10:43 awt We need online codes working so we can start sharing our uncucked LLM warez
10:45 awt We can then train them on the logs and resurrect various historical republicans as bots.
10:54 asciilifeform lol
10:54 * asciilifeform distinctly recalls proposing an mpbot ( while the latter was alive ) but can't atm find in l0g
10:55 asciilifeform a, here.
10:55 dulapbot (trilema) 2016-09-14 asciilifeform: a slightly clever mpbot would be guided by what is actually said to it (grep the from:mircea_popescu lines for words or even fragments of the query and return shannonization of immediately subsequent from: s)
10:58 awt asciilifeform: I've had some success querying chat gpt about trilema entries. Its immitation of his style was laughable though.
11:00 * asciilifeform 'got enuff' shannonizer in 1990s; and not esp. impressed with the latest refinements to the concept fwiw
11:00 * asciilifeform can see how these entertain folx who lived in a 'different 1990s' tho
11:01 awt asciilifeform: I have found in most cases chat gpt at this point is far superior to googling for many programming tasks/errors.
11:01 awt "How can I do x in y"
11:01 asciilifeform awt: can easily picture (google has gone to utter shit)
11:12 unpx I've been trying to understand this fancy computation they advertise in MAGMA but it still doesn't convince me a lot
11:15 unpx awt, I'll wait to see it able to answer why that solution was chosen -- hoping it is not biased on ``it's fast''
~ 15 minutes ~
11:30 awt unpx: is this AI related? Not seeing the connection.
11:31 unpx No, was just commenting what I've read. It is related to my math proj

11:59 asciilifeform unpx: interesting piece, btw, asciilifeform read some yrs ago when was digging into algebratrons
~ 1 hours 32 minutes ~
13:32 awt https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?graph_id=248494 <- M2 % change
13:33 asciilifeform awt: loox like was redefined in '20 ?
13:36 awt asciilifeform: yes. Looks like now missing IRA and Keogh balances. Dunno what Keogh balances are.
13:37 awt However, is percent change, not total amount.
13:37 awt So whatever the measure, continuously down only for some time.
13:39 awt Possible that "Keogh" and IRA going up I guess. Mine isn't.
13:40 awt Keogh is some kind of retirement plan for self-employed workers.
13:48 asciilifeform ( ftr, asciilifeform's pov re reich stats. )
13:49 dulapbot (asciilifeform) 2022-03-25 asciilifeform: the interesting, psychologically, aspect of the mats thread is the difficulty, for some folx, of making the jump to 'reich stats likely bogus, all i can rely on is personal experience of self and those around me'
13:49 dulapbot (asciilifeform) 2021-12-29 asciilifeform: finds this experience surreal, in the old sovok nobody one'd be likely to meet entertained belief in Official stats
13:49 dulapbot (asciilifeform) 2021-12-29 asciilifeform: the quickest way to see what reich stats are worth is to look at own wallet. asciilifeform's expenses in past 2y up considerably farther from the Official 6% or what was it.
13:49 awt wen LLM ascii bot
13:50 asciilifeform well for jobs like this, not even need mega-bot, but simply l0g search.
13:51 awt "summarize asciilifeform's views on x" nevertheless would be nice
13:51 asciilifeform awt: if you bake such a bot, dun hesitate to plug it in. oughta be at least good for some lulz
13:53 asciilifeform ( and moar, for thread-completeness )
13:53 dulapbot (asciilifeform) 2021-12-29 asciilifeform: 'avg. temperature in the hospital is only up 0.1 degree' 'but errybody is dying of typhus' 'so ok, we weigh the temp of the morgue occupants too, explain why shouldn't'
13:53 dulapbot (asciilifeform) 2021-12-29 asciilifeform: 'let's include meth belt in house price index' yea
13:56 asciilifeform http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2023-04-26#1025630 << post some of these, for lulz, if still got'em
13:56 bitbot Logged on 2023-04-26 10:58:19 awt: asciilifeform: I've had some success querying chat gpt about trilema entries. Its immitation of his style was laughable though.
13:57 awt d0xx3d: http://paste.deedbot.org/?id=DwXg
13:57 asciilifeform awt: ty
13:57 asciilifeform awt: didja have to manually feed it the l0gz ? ( or already ate'em ? )
13:58 awt Already eaten
13:58 asciilifeform not even contains any obv howlers ( unlike the previous 1 iirc , where 'key developer of monero' or wat was it )
14:02 awt Yes. Using a new version.
14:05 asciilifeform 'Republic of Bitcoin (formerly the Most Serene Republic of Bitcoin)' << wonder what that came out of
14:06 * asciilifeform wonders whether bot still generates the infamous great-looking lolcats but with odd #s of legs
14:09 asciilifeform what asciilifeform got outta the phree gpt demo using above prompt
14:11 asciilifeform same bot re: mp
~ 31 minutes ~
14:42 asciilifeform in wholly unrelated lulz, asciilifeform learned only nao that it is apparently entirely impossible to generate a unique function name using standard c macro.
14:43 asciilifeform ( and even using nonstandard '__COUNTER__' apparently impossible to generate one that can be used twice+ )
14:43 asciilifeform but if anyone knows otherwise -- plox to write in.
~ 41 minutes ~
15:25 phf maybe using __FILE__ __LINE__ ?
15:29 phf or just __LINE__, won't be random but will be unique. main issue is that because everything is eval time, you can't capture __LINE__ in a macro, gotta register that function in a call from the same line
15:35 phf 􏿽do i have an evil solution for you, you put X(foo) {...} in bar.c, and then in foo.c you #define X(a) int a##__LINE__() #include "bar.c" and elsewhere you do #define X register(a##__LINE__); #include "bar.c". because X(...) calls are all in the same lines in bar.c you're going
15:35 phf 􏿽to get stable names across the different macro invocations
15:46 phf http://okturing.com/src/15646/body

16:48 asciilifeform wb phf !
16:50 asciilifeform http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2023-04-26#1025676 << possibly asciilifeform not read sufficiently carefully, but seems as if wouldn't work from inside anuther macro (which is where it was needed)
16:50 bitbot Logged on 2023-04-26 15:35:26 phf[jonsykkel|deedbot|awt]: 􏿽do i have an evil solution for you, you put X(foo) {...} in bar.c, and then in foo.c you #define X(a) int a##__LINE__() #include "bar.c" and elsewhere you do #define X register(a##__LINE__); #include "bar.c". because X(...) calls are all in the same lines in bar.c you're going
16:52 asciilifeform ( full disclosure, what asciilifeform had was a lame thing where repl cmds defined macrologically, and wanted to abolish 'CMD' but still able to have e.g. '?' command which aint kosher in identifiers, so thought 'replace 'NAME' w/ gensym ?' but no trivial way to do it )
16:55 asciilifeform ( what it currently loox like in use ftr )
16:58 asciilifeform as reader might've guessed, the exact value of 'repl_command_##NAME' -- unimportant, so long as globally unique under all known compiler & 'alignments of planets'
16:59 * asciilifeform was rather surprised, after ~3 decades of suffering with cpp, that there's 0 clean traditional way to make this
17:01 asciilifeform ...all the dross that's been added to cpp standard, but this -- nowhere to be found
17:04 asciilifeform http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2023-04-26#1025674 << was asciilifeform's 1st thought, but found no way to transform '__FILE__' into an identifier-kosher string in anyffin resembling a portable way
17:04 bitbot Logged on 2023-04-26 15:25:10 phf[4]: maybe using __FILE__ __LINE__ ?
17:06 asciilifeform ( and, interestingly, both __FILE__ and __LINE__ appear to choke clion's macroexpander thing )
17:09 phf http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2023-04-26#1025680 << well you gotta study the example in http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2023-04-26#1025678 to understand how to solve
17:09 bitbot Logged on 2023-04-26 16:50:49 asciilifeform[4]: http://logs.bitdash.io/pest/2023-04-26#1025676 << possibly asciilifeform not read sufficiently carefully, but seems as if wouldn't work from inside anuther macro (which is where it was needed)

17:10 phf the idea is that you include the same file twice, with different definition of the macro
17:13 asciilifeform ugh
17:17 asciilifeform if one could #define inside a #define (spoiler: mnope) this could be made edible. but as it is, lol
17:17 phf well, it /works/, but i didn't promise it'll be elegant
17:18 asciilifeform rright and a++ for 'obf c contest' but asciilifeform's orig. atrocity was strictly so to increase readability..
17:20 phf in general though c requires some level of dry rejection. dry is gay anyway. void querycmd(char *q) ...; elsewhere registercmd("?", querycmd);
17:21 asciilifeform well it's a cpp atrocity, so was able to banish the 'register' thing by baking an indexator thing
17:22 phf i hear cpp11 or whatever has lambdas also
17:22 asciilifeform ( used for knobs & repl cmds strictly )
17:22 asciilifeform orig. wrote with lambdas, but cpp's lambdas behave peculiarly scopewise
17:23 phf ah
17:24 asciilifeform ( aaand, also wanted to be able to place knobs/cmds in arbitrary compilation units )
17:24 asciilifeform ... rather than a central spittoon as seen damn near errywhere in similar proggies
17:26 phf too much bookkeeping for my taste these days :>
17:29 * asciilifeform 'damaged by lisp', developed long ago severe allergy to spurious entanglement b/w diff parts of proggy, and, in particular, anyffin resembling repetition ('table of knobs' a la trb etc)
17:30 asciilifeform let the fucking machine make the tables.
17:31 phf i'm not longer convinced of that principle. i mean we're of similar roots in this respect, but smh "machine making tables" turns into "programmer writes extra code"
17:31 asciilifeform per asciilifeform's lights, so long as it's '1nce per lifetime extra coad' -- a++
17:33 phf i don't understand that metric
17:33 asciilifeform i.e. the ancient dream of reusable parts
17:34 asciilifeform ( as illustrated there , nao if only the thing didn't require pointless but mandatory unique class name to be given )
17:34 bitbot Logged on 2023-04-26 17:21:22 asciilifeform[4]: well it's a cpp atrocity, so was able to banish the 'register' thing by baking an indexator thing
17:36 asciilifeform ^ allows a subclass of arbitrary class to be instantiated at runtime given associated name string

18:10 phf is this for your pest wunderwafffen?
~ 1 hours 38 minutes ~
19:48 asciilifeform phf: it was in asciilifeform's attempt at a pestron yea
19:49 * asciilifeform barely touched subj for several months, recently dusted off
19:51 * asciilifeform got guism, 'console', uniturdism, and basic sqlite glue working; what remains -- well, the rest, lol
