asciilifeform: bvt: you have more than twice the # of cache evictions
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform aha. kinda my thought also.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm not surprised, considering that bounds check overhead (in ada with all safeties switched on) magnifies the 'losing' of a losing (for particular width) algo
asciilifeform: bvt: ty for reading, signing, and publishing experiment -- i will include your seals in ch16 article
mircea_popescu: i don't think so.
bvt: yes, and it's also true for memory accesses. however the number of executed instructions also increased a lot, which makes me suspect that there is something i missed
mircea_popescu: bvt if you think about it, it has to be slower, because operations are fast and allocations slow. ☟︎
bvt: as far as code speed is concerned, i still don't know whether i fucked up something, or the algorithm is fundamentally slow after some bignum size
bvt: re math, i found that htmling it would be unreadable, so decided to use images.
mircea_popescu: apparently, the split variant is ~slower~.
mircea_popescu: apologetic girl -- "today's the last of my hormone pills, might have something to do with it". deaf mp -- "whore moan pills ?!"
BingoBoingo: https://twitter.com/BBoingo/status/1086854906055741440 << mircea_popescu Seems I have yet to get twatter banned
BingoBoingo: ^ Yes I raised the alarm. Efforts to convince me to lower it are welcome. If you are outside my L1 you need to offer a stake and odds for your petition to be considered.
BingoBoingo: And that aircraft carrier mght be sinking sooner rather than later
BingoBoingo: The anglophone press is saying sophisticated SSL fuckery is involved in the block rather than the usual DNS shennanigans
BingoBoingo: Meanwhile there is a story floating around that Wikipedo does not load in Vzla after some stunt changing the President according to wikipedia to an opposition leader. At the same time girl on the ground in Vzla reports that wikipedo does indeed load.
BingoBoingo: Meanwhile in other fallout from the new penal code: https://www.reddit.com/r/uruguay/comments/ahax04/se_cans%C3%B3_de_esperar_en_banifox_y_se_rob%C3%B3_una_play/
BingoBoingo: Well, there's the possibility of that happening in Venezuala though "Greatest Ally Israel" doesn't neighbor Venezuala and therefore need forever war
mircea_popescu: also, watching the http://trilema.com/2017/color-revolutions-green-or-today-in-usg-corruption-careerism-cronyism-and-malfeasance-in-the-special-warfare-center/ crowd fight short angry machete-equipped latinos would really rock.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo there's this theory that if you keep beating them eventually they transcend ; but empirically it turned out you're exactly right, if you beat clay you don't get man, you get silt, ie, finer clay.
BingoBoingo: Well Orange Man is supposed to give a speech sometime today. Maybe it'll be the orders to deploy them as southern border sandbags to fight Sinaloa/Zeta/Etc
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: it's a crying shame they didn't send ~all~ the 'java gurlz' to syria, to use for sandbags.
asciilifeform: when he ran outta juice for that, i quit reading, there was literally 0 else worth even passing look
asciilifeform: kinda like in late '90s asciilifeform read sci.physics just to watch al schwartz trash idjits
asciilifeform: imho that was the 1st and last readable item there
BingoBoingo: For a while watching hanbot beat the tards was fun until the quality of surviving tard dropped too low
asciilifeform admits : was never able to stomach reading tardstalk with any regularity, cuz it ALWAYS read like this, from birth
asciilifeform: if not today then tomorrow, verily
asciilifeform: 'pleez sir buy this very fine islamic death ray , only 0.1 btc'
BingoBoingo: Or the fact the only people doing the garbage recollection business in USistan with anything approaching the Uruguayo intensity are 'law enforcers'
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> dunno, cuz collects 100% garbage ? ( tho admittedly this never stopped'em before.. ) << If the USG didn't collect garbage for the sake of collecting garbage how else do you explain the Amazing Java Girl dying in Syria?
mircea_popescu: garbage collects garbage, yes, like you collect protein. what's to be expected ?
a111: Logged on 2018-12-12 22:15 feedbot: http://qntra.net/2018/12/fbi-entraps-young-woman-into-terrorism-charges-by-becoming-her-entire-social-circle/ << Qntra -- FBI Entraps Young Woman Into Terrorism Charges By Becoming Her Entire Social Circle
mircea_popescu: what is http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-12#1880409 , bona fide terrorist ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: dunno, cuz collects 100% garbage ? ( tho admittedly this never stopped'em before.. )
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It's a USG target, why would they let the thing go dark and die when they can low effort collect still more noise in the undeadening venue
asciilifeform: lol i had nfi tardstalk were still around
BingoBoingo: Indeed, but with the low volume of new posts it is a very cucky cuck transition indeed.
mircea_popescu: usual fate of these things, degenerate in a festival of cucks cucking cucks, usg.fbi style.
mircea_popescu: lotta sold accounts on tardstalk anyways.
BingoBoingo: Hard to tell if the account was sold or traded, but the contrast between hardware entrepreneur in his mind to almost-Pinoy type posts is lulzy
mircea_popescu: right to forgetfulness!!!
BingoBoingo: In other vitage trilema: http://trilema.com/2013/whats-a-sperglord/ A certain Sperglord's tardstalk account has indeed been active since sperging out in 2012-13
mircea_popescu: far as cuckold itself, it seems to be more niche than it was say 5 years ago. Why is that? I'm seeing this stag/vixen thing being mentioned a lot more when I read websites. I didn't even know that was a thing?").
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in sad lulz, https://www.blacktowhite.net/threads/moving-away-from-cuckold-into-stag-vixen.146933/ ("Are people moving away? I'm noticing a shift in ads, profiles and websites that I browse. No one is really looking for a cuckold thing anymore. I got enthralled with the cuckold fantasy and I would love to meet a couple that was for it. But Cuckolds couples are hard to find. Couples, single females are easier but as ☟︎
mircea_popescu: this is true.
asciilifeform: stands to reason there would be 'fractal posers', on 9000 levels of magnification.
asciilifeform: whoknows. but given the existence of the masochist folx, not much of a leap to picture the existence also of 'double agent' masochist, who takes delight in seekritly jimmying the cock seal, etc
mircea_popescu: i wonder if they know this.
asciilifeform: little plastic padlock, comes in crates of 9000 , with consecutive stamped #s. ( not only quite simple to forge, but jimmies with ordinary hairpin, like 19th c. handcuffs , and snaps closed again... )
mircea_popescu: kinda funny tho, mexicans gotta do the plumbing, blacks gotta do the fucking, women gotta do the erections... it's just a lotta work for erryone else.
mircea_popescu: anyway, there's a large twitter subculture of this whole thing. all the way to https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DxEsy1TWkAEoGgZ.jpg
mircea_popescu: very strong undercurrent of cheapness in the usovok these days.
asciilifeform: in ye olde sovok they used pb seals on iron wire, stamped with signet; but in usa pb is envirowhiner-verboten, ergo plastic
mircea_popescu: i imagine they're just cheap.
asciilifeform: holding the cock gasket in place
asciilifeform: lol that's a , didjaknow, standard usa mains current meter seal.
mircea_popescu: i expect something in the vein of https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DQp94hcW0AAwFYQ.jpg
asciilifeform: wtf's that mean in context of (what is evidently a) trans-whatever ?
asciilifeform: quite likely they have an eventual capitulation to llvm ( and 'unification of the churches'(tm) ) planned as well, but i have nfi what's the holdup there
asciilifeform: the gcc5+ gnomes, occupy selves with cranking out 'mandatory' kludges for intelism; removing backend support for vintage, marginally-sane archs (alpha, hitachi, etc); gluing-with-broken-glass various incompatibilities to prevent coad developed under 5+ from building under 4.x; inserting 'optimizations' that snake around naive cprogrammer attempts at bounds-constraint; and so forth.
asciilifeform: as for gcc, the mushroom let it go in mid-2000s, moar or less.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: his last , near as i can tell, act as a human, was to try & keep this liquishit out of his signed kernel tree. for which he was 'retired'.
mircea_popescu: useless turdheads, what fucking torvalds.
asciilifeform: Official gcc is , didja know, up to version ~8~ nao. and packed fulla 'beautiful surprises', this is by no means the only 1.
asciilifeform: on ~that~ end, the human mushroom looong ago opened the gates.
mircea_popescu: im talking of gcc.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it's a google-submitted patch, and it got eaten by the new, 'improved' torvalds, near as i can tell
asciilifeform: whole thrust is to 'nobus-maintain' the scenario where you buy 5 cpu-minutes on lullazon's cluster and get root. rather than to keep neighbouring lullazon-hruscheba tenants from fucking one another
mircea_popescu: what the fuck happened to all the foss pretense!
mircea_popescu: fucking hell this bs, srsly, gcc now comes with a kernel-specific purpose flag ?
mircea_popescu: haha, what, you compile with the same ~special, purpose made~ gcc flag!!!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: observe that all of the various Official 'speculative leak' kludges, ~even supposing they worked 100% of time~, only apply to ~kernel~ -- they do 0 to prevent 'ring3' (luserland) processes from leaking
asciilifeform: it appears 'fast' cuz fulla various 'and now we can cut THIS corner' crapola.
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/2014/how-to-deal-with-pseudoscience/ very much apropos all this "knowledge".
asciilifeform: naggum's http://www.loper-os.org/?p=165#selection-85.0-85.510 thing dun merely apply to c. it applies just same to the 'progress' of intel shitirons.
mircea_popescu: it's high time for an actually functional cpu.
asciilifeform: errything from tlb cache to branch diddling to 'hyperthread' to 'register-renaming' to... etc
asciilifeform: (i.e. kludges introduced so that winblowz will run in slightly less geological time, 1990s-current)
asciilifeform: rright, but to get any actual effect would have to also offer offswitch for 9000 other idjit 'optimizations'
mircea_popescu: it'd still what it'd mean for it to work.
mircea_popescu: rather than "turn it off 78% of tyhe time or so" ?
asciilifeform: it dun have an off switch tho
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform turn off intel\s "helpful" bs ?
mircea_popescu: not ffa ; the "lfence" bs i mean.
asciilifeform: it 'works' in the same way as other 'nobus-maintenance' kludges (e.g. koch's 2016 patch) 'work' -- raise bar so that nobus
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what would it mean for the kludge to 'work' ? it aint as if x86 actually offers process isolation.
asciilifeform takes the occasion to observe that ffa is 'speculation'-proof, not only in theory but as empirically tested on 7 ( & counting ) intel boxen of various vintages
mircea_popescu: really, "infinite non-returning loop" to prevent intel shitware from "speculating" ?
asciilifeform: ( and before anyone loses appetite, this experiment was on a test box in torture room, not in pizarro )
asciilifeform: briefly revisiting the http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-18#1888182 find : 'CONFIG_RETPOLINE=n' yields a working kernel (with gcc 4.x), for nao. ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: in other noose, all temps on uy1 in-range.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sounds potentially interesting. ( if you publish outputs, plox to not forget to say what pressing that trb was made from )
a111: Logged on 2019-01-14 03:53 mircea_popescu: in other arcana : i have here a copy of trb that has died a mysterious death on dec 31st. the process itself hasn't returned, ps aux lists it as expected, however the last time it touched any files was two weeks ago, nor does a call to getinfo ever return.
BingoBoingo remembers early Qntra days when spamtrap was mostly 'Can't believe its not name brand apparel outlet', but that has just about all been replaced by drugspam
mircea_popescu: &#039; as god intended it. wtf happened there.
mircea_popescu: Don't let them get in for cheap
mircea_popescu: what the fuck is Don’t
BingoBoingo: I've encountered quite a bit of it in my spam traps as well as searching for life various all comers spam traps.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i was doing the annoying but occasionally inescapable chore of sweeping out a spamola-encrusted mailbox, and ~100% of the spams were for something nominally smokable/pillable/etc
