asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: written in browsercrud even. imagine what could be done on an ~actual~ comp
ben_vulpes: simulate a whole computer, shock, awe
asciilifeform: was thinking re: how 'moore's law', even in its heyday, did not substantially affect the inflation-adjusted COST of having a chip baked
asciilifeform: because, at least partly, the latter represents 'capital allocation', or as mircea_popescu's article put it, 'a thing we can't all be doing'
asciilifeform: (the nre cost is what i'm speaking of)
ben_vulpes: masks and shots were never terribly affected by moore's law itself
asciilifeform: nor the meat labour
asciilifeform: and if anything, the relevant tooling operations are now ~rarer~, more involved, costlier, the qualified folks - fewer.
ben_vulpes: subject of meat labor, i was slamming the 27-year old baristas some staffer was browsing on tinder last night and someone made the hilarious comment that bunnies are just as hot-swappable as baristas
ben_vulpes: "what it takes 6 months to train a barista from nothing, and 6 months to make a useful process tech!" ☟︎
asciilifeform: it takes ~16 yrs. to make a process tech.
asciilifeform: starting from zygote.
asciilifeform: if you think '6 mo' it is because someone did this work for you, for phree
ben_vulpes: i'm not even talking about the incubating
ben_vulpes: i'm talking about attention to detail, understanding wtf is happening, why the suit is a necessary thing, why the sticky pads at each door...
mod6: email got snarffed
ben_vulpes: but perhaps i only ever worked in environments of rarefied tech capabilities
ben_vulpes: we were making probes
ben_vulpes: and then there's the economic differences: barista can dream of what -- going on tour? owning their own coffee shop? writing a best selling memoir about...running a coffee shop and going on tour?
ben_vulpes: process tech at least can hold out hope they'll move into mgmt if they go to night school and get that b.s.
mod6: both emails snarffed.

mod6: 99996_2 is not a V release -- it is a 'build-bitcoind' script version.
mod6: and the difference between 99996_2 and 99995 build scripts is nothing more than updating the SHA512 for V-20160220.tar.gz and the name of the tarball.
mod6: but yah, anyway, the differences between V [v99996] and [v99995] are outlined in the above emails, and ya, the last one [beta 4] has a complete vdiff between the too.

mod6: <+jurov> mod6: trying under gentoo, v.pl complains "/.wot directory does not exist." << create your .wot in the same dir that you place the build script, create a log of your findings, and see what happens plz.
mircea_popescu: jurov noob just turned 1 adze + 30 threads into 40k.
mod6: <+asciilifeform> but the main thing is, i'm now inclined to agree with mircea_popescu : pressing 'to head X' is ill-specified. << ok but how should this work
ben_vulpes: mod6: see the rest of the thread. provide an explicit list of leaves to press.
jurov: mod6 did "cp -rp ~/.wot ." , same result
mod6: i can't do this.
mircea_popescu: uh
mod6: this is too much work for one guy.
jurov: it insists on having .wot in /
mod6: we need someone to maintain a V that makes sense.
mircea_popescu: mod6 take it easy for a second, will you ? nopanic!
pete_dushenski: mod6: breathe !
mod6: jurov: the changes to V look for .wot and .seals in the pwd.
jurov: mircea_popescu: why are you telling me that?
mod6: is your pwd / ?
mircea_popescu: i thought maybe you wanted to know where your cents went!
jurov: mod6 see the paste - no it is not.
mod6 looks
mod6: why in the world do I work on shit for a month, post betas all the way, and then we hit these issues now?
pete_dushenski: mod6: fwiw i'm endlessly appreciative of the work you've done thus far. you make noobing trb possible :)
mod6: jurov:
mod6: ok, so first, get rid of this crud
mircea_popescu: mod6 it's seriously how it happens. same thing with eulora and everything else.
mod6: "LC_ALL=C LANG=C"
mod6: then place .wot in "/data/juro/btc/V99995"
mod6: if it is, then there might be some sort of issue. i'll have to dig in to that. can you try maybe just clearing everything and trying again?
shinohai: mod6 the .gitignore comes from not removing the old directory
mod6: what old dir?
mod6: please start clean on this.
jurov: mod6 i have somalian locales, but with or without them it's the same result
mod6: new build dir, the whole 9
jurov: cleaned up eveything, there is now only .wot and build-bitcoind-V99995.sh, same result
shinohai: if you have a rotor dir and try to run script it fails.
mod6: yup
mod6: ok clean.

mircea_popescu: i ain't specifying no list of patches wtf.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes really ? i thought it was pretty fast for an actual test cycle ?
mod6: ben_vulpes: yah, and when you're testing in production, this can't be a thing.
mod6: this is the worst of all worlds.

ben_vulpes: and yes, things are getting faster.
mircea_popescu: mod6 im telling you , dunno if you read that log or not : you need a separate testing genesis.
mod6: until we finally get a test branch and so on and so forth, this stuff has to be ~perfect~ or we've got zip

ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: not a list of patches a list of *leaves*
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes no fucking list of anything. genesis item and wot.
mircea_popescu: wtf!
ben_vulpes: "i want everything necessary for malleus and db locks"
mircea_popescu: i never said that.
ben_vulpes: did i say that you did?!
mircea_popescu: who are you quoting then ? or what is that ?
phf: asciilifeform said that
ben_vulpes: what one might say to a V implementation.
mircea_popescu: one who is broken in the head may say that.
mircea_popescu: the only sane thing to say to V is "i want the bitcoin as these gentlement think it is best "
ben_vulpes: then press to a release patch, fin.
ben_vulpes: what you and i need from V diverge.
mircea_popescu: does what i and you need from a hammer also diverge ?
ben_vulpes: unless you expect it to be only and ever a release tool and not a tool for people actually working on the thing to use in their workflow.
mircea_popescu: it seems somewhat improbable that you'll be using your penis for both making children and doing your plumbing.
ben_vulpes: you - want to sink nails. i want to pull them out occasionally.
mircea_popescu: but in this i may be wrong.
ben_vulpes: perhaps i am laboring under the misapprehension that v should be useful for something other than putting software on mircea_popescu's box
mircea_popescu: should bitcoin also be useful for something more other than ~dependably~ keeping track of moneyz ?
mircea_popescu: perhaps... to help african children ? or other groups dear to our hearts ?
ben_vulpes: *i* want to press specified patch sets without doing so by hand.
mircea_popescu: good! fine!
mircea_popescu: and you want emacs to i dunno what ! who's keepin ya!
ben_vulpes: you will get a release patch and you will press to it. there is your hammer.
ben_vulpes: there is the "bitcoin as these gentlemen"
mircea_popescu: i don't like you enough to prefer you over the exactly equivalent windows release process just because your name is ben vulpes not bill gates.
mircea_popescu: the idea is to have diverse coder process, and a lot of fuckign toi land trouble on tghe coders, for maximal output quality.\ ☟︎
mod6: jurov: this is what i'm seeing on my gentoo fwiw: http://dpaste.com/37164CX.txt
assbot: ... ( http://bit.ly/1SIg6LM )
mircea_popescu: the idea is exctly NOT to have coder comfort and sanity at the expense of "this is the user's script"
mod6: im not sure why yours is saying that.
jurov: mod6 `pwd` returns nothing on my machine /o\
mod6: then your machine is hosed.
mircea_popescu: jurov that's a new one ?!
ben_vulpes: how is this "user's script" not precisely the windows release?
mod6: ok, i haven't eaten in like nearly 2 days. so im gonn walk away and get a bite.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes that's what i said.
mircea_popescu realises that the enthusiastic approval was merely intellectual, and code monkey habits will die fucking hard in the best intended of people. o brother, what we have before us.
ben_vulpes: try like i'm five, the windows comparison is shorting me out
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i've been sitting here trying to get this in saner terms.
mircea_popescu: let's use this angle : do you understand what i mean in that ancient article about how coherence in the wot is the worst attack on the wot ?
mircea_popescu: which is why things such as "official best policy for X" never even got to the discussion phase, as i've always torpedoed it ?
ben_vulpes: from 'how the wot is attacked'?
mircea_popescu: yes.
ben_vulpes: so bear with me: how is 'v' not groupthink incarnate?
mircea_popescu: your v apparently is. hence my windoes comment.
mircea_popescu: but V itself is not, at all.
ben_vulpes is hit by a particularly unpleasant revelatory wave
mircea_popescu: hence it's not as much what we "want" from our tools per se. merely what we expect them to be
mircea_popescu: ie, it's easy to pick on alf about his enamourement with the mental-usg, mostly because he's so "naively" open and upfront about it.
mircea_popescu: but the insanity is found in all heads.
mircea_popescu: and subtle - which is to say just subtle enough to avoid detection by the head it sits in.
ben_vulpes: i should simply expect misery from you every time i bring up the topic of how a v might work then?
mircea_popescu: in any case - v, as any new coin, has to get diversely seeded so it may survive, which is the scary step before us right now.
mircea_popescu: mno, ideally we'll discuss this to the point we are happily getting it
mircea_popescu: but understand that in any perspective, there's something fundamentally broken with telling V "press me this list of nodes". conceivably it may be useful as a graph-debugging tool, but it is not a v-ism.
mircea_popescu: it is in fact the llvm-ing of the v.
ben_vulpes fully adrift now, without even a sun to tell east from west
mircea_popescu: ;/
ben_vulpes: the turning of a compiler which should simply ingest code and shit elfs into a developer-centric tool?
ben_vulpes: 'code monkey' excuse me
mircea_popescu: mno. the enveloping of a tool which by its functioning and nature guarantees a free world into a sufficient wall so as to be safely operated by the opposite.
mircea_popescu: i understand that the pressure to say "oh it's the weekend can turn xcode off" EVERY SINGLE FUCKING WEEK is well driven psychologically.
ben_vulpes: i am not well versed enough in the history of gcc and llvm to understand this.
mircea_popescu: do understand that it is simply not acceptable in new things.

mircea_popescu: actually ben_vulpes it occurs to me, maybe the following description of final state is helpful :
ben_vulpes: i'm still trying to cook up a syllogism over here
mircea_popescu: moe finds bitcoin in 2056, long after the republic prevailed, through his gf at the time. he steals her script, copies her .wot directory and now has a node! ☟︎☟︎
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 68650 @ 0.00056839 = 39.02 BTC [+]
mircea_popescu: he decides he wants to add three lines of code to bitcoin. what HE does, in republican world, is write those lines of code, sign them, add his own sig in the wot and voila.
mircea_popescu: the girl, upon visiting, notices this, likes the functionality, and either a) signs herself or b) imports his sig in her wot.
mircea_popescu: depends how good the fucking was. a) is more discrete.
mircea_popescu: people in the senate floor of the most serene republic notice the silly things the kids are doing in bed these days and lo! ben_vulpes signs it, which makes that snipped suddenly go into a bunch of servers. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: or maybe phf rebases it into a change of his and signs that.
mircea_popescu: CONTRARY to this sane process, in the empire alt-universe, may it piss in its own eyes,
mircea_popescu: guy tries to find the "source of power" by doing inane wikipedia-level shit, then tries to make friends with the people and put his fucking code in, to FORCE it upon the fucking userbase.
mircea_popescu: now : list of nodes necessarily maintains some sort of portion of alt-universe.
mircea_popescu: and i really don't want any of it to survive.

assbot: Logged on 20-02-2016 23:33:14; asciilifeform: to the point where i cannot even release a patch because wtf, against ~what~ do i patch
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: lol no i do not
mircea_popescu: you don't "release" a patch. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: fucking sign whatever you want to run, if people like it they'll run it and if not whatevs.
mircea_popescu: this whole "we are developers herp" thing is prb not trb.
ben_vulpes: but aha i do recall that mjr and pgp were in the same room a few times
mircea_popescu: and i would very much like it be the case that some folks here actually want to specifically trbn
mircea_popescu: rather than "let's try prb with better people, it'll work this time"
mircea_popescu: it didn't work for prb, it didn't work for anything, including scbl and xml/html.
asciilifeform: its a people difference though
asciilifeform: not machine
mircea_popescu: o brother.
mircea_popescu: good people in specific circumstances produce usg no matter what they individually may choose.
mircea_popescu: take them out of that swamp already.
asciilifeform: i see no evidence for this.
asciilifeform: their ~children~ usg, yes
mircea_popescu: sigh.
