asciilifeform: note also that ~this~ alone wouldn't turn it to barf, the above lines logged and display correctly
asciilifeform: or hm lobbes , can you elaborate re the internals of your thing ? does it put into wp at some pt , and ~it~ 'smartly' replaced % with ÷ and so on ??
asciilifeform: ... and epaulettes?! (i.e. long-time reader?)
asciilifeform: 'We Hunted the Mammoth is an ad-free, reader-supported publication written and published by longtime journalist David Futrelle, who has been tracking, dissecting, and mocking the growing misogynistic backlash since 2010, exposing the hateful ideologies of Men’s Rights Activists, incels, alt-rightists and many others.'
asciilifeform: lobbes: there may be others after 983243 also (current proggy stopped there cuz null line, will fix in coming days, had nfi fleanode permitted lines of length 0)
asciilifeform: the culprit will have to be found before this archive can be eaten, lobbes ; i suspect that the bitrot aint limited to uniturds
asciilifeform: lobbes: plox to describe ~exactly~ how you got it when you get chance
asciilifeform: lobbes: i am not gonna try to clean this, unless there is no other log, i suspect something unspeakable happened to it somewhere in transit to my desk
asciilifeform: ( and not, as one might expect, ru, or greek, etc. which 100% swallowed a+++ from phf's logs )
asciilifeform: typically lines containing numerics, are littered with bitrotted nonascii
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i can't resist to ask, didja actually work through the ro, or relying on googlefish etc ? cuz if it's the latter, yer certain to step on some sharp nails
asciilifeform: fwiw i also never was able to get 'squid' to work, and phuctor is cached on 'flask' end (caches expire in 5min, moar than enuff for when some bozo links one on reddit etc)
asciilifeform: in fact half the point of having that 'apache' to start with
asciilifeform: it remains the case that this is distincly job for the www server frontend, tho, and not individual proggy behind it
asciilifeform: ( there's no ~logical~ reason for it not to work, it's quite evidently Right Thing; simply happened that all the heathen utils for the job, were liquishit )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje iirc was defo a #t article
asciilifeform: i quite distinctly recall that it didn't work worthashit, and mp_en_viaje smashed a keyboard or 2
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: what was it you had last tried, iirc 'squid' ?
asciilifeform: rly there oughta be a apache-end util for this, but iirc mp_en_viaje actually went an' tried 9000 of'em and all were duds
asciilifeform: ( you'd have to cache all possible combos of knobbage, per page )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: this gets sticky. if knobs (incl. my multiline-select knob) suddenly yer disk cache dun do you good
asciilifeform: ( personally would leave out the join/partisms but perhaps that's just me )
asciilifeform not read how lobbes did log, but from context supposes 'produced dir of static htm's as it went'
asciilifeform: hence wai phf's method was Right Thing, and mine not
asciilifeform: theoretically this is Right Thing, mp_en_viaje . only headache is that 'flask' etc shitshow doesn't offer any path to it.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: so when does the proggy regen the x-y-z.html on disk ?
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: say i reply to yesterday's line from mp_en_viaje . nao the cached copy of yesterday's log is logically invalid (dun have the backlink to today's reply)
asciilifeform: (granted snsabot/www dun presently do backlinks at all)
asciilifeform: caching isn't magic pill against slow ugh ; if you want backlinkage to work as-expected you end up invalidating pretty much all cache just about erry time someone replies to log line
asciilifeform: these caches live in ram ( 'flask' dun offer a disk cache, and it'd nuke the ssd at any rate )
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i actually have cache, simply snipped out of genesis ver, need a few moving gears to invalidate it on 'tail' ('current') page of log when someone speaks
