mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they're rank nonsense, "how to take a 95% productivity hit by everything taking longer and using a blocking channel"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: then doods walk in here with "oh, rms gotta be respekted for his contribution"
mircea_popescu: that "warning" utterly offends me, if it wasn't obvious.
mircea_popescu: myeah. but taki8ng out libc ALTOGETHER seems very appealing right now
mircea_popescu: this is pretty terrible altogether. ave1 you got a moment ? how close is alf's "quite close" ?
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno that it's entirely wrong ; "don't link libc if you're making a library" is right!
mircea_popescu: anyway, the pile of ad-hoc name systems in legacy unix is starting to get on my heads. PATH, really ? amnd then "use mkdtemp" and fucking hell already
mircea_popescu: but anyway, yes, "forbid linking libc ~in libraries~".
mircea_popescu: and also, this isn't so much hanbot's gnat, but really the copy diana_coman 's maintaining that's for all intents and purposes the candidate for standardization.
mircea_popescu: i am thinking this is actually something that needs changing in vdiff and being made a general rule.
mircea_popescu: anyway, whole issue seems to be that mktemp could "guess" a file that's about to be created by root and wipe it.
mircea_popescu: let's just make idle pointless strongly worded warnings to maintain the general state of pantsuit mindset!@!1
mircea_popescu: fucking idiots put it in the linker, but NEVER INCLUDED ANY DISCUSSION of why the fuck.
mircea_popescu: like two-three meters out on the balcony, you know... at first i thought it's swooping in for my dick.
mircea_popescu: bird was there for a good half hour, trying to figure out how to best extract the quarry, it was something else.
mircea_popescu: in other unrelated not-news, "gun crazy" is a terrible "film". just thought nobody'd like to know.
mircea_popescu: mmm pretty sure diana_coman has a holy gnat incarnation somewhere, part of the eucrypt writeup.
mircea_popescu: (bash) error 127 just means the command's not found in your path.
mircea_popescu: hanbot anyway, are you using jam/ftjam or what's the connection ? leftover build process from eulora basically ?
mircea_popescu: phf does your new vdiff (that's supposed to introduce keccak into the build flow) actually REQUIRE the presser ALREADY HAVE keccak ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: in other lulz, did you know pigs actually have lower fat ratios than human females ? 70% or so muscle dem ripped oinkers.
mircea_popescu: i suspect that however you turn it, something LIKE rss we will have to have, and that like is so close as to not make the killing worth the bullets.
mircea_popescu: layer 2, the general point : rss is very visible an irc-driven reaction to web idiocy. it's the web-less-est thing on the web, and for the very plain and evident consideration tha the web is wrong, EXACTLY in the way discussed here re alphabet etc, "do not ye pretend to tell the user how to display data".
mircea_popescu: trinque there's two layers here. layer 1 : there's a lot of flexibility in letting it be rss ; i can have a rss reader read it for me rather than put all failure points in freenode-dns.
mircea_popescu: then b) becomes just having the bot subscribe to that feed.
mircea_popescu: depends how the campaign goes. but if people turn out to actually give a shit about "stood up in arms to federal govt and won", heck, he's got it.
mircea_popescu: it'ds also strictly speaking not quite incoinceivable he actually wins. nevada is small.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes not such a good idea to introduce more moving parts. but simply "n = x for a + y for b + z for c"
mircea_popescu: you know you should probably consolidate invoices, it'\s a pain in the ass to pay the same person 3 or n times in the same day/week
mircea_popescu: i taught her a lesson in handicapping of magnificent splendour rarely seen : halfway through last quarter, the score being 80 (to 40 something) i asked her whether they clear 94. no way. she bet me, and well...
mircea_popescu: in other proceedings, i met hanbot for drinks at the blue marlin (local brothel), where we watched teen hussies duke it out. literally : uconn beat the shit out of south carolina (all black girls, for maximum lulz. a tall lanky one even cried!).
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform let me know when you've bought ; gotta stamp diana_coman 's vacation form.
mircea_popescu: data is backup-ed. as to when back online... well... talk to these people.
mircea_popescu: lobbes ima put it in the mar report ; but the short story is, server i supposedly bought in feb still not here by late march, minigame dun have a server now.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo the chinese are the ultimate body shop ppls.
