☟︎ mircea_popescu: i mean suppose what'll now forever be known as the
phf problem : you find yourself stranded in tijuana with a drunk slut in bed. you want to buy breakfast. wut do ?

phf: first time you see a physics ph.d. with a patent you're kind of impressed, but when you have ten of them in a row..

phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-07#1612232 << umd is a giant h1-b clearing house, when you take away that, there's nothing left. at a recent career fair i saw huge lines of azns and indians at google and facebook booths ("our wait time finally dropped below an hour so i could get away and grab lunch")

phf: i don't grok job offers that specify language, but not task. "my employer is looking for a couple of pistoleros"
mircea_popescu: and check out
phf becoming a study in republican performance. "participation forces you to think about things completely, which results in either a decision you're not ready yet or else a sane implementation, both of which are perfect responses in and of themselves."

phf: so i was inspired by tmsr in 2014 to send out my gpg pubkey to a bunch of services that i use. most places simply ignored it, but today it paid off with the epic uptime machine. all i had to do was to point at an old email, pubkey in /root/ and send a signed request for a ssh pubkey replacement to recover a machine in barely amount of time it took to send three emails
ben_vulpes:
phf, asciilifeform: pretty standard recruiting tactic, appeal to identity. "i am a python/rails dev".

phf: on the other hand, things that suck. mbp trackpads don't work for shit anywhere outside of san francisco ACed offices

phf they're pretty shitty. tmsr pgp should prolly use a better scheme

phf: it's a combination of passphrase mangling (by default sha-1) to derive the key, and symmetric algorithm (be default aes-128) to encrypt the privkey. i don't think we had any discussion about this..

phf also wasn't so visible in moscow. what was it, 15% ?

phf: simple, cat /dev/mem > /dev/printer, and then make slave girls go over the result with pen until "get me all peers"
ben_vulpes:
phf: appcode is a mega improvement over xcode in many ways except for how i think i'm going to have to restart my ios dev box to get ac to recognize the device
BingoBoingo:
phf: Or a chance for pete to code and make a patch from 0.7-ish
a111: Logged on 2017-01-30 16:55 mircea_popescu: speaking of which
phf you still working on that ?
a111: Logged on 2016-12-05 13:54 walter__:
phf, what's special about 2005 ThinkPads?
mircea_popescu: so make a logger, look at Framedragger
phf ben_vulpes 's for inspiration.

Framedragger: bouncer is actually quite nice, as
phf said; that's what he had before, he wanted db for xrefs etc

phf was last seen in #trilema 1 day, 22 hours, 3 minutes, and 31 seconds ago: <
phf> so if you have a system that you implemented fast, but it's slow, but you know how to now slowly make it fast, you have a strategy. if you're chasing corner cases, running a profiler and get mostly flat distribution, writing in special cases, etc. you don't have one

Framedragger:
phf: if at it, may i have a copy of your logs too, please? :)

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-26#1607087 << this is actually not half-bad an idea, and it goes nicely in the direction of
phf 's literate code, which i still think should be a distant, but present goal.

phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-24#1606341 << optimization strategy is when you have a slow algorithm somewhere in your architecture (you put it there because it was a reasonable tradeoff at the point), but you can replace it with a faster algorithm without leaving too much damage on the architecture (alf calls it "scaring")
mircea_popescu:
phf nah, the idea is you get exactly like current, "security door" except the half inch steel sheet is on the inside, then 3 claymores stacked, then a thin al profile on the outside facing. have a shock detector modeled on 90% of the kinetic delivery of the standard issue us invasion corps battering ram.
ben_vulpes: even has search, although a very naive postgres full-text, not the "omfg exactly like grep" asciilifeform made
phf build
mircea_popescu: ican't recall if ben_vulpes or
phf were maintaining it. who was it ?

phf: (fwiw last time i checked in with clasp, it was also dog slow, probably a combination of insane technology tower and lack of optimization strategy, that all goes back to original point "writing lisp is hard")

phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-23#1606170 << no, and i think it's a combination of "scaring" and complexity. takes a lot of effort to build one from scratch. clim's beach actually tried building one, SICL
https://github.com/robert-strandh/SICL which is closest to "compartmenalized", but i'm not sure where it is. probably heavy WIP stage. (and reading the ilc slides it seems like it's beach/mcclim style overengineered)
a111: Logged on 2017-01-23 21:47 asciilifeform: !~later tell
phf do you know of any public cl implementation where all os-specific liquishit is reasonably compartmentalized ? (it isn't in sbcl, cmucl, or ccl, and did i miss anything..??)
ben_vulpes:
phf: tpp would have saved clitorises and improved livelihoods of innumerable foreign brown people
deedbot: danielpbarron updated rating of
phf from -1 to 1 << Pays attention
phf: apropos,
http://btcbase.org/log/?nick=phf will highlight all the messages from and to nick (it's half baked, like it doesn't get preserved when you switch pages, but i have the logs bookmarked that way, so that i can see if i got mentioned at a glance)
ben_vulpes: anways i broke some links, but not many. i'll come back around later this weekend and drop references for
phf's cross-referencer to pick up.
scriba: Logged on 2017-01-20: [19:22:03] <Framedragger> yeah :D yah my plan was to use postgres full text search (even though it may be overkill as
phf once said), but it's just not high priority in my list. but i'd like to do it
Framedragger: the xref thing as
phf calls them. when one log line references another, and btcbase adds hyperlinks to jump between the references

mircea_popescu:
phf can implement it in a111 when he comes back also and problem solved.

phf: which brings me to my question, what's a good book on inorganic chemistry (or general chemistry)
mircea_popescu:
phf the problem with the bolt-ons being that why are you bolting on, use the language of the boltons instead.
mod6:
phf: yeah, might be a worthwhile project.
mod6: <+
phf> no in scheme land you have mit scheme and scheme48 << with these, which one is more preferred? or why choose one over the other?
mircea_popescu:
phf enjoy it while it lasts bub, i had the same thing in my 20s/early 30s
mircea_popescu:
phf that shitty "lisphacker.com" thing that spits the most obnoxious errors, really bitch, "no such key" ?
mircea_popescu: honeslty, should probably go with whatever either
phf used to run btcbase or ben_vulpes used to run candi.
