mircea_popescu: in other proceedings, i met hanbot for drinks at the blue marlin (local brothel), where we watched teen hussies duke it out. literally : uconn beat the shit out of south carolina (all black girls, for maximum lulz. a tall lanky one even cried!).
mircea_popescu: i taught her a lesson in handicapping of magnificent splendour rarely seen : halfway through last quarter, the score being 80 (to 40 something) i asked her whether they clear 94. no way. she bet me, and well...
deedbot: douchebag voiced for 30 minutes.
douchebag: Alright, is the !!subscribe function working currently?
douchebag: And I'm not sure why it's failing, I'm not even reciving the request in the access logs
douchebag: mircea_popescu: Could you try subscribing to that feed? Incase it's because my account doesn't have permission?
douchebag: Yeah I realize that, I just read up on a new technique and I'm geniunely interested to see if it's successful

ben_vulpes: spam over, thank you for your patience
mircea_popescu: you know you should probably consolidate invoices, it'\s a pain in the ass to pay the same person 3 or n times in the same day/week
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i suppose the thing to do is invoice once with a link to the deeded linen items
ben_vulpes: in other news, i think that fare broke the "simple-date" behavior in the cl "postmodern" postgresql client library
ben_vulpes: > Fix .asd files so they work well with ASDF 3.3
ben_vulpes: another delightful play date with little georgie open soros
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes not such a good idea to introduce more moving parts. but simply "n = x for a + y for b + z for c"
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-03-26 15:36 mircea_popescu: somehow, notwithstanding how san fernando valley dominated hollywood for half of the 80s and most of the 90s, the mpaa still reflects "the movie industry" views of state st, rather than either hollywood or porn valley.

BingoBoingo: 250 signatures is the bar for getting his name printed on the ballot. Bring da sutures for da pantsuit buttleakx
mircea_popescu: it'ds also strictly speaking not quite incoinceivable he actually wins. nevada is small.
BingoBoingo: The best part is this isn't even the photogenic brother. This is the one whose face got run over by a car and droops. But yes he can win.
BingoBoingo: Nevada is small except for the part where it holds vegas... Very winnable.
mircea_popescu: depends how the campaign goes. but if people turn out to actually give a shit about "stood up in arms to federal govt and won", heck, he's got it.
BingoBoingo: Right, nothing's a sure thing. Pantsuit is eating their Facebook of all things. US politics is getting deliciously weird on the way to the flush.
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-03-26 01:41 mircea_popescu: incidentally, "every shop must have a website (with ssl everywhere!!!)" and "every customer must have a loyalty card" trends of useless nonsense somehow haven't converged to the most basic sanity of, "give us your rsa pubkey, then download your data from our website whenever you want to, just go to shop.com/yourname"
mircea_popescu: then b) becomes just having the bot subscribe to that feed.
trinque: pretty hesitant to continue to build the republican dependency on the web browser.
hanbot: p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Sqn1u/?raw=true << anyone else ever seen this wonder?
trinque: mircea_popescu: depends on "web" I should've said. I'd sooner skip the RSS feed part and have the bot directly message folks when interesting things happen. the usefulness of this is blunted by the fact that currently gossipd is implemented by gpg-paste.
hanbot: just that node, mircea_popescu
hanbot: i do have the old mod6 vtron, i'll look @ new, ty asciilifeform
mircea_popescu: trinque there's two layers here. layer 1 : there's a lot of flexibility in letting it be rss ; i can have a rss reader read it for me rather than put all failure points in freenode-dns.
mircea_popescu: layer 2, the general point : rss is very visible an irc-driven reaction to web idiocy. it's the web-less-est thing on the web, and for the very plain and evident consideration tha the web is wrong, EXACTLY in the way discussed here re alphabet etc, "do not ye pretend to tell the user how to display data".
mircea_popescu: i suspect that however you turn it, something LIKE rss we will have to have, and that like is so close as to not make the killing worth the bullets.
trinque: mircea_popescu: this and also "I can't push you anything"
trinque: certainly the thing is needed in the abstract. service exists and user wants a stream of happenings.
trinque: just want to cogitate on which implementation will least obstruct future sanity
hanbot: ooo ty asciilifeform, quite right. now how did i end up with old vtron and new usermanual, lol
hanbot: oh man, you have any idea how much time you prolly just saved me? phew
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, did you know pigs actually have lower fat ratios than human females ? 70% or so muscle dem ripped oinkers.
BingoBoingo: Pigs also do more bad sports drugs than most ballsketsport players
mircea_popescu: phf does your new vdiff (that's supposed to introduce keccak into the build flow) actually REQUIRE the presser ALREADY HAVE keccak ?

phf: vtools graph that's on btcbase is all sha512
phf: (but just to further clarify, vtools patchset is all SHA512, so pressing it will work with all the existing tooling. vtools's vdiff can be pressed to have either keccak or sha512 support. vtools's vpatch at the moment can be pressed to have keccak support only.)
phf: right now keccak/sha512 vpatches are not differentiated in any way, so having both of them in the same workflow might result in confusion (in fact it did when i was testing things at some point). it might be worthwhile to introduce some kind of hash tagging scheme, eg keccak:<hash> vs sha512:<hash> and keep <hash> without prefix as sha512 for legacy reasons.
phf: i've avoided any particular scheme, because it might introduce equivalence that doesn't exist. sha512 as an "alternative" vs. sha512 as aggressively deprecated.
