assbot: Logged on 28-04-2015 22:12:44; trinque: I have to run, dunno what hoon is but I'll see if I can find info on it
asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> i am still awaiting your gentoo canonical << not even objecting to the linux flavour of that box, but to the cpanel idiocy
asciilifeform: it poisons every single config on the box, and assumes php
mircea_popescu: but the python stuff you ran into is pure linux,
mircea_popescu: the misplaced apache is pure linux
mircea_popescu: etc.
asciilifeform: the requiring apache (and not just any, but cpanel's custom) is cpanelism
mircea_popescu: except it doesn't require apache to run a script
mircea_popescu: you can just have your python run off cron, and dump stuff into mysql
mircea_popescu: then fish it out for web display
asciilifeform: mno. need to serve some static pgs
mircea_popescu: so create them as files
asciilifeform: it has to be nginx or a (human) apache
mircea_popescu: apache will serve them if in the right directories
asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> you can just have your python run off cron << how both will restart synchronized ?
asciilifeform: this is ludicrous
mircea_popescu: wut ?
asciilifeform: i want the two to restart together
asciilifeform: and i want -one- log
mircea_popescu: the wto who
asciilifeform: static and dynamic content servers
asciilifeform: normally this is achieved by having apache (or nginx) pass through to, e.g., python
mircea_popescu: you want a python script to be executed on page load ?
asciilifeform: it isn't a script
asciilifeform: it's a continuous process
asciilifeform: that serves up http
asciilifeform: read the src if interested (under the user i created)
asciilifeform: simplest possible thing
mircea_popescu: so you have your own web server written in python ? ☟︎
asciilifeform: not own, l0l
mircea_popescu: move cpanel's apache to a diff port, and allocate 80 to yours.
asciilifeform: the whole thing was written in about a day, if you recall, in a mighty hurry
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: again i don't want python serving up statics
asciilifeform: because it is ludicrous
mircea_popescu: then have python drop the statics in /home/whatever and apache will automagically serve them ?
asciilifeform: would like to run the fucking app without changes
asciilifeform: like normal people.
asciilifeform: on normal computer.
mircea_popescu: cpanel has nothing to do with this.
asciilifeform: normal people can get mod_wsgi if they want it.
asciilifeform: cpanel - no.
asciilifeform: normal people can get -pure- nginx
asciilifeform: cpanel - again, no
mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> move cpanel's apache to a diff port, and allocate 80 to yours. <
asciilifeform: and apache still runs, eats cycles for fuck knows what
mircea_popescu: and if python.h fails, you prolly don't have th epaths set up right, it'll fai lthe same with or without some derpy package manager.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well actually it wouldn't run, especially if you kill that port in firewall.
mircea_popescu: but you can stop the service in any case.
asciilifeform: still end up with cpanelism autogenned crapolade in every single fucking thing in /etc
asciilifeform: hence the traditional 'cpanel is not removable' dictum
mircea_popescu shrugs
mircea_popescu: linux doesn't work. any of it. picking some random idiocy to make an example of is futile.
mircea_popescu: gentoo is a piece of shit. debian is a piece of shit. centos is a piece of shit.
mircea_popescu: apache is a piece of shiot. so is nginx. so is everytrhiong else. ☟︎
asciilifeform genuinely wonders if mircea_popescu ever runs any www gadget that isn't a php bloggatron
mircea_popescu: nothing works, everything';s made by idiots.
mircea_popescu: nope. why would i even bother with www except for a blog
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu is almost but not entirely right. we are, for instance, presently speaking through an ancient atlantian tech that sorta works.
mircea_popescu: oh get the fuck out. ircd ? THIS works ?
asciilifeform: i said 'sorta worx'
mircea_popescu: SO DOES EVERYTHING ELSE!!!!
asciilifeform: l0l
mircea_popescu: foss, the wonderful world of 90%
mircea_popescu: "we almost did a job!!1"
mircea_popescu: this, btw, is my constraint. fuck "fits in head", i dun care.
mircea_popescu: DO.THEWHOLE.JOB.
asciilifeform: 'fits in head' is how you actually -know- that x 'did whole job'
asciilifeform: anything else - is conjecture.
mircea_popescu: indeed.
asciilifeform: it is also how you know that x did -nothing but- whole job.
asciilifeform: so 'fits in head' is 'part of a balanced diet' with 'does whole job' (otherwise brick 'fits in head')
mircea_popescu: aham.
mircea_popescu: kinda why i'm discovering all i really like off unix these days is like... curl. grep.
asciilifeform: eh the only good part of unix is |
mircea_popescu: somethinglikethat.
mircea_popescu: and tee.
asciilifeform: and good old tr

pete_dushenski: "Orioles will play Wednesday's game vs White Sox with NO audience in the stands." << heh. one for BingoBoingo.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: At least Ferguson is decently removed from the St Louis city center
pete_dushenski: eh. st louis could use a kick in the pants from what i hear.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: In which manner?
asciilifeform: how the everliving fuck is cpanel used with anything other than php/static wwwtron
mircea_popescu: jurov what is ?
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo mainly in terms of st louis being known for murders and crimes, and that a proper boiling over of the tensions between police and citizens could bring about positive resolution, whoever 'wins'
mircea_popescu: lol @the prostitution=alimony thing.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Eh, There's a balance.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo a balance between what ?
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I think some hmility was imposed when some of the black kids got too amped up on "kill whitey" and started going after Bosnians. Seems they learned better than to do that within a month or so.
mircea_popescu: "Instantly, I knew I was walking into a trap. I looked around, half hoping for a hug or some assurance that everything was going to be okay"
mircea_popescu: lol this derp
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: crime/not crime in stl
asciilifeform: i can't even config a fucking apache vhost on this thing.
asciilifeform: and apparently neither can anyone else
mircea_popescu: ahhh
mircea_popescu: so basically... cpanel is super-security. even if malware expert gets root... what good is it ? :D
asciilifeform: can't go far with exploded head.

pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo bosnians being yugoslavia vets or... ?
asciilifeform: 'proceeding from informal to formal by formal means' (TM)
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo and where's ferguson at these days ? i haven't heard much out of there recently.
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Largely refugees came over in the 1990's colonized south city. The generation of Bosnians being targeted were largely the kids... The older ones seemed very unhappy about that...
pete_dushenski: in terms of street violence, dead cops, local politics.
BingoBoingo: Ferguson's been mostly tamed by Sharptoon and other FBI folk
pete_dushenski: ah ok
BingoBoingo: Back to just the normal shootings, police retreated, longtime businesses closing up and leaving
pete_dushenski: hm rough.
mircea_popescu: they're moving online ?
pete_dushenski: cities like ferguson would be best served by a fleet of amazon delivery drones.
pete_dushenski: dropping packages ordered online and heading back to homebase in the country far, far away
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i wasted many hours and actually moved phuctor to that thing, and it runs. just can't be reached from anywhere outside of box per se, aha.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform well, is it at least crunching the numbers ?
asciilifeform: would, if there were any
mircea_popescu: i thought we had a million key db at some point ?
asciilifeform: aha
mircea_popescu: what, your scp's broken ?
asciilifeform: i'm not dealing with syncing keys from the old install back into this one
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Mostly moving to retirement
asciilifeform: (which is what i'd have to do if they were to be used simultaneously)
mircea_popescu: so then what does this do ?
asciilifeform: sit there sadly (tm)
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I think you underestimate the potential drone casualties
asciilifeform: because box lacks normal apache
mircea_popescu: aha. well ok. did you break it in the process ?
asciilifeform: break in what sense
mircea_popescu: in the sense that is it still usable as a cpanel box or will i have to have it reflushed.
asciilifeform: can be used
asciilifeform: login - same
mircea_popescu: aite
BingoBoingo starting to believe that Stan's gentoo build is so far from normal "linux" might as well be called Stannix nao
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: it is perfectly normal
mircea_popescu: a further three day experiment in the "linux is worthless and broadly unusable" meme. i guess it needed more documentation.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo not in the slightest. just that drones are cheaper than people. certainly with the us legal system such as it is. see mp's piece on 'how to go out in a blaze of glory'
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Normal in terms of distance from your box to median boxen
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: again, entirely normal
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: phuctor, for instance, presently runs on 'the world's worst hoster', aws

BingoBoingo: When did AWS overtake Godaddy.com for that honor?
asciilifeform: when opened doors ?
asciilifeform: (charges by cpu cycle)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform apparently not the worst.
mircea_popescu: the only worse alternative to the worlds 2nd most common hoster seems to be... the world's MOST common.
mircea_popescu: ya know ?

williamdunne: Heh? AWS worse than GoDaddy?

mircea_popescu: mike_c sounds like secret overflow eh.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform story of my lyf.
mircea_popescu: decimation that is not why large corporations exist. large corporations exist because it is cheaper for the socialist state to interact with larger items than with smaller items.
BingoBoingo: "burndown" is the only solution to certain problems in horticulture
decimation: he does hypothesize that later
mircea_popescu: that's why 100 employers of 10 employees each need a pile of paperwork from city hall, whereas one employer of 1000 employees gets free money from city hall
decimation: "I do think that government often tilts the scale in favor of large organizations. The high fixed cost of regulatory compliance is one factor. Government has been a key customer in industries like aerospace, information technology, and finance, and the fixed costs of selling to government are very high, because of all of the hoops that you have to jump through."
mircea_popescu: hoops my foot.
mircea_popescu: blackwater "sold to the goverment" by jumpiong through the following hoops : "if you send anyone to investigate us, we'll just kill them"
mircea_popescu: haliburton didn't even bother, just "lost" a trillion.
decimation: yeah, good point, this
mircea_popescu: if you were going to be raped,
decimation: the corruption in selling physical goods to usg is nowhere near the size of the corruption of 'selling services'
mircea_popescu: would you prefer being raped by ten thousand slimy worms
mircea_popescu: or by a bull ?
decimation: 1024 chickens?
mircea_popescu: governments everywhere always prefer the bull in that equation. tho their ideal is a herd of goats.
mircea_popescu: apparently easier to hallucinate "a relationship" with the bull.
decimation: well, the government believes they can make the bull like them
mircea_popescu: eeexactly.

trinque: you lispfolk can rip the relational database from my dead hands
gabriel_laddel: trinque: ummm
trinque: it's fine for pulling levers on my database, but that's it
gabriel_laddel: trinque: one can just query over ASTs
gabriel_laddel: like, say that I want to find all javascript functions with 3 arguments
trinque: you can have an invalid AST in lisp, in terms of your grammar; no one stops you from making any pile of cons cells
gabriel_laddel: correct
trinque: if I represent a grammar in SQL tables you cannot fuck it up
gabriel_laddel: hmmm.
trinque: any atomic alteration of the state of it cannot be wrong
trinque: I can bitch slap your mistakes with constraints and the very structure of my schema
trinque: that is what I love about it

Adlai: put more constructively: does your constraint grammer allow for extending itself?
trinque: sure, but specifically how
gabriel_laddel: ^ ding ding ding
trinque: nah hold on
gabriel_laddel: as for the js ast
trinque: what's meant by that
gabriel_laddel: (filter (lambda (l) (and (eq :function (car l)) (= 3 (length (nth 2 l))))) (js-ast #P"~/somejsfile.js"))

Adlai: or "who me, write my own code? nah"
Adlai: "fetch me your trainedest monkeys!"
gabriel_laddel: I'd like to clarify that what I'm finding appaling here is the huge amount of effort spent generating syntatically correct strings.
trinque: that's not the purpose of it at all.
gabriel_laddel: Sure, even in sexprs you have a 'grammer' you might want to check
gabriel_laddel: the purpose isn't what I'm horrified by
trinque: how in lips could you take the ast of a view against one table
trinque: consider the ast of an operation to change the table
trinque: and derive the view that will apply to the new table
trinque: even if you pivoted one into two
trinque: being able to reflect and consider things as sets, not the tree, is valuable
trinque: lips, lol
gabriel_laddel: I have to check that I know what these terms mean before I respond. one sec
Adlai: back in the old days, there was no asdf:load-system... everything consisted of passing magic dispatch tokens to asdf:operate
Adlai: people became lazy... everything changed once the bitrot nation attacked
gabriel_laddel: ha
Adlai: ultimately, rdbms magic does NOT fits in heads
trinque: it's not magic at all
trinque: it's set logic
gabriel_laddel: trinque: could you rephrase "take the ast of a view against one table"
trinque: which amounts to an iteration over one or more lists with an if statement
Adlai: you can't "cat fixup >> database.sql"
trinque: other such logic, producing a result
gabriel_laddel: btw, one can trivially deal with sexpr 'ASTs' as sets
trinque: gabriel_laddel: asumming the AST is represented as a set of tables with foreign key relationships, each table representing a production rule in the grammar
gabriel_laddel: hahahahahahahhaa
gabriel_laddel: oh my fucking god
trinque: you have a childish way of speaking
gabriel_laddel is a child :/
trinque: well grow the fuck up, and discuss ideas like a man.
gabriel_laddel: kk, I'm not going anywhere
trinque: if I discovered a way to do something lispy in a non-lisp environment, do you think this'd be the first time I've done this?
gabriel_laddel: trinque: done what exactly?
trinque: so like, why do you think we put ASTs in the database?
trinque: no reason?
gabriel_laddel: I've no idea why you did, but am assuming you've got some reason why
trinque: so then from what position do you proclaim lisp?
gabriel_laddel: because it is inescapable
gabriel_laddel: well, s-expressions are at least
trinque: I'm not seeing the incompatibility of the things
gabriel_laddel: "lisp", like "lispy" is an ill-defined idea.
trinque: list of lists
trinque: there you go, now fucking iterate over two of them and filter by respective conditional expressions
trinque: pop the result into one new list
trinque: now worry about schema at appropriate places and you've got relational algebra
trinque: doesn't need a fucking postgresql
gabriel_laddel: agreed
gabriel_laddel: everything is a "list of lists" or a "tree" when you get down to it (in the compiler - though yes, you can go directly stack machine).
trinque: certainly
gabriel_laddel: but sexprs are nice because they're easy to parse.
gabriel_laddel: anyone /can/ add meta-programming to whatever language they want.
gabriel_laddel: but you'll end up like paul phillips
gabriel_laddel: because parsing is a terribly boring (and totally unnecessary) task.
gabriel_laddel: btw, I'm still putting together a model of what exactly it is you've done so that I can discuss this with you using your vocabulary...
gabriel_laddel: "how in lips could you take the ast of a view against one table" << This ends up being just hacking at sexprs with the full language at your disposal.
gabriel_laddel: you might get a "relational algebra"
trinque: and if one of your hacks fucks up the logic of what it is to be a "whatever's in that list" ?
trinque: the idea is that your lisp code is always right, hence the data is right
gabriel_laddel: nope
trinque: whereas I assume everything's hell and hopefully the database will keep it all coherent
trinque: because a printer could fellate itself or linux could grow cancer and fill a disk
trinque: the database if told as much as is known about the data you want to represent, wont let you fuck it up
gabriel_laddel: I can do the same thing if I want.
gabriel_laddel: you just end up writing a predicate to see that the information you're manipulating is (every #'string ...) or whatever
trinque: which amounts to building a database in to your thing, yeah?
gabriel_laddel: Well, the lines get blurry.
gabriel_laddel: But yes.

gabriel_laddel: So, in your model of computing you get to work with incomplete languages in the "data model" and when generating "views". While this does provide defaults, when hacking lisp you always have the full language at your disposal.
BingoBoingo: Quick question... There's no macguffin the plot can use to out BTC BTC is there...
gabriel_laddel: Also, you don't have to parse anything, or have "generator rules" or whatever, which cuts out a lot of the complexity that you get when doing something like what you've done.

gabriel_laddel: I'm simply of the opinion that our current platform (irc) is too barbaric and doesn't force enough shared context upon us to do anything interesting. Any sort of shared vision or whatever gets watered down into discussions like the above. ☟︎
gabriel_laddel: Without a shared language the logs will end up in endless cycles of the above.
BingoBoingo: gabriel_laddel: What makes you sure we have a shared platform, or that individuals here choose platforms for themselves singularly?
BingoBoingo: I doubt severely shared languages are a thing
gabriel_laddel: perhaps that was phrased poorly.
gabriel_laddel: The preceding discussion was largely myself and trinque learning the others vocabulary.
trinque: I think the guy just means talking in person it is much easier to understand what's meant by the other.
trinque: yeah that
gabriel_laddel: I don't think "in person" has much to do with it.

Getting C programmers to understand that they cause the computer to do less than minimum is intractable. They would not /use/ C if they understood this point, so if you actually cause them to understand it in the course of a discussion, you will only

People are pretty good at detecting that this is a likely outcome of thinking, and it takes conscious effort to brace yourself and get through such experiences.

mircea_popescu: i was ftr not proposing this was a thing at any point in the past.
jurov: i don't get you then at all
mircea_popescu: the problem here is that we're regressing to the past (srsly, the varnish adventure is so reminiscent of "dos utilities" scene it bleeds) but with much more powerful tools and with much more societal dependency on them.
mircea_popescu: it is, if you wish, like if bitcoin were to take over and everyone depended on it in 2065, but then for some reason people started moving back to 0.5.3 codebase.
mircea_popescu: it might have been ok for 50 years ago, when the most damage that it could do was someone losing his retarded tripod poems

davout: just my two cents
mircea_popescu: i would definitely read the essay discussing the merits of either side. i just realised i actually don't grok this shit.

jurov: mod6 i can explain, too. to support different configurations for DNS/users/whatever resolving without glibc recompilation and without interprocess communication
jurov: the libnss was done as binary plugin to glibc
jurov: and whole mechanism is non-optional
mod6: ok maybe that's the part I was missing - how libnss is somehow tied to glibc.
jurov: thus truly statical compilation of glibc is impossbile
mod6: so libnss is dynamically compiled and built/linked to glibc, and can not be avoided? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: you can't go "oh i don't use libnss anyway". you probably are. ☟︎
