11:38 PeterL http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2020-05-07#1011418 << If we don't sign you complain "nobody reads", if we do sign you complain "idiots, should have caught mistake".
11:38 snsabot Logged on 2020-05-07 15:16:05 asciilifeform: fat lotta good the folx who supposedly 'read' and then signed ch15, did.
11:39 asciilifeform PeterL: the readers aint any dumber than i. mildly surprised that nobody saw the hole, is all.
11:40 PeterL BTW, in National Geographic Mag last mo there was an article about the Siberian Chukki people, included picture of a guy throwing a harpoon. Made me smile, made me think of you talkinging about "chukka" and throwing spears
11:41 asciilifeform PeterL: i also wonder whether something about the flavour of the thing discouraged folx from looking critically.
11:41 PeterL not sure if I got spelling right
11:41 asciilifeform chukcha
11:41 asciilifeform but i'm not one, so cannot authoritatively say re the translit
11:42 PeterL you do have a very authoratitative tone, it is intimidating to question your works
11:43 asciilifeform unintentional; but i can picture it. is is difficult to write maffs at any length w/out a certainty that what you've written is correct, and this bleeds into the picture
11:48 PeterL I guess the ch15 problem is an example of the limits of testing - you could pick a bunch of ways it does give the correct answer and miss the one way it fails
11:49 asciilifeform PeterL: worse. even tho relied on proof, rather than testing, my proof was braindamaged.
11:50 asciilifeform ( as was the test, oughta have iterated through extremes as well as random liquishit. )
~ 27 minutes ~
12:17 asciilifeform PeterL: i have the fix, the eggogology, an' the new proof, written; will post after properly massaged.
12:18 asciilifeform no particular point to hurrying these, esp. nao that my 'fans' , the ones who 'faster, faster' went home.
12:21 asciilifeform in tangentially-related noose, i finally installed one of these . pretty great for taking maffs into sunlight. 0 oven warm-up wait, unlike laser printer. and ~indestructible, no rubber belts, nada. an' fanfold is great for reading, always stays in order.
12:21 snsabot Logged on 2020-05-04 00:03:59 asciilifeform: in other noose, found out that not only are dot-matrix 'fanfold' printers still made, but one can get very fast (i.e. >1ln/s) one that eat a3 paper !
12:22 asciilifeform a++ linux support, also. again unlike various konsoomer garbage.
12:23 asciilifeform this particular one is a 'tally dascom 2600'. recommended, to anyone who comes across a 2ndhand one.
~ 15 minutes ~
12:39 PeterL Of course you would use the commie scum paper size of A3 instead of the good old American, God-given ledger paper size. You proabably want us all to use metric too, don't you?
12:40 PeterL </sarc>
12:40 asciilifeform lol where in usa could get a3.
12:41 PeterL I dunno, A# paper sizes make more sense to me, I wish Americans would switch.
12:41 * asciilifeform agrees
~ 5 hours 45 minutes ~
18:27 verisimilitude Does this recent issue change the opinion on solutions such as SPARK at all, asciilifeform?
~ 36 minutes ~
19:04 asciilifeform verisimilitude: it aint clear to me how spark could've helped. item was an algo, rather than programming, mistake.
19:12 asciilifeform on top of this, i've yet to witness a mecha-proof thing that doesn't turn 1 pg of coad into 40pg of barfola.

23:12 asciilifeform in other lulz, jurov -- dekulakized apparently?
23:16 * asciilifeform mildly surprised that there was apparently remaining fodder for the 'haha, i'ma unperson folx & eat their coinz' mill.
23:21 asciilifeform with what organ were you thinking, jurov ..? when you left coin there.
23:36 asciilifeform incidentally, jurov , perhaps my monitor's defective, but i dun see any mention of mp in the tbf charter.
