asciilifeform: it may seem odd that sheep herders would have warm feeling for wolf, but i can see it. 'colleague.'
mircea_popescu: i can see it.
asciilifeform: like chechens, hah. ( phunphakt, general dudayev banned the cult su cartoon 'ну погоди' in his kingdom in '90s, because 'insults our national animal' i shit thee not )
a111: Logged on 2018-08-16 17:24 mircea_popescu: i don't get it, what;s the rush ?
asciilifeform: (hey what do they call 'wolf's ticket' in ro ? i.e. black mark of shame, sorta opposite of a letter of rec)
a111: Logged on 2017-10-31 22:54 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-31#1731544 << everyone is, as a result of usg militant tardation. i can just drive into brazil. you -- can not. they "banned" turkish visitors, as if anyone from turkey could be arsed to go to the us ; turkey reciprocated, meaning about 70% of classical antiquity is now off limits to what in english passes for "the civilised world".
asciilifeform: i suspect that 'market' collectively barely adds up to what the server costs'em
mircea_popescu: privateinternetaccess totally pwning this "i'm a cryptoretard" "market"
mircea_popescu: i looked for non-led ones, can't be had.
asciilifeform: i dun know of a 4y battery that costs <5bux.
asciilifeform: fwiw i have photocell+li-poly battery garden lights, they've been going for 4y nao. 5bux/ea.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i am not supposed to be having these problems! post-modern textual deversion is supposed to be overwhelming not underwhelming.
mircea_popescu: what the fuck am i going to do now, lulz at 2018 anglo-repaste of stale 2008 ro dramaz ?!
asciilifeform: pretty sure i read that one
mircea_popescu: the funny thing is, back when i was writing in romanian, THIS HAPPENED EXACTLY. rando nobody-pretending-to-be-mne threw shitfit in exact same terms over exact same "problems", i even quoted it on trilema back then.
mircea_popescu: anyway, i lolled @ "literal millions". funny how ~erryone thinks it's ok to pretend to being mp, on words only.
mircea_popescu: well apparently not, or i dunno.
asciilifeform: lol! i had nfi that d00d were still 'in biznis'
asciilifeform: as plain p2p radio, 8266 is sorta marginal (i got ~100 metres in open air, 150 is pushing it) but is still interesting from pov of 'bridge gaps by connecting to open wifi in orcistani city'
a111: Logged on 2017-04-16 23:23 mircea_popescu: yes, i linked the paperwork coupla days ago. what the ukr split cost was 40k.
a111: Logged on 2017-04-15 15:08 Framedragger: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-15#1644022 << i understand the importance of this question and shall attempt some kind of answer, or will properly fail. bit later (took mdma last night with girl, after ~3 year break. so much love omg.)
mircea_popescu: i think it was the city of iran
a111: Logged on 2018-02-05 16:14 asciilifeform: this part i always found puzzling. why not take the chance for revenge
mircea_popescu: george everytard's "yes i didn't do any work, but bear in mind i am in the smaller office" very much apropos.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I have not yet
asciilifeform: and i dun have one . plz reveal the surprise ?
mod6: Alright, so I ran the script, and I got an error when it did the apache configuration test near the end of the script.
mircea_popescu: hey, i twisted my ankl;es numerous times in this here ocean. some things worth a twist.
mod6: yeah, certainly. lesson learned i think :D
mircea_popescu: emergenct de-emergenced itself i hope ?
mod6: so am I correct in that we're going to set up the account for 'bimbo.club' ?
mod6: ok I'm back. my apologies.
BingoBoingo: I've got some time before the Peruana gets off work
mod6: please go ahead and get started on that for me, i don't know when i'll be back.
mod6: ive got an emergency over here, and i have to leave.
mircea_popescu: now i got the choice of either chasing a ~nothing or making some scammer's day ? pshaw.
mod6: brb, I gotta pull these ribs out of the smoker and eat 'em.
mod6: once I have her account and other things set up from the script, BingoBoingo is going to take over and do the wp-mp setup.
mod6: mircea_popescu: actually not sure. i'm pretty unclued on the entire thing.
mod6: jurov: ok both tarballs are now in your ~/ : The entire /usr/portage ~and~ the /etc/portage (which also included a sybolic link to /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/17.0/no-multilib which I also dropped in there incase you needed it -- all of this is from the shared environment, UY1.
mod6: ben_vulpes: I need to ask you a question about your excise-hash vpatch, I'll do so in #trilema-mod6
mircea_popescu: in the meanwhile, once you learn italian you could read http://aretino.letteraturaoperaomnia.org/aretino_la_cortigiana.html ; but until then i guess http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-21#1843362 should make ok replacement for... whatever was the stupid shit you were reading ? ☝︎
mod6: i will throw the tarball of the shared environment's portage into your ~/
mod6: yeah, it's on the same network. im not as worried about that, but i just thought that it might be bad to mix and match the portage files from what we have existing, to whatever the shared environment has on there.
jurov: mod6 good. Please copy over /usr/portage from the shared box to a new dir (don't overwrite anything) and I'll go on from there.
mod6: that's a different box, i'll check and see there on the shared environment. one sec.
mircea_popescu: trinque i don't think they know what they provide :D
trinque: yep, I host with you, so whatever it is you provide worx.
mod6: but I don't know if it's cuntoo-ish, or early cuntoo-ish.
mod6: and i think stormy, the foundation box was a gentoo setup by ben.
mircea_popescu: !!rate nicoleci 1 i own her.
jurov: But i don't want to install newest one, it may pull gcc 6 and what not, does cuntoo has an apache version?
mod6: i have no idea.
jurov: i know, but which ones should I emerge.
mod6: on there? I don't even think he has either setup on there.
mircea_popescu: and i have items with six figure qualities right now in my inventory.
mircea_popescu: 4d. think, just looking through my storage right now, i have a dozen or so SIX FIGURE stacks.
mod6: Lemme dig up the one script that I have from ben_vulpes, the rest of the notes I think BingoBoingo has.
jurov: I'll install/configure apache on the pizarro-colocated foundation box. Want to prepare for mp-wp, anyone has handy their notes pls?
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 16:55 mircea_popescu: (something very similar was the original impetuus for mp asking ben_vulpes for candi [where is she btw ?] only to then discover after a whole day of basic-training-with-admirals that in fact the memory footprint for what i had in mind was ~infinite)
mod6: i have bunch of tarballs and things on there now that one can just easily download or whatnot.
jurov: mod6 let me know when it's set up to serve static files, i'll at least copy the archive there
mod6: i just gotta get the time available to do it. with any luck the current configuration will hold up for another month or so to allow me to get freed up a bit.
mod6: yeah, i want to move the website to one of the foundation boxes as well.
mod6: now i've got one location where it's responding fine, and another that i'm getting 504.
mircea_popescu: Mocky right, this is a recurrent problem with extremely meta-stable attractors, i don't expect in the end it makes ANY difference that in an isolated state it produced weird double-evens.
mircea_popescu: so in short, i don't see a practical reason to say ave1 's 7846x173q 1592x177q is not a legitimate final state, even if it doesn't match what we've been saying final state should be.
mircea_popescu: i mean, from the trader pov, debalanced count pairs are arguably slightly better (so 1 - 9999 perhaps better split than 5000-5000), as mocky points out ( http://trilema.com/2018/algorithmics-problem-seeking-experts/#comment-126524 , and as i say, this advantage is indeed very slught)
mircea_popescu: i can't right off conjure a reason why he'd care.
asciilifeform: i dun know enuff about the game, but is it possible that player might prefer e.g. 173/177 to 174/175 etc
mircea_popescu: i don't see a problem with it, from a gameplay perspective.
mircea_popescu: ave1 eulora is very slim margin, losing as much as 1% could take you out entirely. think in terms of closed systems, such as "what is acceptable oxygen loss in space station" or i guess http://trilema.com/2016/what-lasts-forever/ etc discussions of prices and value
ave1: It does not matter if the two piles are mixed in the end (the loss will always be the same). But I'll have to start playing to get to why you'll want to this specific end state.
ave1: Aha, I refactored the code to end as soon as possible, turning that back I get the same answer too.
asciilifeform: i was working from old coad
mircea_popescu: i expect.
ave1: btw, retrying what I did and so far could not regenerate cycle, so for all could have been a bug
asciilifeform: i prefer my grandfather's corrupted ver lol
ave1: Yes, the whole thing is not guaranteed to finish (I used different sorting algorithms and even got cycles)
mircea_popescu: (and, for the esthlos of the present and they of the future, the "lie-tician" was a reference to lie groups, which is a sort of we-wanna-galois-too but with more symmetry, less comprehensibility and possibly much powerful-er overall. i half-expected he's going to start throwing manifolds at me or who knows what nonsense, take me out of commission for the remainder of the season.)
asciilifeform: i'ma post a proggy when i get home, currently in town
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-25#1844421 << i had it pictured in exactly these terms, looked for some cheat, but yet found none ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-25#1844412 << canhaz proof ? ( i can buy it, but suspect that can construct counter ex ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-25#1844413 << ha yea i sat down to write the proggy and realized ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-08-24 18:19 mircea_popescu: specifically, how do i pick among alternatives 1. "all stacks with odd index, left, all stacks with even index, right" and 2. "all stacks under 75 or over 125 left, all stacks within 75 to 125, right" ?
Mocky: I'm not clear on how you can backtrack piles directly though, as if they were from isolated branches, when possibly final 2 piles from mixed descent and not from isolated mixing
Mocky: i think that it can work, i don't see how it would work better than A* if heuristic was found, but I don't see how worse either
Mocky: other than not needing the guess the final state, I'm still trying to find a problem with it
lobbes: still need to test the hell out of it, so I'm aiming for maybe a week (which, still gives me 2 months for auctionbot ETL. eh. will see)
lobbes: I've tried to design it to be 'modular' so that the operator can easily add their own custom commands, and to be 'vpatch friendly' in that folx can release 'whateverbot' as a vpatch that just extends it (in fact, this is my plan for the auctionbot)
a111: Logged on 2016-08-29 13:54 trinque: right. in this case I challenge anyone to find a need for a second patch on those modules themselves, rather than creating a genesis vpatch for their own module which talks to the db in postgres.
lobbes: in fact, was going to announce: I'm getting closer to finishing what will be a genesis for a 'logbot-command-router' in python that does the talking and listening with postgres (an older but relevant thread for context: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-29#1531123) ☝︎☟︎
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I don't have the complete list of assigned ip's, but from .204 through .246 should be unallocated
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'll do a count
trinque: a quick google suggests the rate for distribution of profit is lower than the rate for regular income, which is what I'd have expected, so conceivably BingoBoingo could be compensated in part through his stake in the local corp as profit
BingoBoingo: <mod6> So we might need to incorporate first. *might* << Or I can apply as a unipersonal
trinque: I hear only the states audit people too, so all the more reason :P
trinque: I dunno the tax laws down there, but might be beneficial in regards to deducting expenses?
mod6: oh, I'll have to talk to ben_vulpes and read the logs on that. thanks for the nudge.
mod6: I haven't even considered IP registration.. was there a inititive to get a block of our own from ICANN?
