mircea_popescu: i can think of little more shameful than dood's "career", such
as it is.
diana_coman: am
as input/output, with the reference implementation to check against
bvt:
as i mentioned, currently i can show results only from live cuntoo
a111: Logged on 2019-03-09 22:35 asciilifeform: btw, bvt , rax etc. ~are~ encoded
as 1-8, the iron dun see reg names at all, the classic names are a convention of the asmers and the vendor docs. and imho remains on acct of the asinine x86isms like MUL which use fixed input and output regs, makes'em slightly easier to remember.
mircea_popescu: the problem with any other datastruct, such
as octets or words, is that you never know how large it is.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, what is the gain vs having
as input octets or words?
mircea_popescu: i really do not wish to see c strings, and i don't perceive char buffer to be different. "bitstream" does not exist. so my thinking is, to henceforth mandate datapassing
as such a field.
mircea_popescu: bflame how about you make yourself useful and implement a keccak
as discussed ^ then patch diana_coman 's tree with it.
diana_coman: that requires simply a bit-level keccak; which requires in turn someone with the time to do the transformation
as it were
mircea_popescu: to be clear : i expect that in the regular course of republican work, GB-sized vdiffs will occur -- strictly because we're contemplating confiscating all sort and manner of heathen artefact, and by now bloat is just a synonym for heathen. the "increase stack" fix works ok
as a stop-gap, but we can't really 8x everything just for boredom.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman do you see the wisdom in implementing a keccak variant that uses
eucomms-style fields ? so that something like "hello world" would be passed
as 0x01146865 6c6c6f77 6f726c64
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, when he says "explodes" he means that keccak implementation expects
as input a bitstream where each bit is stored in an octet
diana_coman: apparently vdiff is correct after all and there is this thing it sees - it just took me a bit to find it
as I thought it was just a misplaced path rather than...the actual thing,huh
trinque: seems
as though there's a dereferenced symlink munged into the path.
diana_coman: trinque, that's weird; fwiw: no, my home dir
as far
as I can see is *not* in the profiles directory
phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-10#1901200 << that is not at all the problem. i can read the file just fine, but
as i do i feed chunks of it to keccak. keccak doesn't take char buffers, it wants "bitstream" i.e. arrays of bits, which means whatever char
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform imo it is the job of the kernel to expose all available memory (ram, and fucking hell, disk, too, ALL available memory) to me
as i fucking want it : stack, cpu registers, heap, whatever it is i wanna call it.
diana_coman: I don't recall it being discussed in detail (i.e. with numbers for stack size and input size) anywhere and I think it should be, if it stays
as it is
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, yes, I don't suspect the code is broken
as such but it is a limitation of the approach and I did not really expect bumping into it at 7MB

as a central driver of the whole cs insanity.

I'd like you to reproduce the commands starting at line 114 of scripts/make_portage_tree.sh in your build directories, i.e. cd ~/src/cuntoo/build/cuntoo and then run them,

as far
as 512 bits bus can address, if you're installing that. meaning, all core registers are allocated
as memory anyways. and that's fucking it.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-10 02:24 mircea_popescu: any fucking monkey picked out in the street could have made ~just
as good~ a "corporate executive"
as the fucktards apple hired -- and somehow nobody is telling them this. and of course the idiots don't have the werewithal to look in the mirror, "if plumbers were
as good at plumbing
as we are at executiving, we'd be quite literally swimming in the shit we're metaphorically drowning in!"
a111: Logged on 2019-03-10 03:02 mircea_popescu: but speaking of those design decisions, by my current thinking the ideal processor is defined
as follows : the bus width is 512bits ; therefore the byte is 512bits. the processing core is a state machine, with 512 byte-sized registers. a processor is composed of 512 + 8*9 such cores. for convenience imagine them organized in a cube, 8x8x8, with an extra 64 item layer on three sides.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: id cow "from twitter" explaining @whatever conference "how serious they take banning" blinks incomprehendingly just
as she's done with her soundbytes. yeah, why is it ??? there's entirely no difference between any of them and any other aspiring-writers-in-new-york, philosophy of art history studies rejects the world over. why those, why not these ? blink blink ?

as to how "of course i'm teh vp, didn';t you see the sign on the door ?"
a111: Logged on 2019-03-09 22:38 asciilifeform: if you ever wonder why your x64 iron draws 50x the wattage to do same thing
as e.g. rk, wonder no longer -- the insanity where shit gets moved around to accomodate idjit instructions with fixed in/out hoppers, the insanity where you gotta set prefixes to specify what width ~each operand~ is (why this is needed ? srsly) , all of this adds up to 3bil transistors that heat the room

☟︎ mircea_popescu: which is JUST
AS BROKEN BY DESIGN. ctrl-d will end a file AND kill a terminal, but not touch a task. ctrl-c will kill n levels of task depth,
as in her example, FOUR.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: there's a difference between selecting for intelligent users and selecting for inept hoop jumping acrobatic users -- and "foss" managed to implement the 2nd kind while loudly making postureclaims
as to everything under the sun.
mircea_popescu: most amusing element -- neither of the "parties" involved read
as much
as a line of ye olde menshevik-bolshevik disputes.
mircea_popescu: "racism is cover for capitalism" ongoing in oither soviet
as we speak.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-08 18:05 asciilifeform: iirc trinque had an experimental proggy that takes a running kernel's lspci / lsmod output, and diddles an existing config so
as to give a kernel that boots on $iron . but afaik not yet published.
hanbot: BingoBoingo please gpg-gram me credentials
as per last coupla reboots.
trinque: asciilifeform: shape of it
as I vaguely recall is that the bot-stuck-away state looks like bot-connected from PoV of bot
BingoBoingo: Well, look a it the other way. Intel has been shipping actual quantum computers for over a decade. Now not quantum in an useful way, and possibly quantum in the worst way, but
as quantum in the most commercially relevant way so far.
BingoBoingo: Aite, just wanted to make sure you weren't driving dull side into ground, climbing, and using sharp side
as seat. Once again a case of reserve sharp side for enemy.
shinohai: Throw at enemy, laugh
as they attempt removal or drop now useless shield.
a111: Logged on 2019-02-07 16:49 asciilifeform: in other cuntooisms : if anyone is short a x64 box to test-fire cuntoo with, asciilifeform has a surplus disposable box, 'lenovo s10-3' , with that same chipset
as in x60 etc period (
https://archive.is/Dny84 ) , if anyone in l1 wants, it's yours for the cost of postage ( has a mechanical hdd in it, i fughet of what size )

as old floppies )
mircea_popescu: should show the parent. basically, the way this whole thing works is
as follows : 1. linux is organized around "processes", which are a sort of agents let's say. they're listed in /proc/ ; 2. any process can spawn other processes, the whole menagerie's spawned by the kernel (which in systemd thing is also process 1, hence the whole
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-19#1863880 thing ). 3. a process can close, or be terminated, ki
☝︎ mircea_popescu: a more balanced distribution of your own brainpower to the trees of your own life can only benefit you.
as it is, you're stuck now spending weeks of time to deal with the results of decisions that took minutes to take on the basis of information you "compiled" in half seconds, by sucking thumbs.
mircea_popescu: and
as to b), you never to my fucking knowledge said the "hey honey, ima go see if i can find something to shoot at in the forest" part. it's never "hey, i plan to spend so much dough to realise this much unbooked profit on the basis of this pricetag and through this process"
mircea_popescu: the cost to own, the cost to use, these fucking figure into the total cost. what good is it you got something 50 or 500 or 5000 bucks cheaper than "the average" if the average wasn't even correctly calculated and
as a bonus you lose your horses die in the fire started by the wife's funeral candles ?!
mircea_popescu:
as to a) : 1. you see an item for sale, for price X. 2. you don't even bother to calculate the expected-average-X, i suspect, but merely "intuit" it, without even a full second's thought. 3. you calculate X-imagined-avg-X thus obtaining a delta, which then motivates you to purchase, and in the process ALSO commits you.
BingoBoingo: ^ Marketing roughly in the same league
as a razor company telling their customers they need to be more feminine men
mircea_popescu:
as you stand right now, you're in a much worse position than nicoleci. she's a smart girl that got cheated out of an education, and consequently catching up. you're a smart boy that ~refuses~ education, and consequently spinning in place, in 2019 same problems
as 2018.
mircea_popescu: again... did that make some sort of sense
as an answer in your head, that was lost on its way to my head ? because i don't see it
mircea_popescu: what you do is what every other similar idiot did since the invention of empire : keep balooning your debts, "yes i'm late with instalment 1 but instalment 2 will be 3x
as big! [and also, of course, late]"
mircea_popescu: there's a reason management exists,
as a profession. that reason is in full display above : left to their own devices, people like you fuck themselves.
mircea_popescu: basically, i think i can authoritatively say, on the basis of having been trying to manage your efforts in the past however many years nsa existed, your approach to work is
as follows : 1. there's an indistinct and unspecified ball of things you deduced you want on the basis of them being more or less connected to a core of goodness which, not necessarily very examinedly, seems to yield them
as first degree relations. 2. you
mircea_popescu: at issue is no kind of objective constraint. at issue is your very infantile approach to work, which could be best summarized
as "oh! shiny!".

BingoBoingo: "This does look to be nearly 20 year old tech. It was used
as a supplement for the process to work on I/O devices. It’s actually not needed at all with your system."
