mircea_popescu: hola
mod6: just catchin' up on ze logz
shinohai: http://archive.is/Zlp1i <<< Work for Qntra instead, where sharing screenshots of pron around the office is encouraged.
mod6: sweet!, got my touchpad working
shinohai: :D
mod6: easy asf
mod6: [this is my first gentoo desktop env.]
mod6: went together pretty easily.
shinohai: What Desktop did you use btw?
mod6: xfce for now.
shinohai: Nifty.
mod6: probably will switch to fvwm when i get all the configs in place.
mod6: my openbsd lappy is fvwm, i love it.
mod6: i basically have no use for a "desktop environment" anyway. does ~0 for me.
shinohai: I'm still using fluxbox, use what you know I guess.
mod6: ive never used this one before... seems to "work" ok i guess.
shinohai: I had xfce on an Arch install I tried once ... was indeed ok. Much better than gnome/gdm from mah Debian days.
mod6: shinohai: werd
asciilifeform: mod6: ever tried 'ratpoison' ?

mod6: sweet, ok up and running with fvwm
shinohai has determined he is too lazy for ratpoison, switches back
mod6: lol, again, never thought i'd say this, but, ratpoison looks good
shinohai: It is very nice looking and lightweight ( big plus) but gonna require a learning curve to be useful for me
mod6: i used to use one called 'ion', which had some awesome keybindings. this was suggested to me by a gentoo guy back in like 03.
mod6: but, now, find that fvwm works fine for what i want
asciilifeform: mod6: before ratpoison, i used 'flwm'

ben_vulpes: yes i know.
sina: hullo
sina: asciilifeform: you about?
sina: hi mircea_popescu
mircea_popescu: heya
sina: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-07#1639932 << was just reading this ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-04-07 16:03 asciilifeform: does he IMMEDIATELY get a bookmarkable link based on the key's hash ? that he can come back to next hour, next day, next decade ? if so, how ??
sina: do you know if the src for phuctor is avail? ☟︎☟︎
sina: I am curious to look and learn

a111: Logged on 2017-06-09 04:38 mircea_popescu: wotopen at any rate
sina: mircea_popescu: let me rephrase then. was wondering if eventlet db_pool http://eventlet.net/doc/modules/db_pool.html had been considered ☟︎
sina: to speed up python
mircea_popescu: ah, now that i dunno
sina: you can use it to get good pretty good mileage out of single box python+dbms apps
mircea_popescu: is it lenghty ?
sina: its just a mechanism to offload a IO to an async model in C (epoll, kqueue and libevent supported)
mircea_popescu: how many lines ?
sina: how many lines is the whole library? or how many lines do you need to add to your app to use it?
mircea_popescu: the library
sina: db_pool is about 500 lines, and I guess there is some lower level stuff behind that
sina: https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/blob/master/eventlet/db_pool.py
mircea_popescu: dsoesn't sound too terrible.
sina: you can also use eventlet wsgi on the frontend to offload the http side as well ☟︎
sina: (assuming the phuctor python app is written wsgi compatible)
mircea_popescu: phuctor is vaguely slated for a 4th iirc rewrite to decouple the front end and other stuff. so i guess this goes in the literature review pile for when.
sina: any chance I could be involved? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: prolly.
sina: will it be ada this time?
sina: it'd be a lot more than 600 lines of ada that's for sure :P
mircea_popescu: i have nfi
sina: I am a big fan of the 600 lines of python idea, using libraries to offload stuff to C where appropriate ☟︎
mircea_popescu: hopefully this "offload" doesn't turn into a turd
sina: define turd?
sina: lol
mircea_popescu: lengthy pile of accidentally working complexity. you know, just like irl.
sina: it's got to be fast and correct to be able to do the concurrency, so that hopefully dampens that kind of thing
sina: you can never rly get rid of it I guess
sina: anyway, I guess I will come back later and ask asciilifeform and he'll laugh at me
sina: mircea_popescu: I work on the biggest python turd of all, OpenStack :P
mircea_popescu: but! if you're looking for something to sink teeth in right now, either a c or python mpfhf impl is prolly a ghood moive
sina: mpfhf?
mircea_popescu: didja read today's log ?
sina: will do so now, as you can see I was reading previous months logs :P
mircea_popescu: hehe. yeah.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's this algorithmic (as opposed to algebraic) hash function. ben_vulpes released his lisp impl.
mircea_popescu: and i suspect alf is either making a c one or trying to talk himself into it ☟︎
sina: interesting, reading your blog now
ben_vulpes: "totally unnecessary and reprehensible dependency"
ben_vulpes: TURD
mircea_popescu: wow
mircea_popescu: nice coinage
ben_vulpes: ty, ty
sina: hi ben_vulpes
sina: "Turns out, it doesn't work at all." ...so does the impl on the page work or not?
mircea_popescu: it works in the sense of doing something ; but not in the sense of oding what it's supposed to.
sina: hehe
ben_vulpes: sina: i didn't figure that was ambiguous in any way
sina: ben_vulpes: it's not, you're right :P
mircea_popescu: on the positive side, candi_lustt is more than happy to let you try out your code on her teats.
ben_vulpes: a million billion log lines later, i have found an implementation-killer
ben_vulpes: turns out one can't `decf' a loop-macro established `place' ☟︎
ben_vulpes: from a function defined outside the loop macro
mircea_popescu: as stated this is unsurprising
ben_vulpes: perhaps mircea_popescu can enlighten me as to why exactly it works this way
mircea_popescu: scoping, neh ? how'd you fuck up the data from outside ?
ben_vulpes: it is currently filed under "dangerous fucking macro binding horseshit lispers are too goddamn liberal with"
mircea_popescu: why ?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: naively, i passed a function called from within the scope a reference to the thing
ben_vulpes: because i've yet to learn the dark arts of macro wizardry, and it's dangerous, and so it gets filed as dangerous stuff i don't understand yet.
mircea_popescu: ah like that.
ben_vulpes: now i shall have to spend some time getting intimate with places and macro capture rules

sina: can you confirm my intepretation of the spec for mpfhf is correct or not?
mircea_popescu: i'd say tis correct.
sina: kk, so how come in "step 1" of the prototype, you're modifying S in the halfscrew, rather than R, because the spec says "if bit is 1, half screw S in R"?
mircea_popescu: cuz the prototype is older tyhan the spec.
sina: ah fux, so I can't rely on the steps displayed in the prototype to validate my work as I go?
mircea_popescu: not really :)
mircea_popescu: the prototype was originally more of a "omfg show me what the fuck do you mean with this spec ?!?!?!" sort of easement.
mircea_popescu: "works in the sense that it does something, not in the sense it does what it should" ☟︎

sina: mircea_popescu: can you point if I'm missing something obvious? From my understanding of the spec, the number of "steps" is = the length of M, but in your examples (understanding they're of a nonworking prototype) have a lot more steps than len(M)
