02:46 diana_coman shrysr: ugh, so auto-generator writes on your blog now? what's the point of having s.ragavan.co in there anyway if then it's 308g0wrjg33t398?
02:47 diana_coman moreover, the blog is a *record* of history; you *may* adnotate and add to it and even mark parts as obsolete/striked through/whatever but you may *not* unhappen them wtf
~ 3 hours 49 minutes ~
06:36 diana_coman lobbes, looking through your http://blog.lobbesblog.com/category/reporting/ posts there are 2 things that strike me: 1. some seem to just slip off without clarity as to what happened/what's your decision there (e.g. pizarro ads - did you hit a wall with it? did you postpone it (when/what)? did you abandon it? what exactly is it and from what specific causes?) 2. it doesn't seem all that clear/pointed anywhere: how do you choose your hopper items anyway?
~ 2 hours 33 minutes ~
09:09 shrysr diana_coman: ok!
09:13 diana_coman shrysr: what's your plan for the rest of this week as so far the *previous* Sunday weekly report is missing, your blog is ...changing shape(??) and messing about again, there was still nothing further after the "got sucked into office work suddenly and didn't even surface to say it but won't do that again"
09:13 diana_coman wtf is ghostwriter?
09:16 diana_coman shrysr: did you just delete the latest posts on your blog??
~ 1 hours 25 minutes ~
10:41 shrysr diana_coman: no - nothing is deleted -- i'm just trying out stuff on the server. The blog is changing shape yes. I want to implement https://mxb.dev/blog/using-webmentions-on-static-sites/ and stick to static sites. Using webmentions solves the issue of comments / trackbacks, and will enable me to post, as well as share notes in a much more convenient manner. No xmlrpc... just rsync and hugo and emacs and
10:41 shrysr figuring out how to enable web mentions without any 3rd party services. The plan for this week is to set this up. I'm capturing my notes and also have some progress summaries. Essentially - I have my notes and files setup such that something like this https://braindump.jethro.dev/ is easily possible. I want to share all my notes easily. My goal this week is to finish setting up the above, and by the end of
10:41 shrysr the week to publish updates on stuff done so far, and resume the pattern.
10:46 shrysr by implementing the above - you will have a better picture of my activities, and the process will no longer suffer lag between 'writing' and 'publishing'.
10:47 shrysr lol ghostwriter is the themes name.... all of that will change. dont worry.
10:48 shrysr rather it is already changed. Just not pushed on the server yet.
10:52 diana_coman shrysr: mk; but note that you're back to futzing with the blog so it better be indeed finished by this Sunday and really finished (i.e. you don't come back to it yet again in a few weeks time because x and y)
11:05 shrysr yes. I completely agree. I just *need* to set this up... i've already figured out most of it, and have documented quite a bit as well. I intend to finish before sunday... actually quite excited about the impact. I have wanted this particular kind of publishing setup since atleast a year... its noot like i havent tried before - but I cdnt see the solution. maybe now my fluency in handling the vps by ssh is
11:05 shrysr so much better now... or maybe my attitude has improved.... i dont know. I dismissed this webmention thingy as being too complex and went to wordpress..but turned out... it was not that complex, and actually kind of syncs with the things we talk about (from what i understand so far).
11:13 shrysr besides this >> i've also made a lot of progress with learning Docker... I was sort of partly into a docker course when i joined ossasepia. though I know it is a dependency - there are some strong possibilities when there is fluency in teh basics... i can whip up a 'standard' test environment to quickly test out something related to data science, or even a nginx container to serve something and so on... i
11:13 shrysr can even run a git server / pastebin etc via docker. I will be done with the course this week... but the point is i am fumbling a LOT less when i see a docker command. Unlike python - R does not really have a good 'package manager' or system. I have been concerned about the reproducibility of results.
11:20 shrysr i.e no virtualenv in R. Docker can alleviate this to a decent extent. Besides - using a docker image, i was able to easily access all the base R and ML libraries on the server... the conventional method of installation is very cumbersome.. it actually failed the last time because I did not have enough swap / RAM. Had no issues with the dockerised approach, though I did have to increase SWAP for some
11:20 shrysr libraries.

12:17 diana_coman well, it's a vps and therefore smoke and mirrors/nothing yours anyway so there's nothing *more* to going all the way with the postmodernism at least; hopefully you don't intend to actually *rely* on the whole thing as something in anyway solid or even still working in a year's time (or whenever one of the chairs in that pile you rely on for "quick" gets knocked over/taken out)
12:18 diana_coman but falling over is the best way of learning so go ahead, you still have a few days until this Sunday
~ 1 hours 10 minutes ~
13:28 shrysr not all smoke and mirrors, other than not owning the VPS! just a few strong chairs... i will write about it and you will see!!
~ 1 hours 59 minutes ~
15:27 diana-coman lolz, kk
15:27 diana-coman !q help
15:27 snsabot diana-coman: my valid commands are: seen, s, src, help, uptime
15:28 diana-coman and here: thank you asciilifeform !
15:29 asciilifeform np diana_coman
15:29 diana-coman !q uptime
15:29 snsabot diana-coman: time since my last reconnect : 0d 0h 17m
15:30 diana-coman !q s chairs
15:30 snsabot 1 results for "chairs" in #ossasepia
15:30 diana-coman asciilifeform: does it eat a txt log file (irssi-made)?
15:36 asciilifeform ok username thing fixed, i think
15:37 asciilifeform diana_coman: it eats phf's format.
15:37 asciilifeform 1s, will illustrate:
15:37 asciilifeform e.g.: 1926177;1564727032;mp_en_viaje;in the meantime, everyone's invited on trilema & other blogs.
15:38 asciilifeform first column is absolute index (per chan) ; then unix epochal time ; then speaker ; then payload
15:38 asciilifeform when 'action' (slash-me) speech, there is a * before name of speaker.
15:38 asciilifeform that's the whole format.
15:39 asciilifeform earlier i asked lobbes to bake a znc-format eater, i have a znc that only missed maybe half hr of log in entire year, could fill in e.g. #piz
15:39 asciilifeform ( though i only joined yours recently, so do not have full back archive for it , with which to fill )
15:41 asciilifeform diana_coman: i'ma genesis the logger, in day or so , when i'm satisfied that it and the bot aint catastrophically braindamaged.
15:41 asciilifeform then you can also stand up own logger, and not have to rely on mine or anyone else's
15:45 diana_coman looking forward to it
15:46 diana_coman by the sounds of it, at most I might need some awk to turn my local log in something the bot can eat so no big trouble there either
15:47 asciilifeform diana_coman almost certainly
