asciilifeform: or fish -- hook
asciilifeform: wolf never seems to stop thinking he can digest wolfsangel, also
asciilifeform: 'we can have exactly #trilema but out of aryans and to serve clitler.' aka 'servantleaderz'!11
asciilifeform: exactly. is why quoted.
asciilifeform: ( http://wiki.c2.com/?AdaLanguage )
asciilifeform: mplement a more reasonable syntax and notation while keeping the same range checks, contract checks, safety checks, stack abilities, separation of concerns (type declarations, arrays vs pointers to pointers, by reference vs by value or in/out params, modules, high level threading abilities, sub modules, packages).'
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in entomology, gem , 'Ada is arguably more successful in its domain not because of its ridiculous verbosity, but because it has higher level features, separation of concerns, safety checks, development teams focused on embedded programming, aircraft specialists and programmers working on the compilers, etc. One could still take all of these same Ada experts, brainwash them, and have them (or another team with more sense) i
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: it's also needed for any kind of serious work on bios ( incl pci cards )
asciilifeform: lol
asciilifeform: from this, flows apache etc.
asciilifeform: the fundamental disease is that c is retarded.
asciilifeform: fwiw ada's built-in sane threading and non-semaphoric thread-to-thread info passing features make it an inviting idea.
asciilifeform: prolly will end up writing own.
asciilifeform: i have not tried, could not get past the gag reflex last time
asciilifeform: certainly easier problem, algorithmically, than e.g. bignum
asciilifeform: there's nothing particularly high-tech about serving http
asciilifeform: http server ? fwiw adacore distributes one. ( i dun like it, for same reason as apache -- it's a megatonne of gnarl . but, it does in fact work, and benefits from the language guarantees etc )
asciilifeform: what exactly is 'ada apache' ?
asciilifeform: let's consider this puzzler
asciilifeform: even nao they're pretty light on the algo mechanics . ( asciilifeform does not know if there's 0 complaint from readership because everybody-grasps-anyway, or because ~nobody reads... )
asciilifeform: can be broken down into the smallest logical cuts, but not smaller.
asciilifeform: adjust material how ?
asciilifeform: oh hey iirc bogota was a runner-up in the castle-popescustein race, wasnnit.
asciilifeform: !!up mp_en_viaje
asciilifeform: oh hey hey hey lbj
asciilifeform: http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2018/01/how-to-fix-us-national-defense-doctrine.html << in other lullies.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: do they have a console on wheels, or how is the after-the-screws-tightened config usually done nowadays ?
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: didja meet the rack yet ?
asciilifeform: !~later tell ave1 http://ave1.org/2018/on-ffa-chapter-1/#comment-15 ☟︎
asciilifeform: it's ~always shannonized liquishit. ☟︎
asciilifeform: lolk
asciilifeform: phf: 'if you're reading it, it's for you!111' (tm)(r)(tlp)
asciilifeform: so for so long as this situation continues to be observed anywhere -- we have a bug.
asciilifeform: but trb nodes really oughta all be within a few blox of one another at all times.
asciilifeform: it's one thing where prb refuses to serve trb node blox, or puts out some oddball liquishit that gets it malleus'd, etc
asciilifeform: it should not be possible.
asciilifeform: thinkaboutit.
asciilifeform: mod6: let's restate the general principle. if you have two or moar trb nodes, and they are 'in communion' with one another regularly, and yet one is several 100 blox behind the other(s) -- THIS IS A BUG
asciilifeform: the ben_vulpes takes the orig fix to the logical conclusion.
asciilifeform: *in fact
asciilifeform: considering that a connection can last for theoretically unlimited time.
asciilifeform: i suspect that his approach is in fat The Right Thing. making connect-time 'special' is every bit as dumb as making boot time special.
asciilifeform: the one that actively milks every peer regularly, and not simply on-connect
asciilifeform: mod6: speaking of, didja ever try ben_vulpes's moar-aggression patch ?
asciilifeform: ohai BingoBoingo , mod6
asciilifeform: ( some of these will make sense only to orcs, e.g. https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/233577/31478297.35a/0_dece9_75feb48a_X5L.jpg << 'do not dry by the fire clothes you have washed in petrol' )
asciilifeform: https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/479589/31478297.35a/0_decf0_ff2e3f85_X5L.jpg << e.g. 'leave unexploded ordnance alone'
asciilifeform: https://fotki.yandex.ru/users/kolonist62/album/137117? << moar than you could ever want.
asciilifeform: cautioning against various 'oopses'
asciilifeform: trinque: naaah , orig -- equiv. of american osha plaquards
asciilifeform: some of these have pretty great possibilities for double-meaning, e.g. https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/9254/31478297.2d7/0_aca84_b516d1dd_XL.jpg >> 'mmm, hi-fi!11'
asciilifeform: or perhaps best of all, https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6213/31478297.28d/0_85dde_3ddcbe7e_XXXL.jpg .
asciilifeform: err, https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6312/31478297.28d/0_85de0_78b4abc5_XXXL.jpg
asciilifeform: https://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/6309/31478297.28d/0_85def_d925370_XXXL.jpg << oblig.
asciilifeform: mod6: i was rereading , looking for old item, and went 'wtf', but entirely own brain spasm
asciilifeform: ... and to stay away from heavy machinery, lol
asciilifeform read 'blocks requests' instead of 'requests blocks', prolly oughta sleep moar
asciilifeform: !~later tell mod6 or hm nm brain spasm, strike that.
asciilifeform: !~later tell mod6 http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2018-January/000285.html << i noticed, somehow only nao, that it has text 'This experimental vpatch requests blocks from all nodes that send a version message.' >> which has 0 relation to the patch...
asciilifeform: laplinker: keep in mind also that there can be no question of e.g. selling probes, to somebody not in wot.
asciilifeform: as it is, if you come back, no one knows who is speaking, 'shakespeare -- or another man by the same name', for instance.
asciilifeform: laplinker: register with deedbot; then you will be able to get ratings; and self-voice.
asciilifeform: !~ticker --market all
asciilifeform: ^ get a permanent name.
asciilifeform: !!help
asciilifeform: laplinker: consider registering with deedbot ,
asciilifeform: !!up laplinker
asciilifeform: and deserve to burn on same pyre.
asciilifeform: and the folx who know, and do not care, are http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-10#1768490 , they are as culpable as the orig author. ☝︎
asciilifeform: neither i nor anybody else with half a brain need these charts, or 'We are going to use the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test here...', or any of it, to know that 'tether' is a gox-style scam
asciilifeform: 'The author is concerned about backlash and has asked to remain pseudonymous by signing this report with a public hash of their name' << lol wai am i reading this
asciilifeform: won't buy post-2011 amd either.
asciilifeform: fwiw i will not buy any new intel product. haven't, for quite some time.
asciilifeform: at least in recent chips.
asciilifeform: given that the 'security pros' and academia circuses were permitted to make ME core a centerpiece of their self-aggrandizing idiocy, you can be quite certain that there is a fallback. multiple fallbacks.
asciilifeform: laplinker: not especially interesting, no. i'm more interested in whatever fallbacks are in there ~separately~ from ME core. nsa fritzchip never come in singles.
asciilifeform: ( on some boxes, shortly after reset, in fact )
asciilifeform: i.e. the bios can (and by default does) perma-lock the hdt port after boot
asciilifeform: btw laplinker , recent ( 2013? 14? and after..? ) amd opterons suffer from similar problem : http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-04#1552690 ☝︎
asciilifeform: and will not comment on it, it is worthless garbage .
asciilifeform: so i have 0 interest in xhci or any other inband debugging.
asciilifeform: but it so happens that these are the ONLY items i find interesting from hardware debug pov.
asciilifeform: winintel doesn't want people debugging the drm spyshitware in the bios; or the winblowz kernel. ergo xhci.
asciilifeform: sage probe is quite easy to find. 1) get in wot -- register with deedbot 2) make a bid in btc 3) one of the folx here will sell you a sageprobe.
asciilifeform: and dunwork on resetvector in bios.
asciilifeform: 0 interest to me, because victim-detectable.
asciilifeform: aa
asciilifeform: right, but where the fuck to get a xdp3.
asciilifeform: ( they were at one point sold off for pennies on the dollar )
asciilifeform: what i have iirc is a xdp1.
asciilifeform: laplinker: iirc i tried the 'free' ver, it wanted a xdp3.
asciilifeform: ( never got xdp going, because, again, requires shitware )
asciilifeform: laplinker: i have one almost exactly like it
asciilifeform: didja ever get it to boot a standard winblows, for instance ?
asciilifeform: and with random crashes.
asciilifeform: iirc 'minnow' is a junk board, with nonexpandable ram, etc
asciilifeform: considering that half the point of hardware debugger is to debug heavily-antidebuggistic shitware... ☟︎
asciilifeform: and at any rate change behaviour when it senses that debug is active
asciilifeform: i.e. the 'victim' can disable the port
asciilifeform: laplinker: the problem is that the usb3 debug is NOT os-transparent
