mircea_popescu: i guess
they're getting pretty desperate, if
they're
throwing randos in jail in lieu of making good on
their usg.bitfinex
takeover obligations.
mircea_popescu: anyway, dood didn't get dragged anywhere, he kept crossing
teh border.

the first number is
the count,
the second
the quality (depends on your mining, whatever) ; you can mix
these,
the game will floor
the average quality.
this means you can lose matter
through mixing, so you want
to mix stacks so as
to obtain
the highest possible quality final.
Mocky: oh hey, i didn't have
the context for
that knapsack challenge when I read it in
the logs, had no idea what it meant. meanwhile forgot all about it
a111: Logged on 2016-08-20 14:38 mircea_popescu: here's a nice eulora knapsack problem for anyone looking
to sharpen
their ACTUAL computer science skills :
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> i
think it was cu jacket on steel core, like bullet <<
They usually are

this coordinated attack on
the republic is underimpressive
a111: Logged on 2018-08-21 18:26 phf:
this is for scripting
though,
the constraints are presumably not as
tight. also gc is a kind of outer bound of a problem, can usually be special cased on a case by case. e.g. in erlang's case you can do region based allocation per process: cons as much as you want, collect everything when process dies.

☟︎ BingoBoingo: At least its only a five figure number of chickens. My initial
thought was 10x
that.
mod6: hate
to see
that kinda waste
BingoBoingo: It's a
tale as old as
time. Chicken company went bankrupt. Food gets low during a cold snap while
the paperwork
to get more food is en
tramite. Chickens starve
mod6: BingoBoingo: eitherway,
terrible news :/
phf: Mocky: it's an affectation, old
time lispers used
to refer
to any kind of allocation as consing, but in c
terms
the implication
there is malloc + whatever collection facility, not just a fire and forget malloc
Mocky: cons is malloc for lisp, or is more meant by
that?
phf: (apparently erlang does
that already. gc is a per-process, everything's collected when
the process dies, but a very
traditional gc can be enabled or disabled also per process. apparently you can also specify process's heap size on allocation, and do
things when
that heap fills up)

☟︎ phf: re upstack gotta see how small an erlang vm can really be made.
to some extent
that work is going
to be done with
the whole
tmsr scripting language direction, where we have different vm's explored on a cutting
table.
Mocky: so
then do you have
to contend also with e.g. linux process scheduler?
Mocky: asciilifeform, what's
the problem with gc in
this context?
a111: Logged on 2018-05-19 18:36 asciilifeform:
the closest runner-up contender was standard ml, but it demands a ~MB-sized runtime , and imposes gc , nobody is ever stuffing it into 32kB.
phf:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-08-20#1843300 << little known fact: slime's architecture was originally implemented in a similar project for erlang called distel, by
the same author luke gorrie. lukego also wrote an emacs clone in erlang and
tcp/ip stack in cmucl.
☝︎☟︎ a111: Logged on 2018-08-20 20:59 mircea_popescu: just normal
toothpaste.
mircea_popescu: the problem further compounded by
the fact contemporary vaccine IS work of devil.
BingoBoingo: Well, a lot of people struck with
the mumps here were in
their 30s which suggests stretching
the vaccine out may be a fairly common
thing here
mircea_popescu: (not for me as much as for
these fine fellows,
they still like
their middle earth etc)
Mocky had pictured some savile row gents
taking afternoon
tea between lectures
mircea_popescu: 20%
to research, 80%
to phrasing research results "in such a way as
to not..."
mircea_popescu: "why should i make a correct
tool when could just use
this
thing available next day for 9.95 ?"
mircea_popescu: precisely how supposedly
thinking people ended up writing papers on "global warming" and whatnot. grants amirite ?
the COMFORT.
mircea_popescu: ie, monarchy got meanwhile overwhelmed by "democracy", so
the moron mind was "in charge" so it dispensed largesse instead of
trying
to attack
thought outright.
mircea_popescu: the problem in
the
time of darwin, however, was a bunch of morons
trying
to persuade him of
their wisdom.
mircea_popescu: the problem in
the
time of newton was a bunhc of morons wanting
to "burn down
the sorcery".
Mocky: comforting fairy
tales?
to what does
that refer?
a111: Logged on 2018-08-20 21:06 asciilifeform: for a laugh, look some
time for spectrum analyzer on lulazon. will find 9000 'homeopathic' boxes for 'finding
the cia mind control rays'.
mircea_popescu: which i suspect may actually be
the principal destabilizing factor historically, driving
the error generation process.
mircea_popescu: this being yet another aspect of
the problems of man alone. absent a fortress where
to do it, he's stuck solving some kinds of problems in some kinds of ways only.
mircea_popescu: fortress. so
the people inside can fire cannon upon
the peasants outside. because
this fucking reason.
mircea_popescu: for instance, do you know why it has walls, and how
they were ever used ?
mircea_popescu: without a formal AND FORMALIZED republic it's fucking hard for people
to handle
the orc pressure
mircea_popescu: hey, newton never published FOR REASONS rather
than by neglect.
Mocky: in '99 I and 2 others wrote a web framework in java for use in our company's products, no such published
thing was extant. shortly after someone else published identical item named 'struts', not stolen merely obvious solution. I
then watched
the published 'struts'
turn into ever bigger piles of shit year over year and suffered job interviewers probing my knowledge of 'struts' and i
think
that quite colored my
mircea_popescu: anyway,
the problems were 1.
to determine
the brachistochrone, and 2.
to find a curve such
that if any line drawn from a fixed point O cut it in P and Q
then OP^n + OQ^n would be constant.
mircea_popescu: very much
tmsr problems, smack drab in
the middle ages.
mircea_popescu: there was a problem circulated by
the swiss circle of mathematicians, which he elegantly solved (anonymously). except
they saw right
through
the anonymity, because doh, and begged him
to select and publish
the infinitesimal calculus method, lest someone else steals it.
Mocky: not
the last point
mircea_popescu: in point of fact, infinitesimal calculus was exactly
this, never published as such but merely used, "by
the claw we know
the lion" etc. you familiar with all
that ?
mircea_popescu: so
then : he, like you, also had "partial of code
that I wrote *with* other intelligent people and partially of
things
that i just just wrote personally
to simplify my own common
tasks and found useful over a long period of
time"
