diana_coman: | asciilifeform, thanks! | [11:09] |
asciilifeform: | there's a whole bunch of weird stuff in gnat, some of it potentially plunderable, some -- dunno -- e.g. a ~complete implementation of SNOBOL | [11:10] |

billymg: | first of all, apologies for cluttering the channel, i missed when my name was mentioned earlier | [11:14] |
billymg: | i don't mean to only lurk, i'm a long time log reader and am hoping i can be of service to any of the lords in their projects. by trade (as defined in fiat land at least) i am a ux designer and developer. happy to introduce myself in the channel if i am voiced again | [11:14] |

asciilifeform: | you pm it !!v yourdecryptedstring | [11:20] |
asciilifeform: | like that. | [11:21] |
billymg: | ah cool! | [11:21] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: nao tell us about yerself | [11:22] |
billymg: | i work for your typical sv company, which is my current connection to a fiat faucet, and for that reason i'd like to keep this identity separate from my fiat identity (to avoid an overzealous coworker who may stumble upon the logs trying to get me kicked for a CoC violation or whatever) | [11:25] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: i suspect that this hazard is largely mythical : asciilifeform for instance has blogged under his human name for >decade nao, and never 1nce encountered this problem | [11:26] |
billymg: | i have been working in the "tech industry" for about 10 years now, mostly as a ux designer but i can also produce code | [11:27] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: for so long as you avoid obvious hand-in-bear-trap in the vein of 'hi, i'm j. smith and i work for xyz corp and their product is liquishit' , generally nobody gives a shit | [11:27] |
billymg: | asciilifeform: ah, i understood that your situation was more independent, like that of a consultant/contractor? | [11:28] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: if you're ux/art expert, you will definitely want to be around when mircea_popescu wakes up | [11:28] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: not always | [11:28] |
billymg: | fair enough | [11:30] |
billymg: | art not so much (not a designer of the graphic/illustrator variety) | [11:30] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: in my experience, if yer fiat shop is looking for a reason to sack you, they'll find one whether or not you posted anyffing 'interesting' and if not, and you're actually doing something useful there for the pay, then not | [11:30] |
billymg: | but more of the software interface variety. although i can also make things look aesthetically pleasing | [11:31] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: you'll definitely want to speak to mircea_popescu & diana_coman , i suspect | [11:31] |
billymg: | but i have worked a lot with those in the graphic/illustration side, so can speak their language and manage them through projects if need be | [11:32] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: are you familiar with s.mg ? | [11:32] |
billymg: | that's the area of the republic i am perhaps least familiar with | [11:32] |
billymg: | i know it's the home of eulora | [11:32] |
billymg: | but not much more | [11:32] |
billymg: | if that's where the priority is though, then it would be great to help out there | [11:33] |
asciilifeform: | as i understand that's who ~might~ be interested in ui expertise | [11:34] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: be sure to stick around when mircea_popescu wakes up, and have portfolio of some kind for him to see | [11:34] |
asciilifeform: | ( hopefully you have an example of ui work that aint secret ) | [11:34] |
billymg: | i can pull together some older examples, will think about where to host/publish | [11:37] |
billymg: | more recently i was running the design operation for the company though | [11:37] |
BingoBoingo: | billymg: You probably want to hang out in #eulora | [11:39] |
BingoBoingo: | Meanwhile in national news: Snake! http://archive.is/OOW1J | [11:39] |

mircea_popescu: | you have no idea (in fact, i am sure no human can form idea, as an attempt from first principles) what the frisco atmosphere is like these days. | [12:21] |
mircea_popescu: | they literally caged ~50k monkeys who have nothing to do all day. king of the flies is a joke, these are adults (well...) not highschoolers and tens of thousands not hundreds. | [12:22] |

asciilifeform: | neato. | [12:48] |
mircea_popescu: | (immature and overspicy, but then again they're not koreean) | [12:48] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: prolly this is obvious, but i'ma remind for the record : whatever you do, dun lose yer pgp key. it's your only connection to the wallet, pizarro, wot . nothing can be done for folx who lose key. | [12:58] |
mircea_popescu: | well, folks who personally know other folks can beg for a rebirth cert from those other folks. not that it fixes everything. | [12:59] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: the only way to ever change a key is to 1) sign with old 2) ask trinque politely. there are no 'emergency resets'. | [12:59] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: right, but this is not to be relied on. and only even in principle could work for close meatspace associates of existing l1 folx. | [12:59] |
mircea_popescu: | in any case, even if i say "basfii-liceform is actually asciilifeform 's new key, he managed to lose the old one", you'll be stuck speaking from the new name and depending on everyone evermore both a) encountering that notice and b) giving a shit, to jump the gap. | [13:01] |
asciilifeform: | aha | [13:01] |
billymg: | asciilifeform, mircea_popescu: understood | [13:01] |
asciilifeform: | losing key is the ultimate 'coarse error of pilotage', and it's happened before, so worth mentioning to all n00bz. | [13:01] |
mircea_popescu: | i thought it's "gross error" | [13:02] |
asciilifeform: | right, prolly better engl. | [13:02] |

mircea_popescu: | billymg this is altogether an open question. | [13:05] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: intensely personal matter. put it where 1) you'll find it, and can decipher 2) nosy third parties, won't | [13:05] |
billymg: | fair enough | [13:05] |
asciilifeform: | billymg: for some , ciphrogram printed on drum printer for other folx -- burn a 1980s rom chip and put in a crate of 9000 identicals for yet others -- memorize very deeply personal preference | [13:06] |

asciilifeform: | billymg: you may also take an interest in http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1762 , tho the mechanism relies on friendship with existing l1 folx , and is considered experimental ( it is a means of insuring against catastrophic crypto breaks ) | [13:12] |
BingoBoingo: | mircea_popescu: I find it entirely natural and to reputation's credit that it would have puta | [13:13] |

BingoBoingo: | I think they also might have a zoo over there | [13:24] |
BingoBoingo: | Fellow could have hitched a ride on a truck | [13:25] |
mircea_popescu: | snake can be very sneaky, but usually younger / adolescent males. this dude seems quite adult, i'd expect moar territorial with hissings and whatnot. | [13:25] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: my recollection is that circus snakes are typically 'fixed', de-venomed. if was 'pet', then prolly belonged to hindu fella | [13:29] |
asciilifeform: | BingoBoingo: in orcistan where zoo snake still has glands, prolly the war museum has shells with live fuse still in, betcha | [13:33] |
mircea_popescu: | usually... who knows. i can't tell from pic iof still has his lol | [13:33] |
BingoBoingo: | Well, Carrasco where the fellow was found is one of the "richer" barrios | [13:34] |
asciilifeform: | incidentally, erry so often, a critter untypical for $region turns up, having stowed away in asian shipping container | [13:34] |
asciilifeform: | it's how we got those pestilential stink-beetles here in washingtonistan | [13:34] |
* asciilifeform | when reads of 'venomous snake found', inevitably thinks of conan doyle's 'speckled band' | [13:36] |

BingoBoingo: | Well, shipping container would be on the other side of the city. Could be airplane passenger | [13:38] |
BingoBoingo: | hitchhiked on landing gear, fell when doors opened | [13:38] |
mircea_popescu: | lmao | [13:38] |
asciilifeform: | ( raccoon, to euro folx, can look like exotic fairy tale beast, but it's effectively a dog-sized rat , can chew hole straight through the typical north ameristani wooden house ) | [13:39] |
BingoBoingo: | Well, location of being found lines up with airplane approach path | [13:39] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform that's ok, euros don't build like that. | [13:40] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: they have fields tho. and it apparently knows how to level a hectare/day, like boar | [13:40] |

BingoBoingo: | <asciilifeform> ( raccoon, to euro folx, can look like exotic fairy tale beast, but it's effectively a dog-sized rat , can chew hole straight through the typical north ameristani wooden house ) << Latinas apparently view mapache (aka. trash panda) as mystery critter and protagonist of children's stories | [13:40] |

asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu inb4. | [17:35] |
mircea_popescu: | introduced in 2001. would explain why yt blisfully unaware. | [17:35] |
asciilifeform: | ( removed in favour of ~what~ , i do not presently know ) | [17:35] |
mircea_popescu: | well... maybe 12 characters. | [17:35] |
asciilifeform: | lol | [17:35] |
mircea_popescu: | since we're doing this... "BUGS | [17:36] |
mircea_popescu: | Never use mktemp(). Some implementations follow 4.3BSD and replace | [17:36] |
mircea_popescu: | XXXXXX by the current process ID and a single letter, so that at most | [17:36] |
mircea_popescu: | 26 different names can be returned. Since on the one hand the names | [17:36] |
mircea_popescu: | are easy to guess, and on the other hand there is a race between test‐ | [17:36] |
mircea_popescu: | ing whether the name exists and opening the file, every use of mktemp() | [17:36] |
mircea_popescu: | is a security risk. The race is avoided by mkstemp(3)." | [17:36] |
mircea_popescu: | let me guess, this is like, the golden age of f&o&linus source ? | [17:36] |
asciilifeform: | oh gets better, watch : | [17:36] |
asciilifeform: | mkstemp : 'In glibc versions 2.06 and earlier, the file is created with permissions 0666, that is, read and write for all users. This old behavior may be a security risk... ...More generally, the POSIX specification of mkstemp() does not say anything about file modes...' | [17:37] |
mircea_popescu: | why are we importing this turdology again ? | [17:37] |
asciilifeform: | nobody's baked a proper one yet. tho i can't presently see why it'd be difficult | [17:38] |
phf: | posix mandates 6 x's, glibc 3 or more, etc. thanks bvt for catching it, though it seems like a solution is to roll own | [17:38] |
asciilifeform: | bvt: try voicing yourself ( pm deedbot, see the linked help ) | [17:38] |
mircea_popescu: | phf why do you even use it at all ? i mean... hash the time with a salt, that's your filename. no good ? | [17:39] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: potential headache with processes running on parallel cpu | [17:40] |
mircea_popescu: | why ? | [17:40] |
asciilifeform: | 2 get same time turd, then collide, neh | [17:40] |
mircea_popescu: | mtime ever returns the same value ? | [17:41] |
phf: | well, you still have to stat the filesystem to make sure you're not clobbering | [17:41] |
mircea_popescu: | fine, hash(mtime + urand bit + salt) | [17:41] |
mircea_popescu: | "bit" as in "little bit" colloquial. | [17:41] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: not that i see it as particularly likely, but afaik cannot be guaranteed not to, at least not w/out using inline asm, e.g. RDTSC on x86 | [17:41] |
mircea_popescu: | neither "add some entropy" nor "inline asm" strike me as bad solutions. | [17:42] |
asciilifeform: | iirc we actually had this thread, and asciilifeform concluded 'just get 256bits from FG, and you're golden' | [17:42] |
asciilifeform: | !#s gensym | [17:42] |
a111: | 26 results for "gensym", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=gensym | [17:42] |
mircea_popescu: | though i've never seen this thing where parallel execution gets same clock value. i half suspect it's hardware fucked to not. | [17:42] |
phf: | asciilifeform: to be fair musl's version is naive, it generates/stats in a loop until there's no collision, but theoretically you can still get a race condition. glibc i believe does all kinds of smart tricks to ensure that doesn't happen, but it's all magic | [17:42] |
bvt: | iirc mkdir does atomic 'create or error-out' | [17:43] |
mircea_popescu: | bvt unless "new" posix, that's what it is yes. | [17:43] |
asciilifeform: | bvt: thing is, there is 0 reason for this operation to ever eggog | [17:43] |
asciilifeform: | unless disk , i suppose, is full | [17:43] |
mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform many reasons. full media. | [17:43] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: right. but otherwise ~must~ succeed | [17:43] |
mircea_popescu: | full the other way (all possible names present) | [17:44] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: compute, for a laugh, the size of the disk where this can take place | [17:44] |
mircea_popescu: | were we discussing must or might ? | [17:44] |
asciilifeform: | ( it won't fit in galaxy ) | [17:44] |
mircea_popescu: | unless there's further constraints, such as "all random numbers are 4" | [17:45] |
asciilifeform: | lol or unless wings fall off... | [17:45] |
asciilifeform: | rng is 'jesus bolt' | [17:45] |
mircea_popescu: | yes well ? | [17:46] |
asciilifeform: | ( if rng is sad, absolutely anyffing can happen, and imho this oughta be understood by errybody ) | [17:46] |
mircea_popescu: | not what we were talking about! still error condition. | [17:46] |
asciilifeform: | oughta be a machine-halting eggog imho. | [17:46] |
asciilifeform: | 'evacuate nao' | [17:46] |

mircea_popescu: | asciilifeform this is an amusing symmetry, republican machine that halts if it can't touch entropy like imperial machine that halts if it can't phone nsa hq. | [17:48] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: imho it's the honest thing to do. red lamp, 'grab yer parachutes nao!!', claxons. | [17:48] |

mircea_popescu: | you're such a drama queen. | [17:48] |
mircea_popescu: | anyone told you before ? | [17:49] |
asciilifeform: | lol | [17:49] |
asciilifeform: | i'd be pretty interested to see FG spontaneously fail, what with the 4x redundant iron. | [17:49] |
asciilifeform: | ( and not as if it had no 'jesus bolt', it is sadly unknown to me how to make entirely without one ) | [17:50] |
mircea_popescu: | this'd make a great sf-ish story : archeologist in far future uncovers remains of lost intergalactic civilisation, | [17:50] |
mircea_popescu: | and manages to figure out how to use ONE artefact | [17:50] |
mircea_popescu: | and it's a fg | [17:50] |
mircea_popescu: | and it... fails. | [17:50] |
mircea_popescu: | FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ITS HISTORY | [17:50] |
asciilifeform: | well the current crop aint rated to last >25yrs, not without rewriting the eeprom anyway | [17:51] |
asciilifeform: | but let the archaeologist find the fyootoor maskrom'd one. | [17:51] |
mircea_popescu: | "my phd in ancient history is -- the reason X civilisation died. turns out, physics subtly cvhanged, rendering environment uninhabitable for them" | [17:51] |
asciilifeform: | eh imho that's a 'dog bites man'. i'm moar into 'man bites dog', i.e. ~habitable~ 'small' changes-in-physics... | [17:52] |
asciilifeform: | ( habitable-yet-measurable at any rate ) | [17:52] |
mircea_popescu: | yes well... great sf is always large scale dog bites man, imo. | [17:52] |
asciilifeform: | possib | [17:52] |
mircea_popescu: | scale so large, the dog sneaks up on you. | [17:52] |
mircea_popescu: | but maybe im too kafkian. | [17:53] |
* asciilifeform | scratches carapace thoughtfully | [17:54] |
mircea_popescu: | i suppose the dog&man permutation duality translates escape-or-enslave dilemma. | [17:54] |
mircea_popescu: | you know, boat crashes on amazon island. some of the sailors -- excited to be rescued. some others -- burned down rescuer ships. | [17:54] |
asciilifeform: | mircea_popescu: btw recall that we have red lamp already ( iirc i suggested claxon too, back in the design days, but mircea_popescu said enuff-is-enuff ) | [17:55] |
mircea_popescu: | imagine if fg had to come with semi tractor trailer. | [17:55] |
asciilifeform: | betcha it would, if usg.cisco.crapple had built it.. | [17:56] |
mircea_popescu: | anyway, point being -- lamp's enough, don't have to turn off the chap's computor. | [17:56] |
asciilifeform: | if i ever find that mine stopped, whole thing is going to dissection table, fg, comp, power supplies, etc | [17:56] |
mircea_popescu: | yes well. | [17:57] |

mircea_popescu: | funny how rereads work! so back in 2013, i think all http://trilema.com/2013/the-doctrine-of-total-depravity/ is "religion is bs". but today -- all it really says is that protestantism has fuckall to do with any kind of abstract faith. it was attempt to organize takeover from day one and naught else. the only protestant faith really is a sort of half-republic, "this is the instrumentality of taking over". nobody among their r | [21:23] |
mircea_popescu: | anks ever bothered to think through the http://trilema.com/2018/cu-cartile-pe-masa-un-fleac-l-au-ciuruit/#selection-231.3-239.4 "stump for the sitting" problem, it's true, but anyways. | [21:23] |
mircea_popescu: | "APOLOGIA PRO NOMINE MEO. Out of consideration (in part) to such readers as may read this book I have assumed a name by which they may refer to me (if ever he or she may wish to do so kindly) in the same manner at least twice running--a feat of pronunciation which few of my English acquaintances have performed with my natal name. But there is also another reason, considerate of the author. I have been told that there are writ | [21:49] |
