mircea_popescu: might be the most revolting thing i ever saw.
asciilifeform: what, some dude fucking a ??? behind a dumpster ?
asciilifeform: could be a pile of rags.
asciilifeform: or maybe not. but not clear that it is a chick.

mircea_popescu: trinque pete_dushenski : !!subscribe missing from your docs eh. ☟︎
trinque: updated.
mircea_popescu: an' bot spec published, lemme know
mircea_popescu: esp if a specific sexpr format should be included there.
trinque: ah I was just quoting that
asciilifeform: this is pretty spiffy
trinque: we could go as wild as grammar for commands/args
asciilifeform: !~step 99
jhvh1: asciilifeform: Error: "step" is not a valid command.
asciilifeform: hm.
trinque: i.e. bot barfs something like bnf in sexp form
asciilifeform: trinque: imho that's gilding the lily.
mircea_popescu: trinque i'm all for it, but feed it to me. i dun code much.
trinque: argument grammar is more essentially descriptive of the item than a pile of html
trinque: with smelly things such as html, I tend to avoid making them the canonical representation of an item
mircea_popescu is kinda curious what comes out of this.
trinque: if one had the arg grammar, he could in later days mash tab on his client and get useful completion
trinque: commands-over-gossipd *entirely* replaces the www, and there will eventually be UI for that.
mircea_popescu: nb.

mircea_popescu: cool.
Framedragger: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160914/#7 << would this bot functionality only include silently scooping all links and (silently) submitting to archive.is?
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-14: [00:25:06] <mircea_popescu> shinohai trinque phf Framedragger any of you wanna get the links autoarchive thing going ?
Framedragger: !#s scoopbot
a111: 435 results for "scoopbot", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=scoopbot
shinohai: i tried making archive,is bot but it barfs sometimes if link has already been submitted
Framedragger: PeterL wrote a url scooper, maybe he wants to do the url post to archive.is part as it'd be very trivial anyway? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: Framedragger yes.
Framedragger: shinohai: exception handling much?! :D
mircea_popescu: multiple/all bots doing this would not cause any problems either.
Framedragger: aha. in which case i'll add a thing to scriba and PeterL can do it too and then there'll be some redundancy there, too. sounds good to me
mircea_popescu: perfect. feel free to use whatever archive services you prefer, also. i tend to like archive.is, but it's by no means the only one.
mircea_popescu: but for my own cluing-in : is it possible to write code so that you obtain the same microtime value from two separate calls for it ?
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: re archiving, right! will update laters.
mircea_popescu 's naive notion of microtime would be "returns cycle count", and since all instructions take at least 1 cycle... ☟︎
Framedragger: i don't know. (asciilifeform?) but look, in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2607263/how-precise-is-the-internal-clock-of-a-modern-pc there are hints of madness and inconsistency. "returns clock count" doesn't seem to be it.
Framedragger: most systems do not provide that level of info to userland at all afaik
Framedragger: which yes is sad and fuck x86
mircea_popescu: date +%N 353690185 < on a 3ghz machine eg.
mircea_popescu: nanoseconds is 10 -9, which...
Framedragger: remains to be seen if those are actually accurate. i recall wanting to obtain ns-level timing in a small no-bullshit C program, wasn't able to, reliably. could've been my failure, tho. really wouldn't trust those values
Framedragger: some dude got the same values from multiple calls to microtime but that was in php and could have been php caching things, because, php
Framedragger: (linux appears to require `rdtsc` to be able to return something akin to tick count. asciilifeform maybe knows if this is a doomed affair.)
Framedragger: "rdtsc is not guaranteed to be available on every CPU, or to run at a constant rate, *or be consistent between different cores.*" (emphasis mine). `get_cycles()` is recommended, but from cursory look it seems that on some architectures it uses rdtsc internally? madness. ☟︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: in other news, apparently it is impossible to establish the calorie value of garbanzo beans. "somewhere between 80 and 150" should be good enough for anyone!!1
mircea_popescu: Framedragger thinkl about it though : if they coincide, and they also coincide in the same second, all that happens is that your lighthouse... skips a beat.
mircea_popescu: whoop de doo.
mircea_popescu: incidentally, and re http://trilema.com/2016/gossipd-design-document/#comment-119099 : if anyone likes to fuck around with markov chains etc, a prototype implementation of that would be perfect at this juncture. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: just take however many lines of x person here, create however many bogus lines, put on your blog or w/e.
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: understand and agree. it's worth to have it be pointed out in the comments if only so that someone doesn't start assuming that the spec implicitly provides guarantees of uniqueness etc. and good to have a picture of the madness and lack of guarantee anyway. but i guess you're right
mircea_popescu: yeah, by now it's becoming evident that gossipd is to be delivered with a config file and a VERY LONG helpfile.
Framedragger: man i'll write an mp markov bot one of those days for sure. will probably sneak it into irc bot till it gets banned, too; see how long before people realise it's a bot ☟︎
Framedragger: for reals

a111: Logged on 2016-09-14 11:48 Framedragger: PeterL wrote a url scooper, maybe he wants to do the url post to archive.is part as it'd be very trivial anyway?
PeterL: so bot listens to chan and whenever it sees a link it submits to archive.is?
mircea_popescu: yep
PeterL: and would it say anything in chan, or just do it silently?
mircea_popescu: wouldn't say anything.
PeterL: sounds easy enough
Framedragger: form on archive.is is simple PeterL, just need to get a "sekrit id" to then include it in the POST. also don't assume that all post requests succeed / archive.is gives the same answer, as shinohai noted
mircea_popescu: it has the advantage that if i later search for the link it pops it
mircea_popescu: so i don't actually need to know what it was archived as.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger exciting times huh.
Framedragger: verily!
Framedragger: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160914/#141 << ah, should the bot cite the archived link if an archived url is mentioned in the channel?
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-14: [12:45:20] <mircea_popescu> it has the advantage that if i later search for the link it pops it
mircea_popescu: nope.
Framedragger: i assume by "it pops it" you meant archive.is, tho
Framedragger: ah ok.
mircea_popescu: yes yes, i mean if later i'm trying to read the logs, say in 2020, and we're discussing webpage of retard x ☟︎

phf: pete_dushenski: there's a lot of vague, mystical takes on dogen, but i think that most of the time he makes very straightforward points, like in the wild fox koan, he just says that everything is bound by cause and effect, and if you think you can have a magic talisman against it, you're going to suffer

mircea_popescu: i can see this angle.
phf: there are some interviews with feynman where he's trying to explain how doing science is a constant game of catching yourself lying to yourself long before it becomes a question of "scientific community" etc.. dogen is coming from the opposite direction of learning to see things clearly as a goal, and a lot of his essays are descriptions of what he saw
mircea_popescu: did you read originals for any of this ?
phf: further obscurantism comes from people who don't see clearly, but in a markov chain thinking relay what they heard before "of course that's how it is, i heard it from joe, and it was tired then, what dogen is actually saying is this flowery shit i pulled out of my ass"
asciilifeform: phf: one of the reasons why this is so difficult to teach is that there are no heroes in it. even someone like deryagin, who was respected for renouncing his polywater thing and sinking own career, was really a case of 'ok i set this fire, and put it out'. but there are no heroes in 'ok i have no great invention, won't even bother saying to anyone, and will happily die in obscurity fixing shoes'

mircea_popescu: i knew these ~by heart as a kid.
mircea_popescu: anyway. what's dogen got to say to this fellow ; entirely disinterested in "utility" as he finds himself ?

asciilifeform: 'Someone Is Learning How to Take Down the Internet' (schneier).

phf: i kind of want to believe that dogen wasn't a bore, nor a stickler, but otherwise their goals are unrelated to each other.

asciilifeform: trinque: these folks get painfully old don't they.
asciilifeform: !!up mihi
deedbot: mihi voiced for 30 minutes.
asciilifeform: 'Recently, some of the major companies that provide the basic infrastructure that makes the Internet work have seen an increase in DDoS attacks against them.' << taking this at face value would mean what ? how does one ddos a backbone router ? or lemme guess, he paints dns as 'essential infrastructure'.
trinque: whole thing is "the internet can never change and we are helpless"

mod6: <+pete_dushenski> mod6: !% is all yours mate << ok sounds good. will make the needed changes asap.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 sure, we'll tell pete_dushenski that it's taken and to move the underline one. << thx!
pete_dushenski: mod6: cool. unrelatedly, why do you c/p whole text line instead of using a log link ? fwiw it's tough to read.
phf: fwiw that approach is gossip-proof, there was a thread in logs, that there's not really such a thing as "log" in gossip model, and the conclusion was that logging will need to be reexamined. inline quoting though remains
pete_dushenski: that i can totally see. but until such time... i mean, it's not as if inline quoting is a skill that needs to be kept sharp.
asciilifeform: it is quite untrue that logging is impossible in a gossipnet
asciilifeform: anyone who wants, can choose to publish his particular log.
asciilifeform: (and link to it, etc.)
asciilifeform: it simply will not necessarily line up with anyone else's.
mod6: <+pete_dushenski> mod6: cool. unrelatedly, why do you c/p whole text line instead of using a log link ? fwiw it's tough to read. << i'm old school. and trying to flip-flop between screens is hard for me.
phf: in the old definition of log, i.e. illuminated scroll "thus spoke saint alf"
asciilifeform: phf: there never really were any other kinds of log.
mod6: I find the quoting via web-logs cumbersome, personally. The only saving grace is when a bot parses the line, the spits out that line, and maybe the next subsequent line so I get some context instead of having to copy the log line referenced and drop it into a browser manually.
mod6: Well. Unless the line(s) referenced are say, more than a few days old, then for obvious reasons, it's handy.
mod6: But, while it's still in my scroll back...
mod6: Having pretty good luck testing the new makefiles vpatch.

mircea_popescu: phf cuz logging as we use it atm is a centralized thing
phf: asciilifeform: we started with a single canonical log though, where kako's testimony was implicitly the word of tmsr. there was some anathem/"A Canticle for Leibowitz" jokes about it, the log files were deeded, etc. while working on btcbase i realized that there can be no canonical log without arbitration, i.e. because of netsplits, lost messages, out of order, clock skews you need a single authority to decide what ultimately goes into ☟︎
phf: log. so at some point we were in "log according to btcbase" situation. with the recent move to multiple bots and more importantly multiple logs, we now have "log according to ..." model, which we can still though attempt to reconcile. once we move to gossip there can't even be a talk of single log. it's always "log according to whoever heard and relayed it" by design. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: is a securitist someone sufferint from securitits ?
