mircea_popescu: the literal kind, "how shall
i deliver this pics of me doing things".
BingoBoingo:
I haven't talked with them directly yet.
I'm writing the email now asking for a list, including prices for quantities greater than one.

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774395 << what
i don't understand is how
i can have the same conversation ~with ascii~ over and over again and still he'd be repeating the same original stuff.
i don't think it's a question of my blog here, unless you're saying that me saying things in log have no merit because
i don't have a blog post to back it up with. this is a novel take by the way, because log used to be canon
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1774399 << entirely separate concerns. as to 1, yes, we all have repeated conversations with alf in this vein,
i dunno what exactly to do about it ; 2. the quality of your killshot was poor, and it is my theory that this is because the sort of topic would greatly benefit from the cohesive power of an article ; nothing to do with log not being canon, but a matter of collected convenience.
☝︎ shinohai: This is new development, was still free in December because
I was walking someone through it, none of that junk.
shinohai:
I'll be damned if
I can find anywhere anymoe that *isn't* paywalled :/
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 16:47 ave1: yes,
I would not support older or gcc gnats, a user can mutilate on his own
BingoBoingo: It is the two,
I can put them together into one.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo aite how many of these picemeal snippets are there ? 3 ?
i got two so far, missing any ?
ben_vulpes:
i woulda expected you to be able to sniff order-of-magnitude difference in plagiaristic works; swoopy css ain't cheap
trinque: phf:
I dunno it's that;
I could pick out plenty of examples of "trinque said!!" from the log.
I think it's just a huge amount of information by now.

☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: it's a subtle point this,
i dun have useful expression yet. in time.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:30 caaddr: compared to compilation as a *software transformation device*, which
I consider a different case: that is for automating levers, not running your program off of a cliff faster than before
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-22#1773999 << it's not clear that this separate-and-oh-so-different-this-time attempt to implement dwim has any more merit than any of the previous ones. for as long as
i can't say "paperclip, write the novel
i feel inside of me", you can't say "software transformation compiler".
☝︎ mircea_popescu: (which -- how come nobody goes "hey, rms wasted through failing to save so and so engineer years in that whole fiasco". there's this very iritatingly wikipedian attitude of universalist nonsense, "we decided on x all avoidable sacrifice is going to be piously frauded into necessary now". and
i dun like it.)
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:23 caaddr: GNATMAKE 4.9.2 is the answer to the now redundant question.
I'll use adacore instead.
I had avoided this because it contains precompiled binaries, with no independent reproducible build certification
caaddr:
I'd tell somebody that too if
I wanted to eat them
mircea_popescu:
i believe it is very important to inform the kids what the adults are up to, you know ?
mircea_popescu: caaddr dun worry about it,
i just ask cuz im curious not cuz
i'm setting up the table to eat you.
caaddr: in any case,
I hope to contribute what little
I can. thinking here seems to align with mine
caaddr: various computing sector tasks. like all modern men,
I can skin a rabbit, smelt my own copper, build my own hut. computational equivalents, of course. strangely these turn out to be valuable traits, though easily gotten
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform to me either.
i'm mostly putting the matter into over-enunciated discussion to get the thinkjuices flowing on the topic, as it's gonna be the main bitch for years to come.
mircea_popescu: people put their email in there all the time ; which got zimmerman banned in my book, because
i wrote to the email and he responded that he "long ago lost the key".
a111: Logged on 2018-01-21 22:34 phf: mircea_popescu: it's not clear to me what "properly handle" is, given the many conversations on the subj. there's no reason why it couldn't if there was some direction as far as proper.
i'm personally leaning towards the idea that binary blobs shouldn't be in vpatch (as per latest thread on subj), but it's a non-pragmatic take
caaddr: and my vpatch was trivial work,
I just wanted to report it here to avoid other ffa pioneers having to duplicate trivialities
trinque: caaddr: to date the only use
I've seen is people put an expiration date on a key, then whine to me about swapping it out
caaddr:
I was able to migrate to Adacore 2016 okay, for what it's worth
caaddr:
I don't know if anybody is actually using PGP, now you mention it. outside of the serene republic
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:19 asciilifeform: and also
i think at this point
i will declare gpl-gnat to be a work of wreckers. it has zero upsides over adacore's, and a million breakages , large and small.
mircea_popescu: this may seem weird considering we've had numbers for a long time. but
i am pretty certain that's what the problem is.
caaddr: as far as
I can tell, you can either rewrite their shitware from scratch and surgically remove the primes yourself, or you can import it into the less damaged gpg1 to achieve much the same in a less irritating way
mircea_popescu:
i don't expect anyone gives a shiot abput the gimmick.
mircea_popescu: the correlate of postmodern confusion is that
i'd so much rather gouge out an eye than watch another benjamin-shithead movie.
mircea_popescu: the cruise... "it's nice,
i guess", but it doesn't fucking hurt and the stump doesn't bleed afterwards, why even bother.

I've been working on Chapter 1 of the ffalib guide
BingoBoingo: And passed the 24 hour mark so at tonight's meeting
I can report the last 24 went bien
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 13:23 diana_coman:
I really can't begin to understand what exactly is that; some gems in there too with organisation making silk-purse out of a sow's ear and "every participant has the option to be that player" and ...
trinque:
I will be willing to import a key with the same parameters, but marked as E
trinque:
I am not dancing around gpg's autism
a111: Logged on 2018-01-19 01:57 mircea_popescu very much will refuse to consider random fucktards who spent 2012 going "oh, who pays for mpex seats" in the hope that "hey,
i'll weasel my way back in through peripheral commentary anyway"
ave1: yes,
I would not support older or gcc gnats, a user can mutilate on his own
☟︎ trinque: ftr
I will never "fix that". noob either says exactly what he did and helps me reproduce it, or gets ignored.
I'm not comcast customer support.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-22 14:53 caaddr: thanks. hope trinque can fix that.
I did try "!!up" again myself
mod6: yeah,
i know. :] just want to test it first.
mod6: asciilifeform: noted.
i'll update it once
i get a chance to test whatever this is ^

mod6: it was a royal pita to get it to work... hopefully what
I've posted here will work for you, others.
mod6: hanbot: here's what
I have currently running on an Ubuntu 14.04 box.
I believe this to be all that is required, you can change the values as required, but
I think one catch that
I found is that root's ulimit needed to be set just a bit higher than the non-root user.
caaddr: thanks mod6.
I'm installing Adacore now
caaddr: so you're saying it's even worse than
I thought? ;)
caaddr: sure, but
I'm just lamenting the negative differential of the progress curve. what are the big discoveries since 1990?
phf: all these things are reddit available "oh
i saw link and played with it". try ~actually~ ~rebuilding~ a genera system from source code
caaddr:
I thought
I torrented a full system once upon a time
caaddr: fun story:
I tried to use vdiff with the busybox version of awk. this did not end with smiles and sunshine and laughter
caaddr: thanks. hope trinque can fix that.
I did try "!!up" again myself
☟︎ caaddr: "After a period of time, when no investors were found, the material assets of Gigamos, including the K-machine board sets, specifications, schematics, and printed circuit artwork were sold for salvage to Eli Hefron and Sons in Cambridge, MA.
I purchased these materials from Eli Hefron and Sons and they are currently in my possession."
caaddr: it's this that
I was thinking of:
phf: scheme-79 is not "whole thing published", which is something that
i said in the logs multiple times also. there's AI memoes of variying detali, but the actual toolset, something called daedalus, and the corresponding daedalus files that actually describe the chip, are nowhere to be found. also dies will not be particularly interesting because the whole point of daedalus was semi assisted layout
caaddr:
I enjoyed the long series of posts where a gentleman reverse engineered the 6502 die photograph, drawing the schematic from the photo
caaddr:
I think
I remember from the paper that only two of the actual pressed irons even worked.
I wonder what happened to them?
caaddr: so
I'll hold out for trinque. thank you
