trinque: When did I get the honor of becoming one of the Russians?

00:29

only whoever said nothing today said this.

Maybe I misread your pederasty comment?

00:37

was giving you the reason for it. justification for "confused" follows the claim, in any "polite company".

00:38

BingoBoingo would say he's confused but doesn't want to invite a dick into his mouth.

00:45

the pederasty comment is about the glee with which folks will erect a strawman, ("This is how it's defined." <-> "Why?") vs ("This is how it's defined?" <-> "No it's not.") to fuck, which has more to do with... primate brains, less to do with thinking.

00:46

pecking order is unavoidable but not nearly as interesting as the actual subject there was.

00:47

when the former supercedes the latter entirely, I'm out, retarded primates didn't contort their brains enough to think that day.

00:52

and if this "skewering the thing that wasn't said, to the great entertainment of das man" was widespread among SU intellectuals, that'd be a fine reason for them to have gone into decline.

in other lulz, and this is truly lulzworthy : raiding party identified hot girl, set up a meet. at this meet it was established a) that she's from novosibirsk! and b) there was this dorky german fellow attached, who literally sat, by himself, at a table nearby while we had drinks and icecream and shit.

07:59

two hours in, the girl being a sweet soul, asked if he might be invited over ? so sure, dude's been playing the dog long enough, let him be invited over.

08:01

he is an engineer. he wants to know, inter alia, what do i do, and knows that "bitcoin isn't mined anymore". it becomes evident from conversation that she's living with him but isn't fucking him, and while the situation is perfectly acceptable to him, it's very tenuous for her.

08:01

so we mock him a little (which he germans through) and part on good friends. two days later, turns out she moved on.

i am persuaded that it is correct to hold the ability to reconcile the i-you and the world-you correctly from both perspectives as the one test of maturity of the individual. it is however trivial to empirically prove this is not always possible (which is the deep meaning as well as the intellectual relevancy of tragedy - and which is why the greeks or shakespeare matter, and some nigglet woman does not).

10:17

mircea_popescu: this is fundamental, like the ancient art of not shitting in pants

10:17

asciilifeform you'd be surprised.

10:19

mircea_popescu: so you'd then perhaps say that, maybe, a transperson is doomed to not be able to reconcile i-you and world-you, and it is tragic to that person (but that *pretending* as if one has integrated the two in that instance is very stupid)?

10:19

back to welt der kunst for a moment : there is this (idiotarian) notion that the role of art is somehow "emotional" and a piece of crap is art if it "evokes" in the viewer. bullshit. the only point of art is exactly as above : if it provides persuasive examples of the nature discussed.

10:19

(hm, maybe you'd not allow for such a term (transperson) in the first place...)

10:20

this, ironically, makes most of eg "sci-fi" pulp ; and some parts of contemporary (esp visual) arts quite on point.

10:24

a transperson is no more or less doomed than any other person ; because, again, the gap is fundamental and can not be bridged.

10:25

just, since the transperson is more specified than the any other person, there is also a more accessible route to their doom

10:25

much like if you know it's king oedip, you kinda know ~how~ his integration will fail.

10:25

but this aside, the only reason you're "better" ie different is that you don't know.

10:25

not that you won't die.

10:26

(yes, fear of death, in the infantile form thereof is the deep driver behind the pretense of integration "not being a problem", not laziness or anything else.)

and finally re http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-16#1584334 : this isn't an "error" - there is perfectly good reason for the bias (bias is not automatically erroneous!) to flow this way : the event ~happened in the world~. when the event happens in the head, girl a sees girl b feel like a slut, decides girl b is drunk ; girl a sees girl a feel like a slut, decides she is a slut.

10:45

ie, in world-context the bias is for object ; and in i-context the bias is for subject.

which is why people never evaluate correctly neither whether they'll drop the vase too ; nor whether the suicidal depressive will actually kill themselves.

mircea_popescu: 889/231 = 3.8484848484848486

12:04

on average.

12:04

recall, it missed a good chunk of the debian burst

12:05

except there were 9 today, so it's certainly increasing velocity

12:05

asciilifeform there is that yeh

12:06

there's 247 unreported in the above figures (going by phuctor's stats page listing 1136 broken moduli atm)

12:07

asciilifeform incidentally, this sadmods page with its 640k entries is insanity. gotta ship that data in a better format than webpage.

12:08

it's greppable!1111

12:08

if i paginate it -- won't be

12:08

yes, it still will be, except you gotta put a for loop in the bash!

12:08

atm it's not fucking usable, it's been trying to load for 2 minutes.

12:09

it'll be ~less~ usable unless i can figure out how to make the db work in parallel

12:09

aand 504

12:09

right now the thing it hangs on is ~getting to the db at all, ever~

12:09

because it gets 1000+ writes/sec

12:09

yeh sadmods can't be accessed. maybe just take the loi

12:10

the link* off altogether

12:10

phuctor-3 (the next rev, naturally) will be static html

12:10

generated nightly.

12:10

sensible, but even if it were - sadmods, a page worth 640mb may well not be worth doing as such. really i gotta dld a jiggabit of data every time ?

12:10

atm i dun see another way of making the thing behave like a reasonable-people www.

12:10

paginate it and let me download as many pages as i wish

12:11

aite, it'll be paginated.

12:11

worx.

12:11

unrelatedly, and i have to dig up a week-old thread, but this has to be done, i gotta deebot FUCKGOATS

12:11

not even the pictures, just the genesis

12:11

how do i do this.

12:12

*deedbot

12:13

are you just trying to clearsign one vpatch then?

12:13

mod6: v doesn't deal in clearsigned anythings

12:13

you know that.

12:13

i do know that. :]

12:13

then this is a question for trinque; he'll know if deedbot can or can't deal with .sig files.

12:14

and yes, i'm aware that i can take whatever and package it up in a uuencoded+clearsigned turd. but this is insanity.

12:15

it's your thing, you can do it however you see fit.

12:16

i don't see any of the available options as 'fit' !!

12:16

then do nothing, until there is a solution.

12:16

i gotta do this BEFORE MOTHERFUCKING CRATE SHIPS

12:16

understand??

12:16

'nothing' is always an option.

12:16

say mr.crate opens his crate and finds rng that spew out marsaglia instead of trng bits.

12:16

he asks 'what gives'

12:17

i point TO DEEDBOT

12:18

what do you propose as the idea solution here?

12:18

*ideal

12:18

---- except that i can't because apparently we have 0 working infrastructure for actually releasing v code

12:18

solution is that deedbot eats ordinary standalone gpg sigs.

12:18

( trinque ? how difficult this would be ? )

12:21

to make clear what i need here, 1) i gotta put a source link on nosuchlabs.com 2) it must be a HUMAN READABLE + VALID vgenesis 3) it should be a link to deedbot.

12:24

http://danielpbarron.com/2016/the-drunken-explorer/ << Daniel P. Barron - The drunken explorer

12:25

asciilifeform: *for the time being*, can you not hash the package, and deedbot clearsigned hash of package?

12:26

sure, this isn't a logistical solution, but you'll be able to point to a timestamped-and-signed checksum.

12:26

<+asciilifeform> ---- except that i can't because apparently we have 0 working infrastructure for actually releasing v code << i disagree with this. what we have, and trb isn't the only one who's done this, is; you make a mirror, and then v.pl deals with this. you grab all the vpatches you want, and the sigs from people you trust, and you place them in v, then you do what you wanna do.

12:26

Framedragger: i can, and ~nobody will verify.

12:26

this is no good.

12:26

isn't that their problem, not yours?

12:27

what use are they who do not verify anyway? do you expect those who do not verify to verify v sigs?

12:27

this isn't the only problem

12:27

how do i even phrase this

12:28

i need to nail down the existence of the current cpld config prior to crate leaving.

12:28

(i am aware of vdiff barfing over certain character sequences. but maybe it'd be enough to timestamp-and-sign hash for now? to be able to *prove* things.)

12:28

but to nail it down in such a way that it is immediately obvious to all visitors to my www.

12:28

asciilifeform what's the problem with signed tarball again ?

12:29

~obvious~, rather than pryable-apart-if-opposed

12:29

does that make sense ?

12:29

mircea_popescu: tarballs ain't vgenesis

12:29

what exact problem are you trying to solve here ?

12:29

i did not succeed in describing it above..?

12:29

not for the part where you don't like the solution.

12:30

you point to deedbot which contains signed tarball. what's the problem ?

12:30

v should abolish the idiocy of 'signed tarballs'

12:30

*

Framedragger not sure why vgenesis must be used here, even though in the future that's the correct ideological pathway, sure. but i'm possibly underinformed and out of my element

12:30

asciilifeform which brings us back to "what problem are you trying to solve"

12:30

it's a motherfucking vgenesis, it's human-readable, AND signed, AND unmutilated, the way it stands

12:30

and that's what i want up on the www.

12:30

and not tarball.

12:31

if you've internally decided that you won't ship the items until "v demolishes the idiocy of tarballs" we have a problem.

12:31

<+asciilifeform> v should abolish the idiocy of 'signed tarballs' << it doesn't have to. so far, we don't even have anything of the kind. just vpatches + sigs. 'tis all.

12:31

link me to this item ?

12:31

alright.

12:33

thestringpuller: plz to read today's log

12:33

thestringpuller the two evident avenues would be a) power differential analysis (ie, see how much electricity it eats, and parasite waveforms it induces). this is amply discussed on web re subverting gpg (eventually they got it to work with mere microphone, but same principle)

12:33

(but i think i got it why you don't want binary tarball - it'd sure be nice to be able to host a plaintext package, with v sigs etc right there. hm. but then why deedbot the *whole* thing - why not deedbot only hashes of tarball version of webthing. make webthing available to view, but also for those who wish to verify via deedbot, too, make tarball available. not pretty, but worx for *now*.)

12:34

and much cheaper b) make it encrypt the same thing a shitton of times and see if there's any key leakage.

12:34

Framedragger you're very loud and not very helpful.

12:34

sorry.

12:35

thestringpuller neither of these are "easy" in the sense of windows. you'll have to do research and work the elbow grease to see results.

12:36

mod6: we have the 3rd party signed tarballs, that we can't convert to v because of the binary problem. i think asciilifeform doesn't want to fallback to doing the same with own releases. wants to solve binary problem, or find some alternative solution. there's also been a lot of sentiment here against using sha/sig combination. "sign the thing itself" etc.

12:36

the part where "please don't make me turn ascii into tarballs" is sensible, just, lets see what he actually is talking about.

12:38

phf: oh i get it. i lead by example with trb on this. there is no good solution here. we do not want blobs in V, and somewhere between a-z you end up with a blob that must get signed along with the vpatches.

12:38

there may be some better solution to this with deedbot.

12:39

it currently does not exist.

12:40

now. if you need to ship, this instant. you either do what you can, as I did, or you do nothing until you can.

12:43

if I were him, this is what I would do: take the schematic blob, encode it, clearsign it with a note at the top and a hash of its output value. submit to deedbot. next, edit the code somewhere or prefereably create a README.txt that points to that deed, create a new fuckgoats_genesis.vpatch and fuckgoats_genesis.vpatch.alf.sig on nosuchlabs.com, point to them with your www.

12:43

done. ship it.

12:44

i'll even run a mirror of it myself if anyone would like me to do so.

12:45

mod6 hang on hang on, it's not even clear any actual blobs are involved this time around.

12:47

there are no;t.

12:47

not.

12:48

they will be included strictly as sha512 in the 'readme'.

12:48

mircea_popescu always found the absence of the range datatype a kind-of lulzy thing in cs.

12:54

absence where

12:54

it is quite present in, e.g., ada.

12:54

(painfully so)

12:55

in whatever ; javascript, facebook-php, ruby etc

12:56

basically, in the "mindshare" of the "community"

12:56

the gap between the land of man and monkey -- is wide indeed

12:56

I think it would be really cool to have something like !!deedbot <wotpaste_of_vpatch> <pgp_sig_of_wotpaste_vpatch>

12:56

mod6 the only q is whether this isn't redundant ; and if it isn't, whether the utility doesn't belie bad design etc.

12:56

It could place those in, just as it does regular deeds.. I'd say, if anyone is a good lisp dev (phf, whomever) to work with trinque to get this feature put into place.

12:56

this needs a proper discussion, and the exact reforms/solutions aren't evident yet.

12:57

i think woodcoin is best altcoin. everyone else is going for the whole cyberpunk fastcompany vibe, while these guys are earnestly doing their own thing. it's like an elven technology department, established by young visionaries despite the disapproval of the elders, their servers all run on thermal generators somewhere in the cascadians, etc.

asciilifeform what is the matter with sending to deedbot the item #1 wrapped in a "This is a notarized version of the original root of the so and so project, prepared for this and that etc" ?

13:25

the reason why, will become apparent to readers.

13:25

mircea_popescu: that it cannot be =?='d without human hands

13:26

it is promisetronic step.

13:26

but since nobody seems to have any better idea, i'ma deedbot a manifest.

13:26

but the point of deedbot is to contain signed matter intended for human hands ; it is why the signed matter intended for machine processing is a separate mechanism.

13:26

asciilifeform: is this the `blessed` method for use with fg at moment?

13:27

no see, nevermind the practice. of major import here is the possibility that we've obtained a theoretical challenge through practice

13:27

so let's get the theory settled first and then act.

13:46

*

mircea_popescu will read in a moment.,

13:46

mircea_popescu: so then. no such thing. it is ~impossible to machine anything useful out of code, if it were possible, it would be done by compiler and the ~language per se~ would include this intelligence.

13:46

Something just to start the thought of what to do about all of this. Maybe there is even some folding into a UCI with this, not sure.

13:46

Or tb0t for that matter.

13:46

asciilifeform and yet bounds checking is possible.

13:47

mircea_popescu: depends in what

13:47

which is my point ; your negative is too strong.

13:47

at runtime -- only if the cpu is 'smart' , or if the compiler stuffs in the check every single time

13:47

(a la ada)

13:47

at compile-time -- only if the language is properly constrained

13:47

(a la haskell)

13:52

Eh, I don't even think I like my own idea.

13:52

Food for thought I guess. :/

13:55

asciilifeform: i'm sad your schematic is missing the annotation. how will we know in thousand years time that it was indeed penned by the blessed leibowitz

13:55

phf: eh what annotation

13:55

also if the entire thing isn't bloody obvious, then i have nfi even

13:56

asciilifeform i think he means you didn't put your name on it

13:56

^

13:56

~it is also a joke~ i have no idea with you people any more

13:56

hey the schem hashes are in 1) the v genesis + 2) the signed manifest

13:56

mod6 seems more like you want phf's bot to have an irc submission interface ?

13:56

which i think he intends to do on his own once he's happy with the whole tower ?

13:57

phf: my sense of joke will come back when i'm done hand-testing the rng boards tonight and finally vacuum seal the last of'em

13:57

asciilifeform there's something fundamentally visceral about the written page you're entirely inadherent to, as seen here and in the case of clearsigns etc. pass by reference is not the same as pass by value!

13:58

yeah, that could probably be a decent feature there. i do recall phf talking about it.

13:58

mircea_popescu: tru

13:58

mircea_popescu: sorta why i wanted the whole thing in the genesis.

13:58

but in truth there's two kinds of kids in the kindergarten, those who go around writing their name on all the cubes and those who go around pointing at all the things and saying "mine!"

13:59

btw when i see symptoms that anybody has read fg.v i will tell an exciting story.

13:59

about how i was a hair's breadth from concluding that we'd have to scrap the first set of boards

14:00

because initially i could not get the yoke test to actually work as advertised.

Framedragger aha.

14:16

i see, very elegant!

14:16

Framedragger: short version of the story goes like this. our analogue rng is an analogue device, and is not synched with anything! so it occasionally violates the hold time constraint of any digital circuit it happens to be plugged into

14:16

log link fxd

14:16

the whole idea of 'digital circuit' is somewhat promisetronic

14:16

there is no such animal in nature.

14:17

i see, hence the need to keep 'clock sync'

14:18

now question for the mathematicians in attendance : obviously we know that if you want to "keep bot mining tethered to this point" the approach is to implement drunk walk. this however will result in a gradient intensity of steps, decreasing from the origin. now - how do we shape the intensity distribution so that eg the maximal intensity is in a circle around the origin, while maintaining the desirable properties of the drun

14:18

problem is "keep sample locations tethered to this origin"

14:23

does the 'walker' know his distance from the origin ?

14:23

(directly, that is)

14:23

yes.

14:23

then can make each step 'cost' in proportion to the distance it puts between him and origin

asciilifeform, what do you mean 'leg' re: drunk walk ?

↖ ↖

17:52

in math terms, probably that when selecting new angle angle, there is a statistical bias towards one side from the current angle? so that if it were a person, one of the legs would be shorter, and the person would be inclined towards one side when walking somewhere.

17:56

(if you then draw path of person with enough datapoints (sufficient amount of choose-new-angle events), you'd get an arc/circle.)

course the error here is enough to drift the miner one full step in 1bn explore attempts, which is far outside what anyone ever managed to do in one run.

18:09

Framedragger it already tests the limits of common understanding, with good stuff like pricing, industry models, etc.

18:11

incidentally asciilifeform : actual usecase for FUCKGOATS in eulroa play : because the current mining software uses random to position the miner, the quality of the rng generator decides how likely you actually step outside of the coords you are. ie, if your rng is biased, you're more likely to go outside.

18:11

you know, sometimes i'm tempted to write up some kind of graphics-less (otherwise it's not feasible) civ-style simulator with proper economics, including contracts, liquidity etc etc. maybe eulora is the place to explore all that hm :)

so it's also a passive bias measurer lol.

18:42

no, run walk wouldn't do it. have to get a random number from 0 to pi and then randomly add pi to it based on a given chance

18:42

wait what ?

18:43

the random from 0 to pi picks which angle to use within a certain half of the circle (of possible angles), and adding pi to it would put it in the other half

18:43

nevermind the angle, this is about the steps.

18:44

i don't see how moving forward more or less after having turned a random angle would change the overall pattern

18:44

hm.

18:45

Framedragger suggested that the character prefer to move left over right (or vice versa)

18:45

yes but that's nonsense.

18:45

basically, prefer to move < pi rather than > pi

mircea_popescu: don't think that's nonsense - it's simply introducing a bias into choosing "which direction - left or right - should i prefer", no? or do you mean that it's not "realistic" and would look stupid? (maybe...)
