| lobbes: | In other "the logs had it first", I just investigated a barf I received on an emerge and exclaimed "who are these orcs@gentoo.org that are masking gcc < 5.4??". I must've missed this thread entirely >> http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-30-dec-2017#2386430 | [00:01] |

| mircea_popescu: | but anyway, since we're doing astrophysics : the largest conceivable power plant / ecological disaster would be, of course, collapsing galactic objects (ie, stars) into galaxy cores (ie, black holes, practically). for instance, pushing the sun into saggitarius would conceivably yield a gross of about 10^40 or so J in a relatively short timespan. certainly wouldn't cost as much. (an intermediate step to this being http://trile | [00:01] |
| mircea_popescu: | ma.com/2016/how-to-fix-global-warming/ of course) | [00:01] |
| danielpbarron: | not only. there are supposed to be particle + anti-particle pairs showing up all over space, in most cases instantly colliding to produce energy for the next pair to form, except when spawned on the event horizon and only one falls in | [00:01] |
| Mocky: | i'm not seeing the partial seems like trying full integration | [00:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | danielpbarron, that is powered by the black star's angular mommentum. only noob black stars have any angular mommentum | [00:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | (in fact, the predicate for "Get a lot of mass in a little bit of volume" is entirely "push out a whole lot of angular mommentum") | [00:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | Mocky, they're not disposing of the bodies. | [00:03] |
| Mocky: | ahhhhh, that kind of absolutism | [00:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | yes. democracy fails to account externalities as a matter of course. see also http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-14#1783773 thread | [00:04] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-02-14 14:22 mircea_popescu: MEANWHILE, however, they have 100% unaccounted for the time externality. so basically it's a contest consisting of a guy without legs going about finding fault with people's fingers. because he's decided "legs don't count", and so as he has much better hands than the rest of those losers he should be captain of the football team. | [00:04] |
| Mocky: | fails to account because blinded by fantasy beliefs | [00:07] |
| mircea_popescu: | nah, not at all. fails to account definitionally, that's what it is. the fantasies are empty niche exploitation, coming much later. | [00:08] |
| mircea_popescu: | (sleep is a similar item -- it originally appeared as a learned behaviour to conserve energy and lower capture risk as it provided a niche CNS growth parasitized it, and so now oyu need to sleep though your fridge is full and there's no preditors threatening you) | [00:09] |
| mircea_popescu: | just so -- since socialism (or democracy, whatever, no difference between these terms) offers the "we'll ignore half the shit anyway" niche, the fantasy beliefs found a welcoming place to stay. | [00:09] |
| Mocky: | maybe blinded by pretense is a better way to say it then | [00:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | first blind, then pretense, because why not. http://trilema.com/2015/prophylaxis/#footnote_7_62778 | [00:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | understand what's at stake here : your theory proposes socialism is curable. no such luck irl, or in seinfeld's words, "when he's dead, he'll be relieved." | [00:17] |
| Mocky: | i see that my theory does propose that, yet I've never seen a socialist cured | [00:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | and if you had, i'd just say "he never really was" | [00:21] |
| Mocky: | no true scotsman | [00:21] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is the hitch uniting http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-23#1817337 and http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-24#1818277 : the observation that hte only functionally useful labels are ex-post-facto. | [00:22] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-23 03:22 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-23#1817310 << fucking can't have 1600s style "examinations on the doctrine of the faith", chiefly because of goedel's objection. our doctrine is not actually either complete or coherent. | [00:22] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-24 18:22 mircea_popescu: this is the sort of objection that can only be resolved by historians. | [00:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | Mocky, the problem with scotsman fallacy is that there's an unresolved duality. i don't propose that one's a) a scotsman for being born of scottish woman and AT THE SAME TIME b) a scotsman because not an irredeemable asshole. i'm just going with b, and that's logically sound. | [00:23] |
| mircea_popescu: | and there's a healthy helping of http://trilema.com/2015/causes-and-purposes/ in all of this : if your labels are ex-post-facto, you can't futurize on their basis lest you end up like the "global warming" muppets, "projecting" on "data" abvout the past that was extrapolated from the present. | [00:26] |
| Mocky: | that makes it sound like my theory could be proposing that while socialism isn't curable, maybe it can find the ones who "never really were" | [00:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | if you can distinguish between those who are pretending because they're blind already anyway and it costs them nothing to pretend and those who are pretending just to fit in, then yes. | [00:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | but removing the perceived positive value of fit (such as, by publicly burning "consensus" as in the imperial facade, as the republic has done) seems a large step in the right direction. | [00:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | prior to empire-of-idiots colonization in the shape of "sane safe and consensual" nonsense, bdsm world rested squarely on "there's no positive value to social fit". of course it was a lot smaller then. | [00:29] |
| mircea_popescu: | much like the faggots were a lot more numerous before the democratic party invaded them with a bunch of fake faggots. | [00:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | a lot less numerous* i mean. | [00:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | you know, pre 1980, back when gay culture was actually creative. | [00:30] |
| Mocky: | what's fake faggots? | [00:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | you know what tulpas are ? | [00:31] |
| Mocky: | like mentally created 'persons' | [00:32] |
| mircea_popescu: | right. can you explain the difference between sadism, as the clinically relevant psych term of art, and "sadism", ie, fake sadism, as the common discourse locus ? | [00:32] |
| Mocky: | no, i'm not familiar with clinical sadism | [00:33] |
| mircea_popescu: | alright. the recently mentioned andrei chikatilo is a textbook model. the man could not achieve an erection with either willing or unwilling partners he used stabbing as an erection substitute. | [00:34] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is fetishism, in all cases : a ~substitute~, covering for an absence. a sadist isn't one who slaps the woman around if she talks out of turn nor one who enjoys pain and suffering. a sadist is one who can't function normally, and uses a highly structured substitute behaviour. these two factors, in order. | [00:35] |
| mircea_popescu: | the father who can't talk to his son, but enjoys "expressing himself" through their fishing together is just as mentally broken as a proper sadist, just in a different spot of what'd be a normallty working brain. | [00:36] |
| mircea_popescu: | (and these -- they're common, among white people). | [00:36] |
| mircea_popescu: | now back to fake homosexuality : human sexuality is a learned behaviour. proper homosexuality is an inability to learn, akin to dyslexia or lefthandedness. fake homosexuality is the exact contrary, a lot of "what if"ism and "provemewrong"ism and so on. a social, rather than biological phenomenon. | [00:38] |
| Mocky: | like that naacp 'leader' who identified as black | [00:39] |
| mircea_popescu: | there's no curiosity about "what it'd be like" to stab people in the sadist he arrives at it, through a very personal dysfunctional process. and there's no curiosity about "what it'd be like" to "be black" or "be gay" or etcetera. when's the last time you met an african who was wondering what'd it be like to be born in africa. hurr. | [00:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | (dysfunctional here isn't even a value judgement sexuality is a function of anatomy, a portion of phisiology, like breathing. if you're asphyxiating it doesn't follow you're a bad person thereby.) | [00:41] |
| mircea_popescu: | "african-americans" however are universally "curious about what'd it be like", and for the obvious reason : they're about as african as i am. | [00:44] |
| trinque: | these, the identified-as-black, hip-gay, feminist-ally and the rest, always struck me as having missed a developmental stage | [00:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyway, prolly worth the mention, since spoke of chikatilo : he originally did two things : stabbed the victims, and enucleated them. | [00:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | midway, he stopped enucleating, but kept on stabbing. | [00:46] |
| trinque: | the one where they get their ass whipped by an adult male for lying | [00:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | once caught, it came out that he was gouging the eyes out ~because "he had heard that the image of killer remains on body's retina"~ he stopped, becauise he figured out it's an old wives' tale | [00:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | he somehow ~didn't~ similarily figure about stabbing young girls. | [00:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | why not ? | [00:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque, it's my read also. retarded, in the proper sense, like 9yo that can't tie own shoes. | [00:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | but i'm not persuaded by the lying-beating coupling. | [00:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | violence is extremely effectual at curing high level delusions -- every "princess" reverts to sanity after a stint in the dungeon. it's not particularly effectual at curing lower level issues, beating kids for suttering doesn't work. | [00:48] |
| mircea_popescu: | bedwetting, perhaps the most eminent example towards your line, also doesn't work. though conceivably hanging bedwetters would work, but in the social sense -- be rid of them. | [00:49] |
| mircea_popescu: | though from experience, talking to the kid works actually a whole of a lot better. just, you need to be capable of actual talk. so hanging ~the parents~ may also be effectual. | [00:50] |
| mircea_popescu: | (and no, i don't mean "talk to kids ~anbout bedwetting~, what a stupid fucking subject. i mean take them out for a sundae and do something interesting or other, whatever the spur of the moment provides.) | [00:54] |
| trinque: | hmmm, I can see it. in the personal anecdote, I wasn't overflowing with loyalty for anyone either. | [00:54] |
| mircea_popescu: | it's a sad state, for a kid growing up. | [00:55] |
| mircea_popescu: | have nothing it'd die for, really ? why even bother growing up. | [00:55] |
| mircea_popescu: | (this is the mechanism that resolves infantile cowardice, ftr : sooner or later the kid goes, "fuck it, none shall pass".) | [00:56] |
| Mocky: | this next generation is going to be epic, with the way schools are now, and raised by ipads and netflix | [00:59] |
| mircea_popescu: | oya. | [01:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | cheapest livelihood anyone ever had. | [01:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | previous discussion re leverage with alf aside it's a wonder if they can make one man out of 1k of the neets tied together. i have my doubts. so it's not just "need leverage" on this side -- the empire graciously provides anti-leverage out of its own meat. | [01:01] |
| mircea_popescu: | 1000 dollars today, ie one 1985 dollar and 1:1mn leverage today, meaning you can do the work of 1k 1985 people. | [01:01] |
| Mocky: | why does wrapping zeks matter? | [01:06] |
| trinque: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-24#1818431 << because they're so valuable how could they not be | [01:07] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-24 19:50 mircea_popescu: much like byzantines imagined mongols come over to steal the "true cross" because it's so fucking valuable in their eyes. because how couldn't it be. and so on. | [01:07] |
| lobbes: | plus, reduces cost of keeping status quo for state | [01:08] |
| lobbes: | let fantasy tulpas flourish, fighting imaginary battles for 'purposes' | [01:09] |
| trinque: | seems like whatever "ruling class" the empire has missed a developmental step too | [01:10] |

| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 03:58 mircea_popescu: Mocky, you realise, everyone's model revolves around wrapping zeks. it's just that the democrats are (mostly, unexamiedly) partialists while we're absolutists. | [01:11] |
| mircea_popescu: | Mocky, well, if a problem's worth solving, it's worth solving well. neh ? | [01:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | why even bother with half-ass solutions. | [01:12] |
| Mocky: | right so what's the problem | [01:12] |
| mircea_popescu: | there was a problem ? | [01:13] |
| mircea_popescu: | or what do you mean ? problem for whom ? | [01:13] |

| ave1: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-24#1817983, yes something I need to learn. My current approach is too try something and see if that's it, but I wonder if suggestions or help can be beneficial in learning this? or should all of this be self effident like baking pastries http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-23#1488189 ?

| spyked: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-24#1818005 <-- it's a few (2-3?) weeks away from deployability. full report: basic functionality is pretty stable now (cl-feed-parser library was throwing random errors and wasn't fittable-in-head so I had to replace and rewrite a significant portion of the rss and atom parsing bits). I still need to implement a. self-voicing and b. an access control mechanism. | [04:51] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-24 15:38 trinque: I'd be happy to add it, but spyked, how's your rss bot coming along? | [04:51] |
| spyked: | re a. it's occured to me a few days ago that the bot must maintain +v/-v state so that it doesn't needlessly attempt to talk in-chan before self-voicing. I intend this part to be separate from the rss bot itself and reusable. | [04:53] |
| spyked: | re b. I have a rfc in the works, should be ready for publishing at the beginning of next week. this is also why I haven't disclosed the bot's name and the channel where it operates at the moment, I want to limit access to relevant bot commands to L1 and L2 only. | [04:59] |
| spyked: | now, the reason why this has been taking me so long is that I hoped I would publish the pieces as I went along. but this is harder than it looked, had to write what is now unreadable (other than by myself) prototype, then (point c. on my list) I'll have to rewrite/refactor and then publish. all this despite the fact that this is "known item", not FFA. | [05:05] |
| ave1: | spyked, I've seen this happening many times (the code is done, but ugly, so I cannot publish yet). I geuss there is a general process behind this. At time (a) you need some code, at time (b) you have it but the code is "ugly". At time (c) the code still works and you have little incentive to clean it up. I know only two ways to get less "ugly" code, in the time between (a) and (b) write non "ugly" code. Or at time (c) publish the code and get shamed into s | [08:23] |

| spyked: | ave1, the approach in http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-30#1761284 seems to work here, in many cases I learned how the proper version of some piece of code needs to look after writing it. | [08:30] |
| a111: | Logged on 2017-12-30 22:12 asciilifeform: to round off thread -- asciilifeform very much enjoying rewriting ( and it is , yes , a total rewrite ) ffa | [08:30] |
| spyked: | but I knew how the rss bot design should look (I wrote up a draft before starting the implementation), the problem was rather fitting it up with all the "imported" elements. | [08:31] |
| ave1: | It fascinating this space between | [08:37] |
| ave1: | "in the head" and implemtation | [08:38] |
| spyked: | so eventually I expect some of the rss bot components (e.g. command handling, self-voicing) to evolve into standalone scaffolding for #trilema bots that implements a decent subset of http://trilema.com/2016/trilema-bot-spec/ | [08:38] |
| ave1: | I sometimes have it all tought out and then it completely fails on writing the first couple of lines. | [08:38] |
| ave1: | Also, yes, once you write it you may see how it should have been written. But I wonder if this is the first step in an infinite cycle. | [08:43] |
| ave1: | Not that the cycle is not useful and the result at each round better | [08:44] |
| ave1: | BTW how would you do this "I want to limit access to relevant bot commands to L1 and L2 only" ? Check if the nick has voice or download the WOT or can deedbot be queried? | [08:49] |
| spyked: | as far as I can see, this first writing pass exposes incorrect assumptions about e.g. data structures and how they're used. if this keeps happening, then it might be that the problem is larger than the mind can chew on in one take. | [08:53] |
| spyked: | ave1, yeah, querying deedbot is kinda what I had in mind (not sure if it can be avoided). something like | [08:53] |
| spyked: | !!gettrust deedbot spyked | [08:54] |
| deedbot: | L1: 1, L2: 3 by 3 connections. | [08:54] |
| spyked: | and decide based on that. | [08:54] |
| Mocky: | isn't that what the deedbot + voicing is for? http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818690 | [08:57] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 08:59 spyked: re b. I have a rfc in the works, should be ready for publishing at the beginning of next week. this is also why I haven't disclosed the bot's name and the channel where it operates at the moment, I want to limit access to relevant bot commands to L1 and L2 only. | [08:57] |
| spyked: | the rationale is that there are a few O(n) operations involved (e.g. walking through the list of rss feeds) and I don't want every rando landing on Freenode to be able to abuse this (in particular for advertising sent via pm). let 'em get their own rss bot if they wanna. | [08:58] |
| Mocky: | i mean seems like deedbot + voice is already keeping randos from speaking here | [09:00] |
| spyked: | Mocky: methinks users should be able to talk to the bot via PM, e.g. to subscribe to feeds. the bot will permit "private" subscriptions too, iirc mircea_popescu uses this. | [09:02] |

| asciilifeform: | i booted a heathen linux on the thing from the sd card, via the heathen ('press ctrl-d in 10 sec on boot or i format yer disk') nonsense, it ran. | [11:41] |
| phf: | ah i see, yeah i figured it's a drop in replacement, but the uboot bit complicates the matter. uboot i take it is a boot loader, or the kernel also goes in there? | [11:41] |
| asciilifeform: | loader. however google's uboot is annoying , it ~mandatorily~ looks for googlersa-signed kernel. replacing certs with own is pretty easy, but you still end up having to keep google's toolchain around in order to sign kernels, and ugh | [11:42] |
| asciilifeform: | i'd like a normal, built-from-src rockchip uboot for this thing. and i worked over the pcb with magnifying glass and found a buncha debug contacts, some of which almost certainly gotta be spi rom. but -- currently no time to chase this. | [11:43] |

| BingoBoingo: | Sure. gossipd isn't the only use case. Can't expect the moo cows to report to the reddit bags because they have been issued messages over a gossipd they aren't equipped to use. It's a use case that demands voice and/or video. | [12:19] |

| mircea_popescu: | then you've done nothing. | [16:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | that's the first step. | [16:56] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, I'm not sure what you mean. lemme explain: the rss bot depends on ircbot and other pieces (some imported from heathenlands, some written by scratch from yours truly). from my reading so far, (e.g. diana_coman's use of MPI in Eucrypt) I dun see this as a strictly solved problem. I could a. make a new genesis consisting of ircbot + rss bot + all dependencies, or b. genesis rss bot alone (and mention ircbot + all others as | [17:02] |
| spyked: | dependencies explicitly this is already the case in the bot's .asd file), or c. add rss bot as set of patches onto ircbot. | [17:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | when i say "wank" i'm not just using a word for the purpose of filling a conversational hole. that's what wank fucking is, "any activity proceeding without having considered that question". | [17:02] |
| mircea_popescu: | if you ask "well, am i extending something or writing de novo", you're participating. if you're doing anything else, you're wanking about an activity entirely undistinguishable from chatting up the starbucks waitress or braying under the full moon. | [17:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, so is it then the case you're writing an rss module for icrbot ? | [17:04] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, in the same sense that logbot is a logging module for ircbot, yes. that would mean b (in the a, b, c above) | [17:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | cool. and trying to do this you discovered ircbot can't actually handle voicing itself ? | [17:07] |
| mircea_popescu: | why's that question take 100s of seconds to process anyway. it can't be ~that~ intricate, just copy a register and return. | [17:10] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, it can be used to implement self-voicing, but no, it doesn't implement that functionality itself. | [17:10] |
| mircea_popescu: | well, did you protest that anywhere ? preferably as "hey $x, im trying to use ircbot to make rssbot, but you've not got voice going ?!" | [17:11] |
| spyked: | no, why protest. I thought it was obvious that I was gonna implement it? | [17:12] |
| trinque: | eh? why would it voice itself | [17:12] |
| trinque: | he should extend the thing with a subclass that implements deedbot auth, yeah, but recall deedbot auth service is itself down the tree from ircbot | [17:13] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, it was obvious you were going to implement voicing to make rss bot ? and it was also obvious that you're going to switch state from "making rss bot" to "implementing voice for ircbot so i can proceed with making rssbot", so you didn't announce that either. do you have a value for $x ? | [17:14] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, I admit some of my wording might be confusing, but I announced that in my report today. self-voicing is a prerequisite for rss bot, arising from http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818700 , so I'm implementing. how is this state switching? | [17:16] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 12:38 spyked: so eventually I expect some of the rss bot components (e.g. command handling, self-voicing) to evolve into standalone scaffolding for #trilema bots that implements a decent subset of http://trilema.com/2016/trilema-bot-spec/ | [17:16] |

| spyked: | but yes, I understand mircea_popescu now, thing is vaporware/non-existent until properly published and signed. | [17:35] |
| mircea_popescu: | it means this : that instead of explicitly communicating state, a. "i r making rss bot" b. "hey trinque wtf, ircbot doesn't do voicing ?" c. "o well, stopped making rss bot, making voice module for ircbot to be able to make rss bot later" and THEN 1. pushing a voice patch to ircbot BEFORE d. "back to making rss bot" | [17:35] |

| trinque: | spyked: hasn't to do with the publishing and signing yet. open source is shit precisely because every idiot comes in and does his own thing without talking to the last guy | [17:36] |

| mircea_popescu: | poor communication with the exterior and poor structuring of the internal process. no, it's not AT ALL the same fucking thing, oh, x is vaguely related to y so let's call it all z." the point isn't to make stu over here. | [17:37] |
| mircea_popescu: | all this communication you opt to not do when it costs you a dime a page i then have to do later, at the cost of a dollar a word. it's fucking bs, save me money. | [17:38] |
| * spyked | takes this lesson. will make his pre/post-work communication happen (as explicitly as possible) in the future. | [17:40] |
| trinque: | ok, so lets have the thread! | [17:41] |
| trinque: | ircbot does nothing but connect to IRC, does nickserv auth, and provides a minimal api to send/receive messages | [17:42] |
| trinque: | this imho is totally proper, atop that I've written a class logbot that extends ircbot, makes it write messages to a "log" table in postgresql, read outgoing messages from an "outbox" table | [17:44] |
| spyked: | my thought re trilema spec is having something along the lines of a "trilbot" that performs some of the basic scaffolding (self-voicing and command prefix parsing). | [17:44] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque, is it actually the case ircbot can't do the voicing ? | [17:44] |
| spyked: | could be standalone lisp package, used by e.g. rss bot | [17:44] |
| spyked: | and built on top ircbot | [17:45] |
| spyked: | *on top of it | [17:45] |
| trinque: | mircea_popescu: deedbot is *providing* auth here | [17:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, so then you were actually going to " writing de novo" ? | [17:45] |
| trinque: | I have not at all implemented *using* auth | [17:45] |
| trinque: | the proper place to do that is not at all ircbot | [17:45] |
| trinque: | it's a descendent class thereof | [17:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque, didja put this anywhere ? | [17:46] |
| trinque: | put what? | [17:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | "here's how i expect this to be used : a) ircbot is a basic class b) logbot is an extension of it c) if you're ever making a rss bot, scavenge the relevant parts off logbot, and put a different vtree on top of ircbot" | [17:46] |
| trinque: | it's not a vtree on top of ircbot | [17:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | why not ? | [17:47] |
| trinque: | and yeah, the rationale for what each class is used for is in the blog post | [17:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | is the blogpost referenced from the vpatches ? | [17:47] |
| trinque: | the blogpost is the README from each | [17:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | so then properly, the rationale is in the vpatches, something like that. | [17:48] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, didja read it ? did it make sense ? | [17:48] |
| spyked: | the reason I was first set off by mircea_popescu's question was that it led me to "what implication do lisp modules (packages?) have for v? is each module/package supposed to have its own v tree?" | [17:48] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, yes | [17:49] |
| trinque: | it'd have to I can write a class that extends n other classes. | [17:49] |
| trinque: | we can't put each descendent class in every parent's v-tree, or there's one v-tree for the whole world | [17:49] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, did you say this anywhere ? | [17:49] |

| a111: | Logged on 2018-04-03 19:46 spyked: mircea_popescu, it's good timing, since I've been doing some reading ircbot code and comparing with my own implementation. I've actually been contemplating http://btcbase.org/log/2018-02-26#1786288 and rolling my own was not a wholly useless endeavour, i.e. http://trilema.com/2016/how-to-participate-in-the-affairs-of-the-most-serene-republic/#selection-322.0-322.5 so I'll document the whole thing on the blog. | [17:52] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-02 11:03 spyked: speaking of which to all ircbot users: I have a patch proposal for ircbot (and possibly logbot). the problem: nickserv authentication makes a distinction between "nickname" and "user". this allows e.g. to group multiple irc bots (with different nicks) under a single username and cloak. so my proposal is to add a new *optional* "user" slot to ircbot and use it for auth instead of "nick" when available | [17:52] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, yes, but you have to pick something at some point. you can't be doing everything at the same time. | [17:53] |
| mircea_popescu: | is it that you're writing a new item ? is it that you're extending an extant one ? this is decided FIRST. not "as we go along, and then changed". | [17:53] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, I ended up working on a couple of new ones. a. trilema spec subset and b. rss bot. | [17:55] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, you'll discover you'll do much better working serially. | [17:55] |
| mircea_popescu: | but be that as it may : there's always going to be good and bad arguments for whatever choice but that has no bearing on the fact that you must still choose, and at the time of choice not at whatever time it may occur to you to. | [17:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | so, is the rss bot ~something you're extending irc bot into~ or ~something you're writing de novo~. one and only one may be the case. | [17:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | and the fact that i have to ask at all, let alone i have to re-ask after an hour's conversation is a very strong marker for a poorly organized mind. you're supposed to know what you're doing, what! | [17:57] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, it is going to be separate item, but based on ircbot. can't be an extension of ircbot, for the same reason logbot can't be (some people might not wanna put a rsstron into their ircbot) | [17:58] |
| mircea_popescu: | i don't get it. you can't press to arbitrary heads now ? | [17:58] |
| douchebag: | asciilifeform: elaborate? | [17:59] |
| lobbesbot: | douchebag: Sent 4 hours and 32 minutes ago: <asciilifeform> if you think the faux-camwhores approach will work to make a 'backup' identity for self, this time with new flavouring -- 1) it won't 2) drop it 3) this is good road to -10 | [17:59] |
| trinque: | he thinks you were that derp from earlier | [17:59] |
| douchebag: | Oh hell nah | [18:00] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, the rss bot would branch the ircbot tree then. if trinque or mircea_popescu see any reason for adding rss bot on top of ircbot, I see no reason not to, but it would be disjoint item (i.e. only file changed would be manifest) | [18:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | my mind is blown. | [18:01] |
| spyked: | more to the point: there is a relation between ircbot and the rss bot, but I'm not sure it would make sense for v to enforce that. | [18:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | ... | [18:03] |
| mircea_popescu: | would it make sense for v to exist at all ? | [18:04] |
| trinque: | does the v-tree suck in a particular version of the linux kernel too? | [18:05] |
| trinque: | I think he's asking where the line is drawn | [18:05] |
| trinque: | ircbot will be a dependency of his thing, so he wants to know how to denote that | [18:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | i don't even know what fucking line. what line ? it's either a genesis or a patchset. that's thje fucking line. what other line ?! | [18:06] |
| trinque: | how would you like me to restate it | [18:06] |
| mircea_popescu: | i dunno. i think it can sit as it is. | [18:08] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, lemme try to restate the thing as I see it. the rss bot doesn't make changes to ircbot, it's a new thing that uses ircbot as a dependency. so from this follows (in my mind, so pls to say if broken!) that the new thing will be a genesis. | [18:11] |
| mircea_popescu: | this is factually incorrect. from "item has 1 dependency : otheritem" it follows strictly that item will be a succession of patches on otheritem tree. | [18:13] |
| mircea_popescu: | if it were the case that item has >1 dependency, oi1..n, then it would have been resolved by a) picking one and b) introducing as patches into that tree all otheritems 1..n-1. | [18:14] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, then I dun understand why http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=bot the disjoint graph on the right | [18:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | afaik ben_vulpes made one and trinque the other or somesuch. in general, the cause for this is author1 thinks author2 is an idiot. | [18:14] |
| trinque: | this is absolutely not what was being denoted by that | [18:14] |
| mircea_popescu: | well, it's what i understand. what was being denoted ? | [18:15] |
| trinque: | I don't see that eucrypt code includes the ada compiler? why not? | [18:15] |
| trinque: | or linux kernel, or etc. | [18:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | because nobody willing to sign it has yet been found. | [18:15] |
| mircea_popescu: | but should eg, bitcoin-fs be written, then yes trb will exist in the same tree as bitcoin-fs. and should we go as low as tmsr-os, then yes, tmsr-os as genesis will have bitcoin-fs patchzone and then trb patchzone after that. and people wanting to use bitcoinfs for something else can just press up to there and no further. and projects wanting to import bitcoinfs but not trb will just build off that height of tree, and continue | [18:17] |
| mircea_popescu: | thusly. | [18:17] |
| mircea_popescu: | and yes, "the complete tree of all patches ever downstream from tmsr-os genesis" will include ~everything~ we ever made, and there's nothing wrong with that and people not caring to keep the complete patchset will keep whatever subs they want, exactly like http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-09#1794613 | [18:19] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-04-09 14:31 mircea_popescu: a right. hanbot do me a favour : download ~only~ those patches which are in the leftmost trunk seen on phf's viewer (so exclude vtools_vdiff_sha, and its dependents) and try to flow again ? | [18:19] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, but say I have a similar itcbot vtree, with logbot on top. then top of it I include trilemabot (handling self-voicing et al.), then on top of that rss bot. then if I want to use rss bot but not logbot (which don't depend on each other), how would I go about that? | [18:19] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, why is trilemabot on top of logbot instead of on the side of logbot ? | [18:20] |
| trinque: | I think this is absolutely correct, and I'm in error not putting logbot in ircbot's tree. | [18:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | (the realisation that v-tree management is a lot like playing tetris should probably hit just about now) | [18:20] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque, not the end of the world, the "author1 thionks author2 is an idiot" can be very mild indeed, "i didn't like the patchlength, collapsed some and regenesised" | [18:21] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, then if they're separate branches and if I want to make purely hypothetical spykedbot that does both? would end up with patch with two antecedents, should v press that? should I regrind? | [18:22] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, v presses that as it is now, why not. plenty of examples extant. | [18:23] |
| trinque: | I suppose I should've said instead "had there been a gnat v-tree, eucrypt would never find itself in a position where gnat had moved, and nobody can find the gnat to build eucrypt" | [18:25] |
| mircea_popescu: | indeed that'd be so, and how joyous a circumstance. | [18:26] |
| mircea_popescu: | that's even why eucrypt doesn't want to be outside of the tree of its dependencies, after all. | [18:26] |

| mircea_popescu: | whenever the weight of signatures warrants the effort. | [18:27] |
| * spyked | was thinking, will "the (one and only) v tree" end up eating everything? | [18:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | depends on dependencies. eg you can have independent arm and x86 osen. | [18:27] |
| mircea_popescu: | or can have special purpose osen in other ways, and end up with lone trees. | [18:28] |
| mircea_popescu: | for instance : bitcoinfs may be found useful by someone storing flac muzak. they'd then copy it from its original tmsr-os / trb tree, and put it in their gp-os / torrent tree. | [18:29] |
| trinque: | will be interesting what comes of tracking those lineages | [18:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | this'd take some doing, conceivably, but the someone in question may find the answer to "import or rewrite" favourable on the import side. | [18:30] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque, i dunno that they're to be tracked, it'd be 100% elbow grease of the porter and his beard. | [18:30] |
| trinque: | sure, but whether the same patch hunk ended up in two places is computable, interesting in a patch-viewer sense, not in a vtron-operation sense | [18:31] |
| mircea_popescu: | i suspect it may not be fully computable. but, sure, we see how it goes. | [18:31] |

| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 13:29 phf: back in the canonical log days, i'd patch the name in the logs, but since we're past that i think it can be left as is, unless there are objections as far as log authenticity. | [18:37] |
| trinque: | spyked: so sounds like you're going to patch your items (in as many small, easy to read patches as possible) atop ircbot? | [18:38] |
| trinque: | and I'm going to graft logbot's v-tree onto ircbot | [18:38] |
| spyked: | trinque, alright. | [18:39] |
| mircea_popescu: | do me a favour and don't wait on the voice part so as to dump it together with the rss part, either. | [18:39] |
| mircea_popescu: | small, easy to read, one at a time. | [18:39] |
| mircea_popescu: | and conceivably both logbot and rssbot want voice module, because logbot will want to read references to its logsite. | [18:40] |
| pipp8: | thanks, Hi all, I'm a little noob about bitcoin, so I'm sorry, But from your website thebitcoin.fundation I can read you still use bitcoin 0.54(or 0.53 official with bug solved) why you have choose this version? what succesive implementations wasn't in line with your thinking?? you don't want? | [18:40] |
| mircea_popescu: | pipp8, read the logs. | [18:41] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, okay. the rss bot needs self-voicing, command prefixes et al., so it's eventually going to come further down in the tree, on top of them. | [18:41] |
| pipp8: | mircea_popescu, ok | [18:42] |
| mircea_popescu: | you can of course interleave, it's not the end of the world. | [18:42] |
| mircea_popescu: | ie, as a general rule, always start with the more general parts. | [18:42] |
| ben_vulpes: | pipp8: http://cascadianhacker.com/20_a-summary-of-changes-to-bitcoin-since-0321 | [18:44] |
| spyked: | trinque, re. voice and other trilema-bot functionality, I'd like to take a look at the code you have if you're willing to share. | [18:44] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818735 << is is settled that rsa checks are waste of time / undesirable ? having a sane process doing kernel check may not be terrible, neh ? | [18:44] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 15:44 phf: and i guess you're trying to replace google's uboot with a built-from-src one, that doesn't also have rsa checks etc. | [18:44] |
| trinque: | to reiterate, I do not have code to self-voice. deedbot is providing voice to everyone else. | [18:45] |
| ben_vulpes: | pipp8: because nothing after 0.5.3 was strictly necessary. | [18:45] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, do you have a voicer thing ? | [18:45] |
| trinque: | the code I have is to provide the voicing service, which isn't useful for your purposes, but will certainly be released at some point | [18:45] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, no, not yet. it's next on the todo list. | [18:46] |
| mircea_popescu: | i'll spare you the "wtf have you been doing thus far". this time. | [18:46] |
| spyked: | trinque, okay, then I'ma do that first. and then get back to you for command prefixes. | [18:46] |
| trinque: | I suspect logbot is terribly named. it's more aptly an IRC-pg bridge. | [18:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | trinque, regrind is the time to rename, huh. | [18:47] |
| trinque: | for sure. | [18:47] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818746 << now this is an example of sane approach. *thumbsup* | [18:48] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 15:47 phf: so an intermediate step that someone else could perform is to take your rockchip gentoo, generate new rsa pair, sign the kernel with pub, patch google's uboot with priv and get a clean booting rockchip gentoo setup, without accidentally bricking the device? (while still retaining known amount of google in the system) | [18:48] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818753 << this is actually a fine spec unterschrif't | [18:50] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 15:51 trinque: idea being "rockchip blobless scope:15" would bring you to anywhere those terms are within 15 lines of each other | [18:50] |
| mircea_popescu: | and if it ~is~ resource intensive, implement it anyway, publish a way for user to evaluate cost, and charge them like lobbes ' auctionbot. monthly or w/e. | [18:51] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/R1NKS/?raw=true for example. lemme know if it breaks | [18:51] |
| mircea_popescu: | i would not object to !!paying whatever pittance my needs may drive me to, and if it's not a pittance i'll either change the needs or be thankful for the useful service. | [18:51] |
| mircea_popescu: | spyked, why is it !F ? | [18:53] |
| spyked: | I'm gonna change that with the one from the bot list when I bring it in the chan | [18:54] |
| spyked: | but it seemed more intuitive for some reason. could be e.g. !R for rss. | [18:55] |
| mircea_popescu: | the value of "i forgot what this is" gotta balance with the value of "this is impossible to fucking type". | [18:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | generally the bias is towards heavy users, not noobs. | [18:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | anyway, it produced no message of any kind. | [18:56] |
| mircea_popescu: | also i'm not exactly instrumented here to handle testing of pming bots, rss or otherwise. so mebbe someone else may be more useful ? | [18:57] |
| spyked: | yeah, it produced an error! gotta debug it. there's no sane rss parser out there. | [18:58] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818760 << bear in mind that my girls get in trouble for having over a dozen tabs open. maybe the solution is on the other end! | [18:59] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 15:58 phf: asciilifeform: i'm establishing scope, rather then actually doing anything. firefox on my x60 has an uper limit on tabs i have open, because it runs out of memory, so i started thinking that this ain't no way to live :> | [18:59] |
| mircea_popescu: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1818764 << may end up having to import Framedragger_ s' multi-line thing as a means to return. | [19:00] |
| a111: | Logged on 2018-05-25 15:59 phf: trinque: i like that idea, i'll see if it's easy to implement though. it doesn't map quite cleanly to current search architecture though, which is single pass and stateless | [19:00] |
| spyked: | mircea_popescu, yeah, the example was only intended to give preview, re "what've you been doing all this time". btw, can unsubscribe using !F unsubscribe <link>. otherwise it'll send you messages after I figure out what's borken. | [19:00] |
| mircea_popescu: | part of the problem is i don't even know if i can receive and can't be arsed to debug something i don't really use anyway. but yes, will clear it nao. | [19:01] |

| asciilifeform: | http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-25#1819048 << in abstract it's great but in the concrete case it requires GB of google liquishit tooling to be kept around so as to sign kernels ( unless somebody wants to rewrite and follow the gnarly format.. ) | [19:37] |

| mircea_popescu: | just preserve the principle, "rsa signed kernels" | [20:03] |
