01:14 lobbes ^^ reads, but there is a ~1 min lag from when line is spit out until it hits lobbesbot's db (logs and bot are on separate boxen, and the logs feed the bot).
01:14 lobbes On my todo list is prop up an instance of the tmsr logbot on my pizarro rockchip and redo the #eulora logs to be fed from that. I built the #eulora log-o-tron back in 2015, and back then I had just typed 'ls' for the first time in my life, so I wager I can make the whole process much saner this time around.
01:14 mircea_popescu sure thing.

13:00 phf http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-03#1820367 << there isn't one, there is a peculiar bug that seems to only manifest in my lispworks dev environment. things actually work on production, though the patch page is 20mb
13:00 a111 Logged on 2018-06-03 04:11 mircea_popescu: phf, what's the limit ?
13:00 mircea_popescu hm
13:01 phf i'm not sure how practical that makes patch page though, it definitely doesn't open on my x60. i could perhaps introduce some split mode, where patch page only lists the hunk filenames, and you need to click on hunk to see the contents
13:01 asciilifeform ( in unrelated entomo-lulz : https://irclog.whitequark.org/linux-rockchip/2018-06-04#22258989 )
13:07 asciilifeform in other funnies: the preface in http://btcinfo.sdf.org/blog/trb-build-instructions.html .
13:08 mircea_popescu phf, part of the reason i keep having things sit on other things is to find out what the fuck we need to do.
13:08 mircea_popescu is the idea here that code should never be that long, basically ?
13:09 asciilifeform ^
13:11 asciilifeform ( seealso, http://btcbase.org/log/2018-04-06#1793733 )
13:11 a111 Logged on 2018-04-06 21:12 asciilifeform: a 500k-loc ( ignoring even for a moment the far greater heft of 'modern' wonders ) c/cpp proggy is, for all intents and purposes, closed-source, even if every line is published, because it is quite impossible for anyone -- even author -- to get a proper grip on its behaviour space
13:11 phf right, that was the original idea, as evangelized by ascii. btcbase patch viewer is designed with that idea in mind
13:13 phf i can obviously fix btcbase to be more useful (i.e. continue to aid the patch exploration) in cases where a patch is big, but in general a 9mb patch seems to go against the whole fits in head
13:14 ben_vulpes asciilifeform: amazing self depth-plumbing butthurt
13:15 mircea_popescu well technically a 9mb genesis.
13:15 asciilifeform phf: trb is, what, 800kB, and already imho 'weighs' ~10+ yrs worth of study to fully grasp
13:15 mircea_popescu see, it rests in between "here's a blob of strange, 100mb long" and "here's a sane genesis"
13:16 mircea_popescu and we do have some such blobs in the process, so far.
13:16 * asciilifeform disagrees that any proggy's src has any business whatsoever weighing 1MB, much less 9MB
13:16 mircea_popescu legacy items, alf.
13:16 asciilifeform when approaching this mass, really oughta start cutting into orthogonal subsystems. and if you can't cut, the design is broken.
13:17 mircea_popescu how are they to be digested, if we deliberately make the tools we use unable to grab them ?
13:17 mircea_popescu first step of any digestion is, gotta stuff it in the gullet. enzymes afterwards.
13:17 mircea_popescu the alternative process (as displayed by some spiders etc) is very limited.
13:17 asciilifeform all else being equal, tool that laughs at arbitrary masses of payload is theoretically better ( if folx can be trusted to 'keep it in their pants' and not to use it as excuse for bloat )
13:17 asciilifeform but history of pc , suggests grimly that they cannot
13:18 mircea_popescu this'd be my reasoning. just because you shouldn't doesn't mean you should couldn't.
13:18 asciilifeform fast comp -- breeds bloat, apparently.
13:20 asciilifeform nao, if phf can make his vtron handle 'arbitrary' (say, up to avail. ram) masses, and without losing anything, moar power to him. but in practice something is usually sacrificed, in the name of speed/efficiency, is the worrisome bit.
13:20 asciilifeform ( as described by naggum & elsewhere, in the 'bathtub' piece )
13:20 phf mp-wp is 162093 loc, 6062 of which are containered gif/png. so it's not even that base64 blobs are adding to weight. the codebase is massive
13:22 asciilifeform trb is, what, 25k-loc.
13:22 phf yeap
13:23 asciilifeform ( not counting, naturally, openssl, bdb, etc )
13:26 mircea_popescu phf, it also has the advantage that it works, and VERY well. which to my knowledge is not true of any other piece of web software (alf's complaints notwithstanding, phuctor emergent codebase may qualify)
13:26 asciilifeform i fully believe it
13:27 mircea_popescu will you go as far as to say that writing a general purpose scriptable webatron (apache) and a "separate" (notrly) db system (mysql) is the wrong solution, and one should just write his blog software in c directly ?
13:27 asciilifeform ( funnily enuff, asciilifeform has ~own~ 'mp-wp' , made from ~same vintage of wp, that does admittedly only half of what mircea_popescu's does ( i dun have the spam filtration ) )
13:27 mircea_popescu because it is not directly evident to me what portion of the 162k loc (granted -- insane count) is due to the tower of chairs arrangement.
13:28 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, this is quite what i'm saying, a web publishing platform we will want, and phf is in a prime posityion to appreciate the gargantuan task of "make it from prime principles", i think.
13:28 mircea_popescu considering his blog still doesn't win any beauty contests mine participates in.
13:29 mircea_popescu to be clear, i'm not for a second disputing that such piles of lines of "code" are a scandal and an outrage before god. but i wish to know what we're to do.
13:29 asciilifeform actually i suspect that this is one of those items that will be very short and sweet , when made from first principles under a future http://btcbase.org/log/2018-03-26#1789682 system
13:29 a111 Logged on 2018-03-26 14:28 asciilifeform: recall the gc discussion . 'scripting lang is one where progy dun live long enuff to need gc'
13:29 phf mircea_popescu: oh i'm not suggesting there's folly here, i'm a) thinking of how to better slice the beast and b) pointing out that it's not even a container issue
13:29 mircea_popescu yeah.
13:30 mircea_popescu anyway, there's also the 2nd order effect, whereby by interacting with heretics you find out stuff like "hey, i have a memory leak"
13:30 mircea_popescu or w/e it is that you have in there.
13:31 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, in theory this is a theory, but in practice his comments are still weird looking.
13:32 asciilifeform junkyard wars (e.g. trb, mp-wp) where one is stuck welding a tank from 5 zaporozhets and 3 lada carcasses, because that's what there is to work with, inevitably are heavyweight
13:32 asciilifeform this is not a susprise, i think.
13:32 asciilifeform *surprise
13:32 asciilifeform to anyone.
13:33 mircea_popescu the other problem still remains : if it is not republican doctrine to have a scriptable webatron with a separable but not separate dbsystem, then ~what is it~.
13:34 phf just to clarify my blog is mp-wp, i just bastardized the theme to the point of "improvements" being worse than original
13:34 mircea_popescu and if it is, then what's wrong with php, and delineated specifically. or what, we're gonna use lua ?
13:34 mircea_popescu phf, oh really ? i thought you had a lisp competitor.
13:34 asciilifeform iirc we had a thread, where asciilifeform outlined a proper scripting lang.
13:35 mircea_popescu there's no such thing as a proper scripting lang in general, though. that's why it even is ~a~ scripting lang, because it's by the task
13:35 asciilifeform ( tldr : something like 'tinyscheme', but in heapless ada, and with deliberately no gc )
13:35 mircea_popescu and here we're looking at a html pre-processor scripting lang
13:35 asciilifeform asciilifeform in particular is looking to ditch python, bash, etc box of rusty nails.
13:35 mircea_popescu and we don't even have a formally declared tmsr-html spec.
13:35 mircea_popescu fuck me if i'm including all the dumbass css bs.
13:35 phf i think someone else here had a lisp implementation, but that one lacked comments entirely
13:35 asciilifeform html replacement is orthogonal, imho, problem.
13:35 mircea_popescu phf, possibly spyked's.
13:36 mircea_popescu asciilifeform, it is.
13:36 asciilifeform spyked .
13:36 mircea_popescu i'm just saying, it's not ~just~ mp-wp that's an eyesore here. in truth it's our whole relationship to the www that's at issue.
13:37 asciilifeform this -- is true. scripting lang, however, has a place in life outside of wwwism -- for throwaway experiments, e.g. http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2018-April/000296.html , and similar
13:37 mircea_popescu and i don't believe www is dead tech. it may need some changes, but as such, the convenience is there, girls reading logs on gym exercise machine mounted tablets.
13:37 asciilifeform sure.
13:37 asciilifeform no moar than vt100 is 'dead tech'
13:37 mircea_popescu quite.
13:37 mircea_popescu it's too simple to die.
13:38 asciilifeform i use it every day, even tho i have never touched original vt.
13:38 mircea_popescu right.
13:38 asciilifeform ( funnily enuff, the pain of 'modern' html, exactly mirrors the pain of vt 'enhanced' with 'terminal control' gnarl, 35 yrs ago )
13:39 mircea_popescu yes!
13:39 mircea_popescu the same idiots always enhance cunt the same god damned way, a good dose of the clap.
13:39 asciilifeform imho, part of smart engineering is to know not to do this. 'jet engine welded to zaporozhets'.
13:39 mircea_popescu or to quote the unknown russian, "you have disease of capitalist"
13:39 mircea_popescu "you fuck it, it only gets heavy, and you still not hit largest side of barn"
13:42 asciilifeform disease of konsoomer.
13:43 asciilifeform ( tho, -- iirc it was orlol -- had a pertinent piece, on the unremovable disincentive for market players against selling durable, quality items that never need replacement or 'upgrade' etc )
13:45 asciilifeform 'i sold indestructible, perfect $tool to all $n possible buyers, nao what do i eat'
13:46 mircea_popescu man... this is like proposing fucking a slavegirl well is a bad idea, what'll she need you for if you do.
13:47 asciilifeform some activities have this problem, others not ( restauranteurs do not have to contend with a 'i dun need to eat, i already ate in 2011' )
13:49 mircea_popescu from experience, the more solid code delivered, the more demand for further solid code.
13:49 mircea_popescu what, i should write the same god damned thing every six months, like those idiots doing "cms solutions" for "Web development" "tech firms" ?
13:49 mircea_popescu ty, but i'd much rather COMPLETE THINGS.
13:50 asciilifeform again in some subfields there is a famine of solid code, in others -- not ( the payware c compiler people, microshit aside, mostly have starved, afaik )
13:50 mircea_popescu so they're fucking done. permanently. and there's nothing left for http://trilema.com/2017/damele-dameleee/#selection-97.1-52.45 posterity.
13:52 asciilifeform the 'web dev' nonsense where 'same code written every 6mo' is symptom of a poorly-defined problem to begin with; sorta like wound sutures that reopen
13:52 asciilifeform not merely of poor programming.
13:56 mircea_popescu it's symptom of "every biosack has will to live" nonsense. what, they're all gonna be entrepreneurs. pshaw.
13:57 asciilifeform iirc mircea_popescu had an article where 'the carpenter said, i will stand here and hold the wall up, for small fee..'
