mod6: In other news,
this cold of mine has been really persisting
the last 5 days. Ugh.
mod6: Adding ~5 BTC
to our balance sheet sounds great
to me.
mod6: fair enough. I was just
trying
to get a mental idea of where it's at. I don't activly
track BCH or BTG. We'll see what ben_vulpes has
to say.
jurov: OK,
the rate will be different because it will
take some
time (i'm using home-patched electrum
to generate
the
txen)
mod6: So yeah, I'm in
to sell
those
two symbols into BTC.
mod6: jurov:
thank's for
the Q. I'm fine with liquidation. ben_vulpes, agree/disagree?
☟︎ jurov: mod6: ben_vulpes: perhaps you noticed
the foundation has some bitcoin cash/gold. liquidate?
☟︎ lobbesbot: BingoBoingo:
The operation succeeded.
spyked: anyway, /me finds
the
tv format increasingly repetitive and hard
to follow. last
thing I saw was cowboy bebop, and found about a
third of it boring.
the other
two
thirds were worth it
though, I can now say I've seen most
tv anime.
spyked: hm didn't showgirls have
the guy from
twin peaks/blue velvet/other lynch movies? kyle maclachlan.
mircea_popescu: but yes,
that's how
the dork ended up in showgirls, notwithstanding he evidently didn't belong
there at all.
spyked: hm. hbo also had a series with boobage starring
the guy from x-files, forgot his name. but
that was mid-90s I
think?
mircea_popescu: ever so slightly less fucktarded (american) and possibly
the closest esltards ever got
to european
tv. even had boobs now and again!
spyked: with
telly savalas aka kojak (which was also popular on romanian
tv in
the early 90s)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: this was a
tv show on hbo in
the late 80s (at
the
time hbo was a perfectly respectable premium cable channel, far from
the shitpile it has degenerated into after
the end of america).
spyked: among other horror stuff spyked has seen as a youngun is "horror express" (1972).
the rolling eyeball
thing completely creeped me out, gotta rewatch
that sometime.
spyked: mircea_popescu, dun
think I've seen
that one either. first somewhat "creepy" movie I've seen was
Twin Peaks cca 1992. but not creepy in
the horror sense, and I was 4yo at
the
time, didn't get much of what was happening.
mircea_popescu: spyked, anyway, i wouldn't say it's a good movie. run of
the mill 80s
tv camp, with vampires and whatnot. "tales from
the crypt" fare, if you recall
that show.
mircea_popescu: amusingly enough, a pre-prepared !!v string for payment of a fixed amt is a de-facto reimplementation of...
the banknote.
spyked: I won't dwell on it
too much
though. could in principle also end up with both implementations and let operator choose via Common Lisp's *features*... if
this doesn't mess up
the code
too much.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-26 15:02 mircea_popescu: re
the voicing approach :
the above is fine.
the alternative, where you keep a dedicated key on
the bot, is also fine.
the damage it can do is very limited (what, spend money it doesn't have ? rate people ?) and
the upside is
that you get
to find out about possible attacks. neither method is wrong or anything.
spyked:
http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-26#1819113 <-- I personally like
trinque's proposal because it enforces a certain level of hygiene and because it doesn't require calling gpg from lisp. but I'm more curious about what other bot operators have
to say about it. so even if for example
the poker bot needs
to handle funds into its own deedbot wallet, I'm curious whether
this semi-manual scheme would be feasible.
☝︎☟︎ spyked: mircea_popescu, didn't see it. but
there don't seem
to be any romanian names in
the cast, so wtf. made me curious, adding it
to
the list.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-27 15:06 mircea_popescu: incidentally, if anyone can explain wtf selection dun work on pages, i'd be
thankful
mircea_popescu: there was
this "freedom figther" dude
that meanwhile became a "dangerous criminal" because
the "evil government" swtiched sides and is now pantsuit-sponsored
mircea_popescu: aaand in other lmao, "in 2008
the Ugandan army invaded
the DRC in search for
the LRA in Operation Lightning
Thunder."
lobbes: interesting, I had no idea. I only knew of Cape Verde, Azores, and of course Portugal (which I wrote off due
to: island, island, nato)
lobbes has since settled for simply being able
to -read- das Deutsch and has begun
trying
to learn el Español for practical matters (started with Portuguese only
to realize..
that only leaves one with Brazil as a potential escape destination vs.
the ~entirety of central/south america)
a111: Logged on 2018-03-29 16:50 mircea_popescu: lobbes austria is in
the wrong. you buy cheap young hussies generally. romania-czech-slovakia-slovenia-serbia etc,
the periphery of
the empire. not austria (or hungary),
the fucking center of it
mircea_popescu: incidentally, if anyone can explain wtf selection dun work on pages, i'd be

BingoBoingo: But you do have
to surround yourself with
the language. It doesn't matter if one or a handful of charitable ears understand you, you have
to get pronunciation from crashing into everyday
tasks of living.
a111: Logged on 2018-05-27 01:47 mircea_popescu: not just
theory, either. afaik it's how BingoBoingo learned spanish.
diana_coman: lobbes, re php 7.2 I'm
totally lost as
to what new (as opposed
to old) mess it brings in
esthlos: oh I should add,
the vast majority of
time of
the proggy is spent calling gpg. would be nice
to replace
that
turd
esthlos: anyway,
think its bedtime. defpackage
tomorrow
esthlos: though wrt
the pentesting, I would be grateful for any flaws found
trinque: what's
this contents
thing, emacsism?
esthlos: heh,
there was some attempted sarcasm
there
trinque: eh, I wouldn't rely on him for
that. he's yet
to show any signs he's pressed a
trb himself using
the previous V
trinque: get
the defpackage in
there,
test,
then when you're satisfied, post a genesis patch on your blog.
esthlos: so, what's
the path from here?
trinque: well, seems like
this is pretty close
to done!
esthlos: have
to change
the make-pathname of make-temp-dir back btw, because sbcl barfs
trinque: with
those changes I was able
to press
trb with a ccl-built binary
trinque: without
the format, of course.

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-23#1817293 << i started writing a lispy make-temp-directory but
the implementation is not particularly elegant (C concerns are at odds with lisp concerns), you can pouch
the ccl bits
though. i'm not sure if
there's a better way
to do errno handling, without relying on private ccl symbols
trinque: I don't
think %GET-ERRNO does what it seems. mkdtemp returns a null pointer on error, proper pointer otherwise, and I'm seeing
that change depending on whether e.g.
there's enough X in
the pattern.
esthlos: make-temp-dir is still setting errno
to -38. only my snippet was ill-formed
esthlos: I'm looking into
the expansion of ccl:with-cstrs
to see why it's #_mkdtemp might raise an error
trinque: also
the code you pasted had a #_mkdtemp wrapped in a #_mkdtemp ?
trinque: well, expand
the with-cstrs macro and see if it does what you assume
esthlos: yep, and
that's causing
the error I believe
esthlos: as in (progn (#_mkdtemp (ccl:with-cstrs ((x "/tmp/fooXXXXXX")) (#_mkdtemp x))) (format
t "~a" (ccl::%GET-ERRNO)))
esthlos: can you check
the errno with (ccl::%GET-ERRNO) ?
trinque: appears
to work, i.e. (#_mkdtemp (ccl::make-cstring "/tmp/fooXXXXXX"))
trinque: yep, was over here
trying
to jam it in with make-cstring
trinque: "There's no supported way
to directly pass lisp data
to foreign functions: scalar lisp data must be coerced
to an equivalent foreign representation, and lisp arrays (notably strings) must be copied
to non-GCed memory." << right
there in
the
https://ccl.clozure.com/manual/chapter13.2.html trinque: appears
to want some C
type
there as
the argument, which makes sense. I wouldn't know how
to provide
that, just yet.
esthlos: err, #_mkdtemp sets errno
to -38
esthlos: sorry, don't mean CCL::%ERRNO-DISP is causing
the
trouble. CCL::%ERRNO-DISP is setting errno
to -38, even
though it seems
to successfully create
the directory
esthlos: I found
the piece of code causing
the
trouble
trinque: esthlos: I wager neither of us knows how
to use
that ffi macro correctly. doing some reading.
esthlos: see
the different error messages? I find it odd
esthlos: ah nevermind, I
thought I remembered
this working
esthlos: well,
try
this out: load in
the file from a ccl repl, run make-wot, back out of
the failure, and run wot again
trinque: esthlos: yep, I just got
to
the keyboard. iirc
there was something wrong with ccl in regards
to keychain path?

☟︎ mircea_popescu: not just
theory, either. afaik it's how BingoBoingo learned spanish.
☟︎ esthlos: also mircea_popescu , I'm curious what your formula for learning new languages is; or
to be more precise, what your advice is
to an esltard
trying
to not be so
tarded
esthlos: funny,
they conjure literal beings of pure energy
mircea_popescu: i suppose
the proper
term is "new age". funny how
that principal designation of pantsuit idiocy during
the 80s disappeared once
the soviets gave in.
esthlos: trinque: any
time
to look at
the new vtron?
the currently outstanding issues I'm aware of are 1. need
to reintroduce a defpackage; 2. weirdness with ccl and building
the gpg keychain
esthlos: most admirable physicists I've encountered feel ~
the same. still, idea secudes me from
time
to
time
