mircea_popescu: Framedragger i've not yet got through the log because parsing threw exception on that line i quoted :D
asciilifeform: the 1 minus is that the -- already quite costly apparatus -- would cost yet moar.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-19 16:52 Framedragger: asciilifeform: at least with public-static and phuctor boxes being separate, you'd have access to the latter if it were private. (but i guess you could object with "private/undisclosed box on the internet, what is this oxymoron!")
asciilifeform: but yes, mircea_popescu is quite right re 'ought to cut'em apart'
mircea_popescu: she just doesn't want anyone to see it is all.
mircea_popescu: they really couldn't, and didn't, give a shit about phuctor working throughout the years it worked.
mircea_popescu: and the ONLY thing that interests the shitgnomes is display.
Framedragger: to the point of having a ready-made system image (no, does not imply need to use docker), deployable at vps center in a matter of minutes.
asciilifeform: i dun think anything short of unplugging the box will stop processing.
mircea_popescu: yes, but there are two concerns that are separable : a) flood stops processing and b) flood stops display.
mircea_popescu: yes, but much easier to a) have a lot b) move around
asciilifeform: (needs 0 net pipe for this)
asciilifeform: i will point out that, unless the box has been stolen, it is still processing keys at same rate
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: cheap vps will fall down just as readily when flooded (as will the trb node, mine or anybody's)
Framedragger: (by other people's sites i mean sites that i'm responsible for.)
Framedragger: because 1) other sites' experience may be impacted, and 2) phuctor db would place some load on things. why = because i'd create a few indices, those would hog some memory, and assuming users want to do quite a bit of sorting etc, would take some cpu time as well. just sayin'. nothing scientific.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the wisdom of having the data in a cheap vps is becomingf ever more apparent.
a111: Logged on 2016-11-19 17:18 ben_vulpes: Framedragger: i am also curious to know what kind of requirements you have for a vps that your current loggotron doesn't serve.
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-19#1570793 << current loggotron also runs on vps, and in itself it requires very few resources. no db use, even. at this point there's a bunch of stuff and other people's sites running on that vps, i don't feel comfortable adding additional load. ☝︎
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: (syn flood suspicion because sockets don't respond with anything, even when possible to establish tcp connection. and yes ping does seem to work.)
a111: Logged on 2016-11-19 17:30 mod6: <+Framedragger> trinque: fine with me << settled then?
Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-19#1570801 << just to confirm that this was trinque saying he'd be up for doing it, and yeah sounds good :) ☝︎
mircea_popescu engages in this exercise.
asciilifeform: dollars to doughnuts thing is under syn flood.
mircea_popescu: i can tell you what wtf right now : learn not to overload box.
mircea_popescu: well... so you want me to what, datacenter reboot ?
asciilifeform: can ping, 150ms or so, but that's all.
mircea_popescu: 31 packets transmitted, 31 received, 0% packet loss, time 30040ms < you actually can't ping it ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it's dead in the water.
mod6: thanks trinque
mod6: <+Framedragger> trinque: fine with me << settled then? ☟︎
mod6: <+trinque> Framedragger: ben_vulpes: it probably makes the most sense for me to do the WoT browser << perhaps. i'd be up for anything really at this point.
mod6: This would be a really great project to work on, we're long overdue to get this working with deedbot, etc.
mod6: I think the idea would be to get back to some sort of analog of what mike_c had in place. And then add improvments as necessary.
mod6: Framedragger: I do like this graph for sure, http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/7607999
mod6: Framedragger: so with regard of the wotperson to wotperson (http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/trust/?from=mod6&to=mircea_popescu) and all ratings to wotperson (http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/user/mod6/); I think we liked those very much as they were. Of course any sort of improvements could be added if they make sense, etc. ☟︎
asciilifeform: (and , for folks with poor reading comprehension, i will repeat - entire box is ~unreachable, trb node, ssh, 80, etc )
ben_vulpes: Framedragger: i am also curious to know what kind of requirements you have for a vps that your current loggotron doesn't serve. ☟︎
asciilifeform: Framedragger: all of this is quite academic if thing cannot be made to reliably stay up.
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: i'll think about this next week. it may be that it's not really needed, yeah - i agree. and integration of things such as ssh server banners with phuctor keys is something that asciilifeform said he'd be up to do on phuctor's db itself..
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: heathen-facing publicationtron is inherently contradictory thing . ☟︎
ben_vulpes: just don't connect it to the internet, what
asciilifeform: box that stays up - likely, needs new internet.
asciilifeform: them who want mig -- are the lucky'uns. all ya need is a bag of money this-wide and this-tall, and here's yer mig.
asciilifeform: box that stays up - different matter.
asciilifeform: which seems to be beyond the current technological state of the art.
ben_vulpes: replication works on the wal, not on the committed db, and so i don't think it would have the load impact you do.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: the main thing wanted by 'people doing most of the analysis' is a BOX THAT STAYS UP
ben_vulpes: 'read only sql users to a replica of the phuctor db' is, while an interesting project, not wanted by the people doing most of the analysis afaict
asciilifeform: (backups are a monthly affair, any more often would -- again -- grind whole thing to a screeching halt)
trinque: ^ right way to analyze data
asciilifeform: the most i can offer to anyone is a static copy of the db. and that is supposing that the box comes back up, and stays up.
ben_vulpes: i too would like more detail in re 'shall provide a platform for those interested in analysing RSA keys'
Framedragger: i mentioned js in relation to WoT as it's more applicable there (lots of ready-made libraries for discrete graph visualizations and so on)
Framedragger: asciilifeform: well, less so visualizations than easy ways to query and analyse data. but, i agree with mircea_popescu and yourself that concrete merits are to be discussed. maybe it's not needed.
asciilifeform: it needs a key eater that doesn't saturate the db capacity 24/7 -- yes. a server that doesn't fall down when washington farts on it -- also yes. 'js visualizations' ??
ben_vulpes: even mike_c-'s thing only used js to populate the typeahead iirc
trinque: alright I'll take that and you can focus on phuctor viz
Framedragger: trinque: sounds good to me, fwiw!
asciilifeform: but it is neither here nor there, the server - falls down whenever enemy wants it to fall down.
mats: i imagine this'd have a lot of applications in, ie, mosul, raqqa, and more modern battlefields of the future
Framedragger: regarding visualization, a more condensed question: if a javascript-using thing were delivered, would this be hated upon (and berated by asciilifeform) and accepted if otherwise good and properly maintained, or hated upon and dismissed (and berated by asciilifeform)? :) ☟︎
trinque: anyone else is going to have stale data ☟︎
trinque: Framedragger: ben_vulpes: it probably makes the most sense for me to do the WoT browser
a111: Logged on 2016-11-19 16:52 Framedragger: asciilifeform: at least with public-static and phuctor boxes being separate, you'd have access to the latter if it were private. (but i guess you could object with "private/undisclosed box on the internet, what is this oxymoron!")
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-19#1570743 << i have, as you can surmise, own comp, that still works ☝︎
mats: i wonder what a limited remote steering package on a toyota camry is worth
mats: many affordable non-luxury cars today ship with front and rear-view wide multi-angle cameras
Framedragger: note to self/logs, check https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Streaming_Replication
ben_vulpes: wot browser somewhat higher priority though
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: oh hmm, i've never used it, very interesting and thanks for the pointer
ben_vulpes: phf: may be able to chime in on how much load that'd add to the db process but i don't think much
ben_vulpes: Framedragger: if you go down the 'phuctor visualizer/dash' route, you might consider leaning on pg streaming replication ☟︎
Framedragger: re. visualization, i like stuff like this (mouse over on labels around the circle), but it's a hella lot of JS, and i share the hate towards the latter: http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/7607999 - what's nice about btcalpha visualization is that it uses by-now standard html5 canvas directives (<path>) with no need for JS. ☟︎
Framedragger: asciilifeform: at least with public-static and phuctor boxes being separate, you'd have access to the latter if it were private. (but i guess you could object with "private/undisclosed box on the internet, what is this oxymoron!") ☟︎☟︎
Framedragger: i suppose the idea could be to re-implement that, but using deedbot's view of WoT, and add additional things as desired. ☟︎
Framedragger: mod6: regarding visualizations, i'm just curious, did you have something particular in mind, as in, how do the svg visualizations at http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/trust/?from=mod6&to=mircea_popescu and http://www.btcalpha.com/wot/user/mod6/ look to the eye?
mod6: So I wanted to avoid that. But going forward, I think that'll just some sort of optional field or whatnot. I'm excited to put some work into that as soon as I can here.
Framedragger: fair 'nuff. guess it depends on agreed-upon processes and overall mindsets of team, and so on...
mod6: Framedragger: aha. yeah, in my experience with ticketing systems ala scrum, it's my observation that if a ticket is "assigned or owned by Jeff, I don't even think twice about it."
Framedragger: mod6: sure! maybe "assignee" would have the desired (lesser) connotation, i don't know. coming from some trac feature/bug tracking in distributed teams experience, 'owner' is there interpreted as simply 'person who is ultimately responsible for implementing/fixing this', with other collaborators invited and acknowledged
mod6: Anyway, now that it seems that private a more rich ticketing system is wanted, these things can be considered for sure. Salud! ☟︎
mod6: Framedragger: point taken about 'owner' on tickets. I considered adding a 'assignee' or 'owner' for a given ticket(s), but with the narrow view of the first project (trb), i didn't want to discourage people from thinking about solutions for a given problem just because it had my name on it or something.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> Framedragger if you wanna do data visualisations, the thing to do is the wot explorer. that i actually miss. << me too.
asciilifeform: ('but,' , said my internal mircea_popescutron, 'nobody had the slightest inclination to examine anything!' -- but this is besides the point)
Framedragger: i hear you, examining them ourselves (in some automated fashion or w/e) would have been prudent. "trust the public to do it", uh :/
asciilifeform: i wrote, in the qntra piece, 'examine debianized boxes for nsaware'. now 'owner' will have a chance to clean up before any mass 'examination' takes place. ☟︎
asciilifeform: the 24/7 ssh pipe i had to the box on dedicated display - also dead.
asciilifeform: the trb node just as dead.
Framedragger: asciilifeform: by links break you mean that they are unreachable for extended periods of time? but boxes with cached static content can be armoured against ddos more, no? i guess unless you maintain that this is indeed syn flood or equivalent, which is agnostic to whether content up the stack is dynamic or sttaic...
asciilifeform: usg.dns does not give this 'serve from somewhere else.' deliberately.
asciilifeform: enemy's whole objective was 'make 0 come up when folx click the link'
asciilifeform: Framedragger: fuck lot of good caching does if the links break.
mod6: Framedragger: black mirror is pretty good -- im halfway through the latest series.
pete_dushenski: of lines of code and that many chinese sensors ~will~ fail at some point. and it will be unexpectedly. and catastrophically. ☟︎
pete_dushenski: mats: do you see the appeal in the whole autonomous driving thing ? it strikes me as appealing to the same neophilic and inconsiderate mind that wanted to vote shillary in simply because she's a woman and WOULDN'T THAT BE GREAT, not because the consequences had any bearing on the decision making process. frankly the idea that sv-shitware was in total control of my vehicle is frightening. that many millions
Framedragger: still, the permalink-able key pages can be cached and/or served from somewhere else, no?
Framedragger: 'providing public services' does not necessarily imply 'provide them on the very box which does the important stuff'.. (though i hear you re. your 'ability to provide caching to live feed' concerns..)
asciilifeform: the 'public' needs exactly 1 'service' - an infinitely-long, red hot poker thrust up its collective arse, forever.
asciilifeform getting quite sour on the whole idea of 'public services'.
