mp_en_viaje: and yes, i'm aware.
mp_en_viaje: i dunno how exactly you came up with some magic incantations that'll make it okay. however, to repeat this the 5th or so time : there is no magic ; it did not make it okay.

a111: Logged on 2019-07-24 01:44 asciilifeform might even be wrong, and it is conceivable that 'dhrystone of pentium166 but i/o of opteron' actually suffices to e.g. host blogs.

mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, don't feel too bad, this isn't "sad" just because not obviously useful ; it's glorious, because correct. id much rather read this than w/e, say yest's attempt at the claiming of sleeping beauty.
mp_en_viaje: (what happened was that 1. i was looking through search results for "daughter encounter", the why we'll not include as we can't regress this storytelling forever into endless past ; and then 2. ran into dude killed for being dude, which i suppose is kinda sad, but w/e, america rite ; and then 3. fell on "Take It For Daddy: A Rough an
mp_en_viaje: d Reluctant Bondage-Sex Encounter Between Stepdad and Daughter", The world’s greatest erotica writer, Kelly Leigh proudly presents "Take It For Daddy" – Incredibly hot sex stories featuring stepdaughters and their stepfathers!
mp_en_viaje: which 4. made me exclaim "what the fuck is wrong with these idiots, ~I~ am the world's greatest erotica writer, and by such a fat margin that if i were the mvp of the winning team, nobody else writing erotica would be even good enough to be accepted as last choice in one of the feeder clubs of the conference's weakest team.
mp_en_viaje: which in turn 5. provoked girly to mention anne rice, because whatever, as a virgin tween she got really hot and bothered over the princess getting sold by the prince to some merchants who stuffed her cunt fulla figs and such things.
mp_en_viaje: so she found me a copy, and 6. i proceeded to read. and i ran into bounty aplenty, such as :
mp_en_viaje: 6.a. "And approaching her, he gave a soft gasp as he touched her cheek, and her teeth through her parted lips, and then her tender rounded eyelids." sparked protest because ~everyone else~ is fucking decrepit and gaunt and dusted over in spider webs, so the disparity provokes in me the expectation a spider's jumping right out, antisexual 100%
mp_en_viaje: 6.b. "Her face was perfect to him" provoked protest because it's a cop out : the woman "kills two rabbits with one stone", by avoiding BOTH the work of describing her face, AND the work of explaining credibly why these two like each other. yet the job of the writer is 100% and precisely NOT to make this deal ; because if they make it, even once, then their story inescapably becomes "this is a good^H^H^H^Hgreat story'
mp_en_viaje: , five words like that.
mp_en_viaje: 6.c. "her embroidered gown had fallen deep into the crease between her legs so that he could see he shape of her sex beneath it" produced the protestation that this woman has never seen embroidery (or, i guess, never seen girls in work out pants without panties).
mp_en_viaje: 6.d. "Her ni**les were a rosy pink as were her lips, and the hair between her legs was darkly yellow and curlier than the long straight hair of her head, which covered her arms almost down to her hips on either side of her." actually killed the read, because 6.d.I. the rosy pink of the lips is NEVER THE SAME as the hue of the lips, this is 9yo coloring ; yet I have seen four digit young cunts and the two hues are alw
mp_en_viaje: ays eminently distinct
mp_en_viaje: 6.d.II. wtf is "darkly yellow" ; 6.d.III. wtf is "curlier than perfectly straight" ; 6.d.IV. you DO NOT wish to have her arms "covered in hair" ; then he proceeds to 6.d.V. "cut her sleeves" in the very next line, notwithstanding she was saying "arms" here, and well, i can not read this.
mp_en_viaje: this read mechanically failed ; i have no qualms with whoever managed to jack off to anne rice nevertheless -- but it is NOT good. even if it works for you.
mp_en_viaje: because "works for me" ain't the fucking criteria of goodness. mp being able to read through the thing, ie, CORRECTNESS, is the criteria of goodness.
mp_en_viaje: so there you go, i'd rather read you than A. N. Roquelaure ; and this isn't a rhetorical turn of phrase, it is literal description of actual historical occurrence.
mp_en_viaje: and no -- no apologies for log clutter ; this imo is the exact opposite of log clutter. this is because there are no spurious details included -- if it's long, it's because the point is intricate.

asciilifeform: the way i was gonna implement the nic, is to pipe packets via linux's 'tap/tun' into a slot in the 'm' mmio space (see bus.asm) and generate slave irq (see irq.asm) . if these arrive faster than the irq can be eaten, they simply get dropped.
asciilifeform: grr phf is it gonna take 2 months for the thing to be in btcbase.org/patches so i can link to it ?!
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-24#1924463 << on the actual iron, it happens in 1 clock cycle, cuz entirely parallel. in 'm', ends up iterating through all 16 tlb entries. i looked into using 'simd' instructions to do it, but they are ~artfully~ useless , ended up using the xmm regs strictly as fast temp storage;
a111: Logged on 2019-07-24 08:25 mp_en_viaje: is there no way to fix the lookup ?
asciilifeform: originally was at least gonna park the tlb ~in~ the xmm regs. but guesswat, there aint even a way, in 1 clock cycle, to get anything other than low 64bit out of'em !
asciilifeform: world's most retarded machine arch, the pc is.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-24#1924495 << for comparison, btw, 2m 23.2s for same 1000000000 runs on host box.

asciilifeform: if bellard were here, would prolly cackle.
mp_en_viaje: hey phf, did you disappear ?
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, artfully useless how ?
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: well, on my opteron, they're 128bit regs (on moar recent -- 256 and even 512!) but only the lower 64 is directly addressable. and gives buncha 'simd' ops, e.g. 'shuffles' where 'take erry 7th bit and add'em' etc. but looked and looked an' found nothing that'd correspond to table lookup
asciilifeform: kernel-mode coad btw bypasses the tlb, so runs with the expected ~40x slowdown.
asciilifeform: ( for n00bz / tlbism (aka mmu) is how os gives individual userland process the illusion of 'infinite memory, starting from addr 0', paging, etc )
asciilifeform: grr since can't link, will paste relevant piece.
asciilifeform: to add insult to injury, asciilifeform knows how to represent 'x bit lookup from x*k-bit string representing table' via arithmetic methods -- but! amd64 dun let you do full arithmetic on xmm either
asciilifeform: (i.e. cannot add/sub/mul or even shift entire xmm reg)
asciilifeform: in the beginning, thought i could at least implement the mips instruction operand decode using xmm. but ha! not that either.
asciilifeform: ( at least not on my opteron, on 2014+ theoretically could, but i dun buy those )
asciilifeform: best i could think of , was to arrange the mov.../and.../shr... etc so as to occupy the amd64 pipeline properly, in each inst. form.
asciilifeform: seems like there is only so much 'silk purse' that can be made from this particular sow's ear.
asciilifeform: in the actual instrs. per se (see 'mipsinst' dir.) , used conditional mov's wherever could think of how, so as to also keep pipeline full
asciilifeform: for thread-completeness, i'ma summarize how bellard et al did it
asciilifeform: they used 'dynamic recompile' method, where the sim simulates a kind of cache. when sim-instruction fetched, it looks whether found in this cache, and if not, emits a chunk of x86olade into said segment of cache, which corresponds to 'compiled' ver. of that instr.
asciilifeform: this then executes.
asciilifeform: and as it goes, tries to keep cache full, does equiv. of 'prefetch' (if this were a normal iron cache), etc
asciilifeform: all of this is 1) exceedingly gnarly , from 'fits in head' pov 2) requires a writable-and-executable memory segment. i.e. massive open wound.
asciilifeform: i.e. self-modifying proggy.
asciilifeform brb:teatime.

lobbes bbl $mines
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: thinking about it moar, i suspect that it is possible to bake a less screamingly retarded version of bellardism , where, e.g., the 'cache' is prefilled with unconditional jumps to the sim-instructions, eliminating the decode hit

a111: Logged on 2019-02-05 01:10 asciilifeform described, in the past, the general shape of the recipe for this -- you write e.g. small lisp in coupla kb of asm, and large 1 on that, and an adatron on the latter... etc

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: it aint as if there were no support for mips in the classic kernel tho. ( i only had to add 100ln or so specifically to bring up the simplified sim-devices )
asciilifeform: relatedly, i can't fathom why bellard et al decided to simulate gnarly existing physical irons , rather than patching kernel
asciilifeform: the latter is easily 100x less work
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Sure, but if we print a MIPS down the line sim-devices may be the way to do it instead of DMA everywhere

BingoBoingo: related to the incels doing erotica discussion: https://archive.is/NXNBC "As part of an ongoing military conflict, an attack against a USN carrier would not necessarily represent a legal challenge; aircraft carriers are weapons of war, after all, and they are just as vulnerable to attack as any other weapon. But as military theorists have pointed out for at least two centuries, states choose their levels of escalation very carefully.
BingoBoingo: Most wars are limited wars, and in limited wars, generals, admirals, and politicians are aware of the political import of the targets they select. Consequently, some targets remain off-limits for states that want to keep a war limited, even if those targets make a material contribution to the conduct of the conflict."
BingoBoingo: And they stooge writes this as though no one learned since 2003 that when the USG comes knocking you can't play into their escalation moderating game or a "Shock And Awe" happens
