mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, in
theory
this is a
theory, but in practice his comments are still weird looking.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
there's also
the 2nd order effect, whereby by interacting with heretics you find out stuff like "hey, i have a memory leak"
phf: mircea_popescu: oh i'm not suggesting
there's folly here, i'm a)
thinking of how
to better slice
the beast and b) pointing out
that it's not even a container issue
a111: Logged on 2018-03-26 14:28 asciilifeform: recall
the gc discussion . 'scripting lang is one where progy dun live long enuff
to need gc'
mircea_popescu: to be clear, i'm not for a second disputing
that such piles of lines of "code" are a scandal and an outrage before god. but i wish
to know what we're
to do.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform,
this is quite what i'm saying, a web publishing platform we will want, and phf is in a prime posityion
to appreciate
the gargantuan
task of "make it from prime principles", i
think.
mircea_popescu: because it is not directly evident
to me what portion of
the 162k loc (granted -- insane count) is due
to
the
tower of chairs arrangement.
mircea_popescu: will you go as far as
to say
that writing a general purpose scriptable webatron (apache) and a "separate" (notrly) db system (mysql) is
the wrong solution, and one should just write his blog software in c directly ?
mircea_popescu: phf, it also has
the advantage
that it works, and VERY well. which
to my knowledge is not
true of any other piece of web software (alf's complaints notwithstanding, phuctor emergent codebase may qualify)
☟︎ phf: mp-wp is 162093 loc, 6062 of which are containered gif/png. so it's not even
that base64 blobs are adding
to weight.
the codebase is massive
mircea_popescu: first step of any digestion is, gotta stuff it in
the gullet. enzymes afterwards.
mircea_popescu: how are
they
to be digested, if we deliberately make
the
tools we use unable
to grab
them ?
mircea_popescu: and we do have some such blobs in
the process, so far.
phf: i can obviously fix btcbase
to be more useful (i.e. continue
to aid
the patch exploration) in cases where a patch is big, but in general a 9mb patch seems
to go against
the whole fits in head
phf: right,
that was
the original idea, as evangelized by ascii. btcbase patch viewer is designed with
that idea in mind
a111: Logged on 2018-04-06 21:12 asciilifeform: a 500k-loc ( ignoring even for a moment
the far greater heft of 'modern' wonders ) c/cpp proggy is, for all intents and purposes, closed-source, even if every line is published, because it is quite impossible for anyone -- even author --
to get a proper grip on its behaviour space
mircea_popescu: is
the idea here
that code should never be
that long, basically ?
mircea_popescu: phf, part of
the reason i keep having
things sit on other
things is
to find out what
the fuck we need
to do.
phf: i'm not sure how practical
that makes patch page
though, it definitely doesn't open on my x60. i could perhaps introduce some split mode, where patch page only lists
the hunk filenames, and you need
to click on hunk
to see
the contents
a111: Logged on 2018-06-03 04:11 mircea_popescu: phf, what's
the limit ?
BingoBoingo: Dammit mod6 you scooped
the headline by minutes
mod6: lol shithub sale
to m$
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> BingoBoingo: smoosh footnotes down
to
the bottom of
the page pls << Will see what I can do about
this
mod6: ben_vulpes:
thanks for posting
the report for May.

lobbes: Best part is
that
the same cookie can be used for -any- download link from archive.today, and each cookie is good for 5 months, so I didn't even need
to automate
the scraping bit.
lobbes: but relatedly
to
the quote, I am pretty happy
to see
the auction business booming again :D
lobbes: On my
todo list is prop up an instance of
the
tmsr logbot on my pizarro rockchip and redo
the #eulora logs
to be fed from
that. I built
the #eulora log-o-tron back in 2015, and back
then I had just
typed 'ls' for
the first
time in my life, so I wager I can make
the whole process much saner
this
time around.
lobbes: ^^ reads, but
there is a ~1 min lag from when line is spit out until it hits lobbesbot's db (logs and bot are on separate boxen, and
the logs feed
the bot).

ave1: asciilifeform, also what is in
the build-ada.sh?
the last line on aarch64 should read: ../extra/build-tarballs.sh $PREFIX musl ada aarch64 x86_64
☟︎ ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: enjoying
the RE hunt posts
ave1: asciilifeform, could you post
the contents of ' build/build-x86_64-linux-musl/binutils-2.25.1/build1/config.log'?

mircea_popescu: and i have
this friend who's been working on making a portable computer
lobbesbot: asciilifeform:
The operation succeeded.
mod6: <+jurov> mod6: of course it has all of
them, most of
the balance predates
the fork. << ah, ok. well whatever makes
the most sense. if we can make some BTC out of it, great, if it's a huge pain, meh.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-30 19:40 asciilifeform: musltronic static elf does seem
to contain ~something~
that varies; looks
to be
the right size for
timestamp
turd. definitely on
the conveyor.
diana_coman: oh hey,
that's great news!
thanks for
the ping asciilifeform ; and
thanks ave1 for
the script; I'll add it
to
the list
to get on
the rockchip
