mod6: and.. i don't wanna be
the only one who can write
tests for
this
thing :}
mod6: well, i agree. i honestly like perl better, but
that's maybe because I've been doing small
things in it for 15 years.
trinque: eh is python really better
than perl?
mod6: again hopefully someone in
the future can learn from what I'm doing here and
take
this over in python.
mod6: this one shows
that we can connect with -connect & -myip, sleep for a bit, check connection count, shutdown bitcoind,
then sleep a bit more (in case we restart bitcoind on
the next
test, we wanna allow some
time for
the DB
to sync etc.)
mod6: my other instance is connected
to
the same node, and still syncing, but much further down
the chain: height=215394
mod6: asciilifeform: yeah, confirm
that on ur one node i'm wedged at 365441
☟︎ trinque: mod6: what does
that "lasttry" indicate?
trinque: I'm reminded of comcast
telling me yesterday
that "that port 25,
that's not yours"
phf: must be <-->
this many hops away from fort meade
to ride
phf: asciilifeform: well,
that last burst is me netcat'ing you repeatedly
assbot: Logged on 20-07-2015 00:44:24; mircea_popescu: you seriously proposing
the internet just goes away ?
trinque: what will
they
think of next
assbot: Logged on 13-04-2014 22:27:18; asciilifeform:
the 'a) wanna buy strela? b) fuck off c) really, dontcha? b) ok sure c) off
to jail'
thing has been going so long
that it doesn't even make national news every
time now.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I'm not so sure. Perhaps Walmart was closed or had no scooty puffs for him
to ride?
trinque: oh, I just go for a walk for
that
BingoBoingo: It is, but one has
to keep
the hateorade full somehow.
hanbot: BingoBoingo isn't it...disadvantageous
to be
triggerable by something so...abundant? i bet people sensitive
to anorexics have a much easier
time
cazalla: BingoBoingo, why ya got all
these links
to such images?
trinque: that's just cause
the food never makes it
to
the
table
trinque: and since "this *doesn't* happen
to america" and it can never be forgotten, we will pick at
the wound until it kills us
trinque: the
thing's indelliby
there, forever
trinque: there was no chance
the whole
thing wouldn't be caught by every camera in miles
trinque: all
that
to say we were hit right in
the heel
trinque: I expect a general concept of "being
terrorised"
to develop which is some descendent of being "triggered" and so on
trinque: you have a situation where everything generates more fear, and so long as people believe
the govts role is
to remove anything feared, it'll proceed further in
the same direction
trinque: and
the precariousness of baseless narcissism, being
that it could be knocked over by reality at any moment
mod6: <+mircea_popescu>
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-07-2015#1208811 << i am looking forward
to
the fallout from
this :D << heheh. well, with any luck it might help us
this
time around. my hope is
that some python hero will pick up
the
torch and
take
this
thing forward next
time around.
☝︎ trinque: the attack created
the atmosphere of "something must be done"
trinque: the
things people joke about show
that
trinque: everyone here knows on some level
they could kick
the door in at any moment
trinque: hanbot: some interaction between
the subconscious effect of even having a vast american govt at all...
hanbot: trinque what's
that, ostrichprocess?
hanbot: and wd on
that front BingoBoingo!
trinque: I begin
to see how
there's a runaway social process here.
BingoBoingo: The ashley madison
thing is big, you wrote a better story. My quick piece was just
to get something in as soon as possible considering our... uptime issues.
trinque: you know
that Bin Laden guy really hit it outta
the park.
BingoBoingo: hanbot: I gave it
the redundancy edit by linking
the earlier piece
hanbot: ah BingoBoingo, didn't catch your earlier piece.
think mine needs a redundancy edit?
trinque: isn't
this sort of like saying common lisp is impossible, after all,
the machine only implements syslisp?
trinque: actually
that one uses asm
trinque: perhaps not as efficiently as someone
thinking about hardware wants
Adlai: doesn't mean
that reality didn't exist in
the
terim
Adlai: gradually modern "languages" (glorified syntax processors) are waking up
to
the reality recognized decades ago
Adlai: bedrock my ass,
the bedrock is assembly language on a 2(or more)-core system... what shapes possibilities is
the crappy foundation sunk into
the quicksand sludge on
top of
the rock
decimation: in other words,
the bedrock is shaping 'what is possible'
☟︎ decimation: ... any other, one must be
the caller and
the other must be
the callee. So if you want
to write portable code,
this
technique is at least as impractical as
the Unix pipe solution. "
decimation: ... concept completely. Stop
thinking of one process as
the caller and
the other as
the callee, and start
thinking of
them as cooperating equals. ...
This is very nice in
theory, but in practice you can only do it in assembly language, because no commonly used high level language supports
the coroutine call primitive. Languages like C depend utterly on
their stack-based structure, so whenever control passes from any function
to ...
decimation: also some amusing reading:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/coroutines.html " One of
the particular problems
that often comes up is
this: if you have a piece of code producing data, and another piece of code consuming it, which should be
the caller and which should be
the callee? ... In
The Art of Computer Programming, Donald Knuth presents a solution
to
this sort of problem. His answer is
to
throw away
the stack ...
decimation: asciilifeform: did you already have
those datasheets I linked last night?
ascii_field: ^^^ anyone who has
time
to carry on in
this pattern, is encouraged.
ascii_field: ;;later
tell mircea_popescu can haz a pcap dump of
the ddos packets plz ?
BingoBoingo: ;;later
tell mircea_popescu Can we get
that window
to post and archive soon?
ascii_field: qntra points
to a very quick-loading 404 now
