bvt: 2. by tty model of linux, you don'
t pull data using tty driver, the driver pushes the data though several abstraction layers. i would have grok this stuff as well. there is at least one other driver that needs this functionality (for connecting a screenreader to a tty), so i can figure out stuff by looking at what it does.
snsabot: Logged on 2018-06-12 20:54:54 mircea_popescu: anyway, your design is dysfunctional in that (even allowing for it modelling somewhat close to reality, which i have no faith it does) suppose today someone gives you a working pill, and june 27th google patches the hole. and the someone says "dood, i have nfi, i honestly didn'
t tell anyone anything".

mircea_popescu: wouldn'

diana_coman: feedbot is extremely useful to track all the comments + posts, basically I switched all to it and it's working great so far; there was the deluge of the after-break stuff coming in today but it's not a big issue (and it didn'
t choke on it either so all good)
diana_coman: mircea_popescu: come to think of it, the "cloud of tags" is the closest thing to the above in that it changes indeed as content is added; I don'
t recall if it provides direct link to articles but at least it reflects the content as is
diana_coman: true; though it does get added gradually anyway and they don'
t really expect to know upfront *everything* that will be added
diana_coman: yes; and ofc there isn'
t any such thing or we'd have used it, no?
mircea_popescu: that's why nobody has a working system : 1. any meaningful interpretation of "categories" reduces to "tags", so even though implementations give "the choice" it is a dud choice ; and 2. any meaningful implementation of tags requires they change with the blog, whereas every implementation presumes to enter them at the time of publishing (which coincidentally but harmfully overlaps with the "don'
t alter history" imperative)
diana_coman: they do, as they reflect the material put in; but I don'
t see a problem with a third person deciding to categorize trilema with whatever tags they think greatest and provide the resulting tags + links as their view of it, what
mircea_popescu: eg the trilema article i quoted above : i had fully forgotten about. not in the sense that i don'
t recognize it when i see it, i do, but in the sense that when i penned
http://trilema.com/2019/black-or-white-the-day-of-saturday/ which needed it, i did recall to put it in. i've meanwhile corrected this and added the link, but i am certain there's THOUSANDS of such "actually mp, the item you'd link here is this" "oh shit you
mircea_popescu: this augments the ai with human mind, but then again also limits it -- you won'
t find what you didn'
t put in.
diana_coman: the exact approach/algo is the iffy bit re tags but probably won'
t be able to just come up with it directly working great
mircea_popescu: btw, don'
t you find the titles-only style for archives / categories better ?
diana_coman: aha; but atm at least I can'
t seem to find it either, sadly
diana_coman: I don'

mircea_popescu: yes, that wasn'

mircea_popescu: so long as we don'

mircea_popescu: if you do, you stretch it into a "many" bytes. if you don'
t, you just prng those many bytes.
mircea_popescu: that's why the two-hash system : you either have a byte of FG, to put into O, or you don'
t.
mircea_popescu: such that it can'
t either deplete the machine entropy by reading mb/s nor can it figure out the internals by reading straight fg bytes
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-22 07:50:22 spyked: to detail: trinque's bot has a thread that pings the irc server and does lag tracking (the lag then is: pong_response_timestamp - ping_sent_timestamp); if it detects that the lag is high, then it tries to reconnect. so when feedbot spends a lot of time in the notification loop, it doesn'
t receive the pong and gets disconnected.

snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-22 07:54:59 mircea_popescu: can'
t, in general speaking, when plumbing the synch-asynch divide (such as for instance tryuibng to resolve through design the impedance mismatch between non-threqaded process and synchonous messaging) commit to any activity of an open-ended length. main loop gotta know at least approximately how long each call will take, or else it can'
t make them
spyked: the downside is that now messages are going to arrive somewhat slower -- ISONs aren'
t sent too often, so as to not abuse that command; but probably not that much of a problem either way. if a user was offline for a while, then he can wait the extra minutes to receive the messages.

spyked: the fix I'm currently applying is to have feedbot send notifications in short bursts so that it doesn'
t take over the main program loop

spyked: mircea_popescu, meanwhile I found it wasn'
