a111: Logged on 2018-07-24 09:02 ben_vulpes: i'd dearly like to hear what arguments were so compelling as to turn you from the path of wifebeating, danielpbarron
danielpbarron: i agree
danielpbarron: i have the article marked private, maybe when i have a new one to link i'll ask about doing that. but i think their point was if you don't believe it anymore why even have it there?
danielpbarron: i'll have to write up the arguments made re: wife beating
ben_vulpes: "i was wrong, and the new piece lives at XXX" didn't pass muster or what ☟︎
danielpbarron: yeah i'm not a huge fan of the deleting part, but it was a point of contention among the fellowship
ben_vulpes: i'd dearly like to hear what arguments were so compelling as to turn you from the path of wifebeating, danielpbarron ☟︎
deedbot: http://danielpbarron.com/2018/do-you-know-who-i-am-now/ << Daniel P. Barron - Do you know who I am now?
asciilifeform: will admit, the only psychiatric model that makes half a sense to asciilifeform , re subj, is 'i'ma put hand in woodchipper to spite mother, that'll show' etc
asciilifeform: i fughet exactly what. iirc was something so monumentally braindamaged that nobody in his right mind would take seriously even as joke ( had, e.g. decaying coins )
asciilifeform: a+++ trololol, eh. i'm almost surprised he didn't go with the shitforks, for extra spice.
trinque: the "profile" is a giant wad of optionality about global portage state. I think the right move to make the portage-tree genesis as small as possible is to select *one* thing from the optionality, and then re-introduce options atop that as we see fit (for arm support, for example)
asciilifeform: ( i'ma guess pete_dushenski )
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-23#1837426 << aha, thing uses pre-natoization orthography ( not asciilifeform's doing, it is as i found it , as chronicled in http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2211 and in l0gz ) ☝︎
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-22#1837152 <-- ohhh yeah, /me remembers the three days of ai megapiece. I'll put this in teh queue. even a simple heuristic, e.g. ranking entries by number of matching words and displaying the one with the highest score, would be better than current dumb search. seems like a good middle point between exact matching and "statistical learning". ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 16:52 hanbot: ah, okay. i misread as gt test run.
mircea_popescu: nono. i mean, standard item used in some other application that works for this one.
mircea_popescu: eh, line from obscure movie ; unfaithful wive explains "how it happened", "i was going to get my license [meaning, driving license]" and husband asks "the whore patent ?"
asciilifeform: ( i suppose they work a+++ for the intended purpose -- printolade vacuum , dissertation mint )
mircea_popescu: i mean, the "gravity wave" folk keep doing these large arrays to "observe" whatever.
asciilifeform: ( speaking here of the drowning-water suppliers , i.e. the adelbergers, rather than the blind kittens )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: time passes, the coat of chrome , stolen from the respectables of the past, on the cuckitude, wears thinner , erry time i read something by these people, amazed at sheer wtf
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: one of the things that never ceases to fascinate me re physics crackpots, is how rarely they grasp the sheer 'unreasonable effectiveness' of making ~political~ , rather than simply technical, cuts . ( observe, i dun need to read , much less attempt to individually refute, errything the strings people shit out -- for the same reason i dun need to read gavin's code . )
mircea_popescu: "That was also my first interaction with a woman named Rachel, and we’ll get back to her later! Lot’s to cover here." bwahahaha i'm all ears
asciilifeform: danielpbarron: 'He’s heard of the Republic, hasn’t gotten around to registering a key yet. Even brought his gentoo laptop to my site this year to pick my brain. I complimented him on having GCC < 5. Thing even had Stanislav’s crapolade mask file! ' << ha.
asciilifeform: pro tip -- when recapping, use, as i did, 2x the rated voltage of old cap, last longer.
asciilifeform: ^ i still have a crate of those caps. if yer an l1 , you can have some for cost of postage.
mircea_popescu: i believe.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 20:29 mircea_popescu: so i look for busted caps, but strangely enough... there's no busted caps. AT ALL.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-22#1837260 << also relatedly, i've had busted caps where the damage was only visible through magnifying glass , tiny little hole , magic smoke released. ( luckily not the case for mircea_popescu's box , evidently, but does happen ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: currently i'm curious re why jurov's eater barfed ☟︎
asciilifeform: i dun see this in your paste
mod6: not that it matters, but the sig file is misnamed. i can just change the sigfile name.
asciilifeform: jurov's thing gets me a 'Signature verification on clearsigned text failed, discarding. Review the message in your sent mail folder for wordwrap or similar mutilations of clearsigned text' despite the fact that i used the www front end ( therealbitcoin.org/mailman/post/btc-dev ) and attached all 3 as attachment
a111: Logged on 2018-07-16 15:23 diana_coman: basically I have zlib installed and I even checked: it IS in /lib but ./configure doesn't consider it fine
asciilifeform: mod6: http://www.loper-os.org/pub/aggressive.tar.gz << and if anybody wants to tell me what i'm doing wrong.
asciilifeform: mod6: it seems to reject my clearsigned readme ( which verifies locally, i've nfi )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: interesting. tho 1 nitpick -- voltmeter quite useless for distinguishing dead bios battery, erry 3v lithium cell i've ever thrown out, measured to ~3v ( just drops to 0 if you put a load on it )
mod6: asciilifeform: hmm, alright, for now just wot paste it to me and I'll update the foundation website.
asciilifeform: mod6: hm, interestingly, i uploaded with jurov's widget, apparently silent fail
mircea_popescu: so i look for busted caps, but strangely enough... there's no busted caps. AT ALL. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: so i figure, who knows, maybe the cmos battery died, right ? it can happen, i suppose. went for the spare, but... no improvement.
mircea_popescu: would ~not even post!~. i dug up through the piles of forgotten disused shit until i found a speaker thingee. it had no beeps to make.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in sad news of hardware, i had to power down a motherboard that had been going for a long, LONG time. and then... it wouldn't come back up.
mod6: weird, i must have grabbed the wrong one from btcbase, was still binary
asciilifeform: currently i expect the great regrind of errything, is coming soon.
asciilifeform: mod6: it is already at http://btcbase.org/patches/asciilifeform_aggressive_pushgetblocks/seal/asciilifeform ; if you'd like it on ml, say, i'll post
asciilifeform: i recall, diana_coman posted re subj, 100+MB 3d lib liquishit
asciilifeform: to this day i have not found how to send email ( from either squirrel or heathen emailtron ) that doesn't mutilate line endings.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: problem turned out to be in email sending end . he 'fixed' by emplacing a www file uploader thing, which i've used ever since.
asciilifeform: i dun disagree.
mircea_popescu: i was about to say, it's about damn time we start taking http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-02#1779522 a whole lot more seriously. ☝︎
ben_vulpes: i don't even want to think about the code, compile, run loop outside of the emacs toiletron
asciilifeform: hence why i only ever get this report from him.
asciilifeform: though to be fair i'ma have to regrind all of these when we switch to modernized v.
asciilifeform: phf: ty, i'ma fix
mod6: <+phf> asciilifeform: your sig for aggressive pushgetblocks is binary << confirmed. i didn't even notice o.O
lobbes: yeah, looking like I'm gonna need to bite the bullet and learn some emacs already
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 16:56 asciilifeform: meanwhile, in re: output of archaeology dig re: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-05#1831796, and in particular http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-04#1732905 : turns out, the orig theoretical model was a 1989 su item, kostylev & astanin's 'основы сверхширокополосных радиолокационных измерений' . then in early 2000s anglo academitards picked it up, and in 2009 subj 'died' after usg dictate 'i
lobbes: problem is I can't even figure out -where- the thing is failing. Just.. silently doesn't work. I got to figure out how logging works with sbcl REPL I guess
asciilifeform: so i gather.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 16:01 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-22#1837129 << i suspect that butterfly is not quite perfect 'clean air gauge' : i've seen monarchs fluttering in the dourest cement jungles of usgistan.
asciilifeform: lulzily enuff, for own needs , usg ( they use the limba de lemn 'low probability of interception' ) prefers old-fashioned 'frequency hopping', which requires nanosecond time synchronization ( i.e. for the gps sats to work ).
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in re: output of archaeology dig re: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-05#1831796, and in particular http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-04#1732905 : turns out, the orig theoretical model was a 1989 su item, kostylev & astanin's 'основы сверхширокополосных радиолокационных измерений' . then in early 2000s anglo academitards picked it up, and in 2009 subj 'died' after usg dictate 'i ☝︎☝︎☟︎
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) ☟︎
hanbot: ah, okay. i misread as gt test run. ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2018-07-22 08:36 mircea_popescu: spyked champion level of that is -- butterflies. i had butterflies flying overhead WHILE INSIDE OCEAN.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-22#1837129 << i suspect that butterfly is not quite perfect 'clean air gauge' : i've seen monarchs fluttering in the dourest cement jungles of usgistan. ☝︎☟︎
spyked: re. dictionary, I could also add google translate, but I expect that performs badly for expressions. let's take for example...
spyked: the thing I dun get is: bucharest is (if we're to believe official stats) one of the most polluted towns in europe. so why no birds in geneva. they must do something to keep them away.
mircea_popescu: spyked champion level of that is -- butterflies. i had butterflies flying overhead WHILE INSIDE OCEAN. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: spyked wait a second, i dun follow. so it's just a word-substituter from list ?
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-21#1836965 <-- also, bucharest has a stable population of sparrows and other small birds during spring and summer (this in addition to the usual pigeons). some swallows, blackbirds, I've even seen woodpeckers at times. this in stark contrast to "civilized world" towns, where 0 birds, I've no idea what keeps them away. ☝︎
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-21#1836952 <-- atm it only knows ro-en and en-ro expressions, but I'm putting this (and other $srclang-$dstlang) in the queue. I'm curious if I can find dictionaries and put them into the proper format. ☝︎
lobbes: I'm seeing the NOTIFY messages in postgres when I insert into the outbox table, so I think the triggers are working. Log table is also getting inserts which confirms that irc/sbcl/postgres are interfacing. I'm trying to rule out any obvious things I might be missing
lobbes: trinque, ben_vulpes, I can't seem to get logbot to send messages from the 'outbox' table. Could either of you confirm that I'm entering data into the 'outbox.target' field in the right format? (e.g. does it need to be a 'raw' IRC message instead?) >> http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/lRoDB/?raw=true
asciilifeform: ( for all i know, it could still be the best example available. but, still , nuts )
trinque: in compounding ironies, I stood up my own ircd_ratbox earlier out of curiosity ☟︎☟︎
trinque: freenode is as shitty as ever, not that I'm grabbing that as a catch-all for weird behavior
mircea_popescu: i also don't know how i picked as example THE ONLY EXAMPLE
mircea_popescu: i have nfi how ; but out of the 200 or so otps one died en route.
trinque: I did nothing, the man had an OTP spare out of the many. it happens
asciilifeform: i still dunget how wot benefits from ambiguity.
asciilifeform: i dun necessarily disagree with above, but must point out possibly mislabeled reactor control, either l1-issued rating is a public event, and then really oughta be part of forum record; or otherwise it is strictly 'between us gurlz , and gotta ask erry time'; but right now n00b could not tell that it ain't meant to be entirely the former
mircea_popescu: me will link here an article he's publishing later, because "I really feel no need to be notified each time my dumb bimbo and some random loser exchange e-grams." is worthy quote.
mircea_popescu: and seriously, this "i shall use wot without talking to people" tack is self defeating. the ONLY item wot tells you is whom to ask. nothing more. absolutely nothing more.
trinque: I'll still see about narrowing the loop when I find time
deedbot: mircea_popescu rated elaineo 2 at 2017/09/26 04:47:52 << somehow manages to write unirritatingly while also academia. i have yet no theory as to how this is possible.
a111: Logged on 2018-07-20 16:49 mircea_popescu: trinque but i look : http://archive.is/2I97y#selection-12063.1-12079.110
mircea_popescu: 2/day is still pretty good, you'll be caught up before you die. i expect it's actually the natural limit
esthlos: current plan is to push the reading hard I can manage next few weeks, and get a better sense of the sustainable rate
esthlos: speaking of which asciilifeform : past two weeks have shown that 4 logs a day is unsustainable. my log reading time is not decreasing as I had hoped it would
mod6: yeah, i like this ^
mircea_popescu: i suppose this is true.
mircea_popescu: and the above, ftr, is not idle "woulda coulda". i actually did send both people and materiel, and even followed briefly in early 2000s, research expedition.
asciilifeform: re the other kind ( 'It's a forced thing, which they don't enjoy and at which they're therefore not any good, predictably enough' ) reminds me of shalamov's anecdote where 2 gulag zeks hear a call for carpenters and say 'me, me, i'ma carpenter' despite never having held a saw 'because what, any idjit can cut wood' and promptly falling into lulz
mircea_popescu: if russia went as described, i'd have likely moved there when i was looking around in early 2000s
asciilifeform: and i'll admit, it is unclear still to me where the inhabitants of '100mn sqm of hruscheba' were to be employed , fed with what. su industry imploded, the ex-su space is to this day a land of ruined factories with missing roofs , like the outskirts of timis.
mircea_popescu: this is EXACTLY like, instead of using programmable machines to talk to every girl on fetlife and enslave some, i'd use them to "start-up". because "san francisco never said it wants a bunch of enslaved women with computers".
asciilifeform: to the extent there was a logic, i suspect it was a venezuelan logic, 'washington will pay for titanium and petro, but didn't say it wants 40mil aboriginals with these'
