mircea_popescu: let's take http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=bot&search= as an example tree.
trinque: aha, once there's a manifest, all's fine.
asciilifeform: i think trinque's observation is re how to glue the ~old~ tree on, in the first manifest-bearing patch
mircea_popescu: let me model this explicitly, see what's going on.
trinque: with the graffiti
trinque: yes, they have to reference it to bring it into the flow
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in the classical v, you gotta touch the old filez to weld your new patch onto the ancestor-tree that you want
trinque: how's the patch look, that adds the new file?
trinque: cannot add a new, standalone file, without editing something that existed previously
mircea_popescu: ed patch is now also well ordered, "caught in the patchchain" as it were) and b) we can and very likely will re-organize the portion between genesis and the manifest patch later anyway.
mircea_popescu: it's not being proposed as a retoactive fix. the idea is, ~after~ the patch that puts in a manifest, ~subsequent~ patches will be well ordered. and the fact that the earlier ones aren't exactly well ordered is a) resolved in any practical sense by the fact that you won't have patch imports across the barrier more than 1 deep (ie, once a patch after the manifest patch references a patch before the manifest patch, THAT refernec
asciilifeform: relatedly , some post-sov orcistans ( e.g. kazakh ) are toying with switching alphabets, will be interesting to see how that goes
trinque: no, because the dependency graph is denoted through files, and not concepts
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:26 trinque: ben_vulpes: because the manifest has no antecedent, and you're gonna have to go graffiti other files like an idiot
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829682 << i don't get it, you can't add new files for some reason ? this wasn't my impression ? ☝︎
asciilifeform at one time was quite invested in the notion of 'v format static 4evah' but mircea_popescu convincingly demonstrated that this is dumb
mircea_popescu: not much of a technical problem, perhaps, but there really is no rush with that particular thing.
asciilifeform: ( granted , still not a thing that ought to be done 'every morning before breakfast' but not apocalyptic headache , is the idea )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: imho 'ablations' where you can pin down the continuity with e.g. 5line of perlade , aren't much of a problem
mircea_popescu: iirc the big item was a reimplemented toposort.
mircea_popescu: trinque as i recall mod6 had had enough of maintaining his ; but this doesn't mean his work to date vanished, any noob/other person at any point hindered by the lisp v can pick up mod6's and maintain it
trinque: the luxury of specified items, that there can be several
mircea_popescu: the "multiple implementation" thing hasn't changed, just because there's a candidate reference one tbh.
trinque: if the question was why I linked that one, aside personal preferences, I recall there being some bug in the perl one, which wasn't in the lisp one.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'd still do the "ablation of 2011-2017" later tbh.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:21 mod6: the "latest client" linked in the article: http://blog.esthlos.com/esthlos-v-genesis-or-who-presses-the-pressor/
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829669 << if they don't like it, they can make own / maintain yours / etcetera. there's no requirement they use that one. ☝︎
ben_vulpes: well now i have to look into this and figure out what drives the memory of getting stuck. very foggy memories suggest it was the pruning of spent outputs i was unsure of.
asciilifeform: the 'is it same trb' is much smaller problem than it seems, is quite resolvable mechanically ( as demonstrated in my http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2018-April/000296.html experiment , for instance )
mircea_popescu: much better than having to resolve the "is it same trb" problem. what's the drawback ?
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:13 trinque: so if there's a hero around that wants to take that on, we can start getting trb patches out the door again.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829660 << you could just add the manifest in a patch, like diana_coman did for eucrypt. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes this is different from "i got mired in finding unspent outputs" ?
a111: Logged on 2017-05-14 05:03 ben_vulpes: on an eeeentiiiiirely different topic, it took months but i recently got the part of my output indexer that excises spent outputs from the index map to compile, which i believe brings the indexer part of this foray to completion. i invite any who'd like to read and comment to download the (unsigned!) vpatch from here cascadianhacker.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/export_outputs.vpatch
asciilifeform: this was variously reviewed in mircea_popescu's essays, summing up to 'modern folx can barely be arsed to do anyffing at all, not even rape & pillage, it aint easy to make'em get out of bed'
mircea_popescu: i don't recall exactly figures etc, but the 0.1% republican tax is rather inspired by the mongol approach to government
asciilifeform: seems like what they need is a martian invasion, or sumthing.
mircea_popescu: though, amusingly, tamerlane did tax ~the same amt as these guys do.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:02 ben_vulpes: heh, last time i took a crack at *that* i got mired in finding unspent outputs with trb
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829650 << i don't recall where this was discussed. was it ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: the 'mongols' also 'aint waht they used to be', can you picture tamerlane sitting in 'refugee camp' and filing lawsuits re the welfarola cheques bouncing ?
mircea_popescu: just think, there's in excess of 200mn cunts that desperately want and utterly need http://trilema.com/2017/mom/ ; who's gonna do it to them, the fiddy arab youths a day ? have you seen any of these malnourished shitheads in your life ? a hearthy sneeze might blow 'em down.
mircea_popescu: but yes, this objection is quite as strong as the "why trhe fuck did they need 60+ eyars to do it". i fully expect the "rape and slaughter of europe" to disappoint the eager victims. more of a fart than a raging hard-on, in any sense.
mircea_popescu: hey, chicks been slipping themselves mickeys in bars for decades. if it dun get up you get on your knees and suck on it, what can you do ?
asciilifeform: the picture, at least from my perch, doesn't match 'mongols come and the folx on the ramparts pretend not to notice and play cards' model; eurorasts organized, deliberately bring in the boats. what's the logic there ?
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2018/06/australia-ramps-up-flight-security-theater-with-powder-restrictions/ << Qntra - Australia Ramps Up Flight Security Theater With Powder Restrictions
mircea_popescu: aaand brecht can go hang out with the tulpas and just want to there in peace. win-win.
mircea_popescu: the german democratic republic is getting itself a new people, the old one disappointed.
mircea_popescu: turns out that http://trilema.com/2016/consumerism-is-not-the-answer-though-it-will-put-you-to-sleep-or-american-history-x/#footnote_4_65947 was pretty fucking prophetic
asciilifeform: sorta late to 'worry', current v of euro civ was spiffy and chromed, then wrapped around a telephone pole and repaired with junkyard parts no less than twice, stayed on the road for astonishingly long time, before bumpers , floor, coming off
BingoBoingo: Eh, don't worry for the museum. Let it get some history of its own.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-22 04:08 asciilifeform: in other veryolds, 'you'll feel no dismay, watching your house burn, after you get to see how the bedbug dies!' (korean proverb)
asciilifeform: i dunno who, tho, other than the socialist lolcows, will lament the demolition of the brutalist crapola. but there is no fly/cutlet separation, louvre etc will go down with the rest
mircea_popescu: talk about bringing salt to the snail pit.
mircea_popescu: so there you go, everyone ends up sucking up to hitler, the intellectual giant of the 20th century.
asciilifeform: btw recall how der fuhrer himself promised to tear down berlin and reformat
mircea_popescu: if he lived in the city rather than in the barn he maybe would. or maybe wouldn't, which is why he doesn't get to live in the city.
mircea_popescu: at some point the people LIVING THERE notice this, you know ? even if dung-in-toes sheepboy orlov (laughing at the moreso-dung-in-toes other sheeboys, ha-ha!) doesn't notice this.
mircea_popescu: maybe half of what the nazi built has some inkling of merit. but the rest, every public building built in eurpe the past century, belongs torn down.
mircea_popescu: tell me truly : do you perceive any cultural damage in islamist "colonists" in their own mind blowing up the brutalist "buildings" erected by the last gasps of the european socialist governments ?
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> or for that matter, euro-tolerast welfare pie was as sweet in 1990s as today. why no boats of eager eaters in '90s ? << Khaddafi
BingoBoingo: Similarly "re-newing" vows tends to kill the marriage
asciilifeform: or for that matter, euro-tolerast welfare pie was as sweet in 1990s as today. why no boats of eager eaters in '90s ?
mircea_popescu: because people were pretending to be angry with each other back then
mircea_popescu: exactly as described in 1984 : convincing pretense to conflict.
asciilifeform: imho the interesting bit is not that the tower of chair falls, but how it stayed up as long as it did
mircea_popescu: and they're doing exactly that, and it's reasonable as it ever was, and i really dun see wtf the orlov's all about. "here's what i don't understand about astronomy" "ook ?"
mircea_popescu: there's really no point of the curent bs continuing. it's lived out its last, time to re-cluny the continent.
asciilifeform: 'death by tolerasty' aint even new, iirc we had a thread re the persion variant
asciilifeform: ... said the boronated silicon !
mircea_popescu: anyway -- to the folks playing host, it is interesting like a soviet food ratios stamp.
asciilifeform: at one time asciilifeform had a poster of hiv virus electromicrogram. it is very interesting-looking item. but i imagine to the folx playing host, it is interesting in very diff way..
mircea_popescu: while born with cunt, they get what cunts beget.
mircea_popescu: yes, the women are getting raped. that's what they're for. their "ideals" don't enter into this, thyey wanted ideals they shoulda been born with an ideals between the legs.
asciilifeform: no moar than aids patient has a say
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the inhabitants have 0 say in the process.
asciilifeform: to the inhabitants, however -- interesting.
asciilifeform: civilizations live, die, i suppose to immortal olympians it isn't even particularly interesting process
mircea_popescu: it doesn't seem to work out to a better alternative ; a happenstance this current know-nothing party seems to be as blisfully unaware as the previous.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-24 19:33 PeterL: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-24#1818207 << sounds like where I live (Midland,MI: 50k people, you can go a mile out of town and have multiple acre lots)
mircea_popescu: moreover, the only practical alternative to this "being the place everyone goes" is... "being the place everyone leaves", ie africa, russia, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-24#1829335 etcetera. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: you can't ruin cunt by fucking, it's not made of soap ; and that's what europe is, the globe's cunt.
mircea_popescu: experimentally, barbarian invasion does not kill europe. not when the barbaric romans ruined the etruscan and greek vases, not when barbaric germans ruined the roman vases (you know iberia is originally a place in fucking azerbaijan, yes ?) not when etcetera.
mircea_popescu: the result of that "suicide" was http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-19#1826732 ; realise it or not, the difference between sicily and italy is described in true romance : "sicilians have nigger blood, because the moors were niggers". ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 16:25 asciilifeform: meanwhile, in entomology dept, https://archive.li/IAUet >> orlol,'Barbarians Rampage through Europe's Cemetery'
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829629 << this constant worry at the margins and in the colonies as to "europe suicide". yes, obviously, if ~russia~ let a bunch of rando foreigners in, ~russia~ would disappear. but this is because russia isn't anything, let alone very much. europe is old, and throughout this oldness it "suicided" exactly in the manner described. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: that's quite like saying "this pile of javascript does indeed work". sure, it does, just like the item that produced http://logs.minigame.biz/2018-06-25.log.html#t17:56:50 worked.
ben_vulpes: it's either there or regrind back to the genesis
trinque: ben_vulpes: got it; yeah, I'd say if it gets bolted on, inside the makefiles patch is a sensible place
trinque: I agree, promisetronic without the vtron getting angry at you over mismatched name
trinque: phf: thought I had there was that if you have only a manifest in hand, perhaps the name is useful in some dht lookup for the patches later
mod6: hmm. maybe not required in a technical sense. but i'd like it all to hang together, and be proper. for posterity.
trinque: could say we want trb to be exemplar of "how to V", in which case yeah, regrind it all ☟︎
phf: trinque: one reason i didn't include patch name in the manifest is because patch name becomes a promise, unless you enforce it by tooling. i didn't want to go that way, but since current standard manifest does include patch name, than perhaps V ought to check the manifest against the patchset. relatedly fully manifest-based v doesn't even need graph tooling, can presumably press according to manifest's chain. ☟︎
trinque: could decide that we're fine with that historical fact. world won't implode
trinque: what it means is that before that point, there isn't a manifest-enforced press order
mod6: because if so, then we need a new trb genesis. which doesn't effect v in anyway, just another pita for trb.
mod6: ah, then nothing i can think of. don't know what i was on about there.
mod6: it's just a flat file that resides in the project, ya?
trinque: mod6: what do you imagine needs to change in a vtron to support the manifest?
