mod6: mircea_popescu: Can I get your opinion on this quick regarding the Charter for Pizarro?
asciilifeform: ( iirc mircea_popescu in 2013 used phrase 'nintendo for crypto' )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i thought you already had one of these tho. the dos lappy.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman signed it, what r u talking ?
asciilifeform: while i have a few min on the clock : attn folx : there are 7 unsold FG units in my inventory; of which 6 are currently installed in snsa boxen waiting for their day in the rack; this leaves 1 'bachelor' FG. if someone wishes to buy this one, talk to mircea_popescu for where to pay.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: appreciate the continued scrutiny, will respond tomorrow
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes the saga continues (and also, you have what looks like a stranded > right after the "leave your comment" heading)

ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: statement amended, questions addressed
a111: Logged on 2018-03-01 20:01 phf: diana_coman: i was also getting some boundary issues with different bitrate issues, i couldn't figure out if it can take any natural value, or there's some specifica subranges that i have to stick to. when i spot checked with values like 1200 (or whatever), it would fail deep inside absorbblock. i'll test it again not that i have a bit of free time and see if i can reproduce

a111: Logged on 2018-03-01 18:01 ben_vulpes: having worked to memorize the bot keycombos for some time now, i would particularly like it if they would respond to their names. this approach autocompletes for one and is far more easily visually diffed, for another.

a111: Logged on 2018-03-01 17:59 ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu diana_coman: my mistake, the box is not raid5 compatible, it can do raid1 and raid10. is this okay and do you have a preference between the two?
a111: Logged on 2018-03-01 17:56 ben_vulpes: shinohai: is this an "it works now" or "you did it wrong" sort of thing. fwiw i expect the former in the form of "it was broken because of X, i did Y to fix it, and Z to prevent it from happening again" not that you're my direct report or anything
diana_coman: Keccak_Rate is a subrange itself
diana_coman: phf, the bitrate has to be less than the total capacity (it should fail however earlier since the Keccak_Rate type is limited correctly)
phf: diana_coman: i was also getting some boundary issues with different bitrate issues, i couldn't figure out if it can take any natural value, or there's some specifica subranges that i have to stick to. when i spot checked with values like 1200 (or whatever), it would fail deep inside absorbblock. i'll test it again not that i have a bit of free time and see if i can reproduce ☟︎
diana_coman: that Hash was the very first attempt, taking To_C and To_Ada at face value
diana_coman: and it sometimes stops too soon, basically it fails to copy everything ( this is To_Ada but To_C was even more hairy)
phf: http://btcbase.org/patches/eucrypt_ch10_oaep_tmsr/tree/eucrypt/smg_keccak/smg_oaep.adb#L29 http://btcbase.org/patches/vdiff_keccak/tree/vtools/src/keccak_c.adb#L63
phf: diana_coman: take a look at my recent code for ada/c interop. i've not read your C code closely, but i think you might be missing Trim_Nul => False/Append_Nul => False on your to_c to to_ada, which would trigger sporadic exceptions in the interface code
diana_coman: calling from C something that might look like this in ada: procedure getstring(input: in Interfaces.C.char_array; Output out Interfaces.C.char_array)
diana_coman: ave1, my current solution is to pass the length as a separate parameter indeed and in addition to actually copy octet by octet; To_C and To_Ada still fail me on occasion so I can't really rely on them - this might be of course because I don't fully understand them yet; in any case, please write it up, pretty please
a111: Logged on 2018-02-28 15:57 mircea_popescu: ave1 you should ; also read through the eucrypt thing, ima (for instance) need someone to package it into a cmd line gpg replacement as soon as next wek.

a111: Logged on 2018-02-28 15:07 diana_coman: ave1 have you ever passed a char * from c to ada in such a way that ada actually sees the correct length for it? there is something I don't quite understand there as To_C seems to use Target'Length so the length should be set
ave1: diana_coman: this, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-28#1786496, triggered a short dive into the whole array sending mechanism in Ada. Will write it up and post tomorrow, yes it is possible but you'll need to make some internal structure that Ada uses. Also I doubt it is much better than sending the pointer with a separate length parameter. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2014-07-19 03:16 mircea_popescu: so, this poor unfortunate soul found herself living her parent's dream : an assistant professor! at the prestigious ubb no less!
asciilifeform: ada folx: re making ada strings out of the c variety : strlen(char *) is a potentially lethal op ( suppose the nullterminator is missing ) so it will never be called implicitly by ada. you gotta either call strlen deliberately on c side, and then form ( can be on stack , declare ... Foo : String(1 .. Length) ... , say, a la http://btcbase.org/patches/ffa_ch4_ffacalc#L53 ) a proper ada string and copy the cstring into it.
diana_coman: ave1 have you ever passed a char * from c to ada in such a way that ada actually sees the correct length for it? there is something I don't quite understand there as To_C seems to use Target'Length so the length should be set ☟︎
diana_coman: ave1, aha, byte by byte was what I ended up doing at testing stage just to see it really working; hopefully I'll still get it working properly with To_C as such and then I can still avoid the C.Strings, stick with the procs To_Ada and To_C; it's not going to be pretty but at least the mess is as small as I can see a way to do it now
diana_coman: ave1, tbh I've been trying to avoid .c.strings at least but atm it looks set to still make its way in because calling ada stuff from c and getting char * result is an even worse mess with interfaces.c only (i.e. with char_array vs chars_ptr)
ave1: the fun of C strings, I hope you can use the procedure versions of To_Ada and To_C.
ave1: diana_coman: will you be depending on interfaces.c or interfaces.c.strings packages (I'v done some initial work on modified versions of these that do not need a second stack)

spyked: mircea_popescu, do you mean the irc logger? well, I figured moar redundancy can't do any harm; and it started as an occasion to study the various ways in which common lisp can handle the various pieces (database, irc, http). what I have so far is not very different from btcbase.org/patches/logbot-genesis , only I made it a point to avoid quicklisp and use manual imports etc.

If the female dies, the male gains weight and becomes the female for that group. The largest non-breeding fish then sexually matures and becomes the male of the group.

Protandrous animals include clownfish. Clownfish have a very structured society. In the Amphiprion percula species, there are zero to four individuals excluded from breeding and a breeding pair living in a sea anemone. Dominance is based on size, the female being the largest and the male being the
