asciilifeform: the ben_vulpes takes the orig fix to the logical conclusion.
asciilifeform: mod6: speaking of, didja ever try ben_vulpes's moar-aggression patch ?
trinque: https://www.liveleak.com/view?i=529_1517109784 << of possible interest to BingoBoingo et al
asciilifeform: ( some of these will make sense only to orcs, e.g. https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/233577/31478297.35a/0_dece9_75feb48a_X5L.jpg << 'do not dry by the fire clothes you have washed in petrol' )
asciilifeform: https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/479589/31478297.35a/0_decf0_ff2e3f85_X5L.jpg << e.g. 'leave unexploded ordnance alone'
asciilifeform: some of these have pretty great possibilities for double-meaning, e.g. https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/9254/31478297.2d7/0_aca84_b516d1dd_XL.jpg >> 'mmm, hi-fi!11'
asciilifeform: or perhaps best of all, https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6213/31478297.28d/0_85dde_3ddcbe7e_XXXL.jpg .
asciilifeform: err, https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6312/31478297.28d/0_85de0_78b4abc5_XXXL.jpg
asciilifeform: https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6309/31478297.28d/0_85def_d925370_XXXL.jpg << oblig.
BingoBoingo: !~later tell mircea_popescu a MUSL box is now ready to plug in and serve a form of Qntra... after a weekend of head banging
asciilifeform: "Do we need Word_Index or Indices?8". << yes, for proof of nonoverflow. and in general wherever i saw it possible to constrain a type, i constrained it. and will continue doing so.
asciilifeform: 'why not use the pragma Provide_Shift_Operators?' << it doesn't work on gnat2016, try it
shinohai: but in mircea_popescu's original, I also see strange things
shinohai: asciilifeform: i mirrored your dictionary, and mircea_popescu's wordlist here: http://btcinfo.sdf.org/library/Roman-Englez/
xenmen_: thanks mircea_popescu, just reading up on your site
deedbot: xenmen_ voiced for 30 minutes.
mircea_popescu: !!up xenmen_
asciilifeform: the item mircea_popescu gave, 'dex', is also on the conveyor, but will prolly have to wait for peacetime
asciilifeform noticed that the ro_eng_ascii.txt w4r3z was a mega-popular item in the machine log , for quite some time, and so went to put this flag on it.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 2nd eggog, 'very significant costs'
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'underlying problem' link in your latest piece, eggogs
shinohai: phf was going to, maybe when more sluts arrive. I thought emmylark was under the auspices of mircea_popescu
phf: asciilifeform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sez_-UoRudg
asciilifeform: phf: worx with variable success. didn't , for instance, for FG to diana_coman
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if you're especially unlucky -- by googling and finding a usg purchase quote from $bigvendor
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: That I am asking around on and seeking clarification about.
asciilifeform: naa i'ma do what mircea_popescu said, leaving it alone for nao
phf: mircea_popescu: i don't think it makes sense to talk about bit order on any of the architectures that we're discussing, since you can only address by bytes. big endian systems could have little endian bytes and you would never know, likewise little endian systems could have big endian bytes and you would never know. logically though there's no reason you can't view big endian to be a bit reverse of little endian

asciilifeform: i also agree with mircea_popescu in re ~new~ cpu design having no business being byte-addressing and having a detectable endianism orientation AT ALL.
phf: mircea_popescu: our current strategy with architecture support has been "it works on my machine, but if you want it to work on your machine submit a vpatch", and it's been pretty consistently applied (e.g. my openbsd patch that's been floating independently, despite never getting vpatched).
a111: Logged on 2018-01-28 15:24 mircea_popescu: in other news, to share with the group for comment : the idea is that even if we do mandate smallendian, it would still be proper to have a bitwise implementation, even were it slow, as a proper model of sorts. so it'd be both of these.
a111: Logged on 2014-10-14 15:14 mircea_popescu: the entire "monsanto increases yields" fallacy is based on the fraudulent proposition that shit-tomatoes are = tomatoes.
a111: Logged on 2014-10-15 19:56 asciilifeform: another observation re: qntra. recall mircea_popescu's point about synthetic tomatoes?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what was the context there ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu dislikes the 'we know the constants' endianism, flip if machine's is opposite' traditional pill ?
mircea_popescu: diana_coman ok but not too long. one night stand!
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, will schedule dreaming eulora spec machine then
asciilifeform: supposing mircea_popescu is happy to risk a coupla btc of crate 'in 1 basket'
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform would be an one-time thing. but hey, you get to see uruguay. it's jenuinely not bad, can go for a week, take pet on trip to bsas for a few days... the city is lovely if one doesn't mean to stay << Rocha, Cabo Polonia, and Colonia are all highly recommended by the vacationers
mircea_popescu: speaking of which : hey diana_coman it is upon you to produce a dreamspec eulora machine nao. hit me.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-28 00:34 mircea_popescu: if i want 5 boxes, what do i do now ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: De nada
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> what's wrong with fedexing it! << Box that enters the country via FEDEX is going to certainly get hit with customs and the 22% IVA. Box that comes in suitcase is almost certainly going to get waved through as a personal effect. It's a math problem of whether to pay an import duty or plane ticket.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in pythonballs, https://78.media.tumblr.com/f437745983e6fd3a3003ed8112e6396d/tumblr_ngdipg4hbP1sgp1p7o1_1280.jpg

a111: Logged on 2018-01-28 01:01 mircea_popescu: trinque the fundamental point is that if they shit in it, it'll be ~their~ shitting in it. obviously orcs will be orcs, anyone recall say http://trilema.com/2015/internoc24-llc-aka-internoc24com-is-a-scam-or-how-milan-dragan-slatjovic-stole-700-euro-from-me/ or w/e
asciilifeform: where mircea_popescu gave a picture, 'i'ma buy a 6th item in the place that has the correct 1-5 already, and even for moar dough'
mod6: yes, mircea_popescu. exactly.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you did. and how it took , what , whole month on top of the Officially specced <week , and showed signs of passing through who knows what ordeals
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the orig prototype rng
asciilifeform: hey mircea_popescu recall my fedex to ro ?
asciilifeform: maybe i'm thick, but , let's say mircea_popescu wants a server magicked into existence. would he want to pay the cost of a asciilifeform-carries-in-suitcase-in-airplane-to-BingoBoingoistan in the cost of said box ?
BingoBoingo: Someone here has to need a vacation, mircea_popescu might be the only other person in the republic with better weather scheduled for the next two months.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> gold sparks and everything ? << ya, mine too.
asciilifeform: iirc it looked exactly like mircea_popescu's
mod6: neat-o mircea_popescu
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually had 1 of these as homework in american school, 3rdgrade << yah, same.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually had 1 of these as homework in american school, 3rdgrade
asciilifeform: oh hey congrats mircea_popescu
asciilifeform: oh hey is that mircea_popescu's new kitten
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it would, i already established it in my torture room
mod6: lol, i've not "formally" started it. I have however, looked through most of 1, 2, 3, and 4. Did the homework for ffa_calc. But again, not enough to say "I've done it. Lemme sign."

(after filtering out non-pingbackabble sites, I sent all pingbacks manually, just to look at responses)
mod6: ben_vulpes: got it
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: plox to quantify 'just fine'
a111: Logged on 2018-01-27 20:02 diana_coman: re nodes: mine is still there but still not at the top; I even pressed and ran asciilifeform's patch but it's unclear to me if it helped tbh; I admit I did not have much time to really dig deeper there exactly

spyked took a look through how mod_security does user agent-based filtering and stumbled upon http://archive.is/ELI4u#selection-1478.0-1518.2 lulz; no idea how a programmatically-generated string can be botched up just like that.
diana_coman: fwiw it looks like some mod_security mess
spyked: diana_coman: here's the output: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Nlokl/?raw=true and the script I used http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/z0nep/?raw=true it would seem ngnix expects user agents to meet a particular spec (that I haven't figured out exactly) before delivering pages
a111: Logged on 2018-01-19 18:34 mircea_popescu: !~later tell spyked hey, does your tarpit not send pingbacks or is there some error ? what's the response if you say curl -v -A "Mozilla/5.0" -r 0-4096 --connect-timeout 30 --max-time 10 "http://www.dianacoman.com/xmlrpc.php" --header "Content-Type: text/xml" --data "<?xmlversion="1.0"?><methodCall><methodName>pingback.ping</methodName><params><param><value><string>http://trilema.com/2017/re-reading-is-the-most-powerful-tool/
spyked: diana_coman, yeah, but your webserver is ultra-conservative on user agents. :) the one from http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-19#1773164 didn't work, so I faked one from an existing browser, which eventually did the trick. (nb for whoever wants to craft xml-rpc requests manually) ☝︎
mod6: hi diana_coman

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i fully expect that he'll speak, lol
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: imho even a straight cleanroom clone of http://btcbase.org/patches wouldn't be entirely useless

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the 'anyone could cheat with witchcraft' thing is a recurring motif in idjit pygmystans , verily
phf: mircea_popescu: i'm perhaps failing to find a point at which your analogy connects with the situation. i read it as "don't know on things that seem trivial"

a111: Logged on 2018-01-26 16:15 mircea_popescu: in fairness, kid's got me meditating about the nature of things ever since last night. see, the trouble is : in his syustem, he has actually found a vulnerability, as a factual matter. in my system this is entirely meaningless. why the difference ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Starting to get more attention for them again as my confidence recovers from the past weekend
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: or that. ( the difficulty with privkeys-as-prizes is to show that they are in in fact inside the prizebox prior to play )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this is correct. which is why we dun have mechanisms judging kochs.
