mircea_popescu: im not sure what his idea of level was, prolly not
too strictly defined.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform my idea of "level" was "all patches
taking a certain hash as input"
assbot: Logged on 09-02-2016 14:57:13; mircea_popescu: PeterL> or am I
totally confused? << a patch can only be safely applied
to its antecedent.
two patches at
the same level CAN NOT be both applied by definition.
mircea_popescu: well
the feature isn't interesting in itself, other
than for
this discussion.
mircea_popescu: and if you want everyone
to change his, you are basically building on promise.
mircea_popescu: that is not hte protocol,
that is
the spec of one implemen
tation among many
mircea_popescu: this nailing down... stick
to nailing
the mechanical gfs. reality has no holes.
mircea_popescu: why should a
tool become a means by which you may pretend
to enact determinism out of absent such ?
mircea_popescu: the notion itself, of
the basis you propose, seems
to me problematic.
mircea_popescu: i don't want anything, whatsoever. and i still don;t care what
the effects would be.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
this is nonsense. by
that rule you should hang.
PeterL: this morning we had a bit of snow, I slid about 10 yards past
the entrance
to work, antilock brakes kicked in, had
to shift
to reverse and go back
to
turn into parking lot
BingoBoingo: If alarm was raised in
time
those drivers would have normally stayed home, but because
they were not explicitly
told road is slick all suffer
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: Yes. Very little snow, but enough
to cull weakest drivers.
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo: aha. so even
there you'll see cars in ditches with people
telling cops "i dunno what happened, i just slippped and ended up in here"
mod6: to asciilifeform's point
tho, i'm not
too sure what even exists in
the lxr
thing, and if is congruent with what's in
the V mirror
thestringpuller: BingoBoingo: I'd expect midwesterners
to know how
to drive in snow belt weather... Here we get 2 inches,
the roads freeze and everyone freaks out like its
The Walking Dead or some shit.
mircea_popescu: like it or not, part of us, like
the iliterate mother part of napoleon.
assbot: Logged on 09-02-2016 14:17:35; ben_vulpes: PeterL:
the list of patches gets alphasorted before
toposorting in all implementations i've seen
to date.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aha, it is
the source of where it starts.
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: Roads here are clusterfuck because no one could anticipate 2nd round of snow coming
this morning
shinohai: I have snow here as well, just strong flurries nothing
to write home about.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: is it blizzarding like dairy queen up
there
ben_vulpes: and not worry about
the delicate internals
ben_vulpes: if it's made of METAL i want
to HIT PEOPLE WITH IT
ben_vulpes: i am a barbarian
though and it must be my fault somehow for expecting my
tools
to be robust
ben_vulpes: leading edge just
torso-ward of
the hands starts chipping after some
time
ben_vulpes: pretty standard decomposition pattern i
think now
ben_vulpes: it has *chips* out of it asciilifeform,
thank you for asking.
mod6: <+shinohai> mod6: new
trb is at height 284171 << good deal,
thanks for reporting :]
mircea_popescu: and
this matters in
the sense
that ximenez of spain really was interested in whether
the witch had or hadn't orgasmed with
the devil.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu> ben_vulpes you know for everyone from europe public school = best school. private school is where people with money send
their retarded offspring
to keep up
the pretense. <- +1
to
that; I might add
the only exception
to
this rule I found in northern Italy where "private" meant in fact province (autonomous, German-speaking-and-doing province) funded
mircea_popescu: the discussion is whether
the cause is problematic or not.
mircea_popescu: "shitting i nthe soup is not a problem, not all
the floating
turds are mine!"
assbot: Logged on 09-02-2016 13:55:09; mircea_popescu: it's all fine and dandy, makes up
the very characteristic weird we've come
to love under
the label alf, but do not expect it's a consideration (or even meaningful) for anyone else.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes> doubt i'll get
to it
today
tho << "there's all
this delicious administrative shit
to fuck around with early, who has
time for codings!!!"
shinohai: mod6: new
trb is at height 284171
mod6: anyway, will re-walk
through
this all again
tonight, etc.
then will sign and send
to ML.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: yea, my P4
that's overclocked has had
the best performance in bootstrapping.
mod6: ben_vulpes: here's a peek at
the squshed beta 1 & beta 2 vpatches - unless something changes between now and
tonight, i'll be sending
this one
to
the ML. All you need
to do
to apply is get V [v99996], copy `v.pl'
to `v.pl.v99996`,
then place
this patch in
the same dir and do: `patch -p0 < V_v99995_beta2.vpatch` and give it a go
shinohai: I used
to get pm's from Vexual EVRY GODDAMNED SATURDAY
BingoBoingo: shinohai: Just wait for vexual
to hit your pm's
shinohai: Is
there an official court jester post?
assbot: You rated user phf on 24-Jun-2015, with a rating of 2, and supplied
these additional notes: Fixed our boxen!.
thestringpuller: trinque: I
think you're right about
the whole SSD
thing. I'm going
to resync on my giga-box for more
tests, but it seems bootstrapping performance is increased more by adding SSD
than adding more CPU's (unless you're adding like 20 cores
to
the
thing but even
then)
phf: hehe, my +v workhorse rating,
ty ben_vulpes
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes wasn't a matter of [person who was once branded a lord] [can have seat back for asking]. it was a matter of [person who was born with
the mettle and greatness of being a lord] [can have a seat whether
they had one or never did just by basically existing in
their grandiose state].
ben_vulpes: PeterL: i was
thinking about a deadbot- !
assbot: You rated user phf on 16-Apr-2014, with a rating of 1, and supplied
these additional notes: lisper..
mircea_popescu: PeterL no such
thing!
they can self-apply
that, easy enough
to verify.
ben_vulpes tries
to reconcile 'lord can have seat back for asking' with
the booting of fluffypony and nubbins`
punkman: opinions: +1
to both additions. would be nice
to see artifexd return. fluffy and nubbins can keep
their lordships unless
they wish
to abdicate.
mod6: i updated alot of
the automate
tests, and added a number of
them,
to ensure
that i didn't regress anywhere. so far, seems good.
mircea_popescu: it's funny how good education ~always~ comes down
to a woman with a whip.
phf: but
the school was already selective, was ran by a strong Georgian woman. if you didn't perform would get a visit with
the principle. "your child will have a very hard
time next year. a ~very~ hard
time. we advise you move schools immediately". i know because my parents got
the
talk once or
twice
mod6: shipping? it'll just be a whole bundle once we do a bit of
testing -- but
tonights patch will be a squashed patch of
the one from last week, and
the additional changes here.
shinohai: thx phf and congrats
to all who have made
the Lord's list.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman actually
the way it played out was imo
the best possible outcome.
diana_coman: aha,
the 8 class
thing would've been a great
thing
though
mircea_popescu is vaguely envious of phf's adolescentine paradise. i expect
they were all lanky slav coughars with uncharacteristically large
tits for
that
type, and spent a lot of
time doing stuff in
the nude
mod6: if/when you can get
the new patch applied, give it a
try and let me know.
thx.
phf: there was a slightly different ratio in
the B class, which was everyone who didn't make
the A class.
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> press a patch without hashes in
the headers << i've actually got
that one covered in
the patch im about
to put out
there
tonight.
mircea_popescu: and so
the highschool admitted 17 more people into it, off
the end of
the list.
diana_coman: after which
they proceeded
to bash us
that "you will end up washing
the floors in supermarkets"
mircea_popescu: diana_coman
the way
this worked was, "gpa over X", which meant 8 people out of
the region.
then everyone went into
the normal-great classes. but
THEN it came word from
the miniostry
that
they won't run a class for 8 people
