For example, "wget -pk --user-agent="" -e robots=off --wait 1 http://archive.is/MiJ5U" yields a handful of .pngs and nothing else. Versus just wget-ing the actual trilema item with the same options yields a perfectly usable local copy

mircea_popescu: also, my policy re "diacritics" as they're called is that i don't write them, but i don't actually bother to take em out from text i touch. so there's all sorts of ro literature i fixed on my blog, where it's quite evident what the original author contributed and what i put in, because the rotards are very much into this "currently correct romanian notation is alphabet + 5, down from alphabet + 12 a century ago, and THIS MATT

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform here's a lulz for you : before making the fain@polimedia item discussed in logs recently ( http://btcbase.org/log/2017-10-28#1730110 etc) i actually attempted a... ro dictionary full rewrite. was called "adex".

a111: Logged on 2017-10-28 05:58 mircea_popescu: hanbot you prolly recall, old fain datas, http://trilema.com/2011/2022353/

shinohai: Apparently I missed that one

mircea_popescu: so now, upon proceeding with this item of yours, i obviously reopened that 7 year old directory. wherein i found...

mircea_popescu: an antique and therefore reliable copy of the dex (dictionar explicativ al limbii romane). 80 mb's worth.

mircea_popescu: i presume you want ?

asciilifeform: aha!

asciilifeform: in other pipeline, the 'proverbs' item is hopelessly bitrotten, i'ma jettison it. the 'tech' and 'expressions' otoh are ready, dedupped, and flipped ( so as ro->eng )

mircea_popescu: shinohai lel

asciilifeform: and ready for either genesisation or not

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform how many lines the expression item ? (tech i will asume worthl;ess sight unseen -- bot didn't write a ro tech dictionary and ~nobody else was qualified to)

asciilifeform: http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ro_eng_tech.txt http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ro_eng_expr.txt << 313333337 w4r3z

asciilifeform: again, за что купил зато и продаю , no guarantee of wtf is in'ere

asciilifeform: ftr, how to flip one of these :

asciilifeform: paste -d'`' <(cut -f2 -d'`' orig_dict.txt) <(cut -f1 -d'`' orig_dict.txt) | sort -n > flipped_dict.txt

asciilifeform: ^^^ worx great ^^^

mircea_popescu: yep, teh tech bit is entirely not worth anyone's time.

asciilifeform: imho the 1st item was much too full of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740598 as it was

a111: Logged on 2017-11-19 02:11 asciilifeform: e.g. ' ciclu format din atomi de carbon`carboatomic ring ' and the like.

asciilifeform: might even be worth using the tech list as ~subtractand~

mircea_popescu: "12 este divizibil prin 2`12 is divisible by 2" holy shit. there are some useful expressions in the expression item, however a) very low snr, lots of useless crap and b) idiomatics not really a good fit for dictionary, much better fit in blog articles.

mircea_popescu: consequently ima skip.

asciilifeform: oh btw i cut some truly egregious nonsense from orig item : it had a coupla dozen 'dates of life of great people'

asciilifeform: because apparently when caesar lived totally belongs, according to these folx, in a dictionary.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform lots of good ones missing. "i-a picat fata" (his face fell off) ; "a dat cu mucii-n fasole" (he snotted the refried beans) ; "iti pica fisa ?" (does the coin inserted into your coinslot actually fall through the spuriously complex machinery inside your otherwise empty skull to make the necessary contacts ?) ; "a freca menta" (mintrubbing, absent ?! gimme a break!) ; "ai morcov [in fund] ?" (to have a carrot [up

mircea_popescu: arse]) and so on and so following

asciilifeform: i suspect it's an ancien-regime work

mircea_popescu: it misses so many of the most trite expressions it's not worth mentioning as a dictionary anyway, much in the way a "map" of texas that only had dallas.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform all these are pre 1980.

asciilifeform: it shows

mircea_popescu: the snot item is very likely older than the united states for example.

asciilifeform: i meant it was prolly considered 'unprintable' by the '80s prudes

mircea_popescu: but the coin item is VERY specifically related to apparatus that only existed in the 80s.

mircea_popescu: besides, im pretty sure i saw all of these in ro printed matter.

asciilifeform: then nfi

asciilifeform: afaik a quality 'expressions' dict dun exist for any modern lang. it's a tricky item.

mircea_popescu: that nsa chose to publish some derpage through usg.nsa.x-shithead or through usg.nsa.y-shithead is not a meaningful point of difference.

mircea_popescu: in no case may such be used to establish any kind of professional credentials for the designated x, y, etceteras.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform quite.

mircea_popescu: and so, to get back to it, and in the words of the great nigger Hussein Bahamas, "if you did a thing you didn't do that thing". therefore matt blaze neither was touched nor could have been touched by anyone, be they john drapper or anyone else ; nor has matt blaze had published anything of any note, re ciphers or cooking or anything else.

asciilifeform: right. depressing.

mircea_popescu: what complaint can there be had ? "starve to the light" is for teens, small children have no useful fat reserves.

asciilifeform: ( was interesting episode, the 'war of life' thing, where the entirely unrelated d00d went apeshit over its closing )

mircea_popescu: i don't recall that part ?

asciilifeform: too many forced marches like this and you end up with africa-style 'instant balloon' genotype

asciilifeform: so has down side.

mircea_popescu: hey. don't make the call unless it's warranted.

mircea_popescu: there is unlimited responsibility bundled with unlimited power.

asciilifeform: oh hah i can finally read that.

mircea_popescu: (whole thing is entirely symbolic by now, obviously. but at one point ...)

asciilifeform: ( re the 2012 piece )

mircea_popescu: lemme know if problem.

asciilifeform: btw, for my fellow rotakus ( shinohai , pete_dushenski , ben_vulpes .. ? ) grep -i '^foobar' ro_eng_ascii.txt finds word foobar.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform are you gonna vpatch the new dict on the old btw ? or what's next step here ?

asciilifeform: which new

mircea_popescu: sql item linked today

asciilifeform: that's separate item tho. it's a толковый словарь

mircea_popescu: so is your original, has word, definition, english equiv.

asciilifeform: prolly oughta turn into plain txt and genesisate tho.

mircea_popescu: can readily replacve the middle column

shinohai: Would be greatly appreciated to have plaintext item, asciilifeform .... I also prefer to simply grep word I am looking for whilst studying.

mircea_popescu: the correct transform imo would be from your (word/dubious expl/engl equiv) into (word/proposed english equiv/ipa notation/proper dex expl). this can be done mechanically on the basis of the two items.

asciilifeform: waitasec how to mechanize the ipa ?

mircea_popescu: look at it, it's always separated in the definition, at beginning

asciilifeform: aa hmm.

mircea_popescu: you could ALSO add the etymology notation as separate field, but can also leave it as is (part of the expl)

mircea_popescu: now, i would much appreciate if you took the current bs and ipa'd it properly (it's not THAT hard, ro ipa set is narrow and unambiguous)

mircea_popescu: but with those changes you not only have only ro dict online, but you also have best ro dict ever made in 3k years of ro history.

asciilifeform: the one i genesised ? it's been de-orced, so to ipaize gotta be re-orced

mircea_popescu: making you a major cultural player, in the vein of dead people.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform cuz no ascii-ipa hm ?

asciilifeform: this also. but i was speaking of http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-19#1740588

a111: Logged on 2017-11-19 02:00 asciilifeform: caveat x2 : no îțâșă . but it was missing in the original, i did not remove it. ascii-only, in the derp's original, e.g. 'uşă' turns into 'usa'.

mircea_popescu: wut do we do.

asciilifeform: The Trooo Ultimate Ro Dict prolly oughta be a sexpr

asciilifeform: with (yes) orcographic word, inflections, ipaism, dexism.

mircea_popescu: myeah.

mircea_popescu: lol randomly perusing we find "a da muie la statuie" (to fuck statue face), ie superlative dissidence.

asciilifeform: it is truly mind-boggling, this item was possible already around 1995 or so. and yet afaik exists for no language.

mircea_popescu: ikr.

asciilifeform: nao, a language, granted, is moar than merely its dictionary. but innit a crying shame, that we're still stuck with shit dictionaries.

mircea_popescu: very much so.

mircea_popescu: this would be (as per tradition / discussion yest etc) actually a very powerful item ~for the student of english~, too. even if he only spake english.

asciilifeform: verily.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform anyway, for some reason i thought dex included a pronounciation guide, but it seems mostly absent/unreliable.

mircea_popescu: so i guess we can skip the ipa bit for now

asciilifeform: i'd settle for getting the orcograms back in 'ro_eng'

mircea_popescu: pretty sure my item is 100% diacritic-ized.

asciilifeform: ( would put'em as a middle column, rather than in place of the existing )

asciilifeform: dex ? yea it is

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform can even put them as aside binary blob, as discussed re fg/bootturds etc. "you wanrt to see the orcograms, find item #x in list"

asciilifeform: well in sexpr they'd end up named, things like #\Alef

asciilifeform: rather than binturds

mircea_popescu: this would be a good thing in the eye of the lord.

asciilifeform: ( the lisp folx, fwiw, largely finessed the orcogram problem before utf8 climbed down from the trees )

mircea_popescu: anyway, to leave the pressure off : im still willing to go through it by line and improve as time permits, but there's no rush, so let's first make an optimal basis and see.

asciilifeform: long term thing. nobody yet baked a dictionary in a day, lol

mircea_popescu: ro guy spent life trying to bake dict

mircea_popescu: !~google b p hasdeu

jhvh1: mircea_popescu: Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu - Wikipedia: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogdan_Petriceicu_Hasdeu>; Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu National College - Wikipedia: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogdan_Petriceicu_Hasdeu_National_College>; Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu - Wikipedia: <https://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogdan_Petriceicu_Hasdeu>

mircea_popescu: let's also see if phf wants to add nething.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform as an aside : the "limba romana este singura limba care se scrie cum se citeste" ro linguistics dogmatics promises there's a workable ro-ipaize-tron somewhere. at least in the sense of "we could get 99% success rate". it IS a point of fact that ~any romanian speaker can correctly notate new words on the basis of sound, and this is PRECISELY the sort of artificial intelligence that's amenable to numeric methods.

mircea_popescu: so notbad ai side project imo

mircea_popescu: in the sense that the resulting code would be in itself an interesting knowledge pile.

mircea_popescu: as opposed to eg alphabet co go-playing code.

asciilifeform: dunno if 'se scrie cum se citeste' claim of ro is any moar troo than the ru 'как слышится так и пишется' truism

mircea_popescu: i suspect it is. no proof until code written of course.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform let's try this. make up a girl's name and i'll tell you how it sounds in romanian. then diana_coman spyked alex_c whosoever else can confirm or infirm.

mircea_popescu: (point being -- UNKNOWN romanian words stll have a strict phonetic / alphabetic correspondence in romanian. somehow. how ?)

asciilifeform: unknown words get the regular algo and that's that, they're never the problem

asciilifeform: the problem is typically common-use irregulars

mircea_popescu: i can't think of one ; except for imports (see eg http://trilema.com/2010/care-sunt-iq-tau/#comment-123116 margot, read in ro in the french manner).

mircea_popescu: stands out like sore thumb for it too, wtf is that o.

asciilifeform: see in ru we dun have this problem , it gets fixed 'automagically', e.g. Марго

asciilifeform: ( you can't write the loaned name in orc directly, so it gets properly phonized )

mircea_popescu: yes well.

mircea_popescu: but incidentally -- same treatment could be applied to ru-eng item, resulting in a megabridge here.

asciilifeform: ( nobody in ru has a problem knowing how to say e.g. Чаушеску . it's a nearly magical fix. )

mircea_popescu: how about hors d'oeuvres ?

asciilifeform: ipatronic ru dict is just about trivial.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: закуски!!1111

mircea_popescu: (is hysterical bit re this in classical ro comedy film, "monsieur se scrie, monsieur se citeste, ci tat umbli cu cioara vapsita!")

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ahahyah win

mircea_popescu: anywauy, i didn't mean "same treatment" in the sense of ipaization, i meant same treatment in the sense of translaty/explainy flatfile.

asciilifeform: aa

mircea_popescu: then you can ACTUALLY translate, for once.

mircea_popescu: got a gateway to latin and a gateway to the east, and the idiotic lingua franca of stupid people as the archimede screw for it all.

asciilifeform: there's a whole bunch of'em on www. asciilifeform has not formally collected, compared, yet.

asciilifeform: e.g. http://www.lib.ru/DIC/OZHEGOW/ozhegow_p_r.txt

mircea_popescu: this looks like proper item.

asciilifeform: prolly the best known one.

asciilifeform: 19th c

asciilifeform: or hm

asciilifeform: strike that, 1949.

asciilifeform: ( still in print. )

mircea_popescu: "ПАТЕНТ, -а, м. 1. Документ, свидетельствующий о праве изобретателя на его изобретение, о его приоритете. Получить п. на изобретение. 2. Свидетельство на право занятия торговлей, промыслом. || прил. патентный, -ая, -ое. Патентное прав

mircea_popescu: о."

mircea_popescu: i like this.

mircea_popescu: somehow a dictionary entry is the best way to distinguish men from idiots.

mircea_popescu: which doesn't mean creeping featuritis, but ALSO does not mean "here's half of koschei's heart in lib.ru domain and other half buried way across buyan, in us.archive.org"

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform ikr ? the previous set of globalists, with the tripod sites etc, promised lots of jules verne crap, went away like nothing.

asciilifeform: nao there is some devil in the details, namely what to do with linkages that aren't straight equivalence, b/w word-in-a and word-in-b

mircea_popescu: wind of change my ass ; eat more fucking fiber fuckers!

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform always a problem of translaty dict, as discussed. no way out of this, translaty dict is perl.

mircea_popescu: but if explainy part provided, some perl on the side is no longer brain rotting.

mircea_popescu: rather -- no longer guaranteed to give brain damage.

mircea_popescu: ("but mp, wtf is explainy, not an english word" "fuck you.")

mircea_popescu: im not saying explainatory, esp because wtf is translatatory then.

asciilifeform: i find it interesting, entomologically, what the anglotards did with the idea of dictionary. they turned instrument ~for learning language~ into one ~for avoiding learning language~ -- the result is google's 'translate'

mircea_popescu: quite.

mircea_popescu: much like they managed to turn banking system from system for achieving wealth to system for avoiding wealth.

mircea_popescu: it's the anglocurse.

asciilifeform: to make the one instrument of enstupefaction, they used enuff sweat to make ten of actual learning

asciilifeform: that's the surreal bit

mircea_popescu: myeah

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so are we deciding that is to be the base item and not gonna dump new dex into it ?

asciilifeform: i dun see it as a blocking operation

asciilifeform: can extend the primitive dict for nao, then merge laters.

mircea_popescu: it's blocking in my head cuz im not gonna edit items by hand if they're gonna be updated by machine.

mircea_popescu: general principle, handwork lastwork.

asciilifeform: the machine would still do the Right Thing later, when merging into the larger dex

asciilifeform: but i'd be curious to hear what various folx ( phf , say ) have to say re optimal data structure for dicts.

asciilifeform brb,meat

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it can't do the right thing if i changed the explanation.

a111: Logged on 2017-10-25 18:02 mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski considering the current bezzle pressure / overwhelming inflation and the very personal-brand-oriented populace, it will probably be 1bn just to be able to say 1bn.

pete_dushenski: "At some level, the $450 million number is so big as to be meaningless. If I told you that the painting was bought for 60,000 bitcoins, would that make it easier to stomach?" << lulzomatic commentary on said auction from felix salmon https://tinyletter.com/felixsalmon/letters/nota-bene-10

pete_dushenski: sorry, painting was Salvator Mundi, not Madonna...

pete_dushenski: "Maybe the $450 million is just a function of how rich the world's richest people have become. The price needed to be that high, just for them to notice the money." << salmon is right here at least. stacks of gov-backed paper just don't feel like all that much these days.

asciilifeform: 'rare art' is simply low-tech pre-bitcoin btc for lizards

asciilifeform: inflation-proof money bag.

pete_dushenski: much prettier than btc too but that mostly depends on how much you're turned on by p2p network mechanics

asciilifeform: often enuff ugly as used toiletpaper.

asciilifeform: important bit is that it be authenticable.

pete_dushenski: aha. "modern art" is often just so soiled as to be rightfully confused for tp.
