mircea_popescu: nono but the circumstances. he posted on fb ?
mircea_popescu: about the dangers of evil ai ?
asciilifeform: their cult has been 'evaporatively cooling' (y's own term!111) for ages.
mircea_popescu: so that what, the idiot fbheads can click the correct emotional response icon to help the evil ai segment them ?
mircea_popescu: ah-HA!
mircea_popescu: i knew gmaxwell wasn't intelligent enough to come up with that stupid shit on his own.
asciilifeform: and 'post on fb' to these benighted folk is same as voting in the obummer election, etc. - just 'something all civilized do' or whatnot.
mircea_popescu: so he scarfed it up from derpowksi ?
asciilifeform: http://lesswrong.com/lw/lr/evaporative_cooling_of_group_beliefs << original piece on same

mircea_popescu: pfff
mircea_popescu: "I was looking at a Java applet which demonstrates the use of evaporative cooling to form a Bose-Einstein condensate, when it occurred to me that another force entirely might operate to increase fanaticism. "
mircea_popescu: ahaha what. it OCCURRED TO HIM ?
mircea_popescu: heavens to herpinstocks, the idea is older than the fucking persian empire.
mircea_popescu: but the very grand intellectualistic value of someone who was watching einsten play out of his bose speakers in his spare time is well noted, of course.
mircea_popescu: how fortunate are we to have such bright minds around us. i gotta get myself one of them bose.
asciilifeform: wrong bose
mircea_popescu: you don't say.
asciilifeform: of all things in the piece, picking at the one that actually made sense ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, it occured to me while i was eating a niels bohr raisin cake (with little electron raisins floating in the batter) that this is how fucking spammers work, too. as discussed here a nujmber of times already.
asciilifeform: though i don't know why he had to go for the condensate, ordinary water behaves in quite the same way
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it didn't make sense.
mircea_popescu: quite.
mircea_popescu: see ?
asciilifeform: now - yes.
mircea_popescu: pretentious fuckwad / out of his weight ignoramus for the fucking win over here.
mircea_popescu: THIS is the product of wikipedia. THIS AND ONLY THIS.
asciilifeform: y suffered from delusions of physics - he was 'raised for physics' by his father, but didn't make the cut, and never lived it down
mircea_popescu: it doesn't "bring science". it empowers ambitious knownothing.
asciilifeform: ended up even writing 'guide to qm' for his cultists
mircea_popescu: and it occurred to me while conducting fart ciclotron reactions in my spare time that there's nothing more dangerous than an idiot with a little knowledge
mircea_popescu: than an ambitious idiot with a little knowledge.
mircea_popescu: and this is what wikipedia does. nothing else.

asciilifeform: the mega-question is why thiel is paying him to do this 24/7
mircea_popescu: java fucking appled NEVER DEMONSTRATED ANYTHING OMFG FUCK YOUR DUMB MOTHER WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S BROOMSTICK
asciilifeform: (and enough to support a harem, if rumour is to be believed)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform because thiel got money and no self respect.
asciilifeform: this is an explanation ?
mircea_popescu: i mean that quite profoundly - thiel has seen the narrow horizon of the pen and contented himself that "this is everywhere".
mircea_popescu: this is what having no self respect fundamentally means.
asciilifeform: why not put the money in a pyre and light it?
asciilifeform: would do loads more good than feeding yudkowsky
mircea_popescu: "good".
mircea_popescu: there can not be any good.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1390867 << no, i mean moving all stuff downsteream to depend on a' rather than a. this is rebasing the stuff downstream : from a base in a to a base in a'.
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 07:13:19; ben_vulpes: punkman: by my read 'rebase' as mircea_popescu uses it means 'dump into the v tree'
mircea_popescu: american or actual hasids ?
asciilifeform: afaik - actual, but living in usa
mircea_popescu: there is no such thing.
asciilifeform: then i have nfi, i simply do not know enough about subj
mircea_popescu: and for the record : ACTUAL hasidic jews, as found strictly beyond the pale, were some of the more pleasant folk you coulde ever meet, and greatly informs my tolerance of jews, as well as the tolerance of everyone who's not born past the stupid women line in western europe.
asciilifeform: presumably his father being a physicist of some kind, in the secular world, would suggest 'damaged' hassid
mircea_popescu: meanwhile the american hasids are a sort of jehova's witnesses in a slightly altered color scheme
mircea_popescu: ((the stupid women line in western europe is sometimes called the Hajnal line)
asciilifeform never saw this before, but it makes mega-sense
asciilifeform: the orc-human border !
mircea_popescu: mno.
mircea_popescu: there's absolutely nothing human about the sandvaginated saltmarshes.
asciilifeform: term of art
mircea_popescu: not in my art.
asciilifeform: from pelevin's yarn, where the precisely 'sandvaginated' folk living in antigravity sphere called themselves 'human' and, derisively, the still healthy folk below on the ground, 'orcs'
mircea_popescu: i follow the palaiologos tradition. whereby the orcs are a slightly more complex thing.
mircea_popescu: by and large, "people who do not feel comfortable living inside the wall".
mircea_popescu: or, "people with no indoor voice".
asciilifeform: ^ this also.

asciilifeform: it is actually quite feasible to have a patch that 'touches everything' but is visually inspectable in three minutes - e.g., mod6's proposed 'release patch' that merely tacks a comment to the top of every file.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1390907 << a) variety of implementation is considered good for security ; b) community of usage should be user driven not developer driven (or GOD FORBID) design mandated.

mircea_popescu: quite.
mircea_popescu: i don't think many people actually understand how bitcoin works.
asciilifeform: bbbut this is basic
mircea_popescu: the obvious parts especially
mircea_popescu: because the thing is so complicated it encourages people to approach it through narratives rather than observation
mircea_popescu: and the problem with narratives is the same problem train tracks have : 20 miles away from the track is much further than 200 miles DOWN the track
assbot: Logged on 30-01-2016 16:29:32; mircea_popescu: it's fucking ridiculous. the current cost of 14.7kb is something like
mircea_popescu: i know, that's why i put that sort of stuff in. help the thinking hats.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's miserable design while at it. seriously, X pays Y for his imposition upon Z ?
asciilifeform: and if we calculate the ~long-term~ cost for me of storing 14kB, not only the disk, but the mains current, migrating from disk to disk, parity checks nightly, etc. - this is a pretty penny
mircea_popescu: but this was also discussed variously and from multiple angles.
asciilifeform: esp. since i gotta keep storing it for so long as i care to have any dealing with bitcoin
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform technically, you don't get to factor back-ups, because the chain itself is its best backup.
asciilifeform: a backup that is not under my control is not a backup at all.
asciilifeform: can call it something else, it is useful, aha, but NOT backup.
mircea_popescu: right but you see what i mean.
asciilifeform: miserable design, like carnot engine is miserable, but it is quite unclear that a less-miserable alternative physically is possible
mircea_popescu: no argument.
asciilifeform: but yes, it fundamentally it violates the principle i stated here as 'nobody gets anything just for showing up, or the flies eat the meat' (see the bastard blocks thread, and the single-packet authentication as elixir against ddos threads)
asciilifeform: which is why i predict that bitcoin is condemned to migrate behind the very tall fortress walls of something like gossipd
asciilifeform: where indeed nobody gets value for showing up and being a fly
mircea_popescu: research went into this in the deep, dank cellars of my dirigible. there's a lot of the original rock involved. it may even not be wrong design, horror of horrors.
mircea_popescu: anyway. this is a poorly understood point as of yet at all levels - the clergy and the populace.
asciilifeform: which?
asciilifeform: (which it)
mircea_popescu: the whole node conundrum
asciilifeform: it is a working design IF placed behind walls.
mircea_popescu: understand something re that principle of yours : money is fundamentally a community function.
mircea_popescu: there is no objective money.
asciilifeform: if exposed to flies - quite wrong.
mircea_popescu: aha.
asciilifeform: right now there are simply insufficient flies, and their proboscis - insufficiently sharp and long, to make this point properly felt.
mircea_popescu: this is also true.
mircea_popescu: but the point does stand, that gold on mars is not gold but just a metal.
asciilifeform: money is a community thing, aha. but recall that in ancient times peasants lived and died for generations without, in many cases, ever touching money
mircea_popescu: surely.
asciilifeform: just like today most folks die without touching electron microscope.
asciilifeform: and what's the 'original rock' ?

mircea_popescu: community doesn't mean "everyone". nor does it mean "people you'd expect". a guy's harem is not composed of all the women that exist, or all the women he ran into. nvertheless, it works just fine.
asciilifeform: there is this notion, probably rooted in very fundamental christian 'inner light' poison, that the excluding group has the burden of explaining to rando derp who asks 'but why not me!?'
mircea_popescu: no such thing.
mircea_popescu: woman that wants to know why she's not in the harem needs only ask herself.
asciilifeform: not in ~a~ harem
asciilifeform: but there is not necessarily a reason why she is not in ~the particular~ harem, and it is not the duty of that harem keeper to provide a logical 'reason'
mircea_popescu: well i said the not a. woman who wants to know why she isn't in any particular one ~need only ask herself~.
asciilifeform: then yes
mircea_popescu: "what did i do to be in ?" "how did it fail ?" "how did i fix it ?" "how did it fail still ?" "how did i fix that ?"
mircea_popescu: either she keeps going, in which case she's not in the harem yet, or else gives up, in which case there's the answer.
mircea_popescu: "oh but what of equality!" "the only thing equal to all its downstream is 0".

mod6: <+ben_vulpes> unrelatedly, while we're ripping the rug out from under mod6, is there a good reason to continue with the inconsistent directory structure of `./.seals' and `./patches'? << this was in alf's original POC. i think it can stay. especially because you *can* name the dirs whatever you wish.
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> ;;later tell mod6 i got v.pl into a weird place where it didn't clean up its gnupg tempdir. perhaps consider using an "exit_gracefully" function where you're currently simply "die"-ing. << this basically /shouldn't/ happen. i'll follow your steps here and try to see what went wrong.
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> ;;later tell mod6 stick a random file with .html suffix in the patches dir to reproduce the stale gnupg dir big << this is what I'll test with.
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> ;;later tell mod6 i believe i have a bug for you: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/8d9ad794-4b47-407e-9db4-a9a8cb2c70b4/ << lol, what did you do to this poor thing!

asciilifeform: soo i have a result
asciilifeform: but also a dilemma
asciilifeform: mod6 et al:
mod6: <+trinque> mod6: ah yep, I saw that doing the makefiles << umm.. thats bad. because that means it doens't happen to me, but apparently it happens "in the field" from time to time?
asciilifeform: i fixed the very subtle version number setting bug
asciilifeform: but i do not know how to issue the patch
asciilifeform: it can be one of two kinds:
asciilifeform: 1) works with shiva-less main trunk
asciilifeform: 2) applied to shiva branch.
asciilifeform: 3) can issue both.
asciilifeform: 4) can let somebody else do it
asciilifeform: what'll it be
mod6: 1
mod6: or 3
asciilifeform: ok gimme 10min or so then.
mod6: something in shiva breaks it up eh?
asciilifeform: not exactly
asciilifeform: just that it touches same files.
mod6: ok no rush here.
mod6: take your time.
mod6: trinque: thanks for deedbotting
mod6: looks good. matches mine exactly.
mod6: danielpbarron: hey there Sir, wanna update the wiki & test the steps from a newb standpoint when you get a moment? Y^
mod6: s/Y//
mod6: ben_vulpes: thanks for testing V. i appreciate that.
mod6: testing really helps at any time, but especially ~before~ we bundle up and release
mod6: so if you see activity in that direction, ask for a test bundle or test code, whatever. good to catch any things like this before I send itout.
mod6: furthermore ...
mod6: <+mod6> <+ben_vulpes> "gpg: WARNING: not a detached signature; file `buildroot-2015.05.tar.gz' was NOT verified!"? << i've just run this again myselfand logged output here: http://dpaste.com/0P2QXYG.txt I'm not sure how what you saw happened there. :/ << im wondering if this could be related to a GPG version thing or something? because the line of code that is executed here is this:

phf: asciilifeform: so that new version replaces old patch?
asciilifeform: no.
phf: addition?
asciilifeform: it is a patch to mod6's press head.
asciilifeform: as requested.
mircea_popescu: phf pretty much yeah.

asciilifeform: mod6: what prevents you from renaming them ?
asciilifeform: it won't alter the hash
mod6: nothing, i did this.
phf: mircea_popescu: nodes are clickable
asciilifeform: ty mod6
mircea_popescu: <mod6> or 3 << asciilifeform 3
mod6: thats how i tested and built the stuff yesterday at phf's behest.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: which 3
mircea_popescu: "which'll it be"
mircea_popescu: "three"
mircea_popescu: think of it as a poem.

asciilifeform: phf: very, very spiffy
mircea_popescu: phf very nice and good.
mod6: asciilifeform: what was interesting on these ones is that not only idn't they contain *.vpatch.asciilifeform.sig -- they were: *.vpatch.asc
mircea_popescu: by now alf no longer really wants the book
mircea_popescu: because what he really wanted was ths svg (not the PDF!!!) of a book
mircea_popescu: well really the ast, but whatevs.
asciilifeform: l0lz wake up up when i can see the actual src in this thing
mircea_popescu: trivial bolt-on.
asciilifeform: but really wake me up when it knows how to eat patchballs from www or ftp etc
asciilifeform: because turdatron delenda est.
mircea_popescu: which leads me to the following : it's not JUST patches that should be "thematically grouped".
mircea_popescu: the whole fucking program is supposed to be written as a tree not as a fucking scroll
asciilifeform: i am SICK AND MOTHERFUCKING TIRED of 'your line is 1 char too long fuckyou'
mircea_popescu: which is what "functions" as originally hacked into fortran/basic were supposed to do
asciilifeform: aha^
mircea_popescu: excepot from a braindamaged locus of "who could need more than one node level"
asciilifeform: dijkstra, 'structured programming'
mircea_popescu: aha
mircea_popescu: i had the silent intuition that there'd be a second gate in between the code and the "war of comments" outer gate discussed in thr logs last week. there is! this!
mircea_popescu: proper fucking structure.
mircea_popescu: truth is defended in this order by a) structure and b) text&context.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1391302 <<< dawg simmer down, it's not like jurov wrote it with the express purpose of aggravating you.

asciilifeform: mod6 et al: seems like my verstring patch works with ALL branches
asciilifeform: (shiva and ordinary)
asciilifeform: so the readme is a lie.
mircea_popescu: hm
asciilifeform: (verstring ~fix~ that is)
asciilifeform: no conflict.
mircea_popescu: wouldn't it be best to test before documenting a feature ? :D

mircea_popescu: phf can you also add the text on a futher link ? [code] ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: jurov is not to blame, the original design tip was actually mine
asciilifeform: but turdatron is not usable.
asciilifeform: it refused my latest patch with no logical reason i can discern
mircea_popescu: well as the great robbie williams one said, "at least now we know"
mod6: hey uh...
mod6: ok unpacked ur tarball. verified the sigs.
mircea_popescu: anyway, irc bot based submission is much better because bot can provide error response
mircea_popescu: trinque and ftr that error message should be "fuck you alf" by default.
mircea_popescu: every time it runs into something it doesn't know what to say about

mircea_popescu: phf yes, the list of all signatures seen to reach that leaf.
asciilifeform: mod6: from where comes this antecedent ?
mod6: ok, anyway.. lemme take a look at this.
mod6: so what i want to do
mircea_popescu: !rated phf
assbot: You rated user phf on 24-Jun-2015, with a rating of 2, and supplied these additional notes: Fixed our boxen!.
punkman: mircea_popescu: phf yes, the list of all signatures seen to reach that leaf. << that would just return "asciilifeform" :P
mircea_popescu: punkman no because it has genesis in there.
mod6: start without this patch : asciilifeform_malleus_mikehearnificarum.vpatchasciilifeform-programmable-versionstring.vpatch, or th mod6_der_high_low_s.vpatch
mircea_popescu: ~all~ signatures seen to reach that leaf.
asciilifeform: aha, buncha people signed genesis
asciilifeform: ideally, everybody
asciilifeform: (in the orchestra, that is)
mod6: then recode all this stuff.
mod6: just imagine that they don't exist, now we need to reimplement those changes.
asciilifeform: waiwut
mod6: should I do mine first? then you can make your changes.
asciilifeform: mod6: i am utterly confused now ?
phf: oh oh people signatures, yes
mod6: i wanted a whole replacement for asciilifeform-programmable-versionstring.vpatch, not just the fix.
mircea_popescu: phf actually asciilifeform has a point : two signature lists are needed. complete and dependent. C = all signatures seen on any of the packages pressed ; D = the set of all signatures on which the current press depends - ie, without them you can't reach that leaf.
asciilifeform: replacement?! whyt?!!!
mircea_popescu: lemme formalize this.
mod6: i'll fix all of this stuff.
mod6: i'll be afk for a bit.
mircea_popescu: A signed by a b c d ; B off A, signed by a, c, d. D off A, signed by a, d. C off D signed by d.
asciilifeform: mod6: if you want to backport the patch and the afterpatch, etc. i will read and sign the result.
asciilifeform: but imho this is unnecessary sweat.
mircea_popescu: the first list for C is a b c d whereas the 2nd list for C is D.
asciilifeform: whole point of v is to avoid having to pretend that symphony was farted out in one perfect go.
asciilifeform: we can live with the history !
asciilifeform: manually re-grinding everything every fucking time somebody finds a bug, is scutwork, and the time could be used to do something useful.
mircea_popescu: meanwhile the first list for B is a b c d whereas the 2nd list for B is (a) ; (c) ; (d) ie 3 lists.
asciilifeform: this is my official take on the question, which obviously nobody has to listen to.
asciilifeform: but there it is.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i'd say it's a degree question. if a hole found close to the surface, supuration is advised. if not, let blood carry the germs out. just like the body treats infection.
mircea_popescu: sure, people may maintain sparkly-clean trees for whatever reason anyway. but in general as to the "main" tree, best avoid both horns of the dilemma and tryt and sit in the middle.
asciilifeform: anyway if somebody insists on tamping versionstring and versionstring-fix into one path, i will read and sign it.
asciilifeform: later.
asciilifeform: but right now i'ma go to meatspace and won't be back until nightfall.

mircea_popescu: phf does this make any sense whatsoever ?
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 18:34:13; mod6: and next time, let's do this sort of testing before i ship
phf: mircea_popescu: is that a list of names that correspond to .wot? i.e. each patch has (asciilifeform, mod6, etc.) and then there's a set of all wots for current press?
mircea_popescu: basically i seek to answer two questions, from a management point of view.
mircea_popescu: question 1 is : who are all the people who contributed to this ?
mircea_popescu: question 2 is : who are all the people on whose word i am implicitly depending by building this ?
mircea_popescu: so by building B in the example i am in the situation where i know a and c and d must ALL lie.
mircea_popescu: whereas by building D i am in the situation where i know it's enough for d to lie.
mircea_popescu: (this approach probably makes the ancient "group is the enemy of intelligent life" / "only threat to wot model is agreement" etc painfully obvious - if a, c and d are a compact i'll just note them epsilon and pretend it's one thing)
phf: ah that gives you ability to press purely from wot knowledge, without reading the patch
mircea_popescu: quite.
mircea_popescu: must know who to thank and who to hunt down. that's what management is.
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1390963 << look into clasp then, i'd just started digging into it when asciilifeform released shiva
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 11:10:04; jurov: that aside, there are completely different set of requirements, like, easy debugging. if lisp, then rather something with slime and good library bundled.
ben_vulpes: it nominally offers a lot over standard cl cffi, but i have not verified that myself.
mircea_popescu: it is also the fundamental instrument by which intelligent people are to assure their subsistence. because yea, naggum had a very good point with the http://www.loper-os.org/?p=165

mircea_popescu: but the problem per se wasn't the end he approached, but the other end.
mircea_popescu: and if we fix the other end, we actually fix this problem.
mircea_popescu: and even without the economic consideration, from a purely intellectual perspective. what is this inhuman, anti-intellectual "the bitcoin developers" bs ? we're not living in the village of pythagora over here, and we don't expect "anonymity" to stand in for sovereignity like five years old. gimme the motherfucking list.

gribble: The operation succeeded.
asciilifeform: i came back to console because i realized that mircea_popescu was making a VITAL point that is in danger of being glossed over
asciilifeform: does anyone recall how my original vtron only showed linear flow ?
ben_vulpes nods
asciilifeform: and why i thought this to be sufficient ?
ben_vulpes does not nod
asciilifeform: it is because, in my original concept, the main knob that is to be twiddled by the operator is not the press head,
mircea_popescu: o wb alfie
asciilifeform: BUT THE WOT
asciilifeform: the wot!
asciilifeform: you vary the vot.
asciilifeform: wot
mircea_popescu: oh god, the wot!
ben_vulpes: wot wot
ben_vulpes: my wot, mon trezor!
mircea_popescu: who said "the iron! my god, the iron!"
asciilifeform: vtron, in primary mode of operation, is to climb the tree, as high as it can on each branch, operating using the current wotset
ben_vulpes: reheheally?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform still, this is the "orig" for that.
asciilifeform: this automagically gives you 'mod6 & ben_vulpes release', or 'what mircea_popescu is willing to use', or ' asciilifeform's bleeding razor'
ben_vulpes: because i want to press "shiva" into a tree that doesn't have, say, malleus_mikehearnificarum
asciilifeform: you just use different wotsets.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: that's when you bring out the press depth knob. OR alternatively sign the ones you want! and then press using a wot that contains only ben_vulpes
mircea_popescu: anyway, notice the fractal beauty of the world : list 1 is really "the wot" ; list 2 is necessarily the lordship list. and by its very nature ... you can or can not chose various different lordships depending on what it is you're trying to do.
asciilifeform: see, there are multiple ways to go about it
mircea_popescu: EXACTLY like how it worked back whne it worked.
asciilifeform: aha. mircea_popescu has it.
mircea_popescu: it's this sort of "doesn't repeat but rhymes" beauty that makes me thing we're really singing spheres music here.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: clasp is one of those 'lisps without eval' isnnit.
asciilifeform: there are good examples of this kind of thing, from the past, see 'chicken' and 'stalin'
asciilifeform: but it is pretty much the opposite of what we want here.

ben_vulpes: adlai: i don't know shit, frere, i just drag in dead birds for the adults to dispose of.
mircea_popescu: <adlai> if "standards" is plural, it's already noncompliant <<< for the record, the reason the enemy uses the plural there isn't that the enemy is this stupid, but that it believes in patchwork. ie, standards : one for this, one for that, together they make up a complete thing.
mircea_popescu: sort of freehand wot if you will
phf: clasp is very much anti-ba, there's no question about it, pulls a lot of projects together, of questionable pedigree
adlai: "anti-ba"!?
asciilifeform: including llvm
adlai: clasp is an answer to a specific problem which nobody here has... it's equally anti-pythagoras
asciilifeform: (the 'llvm is satanic and must die' thing is not as clear-cut as i would like, it is actually MORE readable and hackable than gcc. but i'm allergic, i confess.)
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes you know what "not making the cut" is wqith a woman ? even if you're a saudi prince and your daddy buys her for you ; even if you're an afghan monkey and she deeply believes she has to. there's a point where you make the cut or don't, and that's what it is.
mircea_popescu: physics is a well known whore. behaves the exact same way.

adlai: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1391465 << afaik, clasp will be superior to other lisps only if the bulk of your friction is at the interface itself. specifically, it does NOT have the same level of slime support you'd find in the mature lisp (sbcl and ccl)
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 19:07:51; ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1390963 << look into clasp then, i'd just started digging into it when asciilifeform released shiva
asciilifeform: adlai: and here i picked a lisp with 0 slime support
adlai: "lisp"
phf: adlai: clasp is a good fit for tendriling trb, if i had more time, i'd use it in a similar way to shiva. but then i'm already building trb on llvm/clang, etc. it is anti-ba though because of pedigree and ownership problem. can use it, if you have resources to read through 5 or so 100k loc projects
ben_vulpes: FIGHT
asciilifeform: 'scheme is the good half of cl'
mircea_popescu: phf 12 100k loc projects, turns out.
mircea_popescu: and i fear nobody does nor could anyone have such resources.
adlai: modern CL (as opposed to the ANSI doorstop) is a tool that evolved from a standard. r5rs is a standard. tinyscheme is a tool. etc etc... vita brevis, but there are at least a couple usable artes
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1391553 << hilariously, this is part of what i do for a living now.
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 19:29:40; mircea_popescu: and i fear nobody does nor could anyone have such resources.
asciilifeform: mega-bezzlatron ~does~ have resources.
mircea_popescu: to no significant eventual effect.
asciilifeform: can't disagree!
mircea_popescu: so then ... it doesn't.
asciilifeform: (pretty sure it all stokes the furnace at the end of the day)
asciilifeform: hey, having resources and having the brains to not stoke the furnace with'em are different things
mircea_popescu: as the linecount you're digesting increases you don't need more people. you need smarter ones. it's not like if you need one brick carried you hire one lout and ifg you need 10000 you hire 10000. it's like if you want 1kg carried you can use a dog, and if you need 10 tons you gotta learn to speak whale now.
asciilifeform: well yes
asciilifeform: there are no louts there, reading code.
asciilifeform: just me.
mircea_popescu: well so then. i don't want 10x as many people that can jump 1m. i want people who can jump 10m now.
mircea_popescu: wut ?
asciilifeform: 10 tons.
adlai: phf: also, afaict, clasp is designed for manipulating existing C++ libraries with your own tendrils, rather than tendriling an existing turdatron. tinyscheme is designed for the latter.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm the 'whale' that moves the 10 tonnes, there.
asciilifeform: (i don't work at '10,000 dogs' shops, as a matter of principle)
mircea_popescu: you know, if human ability were actually infinite, management wouldn't exist.
asciilifeform: it isn't infinite, but varies more than dog/whale.
mircea_popescu: definitely.
asciilifeform: more like whale/euglena.
mircea_popescu: point remains, resource needs don't scale well in this type of problem.
asciilifeform: it scales pretty well, if tmsr were an actual empire it could have a 100% mod6 and a 100% asciilifeform et al
asciilifeform: instead of ~5-10%
asciilifeform: granted this is not 10,000 dogs.
asciilifeform: but nobody ~needs~ 10,000 dogs.
phf: adlai: i don't see the difference. both require you to annotate your classes/method/data somehow. clasp requires less annotation with larger impact then tinyscheme, e.g. it knows about c++ and can do some advanced ffi-ing
asciilifeform: phf: cpp does enough munging at compile time that this whole concept is disastrously meaningless
mircea_popescu: ffi, fast fourier interfacing ?
asciilifeform: foreign function interface
mircea_popescu: o hey.
asciilifeform: phf: you can't repl straight into cpp, and trying is guaranteed to bring you to grief
phf: asciilifeform: that's what clasp does
asciilifeform: embeds a cpp ~interpreter~ ?
asciilifeform: even if this were so, this breaks the language semantics.
asciilifeform: think about it.
adlai: while you may want missile guidance on board the missile, you might not want the chip fab on board as well
asciilifeform: a cpp is that is interpreted, and where magic that normally happens during compilation can happen MORE THAN ONCE, and AT RUNTIME, is guaranteed semantic-distinct from ordinary cpp.
asciilifeform: cpp is not merely braindamaged, it is a roadkill that has sat in the sun for all of july
asciilifeform: stop trying to attach life support to it.
asciilifeform: (and this is pointedly not the intent of shiva.)
adlai: my understanding is that nobody here wants to make bitcoind, the minimal concrete-sealed weaponized Bitcoin-that-Exists, able to compile a new version of itself
mircea_popescu: god help us.
asciilifeform: adlai: me.
mircea_popescu: what ?
asciilifeform: obviously not with the cpp garbage.
asciilifeform: but the mythical os.
mircea_popescu: you mean bitcoin-os
mircea_popescu: oh
asciilifeform: aha.
mircea_popescu: well it'd pretty damned well be able to, else how is it an os
adlai: asciilifeform: isn't shiva supposed to be an optimal point BETWEEN sentient-AGI-bitcoinOS and jsonrpc on port 8332?
asciilifeform: i can't speak for others, but 'i come to bury ' the garbage, not to praise it.'
phf: asciilifeform: while the goals are different, the mechanism is the same. you annotate classes, methods and get stable refs in your lisp instance, which shares heap with the running c++ process.
adlai: rather than some continually-shifting goalpost that asymptotically approaches whatever sentience seems least broken
mircea_popescu: phf but these adnotations are necessarily not translateable.
asciilifeform: phf: annotate laboriously, by hand, and painfully aware of the impedance mismatches
asciilifeform: rather than automatic claptrap.
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1391045 << that said, he has the best twitter ever: https://twitter.com/peterthiel

assbot: Peter Thiel (@peterthiel) | Twitter ... ( http://bit.ly/1WVls5k )
mircea_popescu: adlai no, shiva isn't supposed to be "an optimal point". it is supposed to be a CORRECT replacement of a currently broken implementation.
mircea_popescu: and yes, both json and rpc are broken by design
asciilifeform: phf: know the stories where, in the Dark Future of Hello Kitty, man's neurons are replaced one by one with robotic ones, and he doesn't notice ?
asciilifeform: it is my intention to do this to trb.
adlai: lemme put it another way... somewhere in the ANSI spec are probably one, two, or even three ~hundred~ symbols which the weaponized bitcoind-os does not need in its guts. define-setf-expander? define-method-combination? where do you draw the line?
asciilifeform: adlai: ergo why i did not pick cl
mircea_popescu: too soon.
adlai: exactly.
adlai: ergo why the clasp horse is also unnecessary to continue flogging.
asciilifeform: also i laugh when folks take the spew of academitard 'compiler research' claptrap and try to actually use
mircea_popescu: well the other one bated him.
asciilifeform: sorta like going to a toy store to buy power tools
asciilifeform: 'hey this drill whirrs, more loudly even'
asciilifeform: let's use.
mircea_popescu: this log is moving so fast i'm actually getting contiguity issues trying to follow.
adlai: again, not trying to perscribe what's right; obviously asciilifeform understands what he's trying to do infinitely better than i can; but... i think the line is somewhere between embedding an interpreter for a subset of r5rs, and embedding a ~compiler~
asciilifeform: fortunately for mircea_popescu , now i go and pet pet and wander around.
asciilifeform bbl
phf: clasp is not "compiler research", is designed to scratch itch of a single person, for doing computational chemistry
adlai: happy wanderings asciilifeform
mircea_popescu: adlai there's no option to embedding a compiler in an os.
adlai: mircea_popescu: in these early days, when Bitcoin does not yet fully Exist, it seems as though everything is an option. the full shiva vision, as i understand it from recent logs, opens the door to doing exactly that, if some energetic idiot decides it's a good idea
mircea_popescu: looky : currently we have a script that pulls dependencies, checks them, and builds.
mircea_popescu: the reason alf wants a cd is because what he really wants is A BOOT CD.
adlai: i don't think it's a good idea and i'm trying to dispel the notion for others who may. i'm a little surprised at http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1391599 and probably misunderstood alf.
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 19:40:36; asciilifeform: adlai: me.
mircea_popescu: nor is this eventual situation avoidable at all.
adlai was "it's"ing about "doing exactly that", not about "BOOT CD"
adlai doesn't want a CD because 4/5ths of his hardware doesn't know what CDs are... but this is back to bedrock issues
mircea_popescu: i think maybe you've formed a partial idea of what's being discussed through the age old process of having read a partial set of what's been said.
mircea_popescu: but in any case, compiling bitcoin in bitcoin is not either a goal or liable to be implemented before actually having a bitcoin-fs say.
adlai keeps reading, both logs and seals, and maybe someday will have another partial idea
mircea_popescu: nevertheless, the fact that bitcoin-os is the unavoidable end of this entire process requires things be thought out with a view to that fact.
adlai: well patches, not seals. the latter aren't particularly stimulating reading material per se

mod6: oh yeah.
mod6: yeah, no clue what you did there.
mod6: i was able to press all of that out just fine.
ben_vulpes: the rebaked ones?
mod6: just had to stick his stuff into patches and .seals. but in all honesty, im not even sure if the patches & seals I'm using are what is indended at this point.
mod6: lets not worry about that for now. that thing is in its infancy.
ben_vulpes: so if i press those individually, in order, they work. but if i press the last patch, i believe that it fails to find its antecedents.
mod6: i kinda have to turn a deaf ear to a lot of this stuff until the new month starts, and even then, i gotta keep my eye on the prize - dispite any other problems on the periphery.
mod6: so ben_vulpes, understand that there is like a jumble of different things he submitted, and if the wrong ones are incorporated, it might puke.
mod6: like i said, lets just hold off on that.
mod6: it's not hurting anyone, and its not going in the release.

mod6: ok so whats going on there is that to preserve 80 cols, i create a command spanning two lines
mod6: "command part A" . "command part B" and set that equal to $import
ben_vulpes: so the '.' is both a line-break escape and string concatenation?
mod6: then in the next line i do this:
mod6: my $res = `$import`;
mod6: and execute $import and set the result (output) of the command to $res
mod6: <+ben_vulpes> so the '.' is both a line-break escape and string concatenation? << its not a line break. its just a string concatenation.
ben_vulpes: well there is a line break between those two strings
mod6: notice how there is a space after '=long '
ben_vulpes: sure
mod6: yup yup, i put a 0x0a in there just to preseve 80 cols. but perl deoesn't care nor does it add a '\n' to the command string
ben_vulpes: that's what i thought
mod6: ok.
ben_vulpes: thanks for confirming mod6

mircea_popescu: nope
mircea_popescu: phf does the archive.is implementation work for yo u ?
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: meaning that transactions can only be malleated from high->low order?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes in what sense "just as possible"
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes nope was @phf's question
ben_vulpes: oh.

mircea_popescu: "is it as possible to turn a grade from 50% to 75% as it is to turn it from 75% to 50%" ?
mircea_popescu: in what sense ? paper will carry anything. the social practice of throwing curves won't. etc.
ben_vulpes: if you have access to the gradebook...
mircea_popescu: if you mine yourself, on your own coin, it is possible to do anything.
ben_vulpes: so a decomposition then
ben_vulpes: i create a transaction with a low s value. someone listening to broadcast transactions can rewrite my tx to have a high s value.
ben_vulpes: correct?
ben_vulpes: (create and broadcast)
mircea_popescu: numerically, there is no way to distinguish between a transaction that was signed high and a transaction that was signed low and malleated to high
mircea_popescu: juist like numerically there is no way to distinguish between a transaction that was signed low and one that was signed high and malleated to low.
ben_vulpes: great, i follow.
mircea_popescu: mostly because the conversion consists of substracting from a constant
ben_vulpes: now, are miners not mining transactions signed low?
mircea_popescu: the miners are mining low-s as is and malleating all high-s and mining them as low-s

ben_vulpes: now were b,tmsr~ to run its own pool mining only high-s transactions, would clients in the wild reject those blocks?
mircea_popescu: i originally thought so but research in here shows that no, it's never checked.
mircea_popescu: feel free to read it yourself, pointer to code was in log
ben_vulpes: sure, i'm mostly confirming my own recollection.
mircea_popescu: right.
ben_vulpes: but digging as far down into the roots of my conclusions as makes sense to dispel ambiguity
ben_vulpes: uh next
ben_vulpes: how did you come to the conclusion that it was miners doing the malleation, and not nobodies malleating and rebroadcasting?
mircea_popescu: cui prodest.
ben_vulpes: > deeply unclear
mircea_popescu: cui prodest scelus is fecit, he who benefits from misdeed did it.
ben_vulpes: could just as easily be a USG FUD campaign.
ben_vulpes: how do the miners benefit though.
mircea_popescu: tx fee
ben_vulpes: it is greater on malleated transactions?! but but
ben_vulpes: this'd invalidate the signature.
ben_vulpes: i'm sure that i misunderstand.
mircea_popescu: if you include the tx, you get the fee. if you don't include it, for any reason, you don't get the fee.
mircea_popescu: since they agreed to only include low-s for whatever random reason / concern trolling / misinformed desire to be nice and good, they're stuck now.
mircea_popescu: note the very usg-tard approach to things : it IS true that ambiguous signatures are bad ; it is DEEPLY UNTRUE that we can counter this by AGREEING among ourselves "not to do it".
mircea_popescu: statutory solutions to bad design, a "western world" specialty.
ben_vulpes: but there's no actual reason why they couldn't mine high-s transactions, adherence to party line aside.
mircea_popescu: there is no real reason to do anything they do anyway

phf: mircea_popescu: it's broken across multiple dom elements
mircea_popescu: i guess i fucked it up when putting it on trilema ? asciilifeform ^ mind saying what the above link does ?
ben_vulpes: aha
phf: on safari first selection (if we were all...) simply breaks, second one works
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: has blessed us with a new root node with which to fuzz all v implementations
mircea_popescu: phf the truth is that it'd be great if there was a way for reader to select what text he's referencing. but if it can't be made to work then we can't really use it.
ben_vulpes: but it's so close! with only an unknowable amount of further hacking it could totally work!
punkman: why not highlight server-side
phf: ben_vulpes: so shiva 2 of 2 links to rest of tree, shiva 1 of 1 is a genesis with no descendants, and that whole tinyscheme_genesis_fixed tree presses into tinyscheme/ root that's not even inside bitcoin. i'm not sure what ascii is up to
mircea_popescu: punkman server doens't know what reader cares about.
punkman: just need a ? instead of #
ben_vulpes: phf: i see
mircea_popescu: punkman how do you figure this'd work ?
mircea_popescu: the dom is a wholly client side thing, server just spits out a string as far as it's concerned
punkman: it'd work better for viewing, because I've seen broken selections a lot too
mircea_popescu: viewport allignment also client side thing
ben_vulpes: a thing to do might be to leave the genesis press as-is, move the resulting tinyscheme dir into the correct shiva location and then press the rest of the patches reground to reference the shivadir
ben_vulpes: this means that v-pressings have to be idempotent.
ben_vulpes: eg that `v press shiva stans_sweet_patch.vpatch && v press shiva stans_sweet_patch.vpatch' must result in the same tree as running the command once.
ben_vulpes: so that operators can press, migrate dir, and press more.

ben_vulpes: i suspect v's toposort will need to account for multiple geneses
assbot: Logged on 29-01-2016 18:19:27; phf: right now it seems like an artifact of topo sort
ben_vulpes: either that or find roots first, toposort from each root, and then apply each set of toposorted patches in some arbitrary order
phf: well, original v uses python dictionary for "list to inspect", i.e. order is non-deterministic
ben_vulpes: mhm, i recall

mircea_popescu: you're thinking global scope like some sort of perlhead.
ben_vulpes: flow already makes this mistake iirc
ben_vulpes: but there's no guarantee that it renders a b c d e instead of d e a b c
ben_vulpes: BECAUSE FLATTENING TREES
mircea_popescu: huh ?
mircea_popescu: anyway. there is no concept of level defined outside of a press.
ben_vulpes refuses to give up
mircea_popescu: if you're pressing c, then all the leaves c depends on have levels, and only they have a level.
ben_vulpes: yes!
mircea_popescu: so a has 0 and c has 2 and d has nothing.
ben_vulpes: what is to be done with c' and c'', then (patches that also depend on b but have nothing to do with c)
mircea_popescu: if you're pressing e, d is 0, and e is 1, and a, b and c are all ?
ben_vulpes: yes i follow, slow as i am
mircea_popescu: aite.
ben_vulpes: but the primes, do i press them? or simply recurse up the antecedent chain cleanly?
mircea_popescu: what primes ?
ben_vulpes: a b {c, c', c''}
ben_vulpes: where c, c' and c'' all depend on b. if i press c, do c' and c'' make it as well?
mircea_popescu: that's entirely up to you neh ? i'd prefer it if i told you to press c for you to limit yourself to pressing c.
mircea_popescu: someone who is doing debugging might wish to see the whole tree all the way down
mircea_popescu: this is up to the user.
ben_vulpes: sure, and i don't take much umbrage at this.
mircea_popescu: generally from what i've understood, the default behaviour was production (1st above), whereas people these days decided they'd like to see development (2nd above). i also don't take umbrage with this.
mircea_popescu: but unconnected graphs are a horse of another feather.
mircea_popescu: you wanna see shiva, press e.
ben_vulpes: sorry for all the dumb questions, just working to tease out into explicitude what everyone else takes for granted.

BingoBoingo: Hey, Amazon will buy your copy for a $25 gift card though!
mircea_popescu: what, you thought they're only selling at 0.95 for a few years until barnes and noble goes under ?
ben_vulpes: the notion that there is any price for bits not agreed upon by a bid by people who want the bits and an opening of the floodgates by those who have them at an accepable rate is utter horseshit.
mircea_popescu: the notion of some retard somewhere paying a hundred he actually worked for so as to receive a pdf still makes me chuckle.

ben_vulpes: nifty, BingoBoingo
BingoBoingo: ty ben_vulpes
ben_vulpes: perhaps reference Bitcoin implementation instead of daemon, as daemon refers to how a process gets handled by whatever nix is handling procs locally
ben_vulpes: i will continue to drive for "reference implementation" over "real bitcoin" or such grandiosities
mircea_popescu: anyway, to summarize a century or two of purely french wankery for the benefit of the youthful lisper : what the publish&perish industry did in english on the basis of the bastardized electronic typewriter known as excel is not NEW in any sense, but merely a reimplementation of a traditional french passtime, originally played on more primitive instruments.
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Until it's BitcoinOS it's a daemon. It's important to refer to it as a number of descriptive things for legacy www reasons.
mircea_popescu: deleuze is exactly a worthless word pusher, trying to do "the x of y" like any silicon valley wanna-be. his "x of the y" is a silly "no identity exists save as a piling-on of differences"
mircea_popescu: but basically, and transparently, the driving force behind him, and the whole rest, is "what could we further say".
BingoBoingo: Oh, so basically a different Derrida wank
ben_vulpes: i'm always interested in finding the root nodes the 'further say'ers metastasized from
mircea_popescu: have we said that the icecream is square ? o ? how about the square is icecream ? that too? hmm... "icecream square is that" no ?
mircea_popescu: HA! IDEA! |\
mircea_popescu: but these are treacherous waters and really not advisable for the innocent.
mircea_popescu: especially seeing how there's exactly no benefit to be had.

BingoBoingo: Distinct problem though is lots of oversized patches in this V graph
mircea_popescu: al these khagne idjits'd have benefitted immensely from a modest physical education.
BingoBoingo: Well, what other conclusion is a bored German to come to?
BingoBoingo: He came from Prussia, not a Germany with clocks at the time
mircea_popescu: not that time's a prime order concept, but that it's both sad and unbecoming to field the matter with antiquated flintlocks left from 1700.
mircea_popescu: there's a lot more intelligent things to say about time, and certainly better doubts to present than "oh it's secreted by observation". especially in the fucking 60s.
BingoBoingo: It's a problem of making V patches too big, turds find a way
BingoBoingo: Or drugs
