loper-os.org/?p=405 i expect.

spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889396 <-- there is a !1list command (no extra args) that lists subscriptions for the user who PMs it. however, it doesn't work in chan and I didn't document it due to its spamminess. feedbot will reply with one rss feed per line, not sure if it would be more appropriate to list rss feeds in a paste or something. curious to hear opinions re this ☝︎

asciilifeform: so i guess could.

mircea_popescu: twas half back in i dunno even, 2015 maybe.

asciilifeform: the mamies win their appeals cuz there's 100mil of'em and system aint set up to send ~all~ of'em downriver, there aint enuff clinks to house'em all. whereas 'terrorists' in the 'supermax' there's a coupla dozen of, and i've yet to heard of 1 being cut loose on appeal

asciilifeform: possibly i read it backwards?

mircea_popescu: "show" has a very specific legal definition: whatever the judge feels like that day. I have been involved in thousands of these SSI cases, and to describe the system as arbitrary is to describe Blake Lively as "fair.""

asciilifeform: ( last i knew , still was )

mircea_popescu: i don't know that there ever was a "conviction" that stood other than by sheer disinterest of the convicted.

asciilifeform played trilemaroulette, and got http://trilema.com/2014/i-saw-and-was-saddened/ vintage lul

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: there are some ads that dun even pretend to make sense from commercial pov, and are strictly 'behold the glory of the great inca'. i used to ride the train erry day, it would as often as not be covered in ads for lockheed, grumman, etc, with photo of latest $trillion will-get-stuck-in-erry-canal boat, submarine, etc

asciilifeform: can't wait for the logical end of this, when they cut e.g. the screen ( 'why do you need a screen, terrorist. talk to the box with mouth..' ) and eventually will ship a http://www.loper-os.org/?p=405 i expect. ☟︎

asciilifeform: come to think of it , i can't recall when last saw a winblowz ad as such

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i suspect direct theft, tbh.

mircea_popescu: sometimes i sit here and regret the days i was wriging 2-3-5 articles/day on trilema. then i read one of those, and it's always, "o cute, 1/10 of an article".

asciilifeform: i dun recall this slogan appearing in gringolandia-side ads, but reminiscent of crapple's 'think differently' or what was it

mircea_popescu: o yeah, i recall now! at the time, microshit (panicked no doubt over euro-bureaucracies going linux-ish) was media-buying massively. in ro campaign was "be smart".

asciilifeform: i used it to prototype the o(1) tx index thing (also posted, but dun have the logptr handy atm)

a111: Logged on 2017-06-06 19:40 asciilifeform: mod6, phf , et al : http://nosuchlabs.com/pub/ada/horsecocks.tar.gz << i dun recall posting this before, so here it will live, for nao : unofficial release of mmaptron

asciilifeform: i'ma have to do some serious detective work, when i get a free hand .

mircea_popescu: i see it now.

asciilifeform: this is done with a standard ada feature called 'controlled limited type'. which i found that, for no documented reason, dunwork in gnat's static lib. ☟︎

asciilifeform: observe that 'M' knows when the end of its life comes, and gets synced to disk (if applicable , i.e. was mapped r/w) and properly cleaned up, without any such abortion as a 'free' statement a la c

a111: Logged on 2019-01-22 17:17 asciilifeform: ok , having read this, i gotta laff, this is yet-another 'oh noez doesn't use usg.pki like inca commanded' 'bug'

a111: Logged on 2019-01-22 15:17 asciilifeform: the only case i discovered so far that demands it, is mmap ( the map ~must~ know when it is about to go out of scope )

asciilifeform: i dun disagree with (what i think is) mircea_popescu's upstack point, tho, bigger machine gives you bigger wrench to drop on yer foot re complexity.

mircea_popescu: and the problem of "wut use then" is still open, in which context i perceive eg the bolix wank.

mircea_popescu: yes. which is what i'm saying, c was useful pre 32bit regs.

asciilifeform: i fughet what it was called

asciilifeform: ftr, i never had a c compiler on my c64

BingoBoingo: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889353 << Trying to find "news" today I see nothing outside the log that isn't eclipsed by the log in importance ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2019-01-22 15:02 asciilifeform: oh hm i thought diana_coman were baking client nowadays

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889150 << there's no way to have a rsa-aware client without the corresponding server, yes ? it's a whole migration, just, i was hoping she'd only have to do the server side, was the point of http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-05#1884608 comment. ☝︎☝︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i currently suspect that all langs on planet3, living and extinct, have term for 'anal child'. it's a reasonably common bio-failuremode, like schizo etc.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i read buncha trilema, lolwat.

mircea_popescu: i suppose.

mircea_popescu: mn smart. You join up with Johnny Caspar, you bump Bernie Bernbaum. Up is down. Black is white. Well, I think you're half smart. I think you were straight with your frail, I think you were queer with Johnny Caspar... and I think you'd sooner join a ladies' league than gun a guy down. Then I hear from these two geniuses they never even saw this rub-out take place. "

mircea_popescu: in the end, "the smart don't like the intelligent" is the exact male equiv of ye female http://trilema.com/2016/the-pedoepiphany/ ; or in the immortal words of http://trilema.com/2014/millers-crossing/ " You are so goddamn smart. Except you ain't. I get you, smart guy. I know what you are. Straight as a corkscrew. Mr. Inside-Outski, like some goddamn Bolshevik picking up his orders from Yegg Central. You think you're so godda

a111: Logged on 2018-10-18 18:59 mircea_popescu: 90% of the time i try to read something, the attempt fails ; and almost always it is because the author is insulting my smarts, not my intelligence. they're all such intelligent men, from sf writers to hayek to what have you. the problem is that they're not smart.

mircea_popescu: i suppose it's still disqualified, i didn't state it in romanian.

mircea_popescu: i can ~also~ very relaxedly put a temperature of 0 on "to find out the sum of integers up to a limit, write them twice, once going left, once going right, sum the units and divide by two".

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, but notice how "arithmetic" does not have a very great substance. the reason people like eg euler is very much in the vein of that http://trilema.com/2017/is-it-still-rape-if-i-write-science-on-my-penis-first/#selection-83.0-119.187 old "science == society game" model of science :

mircea_popescu: i can relaxedly put a temperature of 0 on the coupling between the string "number is divisible by two if last digit is divisible by two" and the respective index in the problem stair.

a111: Logged on 2018-12-28 17:15 mircea_popescu: seems to me the unspoken heuristic is, "large enough so it's not meaningful [and therefore large enough to not bother] and small enough so it's not larger than some other number i thought about".

asciilifeform: all i know so far is that ditching c (esp. pointerism & heapism aspects) saves massive loc for given problem. but cannot quantify exactly what this means in re www servers.

asciilifeform: all of this is entirely troo. i'm not yet aware of any cthulhu-grade maffs in www server tho.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i mean in the traditional school of digit manipulation.

mircea_popescu: consider the item i was discussing with the girls last nigyht over coffees : there ~are~ rules for divisibility of integers for ~any~ integer, not just 2 or 3 or 5 or 9.

a111: Logged on 2019-01-21 15:48 mircea_popescu: oh, and, of course : "Latest activity PetiteGoddess21 posted a journal entry on her profile titled “ill sell whatever you want”: about 10 hours ago I'll sell whatever you want ;) ( including videos, pics ,sexting, etc) if got all types of cloths for sale and request how you want them and how many days worn you want I'll also include a video of me playing in them , using them or anything else ... continue reading → "

mircea_popescu: i do not know exactly why, but both in case of mysql and apache, the cocksuckers ( http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-21#1888849 slash http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-17#1887990 items from before, and may it never be forgotten what they EXACTLY ARE) got sent packing to "make their own" that nobody gave a shit about. ☝︎☝︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i dun like to 'power ranger' ( as you called it in old essay ) a problem.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889134 << the discussion died (i have no doubt under exact same "gotta rsfm" pressure), but we were talking 2016ish about needing own protocol (meanwhile in practice eulora is trying udp and that may even prove sufficient, eg). but yes, tmsr router obviously premature. ☝︎

mircea_popescu: (and i mean infinitely ~LESS~ complex, if it's not evident)

mircea_popescu: i suspect having people well experienced in such things with toy buttons first is the way to go.

mircea_popescu: i do not.

asciilifeform: i suspect that nailing down the stack ~bottom first~ would help.

mircea_popescu: but i am discouraged by the result of the training exercise for this matter, where apparently in spite of attempts to standardize the infinitely more complex mp-wp, the result was similarly tower of bable.

mircea_popescu: i don't even remember ~when~ i last compiled apache.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in each item's case, i'm interested in what's ~beneath~ the fungus

mircea_popescu: so i suppose ~in that limited sense~ it can be said "same thing". but it is limited enough for the alternation of seats to be in the end not surprising but rather to be expected.

a111: Logged on 2019-01-07 19:29 mircea_popescu: i suppose in this the model breaks down, with the advent of pseudo"technology", the shy withdrawing type can "HackerCombat LLC is a news site, which acts as a source of information for IT security professionals across the world. We have lived it for more than 1 year since 2017, sharing IT expert guidance and insight, [...] " bla bla bla all day long.

mircea_popescu: the fucking insanity, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-21#1882561 ; the particular apache running trilema has ~never~ crashed. nor do i expect it ever will ; nor can i conceive how the fuck "it's open to all comers on a net interface" can even begin to be equated with "it's facing me and my keyboard and that's all". you're not ~trying~ to fucking crash emacs, are you ? on the fucking contrary, which is the ~exact contrary~ of w ☝︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i promise to come back to the item laters, when have with what to illustrate.

asciilifeform: ok , having read this, i gotta laff, this is yet-another 'oh noez doesn't use usg.pki like inca commanded' 'bug' ☟︎

a111: 2019-01-09 <phf> http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-06#1885092 << i have a couple and the first one i bought i think had that issue, i didn't bother replacing it, and after first cleaning i believe it went away, or possibly i stopped noticing. the one at my office definitely has clean clicks on all they keys, so if it bothers you perhaps worth replacing

asciilifeform: ( i think he is stuck in some meatspace limbo just nao )

asciilifeform: iirc phf attempted also to use it, to make a framebuffer driver in ada, but i dun recall if he ever returned with output

a111: Logged on 2019-01-21 00:07 asciilifeform: in asciilifeform's o(1) tx indexer ( will be welded to an experimental bdb once i get the mmap thing resolved ) there's a 2-level storage -- a 'write-once' o(1) index for blox of age N ( N can be 100-500 in practice ), and a much smaller rewritable one kept strictly in ram ( for 'recent' blox, where the longest chain is potentially movable )

asciilifeform: may recall, 1st draft of ffa used genericism, i removed it

asciilifeform: ( i hesitate to use genericism at all until i properly grasp how the fuck it worx )

asciilifeform: ftr i also do not yet know why the variant where 100% of the lib is genericised, worked

asciilifeform: when i have a free hand or 2, i'ma apply diana_coman's published method to the thing and see whether cured.

asciilifeform: diana_coman: unless you desperately need mmap in your own proggy, i recommend not to bother with it nao

diana_coman: anyways, I'll go and dig into the comms protocol some more

diana_coman: I suppose you can at least try and check whether standalone static might cure it, though still weird

asciilifeform: but i suspect it's curable via diana_coman's recent method.

asciilifeform: note that mmap is not a front burner item currently for asciilifeform - i dun need it in ffa, will come back to it after.

asciilifeform: i sawed on it for some weeks then, but only additional find was that any attempt at using controlled_limited from inside a static lib gave same effect.
