assbot: Logged on 13-08-2015 19:20:56; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2015#1237000 << how's this different from being affraid of being gay ?

ben_vulpes: for teh lulz
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> senator hurrdurr (who really seems an exact mirror image of ron paul in left colorings) is certainly out of the question, but omfg don't tell me trump takes over and does a postmodern rendition of reagan << it is going to be glorious

trinque: why not float the dumb emojis over the input
ben_vulpes: "the correct answer is to get your project manager to change the requirements"
trinque: there's also a secret property-knocking handshake you can do to turn any div into a game of pacman
ben_vulpes: trinque: didja get to the part where he talks about implementing a single-line rich-text-editor ?
ben_vulpes: i still wish that i didn't
ben_vulpes: until today
ben_vulpes: i didn't know about editable divs today
mircea_popescu: i think so too
trinque: mircea_popescu: yes, felt that story presents a nice bottom-bound on the misery-ometer

ben_vulpes: coracle at 290915 tho
trinque: ben_vulpes: read that story about the old woman and miserable horse; it'll make ya feel better

ben_vulpes: sorry pete_dusheshenski, no tech support available this week
BingoBoingo: ^ tldr; tan your sack
trinque: I feel I've done a great service aiming her at the parentheses early
assbot: Logged on 14-08-2015 02:13:00; trinque: watch her end up lapping me
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-08-2015#1237613 << is this how you say oral sex ? ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 13-08-2015 20:43:18; mats: wish i had that skill. would be useful for conversions between base16, base10, base8, base2 conversions when doing low level computering ☟︎
BingoBoingo: I don't even think the asciilifeform phillipino theory can explain this one. USG must be farming out spam to Montessori schools nao. ☟︎
assbot: The blocksize debate is due to limited upload bandwidth. A hardfork could fix this: by allowing 10 minutes for *all* nodes to upload their blocks into a "blockpool" (so nodes with slow internet have a chance too), and then *randomly* select one block as the "winner" to append to the blockchain. : Bi ... ( http://bit.ly/1Mrg9IM )
BingoBoingo: Oh the reddardation https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3gxa2f/the_blocksize_debate_is_due_to_limited_upload/
trinque: a deeply moving story. thanks for translating.
gribble: Aristophanes, Frogs, line 225: <http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Aristoph.%20Frogs%20230>; Word of the day – Brekekekex (Βρεκεκέξ) | Omniglot blog: <http://www.omniglot.com/blog/?p=280>; koax koax brekekekex (finaly) - YouTube: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMhcdbST_YI>
mircea_popescu: well... the thing ius, crickets and frogs and whatnot, which do EXACTLY this, do it to reproduce, and succeed in reproducing.
asciilifeform: i am reading this to the tune of billions of living things each saying 'i matter i matter chirp i matter'
trinque: reduces to "I matter" and I suppose any living thing making a sound is also saying that
mircea_popescu: "Remember, bitcoin works through consensus by code. Not consensus by CODERS."
asciilifeform: '...redefining "bitcoin user" so that less than 1% of bitcoin holders are anointed as 'Real Users'. Enough already. It smells like tyranny, it looks like tyranny - it IS tyranny. And Bitcoin, more than any other community, should overthrow these flawed attempts at governance. Where a minority holds the rest hostage.'
asciilifeform: like those comment sp4mz0rz on mircea_popescu's site
asciilifeform: i can't wait for one of these tards to accidentally publish his madlibs template
asciilifeform: 'I admit there is value in running a node/mining, but certainly a community that claims to favor freedom should have the ability (and courage) to welcome a diverse range of users, even if they don't meet some arbitrary standard set by an elitist insider.'
trinque: she's rather sharp, taking to it well
trinque: I've walked her through setting up both emacs and slime
trinque: asciilifeform: told her as much, lol! right question! sadly, only horribly approximate answers
asciilifeform: yes, ancestors did not have these. they also lacked water closet.
asciilifeform: ^ or to program in cl without a button that evaluates the current set of parens your cursor is in
asciilifeform: (asking folks to, e.g., match parens or indent by hand is ~retarded~)
asciilifeform: i suspect that 99% of folks who think they 'hate lisp!111!!111' were created by the harmful delusion that any meaningful work can be done without emacs+slime or the exact equivalent
assbot: Logged on 14-08-2015 02:12:38; trinque: I am actually going to throw her at common lisp *first* and see what happens
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-08-2015#1237612 << if you think therealbitcoin without rotor is rough, you haven't tried common lisp without emacs+slime... ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 14-08-2015 02:11:19; trinque: her exact request was for a "real computer, and to learn how to program"
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-08-2015#1237609 << let me know if you discover either of these. i've always wanted. ☝︎
mod6: if start to see repeating errors in debug.log let us know.
mod6: ok, good deal. just let it do its thing.
mod6: do you have the maxint_locks_corrected patch applied?
gernika: Does it take a while to get past 367850? Or might I still be stuck...
mod6: thx trinque ;]
mod6: Oh, i didn't notice you could actually edit the examples. neat.
trinque: and you have to click outside the editor box, which is lame
mod6: And it looks like you can take notes or something
assbot: iSICP 1.1 - The Elements of Programming ... ( http://bit.ly/1fb1mTL )
mod6: Well, unless you count submitting the answers to the exercises.
mats: there doesn't appear to be anything actually interactive there
trinque: oh hey, this is cool https://xuanji.appspot.com/isicp/
trinque: actually I misspoke, put The Little Schemer in her hands first
trinque: I am actually going to throw her at common lisp *first* and see what happens ☟︎
trinque: I told her that was exactly the right ordering of the two
trinque: her exact request was for a "real computer, and to learn how to program" ☟︎
mod6: cool. glad she tested it for us.
trinque: and she says thanks for the guide
trinque: n6: wherever you are, take note... following orders gets ya places
trinque: btw, my ex-gf had no trouble with the gentoo guide aside from asking me about the definitions of a few terms
asciilifeform: (naturally it is a bit of a constricted subset of the language)
asciilifeform: (thingie which lets you build a c proggy for, i shit thee not, ~stackless+heapless~ machine. as in 0 bytes of addressable ram)
assbot: About ROMCC and V3 - The H Open: News and Features ... ( http://bit.ly/1J7qPK3 )
asciilifeform: i'm also fond of cramming things in rom
asciilifeform: but yes, when this is physically possible, it is done. in any safety-critical system
mircea_popescu: "this program takes as much memory torun at all as it totally employs". "this program takes as much time to run every time as it takes the longest time" etc.
asciilifeform: this saves you from leakage but not from corruption (you just trade heap overflow for stack if you fuckup!)
mircea_popescu: stop asking them to do any sort of "optimization"./
mircea_popescu: specifically - the cheapest and most effective approach to security still is and remains "giving people an easier task". chief on the list of ways to achieve this,
mircea_popescu: that said, static allocation goes a long way. this connects to the "fixed time" discussion re rsa yest.
asciilifeform: the attempts of folks who tried to 'kill mem corruption in c' are a lulzmine of their own.
asciilifeform: and not then, either.
assbot: Logged on 14-08-2015 00:46:39; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-08-2015#1237238 << it is particularly NOT possible to kill memory corruption in C.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=14-08-2015#1237496 << not without turning your 'c' into a 'half-finished bug-ridden reimplementation of ada' ☝︎
trinque: right, try getting someone to pay for all the bugs you didn't put in their software
asciilifeform: 'you walked, anybody can walk' 'fine. go and walk back. through the same minefield'
asciilifeform: i try to explain this point to folks and nearly always fail
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ... upside of a sane approach is never "where it gets you", but always "where it didn't take you" << aha. precisely this.
asciilifeform: (rides on ghostscript. any box you run it on, you may as well use a traditional displayer)
asciilifeform: 'pdf2txt.py' on this box
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what was the pdf to text tool ?
asciilifeform more than content to wait to learn how to fly a carpet until he actually gets the carpet.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'd be delighted to learn how 2 is solved. but the full story can wait for 3 if you like
mircea_popescu: 1 is readily surmountable by abstraction. i know how to do this. (you may think you are the first to meet the problem - you are not. scripts are sold in show biz all the time etc). 2. is readily solved, whether you like to or not, and 3 yes.
asciilifeform: e to wait for my physical jailbreak from usaschwitz..
