trinque: command is a dumb string until the OTP is confirmed, and then gets parsed and certain type demands are made of the result
trinque: but, I would recommend a student go build his own by hand. doing so by reading my script would be fine, so long as you research every line to understand why that step was done.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform he has a point, javascript is fulla it.
trinque: gentoo'd be a fine choice
douchebag: What distro would you suggest doing a fresh install on?
asciilifeform: this is why work with 'web applications before' is catastrophically terrible for yer health, douchebag . it is like building a wrestling career against kindergarteners.
mircea_popescu: (as you might intuit, i was a terror as a 5yo being introduced to darwinism. "so why did the other birdy quit ?" "well the guy was bigger." "so ?" "so he's affraid of him." "why ?" "because he's bigger." "So what if he's bigger ? what could he do ? just flies around like an idiot" "could peck it" "so could the smaller one!" and on and on.)
mircea_popescu: part and parcel of the problem of postmodernity, and the deep cause behind all the superficiality, is that nobody ever gets a run for his money. like in overadvanced (supercowardly) species, the whole contest of life consists of display and nothing more.
phf: mircea_popescu: let's revisit this question in a couple of days, i'll give it some thought too. i want to finish regrind in the next day before hanbot is done with standing up her mp-wp instance
asciilifeform: fwiw my format will actually eat bins without problem. ( you would still need a tool to 'human-display' them. and a differ other than unix diff. but the 'crystal' format holds arbitrary bytes, noprob )
mircea_popescu: "ulrich drepper's famous page on". famous ? really ? how the FUCK is anything drepper did even vaguely worth the mention, let alone "famous" ? oh, because pantsuits push it, ie http://trilema.com/2012/a-conversation-with-frank-zappa-ix/#selection-231.0-233.634 ? hurr!
phf: mircea_popescu: it doesn't now, there's no reason why it can't, diffing binaries is a different beast from text diffing, so it's about adding a new kind of hunk/header formats that say "this here follows a binary diff"
phf: there's an implicit inbandism in unified diff though, which is the requirement for diff to be a POSIX "text file", so you still have arbitrary, and unknowably, large "lines"
mircea_popescu: it's just... jesus christ i am at a loss to comprehend what the problems involved are. fuck me, i'm working on an ai sex bot to fetlife ? really ?
mircea_popescu: a. yes.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform seems to me a correctly designed and properly implemented version of trinque 's original doodle, which he summarily described as "bundle all files together and hash" ☟︎
asciilifeform: ( i would not even bother posting it, but it does cure inbandism, and afaik nobody else has proposed of a way to )
mircea_popescu: and so you check the dood's bio, and "I currently work at Ozlo, where we’re building an AI-powered digital assistant. Previously, I worked at Firebase, a scalable realtime application backend. Before that, I worked on a wide range of experimental projects to improve the web at Mozilla Labs."
mircea_popescu: meanwhile otherplaces, "shared libraries are obviously a good idea until you’ve actually used them. then whether it’s obvious or not that they’re a bad idea is mostly a matter of how close you are to trying to get them to work." such a great share that anant thing.
mircea_popescu: yes, the idea was to make a "reorg" patch separately if you're going to move files about.
asciilifeform: this scheme would however lock you into not ever both moving and modifying a given file, if you want the diff to be compact
mircea_popescu: file a/hurr/durr.txt hash aba1 matches file b/hurr/hurr.txt hash aba1, durr.txt was renamed as hurr.txt (renaming and moving are, like norton commander correctly identified, the SAME op. it's all a namechange.)
mircea_popescu: this is where we admit that while the alternative solution presented passes on technical merits, nevertheless the thing it's an alternative to has much better political support. i ~want~ to require people to say a word about their patch, for human eyes.
mircea_popescu: basically you add all files into a temp together, space-separated ?
asciilifeform: ( tldr : it's a demo of a guaranteed-cure for the infamous ' moving mpi dir ' misery . )
BingoBoingo: Easily squeezed a couple ounces of fluid from my sinuses in the first few minutes pursuing nasal stability
BingoBoingo: And a fuck ton of boric acid apparently
asciilifeform: nah, that's ~last~ decade. ~this~ decade nobody's even seen one that sold a half-believable dose of flimflam.
mircea_popescu: anyone wanna move there, build a stronghold ?
mircea_popescu: "3x as many male managers are now uncomfortable mentoring women in the wake of #MeToo. This is a huge step in the wrong direction. We need more" << roflmao.
mircea_popescu: the notion there exists a fiatola bitcoin price was due for a trashing anyway ; part and parcel of a collection of quaint nonsense like the flat earth on turtles and the predictive power of phrenology.
mircea_popescu: rape is only when a white boy on campus gets his nerve up to say hi
mircea_popescu: "Qaisar Mahmood, a Muslim born in Pakistan, is the new head of the Swedish National Heritage Board." He admits "he has not read anything about Sweden’s cultural heritage." << bwahahaha
mircea_popescu: (npm is a package manager for javascript)
mircea_popescu: imagine, dacia good, bmw and audi bad. a whole generation of dead romanians would cream SO HARD if they could see this.
mircea_popescu: but anyway, in between "here's what the french atlantic said about german cars, bmw is worst ever" and retweets of "Having kids to give life meaning creates more lives that need meaning. Basically it’s a Ponzi scheme." he did entertain me for a few minutes, so not all is lost.
mircea_popescu: basically cuck rage, but of a platonic rather than sexual nature.
mircea_popescu: tl;dr : "superior" & "civilized" romanian (ie, exactly http://trilema.com/2017/in-case-you-were-wondering-where-all-the-worthless-nuland-drones-ended-up/ ) "does not like trilema" because "how dares the ney work times advertise it!! imagine, i was reading there like a good nuland drone, and what do they show me ? trilema!!! THE EVIL BADGUY FROM MY COUTRY!!! THE WHOLE PANTSUIT SYSTEM IS BREAKING DOWN!!!111"
mircea_popescu: in other items of kibo-interest, salted roasted pistachios with milk make for a splendid breakfast. you shell a few, you take a swig ; you take a swig, you shell a few.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and the idea is to keep a spare there in any case, even if we don't use it for anything, "to make up for lost time", live a little as it were ?
mircea_popescu: we have a main which is going to be the nsa / phuctor main machine and 3 spares was it ? or 2 ?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: once upon a time there was an s.nsa expense line for ~"servers for nascent isp", would you sell one or both of those to pizarro?
BingoBoingo: In other news, I think an Incan gave me a cold
mircea_popescu: "oh, but how does one know something's random noise afore the fact ? isn't that begging the question ?" you can't establish something is random ~after the fact~, nitwit, randomness is not a property of the string ~but of the method that produced it~. therefore, it's random noise because it comes out of an unknown source, duh!

mircea_popescu: certainly a fine residual incentive for lord to maintain logotron -- get the ability to reference castle logs in here.
lobbes: btw I'm loving this multi-chan log-quote ability ben_vulpes. I bet this becomes a soft requirement for logotron relevancy as the peripheral 'castles' continue to be added/populated
lobbes: ^^ q1 auction bot billz (slow quarter!). Mainly for accounting purposes; no rush on collecting due to eulora servers being down and the fact that the sums are a mere 96 satoshi each ☟︎

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-01#1791929 << this is a megaspoofclassic, i actually have it in dead tree ☝︎
mircea_popescu: want me to generate a sitemap for you or ?
mircea_popescu: "HOWEVER YOU CAN'T SUE ME FOR SAYING ANY OF THIS BECAUSE IF YOU SUE ME YOU'D HAVE TO QUOTE ME IN COURT AND THEN I'D SUE YOU FOR QUOTING THIS COPYRIGHTED (C) MESSAGE!!! MY COUSINS ARE ALL LAWYERS !!!!!" <<< turns out the whole SOPS thing actually originated as a usenet joke.
douchebag: any suggestions for becoming a part of this exlclusive club without getting caught
douchebag: mircea_popescu: are you a member of the mile high club

a111: Logged on 2018-03-26 14:08 mircea_popescu: https://steemit.com/introducemyself/@anonymint/introspection-interlude << in other bizarre. maybe someone point out to the dude that there's a 2 and a 5 in any 10, and since the 5 is in short supply n! will have one zero for each 5, two for each 25 and 3 for each 625, meaning 1000! will have 200 + 80 + 1.
mircea_popescu: it's somewhat of a companion to the "what's changed" piece
BingoBoingo: http://www.kibo.com/style/kibo-style.css << This is a beauty
BingoBoingo: Or a bunker to feed while they wait for Kim Jung to save them
BingoBoingo: Contemplate GTFO? Nah they have a zombie apocalypse to wait for.
mircea_popescu: and they believe, because that's what it means to be a retard : you trust your parents. even the ones that whore you out since you were 3yo.
BingoBoingo: Last Sunday I had the priviledge of seeing one of the little monsters dive into the foot of a male probably relative (can't tell if cuck or father) and got himself good and kicked in the head while tripping the victim.
BingoBoingo: True. Still not sure where all the children come from here, but they sure do love making a show out of torturing their parents.

mircea_popescu: the ONLY reason lamp is even fucking useful, at all, is that the idiots in charge of the shitmachine got a web thing that could be cooked in ~2 hours.
mircea_popescu: and moreover, when you tell me it's gonna be a day a week ago and then send your people on an insane mission through the jungle to build you a mountaintop aircraft submarine, you'd better fucking say something.
mircea_popescu: mysql has a permissions structure, why not fucking use it.
mircea_popescu: now look here you nutjobs. mysql run once per user is WORSE a situation than the kernel run once per user. both apache and mysql are made to be one-for-all. this is not something you can negotiate by yourselves on the quiet in a day.
ben_vulpes: cutting through a bunch of vines that the rest of the worlds use of vm's has let grow over useful, low-overhead tech.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform discovered that it is impossible to get a per-user fastcgi hosting arrangement in place, as both apache and i believe nginx desperately want root
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-03-29 16:45 asciilifeform: i would like to prove that 1995-style unixdir 'a la static' hosting is possible today, and with mp's php.
mircea_popescu: they actually had a great pirogi place in gdansk but i don't remember it now. somewhere downtown.
mircea_popescu: it's a shitty sea though. but better than nothing i guess.
douchebag: Can't wait to try some of the foods - and my girlfriend is a great cook and loves cooking for me
mircea_popescu: sounds like a sound plan you got, check out the euro hussies, find a spot to settle down somewhat.
a111: Logged on 2017-09-30 20:05 mircea_popescu: the only extra hole in my hide i acquired through ricochet under car, nearly lost a knee.
douchebag: Fucked up thing about my situation, a week prior I was at a different gas station and bullets went flying there. Didn't get hit
mircea_popescu: that's still a mystery.
douchebag: mircea_popescu: I've got bullet fragments lodged in my leg due to a driveby shooting at a gas station
mircea_popescu: douchebag you ever saw tlp btw ? i guess you might enjoy. iirc he also lived somewhere great-lakes-ish. even got held up by a "patient" once
douchebag: I don't know a single person who doesn't use drugs here. Whether it be weed or shotting heroin up your arm
mircea_popescu: who could have predicted (tm) that "we'll make an economy out of doing each other's laundry" nonsense will soon devolve of "we're stuck here, crabs in a pot, trying to sling an array of pointless dopes on each other".
mircea_popescu: imagine if they had to man the pacific fleet today. what the fuck, 1 mn draftees per ship, shoot 10k a day for rank failure.
douchebag: Working at a bar bussing tables, working at a furniture store moving boxes, working at a shipping facility, working at a security firm
mircea_popescu: trinque consider this lulzy angle -- in 1940 they could get a few hundred to about 1200 or so young men to go up on a boat. wake up every day, clean the deck, no girls for two years.
douchebag: Well, every job I have ever applied to - I got the job. It doesn't seem to be a lack of jobs, it's a lack of will to work like a normal person
mircea_popescu: douchebag the "no jobs -- nothing useful for normie to do" is a statistical argument, can't be invalidated by example.
mircea_popescu: so yes, obviously dudes will go about enforcing the chaining on the state-supported breeder cows. what the fuck else, "go to new york to be a writer" ?
mircea_popescu: used to be that any stiff capable of walking could get a job. there are NO jobs now. nobody with an iq under 150 is or can be useful for anything ; except of course if female for the http://trilema.com/2016/an-immodest-proposal/#selection-53.0-71.1 purpose
mircea_popescu: well, net access compressed the space of perceived possibility. 1949 people read about a murder done for 50k and thought it made sense. today's kids think a job that doesn't pay 1mn a year isn't really worth getting out of bed ; let alone good enough to commit murder.
douchebag: Every black just seems to think their only chance for success is to become a famous rapper, and if they're not a famous rapper they choose to sell drugs instead of working a real job
douchebag: I have a house full of crack dealers who just moved in adjacent to me
douchebag: This was a somewhat decent town when I was growing up, there were still the bad sides of town. But now there's homeless people EVERYWHERE, drug addicts, gang members, ect..
mircea_popescu: seems to be the common experience of a lot of people.
douchebag: Just not happy here anymore, haven't been for a long time. It's not a good sight to see everything going to hell and there's nothing I can do about it except leave
douchebag: I have a full time job working remotely, so I'll be just fine over there
mircea_popescu: a
douchebag: Going to end up getting citizen and whatnot once I find a place to settle down
mircea_popescu: so what, become a gypsy ?
mircea_popescu: hey, there's a whole facade riddled with bullet holes in downtown timisoara
