asciilifeform: ( in curl ?! wai?! ) [01:24]
asciilifeform: verdict so far is, makefiles dun survive being pasted. [01:25]
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo usg.pinoy moved on to whining about imminent usg defeat ? [01:31]
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Hard to tell if usg.pinoy or PRC.Chinoy [01:32]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform best i can tell, wotpaste simply drops nonascii chars. was something in the makefile not ascii ? [01:34]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: absolutely not [01:38]
asciilifeform: no winblowz line endings either ( from where..? ) [01:38]
* asciilifeform bbl [01:40]
trinque: spent more time freaking out than producing a diff would've taken. [01:40]
trinque: seems it wasn't the tabs those came back [01:41]
mircea_popescu: trinque i am actually running a terst and it's pretty mindboggling. [01:45]
mircea_popescu: here : http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/XwluN/?raw=true [01:47]
mircea_popescu: meanwhile running without the shasums produces http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/iKMzq/?raw=true [01:49]
trinque: I think echo adds a newline, for one [01:50]
mircea_popescu: so it'd seem an 0a/0d gets mangled ? [01:50]
mircea_popescu: why the fuck would it do that. [01:50]
trinque: just... does. and look, they gave ya a "echo -n" to undo it! choice [01:50]
mircea_popescu: (i don't expect it does, because look in 2nd paste. the -=== bit is produced by echo. [01:50]
trinque: -n do not output the trailing newline [01:51]
mircea_popescu: god damned that was it, -n fixes it! [01:51]
mircea_popescu: oMY FUCXKING GOD ALREADY [01:51]
mircea_popescu: anyway. now they match. [01:57]
* mircea_popescu very much recommends this test : pick random textfile, put it through the above code, see if you find a dismatching line. [01:58]
mircea_popescu: atm watching it scroll, however many 100s of lines in, they all match. [01:58]
trinque: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/nCPv5/?raw=true << just one with tabs. [02:01]
trinque: phf's "foo" breaks it, though really, if the thing's an ascii paster, I dunno that the bug's anything but "fed uniturds, did not tell user to fuck off" [02:02]
mircea_popescu: pretty sure it simply drops non-ascii chars silently. which is the right thing at that. [02:02]
mircea_popescu: anyway, i'm calling it good before i fill the guy's disk with random lines. [02:03]

phf: ben_vulpes: are you using hunchentoot? [11:25]
phf: so it shouldn't be loosing anything in 0-127 range, at least the foo file comes through clean. it is trying to parse the input as unicode (and i'm pretty sure it's the server doing it, because curl is sending it 8bit clean) [11:34]
mircea_popescu: phf got a sample case to work on ? [11:34]
phf: because everything >127 is getting replaced with efbfbd which is unicode "REPLACEMENT CHARACTER" in utf-8 [11:35]
mircea_popescu: phf yes but does it ever collate into an unicode character or anything of the sort ? [11:35]
phf: it parses input file as unicode and replaces anything that's ascii code >127 with http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/fffd/index.htm [11:36]
mircea_popescu: hm. [11:37]
phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-07-16#1684895 [11:37]
a111: Logged on 2017-07-16 02:50 phf: i'm using this function http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/K916E/?raw=true to post this file http://glyf.org/tmp/foo i'm posting it by doing a command "cat foo | wotpaste" [11:37]
phf: foo is a specially crafted file which is simply a sequence of bytes from 0 to 255 [11:38]
mircea_popescu: possibly there's something else afot though, because that wouldn't have afected a makefile, ie the original problem is it. [11:38]
mircea_popescu: no, i see that. [11:38]
phf: right, we're in agreement here. ascii should've remained untouched [11:39]
phf: i mean, we've had very many tests demonstrating it, part of ongoing "paster ate my characters" asciilifeform saga [11:40]
phf: but i figure i'll try pushing a binary file through (which wasn't the spec anyway, just wanted to see what actually happens) [11:40]
mircea_popescu: fwiw i never did manage to verify the saga was anything more than alf's extremely short fuse. [11:41]
phf: :> [11:41]
mircea_popescu: and i am not about to see 500 or 5 million instances of that morph into some kind of actual proof of anything. [11:41]
phf: nor would my explorations ever corroborate that [11:41]
mircea_popescu: anyway, so far : it's not clear that it actually does anything untoward to ascii my tests as they were failed to find an example. we did discover it replaces nonascii chars with some random gunk, which yes should be changed but not really much of a point or anything [11:42]
mircea_popescu: i thought maybe it is the case that it takes a 2 or 3 byte item which starts with valid ascii and tries to interpret it as some sort of unicode bs and in the process ends up applying a transform to the text somehow. but unless we have the actual magic string, we're not finding this. [11:43]
mircea_popescu: which is why i asked if you have anything like that. [11:43]
mircea_popescu: i tried for isntance feeding the original makefile in line by line with my comparer thing, but all the lines match. [11:44]
phf: so the utf-8 parser takes anything in the 0-127 range as is, so we definitely wouldn't have any "magic string" cases in the happy path (the unhappy path being that you can apparently specify file type and encoding when posting to an rfc2388 form, and the server can happily decide to transcode it in whatever way it pleases) [11:47]
mircea_popescu: there's no way he's fixcing that however, outside of making a whole new tmsr http [11:48]
mircea_popescu: meanwhile at the faux buffet, http://68.media.tumblr.com/f2bceb97702aa6374118a870fafe0bc1/tumblr_oi6f6tt2zr1stzc8to1_1280.jpg [11:49]

mod6: I'll be spending some time this week to try to get adacore's stuff built into gentoo with gcc. not sure now how this will go, but will let you guys know. [17:19]
mod6: perhaps if i can get that working, then I can use the -cflags -O2 thing alright without issues. [17:19]
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> nah everybody knows, first lynching, then barnraising << AHA, barn commemorates honored tree! [17:49]

mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: not the problem. my thing builds on both adacore's and trad gnu gnat. << yeah not sure what the problem is. it's a binary installation of gnat via apt-get, so that, i'm sure is part of the issue. however, it works better than the first ada configuration that I had, which, didn't work at all. [21:57]
mod6: My thinking is that, if i need to be able to use all the switches ad denoted in your makefile (since my mine doesn't seem to allow for that), I may need the adacore configuration. [21:58]
mod6: I'd be happy to try anything on my environment for you if it were to help sus out what might be wrong with it. I truly have no idea where to begin on this thing. [21:58]

BingoBoingo: dat url, how do referrers work anymoar? [22:00]
asciilifeform: mod6: plz post the tarballs that your gnat was made from [22:02]
asciilifeform: so i can replicate your wtf. [22:02]
asciilifeform: ( possibly... ) [22:03]
mod6: not even sure if that's possible... will look [22:03]
asciilifeform: it had to come from somewhere, neh [22:03]
mircea_popescu: mod6 possibly not aptgetting a binary but instead building source may fix it for you ? [22:04]
asciilifeform: fwiw i have a box with the adacore bin gnat, everything worx great even there [22:05]
mircea_popescu: it's not all that rare that precompiled binaries are incorrectly marked and don't actually run on specific setups [22:05]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yea, but one of those things, works if it works and doesn't if it doesn't. [22:05]
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: his runs but somehow barfs, for 1st time, on this particular ffa. [22:06]
mircea_popescu: hm [22:06]
mircea_popescu: that doesn't sound very much like it then huh. [22:06]
asciilifeform: mod6: plz repaste your barf [22:06]
asciilifeform: i misplaced it [22:06]
mod6: this is all the stuff that is installed (i think) via apt for gnat: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/mZRtO/?raw=true [22:11]
mod6: i can, i guess, bundle all those deb packages and send 'em. [22:11]
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: plz repaste your barf << ok, shall I rerun your make, included with the fact.tar.gz ? [22:12]
asciilifeform: yesplz [22:13]
asciilifeform: btw mod6 , you ran it with the contents of the tarball, yes ? [22:14]
asciilifeform: as it was [22:14]
asciilifeform: or changed ? [22:14]
mod6: yup. totally unchanged. am posting... [22:16]
mod6: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/ruy0P/?raw=true [22:16]
asciilifeform: ty mod6 [22:16]
mod6: np, thank you for the help! [22:17]
mod6: im not sure what it doesn't like about 142, 146 -- they look like a lot of otherlines in ffa. so not sure what it thinks isn't kosher. [22:17]
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 possibly not aptgetting a binary but instead building source may fix it for you ? << yeah, this is always a bad idea. only reason i did it, was to get an ada env stood up quickly. i had a super weird problem on the first environment that I tried on. the gnat version didn't match the gcc version and was getting like non-determinstic errors. [22:19]
mod6: so, as a trial, i set it up on my eulora box. [22:19]
mod6: and, suprisingly it worked. [22:20]
mod6: my goal is to get gnat setup on gentoo, but the main problem is there, you have to hand-roll the entire thing because the gnat package for gentoo requires gcc6 [22:20]
mod6: shinohai, I think, figured out a way to do this, and pointed me at: http://www.adacore.com/products , but I haven't dug into it yet myself. [22:21]
asciilifeform: we might have to confiscate gentoo etc sooner rather than later. [22:21]
asciilifeform: mod6: the official adacore gnat installs in 3minutes, but with obvious caveat (you live with binarolade) [22:22]
mod6: well, like I was saying in #trilema-mod6 around that same day was, perhaps we're going to need to start freezing some of the things required to stand up a gcc4+gnat4 if it becomes required. i have a fear that this shit will start to disappear eventually. [22:22]
asciilifeform: seems like already disappeared from gentoo latest portage neh. [22:23]
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: the official adacore gnat installs in 3minutes, but with obvious caveat (you live with binarolade) << yeah, i see they do have bins, but was going to custom handroll my own, to not only get one sanely built for my own environment, but will also allow me to set whatever ./configure flags I might need for optimizations. [22:23]
asciilifeform: though i will point out that gnat+gcc5/6 might not in fact suffer from same horrors as cpp on same. [22:23]
mod6: asciilifeform: yah, gentoo is looking for a package maintainer for gnat. [22:23]
mod6: but... [22:23]
mod6: im more referring to the massive tarball that you get from adacore [22:24]
mod6: it actually distributes a ton of inner packages (requirements) like, gcc, gdb, zlib, etc etc. [22:24]
mod6: (instead of just being a tar of just it's own source0 [22:24]
asciilifeform: mod6: you may recall, that it is not possible to build gnat without... gnat [22:28]
asciilifeform: ( how this was finessed on day0 -- i do not presently know ) [22:29]
mod6: lol [22:29]
mod6: i guess i didn't realize that, i thought you just, ofc, need a working gcc. [22:29]
asciilifeform: this so far is in fact the thing i like least. [22:29]
asciilifeform: mod6: gnat is an ada proggy. [22:29]
mod6: aha, ok. i get what you're sayin' [22:29]
asciilifeform: so 'working gcc' is guaranteed to not suffice. [22:29]
asciilifeform: it uses gcc backend tho, so also needs a working gcc. [22:30]
asciilifeform: but you already knew this. [22:30]
mod6: also, above, I pasted the wrong link to adacore, here's the one that I was given to get the adacore source: http://libre.adacore.com/download/configurations [22:34]
mod6: my apologies to anyone following along. [22:34]
phf: presumably original version was assembled by jean ichbiah out of twigs, a simula compiler, a UNIVAC machine, a chicken, a wrench, a discarded truck tire. the process was documented in BUILD-PROC.TXT.3 [22:35]
mod6: ok, so i dropped on a binary install of adacore onto my gentoo environment here just to test... [22:51]
mod6: will grab alf's fact.tar.gz nao, and see if it works. [22:51]
mod6: lol, wait till you see this: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/a3Hw9/?raw=true [22:53]
mircea_popescu: phf i thought that was lisp [22:56]
mod6: asciilifeform: also, what's weird is, despite the errors in the last paste above, an 'ffa_fact' binary is still compiled. [23:00]
mod6: and works. [23:00]
mod6: *blink* [23:00]
phf: nah, lisp has been using the same image file since the early mccarthy days. each consecutive versions were implemented by manually patching the image file roughly into the needed shape all the way to present implementations [23:01]
mircea_popescu: that'd explain all the ebcdic [23:02]
mircea_popescu: and in other news, bilderburg. https://statusrsk.com/files/hist-lst.html [23:05]
phf: kind of reminds me of those personal homepages of schizophrenics back in the early days of the internets [23:11]
mircea_popescu: kinda reminds me of the various "cryptocurrencty" and "blockchain" communities. [23:12]
mircea_popescu: i suppose these are rather compatible memories. [23:12]
asciilifeform: 'No Mircea Popescu (his blog, ranting) is not the DAO hacker, but he does know what actually happened to Cryptsy. Polonix.com doesn't know how to handle floats/doubles/scientific-notation and it is being manipulated in margin trading. 10% (soon to be 20%) of all mining rewards go to the Bilderburg Group' << lollamatic [23:12]
mircea_popescu: in other sads, i spent most of the day at the local celebration, which included ~1000 horses. everything smells of manure. [23:13]
mircea_popescu: it's like i fell into 1717 somehow. [23:13]
asciilifeform: mod6: i suspect that your env path needs tweaking [23:14]
asciilifeform: e.g. PATH=/opt/gnat/bin:$PATHexport PATH in your .bashrc --- or wherever it is [23:15]
mod6: oh, weird, i installed everything to /usr/local/gnat [23:15]
mod6: and i already added: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/gnat/bin to my ~/.bashrc [23:16]
mod6: PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/gnat/bin export PATH [23:17]
mod6: weird. [23:17]
mod6: <+phf> kind of reminds me of those personal homepages of schizophrenics back in the early days of the internets << scammers. [23:19]
mod6: fwiw, if i just run `gnatmake ffa_fact`, does not error. [23:20]
asciilifeform: on what box did it ever ? [23:21]
mod6: never did, that always seems to work. can't figure out why it says "gcc: error: language ada not recognized" [23:22]
mod6: either way, think I should run the ffa_fact test? [23:22]
asciilifeform: if it runs... [23:23]
phf: nah, you guys, there used to be sites, geocities style, made by actual schizophrenics. they were awesome. it was the kind of place where they discussed bildeberg and complained about the high doses of lithium or whatever prescribed by their doctor (who was taking direct orders from ronald reagan who was secretly still controlling the shadow government of the united states through the high concentration of ...) [23:24]
asciilifeform: timecube!! [23:24]
asciilifeform: i do wonder where these vanished to [23:25]
mod6: see how long it takes? this is a core2duo (old box) with 4gb of ram [23:25]
mod6: <+asciilifeform> if it runs... << ok will try [23:25]
asciilifeform: mod6: ram is 100% irrelevant here [23:25]
mircea_popescu: now they're fat girls raving about how they were almost raped by the subway. [23:25]
phf: oh yeah, timecube, but that one is almost legit. [23:26]
asciilifeform: yeah but where are the original 'they' [23:26]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i expect they're still there unfindable now because we stupidly decided to take google seriously. [23:26]
asciilifeform: aah [23:26]
asciilifeform: likely. [23:26]
asciilifeform: this and possibly + speedy deletion by 'blogger' etc kolhozed for 'term of service violation' for lese mageste [23:26]
mircea_popescu: when i was a child, i read a story, well written in the fantastic realist embryonic style. it contained a lamp for making darkness, which struck me then as the pinnacle of antipossible objects. [23:26]
mircea_popescu: except, that is ~the only proper way to describe google. [23:26]
mircea_popescu: it is the world's first, and to my knowledge the world's only, darkness making lamp. [23:27]
mod6: ok off it goes. [23:27]
trinque: ha strangely apt, mod6. [23:27]

mod6: this box does nothing else other than just test builds/dev for trb, and is currently idle. should be a decent test. albiet much slower than the metrics collected with alf's i7 box. [23:27]

mircea_popescu: phf im not sure how the shoes cut in. BingoBoingo what's the shoe idea ? [23:34]
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you know the funny thing with clitoral presentation is that both top and bottom are "naturally" just to different people! [23:34]
asciilifeform: aha! [23:35]
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well feet have balls and Cartman's cunts have balls. Also the oo sound. Why not have Cuntshoos. Very detective sounding like Gumshoe [23:52]
