00:18 awt ok crtdaydreams we're peered
00:22 signpost crtdaydreams: load up blatta in a profiler and look at what it's spending time on, if you want to investigate sources of lag.
00:22 signpost I'd guess that since it's single-threaded getting a bunch of GETDATA from one or more peers might be one cause.

20:35 jonsykkel hi
~ 42 minutes ~
21:18 awt hi
21:18 phf nature abhors a vacuum, it fills it with idiocy. rip #asciilifeform
21:30 jonsykkel next level conversation, wher idiocy
21:38 phf jonsykkel: i don't actually intend for my statement to be a kind of flowery condemntation, i more than anything find the truth of it to be /curious/. i'm not otherwise willing to engage in a debate over what constitutes idiocy. and the curious part is that the void of the general shift of focus was not just left untouched,
21:38 phf was immediately filled by a person who was not previously engaged.
21:43 jonsykkel not asking for a debate, if im a idiot i want to know why
21:56 phf idiocy is not necessarily a result of individuals being idiots, it's the proverbial signal to noise ratio, which is often an explicit cultural group thing. sometimes you read something and decide that you've gained nothing from reading it, eventually, if it's a property of some particular source, reading it becomes a kind
21:56 phf of a chore, which is the last reasonable time to reflet on s/n, and possible disengage: "why am i reading this again?" etc. what prompted this reflection is in my opinion a completely 0/n exchange over relative merits of language families, which was of reddit tier "italians like pasta and germans like sausages" kind of stu
21:57 phf ff. vague, high level truisms, that are part of collective consensus that everyone knows, but which fall apart upon closer inspection.
22:02 phf there's nothing inherent lisp that makes it down-right, except for modern stylistic preference for bound contexts over mutation. common lisp being a maclisp derivative one can still freely write a close to single level state machine, just nobody does. (defun foo (&aux var var2) (setq var 2) (setq var2 (expt var 1024))) or
22:02 phf even go full cadr "system", which is written like (defvar var 1) (defvar var2) (defun foo () (setq var1 ...)). so you're kind of conflating culture, and style, and language properties, to express sentiments about things, that everyone knows already. algols being worse at bound contexts one is stuck with mostly mutation, ev
22:02 phf en if one wanted to write it in different style. a python written by functional programmer exhibit more down-right properties. etc. etc. etc.
22:06 asciilifeform hmm oddly enuff seeing phf as hearsay (via jonsykkel) nao
22:06 asciilifeform phf: didja swap ip ?
22:07 awt coming through my station rn I think
22:07 asciilifeform http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2022-07-21#1010175 << as old hands walk over to pestnet, #a will inevitably become a kind of kindergarten for n00bs / 'not previously engaged' folx, yes
22:07 bitbot Logged on 2022-07-21 21:38:18 phf[jonsykkel]: was immediately filled by a person who was not previously engaged.
22:08 phf asciilifeform: machine's been down for a couple of days, but i'm connected through awt at the moment. i switch back and forth between you and awt, whenever respective stations go down.
22:08 asciilifeform a
22:08 asciilifeform we're evidently both 'up' atm tho
22:09 asciilifeform so remains mystery wai hearsay
22:09 phf and in your log i'm phf[asciilifeform] :o
22:09 asciilifeform ( in principle if both 'up', and peered -- which asciilifeform / phf were -- oughta see immed. msg always )
22:09 asciilifeform nao ~that~ is odd
22:10 asciilifeform err, nope
22:10 asciilifeform ~that~ makes sense, atm dulapbot peered only w/ 1) asciilifeform 2) bitbot
22:10 asciilifeform 3) crawlerbot
22:10 phf ah ok, i thought you were giving dulapbot peerings to l1
22:11 awt perhaps phf means phf's machine has been down a few days, not asciilifeform's or awt's
22:11 phf awt yes, /my/ machine was down
22:11 * asciilifeform expects this kinda thing will evaporate when we have sect.5 mechanism
22:12 phf i should stop yoloing and get one of them ups's.. electric's been going down for 1-5 minutes each day for the past week
22:13 asciilifeform phf: can get surprisingly large ups for next to nuffin if yer willing to rebattery it. ( and if yer shithole has brownouts -- and where doesn't? -- be sure to get 'double-converting' type )
22:14 * asciilifeform recs 'liebert gxt4' with the expander chassis (and the nic)
22:14 phf yah, our common bolix friend taught me the way of "cheap ups that you rebattery", i'm just being lazy
22:15 * asciilifeform had it wired directly to $room in new pad
22:16 asciilifeform 1 'gxt4' + 1 expander is justenuff to cover time req'd to change oil in the generator, coincidentally
22:16 asciilifeform ( thing wants oil erry ~100hr , per vendor spec )
22:16 asciilifeform this at ~80% load
22:17 phf ah, i was about to ask
22:17 asciilifeform 'yer mileage may vary'
22:17 phf how much would you say is a spent liebert gxt4 for reference?
22:18 asciilifeform ~300 $ 'empty' iirc
22:18 asciilifeform had to get the rails elsewhere tho, for sumreason nobody ever includes'em
22:18 phf ty
22:18 asciilifeform np
22:19 asciilifeform the nic is a bit hard to find, there are several types that fit the socket but dun work correctly
22:19 asciilifeform it aint entirely essential tho, can talk to the thing via rs232
22:19 asciilifeform ( and it has a little screen with stats )
22:19 asciilifeform 'gxt2' ( asciilifeform had for ~7y ) was very similar but w/out screen, just had 4 '%' lamps
22:20 phf i have a generator rigged into switchboard, but i haven't bothered to make it automatic, mostly because when i do need it, i adjust the load accordingly first
22:20 asciilifeform is helpful if you occasionally leave the house and dun like to find yer irons reset when come back
22:20 * asciilifeform bought the place with the autoswitcher and gen already there
22:21 jonsykkel noise generators can only into signal generators by vatering them
22:21 phf ah yes the brahmin county sahib housing :>
22:21 asciilifeform phf: md.pg is 'brahim' nao, lol?
22:21 asciilifeform *brahmin
22:22 asciilifeform fwiw asciilifeform has nfi who had the thing installed & precisely why
22:22 asciilifeform seller had only dim idea re what it was
22:23 phf asciilifeform modern day brahmin is more like cloud people paper pushers, so yes. but come to think of it, i should've called it "babu housing", would've been sharper edge :p
22:23 asciilifeform fairnuff
22:24 asciilifeform ( tho asciilifeform moar often associates gensets w/ industrial wastelands , they aint esp. common around here in civilian house )
22:26 phf one of my coworkers likes flipping x million dollar houses, so i've seen all kinds of infrastructure. smart houses with cat6 cabling for everything and beautiful racking/fallback generators, more than once
22:26 * asciilifeform can picture
22:26 asciilifeform the kind w/ helipads etc lol
22:27 phf helipads are higher bracket :D
22:27 * asciilifeform not lives in 'oligarch palace' nor near any, but seen
22:28 phf these also come with abandoned "crypto" mining rigs. TWO houses that he bought and sold had mining rigs in the basement, still operational, left by owner
22:28 asciilifeform fortunately dun need to be oligarch to run cat6, or put in genset, etc
22:28 asciilifeform lol why would they leave'em
22:30 phf i suspect that they discover that their amateur yield barelly covers the cost of running the full set of their smart lights or whatever
22:30 * asciilifeform tip to folx running tubular conduit : dun ever count on being able to remove or move a cable after pulling it through
22:30 * asciilifeform tore 3 rather costly display<->fiber gizmos in half
22:35 phf what's this "cable housing" you speak of
22:36 asciilifeform phf: y'know, those grey plastic pipes you see at dc's & 'to code' industrial shitholes
22:37 asciilifeform notion being, you wanna run dozen cables, and not have to individually thread each through ceilings/floors & nail it
22:37 phf "code"? sounds like some kind of goberment fascism to me
22:38 asciilifeform ( additional n00b notion being 'hey i can pull'em out later if i need' but mnope )
22:38 phf http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2022-07-21#1010247 << https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drRzgkI6Qm8
22:38 bitbot Logged on 2022-07-21 22:37:47 phf[awt]: "code"? sounds like some kind of goberment fascism to me
22:39 asciilifeform phf: not all 'fire code' is idjit fascism, e.g. the edict against running hv intertangled w/ cat6 is born from bitter experience
22:40 asciilifeform granted you can do it, and gestapo won't come, simply yer insurance co will die of laffter when yer hut burns and they're asked to pay
22:41 * asciilifeform recalls a hilarious www of 'code, wat code' collection where e.g. extension cords run in walls, etc, sadly can't find
22:42 asciilifeform iirc had e.g. garden hoses run as substitute for actual plumbing ('hey i wanted a sink there') & similar own-goals
22:44 phf asciilifeform i jest. out here in the deplorables land housing, specifically the kind that's been last owned by grownups, who now want to move to old people's home, or small apartments or whatever, tends to have multiple easy access points to behind the drywall, so you can run your cabling wherever you want, without having
22:44 phf to mud the same access point every time, or try to pull through a 2" hole. it's a necessary property of having to e.g. treat the wood, or chase the squirels out or whatever
22:44 asciilifeform a++ if has this
22:45 * asciilifeform got 1 with 'hey, tile ceiling, easy' then only to find that the tiles, superficially 'dc style', are ~nailed~ in place, and crumble at slightest touch, lol
22:46 * asciilifeform hadn't the slightest suspicion that anyone would go through the bother of building the tile support grid to then ~nail~'em, lol
22:46 phf we've been idly looking at houses, and you can always see when "city folk's been here", bought for flipping or airbnb or "summer house", because that's the ones where you can't in fact go behind anything. "recently renovated" means some idiot has sealed a++ moisture gathering spots, because idiot
22:46 asciilifeform the house equiv. of 'sawdust in gearbox' in used car world aha
22:48 phf on the other hand if the house has "woodworking workshop" or similar on property, that means that there's not a single epxosed surface that you can't get to through some kind of vent, or cubby hole, or "storage closet" or crawlspace or whatever. "how will i fix her if the roof leaks???"
22:48 * asciilifeform had builders for coupla things he didn't feel like doing himself, and lolled when these always ask 'yer tenants..' etc. assumption seems to be that nobody would actually buy box to ~live in~
22:51 phf yeah, that's also the default assumption on part of agents. of course you're going to take this beautiful 100 acres and turn into housing lots, or take this beautiful victorin house and turn it into airbnb
22:52 phf *victorian
