mod6: i thought it was just a creative fly swatter
shinohai: Speaking of devices to eradicate vermin: http://i.4cdn.org/b/1499889865922.jpg
mod6: i love the smell of organophosphate in the morning
shinohai: I have my reasons.
asciilifeform: shinohai: i said this before, and will say again, vodka is better than reddit any day and hour of the week
asciilifeform: i saw the film
mod6: i posted the vid earlier
asciilifeform: shinohai: wat am i looking at
shinohai: I'm in the wrong fucking business.
asciilifeform: i wonder if there's a pantsuit translation
mod6: all i see is unicode
asciilifeform: phf: ty. as it happens i just finished http://militera.lib.ru/memo/russian/miheenkov_se05/index.html
phf: asciilifeform: you might find this entertaining, http://flibusta.is/b/426177/read (also nerfed version, but i didn't compare http://flibusta.is/b/352948/read)
mod6: i want google to tell me if my pw is 100% kthxbye!
phf: (how apropos, i'm about to embark on 17 moments of spring watch through with girl)
mircea_popescu: i figured it out with my functional breadbox
mircea_popescu: here, live and for the first time in the world, i give you the manuel blum & santosh vempala silicone model of brain computation : https://68.media.tumblr.com/45271fd5a728dffd2aff8ec6e37e12ab/tumblr_nnztkqVQlT1untuzto1_400.gif
asciilifeform: though i have nfi who vempala is
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i have a whole gallery of mostly females that swallowed long silicone strands "in their head"
asciilifeform: i can run x86 binary on paper, and so can whoever, it ain't interesting.
mircea_popescu: i expect i have seen 5 to 10k hours of solid tropical rain the past three months.
mod6: related to this, it had seemed to me that since i've moved back to mn, we've gotten a lot less snow than what i remember as a kid in the 80s.
mod6: i totally have.
mod6: bah. i like gas!
asciilifeform: ( sadly heathen gas syntax. currently i do not know if this can be changed to godly nasm )

ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-12#1681775 << i'm happy to configure donated hardware to be useful to the republic; if machines need a home i can arrange for that as well ☝︎
mod6: If my keyboard would zap me everytime I misspelled a word, I'd like to think that I'd refrain.
mod6: see if I can sneak one past the golie.
mod6: indeed, did fail with some resonably expected outputs from each test. i'll have to try it again with doing like 100 consecutive 1's per Mb.
mod6: so one day, i did do a test of ent with like ~1gb worth of '1's in a file just to see if the testing tool would hork.
mod6: I'm pretty sure I'm gonna like sword & axe time.
trinque: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-12#1681862 << lol, and if I squint hard enough she's as good as female! ☝︎
asciilifeform: i liked cygwin moar
shinohai: Still conveniently runs *everything* as suid 0, last time I checked.

sina: another random thing I made https://github.com/sinner-/tinykv
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-09#1681116 << AFAIK there are only three methods of handling this, either read header bytes which specify how many bytes to read, or read until a newline-type char or read a fixed number of bytes. would be interested in discussing that further if others know of better ways to handle, it's an interesting problem. I guess reading a fix number of bytes is preferable. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2017-07-05 15:50 phf: oh flag, lets you pass this stuff as a command line argument.. i guess this approach works too. i'm not sure why i can't just do message = string(dat) but i'm too lazy to figure it out
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-05#1679224 << I dunno what "dat" constitutes in this case, but you can pass in any data just by the line "M := toBinArray(*message)" and sub out *message for dat ☝︎
sina: I am imagining you shaking the guy who wrote that blog by the shoulders and screaming DO YOU in his face
sina: I have been watching the logs, interesting discussions
sina: I just popped in to complain about this thing and I feel like nobody else I know will understand
mircea_popescu: but yes, the grand plan for june was "bitcoin prices drop while ethereum to the moon". it worked as well as the "liberation" of some town of a name i meanwhile forgot it was so long.
BingoBoingo: Girls tend to get the opportunity to graduate to "tampering with motor vehicle" i.e. stealing man's car to drug faster and man staying pissed long enoug to file charges, but not long enough to press for Grand Theft Auto
mircea_popescu: i guess mostly open problem huh
trinque: hell I installed far less interesting items all over the place in high school
asciilifeform: i fully expect that most 'uci' install would be by hand.
mod6: mircea_popescu: thanks for the suggestion, I shall think on it. ☟︎
mod6: Anyway, I think this might be a bit off-topic from the original ; ``consider how to accept hardware donations''.
mod6: And I only use the word "obligation" as this is the language of the taxation outline within the DoS.
mod6: I'm not even sure that Mr. P. suggested that -- I only mentioned that as it is yet undefined weather such donation is "obligation free for the foundation". i.e. we hand back nothing in return.
mircea_popescu: no, i know.
a111: Logged on 2017-07-12 02:41 mircea_popescu: yeah, i don't have an obvious pill either. but for instance for running nodes ? what do you care if it's evil. doesn't pay to evil.
mod6: mircea_popescu: aha, i see.
trinque: as it stands I'm already the host for the trb deps.
mircea_popescu: yeah, i don't have an obvious pill either. but for instance for running nodes ? what do you care if it's evil. doesn't pay to evil. ☟︎
mod6: As far as production hardware, not sure how we could vet such an environment. But maybe I can just think on this a bit.
mod6: It could be something along the lines of how I've envisioned the foundation mirrors. someone in L1 can start their own after a discussion with either of us. could be similar maybe.
mod6: (fwiw, I have no clue how freenode does this either)
asciilifeform: ( 'but there was a protected type!' alert reader will ask. the pill is the obvious one, i will reveal it later. )
asciilifeform: mod6 et al : in other noose, i have a working experimental build with No_Implicit_Conditionals, No_Implicit_Heap_Allocations, No_Implicit_Dynamic_Code, No_Secondary_Stack, No_Exception_Propagation, No_Tasking, No_Protected_Types, No_Delay, No_Allocators, No_Dispatch restrictions. ☟︎
asciilifeform: i deliberately wrote FG for the smallest commercially available cpld that would hold vonneumann + uart
mircea_popescu: i suppose the state goes in what's a buffer.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes, as a practical matter. i was just discussing the "must have buffer" theoretical point.
shinohai: I'm in a state of temporary retirement until market conditions improve.
asciilifeform: as i understand, this doesn't test entropy
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: b, as i understand, isn't even physically possible without a buffer
asciilifeform: eventually i derived that this is equivalent to the equation seen in the 'watchdog' circuit in fg.v
asciilifeform: i.e. a lamp whose brightness is proportional to how close (bits emitted from vonneumann filter per sec) / ( bits entering same, per sec) is to 1
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i actually considered something that is arguably a variant of your test, when designing FG,
mircea_popescu: (ie, i dun have an answer for it myself, nor know how to get one.)
asciilifeform: i have nfi what 'rnd(0, 1Mb)' does
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'd like to see an expanded algo for ^
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes here's a high pay grade question for you : of the two models of "controlled de-entropy" i spawned in a week, specifically a) count of randomly placed flipped bits, as in the discussion with you re that and b) string of randomly initiated, n bit long SET bits, as discussed in http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-10#1681268 which does the bitcoin foundation regard as a better candidate for standardization as "the republic' ☝︎
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: slowlybut surely, expanding the horizon of things i understand, taking the time to make sure i understand each part.
mod6: ok neat, i just ran it against my V stuff, seems to dump out all of the symbols or whatnot
asciilifeform: so for instance i throw in pragma Restrictions (No_Exception_Propagation); and see "Constraint_Error may result in unhandled exception" and then wonder where,
mod6: damn, i wanna be on whatever deck she's on.
mod6: now that i've got that part in my head, now can tackle the rest tomorrow.
mod6: Col(i, i - L + 1, L - 1);
mod6: for i in L .. 2*L - 2 loop
mod6: i haven't gone all the way through the W_Mul yet, but just unrolling it as said.
mod6: and gleaned a few things I didn't notice earlier.
mod6: i did solve a few of my own questions so far on it.
mod6: lol, im probably just dim, but i think it's the only way im gonna understand things thing through and through
mod6: ok, my bad, i see those are the output words for W_Mul, XY_LW and XY_HI.
mod6: asciilifeform: you mind throwing me your W_Add_D, i don't seem to have one.
asciilifeform: same reason i didn't implement fft
asciilifeform: ( and -- damningly -- i can't think of why. )
a111: Logged on 2017-07-10 23:07 jurov: re: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-09#1681019 i tried and liked https://github.com/conspack/cl-conspack
mircea_popescu: and in other "i can't believe it's not butt-er", https://68.media.tumblr.com/f7dcd66710edeb9ffa4565cd0cbf3077/tumblr_omp9juCdzX1vczyw6o2_1280.jpg

a111: Logged on 2017-07-07 18:01 mircea_popescu: if they did that sort of shit, i could almost respect artists.
asciilifeform: i don't expect to see many reimplementations, sadly, however, because one of the items of said spec is 'the following ops are in constant spacetime...'
asciilifeform: upstack, ffa wants to double as a 'how to rsa' 'b00k' , i.e. at every point tradeoff was made for clarity rather than speed.
mircea_popescu: well yes, i imagined the 4kb one also composite.
asciilifeform: ( i dun know of any compelling practical reason to do this, outside of something like a hand-sewn gossipd packet filter in asm on bare iron, for max horsepower )
asciilifeform: relatedly, after adatronic 'p' is fully nailed down and flying, i'ma bake one in x64 asm.
