ben_vulpes: so cusp -> cuspy -> cuspily
ben_vulpes: it ain't conjugation 'cause it ain't a verb, (and this question clearly makes me an "ESL" speaker) so what is the linguistic term of art for constructing language elements like this?
mircea_popescu: there isn't a "like this"
mircea_popescu: in general, re parts of speech, it's called flexion.
mircea_popescu: verbs have conjugations, nouns have declensions.
mircea_popescu: there's also derivation, when stems are altered to fit concepts.
mircea_popescu: verbal flexion follows tense, aspect and number accord with the nouns. it also applies to adverbs in some languages. noun declension follows case and number. these are grammar rules.
mircea_popescu: derivation on the other hand is how you obtain lesser from less, or beautiful from beauty, so it's prolly what you were after.
ben_vulpes: c'est possible
ben_vulpes: i'm frustrated by having been taught a myriad of languages (to retard-level competence only), but NEVER LATIN

ben_vulpes: nothing like the forum to point out the inadequacies of one's history
mircea_popescu: anyway, most latin speakers in the history of that language learned it as adults.
mircea_popescu: the fate of all successful empires.
ben_vulpes: i have only learned programming languages as an adult
ben_vulpes: i just referred to myself as an adult
ben_vulpes: i suppose a 'learn latin as an adult' strategy is going to take a few weeks to cook up.
mircea_popescu: what's the rush.

My midnight snack, a half-eaten cream puff, lay awkwardly on the floor.Suddenly, I heard a wicked scream just before

BingoBoingo: Another machine generated gem: Stop screaming I was thknniig wait that was me screaming. Where is Cream Puff? I told them we shouldn’t come to the Boingo house. Everyone knows it’s haunted. There are all sorts of wicked smells coming from the basement and now the basement has Cream Puff. Who knew what sort of ghoulish things they may do to her then I see her … it’s Cream Puff I think….she came from the back of the house.

One of the first uses of the term Vandwellers was in the United Kingdom showman and Van Dwellers' Protection Association, a guild for travelling show performers formed in the late 1800s. Shortly afterwards in 1901, Albert Bigalow wrote “The
punkman: Vandwellers”, about people living on the verge of poverty having to live a nomadic life in horse drawn moving vans."

mod6: so was thinking about pushing out that v99995 today.
mod6: but found an edge case that causes an infinte loop.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 5978 @ 0.0005636 = 3.3692 BTC [+]
mod6: this happens if the antecedent hash matches the descendant hash.
ben_vulpes: i would like to see the vdiff that craps that down
mod6: the fix for this amounts to adding one condition statement when building the map of hashes.
ben_vulpes: i am reminded of the "enumerating badness" thread
mod6: ben_vulpes: it basically shouldn't ever happen, but it could and since; no means yes, yes means anal.
ben_vulpes: ideally a v impl. knows what vpatches are to look like and barfs on anything that doesn't look like that instead of trying to catch all of the edge cases
mod6: to test it, i had to hand-diddle one of the vpatches. easy enough to do. if someone is doing something very strange or bad or whatever on their system it could lead to an infinate loop.
ben_vulpes: well at least it's not a fork bomb?
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 63304 @ 0.00056606 = 35.8339 BTC [+]
mod6: well, no forking going on. im guessing it'll die when it runs out of ram, but haven't checked that yet.
mod6: what do you mean by "v impl. knows what vpatches are to look like"
mod6: how would it know ahead of time, short of having a hash for the vpatch itself?
ben_vulpes: the structure, not the contents. 'fork bomb' was a joke, mod6.
ben_vulpes: don't take me too seriously this morning mod6 i got dressed and went to the office before realizing it was still sunday
mod6: yeah, in this regard, my V basically does know what to look for in a given vpatch file -- the thing it wasn't doing is checking that the hashes match eachother -- which can cause a downstream infinate loop when traversing the map.
mod6: *infinte
mod6: no worries ben_vulpes.
mod6: ive been a bit fried lately myself.
mod6: ive got problems at the shit-shoveling factory that are giving me headaches :/

assbot: The Mensch Computer ... ( http://bit.ly/20ULDz2 )
gribble: The operation succeeded.
asciilifeform: 'The Mensch Computer is a solid state computer that was never designed to compete in the PC market. It's not a PDA, calculator, home controller or personal organizer, but it could be any of these things. It was designed to provide simplicity without complexity allowing users to evolve it into their own creation. Many people put a lot of thought and many years into the design to provide a head start for many projects. There are
asciilifeform: several assembly language library routines built into firmware and a ROM monitor allowing the ease of programming any of the included devices including graphics, sound, game controllers, communication to a PC, Printer or Modem or other solid state devices. The ROM monitor provides an easy interface menu for checking registers and modifying data in memory. All software listings, schematics and documentation are included.'
asciilifeform does not own this box, cannot recommend or disrecommend !!
asciilifeform: but sounds vaguely and pleasantly temple-os-y.
asciilifeform: appears to use a variant of the 6502 processor that is still made by western design inc.

ben_vulpes: this is why tab aligned shit in code is the devil
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo "thousands of years of cultural tradition assualting the beloved practice of open defecation in rural India"
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: what am i looking at
trinque: asciilifeform: exwm is... an x11 window manager written in elisp
trinque: I use the thing, love it actually
asciilifeform: why elisp
trinque: so that all windows are emacs buffers
trinque: rather, emacs windows
trinque: amounts to being able to get around rather quickly with a uniform set of keybindings and a simple mental model
trinque: rather than having window management both at the x11 level and again in emacs

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: very spiffy looking machine
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: quite unobtainable, it seems.

BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Shame. That 6502 box looks like it would make a spiffy musical instrument since it has the game port for midi

ben_vulpes shrugs
trinque: asciilifeform: funkenstein's patches applied to bitcoind patched with the 99996 script for me
trinque: I saw the same error with pywallet
asciilifeform: to pick up a thread from yesterday, re: rf shields that pass light,
asciilifeform: in my collection of junk there is an apple wireless keyboard thing
asciilifeform: it has a power led that shines through the aluminum chassis
asciilifeform: (the latter has microscopic holes lasered in it, in a circle pattern approx. the size of a printed period)
asciilifeform: this kind of thing would be an expensive but very decent display-shield.
asciilifeform: (would have to laser a few million holes)

kakobrekla: the easiest is to pull wallet from backup :)
asciilifeform: funnily enough, the malleators got to it first.
asciilifeform: interestingly, immediately while i sent the double.
asciilifeform: (is there some principle whereby they would wait until i do ? why ?)
