diana_coman newton -> einstein is precisely changing a set of lies for a better set of lies. world dun work as physics says, nor ever did. however -- better lies work better.

diana_coman: to my mind that's precisely the thing: it's not (or not only) that "screaming meat" but the fact that at the end of it, it's only a replacement with what is in fact an inferior, not a superior thing
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman sure, why not. for the same money could just blame god tho.

diana_coman: with the added bonus that Ibraileanu in 1909 cites from the same piece of Caragiale (Politica si cultura) with the comment that Caragiale was the most acerbic critic of... "liberalism" (the quotations marks are Ibraileanu's) that is further explained as "partidul <<ros>>" aka the red party.

diana_coman: 'didn't get to the part where it gets better' << this is the distinct impression i get . and i suspect on acct of the shoemaker being soft.

diana_coman: ftr funnily enough precisely fish was very much missing from ro diet to such extent that yes, there were slogans "nici o masa fara peste"
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman there were two major earthquakes in romania : nov 1940, and march 1977.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman yes, useful and durable. romania got a hidro power structure, for instance. the reason it even has power today.

diana_coman: and that's valid for the 1000 bakeries too; I suppose one can argue that it's still an achievement to have bakeries with no bread than to have no bakeries and stale bread but I don't buy it; and note that in the 80's the latest brightest idea (in the same vein, all hail!) was to further do this sort of great "improvement", to wit the communal "neighbourhood kitchen" to get rid of such waste as having individual kitchens in every hruscheba
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman the point of the discussion, though, is to not end up accidentally banning shitting just because ceausescu was known to shit.

diana_coman: this is where i admit that it is above my paygrade to say just how 'maybe without shoemaker, less worse and shorter' . if there's a way to keep neighbours from turning yer congo into a resource extraction base without marching peasants at gunpoint to city and having'em stand in front of lathes to make kalashes, i do not know it

diana_coman but ~which people~ ? whole point of industrialization is moving from the traditional to the modern. is the idea that ceausescu is somehow personally responsible for the fact ?

diana_coman what ended up being the problem then, i'm not getting something here.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman well, apparently it expects to be called with a bitstream, which is a peculiarly inconvenient datastruct in practice.
mircea_popescu: bflame how about you make yourself useful and implement a keccak as discussed ^ then patch
diana_coman 's tree with it.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman i mean that instead of keccak receiving array of bits stored in octets, keccak receives (and processes) a eucomms field.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman do you see the wisdom in implementing a keccak variant that uses
eucomms-style fields ? so that something like "hello world" would be passed as 0x01146865 6c6c6f77 6f726c64
mircea_popescu: phf pretty sure that's the wrong version of it ? iirc there was also a keccak that didn't explode ?
diana_coman ?

diana_coman: there oughta be a cuntoo/portage dir inside the build dir

diana_coman: hm, if it's indeed the tmp thing, it might be worth a try to press vtools to current leaf (i.e. vtools_tempfile_standalone or _notmp) and see if that cures it; my archive contains pressed vtools to ksum patch only, not further
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman see, if it is broken code, then it just eats all stack available. but i suspect here code is sound, demand on stack defensibly large.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman try it with the megastack size from before, calling tests ?

diana_coman, other folks that have cuntooed, can y'all confirm that the paths that ended up in your genesis.vpatch do not in fact exist? I'd like you to reproduce the commands starting at line 114 of scripts/make_portage_tree.sh in your build directories, i.e. cd ~/src/cuntoo/build/cuntoo and then run them, as root

diana_coman: in other unwanted discoveries: on trying to compile the whole server on the sjlj-gnat I got a bunch of undefined symbol for unwind_sjlj_raiseexception ; anyone knows about this?
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman make a post once you fix it, with the list of what / how you fixed.
mircea_popescu:
diana_coman isn't it how it always goes... most of the "internet population" populating (by its own lights) the place sports a life expectancy insufficient to justify the genetic outlay of the average mouse.
mircea_popescu: but afaik this hasn't been seriously tried since
diana_coman did it.
