asciilifeform: also for BingoBoingo , ben_vulpes , other usaschwitz inmated, i will point out that the experience cost me about $2 .
mircea_popescu: anyway, back to the bait and switch thing. reddit started life as a sort of 4chan with a jump, ie the little girl's not on the page, but you have to click. this wasn't accidental, because their phase 2 ("growth phase" eh) consisted of the exact value proposition : add your crap to reddit, watch people click on it. once growth stopped they dropped the bait, switched to "we will control the conversation in this ever-so-importan ☟︎

BingoBoingo: I prefer racis jap 2-cycle prowess to roll over and ethnic suicide Swedes
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform 2-3 decades seem quite likely, indeed.
asciilifeform: i dunno if this is because 0.5 autos per capita here instead of 2.5, or because they shoot cornsyropists in the head here, or why, but phakt.

mircea_popescu: fwiw, trilema serves 1-2 terrabytes each month.
mircea_popescu: our conversation today has distilled a golden bible of happy pet-taking. it goes like so : rule #1, do not presume to take decisions for the animal, it's capable for itself. rule #2, do not presume to put up a show for the animal, its sense of smell is fine by nature.

asciilifeform: also i'm open to shipping something other than pl2303, if anyone has suggestions. ftdi is BANNED because 1) it costs 10x moar than pl2303 2) it is american/tw 3) it has rewritable fw that cannot be disabled
diana_coman: apparently there are 2 adapters namely ps2303 and ps2303x; incompatible; same vendor id and product id though
diana_coman: 2. on same cable, screen reads ...
asciilifeform: 2) then switch back, and switch only the cables.
asciilifeform: sooooo recently asciilifeform bought a 1990s-style electrodictionary for a language . and like any 1990s gadget, it also 'is a phone book, and organizer' and other misc rubbish , and this rubbish functionality required a DIFFERENT calibre of watch battery from the 2 main 3v cells. and would whine that 'memory batt low' etc, while draining main cells in MINUTES after insertion:
asciilifeform: 'Romania fucked up literally everything in World War 2. They lost Transylvania to their allies. The Romanian government hated Jews, tried to exterminate them, but then realized that their economy couldn’t survive without them. '

mircea_popescu: it was very much what you'd expect (somewhat anachronistically) of a "silk road 2.0" these days ; replete with moderators scamming users, various independent activities (what the usg calls illegal) and so forth.
ben_vulpes: 2.5k of which is the bw charge

apeloyee: so every time you calc an exp you calc 2 and 3 also ? << at the very start, once.
mircea_popescu: so every time you calc an exp you calc 2 and 3 also ?
apeloyee: no special cases. you precalc Base**0 = 1, Base**1 = Base, Base**2 and Base**3; assign 1 to result. then you take two next bits from exponent, starting with the most significant; take B to their power, as above, and multiply Result by B
apeloyee: ah. I made an error.BaseModSquare and BaseModCube are Base**2 mod Modulus and Base**3 mod Modulus
apeloyee: muliply-and-reduce is so expensive that 2-bit windows ought to win something.
apeloyee: let's suppose B is a temporary, WindowLSB and WindowMSB are bits of 2-bit fixed window, One is, well, 1, BaseModSquare and BaseModCube are B**2 mod Modulus and B**3 mod Modulus. the posted snippet then assigns to B the power (2*WindowMSB+WindowLSB) of Base. See, we index the memory by a (small) secret!
