i would particularly like it if they would respond to their names. this approach autocompletes for one and is far more easily visually diffed, for another.

i expect the former in the form of "it was broken because of X,
i did Y to fix it, and Z to prevent it from happening again" not that you're my direct report or anything

I'll use that instead.

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-01#1786626 <--
I ran it on Debian/Adacore 2016 -- system ld is version 2.29.1, and
I expect Adacore uses that instead of its own, otherwise
I can't explain the behaviour.
I'll also give it a try on a Gentoo with same adacore. static inline should be safe from the pov of linkage, but yeah, there's a more general problem there that might benefit from a config.h/system.h or something similar. that or a
☝︎ phf: kk,
i'm using the octet one by the way.
i should try and drop in the bit level one into the current codebase just to see how that works
diana_coman: but anyway, if there is a problem there
I want to hear about it
phf:
i'm trying to establish if
i was seeing a bug, and if it sounds like
i might've been
i'll try and track it down again
phf: Sponge, presumably it should take any length bitstreams for input/output, and some value of bitrate between 1-width.
i was calling it with some 10-1000 bitstreams, and a value of bitrate somewhere around 1200
phf: diana_coman:
i was also getting some boundary issues with different bitrate issues,
i couldn't figure out if it can take any natural value, or there's some specifica subranges that
i have to stick to. when
i spot checked with values like 1200 (or whatever), it would fail deep inside absorbblock.
i'll test it again not that
i have a bit of free time and see if
i can reproduce
☟︎ phf:
i'll try my implementation against arbitrary binary data, because right now
i'm still passing in C strings essentially. (
i've discovered the null trim issue because one of the buffers ran short, and had stale data in it, so ada was getting a character, where null was expected, but the data itself didn't have anything umseemly about it)
diana_coman: anyways,
I'll publish a bit later today chapter 12 and it has the updated Hash too
diana_coman: phf, yes, meanwhile
I changed that Hash too, to use same method so that it works out of the box basically
phf: it's hard to say what might be failing without seeing the code, but
i couldn't get your Hash working out of the box (it was giving me bounadry errors out of the box),
i've not gotten back to it though
diana_coman: obviously,
I could also null-terminate specifically for this but overall
I'm not convinced anymore it's worth the mess
diana_coman: phf, hm,
I *did* use those; the trouble is that in principle the rsa stuff is *not* null terminated as such and
I couldn't get them to work properly in such case (or is it not even possible, regardless of passing the length?)
phf: diana_coman: take a look at my recent code for ada/c interop.
i've not read your C code closely, but
i think you might be missing Trim_Nul => False/Append_Nul => False on your to_c to to_ada, which would trigger sporadic exceptions in the interface code
ave1:
I will,
I will, it seems these write-ups explode in depth when doing them!
diana_coman: ave1, my current solution is to pass the length as a separate parameter indeed and in addition to actually copy octet by octet; To_C and To_Ada still fail me on occasion so
I can't really rely on them - this might be of course because
I don't fully understand them yet; in any case, please write it up, pretty please
a111: Logged on 2018-02-28 15:07 diana_coman: ave1 have you ever passed a char * from c to ada in such a way that ada actually sees the correct length for it? there is something
I don't quite understand there as To_C seems to use Target'Length so the length should be set
ave1: diana_coman: this,
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-28#1786496, triggered a short dive into the whole array sending mechanism in Ada. Will write it up and post tomorrow, yes it is possible but you'll need to make some internal structure that Ada uses. Also
I doubt it is much better than sending the pointer with a separate length parameter.

☟︎ shinohai: sorry if
i offend ben_vulpes
i meant the "Duh" towards myself, because
i flagged help instead of of tcker

☟︎ phf: "wait 3 DAY" aight,
i got this.
phf:
i think there's still something missing
phf: mircea_popescu:
i think a line got lost at $where .= ...
phf:
i think there might still be a bunch of cool stuff like that hidden in your themes, that's not in wp-mp
☟︎ phf:
i suspect my rss is not delayed, because it went out barely 15 seconds after
i published
phf: sorry about this,
i haven't finished writing it, fat fingered publish button, and then couldn't figure out how to unpublish before it hit rss.
ben_vulpes: thanks for reminding me about that;
i'll answer in a bit along with your q's on the blog a little later, attention currently demanded elsewhere
mircea_popescu: (divorced from the ~pogos itself~ question, which
i gather dun really want)
mircea_popescu: Illuminati hood and became rich ,
i am marry by name 45 years old from palm coast florida usa,
I tried all
mircea_popescu: you know,
i have some barely literate opinions from other niggers here for you, if you must read ?
ben_vulpes: that's enough
i'm going to stop slamming my dick in the drawer now
mircea_popescu: ave1
i can't imagine what exactly you could use mbytes / second in an irc bot.
i don't think my irc interface even seens kb/s speeds.
mircea_popescu:
i beleive in using the mess maker to clean up the messes it made.
mircea_popescu: caaddr Valfor next
i see your name in any other context than "here is the useful
i did" comes the banning.
diana_coman: ave1 have you ever passed a char * from c to ada in such a way that ada actually sees the correct length for it? there is something
I don't quite understand there as To_C seems to use Target'Length so the length should be set
☟︎ diana_coman: ave1, aha, byte by byte was what
I ended up doing at testing stage just to see it really working; hopefully
I'll still get it working properly with To_C as such and then
I can still avoid the C.Strings, stick with the procs To_Ada and To_C; it's not going to be pretty but at least the mess is as small as
I can see a way to do it now
ave1: BTW for an Ada IRC bot experiment,
I'm working with buffers on both sides (ADA <--> C) and moving bytes one by one. This seems to deliver the cleanest code. (but will probably not ever be Mbytes per second)
ave1: mostly the other way around, but
I'll be happy to help out. (
I'm slowly reading through the gnat runtime library code,
I just realized
I should write more notes while reading through this...)
diana_coman: if you have experience with taming this particular kraken
I'd be very happy to hear of it
diana_coman: ave1, tbh
I've been trying to avoid .c.strings at least but atm it looks set to still make its way in because calling ada stuff from c and getting char * result is an even worse mess with interfaces.c only (
i.e. with char_array vs chars_ptr)
ave1: the fun of C strings,
I hope you can use the procedure versions of To_Ada and To_C.
ave1: diana_coman: will you be depending on interfaces.c or interfaces.c.strings packages (
I'v done some initial work on modified versions of these that do not need a second stack)
ave1: thanks!,
I updated the post.
ben_vulpes:
i look forward to the flensing in the morrow
mod6: One thing,
I don't think
I ever mentioned yet;
I intend to fill The Bitcoin Foundation's board seat on Pizarro's board. Unless anyone objects to this.
mircea_popescu: cool. and while
i think unixtime is fine in the actual ledger,
i'd prefer human date in the breaklines
trinque: ben_vulpes:
I apparently broke the wallet's !!v just now; note the lack of responses
state_bits: Anyway
I'll pop back if
I have anything worth saying
state_bits: Hi all -
I stopped by a month or so ago. Been reading logs but wanted to register a key

I have not seen joecool.
mod6: ben_vulpes: It's a deal then! Can pay sometime today yet. Invoice me if you like even.
I'll pay with my deedbot acct.
mod6: Ok, fair enough,
I appreciate your response danielpbarron.
I'll probably need more eventually anyway.
mod6: Wanna give dpb a chance here tho, before
I accept.
I feel like 24 hours should be fine since the time of my posting.
mod6: Thanks ben_vulpes!
I'll leave it open for danielpbarron here yet. See what he comes up with.
ben_vulpes: mod6:
i'll do the 5 for 0.7838890 btc; that's a 10% markup from pizarro's cost plus ~20usd for shipping
mircea_popescu: well... it'll pass with me for fairytale reasons (irl
i wouldn't have any reason to buy insurance on a fg, seeing how that'll be the day, and besides
i got alf to squeeze ; but let's play.)
mod6: lol, if
i wanted to get middleman'd,
i'd get 'em from dpb!
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu:
i'm going to roll the FGs into the rental cost of the machine; 20% markup for a year paid up front for the whole kit and caboodle if that passes with you
☟︎ ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu:
i'll take 'em in exchange for the note at 0.5. ty!
☟︎ spyked: oh,
I meant redundancy in "standing a logger bot", not necessarily in re-coding.
mircea_popescu:
i guess. but there's so much work not currently bering handled seems somewhat of a waste to re-do things already done.
spyked: mircea_popescu, do you mean the irc logger? well,
I figured moar redundancy can't do any harm; and it started as an occasion to study the various ways in which common lisp can handle the various pieces (database, irc,
http). what
I have so far is not very different from btcbase.org/patches/logbot-genesis , only
I made it a point to avoid quicklisp and use manual imports etc.
spyked: translations.
I've been piling 'em up and taking them in small bits, which makes this very much non-productive work on the short term.
I can prioritize if you deem any item to be particularly important (and
I think it'd be best to first publish some of these before embarking on further quests)

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-26#1786219 <-- hey, that sounds like a really neat project,
I wouldn't mind adding it to the list. on a related note, /me has been on a sort of semi-holiday for the last 2 months, which led to a lot of exploration on items of potential republican interest. e.g. the ada lisp scriptlang, an irc logger bot (which
I could spin into a rss bot), the text browser thing and some out-of-the-blue ro-en Trilema
☝︎ mircea_popescu: myeah.
i spent an unpleasant coupla hours earlier at this also
