dorion: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-24#1957161 - I see. perhaps writing some articles about the process on your blog would mitigate the downs and amplify the ups ?
dorion: Panama does have a more old school, meet in person culture, so we see face to face still as a good option for building long-term relationships, e.g. makes going for a drink after class that much easier, but cutting the number in half rather than the full 25.
dorion: On top of that we plan to move IRC from around session 20, where it was with the first batch, to somewhere between sessions 5-10 and make that the primary, or ideally only, communication channel.
dorion: One middleground we've looked at pivoting to is using a server with tmux session sharing combined with a voice or video call. That will provide a "classroom" experience for both instructor and student from the comfort/convenience of the home office.
dorion: With that being said, physical presence limits us, both from clients we can work with and, as we grow, instructors we can onboard, e.g. spyked.
dorion: We build them up from an environment they're used to, but also heavily stress practice of the commands and text editor.
dorion: The lectures and course materials - we provide both digital and hard copy resources - were built around this structure. We've provided hard copies of lectures/in class exerices and homework, in part because they've typically never used a text editor (though vimtutor is part of the early homework) and pencil and paper brings them back to a more familiar learning modality.
dorion: At the start, basics like remembering where spaces go in command syntax and the difference between slashes and dashes can trip them up. Thus, sitting next to them a) gives them some assurance, b) allows the instructor's feedback loop to be shortened because he sees exactly where the mistake is being made and c) makes keeping the sessions within 90 minutes more feasible.
dorion: To provide context, the main reason we started with this is because Gales as an environment is pure text, so the command line must be used. For the most part, the people we're prospecting don't have command line experience.
dorion: mircea_popescu I hope I've not waited too long, but I'm ready to ask you about the face to face structure jfw and I started with for jwrd.
mod6: The howto document now requires that you have Ada on your environment before you build, and the builder will also need to build starter_v_2 first, before any other steps are to be completed.
mod6: mircea_popescu: Ok, I have published my trb keccak regrind on the bitcoin.foundation site. It comes with the following: 1. Update to original genesis.vpatch - removes the UTF charater. 2. Added mod6_privkey_tools.vpatch (unchanged fro the original ML posting by myself.) 3. A manifest file. 4. I've also updated the howto document on thebitcoin.foundation.
mircea_popescu: "waiting to fo into keccak". there's no fucking waiting. do it, do it now, and stop with the infantile bullshit. the republic isn't optional, nor is it trying to persuade the infant in you.
mircea_popescu: but it's a fact : stop trying to put yourself in the way, it will not stop anything and it will fuck you iup.
mircea_popescu: no fucking clue why your ferrocraneum manages to conceal from you the plain obviousness of this ; no fucking idea what you make of all the other mangled bodies of like idiots scattered about, nor of the actual pain you feel and have been feeling.
mircea_popescu: stop putting yourself in the way of progress, the only thing you'll get out of it is your own mangled body.
mircea_popescu: mod6, why are you looking for a lord to "doubleckeck your work" ~outside~ of the process through which this is done here ?
mod6: thx, for denoting the offline component in scheme.
ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-24 00:20:48 mod6: I am also aware of the wallet work that has been on-going in python by gbw. Maybe this gets folded into that?
dorion: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-24#1957153 - the online component is in python, the offline component is in Scheme.
mod6: Upon resoltion of the privkey_tools question, will happily add it to the current archive of signed Keccak TRB Vptaches.
mod6: Also, mircea_popescu, I do have the the entire trb tree (with exception of privkey_tools) signed and ready to go in Keccak. Has been since last January. I havne't been able to find a Lord who will double check my work though.
mod6: I am also aware of the wallet work that has been on-going in python by gbw. Maybe this gets folded into that?
mod6: Anyway, I'm open to another discussion around the privkey tools vpatch. For what it's worth, I think TRB sorely needs it. But again, the whole discussion about the wallet.
snsabot: Logged on 2017-10-13 11:32:29 trinque: the introduction of new classes should be perma-banned
mod6: There was also the entire question of not putting it in, as it was discussed that the wallet should be cleaved from the rest of the architecture itself -- and further work on wallet related things should wait.
mod6: billymg: Hi, it wasn't included because there was an objection (i'll have to dig the logs for it) to it being included (trinque) because it includes a class that was deemed unnecessary.
billymg: i was looking through the logs trying to find a reason why it wasn't included in the main release but couldn't find an answer. are there any caveats/things i should watch out for?
billymg: mod6: been doing some testing with your privkey_tools patch and afaict everything's working as it should. i applied it manually after pressing the trb stable tree

mircea_popescu: in other smoldering failures of the female state, the internet contains loads of crap periphrastically related to james lawson's "the dapper gentleman's story", except the item itself.
mircea_popescu: almost close enough to lend credence to the theory whereby "modern democracy" is just bald faced freedom=slavery label misdirection.
mircea_popescu: i think you should be the judge of that ; not because i suspect you're either good at it or have any experience with it worth the mention -- but exactly for the forestated reasons :)
billymg: good points. she will certainly have several jobs once we land (running the b&b for one) but in the meantime a lot of this stuff will just get done faster/better if i do it myself
mircea_popescu: mitigating circumstances can be applied to lighten punishment for failure, but what's the point of applying them before the test, or to eschew the test ? life's not different by virtue of mental fiction. that's what has to be done, that's what has to be done.
mircea_popescu: AFTER which you can of course forgive & even forget, on the grounds of "well, she was young". but ~AFTER~.
billymg: her only "education" to this point has been the usg school/college system, which i'm constantly working to undo
billymg: the pet will be joining on that trip, yes. but she still needs quite a bit of training before she can be sent on a mission like that on her own (she's at the early end of her 20s)
mircea_popescu: yet ironically, instead of being the very lubricant of movement, "oh, its very easy for me to go to a new place, i got a whole retinue of women", moronworld works EXACTLY the opposite, "oh, for all these dumb cunts around i can't go anywhere".

ossabot: Logged on 2016-11-10 10:38:43 mircea_popescu: look at it from the historical perspective : music was invented in babylon to quell the wail ; because the males there had the wisdom to kill the boys - for "no reason" but did it. then the jews came along and put it in their book to not do sacrifice children - and so the dumb women flocked to them, and they birefly prevailed. only to go to shit in a handbasket soon thereafter, so much so the fucking short-legg
mircea_popescu: "before the jews came along", it was that.
mircea_popescu: recall the discussion of how music was invented ?
mircea_popescu: so while it's not surprising that america meanwhile became the land of the landwhales, we knew it was going to fail the moment it wasn't the land of the poor blameless helpless damsels chained naked to poles to die there of neglect and exposure.
mircea_popescu: compared to this, catering to the female hunger for calories is a minor loss.
mircea_popescu: pretty much the ~worst~ trait of any society is the satisfaction of the female hunger for safety. it's both morally wrong and ethically exactly opposite of the correct stance.
mircea_popescu: thus they all went into gambling.
mircea_popescu: and soon enough farming became an economically impossible activity, because a land will only produce what it produces, and its silver value will only be what it is, whereas passage of time and accumulation of these benefits is a monotonously growing function
mircea_popescu: this, for being squarely against the law not to mention devoid of any possible legal substance (how the fuck's the titleholder to dispose of goods past his deat h?!) nevertheless got enforced
mircea_popescu: instead of "bitch, if i die you're a beggar, make sure i very well fucking don't", it was a "and after i die you get so and so silver each harvest out of your son owning the lands"
mircea_popescu: but that didn't matter. what sunk it was the habit of imbecile peers to create allotments for the support of their wives out of the inheritance.
mircea_popescu: then, of course, the crown moved to lesser heads, and they became by degrees hostile
mircea_popescu: the crown ~of the period~ understood enough to at least get out of the way (really, they helped in minor senses)
mircea_popescu: the mankind sheepherd.
mircea_popescu: originally, the better cut of humanity came up with a rule whereby one son of a family inherits the title, and is a peer ; everyone else -- falls back into the indistinct swamp of commons
mircea_popescu: this, incidentally, is what ruined the medieval age, too.
hanbot_abroad: mircea_popescu that obnoxious interloper character that won't stop projecting herself onto the old dude? yeah
mircea_popescu: wasn't the workers, it was... hey, do you remember the annoying woman in the pawnbroker ?
mircea_popescu: otherwise they end up with ideas such as me being both cool and human says something about ~them~.
mircea_popescu: these must be a) drafted into "military service" consisting of digging ditches in the mud for a year ; and then whipped regularly for recall.
mircea_popescu: "The originators of the Robber Baron concept were not the injured, the poor, the faddists, the jealous, or a dispossessed elite, but rather a frustrated group of observers led at last by protracted years of harsh depression to believe that the American dream of abundant prosperity for all was a hopeless myth." << this set, the horseface whatshername followers.

whaack: lobbes: the reason for the above behavior is as follows: the start string "yesterday" gets matched. so yesterday becomes "<span style="background-color:#d3d3d3" id="select">yesterday" But there is no match for "Because we were talking". So trilema serves a <span> tag that does not properly close. The way most browsers handle this is to put an implicit </span> before the </p>
lobbes: Although, it looks like in some cases it will default to selecting the end of the paragraph when done across tag boundaries

mircea_popescu: because that's why i do these sorts of things, so a few years later i can discover hurr durr etcetera. i might as well link fucking pantsuit sites, they purge their linkstructure every four years also.
mircea_popescu: so i'm about to quote http://trilema.com/2015/no-such-labs-releases-v-for-victory/ in a discussion with billymg ; except i discover the fucking http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-August/000151.html link is meanwhile broken.

mircea_popescu: should end up paying 45 out of 123. for some reason known to you only, you managed to insulate your client from that outcome however. maybe time to review cerebral impactions getting in the way of living ?)
mircea_popescu: (other than the formatting point above, i will further mutter in sottovoce that my first reaction, driven WEEKS AGO by what i had originally heard off the grapevine, was along the lines of "oh, i remember now who mike_c is, he's this character you can't stay angry with, try as you might", and offering to add half your fee to the pot, because while it's not the case patron shouldn't make money, it's also not the case client
BingoBoingo will 1 deed per item in the future
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Aite, I'll inform the client.
mircea_popescu: i will want a full release ready to go concomitantly, so if your client isn't liable to be around then maybe deed it prior.
mircea_popescu: the header format's going away anyways.
mircea_popescu: The GPG we inherited fucks clearsigned text blocks inside a larger text block being clearsigned as it is clearsigned for reasons that appear to be related to retardation. << well theoretically it's related to in-band signalling, but practically it was too hard to have a proper parser, take CLOSING signature as the signature, had to have 1step parser which "does not know what to do" if it encounters five dashes mid-documen
mircea_popescu: alright, so i can say that indeed 123.29494813 BTC is a legit claim as per all the foregoing discussion.
mircea_popescu brb fucking with editors now. in the future plox, for the love of all that's holy -- one deed per signed item.
ossabot: Logged on 2020-01-13 14:59:07 BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Now that the deeds have gone through how would you like to move forward?
mircea_popescu: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-13#1956846 << awww man, why the fuck did you bundle all these together ? so it's really REALLY hard to go through them, have to edit files by hand to cut in pieces, can't use automated processes etc ? nuts.
dorion: heya trinque , did you ever say hi to, rod smith, the rEFInd fellow ? I'd be glad to take that up, but don't wanna innundate the dood if you already did or want to.
BingoBoingo: The MPEx stat without the measures GPG takes to fuck clearsigned inside clearsigned is also available here
ossabot: Logged on 2019-12-23 11:55:42 mp_en_viaje: do that ; add to it a plain statement of your involvement, and we can take it from there.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Now that the deeds have gone through how would you like to move forward?
trinque: ah bother.
trinque: seems like we're not far apart at all in our views on these things.
trinque: also good to know that gcc >4.7.4 incurs a c++ compiler in the bootstrap process. way, way better to have reasons for where we stop than "eh, I got tired and sat down here"
trinque: will process all these comments and reply soon, after the next article is posted, but I'm glad to hear that these have been valuable.
mircea_popescu: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-12#1956798 << just the simple string "lts" makes my skin crawl
mircea_popescu: it's not clear to me how i'd actually go about computing the value-add of supporting whatever config isn't self-supporting ; but it seems indisputable it's under the cost of five second's labour. making the matter not even work considering, let alone discussing.
mircea_popescu: skip trying to buy a coupla shots for whatever rando hobag at the club next time, get yourself a working peripheral [see all the hobags in history naked-er and working it more excitedly anyways].
mircea_popescu: but the cost to replace that is minimal, i mean... oh, so your video card doesn't work no mo ? awww, splurge on 50 bux, which as per latest j-lo self-promotion 1hr long advertisement incomprehensibly packaged as "a movie" ain't even enough to START the moneycount.
dorion: bvt wrt to newer hardware, did you see get a dozen or two alternatives, let the rest wither ?
bvt: porting rng to 2.6 kernel should indeed be not too hard, the only thing i may need adaptation is kfifo api (iirc it's api changed at some point, which may break the code)
bvt: mircea_popescu: moving to 2.6 kernel will be interesting experience wrt. newer hardware. 2.6.32 was one of the better-patched ones, could try to use that. otoh, the machine i am writing from requires 2.6.38 minimum for full hardware.
mircea_popescu: dorion, of course it's trivial, he doesn't use any of the pestilent doohickeys. he could port it to most 1series also.
dorion: mircea_popescu re seriousness, I know it'd be a helluva lot, but I don't imagine porting his work from 4.9.95 to 2.x isn't trivial either. I should've asked, comment how ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Qntra's "hold if comment contains X or more links" filter has been lifted to arbitrarily high number so these gems stop getting held in the moderation line.
mircea_popescu: between 2 and 4 the difference simply is "2 was a linux kernel, 4 is treasonable atrocity built atop 3, which is how you say '''mike hearn''' in linux"
mircea_popescu: between 2.4 and 2.6 the principal change is how kernel modules get loaded (they were actually linked pre 2.6).
mircea_popescu: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-12#1956783 << well, or at the very least comment on it.
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-17 12:42:50 ave1: I was genesing it, and will continue to do so. But with feedback in the loop. So, for example, gcc comes with an old STL html documentation tree, can this be dropped? (I would say yes)
ericbot: Logged on 2019-11-27 18:40:49 dorion_road: http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2019-11-17#1951499 << hey ave1, how goes ? has there been a delivery date set on this ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-12-09 16:35:17 dorion_road: http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/trilema/2019-11-27#1953688 << hey ave1, how goes ? have you been following along the tmsr os thread ? I've assumed you want to continue with your gcc work and own it, is that still the case ?
ossabot: Logged on 2019-11-17 12:40:02 ave1: As to ownership, I can own gcc 4.9 and would like to work with trinque et. al. on this. The problem here is limited time, so my primary input can be information/communication at this point.
dorion: ave1 do you actually want to own gcc ? or do we need to move on ? ~60 days silence, with unanswered intermittent probings seems to indicate the latter, unfortunately.
dorion: perhaps it's not an immediate priority, but I'd like to clarify the path forward.
dorion: trinque your blog appears to have stripped the html tags and links from my comment , here's the original http://paste.deedbot.org/?id=HL7P

mircea_popescu: yeah, speaking of which, hey Mocky what became of your site with all the mockybot stuff ?
trinque: mircea_popescu: haven't disappeared anywhere. next post requires more research to support the claims I'm making.
ossabot: (eulora) 2020-01-10 mircea_popescu: in the end, we painfully and i suppose expensively re-traced a point that was well (and very cheaply) established by 2016 : "The dispositive concern wasn't that the codebases selected are good ; rather it was that they are merely very, very, veryveryVERY dirty ; whereas the supposed cleanner substitutes aren't actually any

BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Well, no. I mean there's a flavor of spam email now that says "I've been watching you jack off through your computer's webcam. Pay X USD to Y BTC address" where the address has never been paid before, but its always one out of the same same handful of addresses.

BingoBoingo: Trump's answer might be "Well, maybe the biomass has to keep taking bombs in the ass until it turns into some harder shit?"

BingoBoingo: Or after 3 years of swamp he's plumbed the depths enough to decide the only way to cut the bureaucracy is by outsourcing the job to Iran.

BingoBoingo: Before I came to Uruguay I was somewhat inclined to that, but being here and seeing how the retards down here created their own Pantsuits... seems more like what follows from mass distribution of franchise. Mass culture develops, and it ain't much of a culture at all.
BingoBoingo: The few I've seen in the wild that notice this seem to mostly fall into the "Pop-culture was a KGB psyop" camp
mircea_popescu: "what if the scientists didn't give the bomb to the bureaucracy, but to the president ???" "oh it'd have been so SO very bad!! SUPERCRIMINALVILLAINS" "you mean, actual vir-ile, men ?" "YEAH!!!"
mircea_popescu: i wonder if anyone to date's noticed the entire hsitory of pop culture, 1950-onwards, all the comics / superheroes / etc fiction is entirely an attempt at retelling that history in the proper (ie, alternate) form from a pantsuit point of view
mircea_popescu: i suppose the alternative read counts from the manhattan project onwards, so it's only 70-odd years, one third the timespan. but neways.
mircea_popescu: anyway, this is the sad result two centuries worth of asciilifeformism have wrought. and apparently the imbecile "smart" kids are still not quite ready to wake up in any sort of numbers.
BingoBoingo: The impeachment thing from here reads pretty much strictly "Presidency as such dies for the bureaucracy"
mircea_popescu: yea, that pretty much sums up the current struggle, yeah.
mircea_popescu: i expect they similarily forgot he can literally do absolutely anything whatoever in the military, up to and including authoring drill manuals.
