asciilifeform: i dun recall in what specific piece mp_en_viaje made this argument, but i buy it -- 'high quality www search was always illusion'. i.e. even if google et al did not actively fuck the outputs, even so 'pray tell mr babbage, if i feed into the machine a net fulla shit, will quality sites emerge from the search engine'
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-12#1922350 << it's detectably deader now than was even month ago. in the midst of heathen scutwork, had to extensively dig for eggogs, with google et al, and good 20-30% of the 'hits' are nao openly shannonized linkfarms with domains in the style of rfejgiigetzg.info etc and packed fulla spamola. i.e. full-bore reversion to state of art circa 1997 or so ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: spoiler, tabacon is the shittiest venue in the whole fucking country, i spent a total of ten minutes there watching them be us-level moronic. out of the ~four digit~ hours i spent in costa rican venues to date, that item is easily in the botom 10% of the list.

lobbes_field: This on the grounds that a) after reading the various cuntoo ebuild threads, it isn't clear to me that pythonisms are actually not needed and b) I actually know python/php, whereas I do not know cl
lobbes_field: Relatedly, I'm thinking that once I produce the mod_lisp vpatch, I may just leave the rest of the cl-www project to spyked, while I instead work on a 'python/php www kit. ☟︎

BingoBoingo: Forward looking Prelude to Forward looking statement: I plan to be finished producing it tomorrow afternoon. Weekly auctions are looking like the trick to put our fiat reserve to work on auctions, because with Bitcoin climbing its become a sort of albatross just passively sitting as an "Oh shit fund" and depreciating.
mp_en_viaje: aaaaand i fucking love it.

mp_en_viaje: i call this "starlet's slow march to adulthood"
mp_en_viaje: i confess the last time i mailed anything hillary clinton still looked like she could turn her life around and become the slutty hottie genetics were proposing all along.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i actually considered good old cash-in-mail. sticking point is that u.s. mail has become stupidly expensive -- sending even small flatpack (i.e. big enuff for newspaper+benjie) costs nao approx what wu costs
mp_en_viaje: list your problems, fucking enumerate their solutions, measure the costs, that's what the fuck rational activity even is! "doing weekly smaller auctions would improve participation and cut down friction costs and our fx risks, but it would introduce transfer costs -- western union / moneygram are like 20 bux per + nwo they get to build their own experimental scheme of my wot ; cash in mail has a failure rate, i dun
BingoBoingo: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-10#1922263 << I'll sit down at the math table and put together a more literate, forward looking dispatch. Thank you for carrying the stick. ☝︎
mp_en_viaje: well, the belarussians appreciate korean foods, what can i say. you can buy home-made kimchi from the market here.
diana_coman: that'd be more eastern than european, lol; I took it to mean "fermented"
diana_coman: heh; the pickled mushrooms thing is one where I gave in and made my own after 6 years+ of trying every possible thing they have in the west by that name
mp_en_viaje: maybe i should open a bottle of wine ? i wonder what's happening in days of our li^H^H^H^H^H game of hungers.
mp_en_viaje: i;m a stay at home master, the girls are out working the streets, perhaps ima start on a nice pasta in white sauce thing so it's ready by the time they're back home.
mp_en_viaje: my strong mood's kinda weak, tbh. i just opened the fridge and it smells so very eastern european, between the dozen types of pickled mushrooms... i even have kimchi! and smoked eel and whatnot.
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, yeah, i was thinking earlier, line length may actually be the best proxy available for group cohesion. back then, a lotta randos talking a lotta useless shit.
mp_en_viaje: ie, i'm trying to help you here, but i'm trying to help you as if you were an adult running an actual business.
mp_en_viaje: this "ima auction when i need, what i need, and god help me" approach clearly requires a much larger downstream market than you have available.
mp_en_viaje: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-09#1922203 << you could conceivably take the step of separating your need and your behaviour. sum up what you need per year, divide it by 52, take yourself whatever margin you feel like / judge adequate, and announce a regular weekly auction period. "they start at noon gmt each wed and close at 10am each thurs" or w/e such a thing. and then STICK TO IT!!!! unlike the "i publish on so a ☝︎

mp_en_viaje: speaking of, did someone have a complete ballas archive somewhere ? i'd like to re-reat that article.
mp_en_viaje: (compare and contrast ballas' "manhood card reissued" article, which obviously i can't find, with either <a href=http://trilema.com/2015/strategy-for-the-antisocial-struggle/>type A</a> or <a href=http://trilema.com/2017/the-universal-plan-for-wealth/>type B</a> actual manhood cards) ;
jurov: BingoBoingo: yes, and I meant to cancel it and open a new one
Mocky: I don't expect to have enough to bid on the datacenter auction for august but I do for sept
Mocky: i would have bid up to 12 in order to win the auction. but in any case two bidders are not much of a market when one presumably has the dollars today but only bids up to 2/3 and the other will bid up to 3/3 but is liek, 'can i bid today and pay 10 days hence?'
BingoBoingo: jurov: The problem I find myself in at this time, is that the time to spec the auction that way is when opening it.
jurov: When asked, I quoted market avg +5%, last year due to volatility actually ended up with less than 5%.
diana_coman: asciilifeform: that's not what I said.
mp_en_viaje: re the iffy above : if the gap is relatively narrow, you can very well tell the customer, "looksy, i dun so much care what you read on the internet, the reality is this and if you don't like it -- do something".
BingoBoingo: It was a wondering if the unfixable former was contributing to the later, but I'll leave that to its own pile.
lobbes_field: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-09#1922193 << it does not. Though I'm open to changing its behavior if it seems like a good idea ☝︎☟︎
BingoBoingo: This, or something similar is what I'm inclined to do next auction. Open it at a locally available rate + margin for some double digit dosiedo costs.
BingoBoingo: I will be making rounds this month seeing who are the conduits that keep the latest crop of Venezolana's granparents from starving in old country.
mp_en_viaje: i rather suspect we're just sitting on ass waiting for "things to happen", and have not in fact talked to EVERY SINGLE STREET TRADER / supermarket / etcetera.
mp_en_viaje: i somehow doubt the foregoing, seeing how i had no problem dealing in whatever fiats i felt like by the wheelbarrow not so long ago ; both through the chinese financial support of their supermarket trade and through local money exchangers in the streets etc.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-09 14:19 mp_en_viaje: we're talking 2/3 sorta margins here, i dunno if it's obvious, but merely 6% or so was enough for me to set the bozo bit on all of fucking norway.
BingoBoingo: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-09#1922162 << Last month I set the starting price on the big auction close to the reported rate and Jurov came through. This month I read noise in the channel about people wanting opportunities to buy more BTC, and I erred opening bidding on the parcel too low. ☝︎

BingoBoingo: That appears to have fixed it here too. Your select doesn't seem to be working atm. I can fix that for you really quick.
Mocky: i bet the images never migrated at all, only pointed to exiting img folder, hmm. i can replace it for now
Mocky: not sure why it's using img at all. yes i have it backed up
Mocky: I deleted everything in www and cp -a * ~/www/ from in wwwhabeeb and now images are broke in mocky.org and mockyhabeeb.com, which i expected to be unchanged
Mocky: i'm going to try it now, see what happens
BingoBoingo: Mocky: That would probably work. Otherwise I could change your apache vhost file to use the wwhabeeb directory as its root
Mocky: I was thinking I could just swap the contents of 'www' and 'wwwhabeeb'
Mocky: BingoBoingo: I have my blog posts migrated over to the mp-wp you set up for me on UY1, I want to switch over and have mocky.org served from there. What's a good way to do that?
Mocky: BingoBoingo: looks good. I'll update you on when these will be sent. 19th at the latest, maybe sooner
Mocky: if delivery on july 19 is reasonable i could bid
Mocky: if i had a couple more benjies i'd bid on that
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, naa, i'm in bed, gonna watch some 50s film.
asciilifeform: currently i suspect it is world's fastest emulator, for pc, of any machine whatsoever, but suspect can be made yet speedier (see comment re tlb entries) and elsewhere.
asciilifeform: ( for thread-completeness, the missing pieces afaik are : 1) handle speshulcases of 'div' and arithm. overflow trapping -- neither apparently used in linux, but presumably used ~somewhere~ 2) iron timer slave thread 3) nic 4) disk i/o 5) cuntoo port ! )
mp_en_viaje: so i was coincidentally watching old southparks with the girls, and an item in season 5 (2001, just before osama ended america) totally brought it all in focus.
bvt: mp_en_viaje: i will have a look if i can arrange it -- right now i have another travel scheduled around that time.
bvt: asciilifeform: http://bvt-trace.net/2019/07/todo-items-and-work-plan-jul2019/comment-page-1/#comment-23 re firefly; re kernel blocking, i expect that correctly implemented ring buffer would be immune from the concurrent access interference.

BingoBoingo: Anyways, before the Fat Forehead UniLeft coalition came to Power, Uruguay had two parties that mattered. The rural, nationalist blancos and the Urban, faggy, militant Colorados. I'd been following what happens with the Blancos because what they do is live. I'm catching up on the Colorado drama, because the only reason to take the speculum to old women is an earnest interest in being thorough.
mp_en_viaje: i confess i have nfi what youre saying.
BingoBoingo: The particular election rabbit hole I've just about completely explored is how "book club" party with an uncontested internal managed ~50 kilovotes for recently fired former commander in chief Guido Manini Ríos Stratta whose only firm platform position seems to be no "reform" of the military retirement system and softer position declaring "Army on streets is good"
mp_en_viaje: getting ready for a slashdot sale, i take it.
BingoBoingo: <mp_en_viaje> did that kiss of death of a pompous piece of shit ever come up with something ? forget about "coinlab not launching any product". has graham's derpy scam launched anything in the 5 or so years since anyone even looked to laugh at them ? << As far as I can tell they keep whipping the same cows. Dropbox, less frequently and AirBnB all the time.
mp_en_viaje: i had almost forgotten how spitefully retarded the romanian aspirational class actually is. i hope the usg zoo gets them all, i know of no worse set of shitheads on planet 3.
spyked: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/goXZ4/?raw=true <-- macroexpanded "hello world" example of cl-who. the second coad is what's executed when generating page; the first is what I have to write. the second indeed looks like salad to untrained eye, but otherwise maps 100% to cl-who constructs
spyked: i think it's safer to say that cl-who is a compiler from a particular set of s-expr into html. and looking at my (yet-again convoluted!) explanation, I can now distinctly remember that most debugging issues I've had were caused by not understanding the language.
spyked: mp_en_viaje, I'm confusing some things in my explanation, namely html (as outputted by that coad) and the S-expr-html representation in cl-who. the two are separate, and this meta-embedded is done with the latter and is used to separate code macro-processed by cl-who from code that executes when the page is generated.
mp_en_viaje: carry on unconcernedly ; i shall bumble in your general direction later about it.
mp_en_viaje: i think the problem here is mostly that i have nfi what i'm talking about.
