Framedragger: (tl;dr right now, scriba only submits
to archive.is (with no local retention of requested site);
the "did archive.is actually accept
the submission" check has been improved, and can be used via
the `!$ getarchive` command. local retention should
take place eventually
though, imo.)
☟︎ pete_dushenski is more enthralled with japanese culture by
the day. intends
to construct a house (and garage) stocked with
their finest products.
phf: pete_dushenski: just
the linked appendix, rest requires even more entomological equipment.. :p
pete_dushenski: phf: aha cheers. saw
the link but didn't read
the gwern piece. will now.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the reason it's a
tree is ~because we say so~, not because in and of itself it ~is~.
there's no way for a pile of code
to be a
tree outside of
the will of
the people writing code.
mircea_popescu: adlai yes, in
that formulation it could be linked
to
the antecedent-in-file
thread.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-16 13:42 mircea_popescu: incidentally, speaking of nothing in particular, everyone heard of carlos ghosn ? quite
the fellow.
phf: adlai: i agree, it's a general graph, rather
than a
tree, has loops etc.
adlai: patches state what state
their antecedents must produce, but
they don't commit
to
the antecedent itself
mircea_popescu: no,
this'd be different ;
that was about adding references ~in
the files~ as comments ;
this is about
the patches (ie, diffs)
phf: the read part of
the story is vapid, but
the unread part is more interesting, and
therefore will be completely missed by
the
target audience of
that article: somewhere in
the world,
there's a corporation
that can change its ~internal communications language~ because
the ceo said so
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski fortunately nobody gives a flying fuck what esl speakers say on any
topic.
this is very deeply difficult for
the selfsame esltards
to grok, but it DOES explain why
trilema is more widely read
than nytimes.
adlai should probably provide an example instead of babbling, but: it's possible
to produce distinct antecedents for
the same patch
a111: Logged on 2017-01-06 06:36 mircea_popescu: anyway,
the problem of "how
to sort
two patches which alter entirely disjuncts subsets of
the file set" is not exactly clear. unless
they declare how
they prefer
to be sorted.
mircea_popescu: phf ben_vulpes : it won't corrupt anything if
the berkley db is ran in "detached" mode, which it prolly should be. i don't recall if we put
this in
the
trb or not.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski verifyall actually rechecks
the chain.
takes potentially hours.
mircea_popescu: so
that it's
trb_mod6_doesgirlsonboats.vpatch vs vtron_phf_addsnamespaces.vpatch. no conflict possible.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-08 02:07 phf: i still have an issue of global namespace for vpatches. i'm not yet sure
that
they need namespacing. it's sort of inconsequential for when you do your own press, but in
terms of permanent urls you have
the first come first served problem..
pete_dushenski: one can only attribute
the electronic reliability of
toyotas and hondas
to
the availability of ~the right kind~ of coders in japan. compare and contrast with
those of us or germany, it'd be a hoot.
☟︎ pete_dushenski: " << doesn't quite jive with mackenzie's experience as
to
the availability of coders but gotta sow
the seeds of propaganda
that 'japan is falling behind' when in fact seiko,
toyota, yonex, panasonic, and more are all leading
their fields globally
pete_dushenski: "Japan's population is ageing. Our economy is slowing. We are not producing enough coders and digital gurus.
The only way we can catch up and restore growth and dynamism is by looking outside our borders for
talent.
phf: i
think if you shutdown kernel will give a grace period
to stuck userspace processes and
then kill 9 it anyway
ben_vulpes: didn't like
the
thought of you wasting your
time on operating system reboots
ben_vulpes: you can nuke a stuck node in place without having
to restart
the whole machine.
ben_vulpes: couldn't
tell ya, i killed
the process and ran it again without
the flag in question
pete_dushenski: Framedragger: can you shed some light on how exactly scriba archives ? wondering if my little 'medium
trick' has any merit at all or is merely a duplication of effort if links are dropped in-chan
ben_vulpes: strace showed LOTS OF FUCKING READS which got me
thinking in
the right direction
ben_vulpes: i left -verifyall in my node's boot script for some reason,
took me a minute
to figure out why it was
taking forever
to reboot
the other day
pete_dushenski: also, dear republic, laocoon (62.113.203.216) is back online, relaying better and more widely
than ever. sorry for any inconvenience.

☟︎ jhvh1: pete_dushenski:
The operation succeeded.
pete_dushenski: !~later
tell gabriel_laddel_p "what do you
think of
the recent porsche cayennes?" << if you're
thinking of one as a residence, i could see it.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: haha yup,
the wild west needs a wittle washing ;) and
ty for
the qntra ups, might've been
the first
time BingoBoingo actually used my suggested
title!
mod6: Anyway, nice chatting for a minute ... but I better get back
to work :]
mod6: also, is
that Col. Kilgore?!
mod6: I like
this Red Cup news.
mod6: aha, ya, well, 'tis
true.
mircea_popescu: well it has
the advantage
that you can piss out
the window.
mod6: when reading "Snow Crash"
this year, and after Hanjin went bankrupt, was
thinkin, "sure, could buy some of
those
things...
tie 'em
together and start an ``ark''". but who would wanna basically live at sea for years on end?
mircea_popescu: mod6 as friend once said, "solitary confinment is just great - i
take one just about every
time i go
to
the john."
mod6: for a short
trip, fuck yea. otherwise, no.
mod6: yah, im with you. i don't
think i could deal with being at sea, indefiniately.
mircea_popescu: boat is never as cramped as when
the four resident girls get
their cramps.
mod6: but yeah, im not gonna live on some boat like rud00d, but would be into
taking her out for daily runs of piracy and vaginal stabbings
mircea_popescu: listen,
take a break. all
this "work" you do on computers is getting in
the way of your life.
ben_vulpes: gabriel_laddel_p: you're
the one damaging snr
tonight
gabriel_laddel_p: ben_vulpes: incidentally, if I'm wasting my
time here with Framedragger and adali, can you also negrate
them so
they can be put !!down?
gabriel_laddel_p: ben_vulpes: it wasn't for sale at any point when I had
the old key, but I suppose
that's just "faffing"
mircea_popescu: Framedragger butter sauce. i can
tell by
the liver-shot eyes and
the wattle.
mod6: but yah, wtf with
the key, etc?
mod6: i actually kinda wanna
test
this guy out
ben_vulpes: it was low,
then you lost your key, now i don't even wat
ben_vulpes: gabriel_laddel_p: you realize
that every day you continue faffing about like
this
the odds anyone here will pay one red cent for masamune goes down?
gabriel_laddel_p: ben_vulpes: you realize
that
there will be a price hike after
this is complete correct?
mircea_popescu: everything i hear about ovh makes me
think it's a french company.
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: iirc with ovh, paypal sometimes doesn't clear
till next business day. possibly same with CC. needs
to be checked manually. if you raise a
ticket with
them
they'll
tell you
that, and nothing will get fast-tracked. :/
mod6: It's like 7 deg. F., but I just grilled some awesome cheddarworst on
the grill. Damn
they were good.

a111: Logged on 2016-11-18 21:39 Framedragger: gabriel_laddel: i don't have much free
time now, either. maybe end of next week, at
this rate. re. CLIM web - any notes / writeup
to help? as in, 20min of your
time
to save some hours of my
time while helping you?
a111: Logged on 2017-01-08 00:48 ben_vulpes: beirc shits itself when i run it naively. complaints re no generic function for cl-irc:nickname or
the like
adlai is confused, can't
the _p-erson up itself?
ben_vulpes: hey ovh why does it
take more
than fifteen seconds
to charge a cc? what do you use, bitcoin?
☟︎ ben_vulpes: now if gabriel_laddel_p has returned
to say "omfg you said you would"
the fun continues!
Framedragger: true. and
treating it differently leads
to mismatched expectations.
ben_vulpes: anything other
than "yeah i'll get right on it" is a "no" in my book
ben_vulpes: not necessarily
that shitty of an attitude in
this case Framedragger
Framedragger: ("supposed" and "putting
this
together" is really stretching it, but i agree
that "hey i didn't commit
to anything" is a really shitty attitude, of
the same kind as "i hacked up loggotron but it's bad lol")
Framedragger: i
told gabriel i'd be interested in reviewing clim-web etc.; he sent me a very nice email with instructions incl. setup;
this was 20 dec; i didn't have
time
to look at it.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-08 00:39 gabriel_laddel_p: Framedragger was supposed
to put
this
together, but (surprise) has not.

the right word is 'algebra'. dude

teacher
that drew a line on
the blackboard,
then fisted it
to uproars from

adlai: gabriel_laddel_pm |
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-07#1598715 < also, it sounds like you might have been sorely miseducated your entire life. << whaddya want, he was a populist; yet in his defense, he was my first math^H^Harithmetic
teacher who... how do i put
this, had a mentor relationship with his charges rather
than just "these are
the numbers,
these are
their sums"
☝︎ a111: Logged on 2017-01-07 18:31 Framedragger: mircea_popescu: ah,
that's pretty cool. i see what you mean - you can see craters and
the dark side still being
the moon... collective delusion / cognitive dissonance something something! (and btw i meant
the album but both work well in
this instance..) :)
adlai:
