asciilifeform: ( and on the other end of the digestive tract -- inlining. i'ma quite certainly issue a v-branch that removes inlining, on microcontroller it typically wins 0 , while making 100x bulkier bin )
asciilifeform: 1 of the reasons i wrote the series with the 'and here we have egypt', 'and now we remove egypt', etc. is specifically to show 'well you can cut 1000 ln here if you're ok with 500x longer run times' , i can picture applications where one might want this
asciilifeform: ( ffa has 0 deps outside of gnat itself and system character i/o, currently posix's )
a111: Logged on 2017-07-08 03:49 asciilifeform: i just counted gpg 1.4.10 : 156,436 loc -- and that ain't counting the autoconf liquishit, or the libs it pulls in
Mocky: I got my first "so burned i'm peeling" in 2018, 3 hours on motorcycle in tank top mid day, late june.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-29 18:15 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-29#1875978 << fuck sunlight, i spent hours in the tropically warm bay waters slutwrestling, i am so burned i'm peeling.
mircea_popescu: and i bet you they're STILL going around pretending.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-29 17:10 Mocky: in truth i do feel like idjit for being old man without the brains to have saved anything. i don't even have a workshop full of shit like asciilifeform

asciilifeform: i have nfi what they get, for all i know 'wall street' is 100% microshit-excel powered even now.
mircea_popescu: iirc i reviewed a typical example.
mircea_popescu: back in the days of pam grier's youth, her brother going "i'm black. i don't dance. i don't athlete. i don't sing. wtf should i do ?!" was kind-of a joke. now though...
mircea_popescu: i meant re the bottle. your "boss" will take you "partying" at approved venues etc.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-29 17:00 asciilifeform: Mocky: i've even worked in a salt mine where the bottle was Officially (i shit thee not) issued, erry friday at noon.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-29 16:48 Mocky: i'm convinced this whole ecosystem of outside recruiters is 100% byproduct of startup "investing" that props up the illusion of "high growth" companies that burn thru cash by hiring people so they will qualify for more money
a111: Logged on 2018-11-29 16:43 Mocky: this is why i worked for the same company for 14 years, i hate this shit. but also what made me soft target for their betrayal
a111: Logged on 2018-11-29 16:42 Mocky: so many damn recruiters. they're like mosquitos in a swamp. they all want to 'have a call' and then 'a skype' 'see if you'll be a good fit'. ugh. two years out of college with a degree in hr, you're gonna decide if i'm worthy to be submitted for a job, and then pressure me to take low ball offer.
mircea_popescu: i was like... lolok.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-29#1875954 << whole shitshow runs like that, "open ended", to make the most of "moneyed". i recall back when i was looking at shooting lawsky imbecile in the head, had brief discussion with "legitimate" new york "detective agency". ☝︎
Mocky: as long as I still had kids at home, never tried to get out
Mocky: i can't even complain, i ended up with exactly what I wanted as a 20yo, "write software, have a lot of kids"
Mocky: in truth i do feel like idjit for being old man without the brains to have saved anything. i don't even have a workshop full of shit like asciilifeform ☟︎☟︎☟︎
Mocky: I interviewed with a job once that offered "unlimited paid time off" but inside reports were that anyone who tried to use was instantly on the shit list
asciilifeform: Mocky: i've even worked in a salt mine where the bottle was Officially (i shit thee not) issued, erry friday at noon. ☟︎

a111: Logged on 2018-11-20 03:38 mircea_popescu: i have nfi, it's pretty fucking lulzy though. i mean, there's a long list of these defeateds by "fate", but he's one of the most hysterically humiliated humbugs.
asciilifeform: presumably they've introduced some new demented syntax for integer divides ? i have nfi, and could not be arsed to find out.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-29#1875930 << hilariously, i recently tried to run a simple numeric proggy on a box infested with python3 , and found that it utterly breaks the numeric stack : once you do e.g. x = x / 3 you can no longer e.g. x >> 1 -- because the / converted it to 'float' ! holy mother of fuck. ☝︎
asciilifeform: spyked: if you're interested in arm64ifying cuntoo, i recommend to begin with rk.
asciilifeform: spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-08#1848779 was where i stopped last. ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-29#1875935 << last i knew , there were still a coupla open problems re actually using that box ( in particular, i did not yet succeed, and presently haven't the time to continue, in baking a bootloader for it that loads non-googlistic kernels ) ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-11-27 19:12 mircea_popescu: i imagine that'll be spyked's next thing, bot-driven vtrees mirror service.
spyked: re pm feeds: if no one objects to this, just gpg me a list of the feeds and the recipients and I'll add them manually.
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-27#1875118 <-- point well taken. my schedule is still a bit erratic at the moment, so what do you think about making the switch on monday (3rd dec)? I'll be tuned in starting cca 6pm utc. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: Mocky these schmucks i swear...
BingoBoingo: I miss the belt fed toaster from my first place of employment
BingoBoingo: Nah, I think I forgot to ping trinque that my blog rebuilt completed with success
a111: Logged on 2018-11-28 01:31 mircea_popescu: i never heard before of some guy who CAN live independently, moving to rural shithole to not be bothered, and then having ~same to show for a year of his life as mod6. at least that dood is holding down a job and a coupla kids meanwhile.
asciilifeform: Mocky: funnily enuff, they dun always bother to mention. i get spam calls erry week, where d00d pitches 'x,y,z,exactly what you do,come work for us' 'ts/sci ?' 'of course' ~click~
asciilifeform: trinque: i suspect was moar of a 'plug embrasure of pillbox' idea than 2waymission
asciilifeform: ( i expect they used it as clock & address latch generator )
a111: Logged on 2018-11-28 19:44 asciilifeform: !Q later tell phf turns out i was wrong re the rom, the rom-shaped object is actually a 1980s 'programmable event timer' thingie, am2971adc
Mocky: mircea_popescu, BingoBoingo re wires #1 and #2 that I sent: #1 came back 'cancelled' after 3 days, #2 went to 'completed' after 1 day. I retried #1 (less 1 dollar) and it now is 'completed' after 1 day. BingoBoingo can you verify if actually arrived at bank?
mircea_popescu: i think these are remnants from like 2014.
mircea_popescu: amusingly, average income payment is 4 digits, keks. i'd be sending what, 1k x wjhat they make ? roflmao.
mircea_popescu: 0fb6460fcb88a0fbdc85d4f3b9505e69814ceacb3effd20b427d1b8d5689094e / 09c078a4040b1a044dc654e005bcc8b4c23523393d5244fd9c47408968555640 i see mempool txn right now. ☟︎
asciilifeform: !Q later tell phf turns out i was wrong re the rom, the rom-shaped object is actually a 1980s 'programmable event timer' thingie, am2971adc ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: i do.
asciilifeform: !Q later tell phf i did finally turn up a high-res (enuff to read the ic labels) shot of ivory2; http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ivory2.jpg << mirrored. ☟︎
asciilifeform: if i end up doing the job with own hands, it'll be with mircea_popescu's method, i dun have electron microscope or the floor space to erect one
mircea_popescu: if you say i believe. anyway, above described approach really should be the standard. if it isn't / until it is, i'd say premature to decap ivories.
asciilifeform: 'ivory' is somewhat unique case, imho, i dun expect to ever run across another 1980s item that even begins to merit this treatment.
asciilifeform: if this were a moneyed proj, i'd go straight to the electronists
mircea_popescu: not like it costs anything. though-- i expect the software doesn't actually exist.
asciilifeform: there's a standard microscope for this, i had one when i used fluorescent markers in meat work
mircea_popescu: (on the source, i mean).
mircea_popescu: ty, but have some crown jewels. what am i, the inca here ? http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-10#1613027 and all that ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: btw i'd kinda like to give those ivories to mircea_popescu for safekeep, if he agrees ( they're pocket-sized, so not 'pogo crate' )
a111: Logged on 2018-11-28 15:44 amberglint: hopefully he won't lose interest if I make him go through the standard procedure here
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-28#1875700 << really, a lot cheaper to make a decapper than to make another ivory. so i rather hope he does lose interest, if he's the sort of http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-04#1839459 retard. ☝︎☝︎
asciilifeform: then again i personally have nfi what % ran and what % 'spreading worx'
a111: Logged on 2018-04-13 20:10 zx2c4: mircea_popescu: this article is about making a company right? i'm not doing that. im just writing painstaking careful code and giving it to the world for free
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i for instance prolly good for three or four hangings, simply on what's in the l0gz ☟︎
BingoBoingo: I suspect USG is going to try pushing some power ranger to an ethereum type "evil address" fork
asciilifeform: ( for n00bz -- racking an actual bolix is afaik a nonstarter -- the remaining units lack not only the requisite 24/7 reliability / component life , but also any means to cleanly wash the whore between customers, the way i do with e.g rk )
phf: asciilifeform: that's for the logs, i just thought it was a particularly goofy picture
asciilifeform: yes i know who he is.
phf: there's a few photos that i took, but they are somewhere in the pile
asciilifeform: i also suspect that this experiment will need the contents of whatever's in those roms on the ivory3
phf: busywait, cadr particularly is full of it. and yes reliance on particular cpu timing. i suspect there's a limited amount of it, but enough to make fast emulation buggy
asciilifeform: phf: i'm hoping i dun have to wait another full year for those docs...
asciilifeform: i also suspect that there is coad that won't work without ~cycle-accurate~ copy of the cpu ( the periodic barfage of the 'official' emulator suggests this -- did they use empty loop delays in place of mutexes, or what, i do not yet know )
phf: asciilifeform: before you agree to a decap, give me some more time to get you the docs, maybe they'll be enough to get things going. i'd hate to lose an ivory to get some pretty but useless pictures, i'd rather it fry on a breadboard in the process of directed discovery ☟︎☟︎
amberglint: good, I'll try to guide him here
asciilifeform: if this were any other ic, i'd say 'gift horse', but in this case 'sapper errs once' ( or , i suppose, twice.. )
amberglint: I mentioned in the email that the chip is 1uM, he did not object
asciilifeform: also that signetics is iirc a 3.5uM process. i dunno if he ever did a 1uM die
amberglint: haven't asked that yet, but he did transcribe a ROM so I guess he has higher res ones
amberglint: I understand
asciilifeform: simply, they're ~priceless rembrandts, and i'd rather not send one to a d00d sight-unseen
asciilifeform: i believe
amberglint: he did a lot of decappings, so I think he's not too bad
amberglint: "I do have to warn that although I’ve had very good luck decapping chips and getting pictures, I have had some failures and there is always the possibility that I could damage the chip so badly that pictures would not be useful."
amberglint: hopefully he won't lose interest if I make him go through the standard procedure here ☟︎
asciilifeform: i only got 2 ivories, they're a nonrenewable resource
amberglint: asciilifeform: I think I can
amberglint: I wrote him an email, and he said he'd be happy to do it
amberglint: asciilifeform: I found someone who can decap your Ivory: http://www.seanriddle.com/decap.html

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-28#1875663 << btw, ftr i was apparently wrong about this : there's a single solitary comment from the d00d on some shithub somewhere, from ~week ago. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-11-28 01:04 danielpbarron: i would like to be as productive in my free time as i used to be in my professional life
asciilifeform: 'child shrink' racket created, or so i hear, '9000' exciting new diseases
asciilifeform: trinque: hrm, i thought he took it up as grown man
asciilifeform: trinque: lulzily, i recently looked at the https://github.com/gabriel-laddel/masamune thing : lo and behold, 'Latest commit b7332fe on Apr 6, 2017' << prolly d00d is truly dead ☟︎
trinque: wanton use of the declarative cuts both ways. this internalized "because bible, full stop" can just as easily "because on my ass is what I do, full stop".
danielpbarron: i'm not going to give up hope
mircea_popescu: i never heard before of some guy who CAN live independently, moving to rural shithole to not be bothered, and then having ~same to show for a year of his life as mod6. at least that dood is holding down a job and a coupla kids meanwhile. ☟︎
danielpbarron: you're right, i need to do what i say
