phf: signpost: is your linux some kind of gentoo fork? is it basically a stripped down and vpatched version of ascii's old rk bundle?
    
    signpost: neither
    
    signpost: wrote my own build system which assumes one's dealing with vpatches, lifted some inspiration from gentoo.
    
    signpost: the reason I did this was to assemble the minimal set of packages that'd would be needed to boot a machine and build itself.
    
    phf: ah ok
    
    signpost: the scripts involved are pretty short. there's `pbuild` and various utils in a `scripts` subdir
    
    phf: does it have ada in the base? or you use your own vtools equivalent?
    
    signpost: yeah, has gnat-2016; that's your vtools plus bvt's patches
    
    signpost: using v.sh as the vtron, since it works fine atop busybox's shell
    
    phf: where can get vtree?
    
    signpost: I can get it uploaded for ya in the next few days, got guests atm.
    
    phf: no worries, in the next few days is when i will have time to poke at it anyway
    
    signpost: sg
    
    signpost: need to tweak the bootstrap process a bit, as the first version of the bootstrap scripts assume one gigantic genesis vpatch.
    
    signpost intends the thing to have multiple bootstrap scripts, and binary-reproducibility of outputs.
    
    signpost: oughta write up a state-of-pentacle thing soon. there's a lot intended in a pretty dense item.
    
    signpost bbl
    
    asciilifeform: meanwhile in misc. mail.
    
    verisimilitude: What happens on nosuchlabs if an entire day has no message; be the page generated still?
    
    asciilifeform: verisimilitude: current logotron skips empty pgs when flipping (tho you can still load it if direct link to date)
    
    verisimilitude: So the direct link would still cause it to be generated?
    
    asciilifeform: aha
    
    verisimilitude: Alright.
    
    asciilifeform: verisimilitude: see e.g. last coupla pgs of #t for example.

    verisimilitude: I'd enjoy seeing well-paying programming jobs that include terms such as ``If the software doesn't work, you shall be physically punished.'' and whatnot.
    
    verisimilitude: ``Gee, I can't use that library.  I don't want to be whipped again.''
    
    verisimilitude: The CEO will, of course, have an employee who would be whipped in his place.
    
    vex: what happened? someone working from home accidentially borked the trains?
    
    vex: might wanna look at .jp verisimilitude, presumably that's a seppuku
    
    asciilifeform: verisimilitude: theoretically even option of posting a bond (as e.g. plumbers do in civilized world) would be an improvement
    
    asciilifeform: ( tho not as glorious as 'seppukuware' )
    
    vex: even seppuku seems to be less fashionable now
    
    asciilifeform aims , if lives longenuff, to make ffa sumthing like seppukuware; or at least to level of 'find bug, get n btc'
