ben_vulpes: but no, no error checking, compile-time inspection of funcall arity correctness,
type management of any sort
ben_vulpes: tentacles
to wrap around
the webstack
today.
mod6: who needs
to handle errors anyway
ben_vulpes: it's an entirely adequate lisp-alike on
the jvm for webshit
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: in a sense.
there's a $shitlang conference up
there
this weekend, and
the meatwot has graciously coughed up some introductions.
mod6: basically, im just gonna end up creating a sandbox - inflate v054 from V, and
throw in
trinque's makefiles and start doing what needs doing.
ben_vulpes: i'm beating
the streets of seattle for more work all weekend, but i'll
try.
mod6: so we're
talking between 17:00 and 19:30 PDT
ben_vulpes: same same ish
tomorrow? might be hard.
mod6: ok it's 19:10 / 7:10 pm
there now ben_vulpes?
mod6: might be a bit early for ben_vulpes, but he'll probably catch us on
the
tail end.
mod6: eh, what
time you got
there right now? 22:05?
mod6: i agree, a bit of a plan would be good. hold me
to something i
think.
mod6: during
the day has been horrid for me for
the last ~3 weeks. but, will
try
to stop in
tomorrow night and discuss a bit.
mircea_popescu: is
tomorro workable ? i'm mostly around all
teh
time so no biggy for me. or better later in week ? fri ? sun ?
mod6: yeah, i've been a bit mia because of all
this shit-shoveling i've had
to do lately.
mod6: after
the 15th, i need
to contex switch, saddle up, lock and load on
the makefile
thing and see if we can finally get
this stuff wrapped up.
mircea_popescu: prolly should have a sit down and get goals
together
tomorrow or somesuch ?
a111: Logged on 2016-04-13 17:09 mircea_popescu: but back
to more prosaic concerns, hey mod6 ben_vulpes what's gonna be in
this month's foundation report ?
mod6: you may wanna run
the same
thing, probably faster
than me rolling it up and passing
to you.
mod6: assets-log.sql.tar.gz << and
this
mod6: 1.1Gfiles.bitcoin-assets.com/ << but
there's even a movie in here, wot
tarballs, bitstamp incident report,e
tc.
mod6: i did a recursive wget on
this files.bitcoin-assets.com and alf has his own dir. lol
mod6: although, i wanna do stuff all by hand, if
that makes sense.
mod6: shinohai: ah, i've breezed
through it rather quick, yes.
mod6: so
take with grain of salt
mod6: not even sure if
this shit is at all accurate or whatnot ^
mike_c: sheesh,
that still exists
mod6: i've been doing some reading about
this lately on what I can find.
mike_c: but does
that work with 1-6 instead of binary? I mean, you could build up
the numbers binarily, but
that seems like an even bigger pain
than buying fancy dice
mod6: huh,
thanks for
the link. will read.
mod6: yeah, i can't seem
to determine if
they should be whitened if good rolling
techniques are used. meaning, high friction surface, bounce off wall, shake in round & covered cup, etc.
mike_c: degaussing no, I
took it as
the nuemann
thing for unreliable number smoothing
mike_c: mod6: I am not an expert and haven't
tested anything. simply word-on-the-street level info
mircea_popescu: mike_c
the idea is you know what i mean by degaussing ?
mike_c: manufacturing process. it's pretty deterministic, roll random dice x
times, roll his dice x
times, his are better
mircea_popescu: if bias is
the concern, you just degauss
them. if not bias is
the concern, wtf can he do
to improve ?
mod6: yei don't care about
the d100
mike_c: the point isn't
the d100,
the point is he makes fair dice
mike_c: linking
to 2 year old comments
mike_c: hehe,
that
threw me for a loop
mod6: mike_c: hey! qq:
those zocchi dice are
the real deal 'eh?
mike_c: and still expect it
to get hosed
mike_c: personally if doing something like
that I'd setup a read slave
mike_c: readonly access from someone
trusted enough not
to grab locks on everything? I guess
mircea_popescu: db can even be maintained in a shared, hashed, headless, distributed manner a la
torrents
mircea_popescu: im starting
to
think actually shared sql may be a very sane and deeply correct way
t ogo about
things.
mircea_popescu: mike_c
this seem like a sane interface
to you, what he's proposing ?
mike_c: ;;later
tell
trinque and yes, i <3 postgres
mod6: phf:
thx, will investigate.
mircea_popescu: comparing
the workrate differential, i'm starting
to
think
the sane
thing
to do is spin it off
to someone who actually wants
to do it and move on.
mod6: in other news,
thebitcoin.foundataion (Not including
therealbitcoin.org) has had 149k uniq requests, and 395k non-uniq requests.
mircea_popescu: i have nfi, something obscure
that's been
taking him 6 fucking months. it's beyond scandalous.
mod6: what was
the deal
there? something with
the database setup?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform>
there is a stupendous amount of work
to be done, but unfortunately i personally do not have
the free arms and legs
to do it, currently << i'd be happy if i saw
the damned phuctor already.
mod6: anyone wanna
toss me a
tarball of
the logs?
mod6: lot of good stuff on
trilema
that
takes a deeper dive
too. all
the way back
to '11 and beyond
shinohai: still a plethora of info
there
shinohai: Sure, I still read
the older stuff
mod6: i
think
the logs contain
the most relevant and interesting conversations of our
times.
mike_c: ;;later
tell
trinque dig www.btcalpha.com
mod6: i feel like a book of
them would be good
to re-read
though
shinohai: Thos #b-a logs are so large every day I can't read
them all now.
mircea_popescu: and in other news, btcbase.org larger referrer for
trilema
than log.bitcoin-assets by now.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Sorry,
that didn't
take as long as I
thought it would.
BingoBoingo: Huh, losing
the BitBet auction seems
to have hit pete pretty hard.
☟︎ shinohai hasn't yet gotten so inebriated he chopped off an ear
tho
shinohai: I have been
toning down myself of late, but do enjoy binges on special occasions. And free booze is free booze.
