mircea_popescu: even MORE ironically, one can quite say
this was the face of the opposition. (chick married
that dork, hence the double name.)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: didn't love the hippos for the special and unique snowflake of a woman they really were ~deep~ inside.
mircea_popescu: the only truthful expression of history is to say nicolae ceausescu was the first mayogender victim.
mircea_popescu: "Tov. Nicolae Ceauşescu: Încă cu scriitorii n-am făcut o şedinţă ca să critic cum ştiu eu. Dar vă pun în vedere că o să ne pregătim pentru aceasta." literally.
mircea_popescu: ns, to the degree of not providing them with the requisite aspirational goods to enact the pretense and 3) he was ~critical~. there's even a moment at the "meeting with the writers" where he points out that he's not really taking them seriously, but maybe one day they manage to build an intellectual system that can take his criticism.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they shot the shoemaker, ironically enough, because he was excessively like me for their taste. their principal objections, unvoiced but truthfully and authentically reconstructed, were in order that 1) he sent them to do manual labour, in complete disdain of their self-identification ("we're intellectuals!!!") ; 2) he was unimpressed by the rest of their

☟︎ mircea_popescu: who knew that the 50% problem exists in the general!!11
mircea_popescu: spyked that's exactly why, undernet is almost entirely ro-based.
mircea_popescu: eventually they did, hence google ended up stuck with it.
mircea_popescu: trinque in your experience what's the bottleneck, ram ? cpu ?
mircea_popescu: so basically the offer for ircnetowkrs is "we're bringing three boxes"
mircea_popescu will stand up a muscovy server for hanbot too, let no oppinion, no matter how earnestly held or freely expressed, pass unpunished.
mircea_popescu: i happen to think this is a thing they got right (accidentally, and for purely historical reasons).
mircea_popescu: well, irc networks's federating's a five minutes config file settings, to list your ircd among the rest
mircea_popescu: trinque well, we're "married" in the sense that all extant infrastructure's written against it.
mircea_popescu: fwis, trinque already got one being tortured for the past six months ; depending on other workload mebbe BingoBoingo or spyked feel like putting one up also (but very much do not fall into the tarpit of chasing butterflies, from one to the next and catching none, fellas).
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform far from it. you do your thing, other people'll do this thing.
mircea_popescu: and incidentally! shouldn't you be ffaing or something ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't get it, you object to antique motd ?
mircea_popescu: the correct approach would be to go in their admin channels whatever they are, talk to the ops, see who would welcome more servers.
mircea_popescu: but the idea is, come up with a network by tomorrow. that work ?
mircea_popescu: anyways. im pretty sure this wasn't answering ~six hours ago.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at first i thought you went through the list of old dns responses/old servers and fished out one inexplicably not on mine
mircea_popescu: the cohen dork, ~claimed it~. like rms or linus or hwatever other, "cypherpunks" / "internet freedom" blablabla. like the piratebay dorks, like zimmerman, and so on.
mircea_popescu: djb was just some manalone. perhaps more talented than most, but manalone is manalone, like a very talented chimp. howsoever talented, the chimp's not a person.
mircea_popescu: this is a huge fucking difference, at least in my eyes.
mircea_popescu: but these two cocksuckers ~never did anything~, they were lords like nubbins was one briefly.
mircea_popescu: one example that'd come close is that aurenheimer schmuck say, or the charlie shrimp.
mircea_popescu: that's the situation, djb never derped at length about republican values.
mircea_popescu: there's this pic of some indistinct slut i posted once i'm too lazy to retrieve. she happens to be white, sports all manner of celtic cross tattoos, stylisized "SS" etc, is taking a coupla brown dicks.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: i can think of little more shameful than dood's "career", such as it is.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman what ended up being the problem then, i'm not getting something here.
mircea_popescu: the problem with any other datastruct, such as octets or words, is that you never know how large it is.
mircea_popescu: the ~problem~ with c-strings is that to know how loing it is you must look ~at the end~.
mircea_popescu: i really do not wish to see c strings, and i don't perceive char buffer to be different. "bitstream" does not exist. so my thinking is, to henceforth mandate datapassing as such a field.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman well, apparently it expects to be called with a bitstream, which is a peculiarly inconvenient datastruct in practice.
mircea_popescu: bflame how about you make yourself useful and implement a keccak as discussed ^ then patch diana_coman 's tree with it.
mircea_popescu: 0x(01 => length of 2nd field is 1) (14 => length of 2nd field is 20) (6865 6c6c6f77 6f726c64 = hello world).
mircea_popescu: diana_coman i mean that instead of keccak receiving array of bits stored in octets, keccak receives (and processes) a eucomms field.
mircea_popescu: to be clear : i expect that in the regular course of republican work, GB-sized vdiffs will occur -- strictly because we're contemplating confiscating all sort and manner of heathen artefact, and by now bloat is just a synonym for heathen. the "increase stack" fix works ok as a stop-gap, but we can't really 8x everything just for boredom.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman do you see the wisdom in implementing a keccak variant that uses
eucomms-style fields ? so that something like "hello world" would be passed as 0x01146865 6c6c6f77 6f726c64
mircea_popescu: ah, i vaguely recalled we had two of them, one bit the other byte.
mircea_popescu: phf pretty sure that's the wrong version of it ? iirc there was also a keccak that didn't explode ? diana_coman ?
mircea_popescu: true enough. nevertheless, in my view owning iron helps give pizarro some meat on its bones.
mircea_popescu: i don't really, and besides my/our policy has mostly been to have pizarro own iron, hence the snsa sale etc.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform imo it is the job of the kernel to expose all available memory (ram, and fucking hell, disk, too, ALL available memory) to me as i fucking want it : stack, cpu registers, heap, whatever it is i wanna call it.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's not at all evident vdiff is broken. what'd you have him do ?
mircea_popescu: the whole "low stack by default" thing is a low level "let's stimulate heap usage", in the same exact way the empire of smegma would impose a high import tax on soap.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman see, if it is broken code, then it just eats all stack available. but i suspect here code is sound, demand on stack defensibly large.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman try it with the megastack size from before, calling tests ?
mircea_popescu: make a 18446744073709551616 byte ram arm board, for the keks.
mircea_popescu: perhaps the correct republican approach is not to bake cpu, but to ~bake memory~. why even bother with the whole turdpile that's
ddr init when could simply have sane ram, and rk with it.
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: ie, socialism fails yet again, and calling itself "democracy" dun help anything -- flat is fail, no two ways about it.
mircea_popescu: ie, that structured data should really be much better hardware supported, that memory should include much more processor per storage cell, that in fact memory should look a lot more like trees than the current flat, democratic lines of "all cells are equal"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: asciilifeform thinking about whart you said, i can't repress the suspicion that maybe the memory model is acrtually profoundly fucked,as a central driver of the whole cs insanity.
