11:20 thimbronion whaack, billymg could one of you point me to a guide as to how to genesis some code?
11:22 thimbronion I have vk.pl working. Just not sure how to use vdiff to create a genesis patch.
11:27 billymg thimbronion: just diff against an empty directory
11:28 thimbronion billymg: ty that works!
11:29 billymg thimbronion: nice. iirc the 'a' 'b' directory naming convention is necessary, but it's been a while so not 100% sure
11:31 thimbronion billymg: do I need to literally create two directories named 'a' and 'b'?
11:32 billymg thimbronion: that's what i always did for mp-wp patches, but i can't remember if that was simply because of how mp-wp was genesis'd or if that's a general V requirement
11:35 thimbronion billymg: then I sign the patch, creating a detached sig?
11:39 billymg thimbronion: yep yep, be sure to include a manifest file at the root of the project directory too (so not in 'b', but in b/proj/)
11:46 thimbronion billymg: I'm looking at the manifist for mp-wp - not quite sure what the number at the beginning of each line is
11:47 billymg thimbronion: current block height, original spec from trinque

11:48 billymg ah neato, there it is!
12:00 thimbronion Sometimes it's shocking contemplating the massive amount of text produced by the republic.
~ 2 hours 35 minutes ~
14:35 thimbronion billymg: I'm attempting to use the codeblock - but I can't tell looking at the source exactly what the delimiters should be. It looks like the opening delimiter is "\[[0-9]\[" - but I'm not sure what that looks like in practice.
14:36 thimbronion *the codeblock delimiters
~ 57 minutes ~
15:33 billymg thimbronion: i actually updated that based on feedback from jfw, so if you're running the latest mp-wp patch it'll be [diff[ ... ]] or [plaintext[ ... ]]
15:34 billymg leaving it empty or using any other string inside the opening [[ will default to plaintext formatting
15:34 billymg i.e. monospace font and line number anchors but no highlighting
15:34 billymg i should probably document this somewhere...
15:35 billymg i had to go look at an old post myself just to remember what the syntax was
~ 18 minutes ~
15:53 thimbronion billymg: tyvm [diff[ is working for me - now I also see why I need to escape all the parens in lisp code...
15:53 billymg thimbronion: heh, yup
15:55 billymg this footnote contains a sed one liner, and jfw's comment contains a shorter one
15:55 thimbronion This system is so insanely better than github.
15:55 billymg i still like mine even though it escapes characters that technically don't need to be escaped, just for consistency
15:58 billymg thimbronion: agree, and it's more or less at proof-of-concept level in terms of implementation
16:02 billymg iirc spyked was working on some mp-wp CLI tools (might have been someone else). i could easily see a few quality-of-life features added to the workflow without it becoming a "greased pole" that encourages sloppy work
16:02 snsabot (trilema) 2016-01-18 ascii_butugychag: btw i hope everybody understands that life with 'v' is always going to resemble dark age blood sports like cvs, etc. far more than modern greased poles (e.g., 'git')
16:02 thimbronion It is interesting to watch fiat coders destroying the value of their work - twitter, fb, google, and the rest.

16:04 thimbronion It's just like what's happening with fiat itself. Fiat is a network, and it's value comes from people being able to use it for whatever transactions they want. Every time usg cuts off some group from fiat, they're cutting off their own arm. Just as twitter is cutting off its nose to spite its face every time they ban an account.

16:06 billymg that's what i was thinking of
16:07 thimbronion oh wow that's a great article
16:08 thimbronion had many of the same thoughts
16:08 billymg http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/alethepedia/2020-11-21#1001308 << or shutting down every business that isn't amazon, grubhub, or mcdonalds because zomgcovid

16:09 thimbronion http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/alethepedia/2020-11-21#1001319 << yep.

16:09 billymg kill the tax base, then support the newly unemployed by adding them to the welfare system paid for by... the now reduced tax base??
16:12 thimbronion billymg: monumental stupidity
16:17 billymg thimbronion: well, i guess i should say add them to the welfare system after they've finished selling their assets, which i suspect is exactly their plan
16:17 snsabot (trilema) 2018-08-23 asciilifeform: if history's any guide, they're still in the 'first we'll try and starve the judenschwein, make'em unemployable, then they'll sell their gold to good aryans on their own power' stage of the algo
16:19 thimbronion billymg: I suspect the judenschwein had way more to sell than any business in the service industry w/owners likely levered to the hilt on their personal realestate.
