mircea_popescu: obviously (i would hope) i'm not proposing any naive solution will necessarily work well ; i'm just saying that it's not obvious to me a smart solution isn't available somewhere. in point of fact not merely p, but ~the whole class of things for which it stands as a most illustrative example~ is, if arguably not new, in any case the continuation of work in fields and along lines neglected for at least three if not more than
mircea_popescu: but in any case no such thing as "random" exists in the fucking machine --- if it did, you wouldn't need to buy fg's for it, now would you.
mircea_popescu will import by reference the story of mel. what "random access", it's onlty random if you don't know what you're doing and at bootstrap phase the item's too close to starting position to have complexity-exploded out of your hands already as a matter of necessity.
mircea_popescu: yet maybe you don't actually have to.
mircea_popescu: i didn't mean the code, i meant the ram it needs to function.
mircea_popescu: we don't need the bootstrapper to fit in x kb.
bvt: i also don't like how at the 'mes' stage a linux kernel 'magically' appears as the underlying substrape, while stage0 parts are designed to work without os
bvt: OriansJ in #bootstrappable has a notion of hygiene (at least basic, ie groks fits-in-head), and still works on the stage0; i had no interaction with janneke (mes author) yet, so can't make claims about him. he does make some noise in the #bootstrappable and #guix
bvt: hello. i did not manage to finish work on mes report part 2 last week, and i don't have a possibility to do any work this week. i plan to finish it around weekend next week.
mircea_popescu: apparently idiots don't get names, they get collapsed into the tree of their stupidities.
mircea_popescu: i dunno why don't they just put the "fuel economy magnets" people in congress directly. properly speaking, there's no other substance to "america".
asciilifeform: i can't picture how to argue that c ~wasn't~ a socialist
mircea_popescu: i don;t have a very clear view of patton ; but churchill is exactly as much a socialist as the whole temperance movement. he was unequivocally identified as such by ~all contemporaries, what, just because dumb soviet kid never heard of churchill other than for one newspaper notice dated 1945 this means something ? by the time hitler came to power churchill had been an openly socialist politician for a decade+
phf: nginx knows how to cache items properly, but backend doesn't send proper headers yet, to indicate invalidation. there's really no reason anything in btcbase/patches needs to rerender itself everytime, but the relevant bits are not in place.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: it was maxint in that usg wouldn't actually sell the tax stamp anywhere
mircea_popescu: i can't readily say what it is i actually want algorithmically, which is why i'm not even certain it can be had. but the scrolling hurts my precious inner child.
mircea_popescu: moreover, check out the similar pattern of reaction to alterity : someone's unimpressed with this "marx" symbol ? must be immaturity! because the only 0-cost explanation of difference would be... "the different hasn't yet matured into us". anything else, profoundly threatening to the narc^Hsocialist.

mircea_popescu: phf, and since i'm doing whining : can there be an alternate mode where lines are always interleaved, like in this beauty ? eg, http://btcbase.org/patches/mp-wp_add-footnotes-and-textselectionjs#selection-5661.0-5158.160 and http://btcbase.org/patches/mp-wp_add-footnotes-and-textselectionjs#selection-5335.0-5158.58 needn't appear that far apart (leaving asi
mircea_popescu: i don't give a shit if it makes 50mb pages. for THIS, and i know of no other use (perhaps "full list of comments on blog article"), any length is legitimate use of the mbs.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-24 23:23 mircea_popescu: and no, oif course he doesn't "own rights". that's both why you're supposed to make y0our own blog, rather than rely on some usg.scammer platform (be it called "facebook" or "mit", it makes exactly no difference, all the products of socialism are the same product).

mircea_popescu: so -- if you don't like the strange rules the old women at the canasta club came up with, one very obvious, wide and practical avenue would be to... find something more age, gender, circumstance and mental-nonimpaired appropriate to do with your evenings.
mircea_popescu: but in any case, i don't know anyone who seriously believes "universities" are either important, noteworthy, or influential. for ~same money could discuss "canasta clubs" or w/e.
BingoBoingo: There were also all sorts of places on the campuses I wasn't "allowed" to piss, where I did indeed piss after spirited drinking.
chonkin: Universities don't operate by the rules of the outside world. They take affirmative action seriously and totally implement quotas
BingoBoingo: That they use a weird label doesn't mean the stupidity ratchet isn't being turned where it can be turned http://trilema.com/2018/the-stupidity-ratchet/
mircea_popescu: moreover, "the judiciary" doesn't exist and doesn't figure as a matter of course ; with the exception of a particularly tenous attempt at empire building by the anglos, coupla centuries ago, "the judiciary" is ~same as "the bugaboo"
chonkin: (To be more serious about this) Stalin didn't do anything really original if you look at how monarchs and other petty princes operated since Rome
mircea_popescu: the two aren't in any sense distinct anyway.
BingoBoingo: I wouldn't either. It's just a destructive fad.
chonkin: I wouldn't say things like Keynesian economics is a "dangerous ideology"
mircea_popescu: nor are they properly called names, really. the plebs don't get names per se, rather the ~names~ get plebs associated now and again.
BingoBoingo: ty hanbot. I don't recall finding that one in the wild. May actually be new coinage.
mircea_popescu: chonkin, amusingly enough, "economists" also aren't somebody, so this doesn't do much.
mircea_popescu: chonkin, most of that's your own read-in. i simply pointed out "marx" isn't somebody. you wanna carry a discussion with someone, you're stuck using mutual ground. you're more than welcome to think what you will, but to me marx is indistinguishable from any other blog spammer, for reasons explained. you're more than welcome to engage those or not, but that's about how far it goes.
chonkin: My perspective is that we are concentraing on the role of police in society, which Marx had a very cynical take on identical to some postings here. I wasn't placing his bust on a pedestal or defending the body of his works
BingoBoingo: Most of the Venezolanas immigrating to down here this year don't have thick resumes
chonkin: I don't have a thick enough resume to immigrate
BingoBoingo: Why haven't you left yet?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo, nah. it was quite literal, i just don't recall the nouns so my search dun work
mircea_popescu: lol don't tell me, tehy're gonna magically get laid ?
mircea_popescu: it doesn't work for "RodneyOnern" earlier today and it didn't work for "Karl Marx" earlier this century. the irrelevant circumstance that some blogs publish spam and some morons became michael jackson fans or roosh v or karl marx or dale carnegie fans/true believers/whatever is exactly as the word says : irrelevant.
BingoBoingo: The world working a certain way and Marx mentioning those workings doesn't make talking about those workings Marxist
BingoBoingo: <chonkin> mircea_popescu Are you nudge-winking me that "every single sentence Marx put to paper was metphysically incorrect, so don't dare compare me to him in his wrong-ity"??? << You have to look at what the man was saying. Marx is a rather late fellow, 19th century. The world worked long before Marx. Marx cribbed a guy http://bingology.net/2016/01/24/the-theoretical-foundation-of-social-engineering-practice/ and tried to use the
mircea_popescu: no, i'm saying that some random dork misspelling shakespeare isn't a "problem" or something shakespeare has to deal with.
chonkin: mircea_popescu Are you nudge-winking me that "every single sentence Marx put to paper was metphysically incorrect, so don't dare compare me to him in his wrong-ity"???
mircea_popescu: chonkin, the dispute isn't whether "marx blathered in this vein". you know who bowdler was ?
mircea_popescu: you understand this, the peons ~can not be said to substantially eixst~! they aren't fucking here in any sense.
mircea_popescu: because i don't, to me it's all the same vaudeville.
chonkin: NOt on paper they aren't.
asciilifeform: problem exists strictly for folx who didn't get the memo, aha
mircea_popescu: well, yes. the matter still stands, police aren't held to specifically do anything. there's a lengthy string of cases going way past the 70s.
mircea_popescu: chonkin, why don't you use the proper format for logline referencing, like http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-24#1904339 ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: chonkin, point still remains, security guards aren't there to get involved in shootouts.
mircea_popescu: well, a) mall cops aren't cops, they're security guards and b) the hotel security guard who pestered that guy in florida pretty much generated the shooting.
chonkin: The first reaction was "What a coward! How could he!" et cetera. After the emotional fire subsided to embers it was "Didn't that cop have an obligation to go in there and engage in teh shooter?" then it was ---
BingoBoingo: I though he was a full fledged sheriff's deputy that couldn't even be a mall cop
mircea_popescu: yeah, the us went down the tubes, didn't it.
chonkin: OUtside this chatroom, you can't even state the possibility that urban black youth commit more crime than their white counterparts.
mircea_popescu: i don't think that failure is either contentious or needs much elaboration. it's obvious enough, the socialist dreams have failed wholesale.
BingoBoingo: chonkin: I suspect it isn't as strong of a regional thing in the US as the media folks push with the red/blue state stuff. Lots of bipeds in the US are literate in exactly the same way 98% of Uruguayos are literate.
chonkin: I won't deny.
chonkin: mircea_popescu Well -- I didn't even draw any conclusions. And because I did not virtue signal and chatter and state the colonizing oppression theory, I was called "shithead" and put on permanent ignore.
chonkin: This took place on another network. I didn't draw conclusions, I was told "Welcome to permament ignore, shithead"
mircea_popescu: speaking of federation and stuff : hey spyked phf ben_vulpes : how much trouble would it be to log every channel in every network over 50 users ? item shouldn't be publicly exposed, but as a fullsearch query (say limited from l1). something like !Xircs "naked sluts" nin?s returning all the lines matching, in a paste encrypted to caller. ☟︎
billymg: hanbot: let me know if trying to press again with the patches from http://billymg.com/mp-wp-vtree/ doesn't work and i can look into it
hanbot: 5. i specifically checked, sieving the file through tr -dc '\0-\177' produces the exact same object unchanged, so i don't think it's utf shenanigans.
mircea_popescu notices he didn't write up the ballad of buster scriggs, proceeds to fix
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> the ppls don't see how electronics relates to them! << The rule the Peruana has to follow is the less important something seems, the more important it actually is.
mircea_popescu: the ppls don't see how electronics relates to them!
mircea_popescu: except some dood selling bracelet stamped parts from china, "crafts" for the esty moron femcrowd ain't the same as the hamradio4lyf dood.
asciilifeform: the genuine 'can't gets' , i stocked up on
mircea_popescu: by which i don't mean "can't be got", especially "at my so and so magic provider who's essentially this 60yo who will soon die".
mircea_popescu: i honestly don't expect we'll ever be recreating these gnarly insanities. x86 mobos nothing to worship, even leaving aside the
asciilifeform: mine wasn't an obvious (sans mag glass) capdeath either iirc
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if you still haven't thrown that mobo and wanna put it back in service, feel free to gpgram which caps you need, and where to poste'em, i'ma send you some from own crate, then possibly you can get the bmw fixer d00d to solder it for a bottle o'rum or etc
asciilifeform: so we begin with the accumulator having 2*3 = 6 , and roll from there ( the first number tested is 5, then after that 7, then gets to 9 and that's the first rejected one that doesn't get multiplied in, then 11 does, then .... and so forth until the termination condition )
a111: Logged on 2019-03-23 10:33 mircea_popescu: sooo, my amd socket 3 mobo that was powering the chatstation crapped out. just like that, turned off for the last time, wouldn't come back.
mircea_popescu: obviously i did what any respectable lord would do : reach for the spare. which, once installed, wouldn't post either, just spun the cpu fan at max rotation and that's that.

diana_coman: hello asciilifeform ; ftr I've been enjoying the pehbot demos but atm I don't have a lot of time to catch up faster with ffa, sadly.
diana_coman: other than that I don't know of other patches though perhaps hanbot is the best person to ask about this
diana_coman: phf: I don't see there any sig from billymg for his patches though?
hanbot: billymg: these are the totality of your mp-wp patches, yes? http://billymg.com/2019/01/minor-mp-wp-patch-updates/ ; i don't recall anyone else having patches, please chime in if you do. meanwhile phf please add <--- to mp-wp tree, and i'ma solder these to the genesis after which danielpbarron i'd be happy to show you how to make a vpatch for your fix.
danielpbarron: i don't know how to make patches, but i'd sign yours
danielpbarron: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-21#1903847 << i did a lazy greping of *.php files for "function(" and haven't yet found similar cases. There are two other anonymous funcitons without a "use" but they also don't have any outside variables to use, so no harm. The rest of the hits are on "create_function" which is similar to an anonymous function but is not victim to the same upgrading problem (still ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Burglars aren't much of a thing. Gun laws used to be very loose, though they are tighter now. There's not much in the houses to steal that isn't in their mochillas when the folks go out.
BingoBoingo: I try explaining to the Latinos and Latinas that US houses in the burbs don't have bars on the windows because there isn't shit inside worth taking, given the risk of getting shot invading a stranger's home.
diana_coman: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-03-21#1903897 -> expert pickpocket is first of all expert in choosing victim; that being said, in Bucharest it was the 601 bus (always overflowing) and/or buses/trams from the North Station (bc. people with luggage in a hurry to get on the bus); this doesn't mean that it's not obvious and avoidable but assuming you want to bait them for the xp, those are easy spots. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: You don't walk around orcistan asking for it.
BingoBoingo: There's Y-chromosone bipeds who swear they keep getting robbed by motochorros. It's the same folks all the time, because they won't stop going around like fucking scared rabbits.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: there's this notion among folx who won't even go, on a bet, to the reservation, 'cannibals will eat immediately'
BingoBoingo: Well, you've been in the US a while. You aren't going to go up to a pack of Urban youths and ask to take a picture with them.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu are you running trilema on older php that doesn't need this tweak ?
diana_coman: either it doesn't strip 2 levels or it doesn't strip specifically inside pre
mircea_popescu: and evidently moderation's not involved : qntra doesn't and bingology does, but same result.
hanbot: well better that than untraceable sidecase. sorry this wasn't caught sooner.
a111: Logged on 2019-03-20 22:19 hanbot: diana_coman, there's at least one instance of this happening on my blog (http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-26#1729169), but i dun recall doing anything to "fix" it, unhelpfully. maybe it's actually 100% broken and i just don't get link comments? lessee.
