spyked: lobbes, hey ty!
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-05#1820740 <-- ftr, most of my names point to this address and I expect them to for the foreseeable future. I'll follow in trinque's footsteps and deed it.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-05 16:37 phf: resolves to 82.79.58.192 for me
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-05#1820744 <-- yes, although I'm personally not convinced one way or the other. my q is, should "allcomers" (e.g. people without WoT presence) even be able to comment? I don't know, maybe the question itself has no merit, mircea_popescu is of course much more qualified than me to establish this.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-05 16:42 mircea_popescu: spyked, the first portion is interesting imo. why shouldn't anyone be able to live comments ? something in the vein of "if every tree was carved any time anyone on the trail thought about some girl, we'd have toothpick forests" ?
spyked: the question stemmed from "what are valid inputs for blogotron?", which led to "should comments be permitted for anons, or should they be predicated upon identity?". otherwise I very much like the current organization and I believe that venues that don't allow inline commenting (such as thetarpit in its current state) are only "half blogs", not fully.
spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-05#1820747 <-- I dun disagree at all. as far as the thought experiment goes, I still wonder, though, whether those edges of productivity follow from *all* the lines of mp-wp code and is more than the sum of each, or whether there's a lot of extra crud in there. perhaps overly naively/boyishly at the time, I started my (still ongoing) experiment the other way around ("what is the minimum number of lines to

spyked: spend to obtain sane blogging tool").
mircea_popescu: spyked, you read the cherri&rae dialogue ?
spyked: yeah
spyked: will have to give it a second pass to make some notes, the variety of subjects discussed blew my mind a bit.
mircea_popescu: so my question to you is : should someone who ~doesn't even own a computer~ (because no, her retarded "iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 11_2 like Mac OS X)" eminently is not a computer, nor anything even remotely LIKE mac os x) be allowed to comment ?
mircea_popescu: should billiardaires even talk to the lowly bank clerks on the internets ? just how haughty shall we get before there's really nothing left to talk about ?
spyked sees mircea_popescu's point
spyked: anyway, given my limited experience with wp (nowadays I just lul at the attackers from republic of moldova trying to gain wp-admin access for the old blog), I am ready to admit that mp-wp's may be the optimal permeability of this membrane. I was even tempted to switch to mp-wp, but I'm hoping to see trilema antispam implemented in Lisp at some point in the future.

mircea_popescu: word. stalinism without stalin, how the fuck is this even possible.
mircea_popescu: they miss daddy, these people.

mircea_popescu: myeah, ie o floare, ie un crin, ie parfumul cel mai fin.
mircea_popescu: do you know, by the way, they've managed to do away with multitasking ?
mircea_popescu: "smart"phones for dumb people ; can only do 1 thing at a time, and that's it. no remanence, let alone permanence.
mircea_popescu: (not ~usefully~, obviously. it still runs all the various inca probing bullshit every cycle, of course)
mircea_popescu: spyked, re the other thing, i expect the item can be both massively trimmed and significantly improved still. the discussion was carried in principle ("so manty lines!") not really objectively, "why this exact line for each line". i think it's entirely possible even the final product, as a conceptual ideal, may exceed (reasonable!) expectations of "how long code should be".
mircea_popescu: take the obvious "wtf is with your >80 char lines omfg". well.. php is what's with it. hence the whole "it's a scripting language built atop a webotron, to glue it to a rmdbs, whadda ya want"
mircea_popescu: ~hypertext preprocessor~. wtf are you going to do ? do you want hypertext or don't you ? do you want separable parts or don't you ? it's a triangle, right, a) well specified tasks ; b) separable parts ; c) no glue needed. pick two.

spyked: mircea_popescu, re. smartphone, everytime I bring the "why use linux shitstack with so many layers of abstraction for mere phone" argument to certain ppl, they're all "oh, but it runs on so many devices". and I guess they're right in a certain way. gotta keep 'em busy, give 'em "choices", or at least the illusion thereof.
mircea_popescu: i dunno that the item has anything to do with linux.
mircea_popescu: by now it's a hoyota, son of used car lot owner built himself a car out of parts.
spyked: afaik ios (the other smartphone os besides android) runs on 1 hardware platform and the os doesn't multitask (or maybe it does in the newer versions? hell if I know). while all other smartphones besides apple's run android, and there's some diversity in the hardware platforms, which is why they based the os on the kernel that "runs on everything".
mircea_popescu: right. i was discussing the former. which, contrary to hopes&aspirations, owns the market.
spyked: the downside is a horrible drain on battery (and there wasn't much of that to go with it in the first place), but eh, they made their choices.
spyked: buuut... yeah, sometimes smartphone os lets user do 2 things at a time: listen to music while instagramming.
mircea_popescu: just like in the old days of dos.
asciilifeform: ipnoje? they have a split screen thing.
asciilifeform: sorta like dos 'sidekick' i guess
mircea_popescu: incidentally, when is the nsa computer ready ?
mircea_popescu: im not gonna have her take nudies on her current shitstack.

asciilifeform: why it needs ~own~ ftp server?!
asciilifeform: because we host on winblowz box with no ftp??
mircea_popescu: so you can run it without a ftp server.
asciilifeform: it's outrageous

mircea_popescu: 500 lines! compare to the original!
mircea_popescu: "but mp, none of this shit works" "shhh"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform, anyway, it's a wrapper, for a very hacky libssh.so
spyked: so mp-wp is an operating system? ( http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-13#1798159 could then make a great corollary to greenspun's thing)
a111: Logged on 2018-04-13 16:20 mircea_popescu: spyked how about THIS definition for the operating system : "that set of code that is trusted implicitly". this then makes EVERYTHING on a windows machine operating system, which i contend is right and proper -- the necessary result of opaque monolith systems design is universalization of the os.
mircea_popescu: spyked, there's a reason they put all the blogs on the same one box :D
mircea_popescu: but yes, if you run a php interpreter you've got a windows box, pretty much. state of the art in empire.

asciilifeform: and yes.
asciilifeform: the soldering, ditto. strictly to make 'unbrickable' test unit for the bootloader attempts.
asciilifeform: for mass production, will still need to open up the boxen to do the write-unprotect magic (lift battery plug, boot on mains current, reflash, put back) but that's it.

douchebag: I got bit by something
douchebag: and now I have a bullseye shaped bite wound

douchebag: It's red/black/blue at the center and redness surrounding the area
douchebag: in addition to that I've been vomiting since I woke up

asciilifeform has that very same 'soapbox'
asciilifeform: sadly enuff it loses to 3+ y.o. pnoje , somehow
asciilifeform: despite the latter's fingernail lens
mircea_popescu: i can't imagine how.
asciilifeform: combination of the sensor and the stabilizer .
mircea_popescu: i've seen the sort of pixelated bs the iphone spits out.
mircea_popescu: ~no way.
asciilifeform: speaking here of the 6th ipnoje.
asciilifeform: ( which happily snarfs in, e.g., whole page of a4 text, legibly. ye olde minox nervously smokes in the corner )
asciilifeform: granted it all goes straight to crapple.
asciilifeform: i'd quite like to buy a standalone cam with equiv perfomance. but ( aside from kg brick of 'slr' ) they dun make them.
mircea_popescu: you can't be serious, can you ?
asciilifeform: pnojeism killed the soapbox
asciilifeform: and ^ this is after scaling down from the ridiculous (4000x3000 or something close) orig res

asciilifeform: it's a good pic

asciilifeform: possibly. my rx100 is ~useless at palm's length distance.
mircea_popescu: play with it, it's very customizable.
asciilifeform: what i really oughta get, is a proper trinocular microscope. camera is great but can't really solder under camera.

mircea_popescu: you're talking mms, nice large 3x, 5x, 8x glass is inexpensive.
asciilifeform: it's what i use now
asciilifeform: problem is glare.
mircea_popescu: is it a low glare lens ?
asciilifeform: not the problem. glare from the contacts on pcb. same reason pcb is such a bitch to photograph -- needs good low light sensor, if you simply up the lamp, you nuke exposure
asciilifeform: ( all the au-plated junk )
mircea_popescu: a yea...
mircea_popescu: but have you tried colored light ?
asciilifeform: the magic pill is polarizer
asciilifeform: (on proper scope)
mircea_popescu: but ~color~ might actually do it too. metal is not uniformly reflective across spectrum
mircea_popescu: get a battery of red leds say.
asciilifeform: this is the classic case for polarizer, want only the diffuse light, not the orthogonal reflected
mircea_popescu: true. but there's some merit in trying some combinations of fiddy bux solutions before springing the 3k

asciilifeform: ( and yes it will take an FG on the usb jack like any other box )
mircea_popescu: it got no usb ports ?!
mircea_popescu: right. that. what.
asciilifeform: has 3 (1 normal, 2 weirdo 'usb-c')
asciilifeform: right, i was speaking of the minimal unit.
asciilifeform: also the 16GB onboard ssd is rather tight, for serious work i'd mount /home on a sd card.
asciilifeform: ( re 'usb-c' -- it's an interesting item, worx as both usb and power in/out, the thing charges by being connected to mains brick through either of the 2 )
asciilifeform: the schematics whisperer d00d suggested that it also has the uart brought out on hidden pins ; i have a test adapter cable due in this wk that will test this theory
asciilifeform: ( somewhat unsurprisingly, d00d in q never returned with the promised docs )
asciilifeform: speaking, upstack, of microscopy, did we ever do the 'why not gamma inspection, like for steel beams' thread ?
asciilifeform: imho it's a promising (and afaik 100% unexplored, in re chip reversing) method, and , bonus, nondestructive (i.e. inspect and then ~use~ device)
asciilifeform: given as they dun refract -- would need to use something like minksy's confocal method.
asciilifeform: ( where a raster-scanning mechanical 'pinhole' is used, and the distance of source/detector from sample, is varied )
asciilifeform: given as an ic is a relatively (vs e.g. steel beams, or cement) 'soft' material, you would not need the capsule-of-doom from http://btcbase.org/log/2018-05-11#1812331
