thought 25 was prime

today
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 22:24 bvt: lobbes: i am also interested in learning which gnat version/type and vtools leaf was used, and seeing strace output; i
thought
this error can happen only on adacore gnat >=2017 with a strict libc (which rejects 3-character
template)
spyked: next step will be
to get
this + some of
the code it depends on (namely, xml+rss parsers) published.
spyked: all done. all feeds should be now delivered from
the feedbot end. if someone doesn't get
theirs delivered, pl0x
to poke me.
trinque: spyked: stopped
the service on my end
spyked: trinque, done. standing by
to launch bot, on your signal.

the
thing in formaldehyde, for if anyone ever walks in bukovsky
to link..

the spam
trap a little bit
a111: Logged on 2018-12-04 17:25 asciilifeform: and so happens
that i've dug up
the src for
the supporting proggy
that
talked
to it, 5 or so yrs ago
lobbesbot: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-11 00:14 asciilifeform: phf, incidentally, do you know
that i blew MONTHS, if you add it up, possibly most of a year of life, sawing open 'snap4' genera in ida ?
a111: Logged on 2018-11-28 16:26 phf: asciilifeform: before you agree
to a decap, give me some more
time
to get you
the docs, maybe
they'll be enough
to get
things going. i'd hate
to lose an ivory
to get some pretty but useless pictures, i'd rather it fry on a breadboard in
the process of directed discovery
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 16:48 asciilifeform: !Q later
tell phf loox like dks is selling another! 'ivory' on lulzbay >>

to a retarded girlfriend
trying
to flood your apartment,
that not only opens all
the faucets and stops all
the drains, but also
takes
the "extremely clever" measure of puncturing
the water pipes, so she can
then preciously inform you
that "turning off
the faucets won't help" and you must work with her
to somehow create a raft out of your widescreen
TV so as

the marshy

the fact
that it feels
to noobs like 'unnatural acrobatics' is an artifact of writer suddenly having
to pay
that actual cost of
the complexity inflicted on reader. and yes folx whined, just like in ex-ussr folx whined when
they started having
to pay for mains current .
a111: Logged on 2018-09-18 18:22 asciilifeform:
this is
the other
thing, 'changes are expensive' promote imho a sane view of software, where you actually
try
to perma-stabilize yer proggy, rather
than
to keep up
the classic 'open sores' eternal cauldron of bubbling liquishit

Mocky: hell no, 25yo boy has a donkey in his head
that won't stop kicking
Mocky: enjoy it, 35 is a man's prime. I ought
to know, I'm in my second decade of being 35!
Mocky: also i still need
to finish baking
these last 7 Qatar blog posts I wrote up
Mocky: damn, 3 days actually. I
think I lost a day somewhere
Mocky: I feel lost
tho, 2 days behind in
the logs, no idea what's going on :D
Mocky: Expecting
to get phone interviews with labcorp and lexis nexis scheduled soon, along with a bunch of unknowns
Mocky: It's coming along, I'm
toughening up. I have a couple dozen new recruiter emails
this morning and I only want vodka before I start answering and not hollow point so progress!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, i'm not arguing correctness, i'm arguing environment fitness. much like "man is
the ~only~ biology success". not intended
to mean man's a defensible design.
a111: Logged on 2017-02-19 03:54 asciilifeform: (iirc we had a
thread where i described how corporate ameritards, if given a problem like phuctor, would happily soak up a few $mil and megawatt of iron)
mircea_popescu: all other "technology" wank, from wikipedia
to social media
to what have you, "anti-nonfree-internet civil society movement" rests on it and naught else.
mircea_popescu: lamp was, in strict historical
terms,
the ~only~ linux success.
mircea_popescu: it's also possible
that we simply end up gutting ye olde lamp stack, replacing
the dna and keeping
the capsid.
mircea_popescu: it's not exactly clear
to me yet what
the situation is. it's altogether possible postgres may be rescuable
through a process similar
to how "peculiar linux candidate packaging sterilized into cuntoo".
☟︎ a111: Logged on 2018-12-04 06:56 mircea_popescu: so no,
there's no such
thing as "i want mysql and he wants postgres" possible,
there has
to be an "use
this db system for
these reasons" much further upstream.
mircea_popescu: o shit, it's not him, it's me, is it.
this is one of
those reverse auctions, it makes sense for lb
to go under o, it's not javascriptmaths.
mircea_popescu: lobbes : "<auctionbot> B#1009 O=500mn LB=499.99mn E=2018-12-07 06:34:14.465343 (78h34) >>> 2k wFF <auctionbot> --- end of auction list, 499.99mn
total bids ---" << wtf did you do!
a111: Logged on 2014-11-06 01:48 asciilifeform:
there's also a school of
thought where 'notation is worth 80 iq points' and roman numerals are deservingly gone from mathematics
a111: Logged on 2018-12-04 00:58 asciilifeform: i dun expect
these will ever be OCR'd, hand-typesetted-cum-diagrams newtonola is possibly a bridge
too far for ocr.
mircea_popescu: not avoidable
task anyway, we're stuck pretty much writing a fs anyway, eventually. however,
the former is how we build
to
the latter, so.
mircea_popescu: even
though, of course, alf will just want
to bake own db.
mircea_popescu: i suspect some work on
trying mp-wp in a postgres environment would be quite beneficial at
this juncture, even.
a111: Logged on 2018-10-13 03:25 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i used a 'trigraph' index,
they're O(~n log n) , if yer interested.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-15 02:09 BingoBoingo: On
the plus size, I did learn
that using MyISAM instead of Innodb actual RAM available on
the Rockchip for not MySQL
mircea_popescu: that said, yes
there's evidently a mysql-vs-postrgres holy war in
the brewing here. but i don't
think
that boil's baked enough for lancing just yet.
mircea_popescu: d minds
that produce
the sort of crap one finds on github, indeed github's
the necessary manner and only way.)
mircea_popescu: (if at every node
there's multiple
tree splits, "here's logbot with mysql, here's logbot with postgres, here's logbot with flatfile,
then
there's ircbot with mysql, ircbot with..." and so on,

☟︎ mircea_popescu: this doesn't jive with
the current situation,
true, but it's in
the sense of "healthy domestic relationships do not jive with usg.familycourt nonsense" / "good health dun work with cancer cells present" and so on.
mircea_popescu: so no,
there's no such
thing as "i want mysql and he wants postgres" possible,
there has
to be an "use
this db system for
these reasons" much further upstream.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: frankly stated
this is patent idiocy,
the decision of whether eg driving on right or on left can not possibly come AFTER one has decided whether
they want
to go out
to pub or disco.
mircea_popescu: back when people abbreviated because literally lacked
the ink and paper
