asciilifeform: but rather confiscation of the whole shebang from the wreckers. ☟︎

asciilifeform: the solution is absolutely never 'hey which flycheck turd should i use nao'

asciilifeform: 'why are you still using that obsolete...'

asciilifeform: same thing is being done to, e.g., gcc

asciilifeform: and then worked into the docs, 'flymake is obsolete' nonsense

asciilifeform: worthless piece of shit, 'used by no one' until they broke functionality (on crapple) of the venerable and eternal 'flymake'

asciilifeform: ^ typical example

asciilifeform: !#s flycheck

asciilifeform: recall the old thread,

asciilifeform: but this is why they lichen-attack and eat away at the working stuff

asciilifeform: mega-unsurprise

asciilifeform: aaa

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: what's in there ? openssl ?

asciilifeform: if i want c, i'll write in c.

asciilifeform: plain and simple wreckers, with no asterisks.

asciilifeform: i'll disagree with the 'nothing wrong'.

asciilifeform: the 'it's ok for your sbcl world to segfault' people

asciilifeform: 'sacrificing design'

asciilifeform: but instead a rerun of the august item ☟︎

asciilifeform: 'Anyone who held Bitcoin at the time Bitcoin Cash Plus was created became owners of Bitcoin Cash Plus. This means that Bitcoin holders as of block 501407 ' << apparently, contrary to appearances, is NOT a fork of bch

asciilifeform: 'Emergency Difficulty Adjustment' << lel

asciilifeform: 'The authorities declare that the sudden increase in the prices of provisions and vegetables is totally unwarranted. ... It was officially asserted that there was no reason for apprehension with regard to the food supply, and that it was needless for citizens to start the accumulation of stores of provisions. The only effect of such procedure, it was added, would be to still further raise prices.' etc

asciilifeform: http://trilema.com/2014/on-july-29-1914

asciilifeform: also gotta wonder what is , e.g., bar of soap in $ there

asciilifeform: 'The price of the cryptocurrency in the Southern African nation jumped as high as $13,499' but in which $ ?

asciilifeform: gotta prevent the spittoon from being in one strand. otherwise e.g. linux kernel becomes an antecedent to everything

asciilifeform: ( of which i have only 1 pair atm, but they did not ship with my feet )

asciilifeform: moar like my slippers.

asciilifeform: they're separate programs.

asciilifeform: rather than logical parts of same proggy

asciilifeform: point being that they are independent components that could be changed out

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: likewise i can see logbot being used without ircbot -- with, say, shortwavebot

asciilifeform: just how avoidable, or not, is separate q

asciilifeform: leave mechanical diffing to the machine, it's why we even have machine.

asciilifeform: being a human diff, on other hand, is not great.

asciilifeform: retyping is great

asciilifeform: kalash bullet dun work without kalash either, but they are quite separate items

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: actually i made a quite heavy use of phf's viewer, when linking to fg details in log

asciilifeform: or did i dream it

asciilifeform: and itself vtronic

asciilifeform: but is it published anywhere

asciilifeform: because i also ended up with http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=bot&search= and dun see where they meet

asciilifeform: possibly i am mistaken about this

asciilifeform: hmm

asciilifeform: ( iirc by ben_vulpes )

asciilifeform: trinque's logotronics were used by later bots

asciilifeform: also gotta nitpick, this is not the first time vtronic crosspollination,

asciilifeform: ( linker then links it )

asciilifeform: also helps that my mpi builds a standalone static lib

asciilifeform: lol

asciilifeform: ditto allocator

asciilifeform: thing could shrink further, i left koch's buffering system , used by the logger ( also remained ), intact

asciilifeform: snippetysnip

asciilifeform: ( i even threw out the prime gen )

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it wasn't even included in mine

asciilifeform: oh hey.

asciilifeform: but i suppose is now a dried, rather than soft turd.

asciilifeform: so it is still entirely a koch product

asciilifeform: asciilifeform certainly did not make any attempt to sanitize the remaining routines or otherwise ascertain correctness, however

asciilifeform: fair'nuff

asciilifeform: ( the correct way, ought to have been, to do it in individual tiny snips from gpg-1.4.10, so the pedigree can be authenticated . )

asciilifeform: because it was , as you can probably see, done barbarically

asciilifeform: prior to realizing that ffa is the troo path, asciilifeform actually planned to entirely re-do the mpi item

asciilifeform: ( namely, the volume of deletolade and moveolade liquishit resulting, is multi-megabyte )

asciilifeform: you can produce this mechanically. the unfortunate bit is that it gives same problem as basing trb on original 5.3.1 tarball contents did

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: my sigs for the mpiism are on the linked pg.

asciilifeform: aaa

asciilifeform: afaik there's nothing peculiar re the vdiff. lemme know why your parser barfed, phf , when you find out

asciilifeform: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1533 << mircea_popescu , phf whole shebang , for reference

asciilifeform: phf: if your thing wasn't able to parse it, i'd much like to know why

asciilifeform: and it's a perfectly legit ( manually ground, from mpi, just like trb genesis was from 0.5.3 ) genesis.

asciilifeform: tarball contains 2 files, the genesis, and sig

asciilifeform: a yes it is phf

asciilifeform: your copy of mpi-genesis.tar.gz was lost, or wat

asciilifeform: phf: didja ever explain what you mean 'lacks genesis' ?

asciilifeform: this is not necessarily a bad thing

asciilifeform: ( jurov's apparatus worx great. but it only introduces messages to the ml. )

asciilifeform: none, it worked

asciilifeform: and moar recently the db timings experiment

asciilifeform: the 'wires' thing

asciilifeform: hey i still to this day use jurov's system, whenever submitting trb patch.

asciilifeform: the current item, as i understand it, doesn't interoperate with wp ( or otherwise blogotronic )

asciilifeform: in this particular case, so that something else can be built from same parts

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: how's that

asciilifeform: the www viewer thing.

asciilifeform: aha, that's what it was called. the item which i suspect is 99% of what draws the heathens into 'git' etc

asciilifeform: but ideally yes whole thing

asciilifeform: into something publishable

asciilifeform: phf: consider at the very least sawing off the code parser and entire set of items that pertain to www

asciilifeform: aside from 1 nitpick, the charts overflow my screen

asciilifeform: phf: ftr i'm quite satisfied with it

asciilifeform: depending on what it's made of

asciilifeform: might be a considerable head start for item in this thread

asciilifeform: hey phf -- you ever published the v-viewer ?

asciilifeform: eventually will have to sit down and write it, if no one else rises to it

asciilifeform: i'd even settle for a very low-tech, orcish thing, that lives as emacslisp and shits out a wp post .

asciilifeform: not afaik written tho.

asciilifeform: but yes such a thing is writable.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: lol not in ~my~ fascist ada.

asciilifeform: it also has to have some notion of ada scope.
