davout: after reading #chainstate my conclusion is that mircea_popescu would enjoy ruby very much!
trinque: o lawd
mircea_popescu: lol and whyssat davout ?
davout: string manipulation just seemed very painful
mircea_popescu: well, a large part of the problem is that strings aren't something.
mircea_popescu: ie, the veterans' objections couldn't be dismissed.
davout: yeah, of course
mircea_popescu: on which basis i enjoy ruby a lot less.
davout: the point is simply that it bundles a good bit of convenience
davout: which may or may not be a good thing depending on the particular point of view
davout: either way, the repl looks pretty nifty
mircea_popescu: the objection is that it bundles incorrect convenience, which is NEVER a good thing. link here to http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-09#1599790

davout: what distinguishes correct from incorrect convenience ?
mircea_popescu: anyway, i quite enjoyed flailing for definitions once i realised what the problem was (you can tell i move to arrays at some point in a desperate bid etc)
mircea_popescu: davout something (convenience, anything else) is correct if it scales, which is to say is derived from the prime mover. anything else - incorrect.
mircea_popescu: sinful is also a proper attribute of incorrectness, because it is literally a headless spawn of the very devil.
davout: not sure i really get what you mean by "it scales"
davout: if you bundle lots of shit, it quickly becomes unmanageable
davout: because all abstractions and conveniences have a cost
mircea_popescu: not so. i can go from everything i do in an infinite string of correct whys to prime logic. broken shit can't do that.
davout: what's "prime mover" in this context?
mircea_popescu: possibly your idea of "scales" is tainted by the idiots, "to scale means to be used by a larger cattle headcount". that has nothing to do. to scale means to go up the abstraction tree. an apple is a correct apple if it scales, ie, if the concept of apple follows from it.
mircea_popescu: literally the aristotelian imperative. the first thing to have moved.
davout: it's still not very clear to me how the ability to manipulate string a bit more easily is equivalent to heresy
davout: would the same functionality, included in cl's standard be deemed heretic?
mircea_popescu: "it's not clear to me how the ability to manipulate something you can'd define is equivalent to http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-16#1583902 "

mircea_popescu: yes but now define ruby's notion of substr
asciilifeform: davout: cl chars ain't bytes
mircea_popescu: see the whole point of "string" as a concept (and from it, as a type) is based on a fundamental ambiguity. now it's this, now it's that.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform that's an anti-helpful objection.
asciilifeform: davout: nor null-termed, nor contiguous in memory
davout: mircea_popescu: i'm afraid i don't see that particular ambiguity
mircea_popescu: i know. i hadn't seen it until yesterday either.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it is in fact useful to remember that the 'convenience' of cstring is == to the 'convenience' of shitting on the floor where you stand

asciilifeform: tru
davout: mircea_popescu: #chainstate ref plox?
Framedragger: inb4 cross-channel reference and search system!!
mircea_popescu: there's two points. one, where i saw it at the periphery and feared it may be a thing, which made me pretty pissy : http://logs.bvulpes.com/chainstate?d=2017-1-11#1340 and then http://logs.bvulpes.com/chainstate?d=2017-1-11#1374 as the issue was structuring in my head. then of course the closing comments early today morning, http://logs.bvulpes.com/chainstate?d=2017-1-12#323 as the thing couldn't actually be dismissed.
mircea_popescu: if you look through the log it's pretty evident alf understands exactly what the problem is, in spite of his deeply boneheaded, inept self-expression. which sadly makes it evident only retrospectively.
mircea_popescu: then again how to speak truth to clueless is a quite open problem in the first place.
mircea_popescu: but that's why he speaks of socialism and getting for free and etc.
davout: asciilifeform: the reason some of the string primitives aren't included, e.g. "substring" is that they're O(n)? In other words, that the convenience comes at the cost of incentivizing operator idiocy?
mircea_popescu: vice-versa : they have to cost that, because they're stuck papering over the fact that the operator has no idea what he wants.
asciilifeform: well, for starters, much worse than O(n)
asciilifeform: but mircea_popescu nails it.
mircea_popescu: the computer doesn't in the slightest mind running in a for loop from now until the heat-end of history. however, it would humbly request you actually write its death sentence deliberately rather than by uncomprehended accidenty.
mircea_popescu: which is altogether not an unreasonable bar for all slavery.
asciilifeform: this is main reason why haskell and other 'lazy eval' systems are malignant
asciilifeform: they create 'secret talmud' of workable ops, that are not visually distinct from intractable ones
mircea_popescu: mistreating the slaves is the ruin of the house.
davout: right.
mircea_popescu: don't tell me all this nonsense now makes sense to you ?
davout: i see your point mucho better
mircea_popescu: well then.
davout: not sure what asciilifeform means in his last comment
asciilifeform: which, davout ?
davout: mircea_popescu: i see the point in general, but i'm not sure i'd take it as far as considering some additional string primitives as being evil
a111: Logged on 2017-01-12 14:09 asciilifeform: they create 'secret talmud' of workable ops, that are not visually distinct from intractable ones
mircea_popescu: well, entirely depends on your definition of evil, but the point remains they're not helping you, they're just smothering you.
mircea_popescu: aka "you can get some version of what you possibly wanted done very easy at the cost of understanding what you actually wanted or what the hell's the differece."
asciilifeform: davout: in some programming systems, it is very easy to inadvertently ask the machine to solve an np-hard problem. and for 0 good reason, other than that making such a language stroked academitard cocks
mircea_popescu: cue ballas with his "there's a difference between what you need and what you want, and the media will relentlessly give you strings"
davout: asciilifeform: ic
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it's very symbolically imperial, also. the language of "rights" and "rule of law" makes it trival to start a "war on drugs" or "women against rape". then the state ends and everyone is at a loss why the fuck it did.
asciilifeform: in other languages, e.g., python, ruby, there is a lesser sin, you end up stuffing multitude of O(n) ops in places where you oughta have O(1), O(n^2) ops where with some thought you could've had O(n), etc. and the braindamage adds up
davout: mircea_popescu: yea, i guess the question is where you stop. at which point do you decide that you're going to buy these apples instead of growing them, because ultimately you want an apple pie
davout: asciilifeform: yes
mircea_popescu: davout no, not really, because i buy ~apples~. your question would be "at which point you stop buying canned frozen fruit tm for your apple pie". anyone may give his own answer, but in my case it's long, long ago.
mircea_popescu: and yes i plant my own lovage, in buenos aires, because the plant doesn't exist and "soup condiment mix" doesn't satisfy.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform yes.
asciilifeform: if you can find ~any~ collision, the hash is broken.
mircea_popescu: well, it's not collision resistant, yes.
asciilifeform: so quite useless.
asciilifeform: you gotta have collision resistance, for almost any practical application.
asciilifeform: otherwise it reduces to a fancy crc32.
asciilifeform: (consider one especially disastrous meltdown: in the merkle tree variant of lamport's signature scheme, you are hashing over RNG output. so if ANY collision whatsoever can be found, the enemy can forge signatures at will.)

mircea_popescu: they're not terribly expensive, if you have an automated process can get 10-20 up at all times with a lifetime no longer than 2-4 weeks for less than 1btc/year. experimentally that's the lower margin of enough.
mircea_popescu: from ancient tomes : "organizarea actuala a Serviciului Statisticei Demografice, destinata a fi una din realizarile cele mai perfectionate existente in prezent, s'a putu face in primul rind datorita concursului acordat de catre Fundatiunea Americana Rockefeller, care, prin conventiunea incheiata cu Ministerul Sanatatii, asigura timp the patru ani insemnate fonduri banesti, pina la un procent de 44.39% din totalul fondului de
mircea_popescu: cheltuieli, precum si un ajutor tehnic nepretuit."
mircea_popescu: tl;dr : romanian census 1930 was mostly paid for by the soros foundation of 1930.
mircea_popescu: this included 7 automated punchcard machines, 11 calculators etc.
pete_dushenski: speaking of romanian bits, thanks to the latest trilema, http://trilema.com/2010/doua-fete-argumentul-economic/ and http://trilema.com/2011/jaful-si-economia/ could use translating imo
Framedragger: !$ ssh 79.98.25.182 8.8.8.8 79.98.25.200
Framedragger: (scheisse)
mircea_popescu: i cant believe i've not translated the two girls one ?!
pete_dushenski: ikr
pete_dushenski: if you have, it doesn't have a trackback at least
mircea_popescu: the 2nd one has a proper source, maybe just read the original ? it's a for-romanian-tards discussion of an english piece

mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes he's not a lord yet, dun have a castle, what can he do
ben_vulpes: i regard this vast wasteland of unclaimed irc channels
ben_vulpes: and can only ask myself
ben_vulpes: why
ben_vulpes: here
mircea_popescu: should be a comicv
Framedragger: ^ alright, worx. may not be too terribly useful, but it uses a new l33t backend provided by siphnos.mkj.lt, to be documented later
ben_vulpes: Framedragger: does it run on oleg?
phf: lords of tmsr should have proper attire. something by moebius http://68.media.tumblr.com/2a9f398560cec9d0ddf753a440fafe4f/tumblr_ojakw6ghIS1sndzdgo1_500.jpg
Framedragger: any particular oleg in mind?
ben_vulpes: olegdb!
Framedragger: oleg of novgorod?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: one more for your list :) http://trilema.com/2012/succesiunea-civilizatiilor-in-concretetea-lor-materiala/

pete_dushenski: oleganza!
mircea_popescu: phf to quote from a film i don't recall, "niente coveri, solo corpi di tinere donne"
Framedragger: amazing. (nah uses proper postgres!!11)
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: fuck that guy, he left the only usable visual git client for os x to rot without releasing the source.
Framedragger: select count(1) from siphnos_scan1 ;
Framedragger: count
Framedragger: ----------

ben_vulpes: Framedragger: are you sure you shouldn't be using olegdb?
Framedragger: pete_dushenski: could you update bots page? `/msg scriba help` is up to date nao
Framedragger: ben_vulpes: i'll transition when i am ready for web scale!!
phf: mircea_popescu: that'll require translation
mircea_popescu: i dunno, some bit about how the chinese emperors din't have covers on their beds, slept covered in women
phf: ha
mircea_popescu: (anyone who tried this knows it's entirely impractical)
pete_dushenski: "Trilema hurt my head on-and-off for Nearly a year.Then it hit me like a ton of bricks-shit." << what chrome thinks my en quote would sound like if it were ro then converted back to en.
Framedragger: > Are you guys CS 100 students?
Framedragger: > We were. Never really made it past that.
mircea_popescu: lol wut ?
mircea_popescu: ehehe
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: ya no love lost for oleganza anymore. had some fun chatting and dining with him a few years back but he's still not here so not much hope for him really.
ben_vulpes: "a database for when persistence means turning fsync on"
pete_dushenski: Framedragger: on it :)
Framedragger: many thanks :)
ben_vulpes: i am going to raise my hand and ask a stupid question
ben_vulpes: Framedragger: why did count(1) not return 1?
Framedragger: count() takes "what to return for *every* matching row", basically. "1" is also a thing to return, so it returns >15m of "1"s
ben_vulpes: ah
ben_vulpes: the really funny thing is that i ran a similar query against a table with one row
Framedragger: ahh..yeah it's super unintuitive, i think
ben_vulpes: eh, if i'd done it against a table with two rows it'd have made sense immediately.
pete_dushenski: Framedragger: gtg!
Framedragger: pete_dushenski: ah thanks very much, there's another newly documented command `getarchive` in there, could you include that too, please? :) (no hurries tho, it's not like they're super essential anyway heh)
phf: ben_vulpes: it's a silly convention, because count(anything) would've returned the row count. select count(42) from foo would've returned the same result
ben_vulpes: count(first)
mircea_popescu: people generally do count(*) or such
ben_vulpes: i am now more completely aware of the question's stupidity, thank you all.
pete_dushenski: Framedragger: no worries, it's updated.
jhvh1: pete_dushenski: It's not just you. danielpbarron.com/ appears to be down.
scriba: Previously archived URL: http://archive.is/BYTAJ (this was archived by scriba: yes)
ben_vulpes: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ciagov/9779277632/ << a baby hillary!
ben_vulpes: heh and a case could be made for bill's dong making an appearnace as well
pete_dushenski has updated eulora ubuntu wiki with danielpbarron's archived site now that foxybot is part of the stock downloaded package
pete_dushenski learned about wiki hyperlinking in the process. it's... different.
mircea_popescu: cool deal.
asciilifeform caught up.
pete_dushenski: in other other strange that should've died two decades ago but lives, anyone missing their old apple 'portable' now has a latter day option : https://www.cnet.com/products/acer-predator-21x/preview/

pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: i swim in dark waters
pete_dushenski: lotsa "new" shit
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i just built a heathentron box with very similar specs, for roughly 1/4 the cost
asciilifeform: (and of very similar physical volume and mass.)
asciilifeform: 10k usd for lappy is bizzarroworld.
asciilifeform: (unless the year is 1995 and it's a 'tadpole sparcbook' etc)
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: i am on my own perversely enjoyable swim through the filth atm
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: and how much time did it take you ? how much of your incomparable expertise did it require ? if little, and you made laptop not desktop, you win.
ben_vulpes: "thirty minutes and ten years"
pete_dushenski: ^^
pete_dushenski: "why is this root canal $1000??!"
ben_vulpes: well no that is bullshit
ben_vulpes: "friends with benefits" ifyaknowhaddayemean
pete_dushenski: lol! ok, let's hear it. why is it bullshit ? because you know an indian guy who will do it in the back of his dirty van ?
ben_vulpes: father in law
ben_vulpes: but close
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: wtf, didn't make laptop, no
ben_vulpes: but wtf who isn't 2 jumps away from a dentist
asciilifeform: ended up with a thing ~= the size of a breadbox.
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: heh. my father in law too. girl idem ;)
pete_dushenski: but that still leaves a lotta jews w/o blogs who have no dentist in the fam!
asciilifeform: ~ 35 x 25 x 20 cm.
ben_vulpes: ya fuck 'em, get in the wot
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: and it took a coupla hours.
asciilifeform: as it always does.
asciilifeform: pretty unremarkable build.
pete_dushenski: for the ignorant, what is remarkable build ? lispmachine on iphone ?
asciilifeform: and srsly, pete_dushenski never had to build pc?!
pete_dushenski: or on vtech lappy ?
asciilifeform: where was he in the 90s
pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: wasn't the question. care to answer it ?
asciilifeform: which q. i'm trying to work in order here
pete_dushenski: you set the bar here, not me. i'm genuinely curious what alfatronic 'remarkable build' looks like.
asciilifeform: 'remarkable build' for pc would be, say, water cooling thing made from toyota. ( asciilifeform had this nonsense as a student. )
pete_dushenski: lolk just needed that point of reference. ty.
asciilifeform: at any rate it is about as much of an intellectual exercise as building chair from 'ikea' etc.
ben_vulpes: haha
asciilifeform: you buy the boards, the tin, etc. and they snap together in exactly 1 way.
asciilifeform: the model airplane you glued when you were 5, was harder.
mircea_popescu: wtf are you discussing.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski posted link to $10k x86 lappy. and asciilifeform remarked that it is similar box to what he built for nowhere close to 10k usd.
asciilifeform: file under the 'laptops suck' thread.
mircea_popescu: aite
ben_vulpes: https://igoradamenko.github.io/awsm.css/elements.html "div isn't styled because it doesn't have semantic value" << i like this attitude
mircea_popescu: so i tried to watch naked (2013). the most i can say is that the atrocity is a fine explanation of why there isn't such a thing as english philosophy.

asciilifeform: i.e. dulap will occasionally drop zoolag! and there is currently nothing i can do to force it not to
asciilifeform: (and vice-versa)
mircea_popescu: eatblock
mircea_popescu: anyway, the point is mostly block timing / discovery. you can compare when various anon nodes see blocks to evaluate both the network and any hostile activity.
asciilifeform: nifty idea overall.
