mp_en_viaje: who else is
there, billymg ? Mocky ? either of you got a moment
to do
this ?
mp_en_viaje: should prolly compress,
to avoid comma in url.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, so your idea is, recursive search ? user selects "duck" in abcduckefg,
the script
tries "c" sees if unique, if yes uses, if not
tries bc, if unique uses if not abc etc ?
☟︎ mp_en_viaje: this completely
the fuck fucked me over
thoyugh, 100+ links, hand picked all, now useless.
mp_en_viaje: what if i want
to select
the
third duck in duckduckduck ?
mp_en_viaje: selection
thing works by counting dom elements, and, guess
the fuck what, different browsers build
the
thing differently, resulting in different counts.
☟︎ mp_en_viaje: the fucking cuntheaded imbecile anti fucking human MORONS made it so you can't, actually, have in-page reference
that works reliably.
mp_en_viaje: in other horrible news : it's confirmed,
the selection
thing is ~~~BROWSER SPECIFIC~~~
mp_en_viaje: do you recall
that arguably famous-er pic of
the guy on
the er
table with hips
turning cyanotic hugging a
telephone pole up his ass ?

that famous lathe meat-wind pic
to
this
thread, but cannot nao find.

the girlies shack up with other girlies,
the boys retire
to secular onasteries, and
they all
think it precisely
tits.
mp_en_viaje: well,
the reason i don't really know what's going on would be
that... never said.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-19 14:46 mp_en_viaje: just up and start "telling what work" in
trilema, ESPECIALLY seeing how you've not so far done such an impressive job "telling what work" in #trinque, so as
to, for instance, rescue ben_vulpes from his grave.
mp_en_viaje: this extensive
travel is going
to make finding shit in a few years SO fucking painful. "i wonder, did i say mircea_popescu ? mp_en_viaje ?"...
mp_en_viaje: which is why we're working on build
toolchains and kernels and whatnot, in lieu of, eg,
trbfs.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-19 13:34 asciilifeform: certainly has NOT 'stood in place since 2015'
tho. i would not want
to use
the
trb of '15 in preference
to
the current.
mp_en_viaje: cig metal
tubes pretty good for all sorta uses. decent butt dildo in a pinch
too.
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, aha, i have a bunch of
them ~same reason
mp_en_viaje: the dom is not stable enough
to have meaningful count!

trinque: diana_coman: I'm going
to have
to leave. my final point is
that
this "do it all perfectly and yesterday" is a great way
to never go anywhere

there's
this strange habit in many places in eastern europe, including romania, where peasant houses, even
two room houses, get a "front room" which is never lived in.
the family deposits "the good stuff"
there, never uses it, goes in for
two hours a year during easter or w/e.

them all into
the genesis ruins
the "what's a linux" overview
a111: Logged on 2017-03-26 15:03 mp_en_viaje: basically a novel vector of imperial attack seems
to be
this "let's
take republican items and ~EXPAND~
the downstream so
that siberian river attack is
then feasible".

the incident where i glued
together rk pilot plant,
to only ~then~ find out
that nobody knows when
the fuck proper gnat will actually build arm binaries w/ working
threading, was instructive.
mp_en_viaje: was multi pronged,
there's me having meltdowns over eulora not compiling either, and so on.
mp_en_viaje: at
the
time
there wasn't
the need. notice how all
the destructoforks happened just about
the
time we announced v.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-19 14:57 mp_en_viaje: and yes, it included fucking bdb, as well as all sorts of stupid crap, which no, nobody swore
to
this very day ; not because nobody read, either. nor do i expect anyone will ever swear
to bdb
trb component.
mp_en_viaje: supposedly
there's always
to whom. but ... in practice...
mp_en_viaje: that, incidentally, is
the worst stone
to swallow, for me. say what i might about "oh, symbolics/whatever people were idiots", sure, why not. but
these guys,
they FUCKING
TRIED getting math
torch passed. and i know of no way it could've been done better.
mp_en_viaje: i dunno dood, part of
the problem of
this is
that until we see it we haven't seen it.
mp_en_viaje: whatever its merits from a religious pov, it's fucking insanely inconvenient. what am i supposed
to say here, "oh, now
that we have v, let's not use it, and instead work on everything outside of v" ? and what... let's design... u, for preparatory work for v ? and what, make it different from v /

trinque's algo is
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-19#1923467 aka in a way
the precise opposite: we don't actually have cuntoo at all; we have (genesised) just a map and
the rest is a sort of "for illustration purpose only"

☟︎ mp_en_viaje: i can see his pov
too,
the only problem is
that he picks some utterly
terrible approaches.
mp_en_viaje: ego bricks around
the house.
this doesn't make
them some kind of magic gurus, nor does it make your own understanding of
the systems and processes involved somehow inconsequential. why does it constantly have
to come back
to
this purely psychogenic, oh, nobody reads, oh, nobody can sit down a kernel, whatever
the hell ? it's just not a way
to go about
things, nobody's achievement is diminishing your own nor does your achievement necessarily require

trinque: my objection is
that nobody here knew how
to build a linux aside perhaps 3 folks.
mp_en_viaje:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-19#1923563 << you keep struggling with
this issue, and it's unseemly. looky, you didn't invent computers. you weren't
there when ken
thompson shocked himself on
the pdp or when richie papercut himself with
the unix manual or when etcetera. you're fifth generation, and
there's absolutely nothing wrong with
that. plenty of people hacked away at linux or at unix or at whatever
the fuck else back when you were installing l
☝︎ mp_en_viaje: ast-er, and nobody stores it all, quite deliberately, because everyone fucking hates it, not loves it like
they love bitcoin.

trinque: we did it by hash reference
mp_en_viaje:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-19#1923558 << hash reference is useless for
this purpose, because of
the very meaning of a hash -- you can't get
the hashed source back out of it.
the hash worked well enough for
trb because ~everyone has ~all versions and so it's a narrow and well documented domain.
the hash will not work (and, experimentally, in plenty of cases you weren't involved with, failed
to work, because
the domain is 2+ degrees of magnitude v

☟︎ mp_en_viaje: all discussion
to shock and surprise aside,
this is
the fuck exactly how
trb genesis happened,
too. nobody wrote a good one, just picked an actual one and genesis'd
that.
