mircea_popescu: and in other news, diana utterly owns "ossasepia" in teh google. wd eh,
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes how about you lot take three dozen FGs at .45 ? (cash ; or at your option .5 BTC worth of convertible bonds for s.nsa).
☟︎☟︎ jhvh1: shinohai: The operation succeeded.
BingoBoingo: shinohai ty, edited "Ya Socialismo" to "Oriental socialism", different meat substrates and gotta keep the Chicoms burning time on Engrish lessons.
BingoBoingo: "Ya Socialismo" is what stoner latinos aspring to Jay and Silent Bob want. Oriental Socialism is more or less an anthill.

http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-25#1785986 << i thought that it was just a helpful warning, but upon reflection i realized that this is actually a bug. investigating it further i took a wrong direction on a diff's command line flag switch, and as it stands if you see this warning it

phf: means that vdiff is producing invalid vpatches
phf: i have a btcbase based test harnes, but it of course also didn't catch the issue, because it doesn't know about `\ No newline ...' in band thing either. it treats that line as a textual prelude to the next hunk which is a valid patch format
phf: in any case i'll produce a fix by wednesday, but not before. this requires careful work
☟︎ phf: mod6: an important thing to add to v might be a check ~after~ the press, which ensures that final states of files have shasums that the vpatch chain claims they should
phf: i think right now the way things are implemented (that goes for btcbase anyway) you can have a chain, that links correctly, but actually doesn't press to anything at all like what the hashes claim
mod6: what my vtron does is this: as it iterates through the list of patches to be pressed, after each vpatch pressed, it checks that the output file sha matches the expected.
mircea_popescu: 23962 /*Boost has a year 2038 problem— if the request sleep time is past epoch+2^31 seconds the sleep returns instantly.
mod6: for crying out loud
mircea_popescu: whose process even produces microsoft publishing dashes
phf: mod6: right, that's the right thing to do; for a longest time i was still pressing with the original v.py, but i suspect most people (except maybe ascii) use v.pl at this point
phf: i still have muscle memory for dashes, quotes and a few math symbols on mac en layout. (i would even differentiate between russian << .. >> and en `` .. ''). this stuff seemed like the future in the early 2000s..
phf: easiest way to get a rise out of my iranian colleagues is to suggest that samovar and olivier salad were not "invented" by iranians
mircea_popescu: so is it your comment typed out on a mac, is the idea ?
phf: right, that it could've been typed out by hand
phf: you're assuming that i'm trying to say something useful!
mod6: Looks like this UTF-8 problem with the dashes goes all the way back - and looks like we've all signed it with that in there:
mod6: I pulled the original posts from the ML, and then started looking for "e2 80 94" which I ~think~ is the bad char.
mircea_popescu: chiefly because we didn't actually understand at the time what we were doing.
mod6: Yeah, but furthermore, I don't think the "no UTF8" rule had been established at that point.
mod6: I'd have to dig for that to prove tho.
mircea_popescu: i'm guessing the only way out of this predicament is to have an actual regrind, into a new genesis, of all the patches we actually want.
mod6: And rather than do a fast job to complete this ; I think the right approach is to comb through the entire thing and ensure that no UTF-8 is hiding.
☟︎ mod6: I'm on it, The Foundation is going to close out the month with the SoBA. This work will be high priority post month-end.

phf: because it currently sleeps for 0 seconds when the sleep time would cross
phf: 2^31 seconds since the epoch. Hopefully boost will be fixed by 2028.
