a111: Logged on 2018-12-28 17:15 mircea_popescu: seems
to me
the unspoken heuristic is, "large enough so it's not meaningful [and
therefore large enough
to not bother] and small enough so it's not larger
than some other number i
thought about".
mircea_popescu: in a sense,
this is ~as much as we presently know~ of a ~perfect v
tree".
mircea_popescu: but imo,
the "number is divisible by
two if last digit is divisible by
two ; number is divisible by
three if sum of digits is divisible by
three ; number is divisible by five if last digit is divisible by five ; number is..." series is an EXCEPTIONALLY great model for
the problem of "write software". because it is an ~ordered~ list of ~programs~, by its very nature. ordered ~by an implicit order of
the problems~. and
the resu
mircea_popescu: but in
the end, what's
the rush even.
trilema didn't croak yest, and so here we are, can focus on other
things.
mircea_popescu: so in
truth we dunno, and as of yet we're not in a splendid position
to guess yet, either.
mircea_popescu: nor of any god-made promise going "a www server you'd care
to use can be made in less
than x lines of y".
mircea_popescu: (and
there's also no rule
the domain-extensions of "simple arithmetic"
they require would be deemed comprehensible by chtulhu)
mircea_popescu: there's no rule
they're short enough you'd consider
them fit in head.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i mean in
the
traditional school of digit manipulation.
mircea_popescu: but knowing
the rule for a number being divisible by 119 is comparatively less easy.
mircea_popescu: obviously it's ~extremely advantageous~
to know
that "the number
two quintillion quadrillion one is nevertheless divisible by 3".
mircea_popescu: HOWEVER,
the ~complexity of
their statement~ grows faster
than
the benefits.
mircea_popescu: consider
the item i was discussing with
the girls last nigyht over coffees :
there ~are~ rules for divisibility of integers for ~any~ integer, not just 2 or 3 or 5 or 9.
a111: Logged on 2019-01-22 14:29 asciilifeform: upstack
to apache -- half a million loc of C is still half a million loc of C , even if by all appearances 'works solidly for yrs'
mircea_popescu: ceterum autem censeo,
there's no fucking difference between random "career" whore and random cam whore.
they're
the exact same identical physical item.

the continent in many ways. " meanwhile in related lulz.

mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-22#1889134 <<
the discussion died (i have no doubt under exact same "gotta rsfm" pressure), but we were
talking 2016ish about needing own protocol (meanwhile in practice eulora is
trying udp and
that may even prove sufficient, eg). but yes,
tmsr router obviously premature.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: well if nothing else, we have
to put something into eventual cuntoo downstream, along with db and so on.
mircea_popescu: i suspect having people well experienced in such
things with
toy buttons first is
the way
to go.
mircea_popescu: that was my preferred angle
to approach
this problem, and so far we're in 2019 working on mid-2017
tasks.
mircea_popescu: but i am discouraged by
the result of
the
training exercise for
this matter, where apparently in spite of attempts
to standardize
the infinitely more complex mp-wp,
the result was similarly
tower of bable.
mircea_popescu: item as pristine out of box has a dozen or so dimensions and subdimensions
that hafta be fit into place, it's not ~really~ pret a porter (chiefly because one selling "all purpose cloth" can't sell it pre-cut)
a111: Logged on 2018-06-04 17:32 asciilifeform: junkyard wars (e.g.
trb, mp-wp) where one is stuck welding a
tank from 5 zaporozhets and 3 lada carcasses, because
that's what
there is
to work with, inevitably are heavyweight
mircea_popescu: yes, well, if you look at it functionally, apache (however scraped of fungus) is
the reason can even read
trilema
today.
mircea_popescu: so i suppose ~in
that limited sense~ it can be said "same
thing". but it is limited enough for
the alternation of seats
to be in
the end not surprising but rather
to be expected.
a111: Logged on 2019-01-07 19:29 mircea_popescu: i suppose in
this
the model breaks down, with
the advent of pseudo"technology",
the shy withdrawing

mircea_popescu: and even
taking
the epsilon% remaining, 99+% of when
THAT crashed it was because fucking drepper & co "upgraded" some shit.
mircea_popescu: linux kernel has a gash in itself, where "it gotta work with firmware" or "modules" or w/e
the crap. 99+% percent of
the
time kernel crashed it wasn't
the fucking kernel.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-21 17:01 asciilifeform: for instance, asciilifeform has '9000' processes on
this and other boxen, where uses 'screen+bash+etc for
tards' even
though
theoretically 'could emacs' ( see also e.g.
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-03#1869024 ) , because
they ~must not crash~ and emacs is unthreaded and hosable
mircea_popescu: the fucking insanity,
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-21#1882561 ;
the particular apache running
trilema has ~never~ crashed. nor do i expect it ever will ; nor can i conceive how
the fuck "it's open
to all comers on a net interface" can even begin
to be equated with "it's facing me and my keyboard and
that's all". you're not ~trying~
to fucking crash emacs, are you ? on
the fucking contrary, which is
the ~exact contrary~ of w
☝︎ mircea_popescu: yea, here's how
they resemble : 1. "why are you wearing
that old rag ?" "it's pretty" "maybe it was" "same difference" "mkay" vs 2. "why are you using
that old math ?" "itworks" "maybe it did" "also". 1===2~!!!1111

the efficiency ( joules out / joules in ) and even get ~exact estimate of how much useful work engine of particular size will do. but with shitware..

http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-06#1885092 << i have a couple and
the first one i bought i
think had
that issue, i didn't bother replacing it, and after first cleaning i believe it went away, or possibly i stopped noticing.
the one at my office definitely has clean clicks on all
they keys, so if it bothers you perhaps worth replacing
a111: Logged on 2019-01-21 00:07 asciilifeform: in asciilifeform's o(1)
tx indexer ( will be welded
to an experimental bdb once i get
the mmap
thing resolved )
there's a 2-level storage -- a 'write-once' o(1) index for blox of age N ( N can be 100-500 in practice ), and a much smaller rewritable one kept strictly in ram ( for 'recent' blox, where
the longest chain is potentially movable )
diana_coman: atm hands full so indeed, won't be able
to do anything about it anyway
diana_coman: anyways, I'll go and dig into
the comms protocol some more
diana_coman: I suppose you can at least
try and check whether standalone static might cure it,
though still weird
diana_coman: but so uhm, it builds with a main fine but it fails if you
try
to build it as a lib - why?
diana_coman: hm; earlier I used "standalone" as "standalone lib" because
there is such a
thing: it means precisely
that it includes ada run-time
