mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how lond does a /stats/ pageload
take on phuctor ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: incidentally asciilifeform you'd love
these people. chat just exploded in a spontaneous demonstration of local brawn and might since i was
there, much like a rus' village cca 1600 would. and
the whole
thing more or less consists of an ad hoc primitive argument for "fiots in head".
mircea_popescu: in other news,
this cat-v
thing mostly looks like "an approximation of
tmsr pops up every 10 years ;
this is
the 2005 version"
phf: we broke ascii, we need more newblood here
to immunize us against random "why not use rust in docker container!!"
phf: you could probably write
to ecmascript 5, but even
then you're not going
to have enough
to support what ascii is
trying
to do. for one,
there are no integers.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform is going
to run
the us presidential elections. FUCK
THE MALL
TO DEATH!
catvorg_cultist: >I was specifically and deliberately uninterested in using for
this
tutorial any language
that is not already present on every reasonable box
phf: plan9 standardized on quotes as a way
to print/read filenames with special symbols (like space and newline) in it, but none of
the filter
tools support
that convention, so awk print $1 will happily render "foo\space, grep will grep for "foo\newline with rest of filename cutoff in both cases
catvorg_cultist: what was
the name of
that Rust clone of Unix, which run with "everything is a hyperlink".
mircea_popescu: a "bug"
that is introduced by
trying
to "support" idiots is not a bug. it is
trying
to support idiots. do not do
that.
mircea_popescu: all filenames should consist strictly of alphanum characters ; and if
the os simply purged anything else, AND clobbered all files
that
thereby ended up with
the same name into a single file, i'd applaud.
mircea_popescu: i agree spaces in filenames should not be possible. nor for
that matter any utf-8 bullshit.
mircea_popescu: in other news, i am enjoying
the
trifecta of superb coffee + local cognac + homemade muffins.
mircea_popescu: on
the web
they become i%20am%20a%20windows%20fucktard.docx or such. because willy-nilly space is a
thing.
mircea_popescu: "oh, but i ~intuited~ in my very special place
that parsing ls output is
the way
to go!"
mircea_popescu: a generation of "if you don't know what a word means, don't go look it up in
the dictionary, it's not like western culture is a
thing or
that you're bound
to it my precious snowflake! you can do anything, so ~guess~ what might have been meant!" cca 1960s ran into
the products of a generation
that made
things very much like an ak, cca 1940s.
the results are exactly of
this nature,
mircea_popescu: the above is fucking correct behaviour (on
the part of bash), it's your job
to not do
that
to it. what.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but it is not bash's fault
that unix uses null-term strings.
mircea_popescu: -ChanServ- [#cat-v] Welcome
to #cat-v. State your assumptions or prepare
to be boarded. <<
the similarities are striking.
mircea_popescu: well, correct in
the sense of simplicity. otherwise what do you do, maintain state ?
BingoBoingo: catvorg_cultist:
This alf prefers
to watch unkept cats oppress local vermin
mircea_popescu: whaack if you're inclined
to
tinker, you may
try making
the ring buffer discussed in
the logs ; should solve
the problem permanently.
catvorg_cultist: alf is
that american
tv show about an alien who eats cats.
whaack: alright now i connected
to
the six you listed and I seem
to be getting responses for my askfor
tx requests, I'll leave
this running for another 24hrs while I get more ram (should
take about a week) and report back
BingoBoingo: Nah, eventually he's going
to Chinese FPGA his own lisp machine
catvorg_cultist: Well,
the gospel recommends ditching sh completely and using rc shell from plan9 instead, but guess when
this will happen en masse
mircea_popescu: catvorg_cultist as pointed in
the logs, non-bash is simply not used ; so
the fact
that dumb holes like
that weren't found is not actually much proof
they're not
there.
mircea_popescu: amusingly, "always use quotes" and "don't use
the sh wordsplitting" is good advice for sh just as much.
whaack: cycling
through
them one at a
time
whaack: fwiw if I connect
to only your "trusted nodes" list I connect but don't get back any resposes from asktxn requests etc. (assuming "askfor
tx xxxx 0" in debug.log means
the request returned nothing)
BingoBoingo: <Mariono>
the 3 is multisig address :D << Not a real
thing.
mircea_popescu: there's a ream of other possible explanations also, at
this juncture.
mircea_popescu: whaack it's also possible you have one of
the mysterious connectivity issues we've kept seeing but never managed
to properly document. seems less likely.
mircea_popescu: whaack it is entirely possible
that your node is stuck on validating
that block because of lack of ram, yes.
☟︎ whaack: asciilifeform: is
there a box I can create an ssh
tunnel
to? would I do something along
the lines of ssh sync@46.166.165.30 -L 9001:127.0.0.1:8333 and
then run bitcoind with -connect=127.0.0.1:9001?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually
the mempool-node and
the blockchain-node split is pretty evident and definitely necessary.
they got spit-glued
together because well, early on in
the prototyping phase people didn't know what's
the engine and what's gonna be
the carriage so just made one ball of everything.
trinque: ben_vulpes: I don't
think it got in before other vpatches changed
the antecedents
mod6: asciilifeform: No vpatches, other
than critical ones +
the makefiles were considered.
There is a blerb in
the forthcoming SoBA
that we will begin again
taking a look at some of
these
that have been submitted.
ben_vulpes: phf: why doesn't funkenstein's privkey
tool patch show up on
the patch graph?
trinque: afaik
this is
the first n00bdeed in a while, which is cool.
trinque: mircea_popescu: Mariono: I need
to fix key sync between
the
two servers involved in deeds
whaack: alright I'll get more ram on my machine
then.
that being said you don't imagine
this would be a reason for it
to stall for 24hrs on a single block?
mircea_popescu: Mariono ok, NOW you're good. you will have your payment later
today.
mircea_popescu: Mariono dun worry about it, you;re all set ; will have your payment later
today.
Mariono: like
that right mircea_popescu
