03:59 mircea_popescu good idea.
04:00 mircea_popescu and in other news, got a shipment of sprats. old riga, including pronouncements as to how kosher they are, in hebrew on the side.
04:00 mircea_popescu made me think of odessa.

04:03 mircea_popescu phf impressive dance you got there.
04:12 diana_coman hey, old riga sprats are great here too!

08:51 diana_coman ave1, nice! I'll add it to my list to give it a spin
08:52 asciilifeform ave1: this is neat

09:02 ave1 asciilifeform, diana_coman: I'm now looking into arm 64bit, but so far seems to be bit more involved. I've not found a way to directly couple an ada varable to a register.
09:02 asciilifeform ave1: do you mean that inline asm is actually broken on arm64 gnat ? or simply not found how to make it go
09:02 asciilifeform ( if broken, will have to be fixed, wtf )
09:02 ave1 no not broken
09:03 ave1 in x86, I can specify a constraint
09:03 ave1 this variable needs to be in the aex register etc
09:03 asciilifeform right, how can even have inline asmism without this
09:04 ave1 arm has a lot more registers, but no constraints for these
09:04 ave1 instead gcc assumes you use "C",
09:04 ave1 in C you can specify the register for a variable at definition time
09:05 ave1 like so: register long x0 __asm__("x0")
09:05 asciilifeform ave1: depending on just how sad gcc turns out to be, may have to put the asm in a separate linkable .o and invoke it as if it were c lib
09:06 ave1 I've not found equivalent in gnat docs or source
09:06 asciilifeform ave1: what you describe sounds like catastrophic bug in gcc
09:07 ave1 This is in gnat (i.e. for gcc C it works fine)
09:07 asciilifeform it'll have to be fixed.
09:07 ave1 first work around is to have a bunch of mov instructions before the syscall
09:08 asciilifeform ave1: elaborate ?
09:08 ave1 In the inline assembly you specify that the variable can be in a global (constraint == "g")
09:09 ave1 then in the inline assembly code, you do something like: mov %0, %%x0
↖
09:09 asciilifeform ugh
09:09 ave1 to get the first argument into the x0 registers
09:09 ave1 yes ugh
09:09 asciilifeform and how wouldja get a result ~out~ of register and return from function
09:10 ave1 I use it now for the recvfrom / sendto calls for x86_64
09:10 ave1 same recipe only mov arguments changed
09:11 ave1 syscalls only have one outgoing parameter, the errorcode (all other outs are through pointers)
09:14 asciilifeform in the particular example of udp, a coupla extra MOV's won't make a diff speedwise (vs the latency of the nic) but this sorta thing will be ugly once we start writing kernel mods in ada / moving off unix entirely
09:15 asciilifeform ave1: see if you can find what is the coad in gnat that exists on x64 but not arm64, re register pinning
09:15 ave1 I've looked into the "constraints" code support in GCC (for x64), but I'm still in the spaghetti phase
09:16 ave1 To be clear, the register pinning is in gcc
09:16 asciilifeform i can't speak for other folx, but i dun expect to need this particularly soon, so there is time to unravel the puzzler
09:16 ave1 In C there are 2 ways: (a) in the asm instruction, (b) in the register variable definition
09:16 asciilifeform ( but eventually i do want to write e.g., asmtronic MUL, for arm64 ffa )
09:17 ave1 in GNAT ther is one way: the asm instruction
09:17 ave1 unfortunately the asm instruction has a limited version of the pinning
09:17 asciilifeform well there is also a 'put all asmism in a standalone .S and feed it to the linker' , for completeness
09:17 asciilifeform i.e. same thing i did with the C routines
09:17 ave1 yes, but then you'll have to do stack gymnastics etc
09:18 asciilifeform correct
09:18 asciilifeform i suspect it'll result in tighter coad, tho, in principle
09:19 asciilifeform the big q is whether it'll inline ( which for my application is absolutely vital )
09:21 ave1 I'll see if I can patch gcc and add an extra constraint to the asm statement
09:21 asciilifeform when i started ffa, i did not plan to bake any asm speedups at all. but there's 2 reasons to do it, eventually : one is that on e.g. x86/x64, getting the upper half of a word-sized multiplication, without asm, takes ~four~ MULs plus a buncha additions : http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/hypertext/ch11/w_mul__adb.htm#95_14
↖
09:22 asciilifeform the other is that on iron such as certain ARM ( i have not yet investigated ~which~ ) , and ppc, and certain others, there does not even exist a constant-time MUL, and one is stuck with some variant of http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/hypertext/ch11/w_mul__adb.htm#33_13 -- which really begs to be asmed, is riotously inefficient
09:24 asciilifeform ( there is also the fact that such a simple thing as addition with carry takes not 1 ADD instruction, but an entire http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/hypertext/ch11/word_ops__adb.htm#36_13 orchestra )
09:24 ave1 Yes, I remember
09:25 asciilifeform so a proper asmification potentially yields 5-10x speedup 'for phree' , all else being equal
↖
09:25 ave1 http://www.loper-os.org/pub/ffa/hypertext/ch11/w_mul__adb.htm#33_13, this is the egyptian mul?
09:25 asciilifeform ave1: correct, it is a special narrowed egyptian mul, word-sized
09:26 asciilifeform ( see ch. 9 discussion re why, http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2186 )
09:26 asciilifeform ( scroll to the bloody leg illustration )
09:28 asciilifeform nao, this being said, my objective is still to give acceptably-performing, re erryday ops, ffa ~without asm~. but asmism will make a serious diff re e.g. key generation, make minutes instead of day+.
09:29 asciilifeform if one wants to generate keys on battery power, asm is not escapable.

09:43 phf asciilifeform: i've posted a v.pl patch http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-31#1867871 ( archived http://archive.is/ZJUMM ), unfortunately since v.pl doesn't have its own vtree, doing it properly requires a bunch of extra work
↖
09:43 a111 Logged on 2018-10-31 03:21 phf: mod6: just fyi i was able to press eucrypt using v.pl by patching it to use vtools's `ksum' for hashing instead of sha512sum and `vpatch' for pressing instead of gnu. http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/PZ4hX/?raw=true
09:43 asciilifeform btw http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-13#1871763 is somewhat misleading, let's correct : this is the case on ALL known archs, gcc is retarded and does not supply a ready-baked inline word x word mul function

09:48 phf right
09:49 phf v.py unfortunately requires a bunch of work (unrelated to yesterday's issue), it was very much a poc, and i suspect you and i are the only people who actively use(d) it
09:49 asciilifeform quite possibly
09:50 asciilifeform it defo should not be considered 'the' vtron.
09:51 asciilifeform ( has ~nonexistent error handling; and misbehaves on oddly shaped trees, this is plentifully described in the l0gz )
09:52 asciilifeform once we have a One Troo scripting language ( possibly some variant of spyked's gc-less ada lisp.. ) i'd like to write a vtron in that ( supposing nobody else beats me to it )
09:52 asciilifeform really would like to throw out python, perl, bash, etc eventually.

12:12 mircea_popescu do you realise girls here are ~so fucking moronic~ they will hang out with their mothers IN THEIR TWENTIES ?
12:12 asciilifeform i thought that was argentines
12:12 mircea_popescu every civilised female has the same reaction, utter disbelief, "omfg i'd have been too ashamed to do this at 15"
12:12 mircea_popescu asciilifeform no, it's latino "culture" so to speak, tho it has entirely nothing to do with culture, much like "they fuck mud with sticks all day" isn't "african industry", it's just african nothing.
12:13 asciilifeform indeed, physiological thrashing, like beheaded chicken's
12:14 asciilifeform ( relatedly, i vaguely recall from some old lit that the turks amused themselves by cauterizing beheadee's stump to see if he can be made to chicken, i.e. not bleed out right off, but dun recall source or whether it worked )
12:14 mircea_popescu i make a lot of noise about dungeons and chains and whips and etc ; but it is a kind of a society game. i am not prepared, neither mentally nor for that matter materially, to ~actually~ apply all that. because yes, the convertor exists, kidnap among the moronic 3bn, but i mean literally, not play-pretendingly, self-delivered "kidnaps", and then torture them into being enslaved orcs rather than plain orcs.
12:14 mircea_popescu fact of the matter is i need 1800s style southern us slaves like i need genital warts.
12:15 asciilifeform i dun see how it could possibly be worth the effort, lacking cotton for'em to pick
12:15 mircea_popescu and even then
12:15 asciilifeform iirc even there they simply threw the less-compliant 80% into the sea
12:15 asciilifeform to get something to work with
12:16 mircea_popescu (a matter little discussed in the abundant "literature" was the implicit brain drain southern economy imposed on southern us. ie, intelligent boys in the newyork-london sphere migrated rather towards new york (hence all the jews, at the time monopolists of intelligence, hence the hatred but different line all that) ; whereas intelligent kids on the st louis-paris line migrated rather to paris. because nothing the fuck to do i

12:17 asciilifeform fundamental problem with agriculture. if you aint a herbivore, being involved in just about any direct capacity makes you wanna eat yer pistol
12:17 mircea_popescu precisely. but it is not ~with agriculture~. it's with... the people involved in agriculture!
12:18 mircea_popescu the reason "all good things flow to the city" is, and for 3k years has been, "i'd rather hang out with thieves than with farmers holy shit you lot are moronic. really, go to bed at 5pm ?"
12:20 mircea_popescu it's not agriculture per se. it's not the land, it's that the land both fosters and nurtures a certain mindset among those troding upon it. too much "all is well" and way the fuck too much "nothing could ever change" and so on. hence, "my mom's just as good a master as could ever be had!" and hence http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-12#1871537 : in rural environs kids too dumb to find their own fucking holes on their own fucking
12:20 a111 Logged on 2018-11-12 16:44 asciilifeform: even on asciilifeform's home planet, good chunk of marriages were 'soft-arranged' -- i.e. 'comrade colonel, you have a bachelor son, i have a ripe daughter' 'comrade lt colonel, let's box'em in a room, wainot'
12:20 mircea_popescu power.
12:21 asciilifeform as i understand , stupidity is occupational hazard of agro-anyffing, and percolates insidiously , like gamma ray
12:21 mircea_popescu and hence "Pangloss was professor of metaphysico-theologico-cosmolo-nigology. He proved admirably that there is no effect without a cause, and that, in this best of all possible worlds, the Baron's castle was the most magnificent of castles, and his lady the best of all possible Baronesses."
12:21 asciilifeform 'even had glass in windows!11'
12:23 mircea_popescu asciilifeform not really. the romans were agricultural folk, just as much as the alwa or the indians making wootz steel.
12:23 asciilifeform didn't they staff it mostly with zeks tho
12:23 asciilifeform ( under overseers earning commission )
12:24 mircea_popescu not originally. the might as well as the power of the republic was ~entirely~ agricultural. cincinnatus is not famous for "turning down the purple", but for ~turning down the purple to go back to ploughing."!
12:24 mircea_popescu all latin classicity bemoans the loss of agricultural tradition, their hightly regarded source of intelligence and manliness.
↖
12:25 asciilifeform i'll admit that i credit 'cincinnatus plowing with own 2 hands' approx as much as i credit king arthur
12:25 asciilifeform difficult to picture .
12:25 mircea_popescu no, i believe the story is factual. man was out ploughing, with own two hands, senate legati came to talk to him, asked him to go put his toga on.
12:26 mircea_popescu sounds exactly like 1700s pennsylvania. and the reason it does is because it is.
12:26 asciilifeform there's a reason he's a quasi-mythical figure, tho, like diogen
12:26 mircea_popescu i dunno what yo umean by quasi. am i quasi-mythical figure ?
12:26 asciilifeform 100 y from nao ? prolly
12:26 mircea_popescu nonsense.
12:26 asciilifeform 'really , he whipped'em himself ? did he also refine own copper '
12:27 mircea_popescu diogenes pushed his tub, cincinnatus ploughed his field, i... i dunno, took weird pictures of myself put them on trilema.
12:27 mircea_popescu people do things, that's why there's a history in the first place.
12:27 asciilifeform indeed consists of record of folx who could actually be arsed to do things..
12:27 mircea_popescu history doesn't exist because grandchildren wanked it in the bed at night ; history exists because grandfathers fucked grandmothers.
12:28 mircea_popescu your whole argument is essentially seinfeld's "oh, my parents having sex... i dunno... i haven't seen it... as far as i know they could maybe be just really, REALLY good friends!"
12:28 asciilifeform lol
12:28 mircea_popescu "it's possible" right ? except no, it fucking ain't.
12:29 asciilifeform my point was that cincinnatus was 'typical farmer' like mircea_popescu is 'typical photographer'
12:29 asciilifeform ( pro turtle-flipper!111 )
12:30 mircea_popescu but it wasn't proposed he's "typical" or "normal" or in any way reduce his person to some kind of http://trilema.com/2016/the-herd-of-independent-minds-or-has-the-avantgarde-its-own-mass-culture/#selection-87.551-87.706 falsity. when i call my slave "a slave" i do not by any possible read propose that "she has some kind of slave nature" like nail polish or something.
12:31 asciilifeform then sure
12:31 mircea_popescu it was proposed he was a fucking farmer, in the proper and only sense, like fucking carlyle. farming is a thing BECAUSE cincinnatus farfmed, and bdsm is a thing because MP bdsm's.
12:31 mircea_popescu that there's a bunch of moronic kids over at hot topic in the mall doing "the industry" of things men do... what the fuck of it ?
12:31 asciilifeform i do suspect that http://btcbase.org/log/2018-11-13#1871847 was 'admiration from a distance' rather than factual tho. sorta like marie antoinette's milkmaid career.

12:33 asciilifeform there's definitely factual substance to the archetype of 'farmer ready to pick up weapon and defend his not-needing-the-city-for-anyffing', hence the festivities in '20s ru re tambov rebellion ( where the reds pretty much brought back ivan iv's methods, incl. mass impalement ) to put down

12:43 mircea_popescu anyway, but the important point can't be overstated enough. it's not a matter of terra-ad-limine, whereby the county is from this limit to that limit to that other limit, and as long as you're not past the limits therefore you're inside and thereby anjie is "in tech" (hey, you can't prove she's out, right ? therefore she;s in ?) and also thereby http://trilema.com/2012/generatia-fara/#selection-145.61-145.72 stands as a party

12:44 mircea_popescu it's a matter of columnae lucum, whereby ~THIS~, and this and only this and this only is the epitome, and everyone around is closer or further to that epitome, and at the outskirts it becomes unclear if there's even a relation at all or not.
12:45 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: do you recall ancient trilema piece , about some derp working in (iirc) google, where you had 'if industry were a rifle, he'd be the fouling on the barrel' ?
12:46 asciilifeform 'city' seems to inescapably produce huge qty of such 'fouling'. i find interesting the q of what is 'carnot efficiency' of city, what if anyffing worx to keep down the waste product ( of the most toxic type -- bipedal )
12:46 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the whole fucking point of http://trilema.com/2012/anonimity-or-the-urban-versus-rural-dispute/ (especially as coupled with http://trilema.com/2015/strategy-for-the-antisocial-struggle/ ) is that the world has substantially changed, and there is ~no further win~ to be had from cityism, and a WHOLE lot of cost to be eaten. which is ~the fucking point~ of http://trilema.com/2017/the-world-has-changed/ : given the
12:46 mircea_popescu change, objective and unyielding, of the wheel coming cycle and the up being now down and the shoe on the other foot, "the elders" sat and thought for a half second and decided between boys and walls they'd rather have the walls.
12:47 mircea_popescu consequently, boys gotta be boys lest they break down the walls. and that was that for anglo culture.
12:48 mircea_popescu i'm sorry, i mean
12:48 mircea_popescu consequently, boys gotta be bois lest they break down the walls. and that was that for anglo culture.
12:49 asciilifeform asciilifeform's q wasn't 'whether 4th reich is ripe for the visigoths', seems pretty clear that it is. but whether the entire cycle, where manchu horsemen , 'free and manly' , invade, then turn into fat and idjit empress cixi, is escapable or not
12:50 asciilifeform i guess could rewrite the eqn into the q of whether people are actually smarter than prikoke the pig, or no
12:50 mircea_popescu i and my slaves might laugh at stupid local girlies, "20 in her mom's tow" and at stupid 50yos who are trying to ~now~ be slutty, as if time somehow waited for them to take the 35 years they "needed" to achieve 35 months' worth of intellectual maturation. but as troglodyte as http://trilema.com/2017/the-day-of-failure-trilemma/#selection-423.0-423.517 readily marks all of latino morons in the eyes of any euro whore i ever kne
12:50 mircea_popescu w, nevertheless, NEVERTHELESS!!!! they are way ahead of the anglotarded chicks who http://trilema.com/2018/an-examination-of-conflict/ ie try to enforce "the elders". oh, john, daddy said "sit down, sit down, sit down you're rocking the boat", we'd better sit down!!!
12:51 mircea_popescu so in a very specific, and very purple and meaty sense, the moronic lartinos are way the fuck ahead of the moronic anglos.
12:53 asciilifeform seems that mircea_popescu still prefers the anglo chix as raw material in refinery tho
12:53 mircea_popescu (and this, for the record, is also why i think very little of eg pete_dushenski's private committments : http://trilema.com/2015/very-bad-things/#selection-37.0-37.32 female misbehaviour exists ~specifically~ and strictly and only because they're covering up for this fundamental "between boys and walls daddy chose walls, don't upset him".
12:53 asciilifeform so evidently not too ahead
12:54 mircea_popescu asciilifeform yes. this is the fucking problem, if faced with the choice of the crashed bmw or the new toyota i'd still buy and fix the crashed bmw.
12:54 asciilifeform makessense.
12:54 mircea_popescu because i get it, toyota "new from factory", but it's a stupid fucking factory i want little do to with.
12:55 asciilifeform do 'new toyota' come with win10 nao, or notyet
12:55 mircea_popescu i'd rather have bayernische body hammered back into an approximation of its original, genotypic shape, than mexican body as its mom made it.
12:55 mircea_popescu nfi, but i'm not even discussing that. i am discussing THE LINE
12:55 mircea_popescu the problem of art is that the freehand line is the hardest thing i nthe world. put pen to paper, and draw it, and see.
12:55 asciilifeform right. but iirc e.g. new porche is ~= newtoyota.
12:56 mircea_popescu "but mp, why do you think these squigglies are worth millions, there's not even color on them"
12:56 mircea_popescu "fuck you, i'll burn your fambly in da vinci's oven to heat him while he draws another"
12:57 mircea_popescu there is such a thing as an incorrect line -- proven by the fact that the overwhelmingly vast majority of them are.
12:57 mircea_popescu some guys draw correct lines, that's all there is to it.
12:57 asciilifeform seems that we're already in 'late rome' in re 'best tech lives at antique shop', just about across the board
12:58 mircea_popescu either that or 1492 and cinquecento about to turn in
12:58 mircea_popescu an obscure man named something or the other sorta-landed on the shore of crypto a few years ago.
12:58 asciilifeform wheel -- turns.
12:59 mircea_popescu funnily enough, a) he thought he had found "the west indies" and b) he landed on some skirting islands, never found mainland.
12:59 mircea_popescu wheel -- turns -- ALWAYS THE SAME WAY. exept sameness visible only retrospectively.
13:00 asciilifeform asciilifeform ~decade ago went to a traditional american festivity, gigantic flea market where small arms bought and sold in open air. found it interesting that the most valuable wares were not even antiques in the usual sense, of century+, but 1970s-80s : apparently the 'peak' of the tech, modern calibers and 0 zamac.
13:01 mircea_popescu aha.
13:01 asciilifeform ( to be fair, not only zamac in this story, but peculiarity of gringostani politics where 'pre-ban' xyz is a thing )
13:02 asciilifeform all this in re 'crashed bmw better than new toyota' files.
13:03 asciilifeform rusty 'tommy', apparently also better than brand-new ???.
13:03 asciilifeform they come with pedigree papers, too, like picasso ( with the diff that typically if you buy mispedigreed picasso, you dun get jailed for 20y )
13:04 mircea_popescu lots of that. but really it comes down to http://trilema.com/2015/what-was-the-lomax-any-why-was-it-there-and-who-could-have-lifted-it-to-take-it-somewhere/#selection-67.0-67.13 versus https://www.amore.ng/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Leonardo-Da-Vinci-Jesus-YouTube.jpg and guess what the fuck wins.
13:04 mircea_popescu the fucking line. pen on a paper.
13:05 mircea_popescu and, amusingly, everyone's now a "designer", that design's so fucking dead... do you ever look at classical soviet oh of courese you do, the buran discussion right ? that item had a line to it, and you can tell from a glance it was made by humans.
13:06 asciilifeform damn thing certainly had 'line'. like mig9.
13:06 asciilifeform felt just about like you could get on the thing and fly.
13:06 mircea_popescu i visited this jewish doctor here, and he looked at my retinas, with this old set he had. i asked him how old it is, and he said "maybe thirty years". "yeah, thirty years counting from the 90s ?"
13:07 mircea_popescu cuz you can fucking tell, a little lantern with mirrors in a case.
13:07 asciilifeform prettu sure '90s was when you could last get one without winblowz on it, yes
13:08 asciilifeform asciilifeform worked in places where 1980s e.g. mass spectrometer, and not because no budget for 1+$mil to replace it, but because nobody wants the 'upgrade' with win vista
13:08 asciilifeform folx cling to the old, working gear for dear life
13:09 mircea_popescu cuz it is dear life.
13:09 mircea_popescu or at any rate the only available approximation thereof.
13:10 asciilifeform i recall thread with BingoBoingo re old iron electric drill. i see'em at flea markets routinely, nobody buys, and then the idjits go to 'home despot' shop and load up on chinesium that breaks in half after 17 uses
13:10 asciilifeform whereas 1940s vintage item still runs 100%
13:11 mircea_popescu the reason "roman art treasure lie forgotten" was specifically that what the fuck is german peasant to do with it lmao.
13:11 asciilifeform quite obvious re 'roman art', but less so re workaday obj like drill
13:11 asciilifeform i'd naively think that the iron drill would be quite exciting find for current-day carpenter
13:11 mircea_popescu roman art WAS workaday obj lol
13:12 mircea_popescu asciilifeform and aqueduct also exciting for medieval town ?
13:12 asciilifeform slightly diff item, aqueduct requires maintenance to some degree
13:12 asciilifeform but i see the point
13:12 mircea_popescu everything requires maintenance. that's the difference of art : man made, requires maintenance.
13:13 asciilifeform troo
13:13 mircea_popescu (art here is used in the classical, and only proper sense. same cognate as "artificial", not "artistic". there is no such fucking thing as "artistic" not anymore than there's "tech industry" or "nation of africa" -- broken abstractions borne of "perceived need" of the ignorant)

14:21 mircea_popescu just a bunch of inept niggers. ran away from missouri century ago, recreated missouri in michigan.
14:21 asciilifeform if mircea_popescu says -- i believe
14:22 asciilifeform ( i think of chicago as a kind of massive open air бомжатник , from own experiences there )
14:22 mircea_popescu and i don't mean, "stop feeding", i mean chinese troops marching in new york, tearing down statue of liberty to replace with huge penis, and forcing everyone to do by-hand electronics picking for the rest of their miserable woirtheless lives.
14:22 mircea_popescu respectively, russians going over to paris, taking all the huysmans building and movingthem in voronetz reservation/park.

14:27 asciilifeform they do ~whatever they like, have ~99% of modern industry inside border, and look at 'west' like we look at chimp in zoo

17:27 asciilifeform phf: what iron was it ?
17:27 asciilifeform i never achieved this feat
17:27 asciilifeform ( and not from lack of try )
17:30 phf i had a 300mhz amd that i brought from russia when i moved here in the 90s, but it finally gave out couple of years ago. i suspect booting templeos was one of the last things i did with it..

17:34 asciilifeform 'safely dead', so i guess makes sense, turned into harmless lolcat.
