esthlos: but have no idea wtf my compute is actually _doing_ 99
% of the time
mircea_popescu: about 75
% of the memory to reconstruct the identical in-memory version of the document. This experiment was among the many data points that led me to conclude that SGML is insane and that those who think it is rational to require parsing of character data at each and every application interface are literally retarded and willfully blind. Also, an SDIF data stream can only represent a validated document and the kinds of error
mircea_popescu: "By the way, the SGML Document Interchange Format (ISO 9069) uses ASN.1 to ship SGML documents around. I wrote an implementation of SDIF in three days. Test runs showed that a major CALS application consumed approximately 40
% of the character count of the SGML file, and with the then commonly available tools to parse and process SGML documents and ASN.1 processors, the SDIF data stream took around 1/200th as much CPU time and

mircea_popescu: any of 6 bits not being set -> chucked item ; 2^6 = 64 so 1 in 64 ie 1.5
% or so pass.
mircea_popescu: (last line 661 to 669, so 8 ; from 13 to 8 the variation indeed is 160
% so hah!
mircea_popescu: this is the case at least 50
% of the time throughout history.
mircea_popescu: fine, you rescued what was previously 100
% pantsuit wank into a 99.(9)
% item.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that many problems admit retrospective solutions is not at issue here ; the whole content of "i suspect the notion of "shouldn't even be having" is 100
% pantsuit wank." is that "alien problems" are an artefact of the retelling of history (esp if with a purpose) rarther than of the making of history.
mircea_popescu: witch doctor has gotten "99
% of the way there" -- the only problem is the tail.
mircea_popescu: well since you squeeze me, here it is : i suspect the notion of "shouldn't even be having" is 100
% pantsuit wank.
mircea_popescu: maybe your wrap(60) or whatevert it is makes text take up 40

mircea_popescu: "how about culling 95
% of us pop ? then can be small and prosperous nation ?"
mircea_popescu: phf you know, "kinky" is rapidly becoming a very dirty word, sorta like "moron" ? 99
% of my exposure to "kinky" comes from reviewing bot logs, where the pattern is 1. item self-identifies as "kinky" ; 2. bot goes through HELO/EHLO with them, provides entry point ; 3. they come back with "here is my valuation of $entry-point". because totally, anon bitch on meat market is a) in some kind of position of power and b) being asked
mircea_popescu: anyway, to revisit the upstack problem : the solution to rowhammer, 3.0 as 1.0, is not to "make kernel flush all the time, 50
% performance penalty" nor the original "solutions" nor any of that crap.

ben_vulpes: stop by and update us with node sync process regularly and you'll be ahead of 90
% of the pack, sadly
mircea_popescu: seems like the pantsuit lost 90
% of sqfootage per capita in the past three years, from ~10 to ~1.
mircea_popescu: then the "10" can be configurable ; or else it can be calculated by the node, (such as "117
% of average time it took me to check the past 144 blocks" for instance)
mircea_popescu: i don't see any change in behaviour. the prb node will produce ~same
% of blocks with or without.
mircea_popescu: 100

mircea_popescu: (because who are the writer-in-ny fantasies foolong, 100
