mod6: oh, ok.
mod6: i'll take a look here in a sec.
mod6: prolly simplest way is like: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/i68ww/?raw=true
mod6: you could do it with an iterator too, but that's not quite as clean.
mod6: for example: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/mFY19/?raw=true
mod6: which also leads me to see that in your code, you're attempting to use an iterator to loop over a map<string, string> , and add the keys to argKeys. but you never did set the iterator to mapArgs.begin()
mod6: so that might need to be fixed.
mod6: well, there's also some syntactical problems, here's the fixes: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/TI85U/?raw=true

asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: at one time i tried to implement more or less same item you're making, and did the shiva thing, and in the end thought that whoever it was ( mircea_popescu ? ) who suggested that trb should simply eat ( and prompt to sign ) raw tx, generated externally via scripts, was right
asciilifeform: parsing in boostolade is ugly
asciilifeform: and tx input coad is safety-critical, sapper errs once.
ben_vulpes: heh, last time i took a crack at *that* i got mired in finding unspent outputs with trb ☟︎
asciilifeform: really calls for that wallet split.
asciilifeform: btw manual curation of unspent coinz will be much moar practical once the thing stops nonsensically crapping out random addrs to 'change' to
ben_vulpes: do you have any output selection scripts you keep around?
asciilifeform: nope
asciilifeform: prolly i'm the worst to ask, i hardly ever move coin
ben_vulpes: and yeah, i could possibly put this time into humping trinque's wallet patches down the field
mod6: unf unf
mod6: he's probably got some worthwhile changes
trinque: they're ready, being held because I haven't reground the entire tree around a manifest.
trinque: so if there's a hero around that wants to take that on, we can start getting trb patches out the door again. ☟︎
ben_vulpes: for the sake of exploring the state space; it is more desirable to regrind the whole tree rather than to introduce the manifest at this point and use it going forward?
mod6: i'll regrind the whole trb tree. however, I think if we -must- do this, we should only do it one time. and i really don't even want to do it at all.
mod6: that said, everything must be pretty much "firmly" in place with V rules, manifest, naming conventions, what have you, before I wanna move on that.
mod6: everything documented and blessed.
trinque: mod6: http://trinque.org/2018/06/02/v-manifest-specification/ << can have the thread here if you like
mod6: so this is all in lisp. is it going to be simple for n00bs to get lisp installed and to run V?
trinque: eh? what's in lisp
trinque: the blog post there is talking about the manifest file format.
mod6: the "latest client" linked in the article: http://blog.esthlos.com/esthlos-v-genesis-or-who-presses-the-pressor/ ☟︎
mod6: Step two of the guide says "Ensure at least one of the following is installed:" "sbcl" or "ccl"
mod6: anyway, I guess I'll have to put this on the conveyor and work through all of this.
ben_vulpes: mod6: focus on the manifest design, not the v implementation linked in trinque 's post
ben_vulpes: shouldn't matter in the slightest which v impl is used
mod6: is his lisp version of V to become the new defacto thing that has manifest capabilities?
ben_vulpes: "manifest capabilities" are baked into all V implementations
trinque: there ~are no~ manifest capabilities to be had
ben_vulpes: it's a single file that collapses the tree into a pillar
trinque: the words I wrote right there gave it as an example of "this needs a manifest"
mod6: ben_vulpes: im trying to look at the big picture. the manifest spec is a part of that, ya.
mod6: alright, gents, I'll have to dig into all of this sometime.
ben_vulpes: mod6: my original q was in re why regrinding the whole tree is necessary instead of introducing the manifest now and using it going forward
trinque: ben_vulpes: because the manifest has no antecedent, and you're gonna have to go graffiti other files like an idiot ☟︎
trinque: as the tree stands now, one in makefiles.vpatch, iirc
trinque imagines a house which required a tattoo on your neighbor's wife to keep standing
trinque: probably not bad metaphor for how life does it.
ben_vulpes: well in theory, but in practice everything below makefiles already needs a regrind; aggression to request newblocks if none have been advertised recently; hash truncation atop that. so there's an opportunity to significantly reduce the amount of regrinding by introducing the manifest after the makefiles release and just regrinding 2 patches instead of the whole tree. unless i misread the situation.
trinque: this must be that orthogonal language I've heard about.
mod6: i see ben's point, but i'd rather trb one whole thing, instead of a 'before manifest' and 'after manifest'.
trinque: wherever you introduce the manifest, if it is not the root, in order to involve it in the flow of the tree, that patch must also edit some other file.
mod6: opting to regrind the entire tree, and whatever other vpatches that need to be folded in that currently are not.
mod6: I can delcare the v054 release with a manifest of my own ala: To declare a "release", an author's GNS pointer for a project would point to his selected manifest.
mod6: then perhaps all the things that are still not folded in can be in a second release, or just folded in without release.
mod6: we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. but first and foremost, the manifest items seems alright to me; "$blockCount $patchTitle $patchAuthor $comment".
mod6: I read this all a while back when posted, liked it, will think on it some more -- but off hand, can't think of anything we might be missing.
ben_vulpes: s/after makefiles/in the makefiles patch/
mod6: Perhaps we need to 1: Formally adopt the manifest spec proposed by trinque, 2: build a V that supports it.
phf: trinque: ftr we have the "introduce manifest now without regrind, use it moving forward" pattern already implemented once
phf: not sure if you saw the thread, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-15#1825784 ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-15 17:26 phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-15#1825631 << updated, but it's a novel way of using manifest though: normally it requires a regrind where manifest is built up as you go, so the press order is enforced through graph. right now your manifest gives a press order, that's not enforced by anything
trinque: phf: harping on it because I don't see evidence that reason for the manifest has been internalized
trinque: but yes totally possible
trinque: mod6: what do you imagine needs to change in a vtron to support the manifest?
mod6 thinks
mod6: it's just a flat file that resides in the project, ya?
trinque: yep
phf: trinque: yeah
mod6: ah, then nothing i can think of. don't know what i was on about there.
mod6: should it be a part of a proper genesis?
mod6: because if so, then we need a new trb genesis. which doesn't effect v in anyway, just another pita for trb.
mod6: maybe a necessary one, however.
trinque: see phf's linked line above. not strictly necessary
trinque: what it means is that before that point, there isn't a manifest-enforced press order
trinque: could decide that we're fine with that historical fact. world won't implode
phf: trinque: one reason i didn't include patch name in the manifest is because patch name becomes a promise, unless you enforce it by tooling. i didn't want to go that way, but since current standard manifest does include patch name, than perhaps V ought to check the manifest against the patchset. relatedly fully manifest-based v doesn't even need graph tooling, can presumably press according to manifest's chain. ☟︎
trinque: could say we want trb to be exemplar of "how to V", in which case yeah, regrind it all ☟︎
mod6: hmm. maybe not required in a technical sense. but i'd like it all to hang together, and be proper. for posterity.
trinque: phf: thought I had there was that if you have only a manifest in hand, perhaps the name is useful in some dht lookup for the patches later
trinque: I agree, promisetronic without the vtron getting angry at you over mismatched name
mod6: ah, interesting point re patch name
trinque: ben_vulpes: got it; yeah, I'd say if it gets bolted on, inside the makefiles patch is a sensible place
ben_vulpes: it's either there or regrind back to the genesis
ben_vulpes: in other reports, btcfor.gifts does indeed work for small amounts

asciilifeform: relatedly , some post-sov orcistans ( e.g. kazakh ) are toying with switching alphabets, will be interesting to see how that goes
mircea_popescu: it's not being proposed as a retoactive fix. the idea is, ~after~ the patch that puts in a manifest, ~subsequent~ patches will be well ordered. and the fact that the earlier ones aren't exactly well ordered is a) resolved in any practical sense by the fact that you won't have patch imports across the barrier more than 1 deep (ie, once a patch after the manifest patch references a patch before the manifest patch, THAT refernec
mircea_popescu: ed patch is now also well ordered, "caught in the patchchain" as it were) and b) we can and very likely will re-organize the portion between genesis and the manifest patch later anyway.

mircea_popescu: trinque i can't imagine why not ?! what am i missing here ?
trinque: how's the patch look, that adds the new file?

asciilifeform: i think trinque's observation is re how to glue the ~old~ tree on, in the first manifest-bearing patch
trinque: aha, once there's a manifest, all's fine.
mircea_popescu: let's take http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=bot&search= as an example tree.
mircea_popescu: 1. you sign a new patch, manifest.patch. at this juncture, phf's viewer will show it to the side, unconnected to the tree.
mircea_popescu: 2. you sign another new patch, later on, "fixing-bugzappers.patch". this patch references manifest patch and ircbot-multichan-etc.
asciilifeform: aa , clever, no glue
mircea_popescu: 3. you sign yet another new patch, hurr-biff.patch, referencing fixing-bugzappers.
mircea_popescu: yes ?
mircea_popescu: if you find the manifest patrch is useful (as you do), YOU INCLUDE IT.
mircea_popescu: but if you do not include it, it's not there.
mircea_popescu: this is the core of V, yes ?
trinque: eh that accretion of patch material means patch size/readability is inversely proportional to modularity of the code
asciilifeform: this worx; and when in 500yrs the republic schisms into west rome and east derpinople , they can have parallel manifests, etc, lol
mircea_popescu: trinque which is why the regrind mechanism even exists
mircea_popescu: once it becomes a pita regrind.
mircea_popescu: but ~once~, not for lack of activity.
asciilifeform: aha, recall the 'omfg flow graph is O(N^2)' thread
mircea_popescu: oh, i do.
asciilifeform: ( asciilifeform's answer , was , 'if the N is big enuff to be problem, yer civilization is due for a reformat' )
trinque: what's meant by "include it" here
ben_vulpes: reference the manifest file in a later patch.
mircea_popescu: ^
trinque: yes, show me
trinque: what's it look like in the patch file
ben_vulpes: manifest.txt $hash_prev $hash_curr ?
mircea_popescu: - A591AF341FF436F6A3391AA5163F6BC366358B719427154F88815D87213798C92EAE4923E6BE147B92C04562619564D7A64AD9AC51CA08E5165B0B4B3DA9813A
mircea_popescu: + 6ED286AA5D94E22E9087ABB55E14F7BB7EB0B098E490B0D4D6B6118BB72665C220910D24F957AC0E096A035E59A5BA3BB81AB63552010727D40AC7B8B4A2D8BB
mircea_popescu: ircbot/manifest.txt
ben_vulpes: right that
ben_vulpes: and not "reference" but "edit"
mircea_popescu: true.
trinque: mk. I said "edit" above
trinque: anyhow, if we're talking about how to use the manifest, got it.
trinque: I was discussing how the manifest gets welded on, if welding on
mircea_popescu: through usage, basically. you see a problem with that ?
ben_vulpes: add a new file for the manifest, create a vpatch, any subsequent vpatches that don't also edit manifest must be reground into mainline.
ben_vulpes: no graffiti even necessary.
mircea_popescu: and gives a cheap "experimental tree" device.
mircea_popescu: supplanting ye olde "use special signatures", which i gather was bulky
trinque: right, subsequent usage pulls it in.
trinque: wont be able to press a "makefiles" + manifest until that subsequent patch, but I don't really see a problem with that
trinque: I brought up the graffiti because that'd be (and has historically been, before manifest) the way to attach the graph
mircea_popescu: yeah.
mircea_popescu: in other events : a new resource type just got discovered in eulora
mircea_popescu: it's a cr50!
asciilifeform: lol!
asciilifeform: what's it do ?
mircea_popescu: not even kidding (and only took like 3+years to find)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so far, nobody knows.
diana_coman: aha, I guess now I have to post a screenshot with alf-dedication :P
asciilifeform: it oughta ask player for a magic # , and detonate after 5 unsuccessful tries
mircea_popescu: lol word.
mircea_popescu: ON BOTH SCORES
diana_coman: ahaha, that doesn't even sound *that* bad
asciilifeform: character should also age by 3 weeks on each shot.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in further lulz : it's classified under... LUMBER ☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829714 << this is a significant gain, in that it reduces the need for elaborate toposorting. first, check the manifest chain. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:45 phf: trinque: one reason i didn't include patch name in the manifest is because patch name becomes a promise, unless you enforce it by tooling. i didn't want to go that way, but since current standard manifest does include patch name, than perhaps V ought to check the manifest against the patchset. relatedly fully manifest-based v doesn't even need graph tooling, can presumably press according to manifest's chain.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829715 << nah, trb is the bulkiest and most dangerous item on the table, it utterly can't be the exemplar at this early stage. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:45 trinque: could say we want trb to be exemplar of "how to V", in which case yeah, regrind it all
mircea_popescu: basically, we just introduced the possibility of "light nodes" :D
mircea_popescu: or w/e they called the pseudonodes, i forget.
asciilifeform: not really analogues, afaik in the contemplated new v you still need the history, to press
asciilifeform: 'light node' would be if patches were somehow self-contained with whole hog
asciilifeform: *analogous
mircea_popescu: point being, "blind" v could exist that just puts in the patches as seen in manifest, checks no sigs.
asciilifeform: it was possible even in orig v, asciilifeform's orig v99 even had a sadmode flag to trigger it
mircea_popescu: fine!!!1
asciilifeform: ( why? because asciilifeform doesn't like to crypto in any form, even as toy, on boxes without rng, and some of his trb dev machines at the time had none )
asciilifeform: arguably this kind of thing doesn't belong at all in a production vtron, it is uncomfortably close to the proverbial 'null cipher flag'(tm)(r)
asciilifeform: fwiw i had it mark all patches with 'WILD' alarm string when operating gpgless
asciilifeform: ( iirc! asciilifeform prolly oughta reread his orig coad, actually been wrong before re the mechanisms ! )
asciilifeform: 'note: this pistol is in firing-backwards mode'
mircea_popescu: lol
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: almost entirely unrelatedly, didja ever have a 'iron wallets spec' article ? asciilifeform had a notion that there was one, and dug in the l0gz, found ~0
asciilifeform: all i found were threads re various sad heathen wallets
mircea_popescu: i recall a very early item, i don't expect much value buried there but lessee
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you don't mean http://trilema.com/2016/how-to-cut-the-wallet/ do you ?
asciilifeform: that was the closest item i found yea
asciilifeform: but nuffin specifically re iron
mircea_popescu: there's also http://trilema.com/2016/the-ideal-bitcoin-wallet/
mircea_popescu: from ~the same period. but yes, there was some discussion, hm
mircea_popescu: you know what, thios might've been private discussions in nsa boardroom during early cardano mockups etc ?
asciilifeform: possibly
asciilifeform: i regularly return , on chalkboard, to the subj, but on last visit to it realized that i'm something like a nonviolinist designing violin
asciilifeform: ideally it'd be a mircea_popescu spec.
mircea_popescu: problem is my thinking moved away from "hardware wallet" because, honestly, what's needed is a hardware computer.
asciilifeform: aha!
mircea_popescu: am i going to have no rng in this wallet ? how make change address then ?
mircea_popescu: am i going to have rng ? how small can it then be ? if not small, and rng, why is it not using a proper terminal ?
mircea_popescu: if using proper terminal why is it not rsatron ?
asciilifeform: conceivably rng is separable, can simply be rs232 jack in which e.g. FG goes.
mircea_popescu: fg is large enough to make this "hardware wallet" not a credit card.
asciilifeform: correct
mircea_popescu: there's no half inch dolphin either, and for a reason as well.
asciilifeform: nothing of any import will ever be 'credit card' form factor, go an audit the whatever-nm chip
asciilifeform: *and
asciilifeform: more likely is briefcase.
mircea_popescu: and if you're making your dolphin 100kgs, why are you making it a sea anemone, could just as well make it dolphin.
asciilifeform: the only reason is that wallet dun need the same horsepower as 'general' comp, can be 8bit cpu etc
mircea_popescu: last fucking thing i need is a pile of briefcases, each painted red, and labeled. "this one -- does hashing."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but what it needs dun matter; thing is... what do you need ?
asciilifeform: errybody already suffers the pile of briefcases. what i'd like is one that does walleting well.
asciilifeform: 'well' includes, e.g., 'no c'
asciilifeform: '0 opensores legacycrapola in the mix' and so forth.
mircea_popescu: come to think of it, why am i even having "a wallet", as opposed to say a rsa'd privkey list. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: "but mp, that's what you told them to make the wallet, and they did, back in 2012 or w/e"
asciilifeform: well, trad bitcoin dun rsa
mircea_popescu: reheheheally ?! look at that damned thing sometime. it's encrypted like i'm gay.
asciilifeform: there's no rsa in trb
mircea_popescu: http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/in-re-bitcoin-devs-are-idiots.htm for the historically minded.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829932 << was contemplating 'wallet' in the sense of 'iron which actually signs', rather than mere bottle for keyz that get copied elsewhere to be arithmetized over ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 20:27 mircea_popescu: come to think of it, why am i even having "a wallet", as opposed to say a rsa'd privkey list.
asciilifeform: ( the latter is quite useless heathen bauble )
mircea_popescu: but my point is -- by the time this iron actually signs, this iron actually also manages signatures, and therefore this iron actually is a rsatron.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the "how to cut" piece is the controlling element here, because i don't even recall if we came up wioth a definitive answer.
asciilifeform: i'm partial to the cut where the signing device only needs a few kb of storage. ( no. 1 in mircea_popescu's taxonomy )
mircea_popescu: kiyleeslut rittle led tab on the right of this one
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform incidentally!
mircea_popescu: s.mg would be amenable to a deal whereby s.nsa puts a custom built npc in eulora and handles exchanges of euloran microchips for its own products (atm, fg)
mircea_popescu: something like that interesting to nsa ?
mircea_popescu: o brother.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sounds like spiffy idea. ( all we'd need, is to restock, currently we're all sold )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform we'll also need a little bit of code to handle it and i guess a special dolly yes ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: right. ( keep in mind, currently asciilifeform knows very little re subj, aside from diana_coman's mpi works )
mircea_popescu: so here's some wonderment for today : random fetlife slut follows a webirc link (doh, what, irc exists ?!?!?!) and ends up here, at 14:58. sits here quietly, and patiently, until at 15:05 i say something. that's SEVEN WHOLE MINUTES. this alone, you know ? and then, puts another FOUR solid minutes in wtfing this thing, so that at 15:09 she can <kiyleeslut> Found it :).
mircea_popescu: so this is going pretty good so far, yes ?
mircea_popescu: ~at which point~ the whole flood starts. not earlier, or anything.
mircea_popescu: how, just HOW did this entire tower of chair work out to the maximal annoyance point ? absolutely NOTHING the esltards do is nearly this good at any purpose they ever declare.
asciilifeform: logging in from ipnoje ~guarantees this
mircea_popescu: somehow some idiots produced "smartphones" for which some other idiots "wrote software" which other idiots are using, and the end delivery is THIS
asciilifeform: it's rather unfortunate, possibly, that the www gate even works on ipnoje
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform but my question is, HOW ? the iphone is not as watertight, not as long-lived, not as bright, colorful, not as ANYTHING as it is fucking annoying.
asciilifeform: hey if it were 1994 they'd be logging in from aol and getting modem hangup and betcha similar picture.
mircea_popescu: ten thousand people managed to coordinate to produce something that's 40% blue and 85% interesting and 62% warm and 92% square and 100.00% FUCKING ANNOYING.
mircea_popescu: how is this outcome even possible.
asciilifeform: pleeb net pipes are optimized , if for anyffing, for burst throughput , not uptime
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform precisely. how the fuck is this possible, if they worked at winning a war they'd lose, but when they don't work at sticking in my craw they manage.
