ben_vulpes: if you put
text in
the box and press
the button
the url params change
sina: mircea_popescu: I did look at V as you suggested, including reading
through (I
think it was) asciilifeform py impl
mircea_popescu: sina he does have a point --
this is a very fine op for you
to learn v
through practice. make a genesis for your
thang.
sina: ben_vulpes: what does
the update button do?
sina: ben_vulpes:
that's a bit nicer
mircea_popescu: silly argument being anything but "because it'll
take forever mp!"
mircea_popescu: but consider for a moment -- why should code be something else
than "words for all
time" ?
sina: blog in general is not conducive
to code, IMO anyway
mircea_popescu: the problem is management really. code keeps wanting
to be edited, comments on blog are a different
thing.
mircea_popescu: i can see it
though. heck, i actually indulge. whole candi
thing was nothing else.
mircea_popescu: your idea of fun
turns out problematioc for
the republic!
sina: I'm fine with git. I have a cgit
thing in my castle and also push
to github for public use
mircea_popescu has been
thinking...
this whole code in comments
thing dun werk wortha crap
ben_vulpes: "genesis" is argot for root of a patch
tree
ben_vulpes: or use your golang
thing and migrate a few years later like i did
ben_vulpes: sina: sensible
thing
to do is make a genesis of your shit, stand up an mp-wp and post it on your blog
☟︎ ben_vulpes: sina: i hope you appreciate
the bug-spottment as well lol
sina: which somehow includes a religious discussion on
the morality of returning mistakenly
transferred bitcoins, including King Solomon bible ref
a111: Logged on 2016-03-23 23:35 mircea_popescu: 2 requires
the man who just saw
the product of his not-inconsequential efforts die over "not doing what mp says, with money" have
to choose whether
to do what mp says... but with people,
this
time. we did in fact start
this channel
together, just like bitbet, and he did do a lot of infrastructure work here, just as
there. so... what do ?
sina: either
that or I can re-comment, you can delete
the old ones and
then fix whatever <pre> stuff you did last
time
mircea_popescu: holy shit im not diffing
tcoments by hand what is htis\
sina: i enjoy growing
tomatoes
too, but
these days cherry
tomatos mostly. hardy, prolific
sina: mircea_popescu: you may want
to update comments,
sina: python version updated
too
BingoBoingo: Hard
to
tell how
the good lord Bingo's plots will
turn out
this experiment
BingoBoingo has one plot
that stayed sunny and one
that has been eclipsed by
tree. Sunny plot doing great. One in
tree eclipse is experiencing stunted vine size, but greater fruiting at present.
ben_vulpes: i don't plan
to suboptimally anything
these beasts
BingoBoingo: I mean nature has a way and all
that, but... stakes make for cleaner fruit and a bett chance of you
taking
the first bit instead of vermin
BingoBoingo: You prolly should start on
that before
the flowers
turn
to fruit and get heavy
ben_vulpes: i may have
to put stakes in
the ground and hold
the damn
things up
ben_vulpes: these
things are going
to be monster bushes
ben_vulpes: ooh BingoBoingo
the
tomatoes have put forth flowers
sina: funsies was being able
to bang out a golang mpfhf because I had already kicked
the
tyres on
the lang
BingoBoingo: But
TMSR is it's own program for awakening
the spirit
sina: funsies was in figuring out how
to make a request pipeline out of handlers, or goroutines, etc
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: pretty sure my sojurn
through 12steplandia predates yours
jhvh1: 12. Having had a spiritual awakening as
the result of
these steps, we
tried
to carry
this message
to alcoholics, and
to practice
these principles in all our affairs.
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> sina: keep coming back, it works if you work it << lol,
this stuff is contagious
sina: generating 24 lines of html
template
took about 3 seconds
ben_vulpes: surely
this is something you can do on demand without
thinking already
ben_vulpes: i mean you're a smart guy, right? what's funsies about generating html
trees?
sina: I'm vaguely aware of
the shared context, I get
there is some stuff
that is considered dumb around
these neck of
the woods, I just don't care
sina: I follow everything you're saying, but it is plainly dumb
to say writing a funsies webapp
to learn a language has anything
to do with anything
sina: I
thought I had because I couldn't decrypt some OTP, if you recall
sina: ben_vulpes: I *didn't* lose
them
trinque: sina: dunno what you
thought
the forum was for, but
this
ben_vulpes: sina: and before you start
throwing around words like "drivel" and "braindead", i'm not
the one who lost his keys.
sina: that explains
this braindead discussion
ben_vulpes: sina: gotta
talk
to folks, gotta share
text
sina: ben_vulpes: I'll listen
to
this drivel when you
take down your blog
ben_vulpes: every
time a child gets another hint
that building
things in html is a sensible way
to spend a life, an angel of freedom loses her wings and plummets screaming
towards
the ground
☟︎ ben_vulpes: sina: surely you see how universal reliance on
the browser drives unthinking acceptance of
the imperial key signing model, right?
BingoBoingo: Anyways, what happened
to your romantic feelings for flat six? Is flat six less sexy when it sends all of it's power
to one wheel?
sina: ben_vulpes: still not following, but
that's ok, you explained your
train of
thought
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo:
two wheeled endangerment does much for feelings engenderment, it's
true, but not only way
to skin
testicles.
trinque: "not everything is political" and "I just want
to"
sina: ben_vulpes: I didn't claim it did,
the point is,
taking your logic
to its conclusion one can't do anything because google uses computers
to do stuff
BingoBoingo: And lets not forget bonus horsepower like feelings engendered by feeling
the wind on one's
testicles
ben_vulpes: sina: math does not require xml, drop
the sophistry.
sina: careful, browsers rely on numbers, don't want
to further google hegemony
BingoBoingo: sina: Consider
the experiment where you learned
trading by "seeding
the orderbook"
The "at scale" business is similar.
ben_vulpes: million billion
toy projects
that do not entail even
touching webshit.
ben_vulpes: implement stephenson's orbital swarm
trajectory planner?
ben_vulpes: sina: it's a google product, you're "learning
the lang" via writing a weblog
that most likely generates html for...the browser. google lives by
the browser.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: But still greater potential power
to
thrust ratio!
trinque not
trying
to pile on, but "I can stuff at scale" is entertaining as shit
sina: because I
think it's a pretty nice high level language
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: what, "european by alliance" cars nao ? << well, ghosn stepped down as nissan ceo so whatever bridge
there was is burnt. now it's
turbomowereich because nothing cheats nazi emissions standards quite like 'em.
ben_vulpes: oh i
thought you were like a golang professional or some such
sina: how does building a webapp
to learn golang further
the browser hegenomy?!
ben_vulpes: what, you're going
to spend your precious energy furthering
the browser hegemony?
ben_vulpes: there's a fork of some fraction of what drives
trilema floating around
the wot
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo suggests honda goldwing 'valkyrie' for pete_dushenski's next mid life crisis << nah,
too "soaking up
the open road". goldwings are for retired vagabonds with a penchant for leather chaps and 60s rock. sort of a post-life-crisis-mobile really.
sina: that (and
the dependency hell it introduces) is why I
try and stick
to
their impressively comprehensive stdlib
ben_vulpes: yeah
that "go build" shit pulling in rando code from rando github accounts super great cool stuff
sina: they mostly write
their junk in C++ and java from what I hear
sina: just because Rob Pike and co work at
the goog doesn't mean golang is goog
sina: ben_vulpes: have pushed updated ver
to golang ver, let me figure out same for python
sina: its cool, I had it correct
to begin with, but I modified it
to match
the
thing I was seeing, my bad
