mircea_popescu: a well, uploaded it to trilema (should be visible at http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/thailand-crown-prince-dog-birthday.flv ) but for some reason 404s that i'm not going to be arsed to debug.

mircea_popescu: seems if you want 30mb worth of bad homemade porn in dubious antiquated encodings we'll need better infrastructure than is extant.

trinque: ave1: is it your experience that your gcc+gnat builds on musl? builds for musl, yes, but on? ☟︎

trinque: and while I'm flailing and torching afternoons trying to get a vtools sat down on my cuntoo buildbox, if anyone can point me to instructions on getting gprbuild to cough up a static binary, I'd be much obliged

mircea_popescu: whether it actually ~is~ static in any dependable sense across platforms etc, still somewhat of a matter under investigation, fwiu ?\ ☟︎

mircea_popescu: quite. if there is any writing that has a shot at that "great american novel title", it'd be l.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo did you get as far as where he ~reveals~ the sauce for the "go at it the right way" device ? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: quite makes the whole thing.

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-03#1891970 << afaik built to date on 2 platforms total ( if anyone did a 3rd, not yet reported in the l0gz ) -- x64 and arm64. both replicated in asciilifeform's torture room, the former in regular use . thing builds strictly static+musltronic bins, it aint even knob-adjustable (which is as it oughta be imho) . ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2019-02-03 01:24 mircea_popescu: whether it actually ~is~ static in any dependable sense across platforms etc, still somewhat of a matter under investigation, fwiu ?\

asciilifeform: afaik the only successful builds to date were on trad/barbaric gentoos , on top of which sat adacorpse-gnat '16.

asciilifeform: incidentally, even old-fashioned barbaric adacorpse gnat was well-behaved re '-static' flag -- there's an os that dun even support static link (crapple) and it will properly barf there, rather than silently build dynamic ( incidentally can still build a runnable ffa there, fwiw, in debug mode -- see readme.txt )

asciilifeform: i concede that i have ~not~ tried winblowz (which incidentally ~does~ permit static link), couldn't think of any reason to, to date

asciilifeform: incidentally i expect that results from 'does ffa build' carry over to errybody who is currently using a ffa-derived gpr config ( this includes diana_coman , iirc , and possibly phf )

asciilifeform: re ffa in particular, if yer testing on something truly exotic (in re not having a posix layer) you will have to change a coupla lines in os.adb where i/o happens

asciilifeform: for ffa , the only os knobs you need are 1) a means for getting commandline string 2) equiv. of putchar 3) equiv. of getchar 4) a means to read bytes from a FG .

asciilifeform: ( this means that e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-07-06#1832315 theoretically suffices for 'os' on which can run ffacalc. ) ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2018-07-06 17:07 asciilifeform: ok here goes, ftr : http://loper-os.org/pub/x86-64-toystore-os.tar.gz >> sha512==e292a6d4296bc3cc63d2bc78bb7def807f7c4e9f8e630b292afec00b08c1fc2f8eeff5d074560804828ee7aee8ab5e43e698436c203c990d994863882e51446a

trinque: diana_coman: I've got the diff between my cuntoo genesis.vpatch and yours chewed down to human size (about 900 lines). getting closer

asciilifeform: if you want to do , e.g., 4096bit rsa, needs iron with at least 256kB of ram . and 2 serial ports, 1 on which to hang FG, other for operator i/o. that's moar or less it, in re minimal iron req'd.

trinque: divergence is entirely within the profile dir, no ebuild differences, so that's a very encouraging result

mircea_popescu: o hey.

trinque: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/OJFYM/?raw=true << I'll take to it with fresher eyes, but it looks like on diana_coman's end symlinks are being dereferenced, or something in that vicinity. that appears to be the only class of difference.

asciilifeform: trinque: possibly i'm thick, but how come they can turn out to differ at all b/w 2 installs ? does it munge'em at install time programmatically somehow ?

trinque: the build script produces a genesis.vpatch which encompasses the cuntoo portage tree.

trinque: because we're comparing the output of her and my build machines, the goal being determinism.

trinque: the goal here is that everyone who runs the script gets exactly the same genesis.vpatch, of course. why folks got slightly different results is exactly the question.

asciilifeform: ok that was actually my q ('is the source of the nondeterministic noise known?')

trinque: my release contains my signature of genesis.vpatch, but not the vpatch itself. this way everyone is forced to confirm the bridge out of gentoo and into cuntoo

asciilifeform: ( and muchly superior to how asciilifeform did trb's 'chicken' genesis, where was stuck giving it as hand-cranked recipe on acct of the vdiff of the period being unable to describe deletion of binturds )

trinque: asciilifeform: the diff there contains only path weird, and I hazard a guess there's a difference in vdiff behavior. I used a vdiff pressed down to vtools_tempfile_standalone_notmp

asciilifeform: nao this is interesting ( i assume both of you used phf's modern vdiff, which as far as anyone knows is 100% deterministic and dun import 'locale' crapolade like the ancient one did )

mircea_popescu: trinque time for bash --version ?

mircea_popescu: i got 4.1.16 ; it'd be a wonder if anyone still has a 3 anywhere, or for that matter if there;'s some subtle symlink treatment difference between them, but...

ave1: trinque, http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-03#1891961, I've build it with itself (i.e. musl). But the ultimate start has always been the gcc version from AdaCore. I could not get it to work with an FSF start. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2019-02-03 00:35 trinque: ave1: is it your experience that your gcc+gnat builds on musl? builds for musl, yes, but on?

trinque: building it on cuntoo might be a good test of your script's isolation. possible it relies on something from the host.

ave1: the whole thing in the end is static, but yes maybe still relies on a specific gcc lib in there

trinque: headed bedward now, but I'll see what I can dig up tomorrow. appeared the bootstrap compiler refused to run.

trinque: diana_coman: the first thing I'm curious about is the press-head which produced your vdiff

trinque: the paths from your genesis don't even look like real paths; they look like two paths mangled together

mircea_popescu: you actually have diff vdifs.

mircea_popescu: he pressed to vtools_tempfile_standalone_notmp ; you pressed to vtools_ksum

mircea_popescu: not saying that necessarily accounts for the difference. but it is a fact.

mircea_popescu: diana_coman what's bash --version say ?

diana_coman: for full comparison with http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-03#1892015 mine is GNU bash, version 4.4.12(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2019-02-03 04:03 trinque: GNU bash, version 4.4.12(1)-release (x86_64-gentoo-linux-musl)

mircea_popescu: so same ver diff build.

trinque: the code that runs vdiff is pretty simple, lives at line 114 of scripts/make_portage_tree.sh

trinque: diana_coman: might I get a tarball of your cuntoo build directory's present state? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: bwahahah

mircea_popescu: hanbot pick a laptop, bake the man's cuntoo. (principal issue, that gentoo->cuntoo "bridge", see if his sig matches). ☟︎☟︎☟︎

mircea_popescu: AND THEN THERE WERE THREE!!!

diana_coman: trinque, it's possibly best to run your latest script and then hand over everything you need, fresh and clear? not a big issue otherwise to rummage and pack that dir but I don't even recall if I did not touch it further after that point when I sent the genesis patch so I'd rather not introduce artefacts ☟︎

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: recall the ball bearing analogy for simulated annealing algo ?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform on the basis of general experience i expect (the foregoing is no kind of proof) that their "fucking heathens" consists of this derpy dood telling some inept whore in cocal casino that "he didn'rt want to assume".

mircea_popescu: nicole'll tell you all about it, once she digs herself out of punishment hole and is allowed maybe the use of furniture again.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i was thinking rather of the 1 that 'fell onto' that secretute , famously

mircea_popescu: o, right, right. the difference between him and 10`000 'ard cunts in the sad isles that night was that he's the one the chick decided to give a run for his money (which he got to keep most of).

mircea_popescu: ordinary working class telegraph boys fall on her every other weekend, with no further effect.

BingoBoingo: "She says Well if you will go and talk the right way to Comiskey I believe he will give you $3000 but you must be sure you go at it the right way and don't go and ball it all up. Well we argude about it a while because I don't want to hold nobody up Al but finally I says I would. It would not be holding nobody up anyway because I am worth $3000 to the club if I am worth a nichol."

BingoBoingo: Leads to: "Then he says I am not sure you are going to get anything. I says What do you mean? And he says I have gave you a very fare contract and if you don't want to live up to it that is your own business."

mircea_popescu: you're thinking hm... this is kinda out of character. but you don't realise the fucking paramecium ~simply imported some dna from the woman~.

mircea_popescu: THEN sixty pages later it becomes obvious it's just her , "do it the right way" "which way is the right way ?" "the one that works out to what i want" "but this is after the fact" "i am a christian!!!"

mircea_popescu: the whole fucking pile of http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-02#1891780 is one thing ; but then there's STRUCTURE in the grime. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2019-02-02 19:04 mircea_popescu: if you redefine all words to mean simply "i love you", you will "live" in the most loving world imaginable.

BingoBoingo: Not to mention, whatever the last person he talked to said becomes holy writ until he talks to someone else

mircea_popescu: i will actually say on the record that i currently believe jack keefe to be the representative american, in this exact sense : if all americans were to be defined by delta from a single point, he's the point which, if chosen, affords the smallest total sum of deltas.

mircea_popescu: which yes, on the face makes lardner the most important writer on america.

mircea_popescu: now, the question is -- why did sovok leadership not simply gift the population a buncha copies of this book ?

mircea_popescu: they very much had the http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-22#1816498 problem. but they did not have enough fucking sense to approach it correctly. ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2018-05-22 05:11 mircea_popescu: this paradigm readily explains the soviet state - "rock and roll" relationship, and moreover that historical accident had a lot to do with why alphabet even ~exists~ today. otherwise, on the naked strength of imaginary "advertising revenue" google is worth ~dozen stackexchanges/slashdots/sourceforges. but, generals always fight last year's war, and so here we are, "bayesian lesswisdom".

mircea_popescu: there is a deep an' fundamental reason "the narrative" in that sad shithole consists entirely of and exists entirely as commerciam communication aka advertising copy ; and there is a deep and fundamental reason social relations ~do not exist~ among americans outside of commercial relations.

mircea_popescu: why is it that pretty much the only thing two of them ever have to talk about is the latest ad and the only reason they can possibly meet is to try and sell each other tupperware, or try and sell each other out to whatever ?

BingoBoingo: Then there's the enduring unfairness that Jack Keefe's dollar is as good as Tom Sawyer's and... what happened to the dollar between 1919 and 2019?

mircea_popescu: you know ?

mircea_popescu: 10 bucks a month rural rents.

mircea_popescu: 1930s as 1880s, fiddy years.

BingoBoingo: 40 bucks a month furnished city flat, and the bitch had the audacity to REFURNISH!

mircea_popescu: and of course, all sort of forgotten lulz, like say "I says I feel O.K. and I ain't afraid to pitch against Johnson and I ain't afraid to hit against him neither. Then Weaver says Have you ever saw him work? Yes, I says, I seen him in Chi. Then Weaver says Well if you have saw him work and ain't afraid to hit against him I'll bet you would go down to Wall Street and holler Hurrah for Roosevelt. I says No I wouldn't do that bu

mircea_popescu: t I ain't afraid of no pitcher and what is more if you get me a couple of runs I'll beat him."

mircea_popescu: (Sir Cashion walnut, for the curious, is most likely "circassian" walnut, aka plain and common walnut)

mircea_popescu: anyways. certainly provides well needed perspective for all sorts of local-flavour insanities. "the success and importance" of "social media", aka "for the first time ever the circumstance that we have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to say to each other doesn't seem as much of an impediment anymore!"

BingoBoingo: Then there's the saintly manner Gleason takes Jack and reshapes him into a rounded player without Jack even noticing

mircea_popescu: you know ? and the insanity of it is, my own harem informs me, that is ~exactly~ what gleason ~actually did~.

mircea_popescu: professionally, for a living, for thirty years.

mircea_popescu: this being, of course, the ~correct~ way to imagine things. jack keefe, for being an imaginary character, is actually super-authentic as well as meta-authentic.

mircea_popescu: and THEN, because no, this doesn't fucking end, does it, THEN you also know the future.

mircea_popescu: because these exact same white socks are gonna sell the world series, aren't they.

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo incidentally, did you also go "hmm... his wife returns, pregnant, after giving him the heave-ho... evidently not his kid"

mircea_popescu: only to discover that a) it's not fucking possible she got pregnant and ready to deliver in a single season and then b) actually count the months and discover a woman he married 2nd day after meeting mid-oct is delivering him allan's baby mid june ?

mircea_popescu: ie, she was ALREADY pregnant when they met.

mircea_popescu: a suspicious nature's no help against lardner. he's two steps ahead of all suspicion in his tower of shenanigan.

BingoBoingo: Not to mention how Gleason suffered the next year for not dumping Keefe in Oklahoma for the offseason himself

mircea_popescu: and THEN, in the vein of http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-31#1891044 you wonder ~why~ the big deal about lefthandedness ? was it because lo and behold, the trait is an extremely fine discerner of parenthood, in this specific context ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: it wasn't very much money at the time. at least not looking at it from an anachronistic perspective and from within a society where athleticism is the only nobility left.

BingoBoingo: It is also important to note that "stuff" is an important technical term with respect to the ball's movement in the air

mircea_popescu: ny socialite burned 10-20 a week "entertaining"

mircea_popescu: anyway. the idea that star athlete would be permitted at the table in society is "obvious" today, but was inconceivable 1919.

mircea_popescu: back then they had other merits to look to.

BingoBoingo: There wasn't much money or much run scoring. "Deadball era" is the term that was applied after the fact

mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo this isn't so, had major hold on kids.

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Major hold on kids, because low run count games are exciting

mircea_popescu: in fact, period baseball may at least claim the honor of being among the few sports to have lived the sportive ideal, all that jazz about "creating moral imperative in young minds" etc.

BingoBoingo: Home runs didn't much happen until after the world series was sold and derp came in to "fix" the game

mircea_popescu: what the fuck is that retarded brit poem about the oxford oarsmen that then get massacred in egypt, "and england is far" bla bla.

mircea_popescu: eh whatever it was. the idea being that some dude hearing the coxcomb going "play up" and then on the nile the same "play up" and heigh-ho ain't britain great for being dumb. something like that anyway.

mircea_popescu: THANKEE DARLINGS!

mircea_popescu: well, jack's outbox, but anyways.

BingoBoingo: It also amazes how much healthier the incentive structures are. For filling the stands and winning the City Series (a thing because owning the ballpark was a business) the bonus was a substantial percent of the player's celery. Today some Jewish kid is dicking around trying to get somewhere between 200-500 million USD guaranteed over the next decade.

mircea_popescu: celery ahahaha

mircea_popescu: hence serious business.

BingoBoingo: Indeed. Do the kids want to eat this winter or do they want to spend the winter digging holes back home

BingoBoingo: Naturally the question is moot, because Allan's bitches will blow it all on furniture

diana_coman: the way it reads now, Jan 14 update has a lot of things starting and then by Feb3rd nothing is heard of them at all

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: When do you anticipate having brain space/time available to revisit the mechanization thread? ☟︎

diana_coman: I suppose being "updates" you focused only on what changed in the week covered but A. it makes it very difficult to follow because there's no help to re-load Pizarro issues (maybe just a list of issues at the end with dates and carried over until issue fully addressed?) and B. if nothing happened on crucial issues, it's best to keep them pinging at least

BingoBoingo: I indeed focused on the changes. Everything about your proposal appears materially better than what I've been doing so far. Thank you for the constructive feedback, I'm going to implement it starting with the statement update.
