mp_en_viaje: so im sitting here on balcony after breakfast, watching the girly joggers file around the building, when suddenly "wtf is that plane doing ?! and why is it coming this way ?!" [09:24]
mp_en_viaje: something was definitely amiss, there's no commercial path this way, but thia airliner spent a minute or so driving straight towards us. [09:24]
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-10#1927269 << cool deal. [09:25]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-10 16:55:24 lobbes: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-10#1927241 << my process was indeed downloading the archived zips. I still have the data, though the archiver iron has been disconnected during my physical move to a saner location. This weekend I will get that iron back online and archiving [09:25]
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-10#1927275 << yes. cool. [09:25]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-10 22:19:18 asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-10#1927238 << the back/fwd links a la phf ? defo will go in (i'm aiming for 100% feature parity) but some time after the raw-export and similar knobs aimed to make redundant-backup installs easier [09:25]
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-10#1927285 << this was part and parcel of the original "make bots" decision, back in the day. [09:26]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-10 22:32:08 asciilifeform: logger prolly a notbad test. [09:26]
mp_en_viaje: it's a approachably non-trivial, multiply useful task. [09:27]

diana_coman: !!deed http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/9ezE9/?raw=true [13:27]
deedbot: accepted: 1 [13:27]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: deeded copy of #ossasepia log ^ [13:28]
asciilifeform: ty diana_coman , will eat [13:28]
diana_coman: thank you! [13:28]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: eaten!! [13:32]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: plz post, when you have time, the converter you used [13:38]
asciilifeform: i'd like to fill up #a, #p [13:38]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: also let's do same for #e (right nao entirely empty..) [13:38]
asciilifeform: spyked : how about #s . [13:38]
asciilifeform: ACHTUNG, PANZERS! logotron tree updated with 1) raw-line export knob 2) debug knob that actually turns off (prev. had mistake where it remained forever active) [14:23]
asciilifeform: example of usage for raw export : [14:23]
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log-raw/trilema?istart=1925000&iend=1925005 [14:23]
asciilifeform: currently set to disgorge max of 500 ln. in one pageload but is adjustible. [14:24]
asciilifeform: diana_coman et al ^ and for anyone who is thinking of running mirrors !! [14:24]
BingoBoingo: !Qlater tell trinque http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/pizarro/2019-08-11#1000032 << Fellow from earlier indeed appears to have his private key. When you get a chance to, please swing by #pizarro to see if you can help him debug his issue decrypting deedbot strings to !!v. [14:26]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 13:09:14 thimbronion: BingoBoingo: here is a re-encrypted copy of the encrypted message you sent me earlier as evidence I have the private key: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/Kkmtg/?raw=true [14:26]
lobbesbot: BingoBoingo: The operation succeeded. [14:26]
deedbot: http://deedbot.org/bundle-589663.txt [14:26]
asciilifeform: btw the debug knob fix appears to speed up by 50% or so [14:27]
asciilifeform: (previously thing was pretty busy barfing raw sqlisms to 'nohup'...) [14:28]
asciilifeform: e.g. http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-10 is still ~1.7s vs phf's 0.1 . but still sumthing. [14:29]
BingoBoingo: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927287 << Seems to support yesterday's end of aviation thread. Maybe by 2050 the 12 passenger cargo ship returns. [14:32]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 09:24:30 mp_en_viaje: something was definitely amiss, there's no commercial path this way, but thia airliner spent a minute or so driving straight towards us. [14:32]
mp_en_viaje: heh [14:33]
* BingoBoingo as child yet to see kindergarden had a favorite book. Included all sorts of aircraft. The only ones I remember with certainty were the SR-71, A-10, flying radar picket, and the loser F-4 that didn't even have a gun while pretending to be a fighter. [14:35]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: f4 , going by period accounts, had the mega-'feature' where had several modes of spin that were 'unrecoverable' , i.e. if(spin) catapult_now ! [14:36]
asciilifeform: 'disposable' machine [14:36]
BingoBoingo: Sounds like as good of a reason as any to start pushing a "fighter of the future don't need guns" meme [14:37]
asciilifeform: 'Вижу в небе белую черту, / Мой "Фантом" теряет высоту, / Катапульта - вот спасенье, / И на стропах натяженье,/ Сердце в пятки, в штопор я иду.'(tm)(r)('fantom', cult '80s ru item re subj) [14:38]
asciilifeform: subj, for aficionados strictly. [14:39]
asciilifeform: 'Вижу я как Эдвард с Бобом / Вдруг пошли встречаться с богом / Вижу ноль семнадцать на борту.' ( 'then i see, that Ed and Bob, went off to meet up with God, on the clock i see 0-17.' ) [14:41]
asciilifeform: i find it interesting that there appear to be 0 popular songs/rhymes about flying in usa, such that would post-date ww2 [14:42]
asciilifeform: in ru, '9000', and starring erry possible kind of flyer, from old man baron richthofen to 'somewhere far away is my native texas' fella above flying f4, to... whoever [14:44]
BingoBoingo: Gotta understand, US is largely German and misc. other serfs by mass. When the US needs a song to set to aviation footage they use Jesus stuff like Greenbaum's "Spirit In The Sky" [14:45]
asciilifeform: why is it then that luftwaffe had dozen songs, and usa started an' stopped with 'wing and prayer' circa 1942 ? [14:46]
BingoBoingo: Because Germany kept the good Germans [14:46]
BingoBoingo: When Germany sold cheap labor to US farmers in the 18th century they didn't send them cultured. [14:47]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i suspect deeper problem. somehow subj lost appeal in 'civilized' world... as a boy i dun think i met one single boy who did not at least on boy level wish he could become a jet pilot [14:47]
asciilifeform: it was ~equiv of current-day usa's 'be rock star' [14:48]
asciilifeform: maybe, defending motherland from demented martians is appealing, but strafing half-naked half-apes in jungle, desert, not so appealing ? [14:49]
BingoBoingo: Well, the couple that I know who did the Air ROTC and get to piloting ended up flying fat freight planes. [14:50]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: in asciilifeform's extended meatwot, there's a fella who signed up for this. flew in iraq, today -- hobo [14:51]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: there's reason to suspect that usa air corps dropped standards. even asciilifeform ( who was never remotely athlete, or otherwise suspected of qualifying for the work ) has , in dusty files from freshman yr of uni , paper spam from u.s. af, 'pleez consider sign up, guaranteed flight instruction!' etc [14:53]
asciilifeform: ... compare with su. [14:54]
snsabot: Logged on 2017-11-30 18:15:59 a111: Logged on 2016-12-08 18:28 asciilifeform: gymnasts may not be perfect example. when you have a role where the training per se is costly, you're stuck picking. e.g., pilots i recently read a quite interesting autobio, 'Обречены на подвиг' ('condemned to heroism', roughly) by su flying d00d / instructor / colonel. described how children having any physical imperfection, even tooth cavity, were mercilessly rejected from flight academy even if they passed all of [14:54]
asciilifeform: i suspect, because ultimately http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2017-11-30#1744918 . [14:55]
snsabot: Logged on 2017-11-30 18:04:55 asciilifeform: today jet man is more or less a programmer with uncommonly unpleasant working condition. [14:55]
BingoBoingo: "Guaranteed flight instruction" does not mean "fly our planes for us". It means "here are some waivers for a civilian general aviation course" [14:57]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i did not show up to where the spam asked, so do not know. but suspect that the whole orchestra is hard up for literate folx: [14:58]
BingoBoingo: Many of the mid-sized midwestern universitits have "aviation" courses for eating the ROTC folk's "guaranteed flight instruction" buxx [14:58]
asciilifeform: ... one time there was a sort of show at the uni, 'rotc' corps brought some old (vietnam?) artillery pieces. i walk up to one , the cranks -- surprisingly -- oiled, start to aim it at uni admin bldg. sargeant : 'they forbid us from permitting audience to touch these! but pleeeez come to the base, you can play with it all you like! and wontcha consider to sign up ???' [15:00]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: fwiw i pictured 'guaranteed instruction!' as, you come to the class and 'guarantee' at least will get to play 'f19' for coupla hr [15:02]
BingoBoingo: The folks I knew who went pilot did the lessons. The one I talked to more was constantly stressed, because only so many of the folks taking lessons and flying prop planes from Murphysboro, Illinois to Pinckneyville, Illinois and back would get the opportunity for further instuction on flying things that would earn them a bunk and meals. [15:05]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: in current era, it's a work that has all of the appeal of those safari tours where you shoot tame lion [15:07]
BingoBoingo: Anyways, Honda now makes and markets owner-operator jet with the motors mounted like in Star Trek. Notably absent are dorks wearing their fantsuits and lined up to buy them https://archive.is/SNaie [15:08]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: what's so novel re the pictured machine ? my ride from bucharest to timis was in a tub that looked quite like this, only slightly larger [15:10]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: and incidentally a 'greyhound'-type bus costs nao about 1mil. [15:11]
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: The novelty is in jets above wing and made by the folks who produce the "Honda supercub - most popular motor vehicle in history" [15:11]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: honda makes errything from chainsaw to asciilifeform's old tub auto to steamer . [15:12]
asciilifeform: it's 1 of those 'zaibatsu', was makin' samurai swords in 1700s, will be around in 2200s [15:13]
mp_en_viaje: actually it is kinda funny ~only usian song subjects are either jaysus or else "Ashley. You 're a fuckin' bitch. You left me for a guy named Lance. Ashley. You 're really stupid. Cos I was saving up to take you to France. Yeah, I was gonna take you to France." variants [15:17]
mp_en_viaje: nevermind fligjht, nevermind even something as simple as "stakhanov and his mighty pick" [15:17]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: actually in asciilifeform's head, archaetypical u.s. song is 'i am walrus' [15:17]
asciilifeform: i.e. ??!!!?? [15:17]
mp_en_viaje: i managed to go through ten years of trilema during which i found myself forced to reference french, italian, german, even canadian songs. [15:18]
mp_en_viaje: but somehow, never usian. [15:19]
BingoBoingo: Well, the thing is how they use the branding. Putting the Honda brand on it means mass market in the way VW meant mass market. Now here we are a century into powered flight and the mass market brand has a plane, but the mass market is even poorer than it was at the dawn of flight. No Honda Jet Airstrip in every gated subdivision. [15:19]
asciilifeform: there are a coupla modern ditties with 'educational' bent, e.g. 'a scrub is a guy who'll get no luvv from me!' [15:19]
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927339 << i dunno, captive monkeys make as good fucktoys as any martians. [15:20]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 14:49:24 asciilifeform: maybe, defending motherland from demented martians is appealing, but strafing half-naked half-apes in jungle, desert, not so appealing ? [15:20]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 'mass market' != konsoomer. greyhound bus also 'mass market', how many folx on street know what it costs. [15:20]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: the converter is awk one-liner but my logs were plain irssi (and the annoying bit was re time because hour:min only + day change only) still, if you think it may be of use, I'll post it, sure [15:21]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: recall mao's 'airplane is paper tiger, soldier can't surrender to it' [15:21]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: defo of use, plz post. [15:21]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i found that stock znc also stores only hour/min. and the historic timestamps being what they are, they are imho of rather questionable use. [15:22]
mp_en_viaje: wowza, someone else adding bash oneliners to log, ftw! [15:22]
asciilifeform: atm timestamp is only useful to group into days. [15:22]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: 'vdiff' was, 2015-2018, a bash 1liner.. [15:23]
asciilifeform: comp. w/ awk, sed. [15:23]
mp_en_viaje: aha [15:23]
mp_en_viaje: i am personally very fond of the bash one liner. imo it is sheer bash-illiteracy that makes all sorts of crapolade like python even appear "useful" [15:24]
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: If Honda Jet is not designed for hallucinated consumer market, why does it give the pilot "infotainment system", the marketing text is clearly targeted to pete_dushenski and not "Here is small jet for ad-hoc coverage of unpopular routes" [15:24]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: at one time asciilifeform wrote sometimes stateful multi-page proggies in bash. but does not post these, it was war crime [15:25]
mp_en_viaje: in practice, the only difference is-- longer. 1-500 char bash one liners just as expressive, powerful, comprehensible/maintainable as 1-5k loc python chunks. [15:25]
mp_en_viaje: items past 5k loc don't belong anyway. [15:25]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: if in fit of pique you write bash logbot, i promise to read [15:26]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, as a factual matter, all the http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-09#1926726 couldjust as well been one-liners, for a combioned weight of 100kb rather than 100mb [15:27]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-09 05:32:19 mircea_popescu: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-09#1926566 << "After pressing you will need to run npm install from the project directory in order to pull down just under 100mb of depshits in order for this to work." top keks. left you a comment, too. [15:27]
* asciilifeform historically found that any bashism that attempts a nontrivial stateful thing, in practice breaks teeth against nonstandard platformisms ('hey grep dun eat -blah on linux circa 2003' etc) and ends up working only where written [15:28]
* asciilifeform still, incidentally, waiting for report from anyone re whether asciilifeform's logotron in fact worx somewhere other than where-written... [15:29]
mp_en_viaje: nothing wrong with that. [15:29]
mp_en_viaje: https://github.com/Newbrict/bash-irc-bot/blob/master/bot.sh << turns out github has something that pretends to this [15:30]
mp_en_viaje: in typical scam hub fashion a) calls perl b) piles of .jar [15:30]
asciilifeform: calls perl << lol!!! [15:30]
mp_en_viaje: "A simple, modular IRC bot written in bash" [15:30]
mp_en_viaje: why the fuck are socialists such liars, anyway ? [15:30]
* asciilifeform tried, while schoolboy, to write 'B' compiler in awk... [15:31]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: you'd choke from laff if you knew what ~else~ can be found on shithub. [15:32]
asciilifeform: there's this endless parade of 'this is brainfuck in intercal in microshit-buildscript' etc [15:33]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/4bg2L/?raw=true << there, netcat frontend, loads no blobs. [15:33]
asciilifeform: aaaha but call netcat! [15:33]
mp_en_viaje: well yes. [15:33]
asciilifeform: netcat is almost an adult prog lang by self. [15:33]
mp_en_viaje: yup. [15:33]
mp_en_viaje: this is the true bashness of bash. [15:33]
mp_en_viaje: "aaa but call awk" of course "but awk is basically all of lisp in braindamaged impl" yup. [15:34]
asciilifeform: bash ~= bottle of epoxy. [15:34]
asciilifeform: one ~could~ make sofa from epoxy, but... why [15:34]
asciilifeform: ( edison, infamously, in his last yrs, was convinced that furniture from... ferrocement, is Teh Fyootoor ) [15:35]
mp_en_viaje: imo anyone who attempts to write bash irc bot other than netcat frontend either has nfi what the internet is and therefore never found netcat or has nfi what bash is and therefore doesn't understand why you don't do anything ~in~ it. [15:35]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i suppose for 'olympiad' could attempt 'irc client in bash' via 'telnet' rather than netcat [15:36]
mp_en_viaje: telnet blows [15:36]
* asciilifeform has buncha scripts from yrs ago that resemble this [15:36]
mp_en_viaje: and has, since like 1989 [15:36]
asciilifeform: blows but it's on 'vax' circa '86 , and yer sgi 'octane' etc, and 'netcat' aint [15:36]
mp_en_viaje: you seriously hack on anything w/o netcat running ? [15:36]
asciilifeform: not in last decade+ lol [15:37]
mp_en_viaje: so then wtf are we talking about! [15:37]
asciilifeform: tryin' to picture why someone would attempt nontrivial proggy in 'bash'. 1 traditional reason is that yer writing a worm. [15:37]
asciilifeform: (i.e. want run-anywhere-that-gives-shell) [15:37]
mp_en_viaje: "oh but mp, you bash via screen" yes ? "for olympiad, bash via trepanation" how about you bash your mother via anal hooks instead. [15:37]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: there's no link for next day on the imported bits (or uhm, can't quite tell where/why?) e.g. http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/ossasepia/2019-07-16 has no link although there is http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/ossasepia/2019-07-17 ? [15:38]
diana_coman: onth http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/ossasepia/2019-08-07 has the link? [15:38]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: will find out why [15:38]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: fixed, will cut errata patch [15:41]
diana_coman: ftr, here's my quick'n'dirty awk that did the trick: awk '/Day changed/ {Month=$5 Day=$6 Year=$7}! /-|<--|>/ {count++ sep="" w= Year " " Month " " Day " " $1 " " $2 " 00" if ($3 == "*") {pp=$3 sep $4 $4="" n=5} else {pp=$3 n=4} $1="" $2="" $3="" print count+998966 sep mktime(w) sep pp sep substr($0,n)}' [15:42]
diana_coman: worth noting that the month was at least numerical rather than "jul" and all that [15:42]
diana_coman: the 998966 above is lazy-hardcoded, calc based on asciilifeform's first id and the total lines in my log (i.e. so that the ids match perfectly *before* his log) [15:45]
mp_en_viaje: diana_coman, wd! [15:46]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: tree updated. [15:47]
asciilifeform: and on dulap. [15:47]
diana_coman: heh, it was...cathartic like that, awk-one-liner-does-the-job after ps-ton-does-nothing :)) [15:47]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: ty for the awk [15:48]
diana_coman: np thank you for the logger! [15:49]
asciilifeform: np [15:49]
asciilifeform: it's still, i dare say, a quite barbarous logger. ( in coupla wks i expect we'll find out whether in fact asciilifeform cracked the riddle of fleanode socket barf, incidentally ) but imho beats shit out of 'maybe, we have loggers? on warm weather days?' [15:50]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: barbarous or not, it's the only logger I have logging #ossasepia, you know? [15:50]
asciilifeform: and with raw export knob i expect it will be relatively painless to bake 'dumb' mirrors ( Troo mirror imho really oughta have own bot !! ) [15:50]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: i've been fucking fed up for year+ w/ having to beg people to 'pleez reset yer logger' etc [15:51]
asciilifeform: incidentally this thread opens up ancient q, of whether it'd make sense to bake a 'tmsr distributed storage' item [15:53]
asciilifeform: prolly would make moar sense to discuss 1nce we have luby/gossipd/etc [15:55]
diana_coman: I suspect so there's a shortage of building blocks, not as much of what to do with them [15:56]
mp_en_viaje: there's actually a shortage of intelligent people who aren't also correspondingly dumb to balance it out. [15:58]
mp_en_viaje: but i expect that'll be permanent. [15:58]
asciilifeform: atm we're doing quite a bit of hand-cranked mirrorism for this. but ultimately would make moar sense to have mechanism where gns(....hash....) spits out ~always~ e.g. diana_coman's log tape, or logotron.vpatch, or whatnot, for so long as can reach ~any~ tmsr machine [15:58]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 14:26:45 deedbot: http://deedbot.org/bundle-589663.txt [15:58]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, word. the whole thing dovetails into another angle of whole gns thing indeed. [15:58]
asciilifeform: ( and, ideally, w/out tcpism ) [15:58]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: ikr! [15:58]
asciilifeform: keep in mind, this is ~ancient~ tech, i can connect to e.g. 'emule' net (somehow alive for 20y!!) and put in hash and get e.g. copy of DERIVE.EXE, same one i used in '96 [15:59]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: as I'm still nitpicking the log, was it expecting some space re * and action as this doesn't seem quite ok: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/ossasepia/2019-07-20#999264 ? [15:59]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-07-20 15:36:00 diana_comanis: looking if shrysr is still breathing or totally shocked. [15:59]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: phf's did not include space in 'nick*payload' [16:00]
* diana_coman goes to look in raw [16:00]
diana_coman: asciilifeform: my tape has no space either [16:00]
mp_en_viaje: yeah, emule still around, beats gopher for stability. [16:00]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: lessee.. [16:01]
diana_coman: but it seems it took "diana_comanis" as nick? [16:01]
asciilifeform: this is indeed nogood, will have to find why [16:02]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: found why. [16:06]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: you put after the nick [16:07]
asciilifeform: and phf -- did not [16:07]
asciilifeform: diana_coman: plox to match phf's format, i'ma then snip out the imported tape and re-eat [16:07]
diana_coman: kk, will do [16:07]
asciilifeform: (plz to also re-deedbot) [16:08]
lobbes: http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-11-aug-2019#2547260 << sheesh, I spent a total of 10 hours I'd say on that znc-eater.py and diana_coman solves problem with one line of bash... wd indeed [16:08]
lobbes: incidentally, asciilifeform, I was pretty close to completion (unicode problem solved, and index implemented). Was going to polish it off this evening and genesis but... is it even needed anymore? [16:08]
lobbes: If not I'll turn my focus to something else [16:08]
lobbes: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927380 << I'm learning this lesson painfully [16:09]

mp_en_viaje: and incidentally i must say, lobbes 's old logger looks very pretty and moves fast. i always liked it. [18:19]

mp_en_viaje: the colorized names work well as an alternative to linecolors imi. [18:20]
mp_en_viaje: imo* [18:20]
asciilifeform: lobbes, mp_en_viaje : did feedbot actually emit irc lines in #e ? cuz i'm not seeing either http://logs.minigame.biz/2019-08-03.log.html#t14:41:25 or http://logs.minigame.biz/2019-08-06.log.html#t16:55:36 or http://logs.minigame.biz/2019-08-07.log.html#t19:00:04 in mine ? [18:20]
lobbes: they are all static pages too. Only time a db query happens is in the search [18:21]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, i do. [18:21]
mp_en_viaje: lobbes, yeah you know, can this not be rescued ? i dunno why exactly you're so down on it, but wtf, pretty static pages logotron ftw. [18:21]

mp_en_viaje: http://logs.minigame.biz/search/?q=hurr << search moves fast too. [18:22]
asciilifeform: i'd like to find out what gives re snsabot in #e [18:23]
lobbes: mp_en_viaje: well, I still want to complete my own logotron. if there is an interest in a redone version of that old logger, perhaps I can respec [18:23]
asciilifeform: why lobbes has these feedbot ticks and i not ?? [18:23]
mp_en_viaje: http://logs.minigame.biz/2016-09-28.log.html << so, so fast on long days too [18:23]
asciilifeform: #e was tuned in at initial boot, it was not late addition [18:23]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, i can't imagine ? [18:23]
asciilifeform: so far only can see that 1) bot is there 2) no missed lines in any other chan 3) logs when i shat there just now 4) indicates that is 1st log line in #e since tuned in [18:24]
mp_en_viaje: lobbes, maybe you could just make your new logotron use the old ~format~ for spitting out html files ? the format itself must be portable neh ? [18:28]
lobbes: mp_en_viaje: yeah, I think I might just do that. Make a simple parser that eats (perhaps even from the logbot db) and spits out html. I'll have to think on it [18:31]
lobbes: not 100% sure yet how this'd go [18:32]
mp_en_viaje: wait no, i mean... [18:32]
mp_en_viaje: ok im fully confused. were you making a new logbot or not anymore ? [18:32]
lobbes: I was going to make a logotron that displays loglines on a www. The logbot itself is already published (the one made by trinque/ben_vulpes) [18:34]
mp_en_viaje: right. [18:35]
lobbes: now, I could make a logotron that either displays lines from that db, OR from ZNC logs/irssi logs [18:35]
lobbes: in my spec before, I was going for something that took the data from the logbot db [18:36]
lobbes: however, I'm wondering if there is value in just having something that just spits static files in a colorized format (ala the old eulora logger) [18:37]
lobbes: vs, say, something that queries the db on viewing each log page [18:37]
mp_en_viaje: here's what i don't understand : [18:37]
mp_en_viaje: you wrote, at some point, the current item, lobbesbot / http://logs.minigame.biz/ [18:38]
mp_en_viaje: this works well it looks pretty it is well stable and so on. [18:38]
mp_en_viaje: then you decided to re-write it because i dunno why. then you decided to not rewrite it anymore, because too much work. [18:38]
mp_en_viaje: a) why not genesis the item as is ? b) what exactly is the problem with it anyways ?! [18:39]
asciilifeform: re #e, thread here re snsabot [18:39]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 18:31:54 asciilifeform: well no this is a potentially catastrophic bugola [18:39]
asciilifeform: i'd like to continue it here, if mp_en_viaje dun object [18:39]
asciilifeform: ( given that it aint euloristic as such ) [18:39]
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/eulora/2019-08-11#1000056 << rright, that's the interesting part [18:40]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 18:39:43 mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, but #eulora is open, can join with no reg [18:40]
asciilifeform: i'm gonna believe all the folx with raw logz tho, the bot evidently wasn't actually ~there~ until last reset [18:40]
asciilifeform: this ain't the 'at&t five nines'(tm)(r) level of weatherproofiness that we want ! [18:41]
asciilifeform: and gotta fix! [18:41]
asciilifeform: seems like http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/eulora/2019-08-11#1000055 is the set of possible pills [18:42]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 18:38:49 asciilifeform: there are 3 possible pills : 1) increase delay (and there is no guarantee from fleanode re what suffices) 2) do as ben's bot did, and await the fleanode-specific 'you've been authed' string when connecting 3) perform test re which chans we are in, when connected, and retry until the set of which-chans is equal to the config'd set [18:42]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, you can always /userlist see what happesn ? [18:42]
mp_en_viaje: should produce list of asciilifeform [~asciilife@unaffiliated/asciilifeform ] ov=00 away=0 lt=214 etc [18:43]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: this only worx when in a chan neh [18:43]
mp_en_viaje: well /userlist #channelname [18:43]
lobbes: mp_en_viaje: regarding a) it is because even if genesis-ed the user would need to install and use pip >> http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-07-28#1925233 [18:43]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-07-28 13:41:45 lobbes: Chiefly because in order to even install the heathen python coad, you need to first install and use "pip", which is dubious in its own right (see their 'mandatory code of conduct' for starters: https://www.pypa.io/en/latest/code-of-conduct/) [18:43]
lobbes: mp_en_viaje: regarding b) I see your confusion. I was talking to diana_coman in #o earlier and I realized I have this bad habit of not really explaining my causes for action, nor my causes for changing course. This leads to confusion all around [18:44]
lobbes: I'll see if I can't make a blog post about this describing the ugliness under the hood of the current #e logger [18:44]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: dun seem to work when used on chan that you aint in [18:44]
lobbes: I'll brb in any case so asciilifeform can debug [18:44]
asciilifeform: unless i'm doing it wrong [18:44]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: tho i suppose this is already enuff to litmus whether in-$chan or not [18:44]
mp_en_viaje: lobbes, moreover, your reasoning is quite jumpy. who said that the only possible use of genesis'd material is to run it as-is ? conceivably someone might want to import... your html scheme [18:44]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i'ma have to add this, to the bot, else it cannot be considered automatic [18:44]
mp_en_viaje: if it's there this can be done, if it's not there this... can't be done. maybe someone knows how to take pip out of the process. if it's there they'll do it, if not there they won' chase you. and so following. [18:45]
mp_en_viaje: publish always beats unpublish. [18:45]
asciilifeform: ( until then, errybody plz poke asciilifeform with stick if ever notice that bot is awol !!! ) [18:45]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, but that's the point... if you're not in it... dun work... ergo you know you're not in. [18:45]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: aha, this oughta suffice [18:45]
mp_en_viaje: can always /users to see if ircd responds or not [18:46]
mp_en_viaje: "* 5238 6368 :Current local users 5238, max 6368 * 82886 94773 :Current global users 82886, max 94773" sorta answer. [18:46]
mp_en_viaje: and so on. [18:46]
asciilifeform: ( for folx who did not read the genesis -- snsabot is 100% 'naked' sockets , dun include any 'irc libs', so entirely possible that i missed some other fleanode wart ! ) [18:46]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: correct current bot actually makes no attempt to determine whether in fact fleanode is on other end, or 'netcat' and silence [18:47]
asciilifeform: this was deliberate, so can work with e.g. a temporarily-disconnected znc on the other end [18:47]
asciilifeform: but prolly a liability in re reliably connecting to fleanode [18:47]
mp_en_viaje: either way you wish to run it, i'm just stating it's there if useful. [18:48]
asciilifeform: i currently suspect that if i fix this, will lose zncism . can make knob. [18:48]
mp_en_viaje: lobbes, and more importantly ... if you have it published today to lookat it in 2029 you can and if not you... can not. and so on. [18:49]
mp_en_viaje: in other lulz : anne heche got genital herpes from her father, who "sexually teased" her until she got her period or thereabouts -- this entirely has nothing to do with her "lesbian"-ism jessica alba got genital herpes from some indian dude paris hilton also got, possibly from dog britney spears got it as a teen pamela anderson, lindsay lohan (doh)...

mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, no, correct way to do this is... as cache. [18:51]
mp_en_viaje: first time any page is asked for, first look if there already, if not, shit it out. [18:52]
mp_en_viaje: so WHAT if you end up with 500 versions of "same" page, hurr. [18:52]
mp_en_viaje: can invalidate cache any time yo uwish also, to "fix" [18:52]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i actually have cache, simply snipped out of genesis ver, need a few moving gears to invalidate it on 'tail' ('current') page of log when someone speaks [18:52]
mp_en_viaje: see ? [18:52]
mp_en_viaje: it ~makes sense~ to have it as html on disk in this particular application. [18:53]
mp_en_viaje: rather than as non-htmlized in-ram [18:53]
mp_en_viaje: because of major apache synergies. [18:53]
asciilifeform: these caches live in ram ( 'flask' dun offer a disk cache, and it'd nuke the ssd at any rate ) [18:53]
mp_en_viaje: for the application of logger as we use it, it's immensely better to keep the cache as html files on disk. [18:54]
asciilifeform: caching isn't magic pill against slow ugh if you want backlinkage to work as-expected you end up invalidating pretty much all cache just about erry time someone replies to log line [18:54]
mp_en_viaje: notrly. [18:54]
asciilifeform: (granted snsabot/www dun presently do backlinks at all) [18:54]
mp_en_viaje: the bulk of the cache are historical pages. [18:55]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: say i reply to yesterday's line from mp_en_viaje . nao the cached copy of yesterday's log is logically invalid (dun have the backlink to today's reply) [18:55]
mp_en_viaje: yes. [18:55]
mp_en_viaje: say you don't reply, just follow a link, a situation 100x more useful. [18:55]
mp_en_viaje: it didn't have to be recalculated, was on disk. [18:55]
mp_en_viaje: saved 99% of all the sweat. once you get more than .05 hits/s this will matter. [18:56]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: so when does the proggy regen the x-y-z.html on disk ? [18:56]
mp_en_viaje: whenever they're linked [18:56]
mp_en_viaje: the whole point re logs is they don't really change except at the tip. like blockchains. [18:56]
asciilifeform: theoretically this is Right Thing, mp_en_viaje . only headache is that 'flask' etc shitshow doesn't offer any path to it. [18:57]
mp_en_viaje: yes well. [18:57]
mp_en_viaje: kinda why i was admiring his "bad" logger. [18:57]
asciilifeform: hence wai phf's method was Right Thing, and mine not [18:57]
mp_en_viaje: has some aspects of unmatched goodness. [18:57]
* asciilifeform not read how lobbes did log, but from context supposes 'produced dir of static htm's as it went' [18:58]
mp_en_viaje: well, i expect he'll publish it next week sometime, then can read. [18:58]
asciilifeform: aha [18:58]
mp_en_viaje: his logger looks well the fuck better than all the others, tbh. www-side i mean. [18:58]
asciilifeform: i like the colours [18:58]
asciilifeform: ( personally would leave out the join/partisms but perhaps that's just me ) [18:59]
mp_en_viaje: could even be knob [18:59]
mp_en_viaje: ?parts=yes [18:59]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: this gets sticky. if knobs (incl. my multiline-select knob) suddenly yer disk cache dun do you good [18:59]
mp_en_viaje: (it is evidently useful to ~save them~, as you found out yourself earlier in #eulora, that the search included them helped you) [18:59]
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, pages are 50kb at a time. takes a whole lotta them to make a difference. [19:00]
asciilifeform: ( you'd have to cache all possible combos of knobbage, per page ) [19:00]
mp_en_viaje: yes, but ~only when called~ [19:00]
asciilifeform: rly there oughta be a apache-end util for this, but iirc mp_en_viaje actually went an' tried 9000 of'em and all were duds [19:01]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: what was it you had last tried, iirc 'squid' ? [19:01]
mp_en_viaje: i don't even fucking rememberr. [19:02]
mp_en_viaje: did i discuss this on trilema ? [19:02]
asciilifeform: i quite distinctly recall that it didn't work worthashit, and mp_en_viaje smashed a keyboard or 2 [19:02]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje iirc was defo a #t article [19:03]
mp_en_viaje: hm [19:03]
asciilifeform: ( there's no ~logical~ reason for it not to work, it's quite evidently Right Thing simply happened that all the heathen utils for the job, were liquishit ) [19:03]
asciilifeform: it remains the case that this is distincly job for the www server frontend, tho, and not individual proggy behind it [19:04]
asciilifeform: in fact half the point of having that 'apache' to start with [19:04]
mp_en_viaje: you don't mean like http://trilema.com/2013/if-youre-using-wp-super-cache/ or such, do you ? [19:04]
mp_en_viaje: php "cache" plugins for wp are very shit. [19:05]
asciilifeform: nope. moar recent [19:05]
asciilifeform: '15 iirc [19:05]
asciilifeform: fwiw i also never was able to get 'squid' to work, and phuctor is cached on 'flask' end (caches expire in 5min, moar than enuff for when some bozo links one on reddit etc) [19:05]
mp_en_viaje: http://trilema.com/2015/the-sad-story-of-me-sniffing-varnish/ ? [19:05]
asciilifeform: aha!!! [19:05]
asciilifeform: it [19:05]
asciilifeform: was 'varnish' . [19:06]
mp_en_viaje: this explains it, as i never ran squid to my memory anywhere [19:06]
asciilifeform: there's coupla dozen of these. afaik none actually work w/out bucket of holy water and incantations [19:06]
* asciilifeform brb:meat [19:07]
mp_en_viaje: varnish can be useful, but yes, bucket. [19:07]
mp_en_viaje: imo not so useful for the case here, either. [19:07]
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i'm starting to think, that asciilifeform is doomed to write a www server [20:33]
asciilifeform: same as was doomed to write logger [20:33]
asciilifeform: seems to be the experience, that if you want item that actually worx, gotta go an' write... [20:34]
asciilifeform: looked even at ancient rusty 'five nines' behemoths that apparently work , for potential dusting off a la gnat. [20:36]
snsabot: Logged on 2017-03-30 10:38:11 asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i will also nitpick : 'erlang' does not belong in the list, it was a 1980s product that worked quite well in its industrial niche (large telco switches) but was later stolen and used as a totem by the folx from yesterday's thread ( http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-29#1633873 ) [20:36]
asciilifeform: ^ example, 1980s swedish item where process migration and realtime redundant computation on multiple irons supposedly worked [20:39]
snsabot: Logged on 2017-03-30 10:50:38 asciilifeform: trinque: erlang wasn't simply about 'uptime', or even 'no pointer arithmetic', it also was the only case i know of where process migration actually worked [20:39]
asciilifeform: i.e. could demand from the log bot to verify that it joins chans, w/out stopping it [20:40]
asciilifeform: ... or, on the other end of things, snobol for string-wrangling instead of regexps... [20:41]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-05-07 22:06:11 asciilifeform: nao! there ~were~ text processors designed by thinking people, where it ~was~ possible to write a readable proggy with predictable failure conditions. e.g. 'snobol'. but these, buried under 30yrs of sediment, will take serious archaeology to unearth. [20:41]
asciilifeform: * deedbot has quit (Remote host closed the connection) << trinque ? [20:41]
asciilifeform: trinque werentcha gonna move it ? [20:41]
* asciilifeform bbl again : moar meat [20:42]
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: For quite a while now deedbot has been quit/joining right around 0:00 UTC [20:43]
BingoBoingo: Ah, how much simpler the world was on its surface a decade ago http://trilema.com/2009/treceti-pe-open-source/ [20:44]
BingoBoingo: !Qlater tell spyked re: http://daimon.me/blog/2012/05/winamp-ruleaza-cat-si-doua-vorbe-despre-linux/#comment-8147 the music player for linux is cmus [20:50]
lobbesbot: BingoBoingo: The operation succeeded. [20:50]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i can't resist to ask, didja actually work through the ro, or relying on googlefish etc ? cuz if it's the latter, yer certain to step on some sharp nails [22:33]
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927722 << i have a suspicion that trinque set it to cycle at 0hrs (in frustration re socket wedge ?) [22:34]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-08-11 20:43:48 BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: For quite a while now deedbot has been quit/joining right around 0:00 UTC [22:34]
lobbes: speaking of deedbot down, I can't deed, but new output of #eulora ZNC logz at: http://logs.minigame.biz/eulora_log_2015_to_2019.txt.asc [22:35]
lobbes: this time with fixed action lines [22:35]
asciilifeform: lessee [22:36]
lobbes: though still puzzled why last clearsigned version didn't deed... I checked a few more times for sanity and the sig verified for me [22:36]
lobbes: wonder if just because it is ~15 MB... [22:36]
asciilifeform: verifies here [22:37]
lobbes: ty for checking. Eases my paranoia a bit [22:37]
asciilifeform: sigs are for to verify, they aint decorative, lol [22:42]
asciilifeform: lobbes: i'm getting buncha utf8 eggogs when trying to eat in the staging box [22:45]
asciilifeform: will paste list of indices shortly [22:45]
lobbes: gross, okay. [22:46]
lobbes: I have a feeling it may be from spam-fest 2018 >> http://logs.minigame.biz/2018-09-19.log.html#t16:42:16 [22:46]
lobbesbot: Logged on 2018-09-19 16:42:16: <oida5> fan іѕ nഠt doing Allah iѕ dоⅰng [22:46]
asciilifeform: ugh quite a few [22:46]
asciilifeform: 9832341532548180*danielpbarron is legitimate corner case, will have to fix eater.py [22:50]
asciilifeform: however, lobbes , these all seem to contain mysterious unibarf [22:51]
asciilifeform: that chokes py's postgres feeder [22:51]
asciilifeform: lobbes: all seem to be 0xd7 spuriously in line somewhere [22:53]
asciilifeform: tho not always [22:53]
asciilifeform: see e.g. idx 867691 [22:54]
asciilifeform: dafuq happened to this log, lobbes [22:54]
asciilifeform: where did it get shat out of ? [22:54]
asciilifeform: or see e.g. 869967 [22:55]
asciilifeform: typically lines containing numerics, are littered with bitrotted nonascii [22:55]
asciilifeform: ( and not, as one might expect, ru, or greek, etc. which 100% swallowed a+++ from phf's logs ) [22:55]
asciilifeform: lobbes: i am not gonna try to clean this, unless there is no other log, i suspect something unspeakable happened to it somewhere in transit to my desk [22:56]
asciilifeform: lobbes: plox to describe ~exactly~ how you got it when you get chance [22:56]
lobbes: hmm, okay I will inspect and report back [22:57]
asciilifeform: i'm even surprised that gpg ate this [22:59]
lobbes: ftr, here is the current incarnation of the eater.py : http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/0DrbZ/?raw=true [22:59]
lobbes: just more to add to the 'python sux' pile I suppose (or perhaps just my coding sux pile) [23:00]
lobbes: and the logs it ate, for these logs: http://logs.minigame.biz/2018-09-19.log [23:01]
asciilifeform: there's no dispute that py sux [23:01]
lobbes: of course. pile exists after all! [23:01]
asciilifeform: lobbes: interestingly, the uni-spam aint where choked [23:01]
asciilifeform: it seems to ~all consist of actual people ( mircea_popescu et al ) discussing numbers [23:02]
asciilifeform: take a look at the listed indices [23:02]
asciilifeform: i.e. http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927740 defo not it [23:05]

lobbesbot: Logged on 2018-09-19 16:42:16: <oida5> fan іѕ nഠt doing Allah iѕ dоⅰng [23:05]
lobbes: that is odd indeed [23:07]
asciilifeform: the culprit will have to be found before this archive can be eaten, lobbes i suspect that the bitrot aint limited to uniturds [23:08]
lobbes: oh wow, yeah I'm seeing the bitrot in the ZNC logs I fed to the thing. Very weird. But ty for the list of indicies this will help [23:14]
asciilifeform: lobbes: there may be others after 983243 also (current proggy stopped there cuz null line, will fix in coming days, had nfi fleanode permitted lines of length 0) [23:14]
asciilifeform: err, 983234 [23:15]
lobbes: I'm going to do some manual cleanup of the ZNC logs that correspond to the indicies you mentioned at least. Noted on the 983234 stop point [23:23]
asciilifeform: lobbes: i recommend to instead find out how the fuck it got into this condition [23:30]
asciilifeform: ( how wouldja fix the numerics, what if the 3s were 7s etc ) [23:30]
asciilifeform: at the very least you'll want >1 indep. copy of the pertinent lines [23:31]
asciilifeform: ( from diff machines ) [23:31]
asciilifeform: we'll 'manual clean' if there is 0 other choice, but presently would rather know wtf happened to this thing [23:32]
asciilifeform: meanwhile, elsewhere, the 'chi non piscia in compagnia' anon in mp's comments apparently has this as his www ... [23:42]
asciilifeform: 'We Hunted the Mammoth is an ad-free, reader-supported publication written and published by longtime journalist David Futrelle, who has been tracking, dissecting, and mocking the growing misogynistic backlash since 2010, exposing the hateful ideologies of Men’s Rights Activists, incels, alt-rightists and many others.' [23:42]
asciilifeform: ... and epaulettes?! (i.e. long-time reader?) [23:44]
lobbes: asciilifeform: good point. re: your "if 3s are 7s" example, I already see what you mean... [23:59]
lobbes: As for *why* these have rotted so: I am not sure. My best guess is that it is because my current #e logotron does many copy operations per hour from the ZNC files (though this is just a stab in the dark I really don't know if this would cause bitrot) [23:59]
asciilifeform: climbing upstack, http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927615 << lobbes why is this ? i haven't encountered yet a pythonism that actually ~demands~ 'pip', they're all installable manually (and/or, on older gentoo boxen not yet hosed -- via 'portage' ) [23:59]

lobbes: Hopefully someone else has cleaner ZNC logs. But fwiw in the meantime, I've produced a list of the problem indicies/original logdate/loglines >> http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/3yWtw/?raw=true [23:59]
