diana_coman: but I don't expect it really changed all
that much either
diana_coman: clearly, yes;
tbh I had
this uneasy feeling of
totally back
to
the 80's when I went
to Belarus some ...hm, 7 years ago already
diana_coman: bwahahhaa; when we were made pioneers we had
this picture by
the flag
thing
mircea_popescu: afaik
the phuctor list is like 1k or so ips by now no ?
Framedragger: (ah. suresure. well if one plans
to do
that on millions of machines or more, better
to use simple
tcp sockets hm. say
that masscan for 1st phase uses its own
tcp stack
to not exhaust kernel handles accidentally, etc...)
Framedragger: for some initial additional data, i
think so yeah..
Framedragger: i guess i should rerun
the scanner at some point at any rate
Framedragger: the particular scanner used for extracting pubkeys is not meant for
that kind of stuff, but..
the first phase
thing ("check who's alive") can grab banners, yeah.. would require fiddling (connections would become stateful, right now first phase uses 'SYN cookies') but ya sure possible
mircea_popescu: Framedragger really, shouldn't just run
the scan on port 80 ?
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: no coding really needed, mind you! at least not for
this 'phase' of analysis. but ya sure
mircea_popescu: Framedragger he's an english/math
teacher not a coder from what i gather.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-29 16:50 asciilifeform: anyway, i have neither
the
time (presently grunting out a much-delayed and urgent item) nor inclination
to do
the entire backlog (what, 800 of
these?! by now) by hand.
mircea_popescu: i
thought
they gamified with
the "loic"
thing a decade ago
mircea_popescu: actually BingoBoingo what was
that
thing vaguely mentioned on qntra recently ?
mircea_popescu: not right now, but occasionally
there's news items
that get poorly
translated
to en by idiots
diana_coman is waiting for BingoBoingo
to ask "who's your daddy?"
mircea_popescu has
the pleasure
to introduce EDLionX , who's chinese, lives in brunei and looks altogether like a great kid (though he isn't a kid!)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: ie, if
the govt prints
ten
times what rbs has and gives it
to
them, it will improve nothing, just increase
the "how much more
they need" by a factor of
tenish.
mircea_popescu: ser> what is your estimation - how much money is lacking? << more
than exists, basically.
diana_coman: I vaguely recall some discussion
touching a bit on
that
diana_coman: Framedragger, you are probably better off searching
the logs of
the eulora channel
Framedragger: random question: have
there been considerations for introducing financial instruments
to eulora at some point, for
trade etc? just curious
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> diana_coman for some reason it decided i'm anonymous lol. <- fixed; weird
though, as I can't seem
to be able
to reproduce whatever
the issue was
ben_vulpes: there are only 21 million bitcoin, so if
they're
that short
they may be in a bit of a
tight spot
ser: Royal Bank of Scotland did not pass "stress
tests" whaterver it means
BingoBoingo: That's only six years longer
than "traditional" maximum lease!
ser: swedish parliament recently limited mortgages
to 105 years maximum only
BingoBoingo: Grandchildren get it even better because inflation. Movie
tickets used
to cost a nickle!
ser: but grandchildren are not being asked if
they like it, as
they are usually unborn
ser: it's like
taking a 140y mortgage :)
BingoBoingo: It's easy
to become powerless over nicotine, but very hard
to see how it makes life unmanageable until
the end.
ser: i
told him
to quit dozens years ago
ser: because of
tobacco addiction
ser: an architect. he is dying at
the moment
mircea_popescu: mkay, so
they use a dozen server and a coupla sql ; grossly misprovisioned networking infrastructure and whatevs. whole setup should be about 50k.
mircea_popescu: of course
this leads
them
to buying no less
than
two cisco 5596UP.
that's 25 grand.
mircea_popescu: yes, your front end should run whatever, 18 bn
terragigs or anything you can find
mircea_popescu: i mean
the only
thing
this says is "we suck at system design"
mircea_popescu: they run in circles of
their own design and
then complain about
the results. it's like a scene spitefully drawn by rochester.
mircea_popescu: i'd kinda like
to see all
these "engineers" (who, as per some random douche working for microsoft, can not be found because most "relevancy engineers" as if
that's a
thing already work at google) would run phuctor on.
a111: Logged on 2016-12-01 19:16 mircea_popescu: "mice were found in germany which is a country
that once invaded
the soviet union where lenin introduced electricity which goes
through
tubes in which
tubes
today in england most mices live." "OH NOW IT ALL FALLS INTO PLACE!!!"
mircea_popescu: but it DOES
turn out
that
the upper range of stack exchange hardware is ~50% more ram
than phuctor. so... nyah.
mircea_popescu: which leads us
to a new heuristic :
the closer
the search engine mix on your site is
to bing having 20%,
the more drool your "userbase" contributes
to
their immediate environment on a daily basis.
mircea_popescu: so according
to
the dude over at nullspace.io, bing has "20% of market share" according
to some apparently public available sources. let's add
to
that : out of
the ~0.9 %~ of
trilema
traffic
that came from a search engine so far
this year, 127,291 came from google and 2,666 came from bing.
mircea_popescu: !!rate dan luu -10 unrecoverable imbecile.
this rating carries
to first order descendants - if you're
the offspring of dan luu please kill yourself.
mircea_popescu: and all
this at a cost
to me of 12mn a year for NOT SOLVING
THE PROBLEM.
mircea_popescu: he's solved
the problems other people might have, on
the basis of what he imagines a biologist might do, which is so pointedly not what any biologist ever does you can scarcely begin
to wonder what fucking highschool
the author frequented, because his mental furniture seems
to have diverged from
the common
trunk somewhere around
the age of NEGATIVE
THIRTEEN,
mircea_popescu: all about making "other people's" lives better - well! Should anyone claim
they failed
they can just change
the "other people", can't
they!
The socialist electorate, always and everywhere ein anderes.
That enchanted, imaginary public which supports you (from a safe distance) in your quest as you destroy
the little you actually have."
mircea_popescu: this is an eminent case of "Yes, yes, I know how it's doublespoken - socialism is not about
them making
their own lives better. It's all about making "other people's lives" better. Because it's so selfless and "good" and - most importantly! - because it can't be measured. If
they dedicated
themselves
to making
their own lives better,
there'd be a definitive authority
to say when
they failed. But if
they instead pretend
to be
mircea_popescu: apparently... a BIOLOGIST might NOT search for
that ; an imbecile pretending
to be a computer engineer however would.
mircea_popescu: verbatim from article : "And others
type in what
they
think of as normal queries for
their day-to-day work even if
they seem weird
to you (e.g., a biologist might query for GTGACCTTGGGCAAGTTACTTAACCTCTCTGTGCCTCAGTTTCCTCATCTGTAAAATGGGGATAATA)." here's
that search :
https://archive.is/oB6U3 mircea_popescu: holy shit, people can barely
type out
their name without reaching for a napkin
to clear
the drool, i'm going
to index
the 5 billionth prime number as such.
mircea_popescu: really fucker, your engineers
that pay for
themselves by
the score haven't figured out
that YOU DO NOT INDEX
TERMS LONGER
THAN ABOUT A DOZEN CHARACTERS ?
mircea_popescu: ngle shard ;
that’s more
than most people guess we’ll see on
the entire internet, and
that’s just in one shard
that happens
to contain one somewhat pathological site."
mircea_popescu: and after all
that engineering optimization companies care bla bla song and dance ? "So
there are definitely more
than
ten million unique
terms on
the entire internet! In fact,
there’s a website out
there
that has all primes under one
trillion. I believe
there are something like
thirty-seven billion of
those. If
that website falls into one shard of our index, we’d expect
to see more
than
thirty-seven billion
terms in a si
mircea_popescu: he also manages
to argue both ends at
the same
time - we apparently both underestimate how many low hanging fruit
there are AND at
the same
time just how high
these low hanging fruit actually come. hurr.
mircea_popescu: ex of 1B documents.
Then our cost comes down
to $12M/yr." <<
this danluu piece is
the most idiotic
thing i read all day. what
the fuck has "cloud" done
to
these people
that
they
think a 1bn index cost A MILLION A MONTH holy shit.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "What would Lucene at Google’s size look like? If we do a naive back of
the envelope calculation on what it would
take
to index a significant fraction of
the internet (often estimated
to be 1
trillion (T) or 10T documents), we might expect a 1T document index
to cost something like $10B1.
That’s not a feasible startup, so let’s say
that instead of
trying
to index 1T documents, we want
to maintain an artisanal search ind
