wer: this okay?
mircea_popescu: mno, can't see your face.
wer: oh didn't know face was compulsory
mircea_popescu: well otherwise no way to enforce the "once per person"
mircea_popescu: why so shy, anwyay ?

mircea_popescu: wer so first off, register your pgp key with deedbot to preserve identity. you do have one yes ?
mircea_popescu: and second off, do the foxybot trade module. let me fish out the spec
mircea_popescu: with context too!
mircea_popescu: trinque it is said, as one could observe, that the entire grandiose complexity of nature was entirely built out of... crosspolination!
ben_vulpes: ftr i have nfi what kills the thing
trinque: fact. today's a bot haxing day anyway. other item in the queue is subcriptions
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes maybe it just needs a manager to restart it periodically if its down :D
trinque: i.e. shinohai registers his irc bouncer service as a subscription on deedbot, folks can subscribe and automatically pay him per interval
mircea_popescu: trinque next you can introduce underdraw fees, be 100% like a cc comp!
trinque: crash looping, also natural!
mircea_popescu: "sorry sir, your 4 cent subscription to Fishing Today is causing your account with us go into the red every month, at a cost of 70 dollars each."
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: :P
trinque: I figured I'd just ping shinohai to turn the person's shit off until new deposit
mircea_popescu: you're building an api around this then ?
trinque: aha
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: bot thinks its up, nothing shows in logs, uses precisely same stack i have running elsewhere
mircea_popescu: as long as well isolated, you know.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes may well be freenode dubiousness.
ben_vulpes: possible, but candi's the only node so affected

rog: got it
rog: how do i connect thru windows then with a pgp?

pete_dushenski: but with "railcar" of goodies, surely there's something for everyone
asciilifeform: most of it not worth cost of transport
asciilifeform: ( the , dunno, 50, cubometres of dead tree, say )
pete_dushenski: did asciilifeform have a list of railcar contents posted on blog yet ? you never know what's worth or not worth shipping...
asciilifeform: listed most of what's worth talking about, in the log.
pete_dushenski: link to list of dead tree cubometres ? musta missed it
asciilifeform: ah no that's not done yet
asciilifeform: prolly the 1 item that might interest people is the full set of bolix docs
asciilifeform: ( occupies whole shelf )
pete_dushenski: why do you always guess what other ppl will be interested in ? i really do think you'd be surprised if you stopped with the commentary and just listed everything
asciilifeform: because wtf, it isn't worth ~my~ time to catalogue every old toaster in the kitchen, and everypiece of dead tree rubbish that one could get for fiddycents from 'bookfinder' etc
asciilifeform: uniques/rarities strictly.
asciilifeform: at any rate, can't say that it's a very urgent thing -- prolly >1yr to launch day, for asciilifeform
pete_dushenski: ya not saying don't prioritise, just hard to imagine that you have only bolix and encyclopediae that qualify as "uniques/rarities". you're like a walking library and nihil fit ex nihilo. in my mind your library looks like http://images.mentalfloss.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/6551303327_bb9ac1f5d6_z-565x376.jpg

phf: pete_dushenski: that's a common misconception, i suspect asciilifeform's library consists of like 200-300 books, that are heavily annotated, because other books, while really nice to have, is a pain in the ass to manage, so you just cull to the current essentials and somehow source whatever's missing later.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: orig link is quite nonsensical tho : ru is ~exporter~ not importer of fissiles
asciilifeform: phf: i annotate in my head
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: RU is a wholeseller.
asciilifeform: and it's considerably larger but also low snr
asciilifeform: the 300 figure is closer to what i aim for in the launch capsule.
pete_dushenski: phf: i can see that. also, asciilifeform likely has a crate with spinning rust hdd's containing a vault's worth of digital tomes.
pete_dushenski: probably petabytes of txt and scanned wares
asciilifeform: pretty sure i retired the last rust hdd...

pete_dushenski al gymnasio
mircea_popescu: iwonder if phf's theory is correcty
BingoBoingo: trinque: Thoughts on a box?
mircea_popescu: irl i held ~10k tomes at home + 1.5mn or so held by the univ library for me
mircea_popescu: (in theory it's "for everyone", but in practice you're lucky if you get 1 user per mn books. cuz wtf do people want with them.)
mircea_popescu: but then again, humanities book needs > technical.
trinque: BingoBoingo: got a link to that blade you were talking about?
BingoBoingo: trinque: Blade would be built around BIOSTAR A68N-5545 shoved into "Build a Blade" enclosure linked earler. Some assembly required, but not experimental hardware at the ranch.
BingoBoingo: *alf ranch
trinque: might blade, might rack 1u, depending on what's on offer

asciilifeform: ( where they went ? unknown, prolly burned )
asciilifeform: made room for 'admin offices'
asciilifeform: ohai spyked
spyked: hi! sorry for the radio silence. I've been working myself out of various irl swamps lately (still in progress). following in read-only mode though.
spyked missed quite a lot while in read-only mode. glad to hear you enjoyed bucharest, asciilifeform. unexpected also. fortunately you didn't see it on weekdays.
asciilifeform: i did see it on weekday lol
asciilifeform: enjoyed timis far moar ftr.
asciilifeform: ( where, e.g., sidewalks can be walked on, rather than used as ad hoc orc parking lot )
spyked: I was firmly convinced your verdict would be "~shithole" (at least mircea_popescu's was some years ago).
asciilifeform: bucharest ?
spyked: yes
asciilifeform: it's still a notch or two ahead of, e.g., chicago
asciilifeform: and for that matter most of usa
asciilifeform: at least written in terms of 'bang per buck'
asciilifeform: and the parts of usa that it ~isn't~ two notches ahead of, asciilifeform will never live in
asciilifeform: so it's still a winner.
spyked: in other news, I've been using most of my spare cycles lisping in ada. should be able to wrap up a blog post sharing a very minimal prototype (sane implem. of repl doing nothing but basic ops) in a few weeks. what I've got now adheres to most of ffa constraints. the current version isn't very clean, but getting there...
asciilifeform: spyked: nifty
asciilifeform: tinyscheme-like item as discussed here ?
spyked: yes. hopefully more than that in the long term (item to be manually translated to e.g. fpga implementation)
asciilifeform: sounds like fun
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-12#1736759 << linked item is unpleasantly reminiscent of the 'artificially smoked' sprats that flooded the market in the early 2000s

asciilifeform: spyked: my original notion was, sane ecosystem is direly short of a simple scripting lang
asciilifeform: ( i'd quite like to perma-anathemize python,perl,all the multi-GB-pots-of-liquishit )
asciilifeform: and get something in which one might write things like http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1762
asciilifeform: but that ~itself~ weighs very little
asciilifeform: and is 'correct-by-obviousness'
spyked: I'm also keeping the idea of potentially embedding in other ada projects (e.g. adacoin?) in mind. but so far wrestling the ffa aspects were enough of a challenge. oh, and there's no gc yet, the thing leaks memory like hell. but that's not its biggest problem.
spyked: at least once it goes out of memory it will scream, unlike tinyscheme buffer overflows.
asciilifeform: i'm not fully convinced that a scripting lang ~needs~ a gc
asciilifeform: ( if your script runs for long enough that it needs gc -- maybe it oughta instead be an actual proggy ? )
spyked: ^ and if it does, should be easy to plug it in.
asciilifeform: on sane iron, gc really oughta be part of the iron. but that's whole other thread.
asciilifeform: spyked: consider posting your draft ( as asciilifeform posts his drafts occasionally )
asciilifeform: i'd much like to try it
spyked: right now the thing does a whole lot of consing (e.g. even when parsing), to avoid using ada run-time. but yeah, not posted, I'm talking about ~non-existing item.
asciilifeform: spyked: ideally you tell it on commandlinearg how much memory the script shot gets. and if it tries to cons 1 time too many, that's a eggog
asciilifeform: ( this is how 'p' works, as you will see in near future )
asciilifeform: spyked: it's ok to post it 1 routine at a time ( as i do with ffa )
spyked: asciilifeform, I considered doing that, but it's big enough (spread across 3-4 compilation units) that I'll need to wrap in blog post and do some preliminary documentation work
asciilifeform: fair'nuff
spyked: single routine is probably boring (I expect asciilifeform knows better than me how S-expr parsing works)
spyked: though there's devil hiding in those details
asciilifeform: parsing sanely (i.e. with meaningful eggog-recoveries) is tricky business
spyked: e.g. ada I/O is not especially suited for this task, because it reads either characters or full lines; and reading characters doesn't eat newlines, so gotta rely on shell buffering for sane interaction.
asciilifeform: your proggy should never try to eat or shit more than 1 char at a shot
asciilifeform: i.e. it should be compatible with 'no os' ( bare iron ) microcontroller and such
asciilifeform: ideally.
asciilifeform: a newline is just another octet.
spyked: on Get(Char), ada (at least gnat) seems to consume everything but linefeeds (even control characters such as EOT)
asciilifeform: the less use is made of ada standard libs, the moar likely the thing is to survive transition to whatever ada-with-maximal-dross-jettisonned that we eventually end up with.
spyked will keep this in mind
asciilifeform: spyked: i'ma post 'p' i/o routines, 1s
asciilifeform: from current draft :
asciilifeform: and yes we import the c char routines. but these can be replaced on bare iron with reads/writes of uart, trivially. or anything else we want.
spyked: asciilifeform, ty! I will study and put to use.
asciilifeform: the posted unit is the entirety of the machine-dependent part of 'p'.
asciilifeform: and for that matter of the ada std lib - using part ( once the debuggery put_line's in ffa are done away with )
spyked figures out he has a lot of work to do. but this -- after current code receives proper drilling from other interested people.
asciilifeform: meanwhile, in other volkischer beobachter lulz, https://archive.is/NS8Mr >> 'Mr. Williams had written on his company blog about the Shadow Brokers...

mircea_popescu: mats much better task than trying to "reform" mediocre intel.
mircea_popescu: here you just shoot everyone.

mircea_popescu: spyked pretty exciting.
asciilifeform: mats: as it is, the ~marketable half of the iq bell curve, already resigned and went into 'contracts'

mircea_popescu: there's this condition, entirely metabolic, not dermatologic, resulting from overexposure (as in 6 hours) to sun.
asciilifeform: '“Snowden killed morale,” another T.A.O. analyst said. “But at least we knew who he was. Now you have a situation where the agency is questioning people who have been 100 percent mission-oriented, telling them they’re liars.”'

mircea_popescu: it is. you get it in like, greek islands. sun too nice to burn but you do too much of it as a non-local
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform not just d vitamin, either. but basically what happens is sun-driven metabolism overwhelms liver, products build up. solution is "not be such a noob", stuff fixes itself but after some practicve.

mircea_popescu: moved industry to china, moved army to afghanistanis, pakistanis, whoever else could be arsed, move intel to israel next and so on.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: usg long ago gave up on intel in the traditional sense . e.g. nsa 'restaurant menu' consists ~100% of vulns they themselves created.
asciilifeform: ditto signals gathering
mircea_popescu: they indianselves created.
mircea_popescu: spyked do you have an agreement in principle with the guy or anything though ?
spyked: mircea_popescu, last line? also, no, haven't spoken to him. my idea was to just post this on blog and then ask him if he's willing to translate (refer log and so on). could also do it the other way around, not sure.
mircea_popescu: in your paste, last line, "These would be, dear local investors, a few specific"
mircea_popescu: and your idea is not good. first you talk to him in principle, then you do the script, then etc. cinema has a flow!
spyked still doesn't get first question.
mircea_popescu: spyked the romanian you pasted contains an english-language last line.
spyked: not only the last line.
mircea_popescu: oh it's dual. sorry, misread
spyked: anyway. I was going to give the translation a shot either way, to work out translation muscle.
spyked: but will drop teleschpenker a line and ask him if he's interested. (also, his rates, if any. from my pov the text is public and so on, I'm not exactly in the translation profession)
mircea_popescu: bwahahaha "The agency regarded as the world’s leader in breaking into adversaries’ computer networks failed to protect its own." what, is this from "the fake news site regarded (by itself) as the most influential item in the world, above even trilema, and staffed with people from the premiere (according to themselves) institution in the world" ?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform honestly, i believe there's 0 expectation on the part of us army that anyone under that flag will ever fight again. "you wanna shoot, join the police wtf! army is for "assisting local combatants"

BingoBoingo back from ferrying a little miss trainwreck around.
BingoBoingo: !~step12
jhvh1: 12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
asciilifeform: say moar, BingoBoingo
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: I've been ferrying a miss trainwreck around as favor to her sponsor. Very entertaining ordeal.
mircea_popescu: whoa earthquake
mircea_popescu: big enough to drop pots off shelves and shit
mircea_popescu: whoa. 7.0 in jaco!
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: What more is there to say, Spent good chunk of the day learning from the weapon of mass destruction in my passenger seat.
BingoBoingo: In other mine chaff: "What the fuck… that is the most messed up thing I ever read. I am not European just because I have white skin, you sicko. I do not relate to the experiences of white people, why would I identify with them? You probably have an inferiority complex and feel the need to pretend you’re white because you hate yourself."
BingoBoingo: "Instead of fetching your slippers they’ll shit on them without remorse, as if keenly aware that ruining your property would be insulting to you. Instead of sleeping next to you, ready, and waiting in guard position, they will find a comfy spot squarely on your forehead, burrow down and screech to high heaven if you motion to remove them. Rinse and repeat they will, despite many deserved beatings. Brats."
mats: "And we are pushing robots to the limit in terms of the speed that they can operate at, and asking our suppliers to make robots go way faster, and they are shocked because nobody has ever asked them that question. It's like if you can see the robot move, it's too slow. We should be caring about air friction like things moving so fast. You should need a strobe light to see it. And that's incredibly critical to CapEx
mats: efficiency."
mats: wat.
mats: (elon musk)
BingoBoingo: I thought needing a strobe light to see was something young boys learned escaping Kevin Spacey's basement
