this is documented or mentioned nowhere ) : it is impossible
to have a Ada.Finalization.Limited_Controlled
type ANYWHERE inside a static library, unless it is generic all
the way down (i.e. if
the lib package is generic, any sub-packages must also be instantiated as generics )

two hands, something i had every intention
to avoid ; and we'll be looking at integrating cuntoo on
the server side later on.
there's some db work in
the hopper also, but
that's even further on
the maturity vine.

the logged discussion on
the
topic was, "if hashes match but paths do not,
the file was moved ; if hashes match and paths match,
the file is untouched ; if hashes do not match but paths match
the file was modified ; if hashes do not match and paths do not match
the file was created/deleted"

to
try
this on a few forums?
mircea_popescu: the ~algo~
tho. not specifically for v
trees, but it strikes me
there doesn't exist currently a bin differ ~at all~.
mircea_popescu: maybe it;s not as wrong as all
that. did you ever make
that
thing ?
mircea_popescu: he promised
to ask you for an item ? or is
this ada n-w published somewhere meanwhile ?
a111: Logged on 2018-10-06 23:51 phf: asciilifeform: i don't have binary diffing even in prototype form, if you could adaize your needleman-wunsch i could add it
to vtools,
the way i did with diana_coman's keccak

the conclusion of
the
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-19#1881988 discussion was,
three weeks later.
the man sits among a republic built on a certain methodology, aims
to quietly use
the exact ~other~ methodology, makes no prior mention of
this, candidly references
the latter as if it worked notwithstanding how howlingly it failed

a111: Logged on 2019-01-05 14:22 mircea_popescu: finally, asciilifeform is working on rsa-based ssl-ism replacement (notwithstanding he ~seems
to be~ working on any and all wank on
the "side" during spare
time he doesn't have and all
that), which we want so we can finally move bitcoin off sheer cretinity and into cuntoo (and which is principally why we want sane db also, but as i said -- yet immature).
mircea_popescu: this about concludes
the state of affairs ; i'd like nothing more
than corrections, disputations &c by
they involved.
mircea_popescu: so, phf : how about you start clearly communicating yourself, beginning with a complete, correct and
true
to life adnotation of said discussion in your own hand, because
this "ima go meditate on
things until everyone involved forgot what i was meditating on" isn't a workable approach
to intellectual life.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: l i have not
the faintest what even came of
the long avoided but eventually unavoidable discussion.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-19 20:09 phf: you're constantly in logs, confused as
to how anyone can get anything from anyone, yet now you're questioning my methods.

☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: which leaves phf ; who's doing an excellent job maintaining very elegant and well done extant infrastructure, and a very
terrifyingly poor job at communicating himself.
mircea_popescu: but really, it serves no one
to let me suspect. i should know.
mircea_popescu: ave1 is, i suspect, silently working on gnating
things -- which is fine and valuable except for
the silently part.
there's
this
tendency of lone wolf scientist
to not properly report failures, out of an imaginary saving of
time and resources
this permits. it must be said
that NOTHING could be further from
the
truth, nothing at all --
there's more
to be gained from a properly reported failure
to find
than out of
ten shiny succ
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: let's just say it's my considered oppinion "difficulty in reconciling" such is almost never actually due
to said saeculum.
mircea_popescu: spyked is evidently
trying, hence feedbot, but evidently having
trouble reconciling saeculum, which i'm going
to let stand as such on
the grounds
that he's new -- even
though experience shows
that as a dubious idea [for all
the eg one could possibly need witness how asciilifeform 's still in
the swamp, so many years later].
☟︎ mircea_popescu: lobbes recently unveiled actionbot, which works fine, and is evidently putting all
time he can into paying off
technological debt he's responsible for if not necessarily guilty of. nothing wrong with
this, and it can stand as such.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i have no idea what ben_vulpes is doing
these days, if anything (other
than maintaining his logotron, whatever
that
takes). i would like
to hear.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron seems lost in a bucolic paradise slash midwestern parochial nightmare of his own choosing. nothing wrong with
this either, and unless i hear any better
that will be
the conclusion.
mircea_popescu: other
than
this, mod6 is
taking
time off, since mid-november. nothing wrong with
this, but i'd like
to see some conclusions at some point.
mircea_popescu: finally, asciilifeform is working on rsa-based ssl-ism replacement (notwithstanding he ~seems
to be~ working on any and all wank on
the "side" during spare
time he doesn't have and all
that), which we want so we can finally move bitcoin off sheer cretinity and into cuntoo (and which is principally why we want sane db also, but as i said -- yet immature).
☟︎ mircea_popescu: other
than maintaining
the deedbot infrastructure,
trinque is working on cuntoo, which is a rather large piece and it
taking a [difficult
to predict] while is not by itself
the end of
the world ; but i'd like
to see some roadmapping,
tentative and subject
to change as it may be, lest
the effort degenerates.
mircea_popescu: hanbot is working on
the mp-wp
tree, and manages as she long has a rather largeish wetworks i'm not going
to get into
the details of.
mircea_popescu: so, she'll be doing client work with her own
two hands, something i had every intention
to avoid ; and we'll be looking at integrating cuntoo on
the server side later on.
there's some db work in
the hopper also, but
that's even further on
the maturity vine.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: diana_coman is working for s.mg ; we've recently had
this exact
talk and revised our plans. originally
the idea was
to have moved over
to cuntoo, and do support work for community-driven effort at a new client.
the latter completely collapsed over
the shocking weakness of such community ;
the former's at best delayed.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yet -- it is not my business ; so i'm just going
to count it as such, "working on pizarro" without further inquiry (and with
the firm expectation
that someone IS doing all
that).
diana_coman: fwiw I can't say I saw a surprise so far in any of
the april announcements; at most more of a difference of degree at
times (i.e.
the expected direction/action but
to a larger/smaller degree)
mircea_popescu: so : as far as i know, bingoBoingo is working on qntra and on pizarro. he's doing a very fine job with
the former ; i'm nonplussed with recently discovering just how broken
the latter's mp-wp offering actually was ; moreover it seems
to me from a distance pizarro's still financially and customer-wise entirely dependent, ie as close
to failure as you can possibly get without spelling it out.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: foremost,
the lordship is not a state, but an activity.
mircea_popescu: well, meanwhile it's
the 5th day of
this fine new year, and it occurs
to me it might be a good idea
to discuss some
things, lest april coming around
this year like any other year be perceived as some kind of subjective surprise, rather
than
the objective necessity it ever is.
mircea_popescu: "Python ints don't have a fixed number of\ndigits." priceless. especially for
the 000a intercalation.
a111: Logged on 2019-01-04 16:47 mircea_popescu: ie, EXACTLY
these dead horses smart people are dragging around on
their own fucking power
to sheer exhaustion.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-26 18:22 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i have a strong bias against proggies which
try
to be 'smart'
mircea_popescu: well, i got other firepits
to attend
to, but what a great logmorning
this has been!
mircea_popescu: think about it, if it converged in more
than 2^B
turns,
then you'd have a B bit number contain B+k bits of information.
mircea_popescu: did i mention i like your
treasure
trove finds a lot more
these days ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the pedantery wherein he explains how "substraction really adition because
transform and add 1" is so fucken cute... when is
this, 1920 ?
mircea_popescu: "At each subsequent stage,
the next number is
the last N plus
the last Z ; carries out of bounds are ignored ; if anything's ignored
the next number's an N, otherwise a Z. "
to
take it out of
the idiotic format.
mircea_popescu: and why
the fuck does he use ~substraction~, could have used addition instead for same exact money.
mircea_popescu: lol. right. "addition" my foot. why
the fuck do scientists misuse
terms of art. "addition over finite field"!="addition"
