diana_coman: atm I'm just playing around with generic
to wrap my head around it! lol; but receiver can haz max size and
then report, no?
diana_coman: asciilifeform, yes, atm I'm looking at it for
the
test harness, for which I
think it fits great (since I wouldn't want
to go writing 1-65535 explicitly if I can help it)
a111: Logged on 2018-09-14 16:02 asciilifeform:
the only lang feature
that gets in
the way of
this partitioning is 'generics', but iirc diana_coman did not use
these anywhere
diana_coman: in other pleasant surprises,
this generic
thing in ada is very useful
diana_coman: I can fully see
the point
to
that, certainly
diana_coman: my approach has been:
try with keccak; if fails, for now at least,
try with old sha-based
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I can see
the point given how often I went already "oh,
this is /not is keccak/sha"
diana_coman: possibly because I did not yet fully digest
the new one (or not as well as old one)
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I know
that pain, honestly; I still
trip over
this change and I wouldn't even say
that I have as convenient a workflow with new
tooling as I had with old
diana_coman: cool; I was just surprised +
trying
to understand what is going on
a111: Logged on 2018-07-08 00:14 asciilifeform: i expect
that errybody currently
tuned in, will use keccak.
diana_coman: uhm, wait; you mean you
think it might still change and *not* be keccak? or current keccak version not surely if keccak? or...dunno, what?
diana_coman: the issue at hand is more simply
that being sha means it will have
to go
through regrind at some point and so I'm not very keen on adding
to it patches just
to have what
to regrind later; but maybe
that's just me
a111: Logged on 2018-07-06 23:15 phf: considering
the slow adoption of
the keccak approach and also a large number of existing sha512 patches, i'm planning on doing a regrind where i merge
the keccak and
the sha branches
together, so
that vpatch/vdiff can produce both hashes on a switch, until further notice.
diana_coman: asciilifeform, I don't get it: are you saying you need mircea_popescu
to officially declare it something or
the other or what?
diana_coman: asciilifeform, since your udp genesis is using
the sha hashes + a "history" file I'm not sure: do you have something against
the move
to keccak + standard manifest file for v-trees?
Mocky: huge mass yes, but all
the good picks still less likely
to be
taken, and more willing
to dote over whatever can be found
Mocky: if you're a woman who wants an arab man, qatar is
the shit. step up on your pedestal and
take your pick
Mocky: construction workers for
their 2022 world cup stadii firmly in gulag, unpaid for year+, dying at a rate of 1 every 2 days, according
to
The Guardian ~2014
☟︎ Mocky: or if bank says you owe a dime, can't leave. no
time limit
Mocky: yes, doesn't apply
to visa on arrival which i'll be using. but if i want
to stay past 60 days need some sort of business sponsor or hotel sponsor. and if use sponsor,
their failure
to file paperwork will prevent you from leaving
Mocky: i'm a noob
to international
travel, but
the whole exit visa
thing seems super sketchy
to me
a111: Logged on 2018-09-01 17:06 mircea_popescu: i figure... you get what 2 ? 3 ? months
there until
the first save point, see if it can be done or can't be done ?
Mocky: tried
to stretch it out in madrid long enough
to look around but couldn't make it work
Mocky: on
the way back I'll have 3 hrs in madrid and 3 in miami
BingoBoingo: <Mocky> got my flight booked. will be on layover at heathrow for 15hrs on oct 8th << I don't feel so bad about
the 45 minutes I ended up with in Panama now
Mocky: never been
to London before, but from what i hear, can practice my arabic with half
the population
Mocky: it was
that or pay fiddy buks more for 12 hrs layover in
turkey.
turkey wasn't gonna let me out of
the airport
tho
mircea_popescu: Mocky why
the hell would anyone do
that
to
themselves.
mircea_popescu: osmanli harems were populated by
the valide sultan, ie, mother of guy.
mircea_popescu: ie, unibrows, moustaches, bellybutton lint, you know,
the COMPLETE
mod6: lol, i remember
these,
that one lady looks like Jay Leno.
mircea_popescu: lol you saw
the pics with
that obscure middle earth harem, all chicks with mustachios ?
a111: Logged on 2014-03-20 14:20 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'cum se suge pula' << can't help but associate
this in my head with
the finnish proverb, 'Pillu se on pulullakin'
a111: Logged on 2018-09-18 18:22 asciilifeform:
this is
the other
thing, 'changes are expensive' promote imho a sane view of software, where you actually
try
to perma-stabilize yer proggy, rather
than
to keep up
the classic 'open sores' eternal cauldron of bubbling liquishit
mircea_popescu: well so of course if upstream fixes something, downstream will have
to either import or lose out.
this can't be different nor is in any known system.
mircea_popescu: or you mean "regrind
the patch" ? usually regrind means you know,
the whole
tree.
