mircea_popescu: prime target for pantsuit shenanigans ; i expect a lot of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-01#1877139 going on. because otherwise, very much a problem of http://trilema.com/2016/give-computers-the-vote-theyre-cheaper-than-women-even/ ☝︎
asciilifeform: ( loox like i was wrong re what the subj of thread was; thought it was a js layer lib )
asciilifeform: there were other 'headless browsers'; i've used 'selenium' in particular (~8 or so yrs ago), it worked (then)
mircea_popescu: we have a hole in the process here, where bash existence is not === browser existence. phantomjs used to fill it, or at least mostly, or so i thought.
mircea_popescu: you're not even parsing what i'm saying here.
asciilifeform: 1 possible move is instead from 'a' to 'c', i.e. to entirely new, sane stack, where e.g. sexprs instead of htmlolade and 'scheme' subset instead of jsolade.
asciilifeform: i.e. 1 of those http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-25#1866191 warcrimes ? ☝︎
billymg: sorry for the slow pace, i'm still learning a lot as i go
billymg: i will look at http://barksinthewind.com/2018/vpy-updated-for-vtools/ for a new version
billymg: yeah, i think i'm using a keccak version vdiff for creating the patch, but attempting to press with a sha v.py
billymg: i pressed from the `vtools_ksum` patch http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=vtools&search=
billymg: diana_coman: my understanding was that as long as i created the vpatch with a keccak-compatible vdiff then the hashes would be consistent with genesis and it would be ok. this assumption came from me being able to press vtools and mp-wp with my current v.py (grabbed from the link in the trb setup guide)
bvt: billymg: i assume v.py pressed genesis, started checking hashes and errored out before applying next vpatch (with your changes).
billymg: yeah, i've been dragging my feet on that (although the vpatch itself was created with a keccak vdiff tool). will update and report back
billymg: if i*
billymg: i'll do some more debugging, and also grab a newer v.py, and see i can get it working
billymg: ok, updated and it now presses but when i inspect the resulting directory the changes aren't there (it also came with an error i saw before on genesis, about a file's hash not matching expected -- i assumed this was because my v.py is pre-keccak)
bvt: i.e. in hanbot genesis, there is a/mp-wp/manifest, while in your vpatch a/manifest
billymg: diana_coman: i loaded the necessary files into the patches/ .seals/ .wot directory structure and ran them through v.py (exact steps here: http://billymg.com/2018/10/the-complete-noobs-guide-to-setting-up-mp-wp-on-a-pizarro-rock-chip-server/)
diana_coman: billymg, sounds good; when you say genesis I assume you mean http://btcbase.org/patches/mp-wp_genesis ; correct?
billymg: diana_coman: i made a copy of the directory that came from pressing the genesis (keeping the original), made my changes, then diffed the two directories
a111: Logged on 2018-11-12 20:25 bvt: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-12#1871478 << fixing/replacing the theme is on my todo list, however i still haven't fixed all the problems in wp-admin (png/jpg vs svg), so work on the theme will have to wait a bit.
bvt: billymg: i fixed the links to the images manually, working over version rolled out by BingoBoingo (http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-12#1871585) ☝︎
billymg: it could also be my v.py, although i was able to press vtools and mp-wp genesis fine with it
billymg: i created the vpatch diff with vdiff pressed from vtools_ksum
mircea_popescu: because i recall a similar problem in ~old~ vtrons
a111: Logged on 2018-12-27 18:03 billymg: i created a vpatch for http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-22#1865184 < http://billymg.com/downloads/mp-wp_add-footnotes-and-textselectionjs.vpatch http://billymg.com/downloads/mp-wp_add-footnotes-and-textselectionjs.vpatch.billymg.sig however i am having trouble pressing it myself
billymg: i do however still need to figure out why i can't press http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-27#1883342 -- before i can create new patches. if anyone has time to take a look or suggest debug tips i'd much appreciate it ☝︎
asciilifeform: trinque: i dun expect that part will require very much sweat
trinque: once off that, I might see about ebuilding trb (with perhaps phf's v+portage work if it surfaces), and then mircea_popescu's gns v-tree, unless gpg replacement surfaces soon, in which case deedbot->peh work
billymg: hanbot: if you like i could make and test a patch to submit for review
billymg: hanbot: going by the vpatch i found here http://thewhet.net/2018/06/mp-wp-genesis-regrind/ or http://btcbase.org/data/mp-wp/ the file does seem to contain a few references to e.g. .jpg.svg, .png.svg
BingoBoingo: billymg: I just made my theme by deleting stuff from the default and occasionally adding text particular to what I want from my blog.
billymg: i also found out why e.g. http://bimbo.club is missing some background images, opposed to e.g. http://bvt-trace.net (and this was the original reason i went in to tweak the css)
asciilifeform: ( i dun recall where , if anywhere, he got stuck )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: fwiw i have the thing written ( and iirc even posted, 'unofficially' ), but it will take some sweat to properly glue & test.
diana_coman: i.e. first strips everything and then applies what it's meant to be
asciilifeform: ftr it may even be possible to write a reasonably-performant ecctron in 'p'. i cannot currently say.
asciilifeform: ( unless, i suppose, somebody else here wants to stand up and eat it, and write ecctron )
asciilifeform: at some point i'ma have to seriously dig into eccism, to date i've moar or less successfully avoided it, spat on it
asciilifeform: for ~3 fucking yrs i was convinced that it spends cpu in sig verify; turned out - nope
asciilifeform: will note, even with the heap fragging nonsense, current trb has quite reasonable ram footprint; e.g. i run 'zoolag' on a 2GB box, and never manually reset aside from when deploying patch (coupla times in past yr)
asciilifeform: then, i suppose, blox fell reasonably often into its open mouth.
mircea_popescu: speaking of penalties : i dusted off ancient trb (pre agression), just for curiosity. turns out it sucks ~1 block/minute in the 450k range (ie, catches up with a year's chain per month, sorta thing).
billymg: once i get the flow down and get this first patch working it will be easy to create more patches
billymg: also i should note that i didn't include the css changes to the default theme in this patch because i thought a user might want to add one but not the other
billymg: the signature verifies, and i believe i have the diff and manifest syntax correct, but i'm getting the "not found in flow" error
a111: Logged on 2018-10-22 21:26 billymg: what if i submitted a vpatch that adds the js-text-selection feature and the few lines of CSS to the "default" theme in mp-wp (blue header one)?
billymg: i created a vpatch for http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-22#1865184 < http://billymg.com/downloads/mp-wp_add-footnotes-and-textselectionjs.vpatch http://billymg.com/downloads/mp-wp_add-footnotes-and-textselectionjs.vpatch.billymg.sig however i am having trouble pressing it myself ☝︎☟︎
billymg: hi all, this past week i've been able to take advantage of the holiday vacation time to get a local workbench set up. i now have a proper gnat so was able to build phf's vdiff. i also have my blog running locally which makes it a lot easier to work on and test changes
mircea_popescu: come hell or high water, i'd rather manage my own household than whatever it is, nbc's movie arm, holcim's european sales, romania's only battleship or only central bank, WHATEVER it is -- if it comes with a "but must have some idiot" coda i'd rather fucking manage my household.
mircea_popescu: i looked far and wide, among practically an ocean of more committed, seriouser etc folk. and so on.
mircea_popescu: you got me there, and while in these irons i guess i'll also confess it was my plan all along, back in 2012, to find some lukewarm half-invested dood to do bitcoin-assets.
asciilifeform: 'how much should i spend to retain sober bulldozerist' is just as much of a ev calc as 'how much iron to use in this here bridge' neh.
mircea_popescu: tbh, i empatized with the ~warehouse manager~.
asciilifeform: i'd watch 1 or 2.
mircea_popescu: i want to see some idiot "avoiding certain death in midget sub" throiugh the process of flailing around wildly and then dying mechanically about as much as i want a pile of sophomore history of philosophy extemporaneous essay-form papers to go through.
mircea_popescu: i dunno that i could be bothered.
mircea_popescu: or you know, https://i.giphy.com/media/r0WlG500KT1T2/giphy.gif
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ~same folx been eatin' it ever since. tastes, reportedly ( asciilifeform did not have occasion to try, but father -- did , for some reason it ended up in orcistan ) like low-grade beef. << From what I've heard aquatic mammals tend to have a flavor distinct from beef. This may differ for full oceanic mammals, but river dolphins are a thing.
asciilifeform: nah i dun mean on comp
mircea_popescu: i'm sure you can find sokoban.
asciilifeform: horrors!111, all the 'culture' i missed...
asciilifeform: i thought 'crisis' is what the local derps spew when their national horse finally goes to glue
mircea_popescu: i guess mid-tangerine term they're going for the "orc again" angle.
mircea_popescu: i recall back in the late days of bahamas all sorta orclands had large posters with local ugly morons "el negro puede!!!"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as i understand there's always been a 'dollar' (in the sense of best-looking-horse at fiatola glue factory) at any given time
mircea_popescu: how the fuck is the figuring go, "all the kids are healthy and fine, spend all time in school, and as a result every year i'm worth more" ?! more the fuck what, obviously there's more and more people who can do his job by virtue of women spawning and fewer and fewer people who need his job done, by virtue of his having been at work.
diana_coman: I can see the strong in mine; what did you put in there exactly?
BingoBoingo: bvt: ran the chown, let me know if there are any issues or if there is anything else I can help with
BingoBoingo: bvt: I'll peek in real quick
mircea_popescu: (i did have to fish it out of spam, not right off sure what combination of what exactly triggered it, but anyway)
a111: Logged on 2018-12-26 20:19 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-26#1883106 << honestly, this is a better "decorative artwork" plan than i ~ever~ heard. and i heard girls with nice tits sitting on multi-mn budgets all over "teh civilised world".
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-26#1883211 << lol, it'll hang where the jp hiragana thing previously did ( the latter i have fit-in-head, dunneed nomoar.. ) ☝︎
mod6: Awesome Sir. I'll check back later then. Thanks all.
mod6: Oh while I'm at it, thanks for helping mats the other day while I was afk. I appreciate it.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-26 14:53 asciilifeform: plan with the mega-photo, is that -- when i figure out how to stitch'em -- will make metre-sized poster for wall, to scribble on as i reverse the thing...

a111: Logged on 2018-12-26 13:08 diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-25#1882987 -> my tests show that you can rely on <strong> </strong> for it to show in bold (b, em seem to be eaten); in further infuriating things, <blockquote> works but ONLY if used on separate line (i.e. this is a <blockquote>bbw </blockquote> will do nothing but this is a \n <blockquote>biegw</blockquote ...works
BingoBoingo: I'm about to send the dispatches to current customers
mod6: BingoBoingo: Can I get a wp-mp @ pizarro when you have some time, feel free to invoice me or whatever is right and proper.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-26 13:02 diana_coman: at any rate, the fact that the summaries seem to elicit further discussion and clarification of the original topics is further benefit (I did not expect it / think of it at all initially)
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-26#1883097 << i was kinda expecting it all along, tbh. ☝︎
mod6: One is nearly ready, but I'm in need of an actual blog, heheh. So I'm gonna see if I can get wp-mp doing what I want.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-26 12:58 diana_coman: perhaps unsurprisingly, the relative lengths of logs are not quite enough to predict relative lengths of summaries, ofc; the 10-16 dec summary is a whopping 5.1k compared to 3.7k 26-2Dec despite logs being 31.3k vs 54.4k respectively; anyways, I'm rather relieved it turns out that the summary IS at least shorter than the logs!
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-26#1883094 << do i have this right, so the logs were ~43% shorter but this drove a summary ~37% longer ? ie, snr varied by at least a factor of 2.4 ? ☝︎
mod6: Anyway, I just stopped in as I've been resting, reflecting, doing a spot of work on these forthcoming blog posts over the month.
mod6: Cool, yeah, I hear ya there. We smoked a ham, was pretty great actually.
mircea_popescu: well, the paste was deliberate, but i'd have deliberated otherwise if i realised it's multiline

mircea_popescu: romanians are tards, what can i tell you
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i guarantee you that schmuck had a large debt load to maintain his illusion of being "in civilised world" along with occasional participation at "color revolutions" and various idiotic conversations with similarily inane "friends".
asciilifeform: i saw one in ro, in the back of a parked car
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform all guy fawkes masks i ever saw were evidently same exact item made same exact place.
mircea_popescu: and in this case, i suppose china's maintaining.
asciilifeform: made from junkyardwars. but i dun recall him claiming continuity with historic-anyffin
mircea_popescu: i suppose the bare truth of the matter is that much like bower bird building nest out of what plastic can be found, ustard also, will be fashionable ~out of pre-existing selection~, not otherwise.
mircea_popescu: i'd have expected a LOT more orange plasticrap masks.
