mircea_popescu:
phf do you have roughly the equiv of a "feed paste in here" slit for it ?
mircea_popescu: what exactly did happen ?
phf wrote a fine v parser ; jurov sweated white hairs getting an email system into alf-tip-top shape only for it to not be used as soon as it was got to work...

phf: asciilifeform: no haven't published it, it's a big ball of mud that in the gran lisp machine tradition lives in TMSR package, along with log bot, log visualizer, log database, etc. so if there's interest in any specific parts i can extract them into library and publish, but i've not been planning on publishing the whole thing
phf: basically the tree viewer is half baked and i'm not eating my own dog food here, so i'm relying on teh public to give me feedback ("
phf fucking fix this fucking thing") which so far has not been forthcoming
a111: Logged on 2017-11-15 17:19 asciilifeform: this item calls for something like
phf's v-viewer
mircea_popescu:
phf in the sense that they were trying to sell the machines, but avoid as much of the dev work as humanly possible ?
mircea_popescu:
phf i had the idea cadr more of a common ancestor, to smbx too.

phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-14#1737529 << that doesn't sound right, read and eval are distinct phases, by the time you get to eval you shouldn't be operating with strings when but instead with interned symbols (i.e. things that can be eq'd in lisp and pointer equivalent on c machine level)

phf: ideally i'd get rid of Ada.Strings , full stop

phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-13#1737247 << it looks like a properly structured scheme evaluator, but it's ~explicitly~ lacking a native cons, which might be a very good exercise for whoever™ adding a static allocation space, adding mark-and-sweep, then all those To_Unbounded_String look like they can be simply search/replaced

phf: contrary to appearances, asciilifeform is not fixated on ada lang per se, but rather on the style of thinking it leads the operator into.
pete_dushenski:
phf: i can see that. also, asciilifeform likely has a crate with spinning rust hdd's containing a vault's worth of digital tomes.
BingoBoingo: !~later tell
phf tyvm, moving blockindex.dat over the local network fixed the issue. More nand for the burn pile.

phf: asciilifeform: i thought maybe the design was some historic artifact, but no, none of the cads i looked at (including fucking cmu's NS, which is probably first or second cad in existence) had that split.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-04 14:45 asciilifeform: ( incidentally the other day asciilifeform finally met
phf in meatland )

phf: scussions, but also any kind of attempt at crypto communication. there was nothing to say all along.

phf: romania zero muslim! what is this!
diana_coman:
phf, ahh, bidet, right; tbh that made me instantly think of Italy and it would fit womenz (if south) but I kind of crossed out EU to start with

phf: asciilifeform: it's not a fun game, because there's not any kind of hook to go buy. "great coffee and beautiful women" is not it
mircea_popescu:
phf hahaha no such thing. throughout arab world, most of turkey included, the standard toilet includes a water spit pipe ~where the watertrap is. with special fauced accessible whiole seated.

phf: a programmer had a serial problem, "i know, i'll use usb to serial", now he had two problems
diana_coman:
phf, quite; basically "white squiggles" from his point of view atm really; he noticed the letters, yes, because those he recognises as symbols but otherwise in any case, screws and cables way more interesting
shinohai: Well thanks
phf .... that's enough internet for me today.
mircea_popescu:
phf who the fuck is some tool named david know or have to say about "ruble" anyway

phf: but at the same time it's handy strawman: ~web of trust~ is broken, because our take on it is a piece of shit. i thought that's some pantsuit pattern discussed elsewhere
mircea_popescu:
phf just about same here. i particularily enjoy situations where the "group expert" in "new trends" brings bitcoin to the group. particularily if 20something female.

phf it's good that wired uses
https to protect its readers. for instance it protected me from reading or archiving it, which i estimate to be a value add.
mircea_popescu:
phf you never commented on how dumb/palatable the `tag:url thing is to your eye.

phf: mondo 2000, the proto valley crowd, i think we had the thread. basically, jwz.
mircea_popescu:
phf hand mollifies in solitude. to toughen must expose.
spyked:
phf ty for lisp in small pieces reference. will look through it.
mircea_popescu:
phf if you had a blog and time you could sit down to do the whole discussion of that so as to inform future policymaking above and beyond simple amoebic continuation.
mircea_popescu:
phf i dun think they got off cloudflare tbh, this looks like exactly the sort of crap.
spyked:
phf, nope. ro. so... let's try some more dns servers.

phf: i think ascii already made that point, that if you're profiling lisp with the vm startup, then you should also profile c machine from boot time. at the very least the vm should be warmed up by loading all the dependencies into the core, doing save-lisp on it, and then making sure that your foo.lisp has an up to date fasl. inside lisp though to achieve the optimizations you run variants of your function inside (time ...) until you bring it within the ra
