12:07 asciilifeform jurov: the 200ms figure was taken from actual measurement of an ancient ups i owned several years ago. i can easily believe 4ms with solid-state relays, in modern unit. still does nothing against small transients.
12:08 asciilifeform jurov: 'online' ups was costly last i priced it (for 1kW+. the tiny things are worthless in my setup) and rather inefficient (~60%)
12:08 asciilifeform jurov: plus, ferroresonant monster gets 25+ years of lifetime, vs. the laughable 3 or 4 modern semiconductor-based ups is good for.
12:09 jurov no issue with that :)

12:13 nubbins` had a consultation with the vet, chose a nice model
12:13 nubbins` then later telephoned the vet to discuss the particulars
12:13 nubbins` vet says "je préfère parler en français au téléphone"
12:14 nubbins` p responds "ah, d'accord" and continues discussion

12:22 nubbins` palm, meet face
12:22 nubbins` consider that as far as feature implementation goes, apple is relatively conservative
12:26 nubbins` they'll allow bitcoin apps if/when the point is reached where idiots can use it without saying "???"
12:26 mod6 lol
12:26 mod6 oops
12:27 jurov !up Sebastan
12:27 fluffypony nubbins`: yeah, I think they may also want to avoid the issue they've had with kids spending thousands on in-app purchases

12:31 fluffypony yep
12:32 fluffypony I'm sure that at some point in the future they'll let you fund your iTunes account with Bitcoin
12:32 fluffypony and PayPal will let you fund your PayPal account with Bitcoin
12:32 fluffypony but atm I'm not convinced either party particularly cares about all the ranting on /r/bitcoin
12:33 nubbins` nobody cares about that
12:33 nubbins` "hey guise i'm the first hand-blown glass satanist dildo shop in the WORLD to accept bitcoin!"
12:36 kakobrekla hi
12:36 kakobrekla i broke assbot?
12:37 fluffypony lol nubbins`
12:37 kakobrekla possibly, i uninstalled half of the server by mistake.
12:37 fluffypony also if I see another post that is by an American about how Africa is ready for Bitcoin I'm going to stab them in the face
12:39 nubbins` africa unite!

12:40 fluffypony plus bandwidth is free
12:40 nubbins` nod
12:40 fluffypony and all 3G
12:40 fluffypony so it's ideal for Bitcoin
12:40 nubbins` yeah, it's not just voice + sms
12:43 fluffypony yeah
12:44 fluffypony plus everyone is so familiar with mobile apps that it just makes sense
12:44 fluffypony nobody uses cash here anyway
12:44 nubbins` nah

13:11 assbot Clojure Web Security | LispCast
13:12 benkay other major points are "don't allow users to see each others data!"
13:12 benkay which i guess some people don't think about?
13:13 Mats_cd03 the frameworks don't look ready for production
13:13 benkay dunno about frameworks man
13:13 Mats_cd03 jvm issues aside
13:13 pankkake it doesn't seem especially related to clojure
13:13 benkay big old .45 that always wants to point at your foot
13:14 benkay jvm issues are unless i miss my read (which is possible and do correct me plz) along the lines of 'don't let people have access to your box and don't run java as a consumer'
13:14 xmj speaking about frameworks
13:14 xmj anyone here ever worked with haskell webframeworks?
13:15 kakobrekla i hate frameworks so much i made my own.
13:15 kakobrekla not with haskell though.
13:15 pankkake lol, I always have a bad feeling of "own frameworks"
13:16 kakobrekla bitbet uses it
13:16 pankkake many companies say that, when the reality is that their code is YOLO style
13:16 benkay YOYO
13:16 kakobrekla yeah prolly
13:16 benkay you only YOYO once
13:17 pankkake I haven't tried haskell at all but it's definitively on my list of things to try out - perhaps the only one actually
13:17 benkay i want types
13:17 benkay is it a satoshi? is it a btc? WHO KNOWS
13:17 pankkake many frameworks are more of a hassle to use than nothing, for sure
13:17 xmj right after learning C.
13:17 mike_c kakobrekla: what is bitbet written in?
13:17 Apocalyptic PHP obv
13:17 kakobrekla mhm
13:18 Naphex ZF for php was more then decent
13:18 kakobrekla anyway the fw that i made was first tested on smpake.com service and was made with btc in mind
13:19 kakobrekla later on it was also used on bb.
13:19 mike_c well, it was good enough for mtgox i guess.
13:20 kakobrekla whats mpex written in? same.
13:21 Naphex mike_c: i doubt ZF had anything to do with mtgox vulns
13:21 Naphex but that custom php wallet software, jesus :]
13:21 kakobrekla but right now im trying to implement some panacea models in newlisp
13:22 mike_c Naphex: mtgox would have managed to suck in any language. i just feel bad for good programmers who somehow have ended up using php. probably the same as asciilifeform feels for all of us that don't use lisp.
13:23 Naphex c'mon now lisp aint that cool

13:27 Naphex my huge problem with lisp its readability
13:27 benkay i wrote a function last night that runs a job, every now and again
13:27 benkay the signature looks like (process-deposits every-ten-minutes)
13:28 jurov and the body is (if (leap year) give bonus)
13:28 mike_c i used to agree about the readability, but i have recently seen some elegant looking lisp programs. and i used to think python was unreadable. so who knows.
13:28 Naphex i don't doubt they exist
13:28 kakobrekla jurov :D
13:29 Naphex but picturing a 8-man dev team working on a project in lisp
13:29 Naphex for lets say 3 years, enough that every programmer there is bored shitless
13:29 asciilifeform mike_c: lisp (of whatever variety) without emacs (or quite similar auto-indenting editor) is unthinkable.
13:29 mike_c i have heard you say that (and filed it away for my future research)

13:31 asciilifeform Apocalyptic: did some ocaml ages ago. not my cup of tea.
13:32 asciilifeform mike_c: it wouldn't be too far off the mark to say that i like common lisp because 'slime' is possible for it, rather than vice-versa.

13:44 diametric asciilifeform: I've been meaning to ask you on your opinion of Go
13:45 asciilifeform diametric: every so often, folks invent another 'ocaml' - compiled language with 'strong typing.' you lose the REPL - you lose me.
13:45 diametric the people backing it are what have me intrigued
13:46 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 5700 @ 0.00087976 = 5.0146 BTC [+] {2}
13:46 asciilifeform 'go' is funded by the same bozos who spend $billion on a company making GUI thermostats.
13:46 diametric asciilifeform: it's also the brain child of Ken Thompson and Rob Pike
13:47 diametric and go does have a repl
13:47 asciilifeform yeah, the folks responsible for 35 years of static language well past sell by date
13:47 asciilifeform it is important to understand what a proper repl consists of. i.e. a bash loop that repeatedly calls a compiler is not a genuine repl.
13:48 asciilifeform you ought to be able to do 'who-calls' and other useful operations that need the machine to retain semantics of the original code
13:53 asciilifeform people who design baroque contraptions (ml, haskell, ocaml, go - tradition) for 'smarter compiler' - that ends up grinding the original semantics of a program into incomprehensible soup - as if god came and said to mortals to use pdp-11 forever - are solving the wrong problem.
13:54 asciilifeform it is possible - and has been done - to build cpu which executes high-level language more or less directly. but, given as i have an entire blog about this, i will omit the details here.
13:54 mod6 asciilifeform uses only opcodez
13:55 assbot [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 13100 @ 0.00087982 = 11.5256 BTC [+]
13:55 asciilifeform even on a very minimal machine, with a few kb of memory, it is possible to use a language like Forth - which preserves the semantics of the code, and has genuine repl.
13:56 asciilifeform the distinction between source and object code is an evil thing, rather like leaded gasoline - ought to have gone away a generation ago.

14:05 asciilifeform (e.g. power station on every street corner, wall wiring as thick as your arm, etc)
14:05 asciilifeform this was a very narrow escape.
14:06 benkay capital requirements got in the way.
14:06 asciilifeform situation was entirely analogous to the current one re: computing - in that the inferior technical solution would have been embraced readily by equipment makers, for whom the waste is a bonanza

14:13 jurov why can't you just change rpi into lisp machine instead of all that complaining?
14:13 asciilifeform jurov: python, ruby, etc. are, arguably, cheap 'soviet style' copies of common lisp. as admitted by, for example, matsumoto (author of ruby)

14:16 jurov then naturally live with it whole life

14:20 kakobrekla those people invest in solar freaking roadways not lisp
14:20 asciilifeform i've had this discussion with more people than i can count. and the only ones who 'grokked' the basic idea, were the ones who woke up to the realization that much of what we consider to be the 'inevitable' brokenness of computing infrastructure (ubiquitous bugs, e.g. buffer overflows, irreducible complexity of os, compilers) is anything but.

14:21 jurov yes it is inevitable if people who know better won't do anything for kids because they want 100% architectural purity without compromises
14:21 mike_c srsly. he'd be unreadable without their editing

14:22 mircea_popescu i think he might have said nigger or something unsavoury like that at some point
14:23 asciilifeform kickstarter works - when it works - for 'i want to make a bicycle drive shaft from hastalloy.' and other well-defined engineering problems.
14:23 jurov what prevented OLPC to ship with lisp? "o noes trabant"
14:23 asciilifeform for 'basic research' - not so much.
14:23 asciilifeform jurov: olpc was a microshaft brainwashing project (admitted as much! hence why it shipped with an x86 turd instead of a cheaper risc cpu)
14:24 mircea_popescu pankkake: is it down in USD terms? << for "2nd ipo" definitely. seems just about even for original ipo tho
14:24 asciilifeform get the african kids started on winblows.
14:24 jurov so you admit microsoft can do it, yet you cannot
14:25 asciilifeform jurov: microshaft can do many things that i cannot.
14:25 asciilifeform 'The Ogre does what ogres can, Deeds quite impossible for Man,...'
14:25 mircea_popescu mike_c: pankkake: ipo USD/share: $0.33, 2po: $0.345, current: $0.227 << o wow srsly ? for some reason i had it in my head they started at a 25cents
14:26 mike_c those were actually off by a factor of 10, but they all were so it doesn't really matter.
14:27 mike_c ipo = 0.0055 BTC * 600 = $3.30

14:30 mircea_popescu Up until recently it was practically impossible to become embroiled into any sort of dealing with the subgroup, their ownership being strictly assumed and their lives strictly subsumed by the corporations competent at dealing with the human cattle : fastfood providers, supermarkets, the government.

14:30 mircea_popescu Bitcoin suddenly opened the gate. It is a poisonous offering. You are grossly unequipped to interact straight with the refuse of Western society. Accepting investors with fortunes under a million dollars or whatever the limit was placed for US citizens may make sense.

14:47 fluffypony closures, generics, namespaces, the usual
14:48 artifexd Are you trolling, fluffypony?
14:48 fluffypony artifexd: no serious - they start it off with "we thought about how we could have Objective C but without the problems of C"
14:48 fluffypony or something
14:49 artifexd Is it cross platform?
14:49 asciilifeform lol
14:49 Apocalyptic <popeofdope> ooohh

14:50 artifexd Wow. Just... wow.
14:50 fluffypony they had to do it at some stage, they were getting jealous of .NET

14:52 benkay "jealous of .NET"
14:52 benkay oh god
14:52 benkay i'm laugh-crying
14:53 asciilifeform from apple's point of view - it isn't quite enough to have an effective vendor lock-in through obj. c and the mac api - it is necessary to breed programmers who can't even -think- on a competing platform.
14:53 kakobrekla so whats the story with this seaforth
14:53 artifexd I'll buy that.
14:54 artifexd Rephrase: asciilifeform, I accept your statement as an acceptable representation of reality.
14:55 asciilifeform artifexd: if headline is genuine, the only real surprise is that apple had not attempted this earlier.
14:55 fluffypony asciilifeform: I think they thought they could bend objective-C to become that
14:56 asciilifeform fluffypony: one hint, in the past, was that apple clearly indicated a desire to see 'gcc' die in a fire
14:57 Naphex asciilifeform: what would be your default language for writing a multi-threaded backend, with lots of sockets and nio?
14:58 asciilifeform Naphex: given empty space?
14:58 asciilifeform and, back-end for what?
14:59 Naphex asciilifeform: hmm, lets say data aquisition. grabbing gps data from vehicles
14:59 fluffypony no new Macbooks
14:59 * fluffypony sulks
14:59 Naphex and managing them so some control commands in there
14:59 asciilifeform Naphex: assuming an actual choice of instruments (rather major assumption) - sbcl.

17:29 BingoBoingo moiety: You catch that link about the local fauna, definitely would trade for Manuls
17:29 mircea_popescu so from the "let's encourage people to fly" department :
17:29 mircea_popescu Braniff Airways Flight 542, a Lockheed L-188 Electra, registration N9705C, was a scheduled domestic flight from Houston, Texas, bound for New York with scheduled stops in Dallas and Washington, D.C.. On September 29, 1959, 23 minutes into the 41-minute flight from Houston to Dallas Love Field, the aircraft disintegrated in mid-air approximately 3.8 miles (6.1 km) southeast of Buffalo, Texas killing everyone on board.
17:30 mircea_popescu However, even though it was determined that the wing was destroyed by "cycles of reverse bending" or "flutter", the investigation failed to determine how the flutter was caused, and the investigation stalled.
17:30 mircea_popescu The breakthrough into unlocking the cause of the accident came after the crash of Northwest Airlines Flight 710 on March 17, 1960. The two aircraft, both Electras, disintegrated in mid-air after losing their wings in similar fashion, both resulting in the deaths of all occupants on board.
17:30 mircea_popescu that's it. thank your for flying vibrator airlines.

17:34 BingoBoingo Best case when AM1 falls to or Below IPO, maybe friedcat buys everyone out a la Erik and takes it private.

23:11 decimation asciilifeform: after reading that chapter, it appears that ferroresonant transformers help with voltage regulation, suppressing harmonics and transients, as well as riding through nasty undervolt conditions (that kill switching power supplies). They aren't very helpful for momentary outages, as you have said.
23:11 asciilifeform decimation: correct.
23:12 decimation I might have to go find one of my own, if they are available for cheap.
23:12 asciilifeform decimation: for outages, ordinary ups.
23:12 asciilifeform decimation: (no reason not to connect traditional ups in series)
23:12 decimation before the transformer I presume?
23:12 asciilifeform aye
23:13 kakobrekla ok so this newlisp is slow as fuck even if they claim otherwise.
23:14 asciilifeform 'newlisp' is the 'feathercoin' of lisps
23:14 kakobrekla is it?
23:14 kakobrekla no clue
23:14 kakobrekla had high hopes at first glance
23:14 asciilifeform author started by pissing all over every single advance in the history of the language - starting with lexical scope, moving on to compiler, etc
23:15 asciilifeform but, 'new' !
23:15 kakobrekla other things but 'new' attracted me, but whatever.
23:15 kakobrekla i found something else to waste time on
23:16 decimation the 'trick' is the airgapped shunt that causes the secondary to saturate, thus causing the output voltage to remain in a narrow range. It's interesting to me that this has been known since 1940, is ideal for computers, and is apparently mostly unknown amoung computer users
23:16 asciilifeform kakobrekla: vaguely relevant ancient thread: http://scottlocklin.wordpress.com/2012/09/12/not-all-programmers-alike/#comment-3674

23:19 asciilifeform decimation: your mains step-down transformer would also be quite audible if you were to take it off the pole and bring it in your living room.
23:20 decimation I'm interested in the lightning suppression, I live in a lightning-prone area and I want to take precautions against harm. I'm not convinced by the "protect" LED in cheapass MOV devices
23:21 asciilifeform CVTs are still used in places where equipment costs $maxint. i personally ordered one installed in a lab where i once worked.
23:21 asciilifeform (we were getting transients from a newly installed gigantic air conditioner)
23:22 asciilifeform quite a few of the units you'll find on 'ebay' are labeled 'minicomputer transformer.' so, i imagine they were shipped with pdp and vax.
23:23 asciilifeform if your computer costs serious dough, a $1k power filter is small change.
23:23 decimation yeah, that's the kind of device where you want to shop "ebay local"
23:23 asciilifeform that or 'free ship'
23:23 decimation lol I bet it costs $1 to ship from hong kong
23:25 asciilifeform decimation: they're typically guaranteed for 25 years or so. get a used box with clear conscience.

23:30 decimation re: dataflow: I've been browsing the academic papers on "dataflow" computers. Most of them are crazy "C machine" and "Dataflow sidecar" hybrids. Makes as much sense as putting a massive aircraft engine in a car: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJn7LHE83cc
23:30 asciilifeform incidentally: cvt is a good pill against nosy buggers who'd like to 'read' bits off your mains wiring.
