phf: ben_vulpes: well, fwiw that question doesn't quite make sense from postgresql perspective either :) since your actual choice is to store decoded byte array in
a BYTEA, decoded number in NUMERIC or original hash in CHAR. integer won't fit an entire hash, since it's 4 bytes.
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: aha! we've had those for
a coon's age. 15yo import laws baby. suck it.
pete_dushenski: which i guess basically describes albertans in
a nutshell :
a buncha rich rednecks
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: will have to send me
a bottle of whatever he's enjoying tonight
mircea_popescu: you can always tell an anthropologist by that womenz and bikers are in
a confederacy against him!
ben_vulpes: phf: i'd like to stick these values into postgres, not hold them in memory in
a lisp process.
ben_vulpes: nobody can be sent out for infrastructure on
a bike.
ben_vulpes: can't be sent out for infrastructure on
a bike
phf: ben_vulpes: well, binary types are unrelated to the issue though. binary types you declare your struct, you still want to decide yourself what goes in the struct. treating hashes as numbers makes sense if you're going full lisp, i.e. you're actually going to do math with those numbers (which is at the end of the day their whole purpose), unless it's not actually
a hash but
a bit mask or
a xor'd something or other
phf: ben_vulpes: in fact reading
a hash becomes (parse-integer ... :base 16)
ben_vulpes: well the mr is
a hash of hashes, no? doesn't have much structure to it.
mircea_popescu: "of fucking course you can paste sql results into grep. it's called
a pipe. and alternatively... you could just write your sql correctly"
mircea_popescu: alternatively, phpmyadmin is also just
a script you can get standalone. tho in generall it's
a case of "people haven't actually ever tried to cli mysql because nobody ever told them they could"
☟︎ pete_dushenski: kudos to B. Zorina Khan for the enlightened perspective. hey, maybe (s)he's even
a log reader.
mircea_popescu: they have
a point. when i cant get
a bottle of nitric acid to carelessly spill on table, there's not going to be any inventions.
phf: z
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-20#1507246 << it's
a term of art from the 90s, back when malware carried exclusively destructive payload, but since then particular broken latin form morphed into oldfag leet speak for "malware"
☝︎ pete_dushenski: in other news no one here can use, i'm brokering
a rather minty 1991 porsche 964/911 carrera 4 coupe manual if anyone's in the air-cooled market.
ben_vulpes: i did not envision living in
a neighborhood without sidewalks.
ben_vulpes: i saw
a few vancouver rentals this weekend
pete_dushenski: i've been looking high and low for
a decent house rental
pete_dushenski: i'm content with
a few hot meals
a week, the rest, i scavenge. makes the hot meals all the better.
ben_vulpes: i have
a live in chef for food, and my own two hands for servers.
ben_vulpes: i mean yeah, it's
a microwave, to continue the cooking metaphor.
pete_dushenski: i've had no issues with cpanel in the past, nor is 'cpanel doesn't unglue without reformatting'
a cause to abandon it in my book

a $10 vps, no complaints, i did the initial ipv4 probing off of that. didn't run any i/o etc benchmarks tho. any particular questions (i can run some benchmark if you want)
a111: Logged on 2016-07-20 04:07 ben_vulpes: go, try to remove cpanel from
a machine.
trinque: danielpbarron: cell phone's still
a radio beacon at
a particular place even if it's lying to whatever API
danielpbarron: and in other channels news >> Clash> I spoof my phone's location to manipulate Pokemon Go. << nifty idea huh? I don't know the game well enough but it sounds like someone could rile up
a lot of feathers if they took this concept to the extreme
shinohai: mircea_popescu: re: wordpress so is there
a better way to do all this than the lamp behemoth ?
mircea_popescu: if i ran
a culture of cinema phd programme i'd spend
a few hours with that thing.
mircea_popescu: one of the very best offerings in comparative cinematography, btw, is imo
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1422122/ ;
a collection of 5 or so shorts - coupla of which made by exceptional directors, which shows ; the rest made by inept derps (hanno hofer worst of the lot), and they look exactly like "someone filmed 80 30second ad clips and spliced them together)
mircea_popescu: wtf was with that guy, there's
a montage worth
a good 10 minutes of him gurning meaninglessly at the [mostly burning] scenery
mircea_popescu: oh and speaking of
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-18#1504500 : so i was scammed into watching
A TV SHOW. not substantially different from "pride and prejudice"/random televisa production. lotta spurious "interpersonal relations" shots without much logic interspersed with meaningless "warfare" shots without much logic.
☝︎ thestringpuller: so i copy
a raw
http request from soapui, i put it into the raw section of postman
phf: i think i might've had
a cyrillic keyboard at some point. fwiw they are usually dual labeled, e.g. on Q you're also going to have
a smaller Й somewhere on the side
mircea_popescu: it's the fundamental reason "correspondence" even exists as
a thing in science.
mircea_popescu: and, to all unstubborn engineers and others present : when encountering
a difficult problem, do try and EXPLAIN IT. in writing.
mircea_popescu: what i said was that
a) ultimately all data is in point of fact data, and unless you're fucking around you will wish to look at the data ; b) that "Saving time" is only useful to people in
a hurry ; and people thinking are seldomly in
a hurry. rather than play with
a desk weight while i try to comprehend x item, i might as well longhand its structure.
mircea_popescu: obviously, if you'e looking at
a picture of snatch, catlols etc, best to scroll through. if you are trying to decide if there is or is not
a nuclear base there ;
a cancer cell there, etc
mircea_popescu: maybe i'm using that as
a thinking support. which i usually am.
mircea_popescu: PeterL depends man. if i am involved in
a process of trying to understand something, which may take many hours to many months, that i am saved five minutes for
a typing out is not necessarily useful.
PeterL: its like trying to see
a picture by looking at the bit values, works better if you have
a program draw it out for you
mircea_popescu: anyway. fucking javascript of
a language if i ever saw one, this english thing. how do you people live ?
mircea_popescu: part of the problem is obviously that english is
a language spoken by idiots, and it shows. but this isn't
a large part and certainly not the largest part - i was doing the same thing in romanian. arguably much worse - people don't realise romanian is ALSO mostly spoken by idiots.
mircea_popescu: trinque anyway, trilema is
a foremost example of "i have my set of defintions and you likely don't know what they are ; nor will likely figure it out through
a whole article - shit's too fine."
mircea_popescu: i think we're sitting on
a poorly understood oilpatch.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know ? it's actuallty much huger than originally realised ; v is actually
a model of knowledge in the general sense.
mircea_popescu: (cycle kind 1 : when your definitions can be forced into
a cycle by changing contexts ; cycle kind 2 : when your definitions can be forced into
a cycle by changing spot in time)
mircea_popescu: is not
a thing, no matter what it pretends), but it must have no cycles in it.
mircea_popescu: trinque the thing is that you're perfectly allowed to use your own, consistent definitions, even if they may contradict "the common sense" ; provided that
a) they are consistent ~and stable enough so as not to change by context~ and b) you're capable of expliciting them on request and this will not contradict previous construction. ie - you may have any graph you wish (chiefly because anyone does anyway, "community consensus"
trinque: there's
a pragmatic distinction here between "this is
a statement of holy truth" and "this shovel is currently doubling as guillotine in
a pinch"
mircea_popescu: well no, but your assumption that you making
a general statement will be taken as made rather than modified ad-hoc is not only unwarranted, but actually contrary to your declared preference.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-30 15:38 asciilifeform: trinque: fact remains, if you think i'm gonna run
a binary, ANYONE's binary, for whatever reason, yer smoking dope.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in dispute is not the ownership part, but the niche part. it's not
a niche!
a111: Logged on 2016-07-20 15:48 phf: well, they don't realize anything changed. decade ago
a newbie was younger version of you, today with some chance
a newbie might still be
a younger version of you, but much more likely it's
a person who never knew you had to wash hands after bathroom there purely to turn everything that you've built to shit
mircea_popescu: for as long as this "music library" thing was
a thing, winamp was the thing for it.
phf: there was
a pleasant notion of ownership with xmms, your playlist becomes an organic thing with
a state, with most listened artists at the top, sequences organically created that align with your personal feel for harmony, etc. without bringing that whole aspy ocd file management into the equation. can't really do it with cli.
