mod6: asciilifeform: i can imagine that there's some stuff to it, ya.
mod6: <+shinohai> trb node should be back up soon, motherboard still boots up, replaced nic with external model. << good deal :]
mod6: just in case. we've been getting some weather up here too.
mod6: i did just have my trees cut back from the powerlines about a week ago.
mod6: i have similar ones.
mod6: and cable modem was plugged into defective surge protector?
mod6: if there is room in the chassis, see if you can just stick in a PCI eth card?
mod6: yah, good deal to have a backup!
mod6: that bites, does it still boot?
mod6: colo box? or was just at the spot?
mod6: just some at-mines brew^H^H^H^Hgarbage
mod6 is drinking bad coffee.
mod6: I'll try to get that done this week.
mod6: That reminds me too -- I need to go through and cleanout my wot one of these days.
mod6: pete_dushenski: saw your blog post about how you worked through getpeerinfo - very nice of you to say. :]
mod6: mircea_popescu: ahh good. just made myself a nice ham sandwich.
mod6: you fixin up the bmw?
mod6: mircea_popescu: this is actually what a guy at auto store told me recently too; but other fellas have told me, "if you wanna be 100% sure you're not going to introduce any problems, just use what it says in the manual or on cap."
mod6: asciilifeform: thanks for the hex example.
mod6: im not sure why they switched to the new coolant. they always just said, "lasts longer, etc." but i wonder if it was really due to the proliferation of aluminum blocks.
mod6: (noshit.jpg) et. al.
mod6: anyway, the wisdom seems to be, use what's described in the manual or even written on the radiator cap. fwiw, never open a radiator cap while engine is hot - contents under pressure.
mod6: post, most seem to now use this "dex-cool" stuff which is pink or orange. you are not supposed to mix them, no. and as bb says, can introduce rust into the water jacket of the block.
mod6: <+BingoBoingo> <mircea_popescu> i bought a can of coolant, it's FLUORESCENT GREEN << he dye is to tell you which of several incompatible types of coolant it is. Mixing GREEN and ORANGE coolant is a good way to introduce rust to one's engine block cooling passages. << iirc, all vehicles pre-1995 or so used the green coolant.
☟︎☟︎ mod6: apparently this ends up being O(N^ln 3) or something
mod6: yeah, few examples i've seen of karatsuba all use base 10..
mod6: just was overthinking it .. thought maybe the '2' was a base reference or something
mod6: mircea_popescu: yup, gotcha, that short hand threw me through a loop for a minute. lol.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> if it weren't obvious, k = 16 << this seems to make sense
mod6: if i FOIL this thing (10 + 1)(10 + 1), i get: 10*10 + 10*1 + 1*10 + 1*1; 100 + 10 + 10 + 1 = 121. ooh, is see what you did there.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> trivially, 11 * 11 = 121, and also (10 + 1) * (10 + 1) = 10 * 10 + 2 * 10 * 1 + 1 * 1 = 121. << what I can't figure out is where the part: + 2 comes from.
mod6: i haven't groked it yet.
mod6: mircea_popescu: ok thanks.
mod6: is this like taking the low-order bits of X0*Y0 << 2*(WORD_SIZE), and (((X0+X1)*(Y0+Y1) - X0*Y0 - X1*Y1) << WORD_SIZE ?
mod6: asciilifeform: can you explain what K is and why we need to shift by it?
mod6: I guess, it doesn't cover karatsuba specifically, but gives some background perhaps for the uninitiated.
mod6: ok. so there looks to be a section on this in AoCP Vol 2. section 4.3.3. [ Section A ]
mod6: yeah, im about to write this one on my whiteboard here.
mod6: this seems to make sense to me off the cuff.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> and great tits to you too, mod6 ! << and to you Sir!
mod6: i'll have to check it out
mod6: yeah. back to dos-like sys
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> unixanything. << ditto
mod6: this whole year has been nuts. i feel like im constantly behind. all that stuff with my mom just sucked up so much time.
mod6: na, not quite that long. it ~has~ been at least since xmas or so since I popped in last tho.
mod6: having fun with that.
mod6: gathering some things up in eulora.
mod6: what does that ssh thing do?
mod6: one of these times you're gonna pop it
mod6: then that's what it is.
mod6: "m00" "oh your butt hurts" "m00!" "maybe get that fist out of your ass..." "n000!"
mod6: these cows just don't care they they have an NSA fist in their asses. never did, never will.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> ^ d00d pushing 'onerng' over FUCKGOATS, with argument that the former 'is open source, mathematically verifiable, ...drivers for all current os, even openbsd...' while the latter 'no drivers, connection using obsolete medium - serial port, limited entropy' << limited entropy?! herp.
mod6: cool, thanks for the testing shinohai
mod6: i got it to work lastnight, but im not satisfied with it yet.
