asciilifeform: For my block explorer I plan to use your logotron python code as a basis for my irc bot that is used to query the information in said block explorer. The block explorer is using sqlite3, and afaik your logotron uses postgres, which I will have to adjust for. In any case, do you recommend I fork off of aug2020_errata ? |
| 13:01 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: aha, i rec to take the latest. btw you can easily adjust it to use sqlite if you need, there's a py lib |
| 13:06 |
whaack |
yes, I figured it won't be a problem, since I already use py's sqlite3 library for the block explorer itself |
| 13:07 |
whaack |
tbh, I wanted to use the lisp ircbot, but I figured since the explorer is already in python itself it makes no sense to add on another language. also, I couldn't get lisp + sqlite working together nicely, there's a library for it, but it seemed like it was going to be an adventure getting that library up and running on both my machine and the gentoo one I rent from you |
| 13:08 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: fwiw sbcl + quicklisp known to work on my gentoos. |
| 13:09 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: there's a different headache though, there, afaik no one ever baked 100% proper reconnect logic for the lisp ircism |
| |

| 13:10 |
asciilifeform |
(can't imagine it'd take moar than a weekend to backport from my py example. but would have to do it) |
| 13:11 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: i rec to collaborate w/ billmg, who is baking a very related thing based on watchglass. |
| |
↖ |
| 13:13 |
whaack |
asciilifeform: I'm pretty certain I understand the problem with the irc reconnect logic as I've posted the solution for it before, and mentioned what needs to be added here http://thimbron.com/2020/11/ircbot-alt-genesis/#comment-231, I honestly wanted to use the lisp ircbot to show an example of working reconnect logic, but alas looks like I'll have to do that separately. |

asciilifeform: I can press up to navbar_date_auto.kv.vpatch , but not up to searchpg_oldlinks and consequently not up to aug2020_errata. I can't figure out why. I checked the signatures via gpg --verify, they work, and checked the file names, and everything seems like it should be lined up. |
| 13:36 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: which vtron? and can post outputs plz? |
| 13:36 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: ftr i test-press on mine before releasing a patch. |
| 13:37 |
whaack |
v.pl by the bitcoin foundation version 99991 |
| 13:40 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: what happens when you attempt to press ? (and does it show in flow?) |
| 13:40 |
whaack |
asciilifeform: it doesn't show in flow, that is the problem |
| 13:42 |
whaack |
I noticed that the link names on your blog for the 2 patches i'm having trouble with don't have the ".kv." in them, but the actual files they link to do however have the .kv. in their names, so I don't think that's the problem but it may be a hint |
| 13:43 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: again, these press on my (properly kv) py vtron. |
| 13:45 |
asciilifeform |
i'ma fix the links tho, ty |
| 13:51 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: actually there may be sumthing wrong w/ these last 2 re: the manifest diff. will examine & regrind if necessary. |
| 13:52 |
whaack |
asciilifeform: thanks I'll keep looking into myself.. |
| 14:03 |
whaack |
asciilifeform: it looks like the chain of manifest hashes is indeed broken with the last 2 |
| 14:03 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: indeed. will fix and post reground patches later today. |
| 14:03 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: ty for reporting. |
| 14:04 |
asciilifeform |
for readers : item has been on my www for yr+, whaack is 1st to notice broken patch. |

~ 36 minutes ~ |
| 14:40 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: fixed!! |
| 14:40 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: it was the searchpg_oldlinks patch, inadvertently was generated with old vdiff. (its successor -- was proper.) |
| 14:40 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: reground, signed, uploaded. (only the hashes differ.) |
| 14:41 |
asciilifeform |
lemme know when tested plz. |
| 14:46 |
asciilifeform |
whaack: ty for the find, credited now in the history. |
| 14:49 |

asciilifeform still has nfi how this slipped by his own test process. but nao fixed.. |
| 14:50 |
whaack |
asciilifeform: tyvm! |

gregorynyssa |
asciilifeform: so is 99991 the latest version of V? |
| 15:00 |
asciilifeform |
gregorynyssa: of mod6's? afaik yes |
| 15:02 |
gregorynyssa |
asciilifeform: do you use a different implementation? I would love to see it, if it is public. |
| 15:10 |
gregorynyssa |
I thought you were the author of the Python version. maybe I was wrong. |
| 15:16 |
gregorynyssa |
I wanted to write a version of V in Tcl, but the reference-implementation of that language was not very well engineered. |
| 15:16 |
gregorynyssa |
I still consider the language to have a few merits, though. |
| 15:16 |
asciilifeform |
gregorynyssa: i wrote the original vtron; and still use phf's updated (for keccakism) version of it |
| 15:17 |
gregorynyssa |
asciilifeform: thanks for clarifying. that is nice to hear. |
| 15:17 |
asciilifeform |
the latter is available on his old www. |
| 15:18 |

asciilifeform really oughta set up a unified mirror of whole thing. |
| 15:19 |
gregorynyssa |
maybe write an RFC of the data-format? |
| 15:20 |
asciilifeform |
gregorynyssa: considered to do this, but loathe to make old gpg part of the spec. but my replacement for it not yet ready. |
| 15:21 |
asciilifeform |
at any rate not clear for whom to write rfc. erryone who gives a damn, already knows how v works. |

one day when the Chinese programmer-community is decoupled from the American one, this might become a thing. |
| 15:24 |
asciilifeform |
gregorynyssa: everything i've ever experienced from cn seemed to point in exactly opposite direction. |
| 15:24 |
asciilifeform |
rather like ru orcs, they are mired to the gills in microshit and don't even 'see' it, as fish does not see water |
| 15:25 |
asciilifeform |
('microshit culture' aint simply about the braindamaged os, it has 'over 9000' various comorbidities, e.g. 'cut&paste culture' which results in ocean of incomprehensible shitware no matter what the participants do) |
| 15:25 |
gregorynyssa |
Chinese programmer-community has been dominated by a caste of Chinese citizens possessing American degrees. |
| 15:26 |
gregorynyssa |
they are losing power though. public opinion is turning against them. political factors disfavor them. |
| 15:27 |
* |
asciilifeform does not know details of this, cannot comment. but does know that no matter what kind of political change, will not result in creating a sovereign intellectual culture (even in 1 domain, of softs) from empty air. |
| 15:30 |
gregorynyssa |
we are not that many decades away from the death of former intellectual cultures. there is still hope IMO. |
