mod6: I have a bit of a question here..
mod6: so going back to our discussion regarding: a->b->c->d all signed by x, if 'c' is removed then the flow should be a->b and now 'd' has become orphaned. the correct strictness, 'v' (wot-variant) drops 'c' out all together.
mod6: the reason, I'm finding, that my previous patch still listed a->b->d in the flow, is because 'd' got picked up as a root. and the reason it does is because at this point, it has no antecedents.
mod6: one way, I've found, to solve this is to ensure that any root in my list of roots, must be a "true root", in such that if the vpatch's every 'a'='false', then it is a "true root".
mod6: is this proper?
phf: yes
phf: also it's called "genesis"
mod6: phf: ok, see, there is a hack i could have put in, instead. where i just ensure that my root is named like /genesis/. But what if someguy calls his root, 1000 years from now, xyz.vpatch.
mod6: Then he's got a problem. So i felt like this type of checking, is more strict. And if it is proper, I will proceed.
asciilifeform: mod6: 'genesis' means 'all antecedents are 'false'n rather than 'no valid antecedents'
phf: ^
ben_vulpes: mod6: moreover the general case is looking to be "project-genesis.vpatch"
mod6: asciilifeform: sweet! then i think im in good shape.
phf: i don't mean that the patch is called "genesis", i mean that the concept is called genesis, so there's no need for new nomenclature like "true root"
mod6: ben_vulpes: so you think, what i'm calling the 'hack' to be just as good or more appropriate here? i'd rather check, personally.
mod6: http://www.mod6.net/v-99994-trace5.txt << here's a sample of what i'm saying
ben_vulpes: nono, it's not a hack to do here
phf: (defun genesisp (vpatch)
phf: (every (lambda (hunk) (null (from-hash hunk))) (hunks vpatch)))
phf:
mod6: im not sure that i get this ^ but... i think we're all saying the same thing.
asciilifeform: there is NO reason to 'enmagic' the string 'genesis'
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: 'genesis' means 'all antecedents are 'false'n rather than 'no valid antecedents' << just to re-iterate, does 'genesis' also apply to 'root' ?
asciilifeform: i can name a genesis xyz.vpatch.
mod6: right ^
mod6: this is what i wanted to avoid.
mod6: so i'll check, and accumulate roots that have only hashes that = 'false'.
phf: mod6: there's no such thing as "root". there's only genesis. you find all patches that satisfy the genesis requirement ("all antecedents are false") and you build your graph down from there
mod6: this is not true according to v99 from alf ^
mod6: "# It is entirely possible to have more than one root! ... exactly how, is left as an exercise for readers."
phf: well, then alf is being sloppy with his terminology
phf: root is a compsci term for a the topmost element of a tree. genesis is a vtronic term for the origin. on imlementation level they are identical, and generally describe the same concept, but in general "root" being "genesis" is an implementation detail
mod6: agree. just trying to be 100% positive I'm doing the right thing, before I do it. And it is discussion worthy imho.
ben_vulpes: in entirely unrelated microsoftery, http://archive.is/UrLGx
phf: mod6: we're on the same page
mod6: werd. thx for your input.
mircea_popescu: the point where genesis has for an antecedent "false" and nothing else is imo controlling.
mircea_popescu: no patch can be elevated to the status of genesis ; if it is a genesis of something it knows this, and the way it knows this is through the antecedent being false
mircea_popescu: which makes alf's objection to the mega discussion re antecedent enforcing etc weaker than he cares for it to be : turns out we ALREADY have the state machine.

ben_vulpes: run moar macos or how does it go
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski there's really no good reason to not serve arbitrart txn data. the fact that "modern" prb nodes can't support this is entirely their doom.
pete_dushenski: fuckin medium tho seriously. ugliest urls evar.
mircea_popescu: of course this also requires better indexing than currently done. but anyway
asciilifeform: which data
mircea_popescu: transactions, not in the memory pool or relay set
ben_vulpes: wait, what is the difference between mempool and relay set?
mircea_popescu: don't ask, live longer.
asciilifeform: no diff on trb

jurov: yep
asciilifeform: ^ is probably what mircea_popescu was thinking of ^
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: i don't disagree from a philosophical standpoint but nor can i tolerate having dead fucking trb nodes. that i should have to reboot a machine ~daily~ is the death of bitcoin. yukoners never had it so bad.
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: you have to reboot the whole machine?

ben_vulpes: phf: i only used windows as a wee one in school labs and a mildly less wee one in cad labs, so no idea re administration haxery
asciilifeform: and can you get a core dump out of the thing pete_dushenski
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: the thing phf refers to , is in use still, whenever i make (yes) xp box! < 400MB! (lighter weight than, e.g., africa-linux)
mircea_popescu: davout the deep problem there, with kraken as well as with any other of these websites, which is to say scams, is that YOU DO NOT get to pocket anything. in your case this was a loss, but in the case of bitfinex running away with millions in "profits" its inept "users" were supposed to have accrued but never did, the mechanism was more clearly in view
mircea_popescu: iirc this even made it to qntra, because the usg.dept of legal pretense's failure to act was exactly just as much damning of the whitehouse website based in maryland as of the bitfinex website based in nowhere.
ben_vulpes: phf: i have no idea how to fix macos

asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: this'd be the genuine article
asciilifeform: spray of crapolade from $somebody, designed to bog down your node and have it lose all peers
asciilifeform: also i see some 'connect() failed after select(): Connection refused' which iirc is bleeding edge prb kicking trb out
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: any idea how prb identifies a trb node?
jurov: ben_vulpes: prb 0.11 and newer insist on using improved protocol
mircea_popescu: sooner rather than later we have to attend to these sillynesses.
jurov: forgot which bip was that
ben_vulpes: dipshits
jurov: if they see peer does not support it, drop the connection
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski looks like stock blackholing. ipban the offenders, see what happens.
asciilifeform: one thing that palpably helps is the aws banhammer.
mircea_popescu: anyway - properly indexing txn so that we deliver the full data set ; properly handling the blackhole thing will actually ruin prb because nobody's fuycking migrating to their new protocol.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: blackhole, in my current understanding, is at least 4 distinct things
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: have done some, will try more banning.
asciilifeform: (that lead to same state - wedged node)
mircea_popescu: this'd make some fine subject of a priority work order, the only problem is that it's so intricate and we aren't fans of doing the work n times. but once trb sits down on a sql-fs it would all fall in place.
asciilifeform: and it is not in fact held up by the fs thing.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the idea, as idiscussed a few days ago, is to separate things and queue.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ultimately for so long as peers are unauthenticated and speak unauthenticated plaintext , there will be type4 blackhole.
mircea_popescu: never mind that.
asciilifeform: (the one unattributable to overload of any type)
asciilifeform: and for so long as block verification is single-processor, there will remain type1
ben_vulpes: while you're at it, type2 and type3 are?
asciilifeform: type2 ( pete_dushenski's ) is the garden variety shitflood. which is sometimes solved by ip ban, but only in the case of 'shrapnel addressed to occupant', i.e. idiot prb nodes wildly spamming crapolade, and not in the 'bullet with your name on it' case, where somebody actually has a sybil constellation drowning your trb node in liquishit, with no SINGLE ip misbehaving in any way
asciilifeform: type3 (this taxonomy is strictly from asciilifeform's notes, and is no canonical animal of any kind) is the 'thinking man's shitflood', where requested inventory is not a DOS by virtue of ~quantity~, but ~quality~ (flood of questionable but not immediately/cheaply rejectable material)
asciilifeform: 4 is where 1,2,3 can be ruled out with some confidence. could be mircea_popescu's 'magic packet', or just about anything, i have ~0 useful data.
ben_vulpes: ty asciilifeform
asciilifeform: i suppose for completeness one ought to include a '5' -- foolish folx who think that 4GB / non-ECC ddr4 / etc. is a trb node
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu has been running public nodez longer than i , and iirc has pretty good instrumentation, he might have something to add to this thread .

pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: thoughts on resolution to directed type2 floods ? the ips drowing me atm are from all over the map - china, spain, verizon, mci - no aws to speak of.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: the 'a' and 'b' are historic artifacts from my torture room. but notice, gnudiff ignores the name.
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: the only long-term answer is full wotnetization of the nodes.
asciilifeform: but it isn't happening tonight.
pete_dushenski sighs deeply
asciilifeform: and it isn't clear what will happen in re miners, for instance, when it does.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: ah
asciilifeform: one theoretical solution to every type of blackhole other than the (theoretical) 'nsa sprays shit directly into the pipe on the backbone' is to make trb actually multiprocess
asciilifeform: but it is also not clear to me whether this can be done and the result still referred to as 'trb'.
asciilifeform: it WILL have variant semantics.
asciilifeform: and unquantifiably so.

ben_vulpes: yup, i see now
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: same as in any other proggy
phf: fwiw patch format is super promisetronic. it's something along the lines of "command that was used to produce the hunks\nhunks..."
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: semantics is , more or less, what the proggy ~is~
asciilifeform: different semantics - different proggy. with different behaviour . different outputs for same inputs. etc
asciilifeform: phf: it is a terrible format and is not to remain.
asciilifeform: as soon as there is a viable replacement.
phf: so if you diff is called "gdiff" or whatever (because you're on bsd) it's entirely legal for it to say gdiff -ruN a b
phf: in the "command that was used..." line
asciilifeform: (which, if it is left up to me, will look like teco macros. so if anyone does not like this shape, had better come up with another.)
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: pedantically, each patch then produces semantically new program?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: not each (nixing the win32 #ifdefs did not, for so long as nobody is dumb enough to try to build for win32)
asciilifeform: but some -- did. the orphanage removals certainly did.
asciilifeform: ditto 'malleus'.
asciilifeform: the important thing to observe , in each case, is whether it changed semantics in a way that can be ~understood~
asciilifeform: in the case of the orphanages, they had 0 constructive purpose. they were like the 'death glands' on that one species of octopus. snip'em and you get octopus that lives for +2 yrs and no other effect.
phf: asciilifeform: you know you could've gone with diff -e instead, in which case almost exactly "like teco macros"
asciilifeform: phf: does it needleman-wunsch ?
asciilifeform: stock gnudiff is brain-meltingly dumb re minimality of diffage.
phf: well, in the simplest case (i.e. if you're using gnudiff) you're still just going to get the diff's take on "delete this line, add this line", but the ~format~ would be an ed script out of the box, so can have pretty complex transforms
asciilifeform: phf: diff -e has own serious problems (it 'enmagics' the '.' character, for instance.)
asciilifeform: NO MOTHERFUCKING INBAND MAGICS
asciilifeform: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/3NXcp/?raw=true << what FUCKGOATS release would have looked like, in that mode.
asciilifeform: (i did not have any lines beginning with '.', so i have nfi what the escape would have looked like. but there WOULD be one.)
phf: there's no "escape" as such. instead it generates an adhoc escape (say replace dot with ZZ or whatever) and then patches that one line using s///.
asciilifeform: phf: 'ed-style' diff outputs are the Right Thing, but done the ~proper~ way, with NO INBAND MAGIC, and not the monkey way.
phf: well, that's not inband magic! still "ick"
asciilifeform: it's magic
asciilifeform: if there's a forbidden char or string --- that is called magic.
asciilifeform: the alternative, the correct one, is 'next N bytes are payload'.
asciilifeform: and THEY CAN BE ANY OCTET
asciilifeform: the '.' operator in 'diff -e' is the magic.
phf: it's \n.\n
asciilifeform: one can debate whether the persians are right to cut hands off thieves. but the hands of folx who write programs like this, i cannot see any reason why they should stay attached.
asciilifeform: phf: USES nonprintables in the magic ?! even deeper retardation.
asciilifeform 'can't even', takes break, off to play with 10kg joystick, and then with pet
phf: newline is not a non-printable
phf: ffs, i resent being placed in a position of defending something that i'm not responsible nor care for. diff -e would've been closer to "teco macros", but it's the "sane teco macros" we're talking about here, etc. etc. etc.

trinque: gotta finish writing the thing that triggers granular (per-nick) updates, leaning on a full rebuild for now.
trinque: ben_vulpes and I had an interesting conversation yesterday about how to handle static sites generated from a db. idea we ended up with was that we'd have triggers which emit a pg_notify signal when the "dirty bit" has flipped for any page.
trinque: db operator has to go through and manually apply these triggers. for example, updates on either a "to" or "from" rating will require a rebuild of the nick pages in both directions.
ben_vulpes: i am very much a fan of this design
asciilifeform: trinque: why would you generate the site from a db? more than once, i mean
ben_vulpes: please to never have code near an httptron
asciilifeform: why have 2 representations of same thing on disk ?
trinque: there's a listening process consuming these pg_notify events, of the form (gen-nick-page "trinque") which debounces them according to some sane interval, i.e. if a few updates hit the same user in a short span, it will result in one single rebuild
trinque: asciilifeform: because people update their ratings
asciilifeform: so update the html?
trinque: ben_vulpes: and yes, app code needn't be anywhere near www
trinque: asciilifeform: that is precisely what I just said
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: exactly :D
asciilifeform: yes but why have the sql db then
trinque: wtf
asciilifeform: anywhere
trinque: this model has nothing to do with sql
trinque: and everything to do with shitty html flowing from properly structured data
asciilifeform: the mention of pg_notify
ben_vulpes: trinque: just sed and awk the html you have in place to update ratings
trinque: oh ok
asciilifeform: hence i ask 'why have 2'
trinque: I am not using html as a data storage format what the hell
trinque: lol
ben_vulpes: no it's fine
ben_vulpes: deduplication
ben_vulpes: parsing html isn't even hard
trinque: asciilifeform: the question answered here is "why regenerate the same idiot HTML every www request?"
trinque: and the answer is don't
asciilifeform: i've seriously considered reimplementing phuctor in this shape. as it is, it loses more from the slow writes idiotically queuing up, and the wedged reads that result, than it wins from fast structured queries.
ben_vulpes: "this shape" being selective html regeneration? or mutation in place?
trinque: wot.deedbot.org will likely result in two genesis patches down the line. one for the tool, other for the particular site
trinque: if asciilifeform should ever want it
asciilifeform: ~displaying a www page~ oughta be an O(1) op, really
asciilifeform: in ~all~ cases.
asciilifeform: trinque: mircea_popescu will probably barf if the 2 genesisen get displayed on same screen. it isn't an eggog in vtronics, but is in his head.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: 'this shape' being 'html as-seen-by-reader as the only storage format'
asciilifeform: i've developed a loathing, inexpressible in words, for postgres and all things like it
trinque: I am not moving from it until I have another database in hand
asciilifeform: why the FUCK should a READ block because ~wholly unrelated datum is being written~
asciilifeform: and why the FUCK is 10,000 writes/sec 'too much'
asciilifeform: is it 1971? am i on a drum disk?
trinque: yeah yeah. /dev/null is even faster
trinque: but the right answer is as much or as little structure enforcement as you like.
asciilifeform: my fs can eat GB/s r/w without breaking a sweat
trinque: this is not the direction from which to come at this subject
trinque: conflated in "database" is both a user interface and a programming environment
asciilifeform: elaborate?
trinque: as the shell is a user interface, in the first case
trinque: recall I conceded in the bitcoinfs thread that what I consider to be "database" is actually many orthogonal tools related to data manipulation, atomicity of operations, adherence to type constraints ~if desired~
trinque: ^ programming environment
asciilifeform: all of the orthogonal tools must be mercilessly cut apart, yes.
asciilifeform: but so must orthogonal ~operations~. under nk circumstances is blocking on UNRELATED op, tolerablr
asciilifeform: tolerable
asciilifeform: it is monumentally retarded, as a mere possibility in a system
trinque: that sounds like a bug, really, but the kind of bug the complexity of the thing makes hard to remove
asciilifeform: imagine your cock didn't work if 10,000 others in town were in use.
mircea_popescu: trinque i think that's how pretty much everyone ends up doing things.
trinque: mircea_popescu: ah you know what, excluding nicks with no ratings breaks this, because writing the keyfile happens inside that logic.
trinque: I'll instead write the page and exclude from the index

asciilifeform: how much of 'what trinque wants here' is unobtainable by simply abusing the fs ?
