mircea_popescu: tbh i'd rather have grep fixed to work like phf's search. sadly no easy way to do this.
asciilifeform: i gotta make a proper search, phf's is infuriatingly nonidentical to grep imho
asciilifeform: !~later tell phf plox to snarf ch7, ty
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 20:10 phf: well, it's pious tzadiks writing revenge porn on goyim, which somehow fell on fertile soil in this country.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-04 04:17 phf: back then su was pumping resources into india, but according to su economic strategy that mostly resulted in factories and hospitals. now americans are pumping resources, but that mostly results in moar mcdonalds. so naturally men with long memories are testy
a111: Logged on 2018-01-13 00:29 phf: pluck some locals that seem like they have a head of some sort, send them back to moscow for education, repeat
mircea_popescu: phf exactly.
mircea_popescu: have you been taking snark classes along the sanskrit phf ?
shinohai: phf is back in top form.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 20:12 phf: which is a shame, because before superman (and for a while in parallel), american lore was adequate
mircea_popescu: phf suppose you live in arhangelsk oblast, and suppose all they ever serve is some derivative of supermarket food. mostly, canned tomatoes.
asciilifeform: phf: i read the eng also as a kid, slightly laters, and did notice re the names
mircea_popescu: phf "real" time.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 16:45 phf: diana_coman: yeah, i remember the python 2/3 rants in logs here too. i take it s.mg at this point mails CDs of prefab player AND developer environments

asciilifeform: phf: d00d is paid for simple job. he did the job, moved on to next item on conveyor
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 15:44 phf: heh "1992 vintage italian shoe. the sole i head to replace out of hand carved wood, but leather is literally like nothing you can get anymore!!1"
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 15:42 phf: my grandfather (and his generation) spent their leisure time working on cars (also billiard and preferance). i can't help but think that working on keyboards is a bit of a step down :o
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 15:28 asciilifeform: phf: i even suspect that it is possible to improve the cornall design with... randomized scan. i suspect that the sequential scan, sets up resonances.
mircea_popescu: phf seems your cable being unchanged the samne problem may even recur!
a111: Logged on 2018-01-11 15:27 phf: hmm, they gave up on 1 key 1 wire long before though. those pdp keyboards, dec? was space cadet it?
diana_coman: phf, quite; Blender 2.66 for the record; the stopping point though was basically latest working with acceptable version of Python
diana_coman: thanks phf !
BingoBoingo: <phf> heh "1992 vintage italian shoe. the sole i head to replace out of hand carved wood, but leather is literally like nothing you can get anymore!!1" << Old leather always is something you can't get off the shelf
asciilifeform: phf: exclusing items on wheels , i dun think i've ever owned a mechanical device that was as much of a bitch to reassemble , as the 'f'
asciilifeform: phf: i even suspect that it is possible to improve the cornall design with... randomized scan. i suspect that the sequential scan, sets up resonances. ☟︎
asciilifeform: phf: ftr i think the 'matrix' design is ridiculous. esp in a device that cost what a harley cost at the time.
asciilifeform: phf: get the kind that can fit 3-4 turns of whatever usb cord you used.
asciilifeform: here's an interesting find for phf : turns out that snap-on-cable rf chokes do wonder for 'model f' kbd 'ghost keystroke' problem
asciilifeform: ohai phf
asciilifeform: !~later tell phf plox to snarf seal from http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2026&cpage=1#comment-18614 , ty
asciilifeform: shinohai: they are also in phf's v-viewer ww
a111: Logged on 2018-01-10 01:11 phf: i think somehow lisp symbols tie into this, i'd call it sanskrit thinking, because you also see that a lot in sanskrit. let's attach as much meaning to this symbol as we possibly can, but when we speak the correct meaning will be communicated because the other person is also a vedic god
mircea_popescu: phf this was ah.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-10 01:13 phf: so he might be saying ishvara, but the pleb is going to hear yahve. he should be expecting significant misunderstandings further down the communication
mircea_popescu: phf in principle and up to a certain degree this can be pulled off. but the management of that degree tree is i'd say the principal job of cultural management. because holy shit the failure modes.
mircea_popescu: phf not you, but future me. i will be senile one day, in 2075, and i might need to read this.
mircea_popescu: phf which is the fucking problem with the sort of mind. by avoiding to correctly order output (ie, most significant byte first!!) and ESPECIALLY by failing to correctly filter output (least controversial part is filtered, least copacetic part is passed, NOT the other way around!!!) is what mires technical discussions altogether.
mircea_popescu: phf iirc naggum was very anti-mule
ben_vulpes: phf: sadly all i have is a porch roof, bb gun, and alley full of squirrels and the occasional methwitch
a111: Logged on 2016-08-03 15:40 phf: the whole font changes meaning take two is coming from the japanese. they were actively promoting this idea back during early unicode standardization days, where there was a strong drive to include every idiosyncratic version of kanji in the standard, because "that's how my family writes it in our last name".
asciilifeform: phf: i'd actually rather see a resurrected zwei, than ancient cmachine cruft emacs, really
mircea_popescu: phf also, the split didn't happen around 18.59, it happened around whatever the fuck it was, 18.10. there was a period when both lucid and fsf were releasing "newer" minor versions, skipping the other's.
mircea_popescu: phf this term belies a variety of realities.
mircea_popescu: phf wait, which is it ?
asciilifeform: phf: i'm curious re the politics of the continuing schism. what do the xemacsits and the orig-emacsists actually disagree on in modern day ?
asciilifeform: phf: in all fairness, i barfed trying to read sbcl also
asciilifeform: phf: for my enlightenment, what changes ?
asciilifeform: phf: metoo actually
asciilifeform: phf: i dunget it, wtf was so lispm about xemacs
mircea_popescu: phf the only contentious portion none of the cucks addressed AT ALL is that lucid also wanted to take over. which may or may not be the right move, but utterly can't be "the one thing we don't talk about".
shinohai: Apply more beatings phf, then she will cater through sickness AND health.
mircea_popescu: phf pie ?
mircea_popescu: phf enjoy!
a111: Logged on 2018-01-09 18:56 mircea_popescu: hm where's phf go ?!

a111: Logged on 2018-01-07 02:52 asciilifeform: ^ anybody seen anything of this kind ? mod6 ? phf ? ben_vulpes ?
asciilifeform: ^ anybody seen anything of this kind ? mod6 ? phf ? ben_vulpes ? ☟︎
asciilifeform: !~later tell phf plox to snarf ch6 , ty
mircea_popescu: if instead of this we look at the other kind of "two parents", whereby ch3 supposedly has both ch2 and mpi_fix_copy as parents, this is specifically the situation discussed by the problem A : that two patches, which ARE STILL IN A CHAIN, nevertheless happen to touch disjunct filesets, and so the question of their order is open (which phf renders "correctly" in the sense of acceptably as he does ; but which is NOT meaningful i
asciilifeform: !~later tell phf plox to snarf http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/ffa_ch3_shifts.vpatch.benvulpes.sig .
asciilifeform: !~later tell phf plox to snarf http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/ffa_ch4_ffacalc.vpatch.benvulpes.sig , ty
ben_vulpes: i haven't bitten off the patch yet, and might not get to it by the time you release ch6, this all takes me a lot longer than phf or lobbes
asciilifeform: phf, ben_vulpes , mircea_popescu , et al ^
a111: Logged on 2018-01-03 17:07 phf: using the boolean we execute an if/else branch which either swaps the two numbers and drops the top most '_, or drops the top most without swapping _. the final drop _ is an artifact of conditional implementation that always leaves a value on the stack.
mod6: ok. asciilifeform, ben_vulpes, mircea_popescu, phf, all others interested, here's the orig thread (as ben_vulpes also found earlier): http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/76gSk/?raw=true
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 21:16 phf: a forced popup that warns you that you're sending to http from https, but there's no about:config to disable the popup. 9 years of "ffs put a boolean in configs, you fucks"
mircea_popescu: phf fine!
asciilifeform: phf: i force-format my ada. this only affects indents tho
mircea_popescu: phf i've little problem with people writing code in whatever line lengths they want to. but comments of arbitrary cut are infuriating (though admittedly 80col not nearly so much as 50whatever)
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 23:45 phf: in a proper program 80 col is an indicator of s/n, density and all kinds of lateral properties, that can be communicated between professionals, because you can know ahead of time, what you're dealing with by shape, and have a rough estimate for the token count
mircea_popescu: phf omfg is that phfatry opressing me ?!
mircea_popescu: phf yes.
mircea_popescu: phf who the fuck sez ?
mircea_popescu: phf incidentally, which 3 pages did you mean ? xach search returns like 50
mircea_popescu: phf http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/trilema-spaces.png ?
mircea_popescu: phf do i have to screenshot this ?
mircea_popescu: phf a 120 col line will contain a number of words distriburted around 23.7 ; this means your spaces being elastic works to some degree. i will hold up trilema as an example of this, would you say elastic spaces are not working for it ?
mircea_popescu: phf but hyphens are fundamentally different from spaces. the two are not semantically equivalent.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 18:44 phf: esthlos: reflecting on it a bit, tricky part of k&p for plain text is de-hyphenating for reflow
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 15:55 phf: heh "Classification of Dugin as a fascist is justified, regardless of the fact that today the MGU professor frequently speaks not as a primitive ethnocentrist or biological racist. (...) By «fascist» we understand the «generic» meaning of the concept, used in comparatory research of contemporary right-wing extremism by such well-known historians-comparativists [etc.]
diana_coman: phf might be onto something in that functional programming was not mandatory for instance; I took the course because I wanted to but I could have had no idea of it at all even, easily
asciilifeform: phf: lemme guess, their beards, were not white ?
asciilifeform: phf: aha, i can always and immediately spot somebody who did not use slime or equivalent autoindenter
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 19:13 phf: i was going to quote some choice naggum on guile, but it's 3 pages on xach's site, and it's very very unkind. interested parties are welcome to https://www.xach.com/naggum/articles/search?q=guile
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 17:37 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at some point phf will implement a wordwrap ; which can be done for browser window.
