asciilifeform: if gabriel_laddel recently uploaded a commonlisp that doesn't behave like a retarded child when, e.g., socket shits itself 10,000time/sec, i must've missed..?
gabriel_laddel: It is a revolt against G-d and all that is good and true that there does not exist a platform, even on UNIX that one can buy for lisp development.
gabriel_laddel: just a minute, have rebooted both machines.
gabriel_laddel: I'm perfectly happy to use a lisp socket, but if I can't do it via netcat, I don't think it'll work via lisp
asciilifeform: trinque: i'm assuming he doesn't want to use a library, hence the netcat
trinque: why aren't you just opening a socket in lisp?
asciilifeform: (if you're using a crossover snake between two nics there is no conceivable reason to use anything but udp datagram)
gabriel_laddel: Am currently trying to send a string from A to B (must be over the ethernet cable) so as to make networked CLIM.
mod6: I'll conduct a bunch more testing tonight. I think this one looks a lot better with just having one 'deps' dir.

asciilifeform: and the incidence of such a thing at a konsooomer-friendly price point is ~0.
asciilifeform: crapple box is quite comparable to a stainless steel prison toilet - it resists whatever attempt at modification, either by user or whatever shitware he syphilitically encounters
thestringpuller: mod6: considering the above and your research gathered via the #bitotter project, did you ever discover a reasonable mobile device? or are they all shit.
asciilifeform: VE-2016-1828 in May 2016 without doing a security review of the code in question. In only 20 lines of code THREE codepaths existed that allowed UAF. Apple fixed only one of those paths although the other release() methods were clearly right next to it in the code...'
asciilifeform: hat the PEGASUS surveillance malware was using completely new kernel vulnerabilities to takeover iOS devices and that Apple heard about these problems for the first time mid August 2016. Unfortunately after having reversed what kernel vulnerability has been used by the PEGASUS surveillance malware a completely different picture emerges: The kernel vulnerability known as CVE-2016-4656 was only still in the code because Apple patched C
thestringpuller: "Our payment processor Coinbase.com was exploited and all Bitcoin and keys were stolen from the KeyVendor bot. These total to about $15,000. This was not, however, a direct security issue with the bot, but rather with Coinbase's merchant services."
mircea_popescu: needs a very strong, and well reinforced, and old identity to be able to masquerade externally. take your examples from biology : viri manage to bleed the cell from the inside ; but it's risky business. mitochondria similarly thought - and look at it today!
mircea_popescu: well sure, i'm not specifically interested in the execution as a matter of detail.
mircea_popescu: it's a cultural space, like any other. just like any other, it has to satisfy a minimum bar to be allowed to continue to exist. it has failed to pay its capitation, and so consequently it has no furhter place in the world.
mircea_popescu: not just the country. the whole thing. tell your mother she's a dumb whore, tell your father he's a total fucking idiot and you know fewer people you despise more, burn down everything in hebrew you own and never mention the accursed shithole ever again.
mircea_popescu: but as i don't figure you much for the "bitch, you will clean my boots or wear a new kippah anchor point, right in your fucking forehead" type, i'd have expected you'd just left.
mircea_popescu: well "every conflict situation". what exactly can be salvaged once it's not safe to blow pins off a table ?
adlai: maybe i'll put up a bigger fight next time, although i'd rather pick smarter fights.
adlai: several of the other people in the ward had 'run away' after a home visit, and got brought back by "men in white suits"
adlai: and... i don't think every single conflict situation warrants a declaration of war. sometimes you need to fight, but sometimes you need to regroup first.
adlai: it seemed like less effort to go through whatever process they wanted. i didn't realize at the start that it would last more than a couple days / week.
adlai: aha. well, honestly i thought at the time that i'd just stormed out permanently, only found out hours later that i'd been turned into a fugitive
ben_vulpes: i remember trying to make a point to a man who wanted to lock me up.
adlai: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-17#1544387 << nothing near as exciting, i knocked an office toy (magnetic paperclip people) off a doctor's desk while proving a point, which in his book counted as "violence!!!"; then i left the meeting, because they were wasting my time. sufficient cause, in this wonderful medical system, for an involuntary commitment. as one friend interpreted: "pissed off the wrong people" ☝︎
adlai: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-17#1544441 << that's a very short day! also, the 2nd F doesn't make much sense, i was pointing something out to phf specifically. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: "denotes a quanity" also.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: "what dat" is a pregnant americanism, as for the second sentence, you need a rewrite to parse?
ben_vulpes: the underlying joke of 'abject failure' is that was never even remotely a purpose
mircea_popescu: oh and also, "especially if you're the hardworking-yet-broke, but-somehow-stupid-enough-to-be-family-having type like myself." is the story of a generation. write a blog for them, they will come.
mircea_popescu: and in other news, a proper postmortem piece re "I attribute a large part of my abject failure to stuff cubicles with commodity labor and churn out software all day long to how willing" when ?
mircea_popescu: "What, as we say, dat? Could Uber be competing to own the vertical and horizontal in a space and failing to bite off an element of the business model that profitability is predicated on the ownership of?" << ben_vulpes can you say that again, but in a language, this time ?
mircea_popescu: o nm, was a pingback.
mircea_popescu: check it out, danielpbarron somehow has a recent comments plugin that includes diana_coman 's blog ?!
phf: there was a scifi story where a ship landed on a planet, lush, beautiful, with a cow like creatures inhabiting it. so they taste the cow meat, and they hang out, until, and i'll spoil it for you, they all turn, one by one, into same case
ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-18#1544713 << would be a concern were americans to get angry and mob ever, see: http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/18/us/minnesota-mall-stabbing/ ☝︎
jhvh1: shinohai: Error: "bcstas" is not a valid command.
BingoBoingo: Nah, because tradition. However do add responses for !~tradition1, etc. Also add a reply for the seekrit 13th step.
shinohai: BingoBoingo while I'm in here this evening, you want a oglafbot added ?
mircea_popescu: still, even thinking about it, both dagger and knife are insane weapons for the lone operator. unless with a group of friends, preferably sons of the people running the city as seein in italian renaissance for example, you're asking to be killed.
BingoBoingo: sop is also what you do with a mop to get water off the floor
phf: also sop is to ask for a pm from anyone who's speaking (i.e. awake and at keyboard) at the moment
BingoBoingo: yr: Register a key, flagg me down when you do, collect a rating, and learn to voice yourself?
a111: Logged on 2016-09-16 19:47 pete_dushenski: 'I was dead-set on finding a house with a garbage disposal, or "garburator" as our sorry ("Sorry!") neighbors to the North call them,' << l0l! love the souble dorry. also, i've never lived in a house or condo with a garburator and may never.
yr: well, I'm going to lurk for a while -- is there another way to flag you down besides pm?
phf: anyway, i should probably write the first version up, while it's a lul between attempts
phf: but obviously it doesn't have to be just load, can also be code that does a mutation on state or whatever
phf: so i use it to put a patch description, but if the section has ^L\n( or ^L\n; then i just execute everything between ^L and diff ... after the patch has been applied
phf: so my v based deployment had a hack, vpatch by diff artifact has a prelude section, that you can put whatever in. it's basically space before the first --- line
phf: but that's a hell of a lot more work
a111: Logged on 2016-09-18 21:40 mircea_popescu: iirc in the early days of c-as-replacement-for-straight-asm it's exactly how compiler became a thing. "dude... fuck hardware."
phf: yes, scp, screen, asdf. i had a v based deployment but i wasn't happy with it, so i'm trying to rethink it ☟︎
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-18: [18:22:30] <asciilifeform> phf (and any other interested folk) if you have a bit of spare change, buy yourself a 'pcengines api2', either 2 or 4gb model, it's this comp that comes with schematics. then we can play.
mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160918/#73 << there's a fine steel hatch to lock that down with now ; so you can transition to not doing it because x86 sux.
mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160918/#51 << no it's not. it ~can~ be, which is a whole different thing.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo lol, guy tries to do a nice thing, discovers the size of the republic, ton of birkcs.
yr: was just expressing my appreciation for your collective work, and would like to provide a small donation for hitting the site up once in a while for my informations
mircea_popescu: i don't trust an us educated psychiatrist anymore than i'd trust a shaman orthopedist.
mircea_popescu: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160918/#42 << the us clinical practice is literally insane. they also diagnose psychosis and prescribe medication in prepubescent individuals. psychosis in such is a strict biological impossibility.
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-18: [17:24:27] <phf> the advantage of something like a vop in general, is that you can emit part of the assembly that you're trying to get working in isolation first, can emit it and call in realtime (i.e. in a repl), can have multiple versions of until you get it right, etc.

BingoBoingo: Kinda the point. Their meanings can be reinterpreted over a lifetime for those sick folk who need it, because capable of only unhealthy relations with booze et al.
jhvh1: 4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

asciilifeform: and if we can get performance on par with, e.g., my 4mhz bolix 3620 - it's a win. of sorts.
asciilifeform: dunno, i think i went 'full chuck moore' a decade ago?
phf: oh right, and i called it a year ago, asciilifeform has gone full chuck moore :p
asciilifeform: betcha there is even a magic bit in amd docs that'll force no-inst-fetch-out-of-l0.
asciilifeform: lock up all the x86-aware liquishit in a few 100kb of hand-asmed kernel and never touch again.
asciilifeform: a la tinyscheme

a111: Logged on 2016-09-11 00:43 mircea_popescu: honestly, i think the people who abstract-and-code are idiots anyway. first, you do it by hand. then, you automate what you did. this way a) end up with something that actually works, and even without much design skill is well designed, by mother nature's help ; b) avoiud the trap of "i spent five engineer hours to save myself thirty three minutes of secretarial work over the course of ten years."
a111: Logged on 2016-09-17 21:07 mircea_popescu: phf to answer the "why asm" thing : because if at issue is to obtain a correct f(lisp) so as it produces the same asm as gcc(c) then we'd better have a good example of target "same asm". his approach is judicious.
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-17#1544485 << it was a knee jerk http://btcbase.org/log/2016-09-11#1539368 on my part. i was thinking why not write and use own high level assembly emitter, but thinking about it it would not have improved discoverability, because the task was all or nothing anyway ☝︎☝︎
shinohai: I'll gladly pay you next Tuesday for a kilo of blow today!
mircea_popescu: no, in a sense of course they offer credit - they don't really want to be buried in bills.
asciilifeform: pay cash upfront for a ton of cocaine.'
asciilifeform: 'As preferred customers, they often took Chapo's drugs without putting any money down, then paid the cartel only after they sold the product. This might seem unlikely, given the pervasive distrust in the underworld, but the narcotics trade is based on a robust and surprisingly reliable system of credit. In a sense, a cartel like Sinaloa has no choice but to offer a financing option, because few wholesale buyers have the liquidity to
BingoBoingo: Oh shit, I forgot to bring a cake!
mircea_popescu: wouldn't be the first guy with a great idea that then got totally beat to a pulp by trying to put it in words.

mircea_popescu: "Responding to an email message is a simple operation with a simple mathematical description." ok, i'm out. fuckhead has not the first inkling as to what he's talking about.

framedr_ghetto: btw if (tm)(r) is being used to denote those "trademark" signs (and not tmsr), it may be noted that (tm) is for an uregistered trademark and (r) is for a registered one. but i guess the reflexive-ironical use of these makes it fine :p
