Framedragger: why is Vexual banned - http://trilema.com/forum-logs-for-15-aug-2016#2148874 - why no bard. you know tor irc channels used to have this skruffy character who connected from some small shanty town in deep russia and spoke broken english. thing is, he found and reported on a ton of deeper bugs, i mean like delicate race conditions that don't normally appear and shit. he claimed to have used win98 and complained all the time that tor broke on win98 [05:51]

Framedragger: !#s scoopbot [07:47]
a111: 435 results for "scoopbot", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=scoopbot [07:47]
shinohai: i tried making archive,is bot but it barfs sometimes if link has already been submitted [07:48]
Framedragger: PeterL wrote a url scooper, maybe he wants to do the url post to archive.is part as it'd be very trivial anyway? [07:48]
mircea_popescu: Framedragger yes. [07:48]
Framedragger: shinohai: exception handling much?! :D [07:49]
mircea_popescu: multiple/all bots doing this would not cause any problems either. [07:49]
Framedragger: aha. in which case i'll add a thing to scriba and PeterL can do it too and then there'll be some redundancy there, too. sounds good to me [07:50]
mircea_popescu: perfect. feel free to use whatever archive services you prefer, also. i tend to like archive.is, but it's by no means the only one. [07:50]
mircea_popescu: but for my own cluing-in : is it possible to write code so that you obtain the same microtime value from two separate calls for it ? [07:51]
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: re archiving, right! will update laters. [07:52]
* mircea_popescu 's naive notion of microtime would be "returns cycle count", and since all instructions take at least 1 cycle... [07:52]
Framedragger: i don't know. (asciilifeform?) but look, in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2607263/how-precise-is-the-internal-clock-of-a-modern-pc there are hints of madness and inconsistency. "returns clock count" doesn't seem to be it. [07:53]
Framedragger: most systems do not provide that level of info to userland at all afaik [07:53]
Framedragger: which yes is sad and fuck x86 [07:53]
mircea_popescu: date +%N 353690185 < on a 3ghz machine eg. [07:53]
mircea_popescu: nanoseconds is 10 -9, which... [07:54]
Framedragger: remains to be seen if those are actually accurate. i recall wanting to obtain ns-level timing in a small no-bullshit C program, wasn't able to, reliably. could've been my failure, tho. really wouldn't trust those values [07:55]
Framedragger: some dude got the same values from multiple calls to microtime but that was in php and could have been php caching things, because, php [07:55]
Framedragger: (linux appears to require `rdtsc` to be able to return something akin to tick count. asciilifeform maybe knows if this is a doomed affair.) [07:57]
Framedragger: "rdtsc is not guaranteed to be available on every CPU, or to run at a constant rate, *or be consistent between different cores.*" (emphasis mine). `get_cycles()` is recommended, but from cursory look it seems that on some architectures it uses rdtsc internally? madness. [08:01]
mircea_popescu: in other news, apparently it is impossible to establish the calorie value of garbanzo beans. "somewhere between 80 and 150" should be good enough for anyone!!1 [08:30]
mircea_popescu: Framedragger thinkl about it though : if they coincide, and they also coincide in the same second, all that happens is that your lighthouse... skips a beat. [08:31]
mircea_popescu: whoop de doo. [08:31]
mircea_popescu: incidentally, and re http://trilema.com/2016/gossipd-design-document/#comment-119099 : if anyone likes to fuck around with markov chains etc, a prototype implementation of that would be perfect at this juncture. [08:34]
mircea_popescu: just take however many lines of x person here, create however many bogus lines, put on your blog or w/e. [08:34]
Framedragger: mircea_popescu: understand and agree. it's worth to have it be pointed out in the comments if only so that someone doesn't start assuming that the spec implicitly provides guarantees of uniqueness etc. and good to have a picture of the madness and lack of guarantee anyway. but i guess you're right [08:35]
mircea_popescu: yeah, by now it's becoming evident that gossipd is to be delivered with a config file and a VERY LONG helpfile. [08:35]
Framedragger: man i'll write an mp markov bot one of those days for sure. will probably sneak it into irc bot till it gets banned, too see how long before people realise it's a bot [08:35]
Framedragger: for reals [08:36]
Framedragger: these* [08:36]
mircea_popescu: lol. have fun. [08:36]
Framedragger: obligatory link for the logs, http://kingjamesprogramming.tumblr.com/ [08:36]
mircea_popescu: adding a !#wws mircea_popescu for "what would mircea_popescu say" can't hurt anything [08:36]
mircea_popescu: let's keep terrorism fun after all! [08:37]
Framedragger: "34:7 What man is there that knoweth not how to go about doing arithmetic on polynomials." [08:39]

PeterL: so bot listens to chan and whenever it sees a link it submits to archive.is? [08:40]
mircea_popescu: yep [08:41]
PeterL: and would it say anything in chan, or just do it silently? [08:41]
mircea_popescu: wouldn't say anything. [08:43]
PeterL: sounds easy enough [08:43]
Framedragger: form on archive.is is simple PeterL, just need to get a "sekrit id" to then include it in the POST. also don't assume that all post requests succeed / archive.is gives the same answer, as shinohai noted [08:44]
mircea_popescu: it has the advantage that if i later search for the link it pops it [08:45]
mircea_popescu: so i don't actually need to know what it was archived as. [08:45]
mircea_popescu: Framedragger exciting times huh. [08:46]
Framedragger: verily! [08:47]
Framedragger: http://log.mkj.lt/trilema/20160914/#141 << ah, should the bot cite the archived link if an archived url is mentioned in the channel? [08:48]
scriba: Logged on 2016-09-14: [12:45:20] <mircea_popescu> it has the advantage that if i later search for the link it pops it [08:48]
mircea_popescu: nope. [08:49]
Framedragger: i assume by "it pops it" you meant archive.is, tho [08:49]
Framedragger: ah ok. [08:49]
mircea_popescu: yes yes, i mean if later i'm trying to read the logs, say in 2020, and we're discussing webpage of retard x [08:49]
mircea_popescu: i can just go to archive.is, put the url in and see the page. [08:50]
mircea_popescu: #trilema, pissing on "right to be forgotten". since time immemorial. [08:50]

mircea_popescu: !$ help [09:04]
mircea_popescu: nice! [09:04]

mircea_popescu: yeah but im curious re his particular implementation [11:30]
mircea_popescu: ah kk. [11:30]
mircea_popescu: considering the average level of anglopshere literacy, i do not think one could distinguish markov from person text - provided of course you generate many lines and only let pass those who satisfy stringent grammar checks. [11:31]
mircea_popescu: ie no misplaced dot etc. [11:31]
mircea_popescu: all-smalls convention also helps immensely. [11:31]
asciilifeform: a slightly clever mpbot would be guided by what is actually said to it (grep the from:mircea_popescu lines for words or even fragments of the query and return shannonization of immediately subsequent from: s) [11:31]
mircea_popescu: yup [11:31]

lobbes: Euporium (jurov and Azelphur) is another bot that lives only in #Eulora. Also to take in consideration [14:56]
PeterL: scoopbot is using !1 but does not have any useful functions yet (just passively archiving so far) [14:57]

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yeah but i thought the chick is lazy, won't cook or clean. [14:58]
mircea_popescu: so they put her in vase (really, it's made out of porcelain on lead glue, much like stained glass) so she can be flower. [14:58]

phf: pete_dushenski: there's a lot of vague, mystical takes on dogen, but i think that most of the time he makes very straightforward points, like in the wild fox koan, he just says that everything is bound by cause and effect, and if you think you can have a magic talisman against it, you're going to suffer [15:09]

phf: i think it's impressive how he manages to think his way out of nothingness. his baseline is basically 15 year old monks in training, who need to be taught not to shit on their hands, etc. knowledge transfer consists of dialogues about buddha teachings. it's very much the case of grinding lens by hand to study astrophysics [15:22]
mircea_popescu: i can see this angle. [15:22]
phf: there are some interviews with feynman where he's trying to explain how doing science is a constant game of catching yourself lying to yourself long before it becomes a question of "scientific community" etc.. dogen is coming from the opposite direction of learning to see things clearly as a goal, and a lot of his essays are descriptions of what he saw [15:28]
mircea_popescu: did you read originals for any of this ? [15:29]
phf: further obscurantism comes from people who don't see clearly, but in a markov chain thinking relay what they heard before "of course that's how it is, i heard it from joe, and it was tired then, what dogen is actually saying is this flowery shit i pulled out of my ass" [15:29]
asciilifeform: phf: one of the reasons why this is so difficult to teach is that there are no heroes in it. even someone like deryagin, who was respected for renouncing his polywater thing and sinking own career, was really a case of 'ok i set this fire, and put it out'. but there are no heroes in 'ok i have no great invention, won't even bother saying to anyone, and will happily die in obscurity fixing shoes' [15:30]
mircea_popescu: cincinnatus. [15:30]
asciilifeform: (this in re feynman's comment) [15:30]

phf: "theosopy" [15:33]
phf: madam blavatski and her followers did a lot of damage for years to come. it was literally in her writing that original meaning doesn't matter, as long as the translation sounds cool (there's a rationalization for why that somehow supposed to make sense) [15:35]
phf: and majority of azn/indian translations came from theosophists [15:35]
mircea_popescu: and in other convenient coincidences, as per 문전본풀이 the goddess of kitchen and the goddess of outhouse had an argument, therefore koreans may not take things from kitchen to toilet or vice-versa. [15:35]

pete_dushenski: mod6: cool. unrelatedly, why do you c/p whole text line instead of using a log link ? fwiw it's tough to read. [16:54]
phf: fwiw that approach is gossip-proof, there was a thread in logs, that there's not really such a thing as "log" in gossip model, and the conclusion was that logging will need to be reexamined. inline quoting though remains [16:55]
pete_dushenski: that i can totally see. but until such time... i mean, it's not as if inline quoting is a skill that needs to be kept sharp. [16:57]

mod6: I find the quoting via web-logs cumbersome, personally. The only saving grace is when a bot parses the line, the spits out that line, and maybe the next subsequent line so I get some context instead of having to copy the log line referenced and drop it into a browser manually. [17:01]
mod6: Well. Unless the line(s) referenced are say, more than a few days old, then for obvious reasons, it's handy. [17:02]

mircea_popescu: phf cuz logging as we use it atm is a centralized thing [17:23]
phf: asciilifeform: we started with a single canonical log though, where kako's testimony was implicitly the word of tmsr. there was some anathem/"A Canticle for Leibowitz" jokes about it, the log files were deeded, etc. while working on btcbase i realized that there can be no canonical log without arbitration, i.e. because of netsplits, lost messages, out of order, clock skews you need a single authority to decide what ultimately goes into [17:23]
phf: log. so at some point we were in "log according to btcbase" situation. with the recent move to multiple bots and more importantly multiple logs, we now have "log according to ..." model, which we can still though attempt to reconcile. once we move to gossip there can't even be a talk of single log. it's always "log according to whoever heard and relayed it" by design.

mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 and then everyone will build on the later version, leaving alf version stranded. << indeed. fair enough [22:31]
phf: i think mod6's v is trying to solve bootstrapping problem, by pretending like it's not one. you have to have v tools, and you also have to have your ~/wot. those are created organically, at which point picking up a tar.gz of vpatches or picking them manually is a nobrainer. but if you're a trb newb, you want all three at the same time, which seems like a subversion of v design. why not just have a v starter kit? you unpack it, you have [22:31]

mod6: *np [22:31]
mircea_popescu: very useful for entryway as it is. the monk is welcome to purify his learning after. [22:31]
mod6: so, it turns out, in practice, that it very much is not so. [22:32]
asciilifeform: well trinque is no n00b but his (very useful!) pieces pre-suppose the init thing [22:32]
mod6: it is actually difficult for individuals who are new to this, to figure out the entire thing. and concepts. [22:32]
asciilifeform: hence why i even tried it [22:32]
asciilifeform: mod6: laugh, but yes, the thing melted in my hands [22:33]
asciilifeform: (i had nfi re the 'must make dir' thing) [22:33]

mod6: asciilifeform: what do you mean, melted in my hands? [22:34]
mircea_popescu: the fact that you tried to build a badly packaged project (spurious split in two) has ~nothing to do with mod6 's bootstrapping tie-in. [22:34]
mircea_popescu: again : do not fix the level. fix the god damned wall. [22:34]
mod6: did you bother to read the extensive documentation that i wrote? [22:34]
asciilifeform: mod6: i did, in the end. [22:34]
mod6: and then, you understood how to do such a thing, even if, ill advised? [22:35]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: how's the split spurious? there are multiple bots, based on trinque's core set of routines [22:35]
mircea_popescu: "they were trinque's logbot and the base lib it was built on" << this is what you said. it is different from what you are saying now. [22:36]
asciilifeform: eh mircea_popescu go and read it. it's two dozem or what lines. [22:36]
asciilifeform: rather than my attempt to summarize. [22:36]
mircea_popescu: just make every project be one single project. [22:36]
phf: the patches in question, http://btcbase.org/patches?patchset=bot . i actually have no idea how they overlap if at all. [22:36]
mircea_popescu: because that's the fucking point : for a project to be one project. not two. [22:37]
mircea_popescu: that's the thing that has to fucking die, "libraries" in the linux sense of the term. [22:37]
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing as a "library" and there is no such thing as "code reuse". put everything in a directory and build it. [22:37]
mircea_popescu: once. altogether. [22:38]
phf: asciilifeform: i remember when i was talking about asdf, you were saying that the problem has been solved by v. in this case the split exists explicitly because logbot/ircbot are mutually dependant by asdf, but no in any v way [22:38]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: and when he finds bug, 10,000,001 cut'n'pasted instances of his routine must be found and patched ? [22:38]
mircea_popescu: they are not mutually dependent on one thing. logbot depends on asdf-logbot ircbot depends on asdf-ircbot. these MAY be identical, but the fact that they are identical is a people-knowledge, not a machine knowledge. [22:39]
mircea_popescu: create two copies of this "asdf" platonic solid, place them appropriately, they will be distinct items. and proceed. [22:39]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform when he finds a bug he goes and hangs himself. [22:39]
mircea_popescu: stop coding for bugs, and stop wearing condoms to your babysitting jig. [22:40]
mircea_popescu: gig* [22:40]

mircea_popescu: phf it'd better be you you're younger. [22:42]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: as it is i sit on a raft, all day, every day, in ocean of 'things we really shouldn't have to have had' [22:43]
asciilifeform: and row the raft. [22:43]
mircea_popescu: libraries the modern coder's excuse for not reading code. "it's a LIBRARY!!11!!! dude. you don't read that!" [22:44]
asciilifeform: well no, i read it. but once, and not every time some joker switches the tabs to spaces and pastes etc. [22:45]
mircea_popescu: this is not a problem in the constraints presented. "create two copies of this "asdf" platonic solid, place them appropriately, they will be distinct items. and proceed." [22:46]
mircea_popescu: you keep the thing you read, and paste it where you need it. [22:46]
mircea_popescu: if someone comes up with a way to sort in linear time, you a) READ his way b) UNDERSTAND his way and c) IMPLEMENT it. yourself. that's the golden measure. and ideally you come up with what he came up verbatim. or else you have a discussion on the table! [22:47]
asciilifeform: so long as it lives in separate file that is recognizably same every time it is used, i can't think of any reason to disagree [22:47]
mircea_popescu: which is what i mean : take that library apart, merge it into the bot, be happy, it'll be one project as god intended. [22:47]
asciilifeform: ah then yes. [22:48]
asciilifeform: anyway this is a request for trinque . [22:48]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: also looks like it uses some irc lib [22:49]
asciilifeform: should also live inside ? [22:49]
mircea_popescu: errything. [22:50]
asciilifeform: and sbcl ? [22:50]
mircea_popescu: eeeeerything [22:50]
asciilifeform: and it wants a gcc when you first build it [22:50]
asciilifeform: reader of logbot should begin by reading gcc? [22:50]
mircea_popescu: you know i'm right impracticality aside. [22:50]
mircea_popescu: do as much as practical and more tomorrow. [22:51]
asciilifeform: or perhaps x86 ref manual... [22:51]
mircea_popescu: anyway, blessfully there exists this magic librarizing where "kernel" is split from "userland". which can be the border for a while. [22:52]
asciilifeform: in practice the semantic boundry is fictional. [22:52]
mircea_popescu: aha. [22:52]
asciilifeform: as most readers know. [22:52]
phf: (asciilifeform: have you tried reading bordeaux-threads that cl-irc depends on? that thing is nasty. kind of defeats the whole "here's a clean irc bot vpatch" if you're pulling dodgy, constantly changing dependencies) [22:53]
asciilifeform: i can piss bits b/w processes, and , in most actual instances, 'privesc' entirely and do whatever. [22:53]
asciilifeform: phf: how does it 'constantly change' ? [22:53]
asciilifeform: i dun think i changed mine since... 2009? [22:54]
mod6: asciilifeform: examine this for a minute: http://dpaste.com/1PZHHA8.txt [22:54]
asciilifeform: mod6: aha? [22:55]
mod6: aha [22:55]
asciilifeform: mod6: i'm thick. point finger to the important bit plox [22:56]
phf: bordeaux-threads? it's being updated, last commit is june 25, 2016. main problem though is that you never know when it's going to get the cffi treatment, or slime treatment, etc. [22:56]
asciilifeform: phf: tell me what means 'being updated' [22:56]
mircea_popescu: if you keep it at home that when is never [22:56]
asciilifeform: i dun load the updates [22:56]
asciilifeform: so it can be updated on venus for all i care [22:57]
asciilifeform: and mircea_popescu nailed it [22:57]
mod6: is this not what you're trying to do? one parent dir, two child 'patches' dirs ('trb' and 'ircbot'), each with respective seal dirs ('.trb-seals' and '.ircbot-seals') both being able to be used ~fine~ with v.pl (v99995) [22:57]
mircea_popescu: and since you wash what you bring home, esp prior to use, well... [22:57]
asciilifeform: mod6: i tried to init twice [22:58]
asciilifeform: mod6: second aborted [22:58]
asciilifeform: and produced no patches [22:58]
asciilifeform: mod6: i simply followed trinque's recipes verbatim, one after the other. [22:59]
mod6: so this is what you ran into? [22:59]
mod6: http://dpaste.com/0S1WFK9.txt [22:59]
asciilifeform: aha [22:59]
asciilifeform: it. [22:59]
mod6: it does that on purpose. [22:59]
asciilifeform: but with ~different~ project the second time [23:00]
mod6: if you want to ~re-sync~, you need to use: 'sa', 'se', 'ss', or 'sv' [23:00]
mod6: see './v.pl h' [23:00]
mod6: ok sec [23:00]
mod6: so here's my using 'init' to sync trb, and trinque's ircbot, then using both. trb with the default 'patches' and '.seals' and ircbot with the non-default: http://dpaste.com/2EFW6G4.txt [23:03]
asciilifeform: ah looks like you gave it explicit destinations [23:03]
asciilifeform: this was not in trinque's cookbook. [23:04]
mod6: ah. [23:04]
mircea_popescu: <mod6> did you bother to read the extensive documentation that i wrote? < [23:04]
mod6: i've never even seen his cookbook, but perhaps his doesn't have more than one project in a dir. but indeed, ya, you can do that. even if 'tis ill advised. [23:05]
asciilifeform: anyway this is not a bug report for mod6 [23:05]
phf: asciilifeform: being updated in a sense that we can't have a meaningful v conversation, since your b-t is from 2009, mine is from 2011 and trinque's is from 2016 most likely. all logbot has is a pointer to "cl-log". for all i know tomorrow's version of cl-log is not even going to have b-t in ir [23:06]
phf: *it [23:06]
asciilifeform: phf: there is 1 and only 1! pill that cures . [23:06]
asciilifeform: as mircea_popescu noted. [23:06]
phf: word [23:08]
mod6: <+asciilifeform> anyway this is not a bug report for mod6 << no worries either way. more than anything, I want to help you use it successfully. :] [23:08]
asciilifeform: ty mod6 [23:08]
mod6: btw: is this trinque's cookbook then? http://trinque.org/2016/08/10/ircbot-genesis/ [23:12]
asciilifeform: aha [23:13]
asciilifeform: it + the other page [23:13]
mod6: ok, yah. his thing basically figures that you make a new dir and so-forth [23:13]
mod6: no worries, glad it's resolved. [23:14]
shinohai: !!up judywatson [23:29]
deedbot: judywatson voiced for 30 minutes. [23:29]
phf: you better wise up, janet weiss [23:42]
shinohai: ya salio [23:43]
phf: che cosa [23:45]
