diana_coman: hm; earlier I used "standalone" as "standalone lib" because there is such a thing: it means precisely that it includes ada run-time
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: diana_coman: i guess you didnt need limited_controlled in your item
diana_coman: hm, I did not have to look into this specifically
a111: Logged on 2018-10-26 02:14 asciilifeform: meanwhile, in gnat bugs : apparently ( and this is documented or mentioned nowhere ) : it is impossible to have a Ada.Finalization.Limited_Controlled type ANYWHERE inside a static library, unless it is generic all the way down (i.e. if the lib package is generic, any sub-packages must also be instantiated as generics )
diana_coman: yes! I can link it static, I can link it dynamically, I can even build it all as a monolithic piece
asciilifeform: i recall.
diana_coman: for about 3 months per year I like it; then I want about 3 months per year of hot sun too; and preferably also 3 months of autumn at least; kind of tall order nowadays
asciilifeform: oh hm i thought diana_coman were baking client nowadays ☟︎
diana_coman: quite; anyways, now that I have on eulora server c,cpp and ada together, it's a whole new level of madness
diana_coman: but I'm not even sure it's that really - more a sort of anti-tool in that it unloads complexity on the user to deal with rather than anything
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889099 << i daren't to 'do something about it' until properly understood the problem. sorta like didnt dare to attempt trb in 2013, or ffa in 2015, etc ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2019-01-22 06:57 BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: how does it cache the e.g. tB of rng i happen to generate in racked box in jp and dload via ssh ? << I will say that this does suggest .jp s a candidate for Pzarro rack 2 when that time comes
BingoBoingo: Seriously. If it wasn't a solo hike I'd rent out my body heat for a share of the patreon beta bucks
a111: Logged on 2019-01-22 04:07 asciilifeform: briefly upstack to http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889021 << possibly i'm thick, but it ~also~ never made sense to me why a ~router~ would fall down, either. seems like if yer pipe is e.g. 100mb/s , and incoming enemy crapola at 1000mb/s, then you simply oughta get (from pov of arbitrary test peer) 90% packet loss. rather than a smoking crater where router was.

BingoBoingo: FTR local mobile phone companies have been advertising Whatsapp gratis since before I arrived. They new point of competition is move up to a postpaid plan and get "netflix gratis"
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: and no it aint a 'industrial' pipe, with asn etc. which is why i marvel, that it closely approximates one functionally, despite the cheap.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: how does it cache the e.g. tB of rng i happen to generate in racked box in jp and dload via ssh ?
asciilifeform: ( symmetric to/from uy, jp, etc, rather than to lolcat local cache, i dun subscribe to the latter )
asciilifeform: i.e. could build router that simply... routes. rather than trying to be 'smart' and keep stateful connections.
asciilifeform: fwiw simply rejecting tcp won't do the trick, you also gotta not allocate state for udp ( all extant routers, afaik, do.. but e.g. s.mg protocol and similar, will operate entirely correctly without this, as i understand it )
asciilifeform: granted i know that they ~do~ fall down, but to me this suggests that they're made of wadded toilet paper, rather than it being an inescapable physical fact
asciilifeform: briefly upstack to http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889021 << possibly i'm thick, but it ~also~ never made sense to me why a ~router~ would fall down, either. seems like if yer pipe is e.g. 100mb/s , and incoming enemy crapola at 1000mb/s, then you simply oughta get (from pov of arbitrary test peer) 90% packet loss. rather than a smoking crater where router was. ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: that way you can have something like civilized engineering calculation, rather than ' i dun know if i'll buy 3 kg of potato or 4, so let me bring a 50 tonne flatbed truck'
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I suspect I know where your point is going, but at this time we don't yet need a violin. We're still trying to sit in chairs without finding out ass navigating debris on its way to the ground.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the pt i was trying to make is possibly too subtle to readily make sense until i write a proggy around it, to illustrate. which sadly aint happening in near term.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: last i recall it was =~ apache, but with buncha features cut out ( phpism, load balanceism, etc )
mircea_popescu: i don't think there even exists a publication currently that manages 500 reader-days. period and full stop, the fucking bible doesn't get that.
mircea_popescu: i guess one could say "my blog will never have 100s of simultaneous readers, so mp's machine is 10x overprovisioned". which is fine, but also entirely arbitrary.
mircea_popescu: i mean, pick a thoroughput you wish, build the box, that's what you get.
mircea_popescu: i dunno what specifically overprovisioning would mean here.
a111: 16 results for "what i think it crashes", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=what%20i%20think%20it%20crashes
asciilifeform: !#s what i think it crashes
asciilifeform: i'll believe, will assume mircea_popescu actually tested with a lan-connected box requesting loads at gb/s or whichever. but to make this guarantee with apache and other heapistic softs, needs massive margin of iron
asciilifeform: the folx who shat out apache & co., i suspect were at least as aggressively retarded as koch.
mircea_popescu: and you said it was to show that you were my sweetheart and I was yours. But I suppose you've eaten the one I gave you?"
mircea_popescu: and thus restaurated, we can then continue our readings of the morn! to wit : "You didn't talk like that before," said Dulcie plaintively. "I—I thought perhaps you'd be glad to see me. You were once. And—and—when you went away last you asked me to—to—kiss you, and I did, and I wish I hadn't. And you gave me a ginger[Pg 72] lozenge with your name written on it in lead pencil, and I gave you a cough-lozenge with mine;
trinque: I'll get to it shortly
lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-17#1888176 << to update: I've just now set up irssi on the box with no issues. ty again ☝︎
asciilifeform: depressing subj, back when i had crt, never 1ce saw 'frame tear', not since cga days at any rate
a111: Logged on 2019-01-21 00:27 asciilifeform: i had a 30k$ sgi 3d viewer thing, worked ok ( 1 part 50kg crt, other part went on yer head. ) point is that nao you can get ~same thing for 100. not that there's much in the way of people who are still doing any of this afaik.
mircea_popescu: other than terminals which are habitually filmed, i can't imagine what use for non-60hz refresh.
asciilifeform: i dun think i even have any moar displays that do >60
mircea_popescu: i think it's actually capped at 60 in configs tho.
asciilifeform: i also thought there was in the l0gz a place where somebody measured it with 'soft' 3d and it gave 60+hz. ( can't seem to dig up tho )
mircea_popescu: you asked what more, yes ? i told.
mircea_popescu: i literally know people who would genocide the country for this one sin.
asciilifeform: there's oddballs continuing the 'fine tradition' out of , i suspect, sheer nostalgia. ( i do not know whether they use clothespin or get somebody to break nose tho... )
mircea_popescu: the language, i mean.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i entirely agree, as consequence of the 'abuse' asciilifeform never once 'fretted' about languages
mircea_popescu: i dunno why people fret so much about languages generally.
mircea_popescu: o wait -- did i say two negatives ? i meant "help as to hinder".
mircea_popescu: mme carolina orasan. she wasn't very good -- but she was studious and insistent, and i suppose perfectly fine for an orc. the others, even worse.
mircea_popescu: did i recount that incident when we were visiting england in a group (of 20+ people, including 3 professional english teachers) and teh stewardesses asked me to explain things to the rest (of the unruly orcs), back in early 90s ?
mircea_popescu: well, i guess i have the priviledge & advantage a) nobody dared beat me, sticks or otherwise coupled with b) was always better at english than anyone anyways.
a111: Logged on 2019-01-19 19:25 mircea_popescu: meanwhile in sad lulz, https://www.blacktowhite.net/threads/moving-away-from-cuckold-into-stag-vixen.146933/ ("Are people moving away? I'm noticing a shift in ads, profiles and websites that I browse. No one is really looking for a cuckold thing anymore. I got enthralled with the cuckold fantasy and I would love to meet a couple that was for it. But Cuckolds couples are hard to find. Couples, single females are easier but as
asciilifeform: innermost circle of quasiliteracy hell, i suspect, is when even mispelling not consistent
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 → " ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: 'extract of footstool' approx. i.e. 'this tastes as if it were made from old furniture'
mircea_popescu: i dunno that thing's anything anyone'd ever drink
mircea_popescu: https://i.ibb.co/162btrS/derpychick.jpg
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno, dood. she's just weirdlooking.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i suppose that nah's unclear. plenty cases before where "domme" goes all soft for me ; plenty of cases before where "um... actually looking at your pics... nevermind". and some cases before where these two met, but never before in 12 words or less.
BingoBoingo: I'd go out of my way to see a total solar eclipse again, very strong inducement of wonder. Lunar well... not so much
mircea_popescu: pretty sure it's partial here, and i'm on the wrong side of teh hill momentarily.
BingoBoingo: Well, I used a compass and a map to determine I didn't have to go anywhere special to see it and thus it was seen
a111: Logged on 2014-09-07 17:02 mircea_popescu: something like that. so one night while in here, i see movement in the corner of my eye
mircea_popescu: fat people can't find their feet ; but i'm so overweight i can't find my fucking stories.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i was looking for the story of the mouse chewing at the jar lid hole with his tiny teeth
mircea_popescu: i thought lasers didn't exist!
a111: Logged on 2014-08-30 23:24 mircea_popescu: i have a glass table and an optic mouse.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'll add it to the ask list when I make the rounds to the shops
asciilifeform: ( hunt on net, that is, not in BingoBoingostani junkyard , tho i'll be pleasantly surprised if it were to turn up ~there~ )
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'ma include a simple machine-readable ambient thermometer/hygrometer in the cargo, for good measure
mircea_popescu: vaguely reminescent of occasional fetard going "i don't know you" / occasional moron going "this trilema article is too long and complicated for my understander".
mircea_popescu: this is pretty fucking amusing to me, too. "oh, i don't understand the kids... and this is my problem". bitch... if i don't understand them i don't feed them, this "you don't understand me" is just about "tomorrow, i die", naught else. let them fucking work ass off to be understood, wtf, you want me to do it ?!
asciilifeform: hm i thought they could only grow where a similarly-porcine mother lives as 'office plankton' and prevents contact w/ reality
asciilifeform: i had nfi the species is found as far south as mircea_popescustan
mircea_popescu: but for instance i have standing orders for 0 tolerance and active harassment / belittling and sabotage of them by my girls, whenever encountered (which mostly is receptionists, but hey)
mircea_popescu: as it is... i dunno, i suspect they'll starve, orange man doesn't seem inclined to continue the slop.
asciilifeform: aha. and there aint a cure, any moar than for hydrocephalia. the ideal life outcome for these, is 'institutional' , the kind with shock collar, detonguing, short leash, i suspect.
mircea_popescu: so i guess i switched historical priviledge for social priviledge as i aged.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'm not even convinced there's an 'i' in that there crankcase that is capable of actually 'wanting' sumthing.
mircea_popescu: i do recall in youth was a lot less selective/priviledged, whichever way you look at it ; but somehow inexplicably stupidity not nearly as organised or militant in same youth. i mean, fuck, girls back then were ASHAMED to sit with the mainstream, jesus fuck.
BingoBoingo: "I like being treated like a princess and fucked like a slut." << The anglophone girl problem. They think they want to hold the power, but they know they want the power imposed on them when it counts.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this particular one entirely unfuckable, tiny tits an' a belly. but in general, idiots have ~no chance of making it through anyway, so can't say as i have.
asciilifeform: i gotta take off hat to mircea_popescu's strong stomach, i can't picture fucking these things even with ball gag. would almost rather juggle neutron reflectors.
asciilifeform: re 'somebody asked', i suspect that the correct physical model is that old toy ( do they still make'em ? ) with plastic phonograph roll inside, where you pull string and it 'speaks'
asciilifeform: i can't resist to ask, is this one sui generis or is 'financial domination' actual button on the fatlife dashboard thing nao.
mircea_popescu: i suppose you might enjoy the whole thing. http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/hYrat/?raw=true
mircea_popescu: meanwhile on the other side, "About me I love the X Files and Criminal Minds. I'm studying Cosmetology right now but next semester I am transferring to Psychology. "
asciilifeform: as i understand, usg dept. of wunderwaffen hasn't given'em robo-cranes yet, at that pt
mircea_popescu: by the time your evening's entertainment is screwdriver-juggling neutron reflectors, you've got some pretty serious pretentious issues going. i mean aestheticism is one thing, but by the time that's all that's left...
asciilifeform: i dun consider slotin et al to be shining examples to follow, but will also point out , that errybody dies eventually, and personally would rather chance to eat 100kV than to die of boredom sitting in a chair kanzure-style.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i was cured of this by chem instructor, who showed palm where glass pipe went clean through it when he was a lad
mircea_popescu: BUT I WAS THRITEEN
mircea_popescu: yeah... you know i used to do the old thumb-stopper thing... until i noticed i got spots.
asciilifeform: ( i suspect that current-day 'millenial' derps would shit their pants if they saw folx actually at work and the things that are done even nao )
mircea_popescu: i don't get why they can't simply use a mirror / scintillator / something.
