erlehmann: one point is that incorporating something in unicode does not increase processing complexity by any means. i actually installed a new version of unifont on an old phone and instantly it could display all the new characters.

asciilifeform: if i start writing english as strings of 16-bit indices into the oxford dictionary, people will laugh. ☟︎☟︎

erlehmann: asciilifeform i strongly suspect you do not distinguish between complexity and sheer numbers. i saw bloat always as referring to needless complexity, size of something only as evidence, not as bloat itself.

asciilifeform: though i definitely see the strength of his argument, that people who use more glyphs than there are keys on keyboard, have severe problem, and their place is by the cultural latrine, and not bloating the os for civilized folx

erlehmann: also, for everyday communication i find E1, E2, E3, E4 etc. much better than trying to pass around bitmaps

erlehmann: asciilifeform the sole purpose of unicode is to replace all other glyph standards. from that follows all else, i.e. incorporation of wingdings, emoji, etc.

a111: Logged on 2017-07-15 05:13 erlehmann: i use GNU unifont wherever i can. fits in head.

trinque: asciilifeform, I put my life savings into bitcoin at $3k, please help

asciilifeform: ( where we do as i said, incrementing the T , using i for nothing but loop )

asciilifeform: there's no type rape, because you don't use i for anything but to do the thing i times

asciilifeform: O can start at 1, and get incremented (with FZ_Add) I times ( for i ..... loop)

mod6: i dunno, just the strict types thing.

mod6: ooh. for some reason, i didn't think that it could?

mod6: you want me to post my code before I run this again?

mod6: 1.326 + log(65536)/2*log(2) + (log(65536)/log(2) - 1.443)*65536 << during this exercise, i started, very quickly to see this expansion pattern. was thinking there must be some square law to predict the probable size of the outcome.

mod6: i'd rather have something sane to read at the end of the journey.

a111: Logged on 2017-07-15 07:18 mod6: this 65536 one is gonna run for a while i think...

asciilifeform: i quite deliberately did not put this in. who wants, can put in at his own peril.

asciilifeform: i kinda like it how it was : short, sweet, portable to whatever, apple2.

asciilifeform: ( it is possible also to get 3x speed boost , on machines with 3 or moar cpu cores, on top of all, by allowing tasking ; this adds 12 or so lines. but i'd rather not , it subtracts from msdosificatability )

asciilifeform: i am considering including a karatsuba squaring case - for 2x speed boost; but that's definitely it.

sina: anyway I just wanted to test and make sure all of my things were working post upgrade

sina: I just upgraded to Fedora 26 :)

mod6: alright, i better catch some zzzs. i'll check in on the factorial here when I wake up.

mod6: pretty ave. i'd hit it.

mod6: i must have missed somethin

mircea_popescu: ah, i meant the painting.

mod6: i agree about how Laura was written, pretty plain and dull.

mod6: I liked your comments about byron. That was the first i've read of him.

mod6: i bumped it up to 32768

mod6: alright, i restarted mine.

mod6: this 65536 one is gonna run for a while i think... ☟︎

mircea_popescu: oh i crashed it doh

mod6: no worries! here's what i'm getting with simple `time`ings: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/ucLj9/?raw=true

mod6: we're getting some pretty different answers actually. for 15!, i'm getting (in hex):

mircea_popescu: or i'm sorry, "nutritionally balanced diets" and "science".

erlehmann: i must so the cool guy has not reached maximum snowflake

erlehmann: i must admit that cheered me up a bit, even though i knew how it would turn out halfway through :)

erlehmann: mircea_popescu in the past i wondered how people who ask that question never consider someone else might think themselves such an exceptional snowflake.

erlehmann: oh, but then i looked for it and there exist several

erlehmann: i remember a post from “the old new thing” about “why can't we have a method to have our window on top of all others?”

erlehmann: if i recall correctly, windows has font handling at an entirely wrong abstraction level (think TTF kernel exploit)

mircea_popescu: erlehmann anyway, it was something about how random windoze userland used arbitrary font for form making or i don't recall, some management function anyway.

a111: Logged on 2016-11-18 21:29 mircea_popescu: "i'll believe it when i see it with big font in rounded corners."

erlehmann: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-18#1570036 << i almost smiled ☝︎

erlehmann: i use GNU unifont wherever i can. fits in head. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: in fact, ~every one i've seen played soccer on the monitors. except for the one that had VERY BAD porn. i mean terribly bad.

mircea_popescu: in other lulz : i took girl to strip joint crawl today. highlight of the night, this plastered drunk waitress / whore that wouldn't take 3k for a 2k tab. literally, she gave it back to me, evidently i made a mistake.

erlehmann: i might want to figure out the UTF-16 LE issue before that. of course, i can do my injection in UTF-16 LE, but i want to know where it comes from.

erlehmann: don't worry, i'll do the “if you use chrome, wine and gnome, visiting random websites might yield vbscript” writeup sometime soon. it's too hilarious.

mircea_popescu: unless, of course, he's wiring it to some radical group. though i vaguely don't expect western union would "allow" that.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-14#1683901 << i suspect the 40yo might have been actually getting more for his money. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2017-07-14 22:05 BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> of course for maximal artsy i'd make your gliders asymmetrical. give it some nutty spin. << Maple seeds!

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-15#1683904 << try using machine without poettering on it. i recommend. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2017-07-14 16:57 trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-14#1683508 << I'll start chopping things down and aim for it, yes.

shinohai: I like teh simplicity

erlehmann: i understand completely, i wrote an IRC client myself once.

trinque: I admit I went as far into IRC as to make the thing stay connected, and otherwise didn't want IRC that far into my head

trinque: ah, I figured this was something I didn't implement.

phf: erlehmann: i think it's maybe your client that's misinterpreting the result

erlehmann: meanwhile, i'll do a writeup

erlehmann: i don't even know deedbot's given name!

erlehmann: i should probably do a writeup of the vbscript thing, it's too funny

erlehmann: trinque i sometimes write on http://news.dieweltistgarnichtso.net/posts/index.html

trinque: erlehmann: got a blog? I'd read.

erlehmann: in one, i found the exact same vulnerability

lobbes: On several occasions I witnessed same 40ish y/o dude cash his check (roughly $200), buy 10 $20 scratch tickets, scratch them on-the-spot, then 're-invest' any winnings until he reached $0.

lobbes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-13#1682208 << when I was a teen-lobbes I worked the service desk at a grocery store. In addition to selling lotto/scratch tickets I also handed out (and, if requested, cashed) the paychex to fellow coworkers. ☝︎

mod6: i refactored my factorial code by getting rid of an FZ_Set that i didn't need

BingoBoingo: "E drept ca intr-o prima faza am lasat-o sa creasca in legea ei, mai ales pentru ca ocupantii anteriori fura cam nepriceputi la doxa, si taiara iarba dupa metoda de-i zice-n englezeste scalping (adica foarte jos si foarte scurt), pina mi-or umplut curtea de gauri." << This is very common mistake because idiots think "golf course and sports field are shot" and assume shorter is better. They fail to consider that there are different kinds

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> that's the problem with me, i'm seldom actually doing what i'm say i'm doing. << OMG spoiler alert!!! That's supposed to take time to figure out.

BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> of course for maximal artsy i'd make your gliders asymmetrical. give it some nutty spin. << Maple seeds! ☟︎

mod6: okiedokie, i get the same thing.

mod6: i guess online tools say that's correct. neat.

mircea_popescu: it's all political i tell you!

phf: asciilifeform: i used to try and clarify the inflection, but then realized that it's mostly meaningless for the anglophones. so however much it grates, ☟︎

mircea_popescu: i thought rag is tryapka

mircea_popescu: i don't mean, it exists a little. i mean it exists like sevastopol.

mircea_popescu: aand in other wtf, i just ran into an unexpected wall.

mircea_popescu: i need a divine oracle already.

mircea_popescu: of course now i can't find the whole classification. do you recall where it sez there's two types, the type that prices her cunt to work and the type that prices it to not work ?

mircea_popescu: i dun think it ever was in english

mircea_popescu: i got errything!

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and since i'm doing ancient trilemas, here : http://trilema.com/2011/marea-afacere-cu-tuns-iarba/ re lawn mowing!

andreicon: i came here to learn

andreicon: but i'm not living with the impression that i know too much

andreicon: i know why i may be under a microscope

andreicon: i'm actually trying not to defend myself too much

andreicon: i actually don't know how to react :))

andreicon: i'm baffled

andreicon: i'm essentially putting a trapdoor in my door

andreicon: i'm only observing my surroundings

a111: Logged on 2017-07-14 18:27 andreicon: i've coded a bot in js that would voice me when i ask it

andreicon: okay, i don't know the formal definition

andreicon: i do agree, they have an accelerated pace

andreicon: yea, i'm a skiddie

andreicon: i'm not willing to be a public face for that

mircea_popescu: andreicon yet consider : when the pantsuited hilarity was aiming to somehow establish herself as actually real and existent as opposed to merely imaginary fiction (in the face of trump's onslaught) her argument was ... "i was in the situation room!!!". she was saying, basically, that while she formally appears a redditard like any other, let them not forget that nevertheless she has... priviledged access to... special technol

andreicon: i mean sha256 and ripemd160 were already available, just hacked into doing something else
