14:29 awt Gonna try and relase 9973 today. Will include Prod support but no AddressCast.
14:29 awt Also, handle must now be supplied on the command line. This will allow stations to run and sync without a client connected.

15:05 phf http://logs.bitdash.io/asciilifeform/2022-08-10#1113093 << wb, but why not visit pest!
15:05 bitbot (asciilifeform) 2022-08-10 asciilifeform: sees n days of log, goes into 'whythefuq even bothered to log in' dfa state

15:25 signpost yeah I hit my dose limit on amphetamine chatter and turned off IRC.
15:25 signpost pest's stable enough and folks are welcome to join if they can find a single person willing to peer.
~ 1 hours 20 minutes ~
16:46 awt The 9973 release is going to be a little weird because of the version checking bug in all versions down to 9974. In 9974 and up messages with a version < 0xFC are discarded.
16:46 awt * pest version, that is
16:48 awt Since 9973 will set the pest version to 0xFA, No one on 9974 or higher will see messages from stations running 9973. You can of course manually set the pest version to whatever you want in message.py.
16:55 phf that seems like it'll result in a period of “halp my messages don't go through!!!1”
16:56 awt phf: yes. Not sure how to avoid this.
16:58 phf leave the version as is, and bump it once bulk of people are running on a client that doesn't have a broken version checker
16:58 awt hmm yeah ok
16:59 phf version doesn't reflect capabilities anyway, as per http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2022-08-10#1011100 so probably can “nail version field down” once fully compliant with some kind of slice

17:01 phf and to further make this point, probably best to lean in the direction of network stability, over compliance, at this stage of pest development
17:02 awt Ok disregard above re: versions. I'll just release 9973 with pest version 0xFC (what it's currently at).
17:09 awt For anyone wondering why to update to 9973, btw, the new functionality is basically that if you move and get covid'd, or otherwise go offline for a while, when you get back on, you'll automatically be brought up to date on missed messages.
17:10 awt Without having to receive a Broadcast or DM first.

18:37 PeterL signpost: so I had a few moments, was thinking about lubyism/online codes, is http://trinque.org/2022/02/19/online-codes-in-python-wip/ the latest python version of your thing or did you improve upon that?

20:25 signpost nice awt, will roll that out now
20:26 signpost in other news, I restricted the front page of http://wot.deedbot.org/ to ratings given in the last 5yrs, and now it looks about how one'd expect
20:34 signpost awt: looks like a nice cleanup on message parsing eh?
20:34 signpost neato
20:38 signpost up with 9973
20:38 awt signpost: yes indeed!
20:40 awt signpost: received your Prod message.
20:42 PeterL signpost: on wot page, it looks like there are two names up above the top of my screen?
20:43 PeterL oh, wait, when I zoomed the page they came into view
20:43 signpost yeah, I need to unfuck the CSS a bit yet.
20:50 awt note to asciilifeform: with 9973 you should be able to set any numerical knobs to float values without crashing your station now
