asciilifeform: 'AVERTISEMENT. just published. methodus incrementorum directa & inverta, auctore Brook Taylor, L.D.D., & R. S. Seer' << notbad
mircea_popescu: well it's not a scan worth the mention. but they are far from uncommon, most (serious) uni libraries should have really.

a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 21:37 asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-03#1878039 << pretty interesting, plox to post if you end up remembering where saw this orig
asciilifeform: ( there is also phf's www-displaying one, but that one isn't a system proggy or published as such )
asciilifeform: afaik there are currently 3 working ( i.e. with keccak format ) vtrons , v.py ( as patched by phf ) , v.pl ( patched by diana_coman ) and esthlos
mircea_popescu: ah right you are, his was a product of "ima try to reimplement to understand this".
asciilifeform: then , iirc, punkman ( now-defunkt greek d00d ) wrote one ; then ben_vulpes
mircea_popescu: yeah, wasn't mod6 's perl thing even earlier ?
a111: Logged on 2018-08-21 18:28 asciilifeform: all i particularly care for in re scripting is to obtain a replacement for perl/python/bash where the interpreter is simple (i.e. readable, fits-in-head, auditable, correct)
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-04#1878160 << will be great once we have that scripting lang ( http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-21#1843516 ) so we can throw out pythons, perls, etc ☝︎☝︎
asciilifeform: i had naively installed 'archlinux' on it, and as result found out for 1st time what systemd was.
asciilifeform: ( to enlinuxize, had to open it and put crocodiles on the eeprom . but iron was flaky, thing sometimes would wake from sleepmode with x11 mutilated , etc )
asciilifeform: samsung thingie, weighs 400g or so
asciilifeform: that thing is holding down a stack of papers somewhere in torture room
mircea_popescu: lmao. yeah, i recall this somehow.
asciilifeform: ( thought 'what comp to take that i dun mind border idjiots stealing' )
asciilifeform: tho i was able to get a kinda linux on it, it actually went with me to mircea_popescu's c2 as travel comp
asciilifeform: broke teeth.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 19:31 asciilifeform: spyked: it's the 1st one most folx used, given as it was the first vtron
asciilifeform: ( then found ~other~ boobies inside.. )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: my whole orig impetus for 'cure bootloader' was that nonsense
mircea_popescu: is it supposed to be a computer or a boobytrap.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 19:28 asciilifeform: i find this intolerable on any box used for anything serious whatsoever, so my c101pa is presently gathering dust
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 17:21 BingoBoingo: And the datacenter just sent the statement of account showing receipt of the wires
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-03#1878002 << o hallelujah! well so then great, ty Mocky_ & everyone involved, pizarro sitting pretty for once! ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 17:13 asciilifeform: ( loox like it's 1 of those 'haha, he thinks he has courage, let him sit in gulag! see how much courage then!' sorta flames )
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-03#1877995 << it's absurdist, not even clear there's actual structure underneath the form (in the sense of "haha, you thought was structured ? idiot! kek") ☝︎
asciilifeform wishes a speedy return to health to hanbot
mircea_popescu: anyway, for citizens interested in more serious work : i shall prolly delay report making for a few days, because well, this month started with apendicitis hanbot, and i'm not going to force the very pleasant locals to set up their er/surgery hotel with my complicated red boxes.
mircea_popescu: the encounters of intelligent people always have this mocky flavour, "fuck me, i was sitting here looking for a bitcoin game now it seems i'm going to qatar ?! these people ask the wrong fucking questions!"
asciilifeform also did not always have theorem to prove
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform period mp had exactly 0 theorems to prove.
mircea_popescu: yet i am convinced you can play 2d games until the end of creation not unearth me another chet.
mircea_popescu: for what it's worth, chet & i ran into each other on meanwhile-defunct 2d game /me briefly played while being hidden away in a bunker many years ago, to not go entirely fucking mad.
mircea_popescu: right ? suppose you found your wife through chain of events thereby started. shall i ask you %q's about wife-finding now ?
asciilifeform: ( extermination dun usually require ~speaking~ to the roaches )
asciilifeform: yrs ago when asciilifeform earned bread as a sort of spammer exterminator, also usually engaged manually for own amusement, rather than to any particular other end
mircea_popescu: ie this conflates two rather different interests.
mircea_popescu: usually i write to mock/amuse self not to select/instruct, tho.
asciilifeform: notbad, if 1 in 15 that actually take manual input, end up turning into nicoleci
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, think -- spam trap WITH LIVE IDIOT on other end. did you never feel like "hey, are you stupid ?" @those doods ?
asciilifeform: heh, it's prolly moar interesting that e.g. server lint trap contents, yea
mircea_popescu: but anyway, i usually read the extreme scores, if doing nothing in particular. not exactly a waste of time, the shit that gets dredged up...
asciilifeform: about what % reach the stage where mircea_popescu bothers with keyboard input ?
mircea_popescu: the current estimate is about ~1 ppm, give or take 65%. which i'm sure she'll love to read in the log. howdy slut!
asciilifeform: just how many tonnes of sea water per kg of U
a111: Logged on 2017-05-22 15:29 mircea_popescu: collarme.com was the original ; entitled wifey tried to run off with domain name / blackmail hubby. lengthy "awareness raising" fembs. dude ignored her thoroughly, reg'd new name, six weeks later she's entirely forgotten.
asciilifeform: these yes ( iirc even their actual eliza proggy leaked )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform there's 1 with more, not fewer ; then there's the 100% bot items, like http://qntra.net/2016/12/ashley-madison-settles-again/
asciilifeform: or is there really just that 1
mircea_popescu: "This despicable targeting of our brave service members will never be tolerated," said Director Andrew Traver << top keks, check it out, "it's not child porn NAO!!!"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: didja ever rule out hypothesis that there's a diff heathen pit where moar % actual people and fewer % elizas ?
mircea_popescu: as a very basic intro level (like "atom is cake with electron raisins in it"), they have a 60% rule, where the response wordcount will be on a curve centered on ~60% of input. yes sometimes will answer 120% or like in the rare case quoted yest, perturber in excited state, 600%. nevertheless, if you sum over the millions...
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it doesn't work, because believe this wonder! they have built-in de-engager (they follow complex rules as to the volume of comms, that look oddly reminiscent of "why fusion won't go")
asciilifeform: i had nfi how to parse 'just message it'
mircea_popescu: (you understand, what she ~actually means~ is that i should send her whatever test i want her to take, ~in the form her Divine Mother taught her to test-take~.)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ever try bot that picks 2 derps and sets'em against 1 another ?
mircea_popescu: utterly not true.
mircea_popescu: this is the point im making. before fetlife lulz, i thought as you do, "eliza a+ idiot emulator"
asciilifeform: the 'people' are very similar parrots tho.
mircea_popescu: it's terrible.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if you're going to pattern-match this closely your "eliza" will be ~alphabet sized. 1tb phonebook not really "artificial" in any sense, merely parrotlicious.
asciilifeform: just set the knobs.
asciilifeform: 'if you want to find out my $keyword just message it'
mircea_popescu: this sort of procedure creates high poetry, to be remembered over the millenia. if, of course, in the hands of humans as opposed to whatever-us-got.
asciilifeform: there's, what, 5 or 6 things they emit ( incl. the 'i have a dom' , 'i am a dom', etc claptrap )
mircea_popescu: eliza will come up with the idea of "messaging her intelligence" ? ie, enact it as a distinct-disembodied-totem of herself ?
asciilifeform: wainot ? just seed the eliza with buncha variants of same garbage 'ugh i can't see what's in the msg box' and yer golden
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can't conceive how this'd be mechanized.
a111: Logged on 2018-11-20 17:38 asciilifeform: PARRY: You should pay more attention. ELIZA: Suppose you should pay more attention. PARRY: You're entitled to your own opinion. ELIZA:What makes you think I am entitled to my own opinion? ..
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: that or http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-20#1873867 ☝︎
mircea_popescu: this whole fetlife thing has firmly convinced me i'd have been deeply unequipped to convincingly write a millenial before. one really needs to experience the unleashed stupid to be able to conceptualize just what garbage these shitstacks are.
mircea_popescu: how can one even come up with this shit ?
mircea_popescu: LordMPofTMSR 38M Master 3h "Think of it as an intelligence test. That you're failing." Violet13s 21F sub 3h 'Well whatever you said in the subject box I can't see so I have no idea what " intelligence test " your trying to have me show you. So I'm not really failing, if you want to find out my intelligence you should just message it.' ☟︎
mircea_popescu: jesus christ these #mootoo's.
lobbes off to meat
a111: Logged on 2018-09-17 22:22 trinque: wot rating lookup isn't heavy at all, sounds like a plan.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 19:50 spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-03#1877986 <-- cheers! /me is looking forward to that (then adding http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-14#1862345 to logbot shouldn't be very difficult)
lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-03#1878032 << I actually ended up getting a logbot_command_router-based self-voicing thing working (auctionbot uses it), but it uses the interface-with-gpg method instead of the stash-of-OTP method, and considering we may be moving to a new voice model anyways I did not publish (http://btcbase.org/log/2018-09-17#1851087) ☝︎☝︎☟︎
lobbes: anyways, I'm try this later on a sane os, and with a gnat < 2017 (will also re-read some of the recent gnat threads).
lobbes: seems borked there as well
lobbes: btv: I wonder if just my strace is borked. here's the trace from vpatch < patches/eucrypt_genesis.vpatch >> http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/GU1GJ/?raw=true
spyked switches off for the night
bvt: howeve i see that you are stracing a vk.pl, not vpatch itself. tracing vk.pl would give too much information, it would help to see only strace -f vpatch < patches/eucrypt_genesis.vpatch
asciilifeform: lobbes: that doesn't look like a strace output
lobbes is soon going to grab a spare lappy so as to test out cuntoo and finally have a sane os with e.g. ave1's gnat, etc.
lobbes: at this point I'm thinking I may just retry this on, say, the rockchip. I dun want to burn republican hours on what just may be debian/shitgnome strange.
a111: Logged on 2018-12-03 21:39 asciilifeform: ( does it ever create the file at that path ? if so, failed ? etc )
lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-12-03#1878051 << does not create the file, but creates the directories ☝︎
lobbes: however I'm not sure even -strace- is working (or perhaps I'm just doing it wrong). for e.g. here's an strace of just "./vk.pl". It just hangs and gives nothing else (same as if I strace the press or just strace "cat /dev/null") >> http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/QN42P/?raw=true
lobbes: diana_coman, bvt: this was indeed a newer adacore (from May 2018) https://www.adacore.com/download. I'm going to look into the tempfile thread alf mentioned. may very well be the same issue
trinque: sorry about that, got dragged into something in meatspace meanwhile.
trinque: spyked: lets do that, sounds good.
spyked: hey trinque, you still on for changing rss bots? I should be around for another 30 minutes or so. depending on the number of feeds/subscribers, it may take me a while to check/add everything, so we could do this in two steps: you send me the subscriptions (pm, #trilema and everything else) tonight whenever you can, and then I'll add them tomorrow and fire up feedbot whenever you're available to turn off deedbot rss
