12:51 asciilifeform ( serious q. asciilifeform met 100% functional, even technical, folx who could not reliably recall which direction key turns in a lock used erryday, & similar )
12:52 adlai markdown does [text](link), TMSR-under-MP did [link][text], I have no problem switching henceforth to [text][link] for castle stanislav.

12:55 asciilifeform hm am i reading backwards or wat
12:55 adlai old deedbot dust doesn't cover any further argument on this topic, so for all I care, use curly braces and angle brackets.
12:56 asciilifeform am reading backwards. it's [link][text] errywhere, and in muscle memory
12:56 asciilifeform will have to see wai adlai's pauli link dun render

12:58 asciilifeform hm let's try this..
12:58 asciilifeform yeah it's the _ .
12:58 asciilifeform will fix in next rev. of logotron.

13:03 snsabot mike_c last seen in #ossasepia on 2020-03-25 13:34:39: In any case, I put a shutdown notice up and will close it in a few months.
13:03 asciilifeform adlai: phf incidentally is alive, occasionally updates the vtree www. but we haven't spoken since the quoted line.
13:03 * adlai actually reached for btcalpha, before starting to kicking the deedbot !
13:07 * adlai wonders when [and whether?] mike_c will answer d_c's q, seeing as quite a bit of the old infrastructure rose and fell at his whim and expense.
13:07 snsabot (ossasepia) 2020-03-25 diana_coman: mike_c out of curiosity if you don't mind me asking - why now rather than at ~any other point in those many past years? since you say you never really had interest in it, it was just that you helped get it stood up at some point and nothing more.
13:10 * adlai stares at "#ossasepia: Cannot join channel (+i) - you must be invited" ; recalls "CAUTION: THIS SIGN HAS SHARP EDGES" lolgif ; and wanders off.
13:10 asciilifeform adlai: it's outta biz, in case you missed
13:10 snsabot (ossasepia) 2020-09-22 diana_coman: with this, the moving on is finally done for #ossasepia too: I devoiced everyone and removed all flags from all bots, feel free to take them offline as there isn't going to be any use for them in here.
13:11 asciilifeform adlai: why, what didja lose there ?
13:14 adlai lose? not much, although I am slightly puzzled that these abdicating lords choose to lock, sack, and torch their own castles, rather than merely retiring to some shangry-la.
13:15 asciilifeform adlai: folx who mothball their fleanode chans normally lock'em, so not fills w/ liquishit. this is unremarkable.
13:16 adlai e.g., d_c's dismissal of me was quite far from mp's designation of me as public enemy number karpeles, although the two castles seem to have reached similar states, from my perspective.
13:16 snsabot (ossasepia) 2019-12-28 diana_coman: adlai: unsolicited advice is for writing on your own blog, not in here; do write in here when you have some unsolicited but useful work you want to showcase.
13:18 asciilifeform adlai: i dun recall why mp threw you. iirc for being a bore ?
13:18 adlai arguably, lost nothing whatsoever, since the younghanded guitarist seems to politely ignore me, although 'knows where I live', if my advice, solicited or otherwise, is ever needed.
13:19 adlai ah, so this is how you snore in Romanian!
13:20 asciilifeform adlai: re blogs, it aint actually bad advice imho, you defo have enuff to say to keep a www reasonably filled
13:20 adlai for the db
13:20 snsabot (trilema) 2017-01-26 mircea_popescu: To be clear re ^ : dude's been trying to attack the republic for over a year by now through the remarkably idiotic procedure of speaking as if he has some weight. Because who knows, maybe we're all dumb dumb and this contextual approach actually works, we'll end up thinking he's somebody because he's been acting as if he were for so long, everyone forgot he isn't.
13:21 adlai indeed; and m_p's imperative, from years earlier, is still somewhere in the queue.
13:21 snsabot (trilema) 2016-04-10 mircea_popescu: anyway, so i suppose in the "blogs that must be", we have "adlai - views from inside the insane asylum" and "phf - they have philosophy in russia even!"
13:23 adlai it'll take a while, of course, although mircea doesn't exactly seem to be refreshing my blog every minute, waiting for "One Jew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" or whatever I'll call it
13:23 asciilifeform adlai: didja ever consider taking asciilifeform's advice from that thrd ?
13:23 snsabot (trilema) 2017-01-26 asciilifeform: adlai: also consider taking up useful work.
13:23 adlai yes. they're not hiring!
13:23 asciilifeform fughet 'they'
13:23 asciilifeform didntcha have a buncha commonlisp experiment ?
13:24 asciilifeform where did all of it go ?
13:24 asciilifeform adlai: i can't speak for other folx, but if asciilifeform at any pt thought 'why write, no one will read' would never have written anyffin.
13:25 adlai most sits in my hd; most of that, reflected by shithub; and some of that, also reflected by a handful of other silver-lined clouds.
13:25 adlai I avoid writing more code primarily due to the horrible mess that I produced so far.
13:26 asciilifeform adlai: there are many unsolveds that involve ~cutting~ rather than writing. wainot e.g. take gcc & strip the cruft. so many useful undone things that folx could do..
13:27 * adlai spends 90% of the time that is arguably loggable as "trading", not writing code, nor reading the existing code, but meditating on how to avoid building multics when redesigning scalpl, which is queued for sometime in the next two years.
13:27 asciilifeform adlai: or , if feeling mathematical, help find mistakes in ffa, for instance.
13:28 adlai regrettably, my interest in mathematics has almost monotonically decreased since my peak days as 'mathlete' in high school.
13:28 adlai FFA seems, from slightly more than arms' length away, to be an exercise in Ada, not mathematics; although, I may be quite mistaken!
13:29 asciilifeform adlai: or, if still like 'trading' ? find a way to phase-locked-loop against the 'btc-usd fire extinguisher' cycle, get filthy rich..
13:30 asciilifeform adlai: primary in mathematics. the ada is incidental.
13:30 asciilifeform adlai: if fortran had clean array slice assignments, would've been in fortran.
13:31 adlai there is an old joke, that asciilifeform may have actually never seen before, about how you can predict what a trader's college degree was, based on the kind of metaphor he uses to describe his 'signals'
13:31 asciilifeform haven't heard, if you can believe
13:31 adlai like all old jokes, has ~infinite verses, one per field of college degree.
13:31 * asciilifeform 0 contact w/ traders etc. in civilian life
13:32 asciilifeform adlai: ftr btw the only mathematics used in ffa is of the kind taught in grade school.
13:33 adlai e.g., "phase locked loop" -> EE, "uncertainty reduction" -> physicist, "buy rumor, sell news" -> communist^H^Hcations,
13:35 adlai oddly enough, the version of this joke that I originally encountered did not include anything about augury, astrology, etc; apparently it is embarassing to admit that there is value in uncorrelated randomness!
13:36 adlai (a fact known to anyone who has studied programmatic trading seriously, whether in academia or at personal expense)
13:37 asciilifeform adlai: notion 'market is random!!' is chumpfodder. particularly in re btc/heathen exch.
13:38 adlai that is not what I wrote.
13:38 asciilifeform see also thread .
13:38 snsabot Logged on 2020-05-05 19:54:51 asciilifeform: thimbronion: are you familiar with the 'paper gold' racket ? worx well enuff to keep 'price of gold' in check for ~century nao.
13:38 adlai randomness, of the unwhitened, uncorrelated, uncorrelatable kind, is valuable when timing the spontaneous execution of a deterministic strategy.
13:39 asciilifeform adlai: that yes
13:40 adlai it eventually gets 'whitened out', or whatever colorless grue/bleen metaphor awakens your attention, by a sufficiently attentive observer; although it is indispensible in the short term.
13:41 asciilifeform possibly i dunget it ? what can 'sufficiently attentive observer' do against a trng ?
13:42 adlai meanwhile, my primary problem with 'useful work' is the same aversion Naggum described in paragraphs 1, 2, and 5
13:44 asciilifeform adlai: i.e. erry problem you pick up, seems immediately a snore to you ?
13:44 adlai you dunget the answer to an overly general problem, that neither of us stated; specifically, in the context of timing market orders, a TRNG does not increase profit; it reduces expected expense, by increasing overhead for someone counter-trading your specific strategy.
13:45 asciilifeform adlai: right, i get this part - same reason mirv warheads have onboard trng..
13:46 adlai in this context, 'sufficiently attentive counter-trader' can pretty much observe, eventually, that there is a certain strategy being executed with randomness added to reduce determinism; then, sigh, and search for other signals in the noise, while hoping that they have not increased gain past sane levels.
13:47 asciilifeform fair'nuff
13:47 adlai in the specific - and almost entirely orthogonal - context of the advertised purpose for which S.NSA sold FG units - "not much" !
13:48 asciilifeform though to me still seems like an elementary failure in the original intent (i.e. nonrandom strategy but ideally indistinguishable from trng to folx w/out the key)
13:48 adlai although, the two "not much"s are quite different flavors of epsilon.
13:48 adlai perhaps mathematically equivalent to a grad student, although that is their problem, not mine.
13:50 adlai not quite; the hypothetical nonrandom strategy is not supposed to be indistinguishable from trng, since it is only profitable due to the quirks of its non-randomness; the indistinguishability is within specific timeframes, smaller than the resolution at which the profit is expected.
13:50 asciilifeform adlai: can you think of a reason why it'd have to necessarily be distinguishable to outsiders at any scale ?
13:51 adlai at the very minimum, your strategy is revealed to the centralized exchange; alternatively, to the cartel of locals who collude to compare notes about when you bought and sold how much, and in exchange for what.
13:52 * adlai did not write precisely
13:52 adlai they do not learn your strategy, they learn its results.
13:52 asciilifeform adlai: if there's a single, readily-identifiable 'you' at the exchange -- then surely.
13:52 adlai without any randomness whatsoever, these become identical; with trng, they become maximally different.
13:53 asciilifeform but this aint how serious biz worx. a $bil 'you' can 'be' 9000 distinct (to outsiders) shills.
13:53 adlai yes; I am describing the strawman of maximal opposition.
13:55 adlai this strawman might be irrelevant for an MP, although it is much more relevant for, e.g., a single MPEx customer, or a Burt Wagner (fellow who supposedly did all his trading with locals, for cash, and eventually got 'stung')
13:55 adlai (stung = not theft of funds; theft of liberty, by the angry sovereign)
13:57 * adlai is surprised at how the axiom of "exchange countertrades individual customers" is considered tinfoil-hat-level-crazyness by suit-wearing traders.
13:57 adlai at least, by the ones that I've encountered.
13:57 * adlai tries to avoid suits, both of the business and law variety!
13:58 asciilifeform adlai: apropos -- the inescapable scammer at any exchange, is the exchange . it has irresistible incentive to frontrun (i.e. show you numbers from the recent past, while for own use -- knows, of course, current ones ) and there is in fact no way to prove that it aint happening
13:58 adlai 'prove' is, afaic, a dirty word.
13:59 adlai you can convince yourself, beyond a reasonable doubt, that this does [or does not, accordingly,] happen, for specific counterparties.
13:59 asciilifeform in fiatolaverse where erryone is expected to eat 6 promises before breakfast erry morning -- of course 'dirty word'
14:00 adlai I mean "dirty word" in the sense that this conversation included FFA, just a few screenfulls ago, so 'prove' means much more than just "screenshot of my account; screenshot of friend's account; look, exchange is scammer!"
14:02 * adlai has looooong checklist of "things a centralized exchange should do, for me to consider being publicly associated with it as an employee, or worse, board member", and they are ~all laughable when compared with current 'industry' best practices.
14:03 adlai and all ~irrelevant, since the market is saturated, and nobody is exactly flooding me with offers to oversaturate it!
14:03 * adlai off to make pianoforte noise, while still legal to do so.
14:04 asciilifeform adlai: enjoy

~ 1 hours 6 minutes ~
15:21 verisimilitude Give me an update on that CL, adlai.
15:22 adlai fwiw, d_c appears at least one quantum of awareness more intelligent than m_p : her use of the possessive "TMSR's" could've made more than just eyes roll in #t
15:29 adlai unsigned, from the hip: one bitcent per file, for patches adding toplevel comments that explain the effects of each configurable parameter, and 'magic number', in the form immediately following that toplevel comment; for lack of a more magical man-month, this offer -- exclusive to verisimilitude -- is valid until greenwich noon, on november eighth .
15:30 * adlai wonders whether the recontextualization cortex is overly sharpened ?
15:32 adlai as for "what files, you have published no source!": since verisimilitude expressed an intent to publish the patches over gopher, I should probably publish the files in the same protocol, and this will take time; probably less than "until november eighth", much less.
15:40 adlai http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2020-09-26#1022337 << thank you; I must confess that the chaff of in-band rating updates actually never exceeded my "threshhold of pain", even when it constituted an entire screenfull of mircea's unpersonations
15:40 snsabot Logged on 2020-09-26 13:01:40 shinohai: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2020-09-26#1022303 <<< Poor adlai. I did finally get around to rating you a few months back, you grew on me after a while.
15:42 verisimilitude When I wrote of Gopher, adlai, I meant I was going to describe this job, after completion, with an article, which I'd publish over HTTP and Gopher.
15:43 verisimilitude So, that's distinct from giving the finished work over either protocol.
15:49 adlai if you are impatient, you can compute direct links to the mirrored copy of each file, starting from https://github.com/adlai/scalpl/raw/master/scalpl.asd
15:49 * adlai recommends patience; you may find that you have less work that way, and not in the "oh, he'll just delete files" sense of 'work'
15:51 adlai verisimilitude: if you want links with reasonably deterministic content, use https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adlai/scalpl/b913a8f048b5cd5386aead2c54339f210b45abf5/scalpl.asd as your starting point
15:52 adlai yes, it depends on a spitoonfull of quicklisp ; no, you should not need to drink this in order to understand the code that I have written, and note that I am not requiring anyone else to make changes to the code itself.
15:53 verisimilitude If I should wait to get all the code at once, I'll just wait.
15:54 verisimilitude So, I'll only be adding comments, and making no other changes, I take it.
15:55 adlai once upon a time, one could even convince github to `tar cf ...` an entire repo, within the first line of an https request. who knows what's possible today.
15:57 adlai you should both work one file at a time, and wait until I tell you whence to obtain kelvin-versioned copies.
15:58 adlai e.g., apparently the freshest shit on the hub is actually under 310b539 , rather than b913a8f , although you can't quite smell the difference.
15:59 * adlai has no idea what the cambrian handful of randos who have clicked "Fork", and the innumerate legions who `git clone ...` on a ~weekly basis, have published ; nobody ever actually made an adlai-visible update.
16:01 verisimilitude Alright; I'll unravel some of this and start tomorrow or so.
16:02 * adlai realizes that there is much 'dead code', even entire files of this ; consider them the equivalent of the SAT's "200 points for signing your name"
16:06 adlai http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2014-10-19#883490 << in other lolds
16:06 snsabot (trilema) 2014-10-19 mats_cd03: writing a trading bot is easily top five most trite and boring
16:06 adlai mats: you have right of first refusal, if verisimilitude barfs!
16:09 verisimilitude Define ``barf'' here.
16:12 adlai BARF ... verb, intransitive : to become so ill, typically as a direct result of food poisoning, that the subject is unable to continue performing useful work, and possibly even has to flush a toilet, exceed expected daily caloric intake, brush teeth, and get some fresh air; e.g., "verisimilitude: adlai: I read your code, and now I have a detached retina; keep your 0.12 BTC, you lazy dog, there is not
16:12 adlai enough coin in the chain for me to read one more toplevel form."
16:13 adlai barf rhymes with the transitive verb 'snarf', that typically means 'read much faster than you should'. caveat snarfor.
16:17 verisimilitude Oh, I shouldn't've any issue with that, although my patience for poor Lisp is low, my tolerance is high.
16:18 verisimilitude Getting paid for it will help, unlike when I mock SBCL's macroexpansions.
16:21 adlai as for comments to your articles: do you want complaints about omission of grammatical particles?
16:21 verisimilitude I prefer praise, but accept anything.
16:21 adlai aha
16:22 verisimilitude I focus on a style of writing correct English, although it may not be idiomatic. Reading my articles over Gopher makes a certain constraint I write with, due to boredom, apparenty.
16:23 verisimilitude So, do tell, adlai.
16:25 adlai in "Disillusionment with History", you omit the particle 'that' a few times; the omissions that I've encountered so far do not result in ambiguous sentences, so I'll only explicitly designate the first of these:
16:26 adlai your first paragraph ends, "Given what I know about history in this, I've no doubt whatsoever [that] the general world history is completely unreliable, resembling it.", where the bracketed word is the one that I consider omitted.
16:27 verisimilitude I believe what I wrote is correct English, although I'll always change my writing if I realize it's not.
16:27 adlai you should find your own voice, though; "correct English" is about as standardized as LISP 3.0
16:30 verisimilitude So few are concerned with it, it's still reasonably unique.
16:30 verisimilitude My ``voice'' is in my brevity, the constraints, common word choices I enjoy, etc.
16:31 adlai this article does read much more similarly to a transcription of an extemporaneous speech, than the ones I'd read when making that comment, and you should consider this praise !
16:31 snsabot Logged on 2020-09-12 11:50:00 adlai: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/asciilifeform/2020-09-03#1021003 << dunno what sort of 'decision' you expect! you seem qualified enough, as far as writing legible english prose goes; although I must remark, your phrasing sometimes makes me wonder whether you ever ~speak~ the damn thing, in addition to only reading and writing.
16:36 verisimilitude How nice. Also know, adlai, I perform writing with wildly different purposes, which reads wildly differently. I'm fond of alliteration, antanaclasis, it will be noticed I always treat contractions as their expansions, amongst other ways my writing differs from that of others.
16:36 verisimilitude I spent much more time on my most recent article, because it was my one hundredth.
16:40 * adlai recommends that verisimilitude avoid reading scalpl on an empty stomach; barfing is much less painful when you hock out chaff along with the 'gift'.
16:40 verisimilitude Also, what's the line column maximum I should use, adlai; I prefer one hundred.
16:46 adlai that may be reasonable for printed text, although in the specific case of the task in question, please avoid writing a comment wider than the form introduced.
~ 23 minutes ~
17:10 * adlai finds that wot.deedbot.org is still live, although this is probably orthogonal, if not downright skew, to !!wot
~ 46 minutes ~
17:56 adlai in other noose, I wonder what's a safe distance to flee, from a neighborhood where someone shouting "help", loudly enough for me to hear from several dozen meters of mean STP nitrogen away, elicits no response, other than her echoing herself; and the answer should probably be measured in passports, not km.
18:01 adlai what's even a reasonable band for response, since she seems undisputed queen of the airwaves... spam radio? catapulted notes? facebook?
18:02 * adlai files somewhere between 'SEP field' and 'nothing is in my backyard, for I use the metric system'

20:13 trinque adlai: wtf do you mean "still"?
20:14 trinque I don't fade out. when I shut something down, it'll be obvious.
20:18 trinque !!key trinque
20:19 trinque hmmmm
20:19 trinque oh, it was kicked from #ossasepia?
20:20 trinque mk
20:20 deedbot L1: 0, L2: 0 by 2 connections.
20:20 deedbot http://deedbot.org/help.html
20:20 deedbot http://wot.deedbot.org/FC66C0C5D98C42A1D4A98B6B42F9985AFAB953C4.asc
20:20 trinque sorry about that, unclogged.
20:24 adlai thank you, trinque ; as you probably figured out, "still" was due to uncertainty wrt how much of deedbot was wedged.
20:25 trinque that's what I get for not backreading first. I apologize.
20:25 trinque I'd fix the bug involved, but it appears it's currently irrelevant, lol
20:25 adlai deedbot does not answer in PM?
20:26 trinque asciilifeform: I will add a week's worth of deedbot for the inconvenience
20:26 trinque adlai: does for me. what are you trying to do?
20:26 * adlai tried !!wot in PM, although this is the kind of command that could plausibly be included only in subscribed channels
20:26 adlai trinque: "!!wot // Returns a pasted s-expression of the complete WoT database."
20:27 trinque I'll look. it's possible I considered that one too girthy at some point and removed
20:28 adlai right now, tbh, it is much less relevant, and I am mostly just checking this out of inertia from seeing it fail earlier; the existence of wot.deedbot.org was more than enough to answer my ephemeral curiosity earlier.
20:29 trinque cool, afaik wot.deedbot.org is still updating regularly
20:29 trinque lemme see what the cron interval is
20:29 trinque daily midnight UTC
20:31 trinque at any rate, I'll happily fix anything wrong with deedbot. atm I'm wrapping my gourd around luby and raptor coding, would like to end up with an item that fires udp or raw IP packets of either directly to friendly peers, in place of IRC.
20:32 trinque I wonder if asciilifeform has any experiments on his desk of same?
20:32 adlai glad to see that someone is studying 'useful work' !
20:39 trinque I'm curious what happens if the commons exists inside crypto, rather than wherever "here" is, is all.
20:39 trinque the whole world seems to have hit pause, so there's plenty of time to think.

20:59 adlai old conversation of tangential relevance, for anyone catching up half a decade after the fact; distinct from, although not unrelated to, the dust-band radio
20:59 snsabot (trilema) 2014-10-19 undata: asciilifeform: interesting chat concept on the front page of that site; is it yours?
~ 1 hours 19 minutes ~
22:19 gregorynyssa asciilifeform: given your previous comments about randomness and whitening, am I right in guessing that you consider this article to be dishonest propaganda?
