phf: asciilifeform: i don't
think so either, but it's a question of what's
the format of vpatch. if
the a/foo b/foo is mandatory or if you e.g. can have v2/foo v3/foo. right now
the answer is "don't do it
that way", which is fine, but it's cheap
to
talk
through
that stuff.
phf: and
then vdiff v1 will give you a/foo b/foo genesis
phf: asciilifeform: right,
that's possibly something
to make mandatory
then,
that is a diff of any
two directories produces a a/... b/... patch. so
that you can have v1/foo v2/foo v3/foo and vdiff v2 v3 produces a/foo b/foo
phf: err vdiff foo where inside foo you have multiple folders. it's
tied
to whether or not
those parent folders a and b should be implicit, and if vdiff should do
the right
thing in
that case, or keep it all explicit and require
the creation of a and b
top level folders always.
phf: but
to your point specifically, i was
thinking
that if you provide only one argument, right now vdiff errors out, so i
think it would be better if it produced genesis. e.g. vdiff foo could produce a a/foo/* false b/foo/* 123 vpatch
phf: vpatch is picky about what it accepts, it's basically only a/foo/* b/foo/*, where's vdiff can accept a
totally random stuff like /foo/bar/qux diffed against /dev/null or whatever. right now even diffing
two straight files e.g. vdiff x y will produce a non-pressable vpatch.
this is all not so much a bug as an unexplored aspect of vdiffing which is also part of
the whole rename
tracking.
☟︎ phf: as far as
the other idea re empty dir for genesis, i'll play with it.
there are some non-v legacy corner cases right now
that i should fix anyway when it comes
to different kinds of diffed arguments
phf: unless
there are objections from others i'll add it
to backlog
☟︎ phf: trinque:
that's a valid idea re status code, semantics have changed
spyked: also nb, drakma has no equivalent for curl's --max-time, so I had
to cook something up
the first
time I noticed
this issue. sometimes connections don't fail, but
they clog
the pipeline by keeping
the client waiting.
spyked: hey diana_coman,
ty for
testing! yeah, it's a bit slow because it grabs
the feeds serially, I'll have
to fix
that.
diana_coman: it apparently
took feedbot 2 minutes
though
to spill a first bunch of
the comments after
the subscribe, lol
spyked: of course,
this will disable notification via pm as well, so if
there's any way you want me
to handle
this (e.g. mass-adding existing pm notifications) lemme know
spyked: notification for current republican feeds has already been added for #trilema, so you can disable
the rss piece in deedbot,
trinque
☟︎ spyked: ^ likbez on how
to use.
to subscribe feeds for pm, pm feedbot,
to subscribe for #trilema send command in-channel.
spyked: and
there's a long backlog of lines
that I need
to answer, will come with schedule for
those and other work
this week.
spyked: anyway,
this is no excuse for my long silence, so: I'ma bring rss bot here in
the following hour (it's been under heavy
testing for
the last month, so it should at least be a decent replacement for current deedbot rss functionality) and keccak+manifest ircbot
tree should be out by
the 1st of december
spyked back from
the bottomless
tar pits of meat, preparing status report
mircea_popescu: i wonder, (sitting all day derping about nonsense) and (begging for a
tenner) could possibly be related in any manner ?
BingoBoingo: Eh, all he is alleged
to have done is housekeeping
BingoBoingo: Also,
to put on
the recruiting calendar... July 2020 Hans Reiser first becomes eligible for parole
trinque: asciilifeform: cuntoo bootstrapper produces
the same genesis.vpatch repeatedly, runs without network (so we can be certain all deps have been captured). Running once more with ^ and
that oughta be
that. I'll post
the poast
tomorrow so it doesn't sound like
the
tired pile of notebook scribblings it currently does.
trinque holds his nose and appends a ||
true
trinque: do/don't differ is known by whether
there's output
trinque: seems kinda screwy
that vdiff exits nonzero when
the parameters differ. I know
this is classical diff behavior, but eh. I'd expect
that
to mean "wasn't able
to perform diff"
BingoBoingo: In anthro lulz an Elliot who decided
to cope by marrying Jesus got killed by natives on an Island nominally part of India and nobody has any idea how
to collect
the cadaver
lobbesbot: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.
trinque: is
there some cleaner way of having vdiff produce a genesis
than having an empty directory laying around with which
to vdiff?
BingoBoingo: Aite, I'll make sure
to apply
the Johnson oil liberally
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: It's a certain porn shoot you requested a couple weeks back for
today
lobbesbot: BingoBoingo:
The operation succeeded.
lobbesbot: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.
trinque: yep, look at my recent vps lulz re: "oh hypervisor was misconfigured".
thin hosting on real hardware is a market, whether derps know it yet or not.
tell 'em.
BingoBoingo: Another
thing
that seems
to have been
tabled which I am finding more interesting after my blog disaster is an adult Rockchip plant. Especially now
that MP-WP appears
to be less of a
threat
to exhaust RAM after
tweaking 1 MYSQL knob.
BingoBoingo: Incentivizing selling is definitely been a
thing we haven't succeeded much with so far and could be ripe.
trinque: BingoBoingo: could also incentivize
them
to do
their own selling, "get a month free when you invite" kind of
thing
trinque: I'll say for
the record
that while I've been quite
the loud activist customer, it's precisely because I'm
thrilled with
the level of service, and want
to see
the
thing
thrive.
BingoBoingo: trinque: Quite of few new arrivals are already subscribed, but
this is a point
trinque: could very well be
that plenty hadn't had - you know -
the
thought, man.
trinque: BingoBoingo: might I suggest contacting some of
the n00bs directly, here, and asking
them what would make
them a pizarro customer
billymg: ah, makes sense,
thank you
mircea_popescu: basically, conditions
that in maramures produced a wood civilisation are producing a metal civilisation among
these gypsies -- salt-of-the-earth man's ideal
toy is soldering kit.
a111: Logged on 2014-09-10 15:02 mircea_popescu: well yeah. was a bunch o people,
they got building permit and proceeded
to built like at home. concrete pillars, brick walls etc.
mircea_popescu: moreover, earthquakes are frequent,
the
terrain very uneven and
the need for insulation nil -- heavy masonry building like my culture favours (
http://btcbase.org/log/2014-09-10#824588 ) provides great insulation and significant earthquake vulnerability but requires flat
terrain -- a
terrible fit for
the actual situation.
☝︎ mircea_popescu: there's some merits
to
this, considering square foot of floor space is cheaper here
than anywhere else, and by a degree of magnitude (unless, of course, one buys into
the miami idiocy --
then it's a good 50% more expensive).
mircea_popescu: also,
there are no cities here.
the local's notion of building strictly meets barn criteria,
they
throw up some sheet metal atop soldered metal pikes and call it done.
the only city is san jose, and it's a sorry sort of akron, at
that.
mircea_popescu: and yes, it's remote and so supply-inconvenient, for all sorts of
things.
mircea_popescu: i mean, i watched
the lava flow at night from my bed. living on
the side of an active volcano doesn't strike me as "humanity's best moment" material.
mircea_popescu: i don't know
that i'd move
there ; but it's certainly a pleasant
two day
trip.
billymg: with
the goal of being able
to arrange my life in such a way
that provides more
time for actual work
billymg: at
this point i
think it's either
that or
texas for me (as a
temp solution)
billymg: unrelated, mircea_popescu: what do you
think of
the lake arenal region? i visited once and was playing around with
the idea of even moving
there
billymg: yeah, and not surprising considering
they update
the "spec" every coupla months
billymg: which is quite disappointing for me, i was excited at
the prospect of a line of my css making it into
trilema! :D
billymg: but i see your point, if it doesn't render properly on a republican box
then it doesn't render properly
billymg: it was rendering fine on archive.is for me
too, since
they just snapshot
the html/css (and i inspected
to see
that it had
the styled `<span>` in
there)
billymg: but
that could just mean
the property, and not all values for
the property
billymg: it apparently is supposed
to be supported as of firefox 15
mircea_popescu: ima put
this in
the log, as a
testament
to just how indescribably retarded html is :
mircea_popescu: again,
the desire behaviour is 5-5-6-FRAGMENT OF 3
then on next line remainder of 14. NOT!!!! 5-5-6-whitespace
then on next line WHOLE 17.
billymg: hey, looks good on my end (in
that post) -- previously
the `<br>` was breaking it a bit
too soon and leaving some whitespace at
the end of
the line, before printing
the remainder on
the next line
