mircea_popescu: on one hand, i think it really should not be our preoccupation
as s.mg. it's not actually important enough.
mircea_popescu: just drove stylistic choice of form,
as it happens convenient.
diana_coman: but ftr, the fact he writes those in parts is because I set him to do that (
as a cure to wasting time otherwise).
BingoBoingo has thought of a blog post
as being like a fence post. A structural piece holding together the larger blog
as a whole. The poor labeling argument however does carry more weight than my previously private metaphor.
mircea_popescu: yes, and you're cordially invited to do it on facebook. you could similarily cook using something other than a stove -- such
as for instance, an open pit fire. you're cordially invited to do that with your berber brethren, rather than indoors. and so on.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman, "open
as in free not
as in beer and source
as in
source not
as in entry!!!"
snsabot: Logged on 2019-11-05 08:41:55 mp_en_viaje: peterl & all : would you mind terribly if you referred to your articles, on your blogs,
as articles ? it's what they are, i get it, you post them, but calling them "posts" makes about
as much sense
as calling cars "a drived" and girls "a fucked". you don't go about bars with a "hey, fucked! wanna do shots ?", do you ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-04 08:05:05 mp_en_viaje: comments welcome ;
as things currently stand i'm thinking a one week auction starting tomorrow is the way to go here.
mp_en_viaje: c. 1200, "separate parts of anything written" (such
as the statements in the Apostles' Creed, the clauses of a statute or contract), from Old French article (13c.), from Latin articulus "a part, a member," also "a knuckle; the article in grammar," diminutive of artus "a joint," from PIE *ar(ə)-tu-, suffixed form of root *ar- "to fit together."
diana_coman: yes, but "post" there for all its similarity to "to post to the blog" is just
as made up,
as far
as I can see; a blog post,
as there is a newspaper article, dunno; and in the vein of "just
as much to do with what they are doing otherwise", wouldn't that hold for articles too?
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: blog is just a made up word
as much
as post is.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, the reason i brought it up being specifically "In the past, software development could be done by applying a series of patches to arrive at a final program state. With v, the patch is replaced with the slightly different vpatch,
as described below."
ossabot: (ossasepia) 2019-10-29 diana_coman: PeterL: and for completion, the application 2-steps process applies to you just the same
as to any newcomer (if anything, due to do-nothing history, you start with a minus compared to them).

hanbot: re "related confict", gotta admit i've gotten rather sad from the way it's decayed. i guess stating it
as such is my attempt to let it go; i've said what i thought was relevant on thewhet and well...pfft.
mp_en_viaje: but
as far
as the weather goes, this was a superb autumn in yurp, had like one day of rain in five weeks' journeys, and even now, it's just sunny and beautiful.
diana_coman: mats: seriously,
as aggressive
as I might seem to you, maybe read the #ossasepia logs and figure some help out.
mod6: mp_en_viaje: Thank you for the response. I don't plan on doing anything to get neg-rated. Just having been in the soup,
as it were, for some time. Figured, my turn is coming. But I hope I'm wrong about that.
diana_coman: mats: no; I upped you to figure out what you are actually doing since you seemed to have become again active; why does that strike you
as aggressive?
mp_en_viaje: comments welcome ;
as things currently stand i'm thinking a one week auction starting tomorrow is the way to go here.
spyked: so far looking at the rss list-of-items
as an ordered list sounds like the simplest and cleanest approach, I currently dun see any reason why the blog would change that on reconfigs.
mircea_popescu:
as it happens i was just going through the complete works by cosbuc these days
mircea_popescu: "Zici ca de m-ai fi cerut mamei tale nora-n casa, n-
as fi vrut sa merg? E, lasa! Ca de-o fata cui-i pasa, nu se ia dupa parut! De-ntrebai, ai fi vazut!"
ericbot: Logged on 2019-11-02 10:17:14 mircea_popescu: i'd go
as far
as to say that any feed without a guid is ~therefore~ broken, and any software putting out such a thing has to be fixed.
BingoBoingo: My youngest brother, not the dentist, is an engineer of the mechanical flavor. Whatever gets other engineers focused on the internals of their computers, it never took with him. Roughly
as uninterested to him
as the internals of his car. When I started putting together bookshelves back in old country for something to do with my hands, he offered to help.
BingoBoingo: I'm not entirely unsure I don't have or in the past hed a touch of engineer bogging down my head, but not indentifying
as an engineer myself... I am unsure what has to break for an engineer to get the resignation, that can build to a faith, that recovery can proceed from.
mircea_popescu: (exactly the same situation, p to q
as a to b, is what i mean)
mircea_popescu: people will give up engineering
as an activity if there's enough "being an engineer" nutcases involved.
mircea_popescu: but yes, people afflicted with "being an engineer", the mental disease, often end up working ~
as~ engineers. it's a lot like pedophiles working
as camp guides or w/e : superficially they're some of the best, most serious & dedicated etc workers in the field ; but
as a group they're also pretty much the only serious danger to the field -- people will definitely stop sending their kids to camp if there's enough pedos running c
diana_coman: I don't think it's in the engineering though; more maybe the other way around ie engineering
as a result, not
as a cause.
mircea_popescu: maybe the way out is rather in the vein of handling addiction, make an Engineers Anonymous, build up a list of tenants, "i understand i have a problem, that i can't fix but i can try to manage, and by the higher power
as i understand it ima try" or somesuch.
mircea_popescu: i understand the more fashionable neoprotestant theory on the topic requires "i can do anything"
as a hard prerequisite, and therefore "personal development" or "growth" is a boundless field of possibility. i'm... well, moderately optimistic on this topic, in the sense that i don't for a second credit such nonsense.
mircea_popescu: minus, i guess, the lsd theory,
as the one exception. i'm rather with the classical psychology camp : the fundamental breakage in cognitive development brought into view by the unyielding flow of events was probably definitively formed by age 12 ; developmental delay is sometimes recuperated in later years -- but in the ~early~ later years.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile --
as perhaps the strangest case of sycophants & cut-throats hypnotizing the supposed mastermind in recorded history, it turns out that i... actually agree with ~everything~ everyone else said to asciilifeform (not that it's hard, the various rays being remarkably collimated, there's harmonic agreement the likes of which cultists' dreams are made of).
mircea_popescu: i'd go
as far
as to say that any feed without a guid is ~therefore~ broken, and any software putting out such a thing has to be fixed.
mircea_popescu: there's an aspect under which it's currently agnostic, namely that articles come in an entropy-locked timeflow, whereas it expects to see them
as random lists.
spyked: altho ftr, most feeds currently handled by feedbot are wordpress rss, so if that gets declared the reference point, could use it
as such
diana_coman: ftr I do enjoy reading otherwise your crisp descriptions there but
as they build up, in the end I'll still have to summarise & basically extract a "spec" out of them.
diana_coman: spyked: hm; still a list ie once it finds what it had
as "the last previously announced item", why would it look further?
diana_coman: spyked: they have the timestamp, no? and/or they come
as a list anyway.
diana_coman: I'm also rather weary of manual disables and the like because 1. this never scales, it can't 2. now I need to keep a list of things for which to poke spyked to disable my feed if I
as much
as touch them on my own blog?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-01 20:49:54 billymg: yeah, when originally ripping it out, my brain parsed a "if (! $richedit ) ..."
as "if ( $richedit ) ..." and so removed the line

BingoBoingo:
As far
as I can tell nothing notably better than the existing local assets
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: and rather surprisingm when I actually took the time to look into the archive.php thing, it was
as easy
as snip-the-shit
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: I always imagine
as a consequence the story of Death-With-A-Lawnmower at that image.
diana_coman: there's always this code-text tension that annoys me because I still read it
as broken-sign: code should be text but then each time I try to get it along text, it doesn't play well, ugh.
mp_en_viaje: it has that shape, made to fuck grass. it'll fuck simpletons just
as well. hence the falx, the traditional weapon of muh ppl, the one thing the romans feared.
mp_en_viaje: i meant stronger
as in "a stronger play", they make better horses, how the hell should we introduce this concept.
mp_en_viaje: i admit that he doesn't sound altogether sane, an' if you wish to take it
as a poor reflection on my judgement that i permit insanity to stand in the light i'll have to bear it ; the alternative strikes me
as outright perversity and i dun wanna.
mp_en_viaje: in any case
more never looked
as splendid
as when scofield dressed up in him.
mp_en_viaje: "Listen, Meg. God made the angels to show him splendour.
As he made animals for innocence and plants for their simplicity. But Man he made to serve him wittily, in the tangle of his mind. If he suffers us to come to such a case that there is no escaping, then we may stand to our tackle
as best we can. And yes, Meg, then we can clamour like champions, if we have the spittle for it.But it's God's part, not our own, to bring ourselves to such a pass.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, so paul scofield (
as a most excellent sir thomas more) talks to his daugther :
BingoBoingo: Kinda like how here the local police seccional is where old men hang out while younger men in uniforms take reports to enter into the official record
as a sorta notary.
BingoBoingo: Right, I am uncertain the extent to which things here do
as claimed. "Planta de explosives" could be the exact equivalent of a western farm kid's back shed except with uniforms and such.
BingoBoingo: They've got plenty of cellulose, now beating beef
as an export in real value terms. Difficult to be certain the the extent a "planta de explosivos" is actually a factory.
snsabot: Logged on 2019-10-28 16:20:50 asciilifeform: moar alive nao than ever.
as for mp_en_viaje , plox to post the signed addr. piz liquidators, plox to take proceedings to #p. folx who intend to continue to crib off asciilifeform's work, which continues, or want functioning hosting : to #a. (which i'ma take is no longer official mp castle, i'ma take off the sign shortly.) next gen of FG will still be produced, on asciilifeform's dime ( and i'ma respect mp_en_vi
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I understand your desire to construct a defense, but look. I just took apart and reassembled a hand stack of machines to get two photos at your request. You introduced a potential competing claim to title on some of the FUCKGOATS, which I will investigate
as I must. However the count and all the photos in the world don't mean shit if you sign off on a S.NSA closing inventory that includes items other folks hold the title
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I removed those during the count
as trinque has made it clear that he has little interest in the future of that chassis. I am also now going to have to put statement and not archaeology on the to do list to sort out wtf is going on with that, because it does affect the meaning of the count.
mp_en_viaje: bimbo (who watched
walk of shame with us yesterday, and was very miffed at the whole premise -- "that dumb bitch, they even speak her language!" ;
as one who has spent days exactly in the manner there depicted but in rando orclands, she's quite entitled to the pov) : "so... umm... i published an article... it's not very good..."
diana_coman: asciilifeform: no, there is no such thing
as aimed at a level; name people if you are aiming at anyone or otherwise don't just throw words about.
mp_en_viaje: i sit here watching the redancing of a dance you danced coupla years ago, knowing full well you'll come full circle from this,
as from all other positions. it's...
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, looky, i get it, it's unpleasant to wake up in the morning and read today's log. it can't be helped ; moreover, you built it, systematically an' carefully, by your very own self, an' against the opinion, advice an'
as close to knock upside your dumb head
as anyone managed. what can you ask of people, that they fly over and literally beat you into sense ?
snsabot: Logged on 2019-10-30 10:24:17 mp_en_viaje: i want to make sure i've done all i can so i don't end up in the same circle of hell
as he, and the rest of them "engineering" retards, from
chuck dicksuck to all the rest.
mp_en_viaje: hanbot_abroad, i'm actually paying to have the logger fixed, get the ass-sucking dependency he baked in there
as an idiot taken out.
mp_en_viaje: i intend to cut
as much
as possible fo worm off the hook, and i'm rather willing to take zero than any hook.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: I suppose there is also the same question applied potentially to the FG and FFA then; but fwiw I digested FFA
as well
as I could and I still think it is a gem, perhaps a pearl better put: quite the result of successive spinnings/polishings
hanbot_abroad: it was withstood, consciously,
as long
as it was, for good reason that remains good reason, no?
mp_en_viaje: i want to make sure i've done all i can so i don't end up in the same circle of hell
as he, and the rest of them "engineering" retards, from
chuck dicksuck to all the rest.
diana_coman: mp_en_viaje: over the past few months I had *loads* of precisely thinking re survival given
as the whole client+ graphics+EVERYTHING kept growing
as work for me to do rather than ever receding so I can get to developing the actual game on server.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-10-11 11:21:04 mp_en_viaje: because he has sexier things to do than what you need ; and, importantly, because this is WHY he wanted to be a "craftsman" in the first place, and why attempted to scam you into buying custom, rather than standard items : so
as to fuck you over by doing "sexier things", because in his broken mind the very thing that impels the "craftsman" misbehaviour also looks at your damage
as implicit justification -- in that
mp_en_viaje: now,
as we stand, he might've infected us with enough stupid to simply die, specifically in the form of such teoria chibritului hardware and software stacks.
mp_en_viaje: we'll leave the matter of ~why~ "couldn't figure out" for the 3rd discussion, in group ;
as we'll leave the assorted bits and ends, how other than whatever the idiot is doing to sabotage himself, with his "circumspect" "conservative" approach every time he should press an advantage, wasting the time so when shit hits the fan,
as shit always hits the fan, he can just be sad instead of ciercumspect, and oh, if only the world were
ossabot: Logged on 2018-02-05 21:11:14 mircea_popescu: and
as an added bonus, you now get to go about looking for lords willing to bring your ideas about republican iron to the table, because i'm not further looking for your input on the topic just
as i'm not further looking for your input on eucrypt topic.

diana_coman: the debacle with iron specs?
as cited in the time-mgm piece I wrote iirc?
diana_coman: BingoBoingo:
as I previously said in #o, I'm all for xpollination with a qntra-writing course for sure.
mp_en_viaje: with diana_coman
as to the future strategy of s.mg (which normally'd belong in eulora, i suppose, but honestly might
as well happen here, not like there's any traffic jam or anything) ; and of course with diana_coman hanbot trinque BingoBoingo lobbes spyked bvt ave1
as to what exactly we still want and we can in fact support going forward.
mp_en_viaje: so, if you ever end up publishing half an article because your connection died mid-publish for w/e reason, and
as a result your article's comments are closed -- the one pill is to edit the db, set comment_status & ping_status to "open" again.
mp_en_viaje: e open or not come AFTER the body of the article, and
as the default is closed...welll... they'll thus be closed.
mp_en_viaje:
as it turns out, mp-wp has a ... well, i dunno, i hesitate to call it a bug. it has the following issue : if the publishing of an article (which is itself handled
as a
http post) gets interrupted for whatever reason (such
as the connection dying, the closing packet being waylaid, anything), the article will still be publioshed, partially, ie what made it there ; however because various settings (notably, whether comments etc) ar
