_popescu: none of this stuff CAN be fixed.
davout: mircea
_popescu: iirc there was one locktime thing that was there from day 1
mats: mircea
_popescu: no, i wish
davout: no more "oh, but the transaction you're attempting doesn't match min fee $magic
_number"
davout: mircea
_popescu: yeah, i meant it as a separate, user-initiated step
ben_vulpes: mircea
_popescu: we're cramming a year+ of wallet into davout's head now that he's paying attention again
davout: asciilifeform: ben
_vulpes has it
davout: mircea
_popescu: ok, "forbid-insane-fee" then
davout: yeah, ben
_vulpes told me in your very chan, if i can help it i'd be happy to, it does sound like a pretty good starting point for me to hack on trb
davout: ok, ~/blox/ass
_to
_mouth.rb is working, we'll see how that goes
jurov: ben
_vulpes et al.: how you want to present this in lxr? or are there more steps?

_vulpes: jurov: would you be so kind as to update the lxr with makefiles.vpatch ?
phf: mircea
_popescu: rds is amazon's hosted relational database solution(tm) which is a postgresql on a unixbox
jurov: mircea
_popescu: yes, but most of www can live with crashing database (even innocent reading can cause sigsegv, sadly)

_popescu: jurov no ; but i am fine with wwwtron ocasionally reading a field that has meanwhile been updated, and giving old, of an unspecified age but less than x time.

_popescu: you would trade speed for occassionally getting garbage when you call read()?
a111: Logged on 2016-12-30 17:29 mircea
_popescu: exactly how the statements {"do not allow anyone else to write here until i say" ; "let anyone read anything at any time"} amount to an "unsolved problem in cs" ? and wtf cs is this we speak of, sounds more like chewinggum-science.
jurov: mircea
_popescu: this is the problem with c machine, that everythign is pointer, and without preemptive locking, you can't distinguish your pointer points to merely stale data vs. garbage
jurov: mircea
_popescu: in this case asciilifeform categorically claimed he decided to have consistency, or are you deciding otherwise?
mircea_popescu: phf here's the problem : moder(field) consists of take field, redefine it in a practically useless but superficially persuasive way, then bad
_words() to whoever dares ask if your "field" solves any important questions in the field. because of course it doesn't, MIT is the premier institution in science(*) and technology(*) in the werld.

_popescu: that's not quite what i'm saying.
davout: mircea
_popescu: seems to me like it would reduce to 'moving the problem'
phf: mircea
_popescu: i'm not quite groking what the bad write is. are you saying that instead of intermingling writes and reads, you should batch them, and not write while you're reading?
davout: ah yeah, i'm currently syncing off ben
_vulpes, i was wondering if dumping blocks from prb and then eating them with trb would work
phf: mircea
_popescu: yes, ~having to deal with locks~ happens past the limit of db designer's competence
phf: mircea
_popescu: sop outside of mysql world. dirty read is considered a liability, so whole point of db systems design is to ensure that you don't hit locks when you shouldn't.
phf: asciilifeform: no, it's a command that you run, like REINDEX index
_of
_things; it simply queries what's already in DB and warms up the cash
