mircea_popescu: this readily enforces the two restraings we want enforced, which is : a) wot restricted and b) signed permanently.
mircea_popescu: the biggest headache to date for jurov/users of ml seems to have been the mailing itself. i wonder how much sense simply deedbotting messages would make. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: but the other one no ?

mircea_popescu: with her there holding my hand
mircea_popescu: ~I~ applied the diffs.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not even sure the pile was worse.
mircea_popescu: i dunno how you folks understand code otherwise, might be that i'm rusty or inept, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: in fact, if you ask diana_coman, she recently delivered a bot for eulora client, and i had her make me diffs.
mircea_popescu: i didn't care for that.
mircea_popescu likes, perhaps irrationally, the patch format
mircea_popescu: as opposed to what ?
mircea_popescu: i have nfi how come it doesn't exist. must be a switch
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually a hashed diff / patch-util is a must irrerspective of anything else.
mircea_popescu: jurov i dun see why it would be

mircea_popescu: gimme the mechanics, lemme worry about the people.
mircea_popescu: sure.
mircea_popescu: and i know this can be done because it's how fucking viruses work. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: and the only time i hear of any peep from the entire shebang is when one of them has gone over and i need to come in here and start with the !rate -10
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform here's what i want to accomplish, as a goal : i want to be able to put up a linux system, then go curl http://trilema.com/autobitcoin.sh | gpg -verify > autobitcoin.sh. and then run that autobitcoin.sh, which auto-follows the changes of people i have selected for this task, builds them and runs them ☟︎
mircea_popescu: (reason is that stuff's written once, read many times)

mircea_popescu: this is where im headed. have the syntax as a burden ON THE WRITER
mircea_popescu: ^
mircea_popescu: jurov what if the only way to add an edit is "deedbot pastebin/soandso" ?
mircea_popescu: than the ml

mircea_popescu: can't see why not.
mircea_popescu: changes, in the history tree - all signed.
mircea_popescu: which lists everything
mircea_popescu: ie, all things we do have a "current page"
mircea_popescu: question : what if we ran this to look more like a wiki than a mailing list ?
mircea_popescu: lemme state apropos of nothing that if you blame people for process not only are you an incredibly bad manager, but your organisation will fail, and in so doing give everyone a sigh of relief.
mircea_popescu: and the last we heard of davout he was told exactly the same, and for all i know he's fallen in there never to be heard from again
