mircea_popescu: in fact,
a per-day filtered-histogram could conceivably be very fucking useful hunting down large topics.
phf: well, right, it highlights
a specific post, but also filters, so ...#;foo works as
a whole day filter
phf: heh, we now also have
a heathen logger.
whaack: I will work on creating an index of all of these non standard outputs of the form (txn-hash:output-index --> satoshis) sum up all the satoshis sent into the abyss from all past blocks, and then subtract spent coins in future blocks to get
a value of how many coins are in the abyss at block n
phf: asciilifeform: how where do you source your cat5e? i've been using
a leftover roll from my contracting days, but it finally ran out. went on amazon, not only are prices somewhat suspect (300m for $40?), but comments say that they cable doesn't actually conform to spec (wrong insulation, wrong conductor, etc.)
phf: i mean,
a _misplaced_ parenthesis will result in
a valid parse, but the error is going to be something along the lines of "error while parsing arguments to special form" or "argument x is not
a number" or "function call with n arguments, but wants exactly m"
phf: misplaced parenthesis is tricky to debug from the error messages, in fact i usually can't. i can usually intuit that the error is probably
a result of misplaced parent, but then i still have to go an track it down
a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 21:17 phf: i've seen properly indented code before, that never the less lost or misplaced parenthesis here or there. naggum actually had
a rant somewhere how most experienced lispers actually discover nesting issues by doing reindent. but if you're
a newb, you're going to lose
a parent, but keep the code shape the same
phf: trilema-church i think has to be
a danielpbarron project
BingoBoingo: <shinohai> nah there is this crazy family that has
a micronation in the middle of the ocean. << That's awfully close to airstrip one

a proper editor
diana_coman: oh, the Floating Bear sort of thing, lol; close to "atop
a server"
shinohai: they have
a rack of servers and i can buy one lol
shinohai: nah there is this crazy family that has
a micronation in the middle of the ocean.
diana_coman had this flash image of shinohai paddling in the North Sea atop
a server
shinohai: I'm thinking about buying
a server in the North Sea
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> hey BingoBoingo wtf is
a 'testosterona' ? boiled goat balls, straight from 1950s quackeries ? << direct translation of testosterone. Probably what's being marketed is
a depot formulation of testosterone attached to
a long chain esther
mircea_popescu: cranberry sauce recipe goes "mix one cup of liquid with cup and
a half of sugar" and so following.
mircea_popescu: she's tallied up all the sugar we saved, comes to almost
a quarter ton!
a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 18:46 mircea_popescu: tbh an ~hour later my patience with teh #lisp is waning fast. yes it's not cohesive
a la catv-org or whatever other dorkitudes we examined prior, which means there's no specific failure mode. but this doesn't mean much, it vaguely flails like an ooze and well...

☟︎ mircea_popescu: and no further than ONE DAY BACK in this log which seemed very respectable snr-wise on the basis of my hsaving read today, there's
a PILE of "how to lisp on windows" and "how to utf-8 unicode etc".
a111: Logged on 2017-06-06 20:38 asciilifeform: diana_coman: the example was written on
a box with adacore's gnat; the stock gnu one is stricter, doesn't permit Foo'Image -- instead you gotta FooTypeName'Image(Foo)
a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 17:55 whaack: asciilifeform: gnat1: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-fdump-scos’ when I try gprbuild. gnat version 4.6 gcc version 4.8.4. I removed the command line option from the gpr file since it seemed to be just used for coverage tools. Then got error prefix of "Image" attribute must be
a type in 3 places in blocks.adb
phf: that's actually
a cute idea, have
a bot do the `read' on whatever's pasted, but obviously only works here, not on #lisp (since all kinds of attack vectors)
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes hey, how hard would it be to add
a flag (=lisp) to bpaste, make it highlight and shit as per #lisp folk spec ? ("<|3b|> mircea_popescu: links to spec in particular, + interactive paren highlighting")
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so it appears that whitequark item is actually
a many-channel log.

☟︎☟︎ phf: no, but i'll give it
a try, i think it's my turn to attempt to invite
a random stranger to trilema and see him run away in horror
mircea_popescu: phf dja have
a conduit to invite him here ? i think smg wants to hire him.
mircea_popescu: * Loaded log from Thu Jan 19 19:08:32 2017 << i guess once
a year .
phf: ben_vulpes: sharplispers i believe is the #lisp crowd who maintain "abandoned" packages (mostly for the purposes of xach having somewhere to git clone things from for his quicklisp). i know xach, luis oliveira, and nikodemus siivola, the last one being
a proper hacker
ben_vulpes: perhaps shoulda said "needs
a stan/mpi style gutting"
ben_vulpes: also ironclad rsa padding is notquiteright, trinque i believe knows
a bit more
phf: maybe, but only as "presented as found". froydnj said in
a few places, that he doesn't think ironclad is there yet as far as being used for production crypto. and we had
a thread (with ben_vulpes) where we discovered that sha512 (!!!) had
a bug
phf: asciilifeform: i recall their being tight hashing code, but every time i do the same thing and discover that it was sb-md5 (and there's
a corresponding cmucl prior art), so no proper shasum
ben_vulpes: i figure you can stitch it into
a fare-friendly (asdf) form, if you have trouble or its missing bits let me know, 'tis
a very hasty rip job
ben_vulpes: it is some very embarassingly java-flavored CLOS, read it with
a skeptical eye
mircea_popescu: let's put in for teh logs : woe on the poor man, his oxen won't pull properly, his sandwich falls into shit and even when he fucks he runs into
a rusty nail.
mircea_popescu: most parasitosis works that way, actually. there is such
a thing as
a rich guy's tuberculosis immunity. or, for that matter, aids.
a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 16:20 phf: re upstack, there's been
a resurgence of sorts of gopher protocol, various hipsters spinning up personal websites, etc. whether the resurgence was shortlived or i'm just late to the game, but there's already
a community of wreckers (one of them groups is coming from this federated twitter platform, mastodon) discussing all the various ways that they want to "improve" gopher, tls, utf-8, markdown renderer, "minimal subset of html", etc. but at the same
whaack: asciilifeform: okay I will give it
a shot
whaack: asciilifeform: okay I plan to use ironclad to do the actual hashing in the cl implementation unless there is
a better recommendation
mircea_popescu: "mp is possibly not
a millionaire seeing how he has girls combing the streets of poor countries looking for salvageable parts in the debris, as opposed to shooting photographs with the photographer's girlfriend like TRUE millionaires do"
phf: i keep expecting another trilema executing
a coordinated strategy, but once you spend
a few days living amongst them, you realize that there's nothing there, so yes.
mircea_popescu: is no longer unrelated at all. IT IS JUST
A RESTATEMENT OF THE SAME THING!

☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎ whaack: well the txn hash is provided as the inputs in the future blocks but each new txn in
a block does not provide
a copy of its hash as well afaik
whaack: Ultimately what I want to build is
a tool to determine how much
a miner can obtain by "defecting" from segwit from the current mempool
mircea_popescu: exactly like reddit,
a website someone made in the hopes of becoming
a millionaire.
mircea_popescu: the complaint re mp's perceived lifestyle neartly folds into the general problem : "i think mp might be
a millionaire as usg defined that term for me, but it seems in
a sense fake, because he doesn't display the markers usg trained me to recognize. i wonder, if usg controls my perception of my own wants in the sense of defining how their perceptible form looks, why i don't get to be
a millionaire ?"
a111: Logged on 2017-11-23 15:26 mircea_popescu: yet... they do not know how to do it. AVERAGE salaries in the collegiate fields are about 100k/year, that means
a 1mn income EACH DECADE, for AVERAGE performance
mircea_popescu: complete and utter failure of the "social contract", at that. it's like
a sailing school that fails to produce sailors, this ourdemocracy that fails to produce millionaires.

☟︎ BingoBoingo: "To put specific numbers on this, the report notes that studies consistently find that more than 90% of prison rapes are inter-racial and racially motivated. Blacks are found to be some 80% of the perpetrators, and whites are the vast majority of victims. Again, this is easily accessible in
a peer-reviewed report published at
a mainstream outlet. (So how are desegregated prisons working out for us now, huh?)"
mircea_popescu: and i'll insist and underline that no, can not be the case these are people. if i can emulate 10k of them on
a stock amd, they're not people, they're 1/10k of
a stock amd.
mircea_popescu: " At Buyerbrain, Ioana performs as
a researcher and as
a multidisciplinary perspective analyst, disseminating and promoting the neuroscience culture while also applying those principles to marketing and communicating the laboratory." you understand me ?!
mircea_popescu: but this is the fucking "career" of these schmucks. born 83, graduated "college" 2003, worked as
a fashion-culture-pop-media "editor" at some obscure local paper, then became "
a PR officer!!1" by now pretending to "cultural management". motherfucker. management ?!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i randomly clicked
a link from an 2008 article by the itisa dood. i suppose he was fucking her at the time or w/e.
mircea_popescu: "oh but mp, wetware-run fake accounts are real!!!" like hell they are. the fact that zuck uses
a buncha biosacks to do the job of ten lines of perl doesn't mean the biosacks aren't really shitty raspberrypis. what the fuck next, he's gonna run the shitstorm on z80s and pretend like the z80s are people because "they're louder, slower and burn more energy than proper computers" ?! THEY STILL DO THE EXACT SAME THING.
mircea_popescu: yet there she sits, and like her one billion utterly useless facebook tards. i've no doubt she votes, but not randomly -- she thinks she reasons! and in another decade she's gonna write
a "book". and so fucking following.
