00:00 lobbes asciilifeform: re: that upstack Q, perhaps you are right. There was a link to some shithub source iirc
00:00 asciilifeform how thefuq did that even come outta anybody's keyboard tho !!
00:01 asciilifeform ×××××××
00:01 asciilifeform an' ÷
00:02 asciilifeform or hm lobbes , can you elaborate re the internals of your thing ? does it put into wp at some pt , and ~it~ 'smartly' replaced % with ÷ and so on ??
00:02 lobbes in either case, re: upstack I'm going to take mp_en_viaje's advice and just genesis the eulora logger as-is. It is a good point that nobody has to use the genesis *as is* (and indeed, publishing today means I can look back on it tomorrow)
00:03 asciilifeform note also that ~this~ alone wouldn't turn it to barf, the above lines logged and display correctly
00:03 lobbes asciilifeform: essentially, there's a ZNC logger and files. Then I have a cronjob that runs the heathen logs2html, then another cronjob that transfers these files to the /var/www/ side
00:04 asciilifeform ugh wonder if 'logs2html' is it
00:04 asciilifeform cut it open.
00:04 * asciilifeform bbl:meat
00:04 lobbes could be... hence I think mp_en_viaje is right: I'ma have to publish so the real doctors can help me dissect it
00:04 * lobbes also bbl

04:39 spyked BingoBoingo, re. linux music player: I was using cmus and rhythmbox at the time (and before that I used "banshee", some bloatware written in C#/mono) and they both eventually cracked under the pressure, in different ways (segfault or hanging). so I fell back to more lightweight frontends for mplayer, e.g. mpv, and found out again that scriptability far surpasses the need for any GUI/TUI
04:39 lobbesbot spyked: Sent 7 hours and 49 minutes ago: <BingoBoingo> re: http://daimon.me/blog/2012/05/winamp-ruleaza-cat-si-doua-vorbe-despre-linux/#comment-8147 the music player for linux is cmus
04:40 spyked and by frontend I mean, proggy that receives file as command argument and plays it -- in case of audio file, without spawning anything graphical
04:42 * spyked also tried "mpd" once, but only managed to make system-wide config, no user-level; and iirc launching it required special privileges, so I eventually gave up.

05:59 spyked asciilifeform, minor nitpick re snsabot: I see no difference in the www interface between CTCP actions (the /me thing) and normal replies. e.g. I would expect ^ to be rendered as "spyked also tried ..." instead of "spyked: also tried".
06:03 spyked also, a matter of personal preference: I've grown used to the btcbase behaviour of links opening in a new window. is this desirable/annoying? does anyone else care?
06:04 mp_en_viaje spyked, honestly i wouldn't support the distinction.
06:05 mp_en_viaje and i always ctrl-click anyways so i don't notice ; but i suppose might be desirable for some ? though, why have it baked in when you have the ctrl key to make up your own adventure ?
06:06 mp_en_viaje let links be links and ctrl-click them when you want a new window, why not.
06:06 mp_en_viaje http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927723 << pre-poetteering & his ugly children downstream, realise.

06:07 mp_en_viaje http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927726 << this is so, ro trilema utterly unamenable to automation.
06:07 snsabot Logged on 2019-08-11 22:33:12 asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i can't resist to ask, didja actually work through the ro, or relying on googlefish etc ? cuz if it's the latter, yer certain to step on some sharp nails
06:08 diana_coman I also ctrl-click so didn't notice but I don't see the reason to bake in "new window"

06:08 snsabot Logged on 2019-08-11 22:36:43 lobbes: wonder if just because it is ~15 MB...
06:08 mp_en_viaje diana_coman, i have been taking them out from tlp for instance.
06:08 mp_en_viaje target="_blank" nonsense.
06:09 mp_en_viaje wtf pile of eyesore and assorted sadness html spec turns out to have been. all sorts of dangling nonsense a la above, it's the one midden that'll say the least flatterinfg things about humanity to the future archeologist.
06:09 mp_en_viaje "oh, so they were retarded."
06:10 diana_coman spyked: re actions, asciilifeform already responded in #o : http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/ossasepia/2019-08-11#1000090
06:10 snsabot Logged on 2019-08-11 11:03:43 diana_coman: asciilifeform: actions seem to show in logger as text said rather than in any way different; is that intended? I don't quite grok what's the thing with *nick then?
06:10 mp_en_viaje wtf OTHER targets were contemplated such that target=n or target=new were both not good enough ?
06:10 diana_coman hm now - should I have linked his answer rather than the start of the thread?
06:11 mp_en_viaje diana_coman, do you see value in maintaining the "ctcp" pile ?
06:11 diana_coman mp_en_viaje: myeah, to me all www looks like "big pile of chairs that nobody ever cleaned up at all either"
06:12 diana_coman mp_en_viaje: when trying to come up with a reason for it - no, nothing comes up really;
06:13 mp_en_viaje it's basically a tumour grown upon irc protocol.
06:13 diana_coman above it was more of a surprise at "why store it at all if it's not going to make any difference at all anyway"
06:13 mp_en_viaje has this one visible tentac le here, otherwise does all sorta idioti things, i turn it all off on my clients
06:14 spyked diana_coman, ty for the reference. btcbase does distinguish ctcp from the rest of msgs by... removing the ":" after the nick. I don't think it's a big deal either way, just noticed it while reading html log.
06:15 spyked mp_en_viaje, that's a fair point, client behaviour of "open link" (click, ctrl+click etc.) should be a client-side knob.
06:15 mp_en_viaje word.
06:17 diana_coman ctcp does have the flavuor of "improvements by the crowd"
06:19 mp_en_viaje there's dcc, which while useless at least has historical logic, tryna compete in the field of the time, file transfer. because ~anyone wanted irc wanted so as to sext
06:19 mp_en_viaje but ctcp is just wikimedia-ism, stupidity designed by committee of ustards
06:22 mp_en_viaje http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2019-08-11#1927780 << I do not expect that's his blog ; item is work of (relatively) well known internet lulzcow, one David Futrelle, a one-time pick-up artist / big man leadership dood meanwhile turned on the other side of the "BUT OBVIOUSLY, do we still have to DO this" cvasi-debate.
06:22 snsabot Logged on 2019-08-11 23:42:08 asciilifeform: meanwhile, elsewhere, the 'chi non piscia in compagnia' anon in mp's comments apparently has this as his www ...
06:22 mp_en_viaje the Anon on trilema was for a few years genuine anon person, but then someone figured out the email, like in the satoshi incident later, so now it's in principle anyoen who knows about that.
06:22 mp_en_viaje i dunno if the orig Anon still writes even.
06:22 mp_en_viaje but what am i going to do, break it ? tis history.
06:23 mp_en_viaje https://encyclopediadramatica.rs/David_Futrelle for the drama inclined
06:25 diana_coman it just seemed to me that Anon(s) was pouring so much effort into constructing all sorts of "he's bad" about anyone as soon as it seemed "safe" to do it that..well, maybe he finally gets the idea of pouring that effort into something more useful
06:27 diana_coman historically it just about never goes that way, of course.
06:29 mp_en_viaje the problem with daydreaming is that it's fundamentally uninteresting, even to the kids themselves.
06:30 diana_coman but somehow they still seem perfectly able to go about it until they die (and apparently they don't die of boredom either)
06:31 mp_en_viaje only at certain times.
06:31 mp_en_viaje see, daydreaming as an activity is a switchoff, always there when... reality goes under a certain threshold. daydreaming is the backup girlfriend, the one you call when better plans for friday night failed.
06:32 mp_en_viaje this kinda proves the "fundamentally uninteresting" point to my eyes.
06:33 mp_en_viaje also explains why it never goes that way, like you say. if it's something you only do when you're poor, there's never going to be olympics of it -- those guys ain't poor.

07:12 mp_en_viaje in other news, holy shit spyked that daimon carcass is sad. whole thing fucking became an epitaph of derealisation. "gândește-te așa: dacă azi ai asculta Mafia pentru prima dată, te-ar impresiona atât de tare încât te-ai duce la un al doilea concert?" ; "mă simt oarecum … scos din schemă.

07:12 mp_en_viaje IN recrutorii. Privesc ușor abulic, „așa, și?”. Se zbat cei din partidele noi să scoată orașul și țara din rahat, chiar fără voia lor. Este amuzant, dar nu mă angajează."
07:13 mp_en_viaje "oh, the notre dame burned down, huh", vorba francezilor.
07:13 mp_en_viaje depressing.
07:19 mp_en_viaje meanwhile in pointed counterpoint, bimbo apparently ran into dramas.
07:22 mp_en_viaje kinda brings some unexplected points in focus : when i started trilema, i was almost 30. when daimon ended his blog, he was almost 30. now compare, from http://daimon.me/aleph/2017/ to http://daimon.me/aleph/2019/ versus http://trilema.com/2009/ to http://trilema.com/20011/ -- how does it come out ?
07:24 diana_coman mp_en_viaje: it's "amusing", right? that "oh, how funny you are trying to do something, how entertaining" is such great heights of being great, I can't even
07:24 mp_en_viaje that guy was eminently ALSO capable, in the of-this-list sense fo capacity. he wandered off on his own power, there was no "meet mp" moment iirc. but there's inescapably, overpoweringly, a difference between the daimons (one of the first trilema participants, back in 2009), and the phfs (as it happens, the most recent "victim" of my "abusive" approach to disreality) of the world, and nicole on the other.
07:24 mp_en_viaje and no, the difference isn't the tits.
07:25 mp_en_viaje diana_coman, with amusements like that, who even needs strychnine anymore.
07:27 ave1 diana_coman: It seems one of your comments ended up in the spambox. Could you try again?
07:27 diana_coman quite; for lack of anyone giving them a good beating when they are so amused, grrr.
07:27 mp_en_viaje why, so they can be "in the hospital" with "a sepsis" ?
07:27 mp_en_viaje for all you know, someone tried.
07:28 diana_coman ave1: works!
07:28 mp_en_viaje ave1, your pics break across the blog
07:28 ave1 I am sorry, somehow between all the spam of "I like your writing style" it got eaten.
07:28 mp_en_viaje is this intentional ?
07:29 diana_coman mp_en_viaje: hm, it might be, indeed.
07:29 mp_en_viaje Saturday we flew to Ukraine << roflmao wtf, we missed each other by a week then ?
07:33 mp_en_viaje http://ave1.org/comments/feed/ << missed diana_coman not in the feed (and obv also not in the shorted list on blog side) so now i dunno what it was!
07:34 ave1 mp_en_viaje: Pics made smaller, was not intentional
07:35 ave1 mp_en_viaje: Yes, although we travelled on to Vinnitsa right away and I'l be visiting Kiev for 2 days end of August
07:35 mp_en_viaje im not going back to kiev.
07:37 mp_en_viaje let them figure out how to grow girls that don't look like little boys.
07:38 ave1 Yes, they all look like 16 year olds
07:39 mp_en_viaje giving me fucking nightmares.
07:40 mp_en_viaje i didn't mind it so much twenty-odd years ago, but meanwhile apparently it's become intolerable.

13:09 mp_en_viaje asciilifeform, hi there.

13:12 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: tried to make 'new tab'ism go this morning, when spyked mentioned it, but it'll take some fiddling -- interacts poorly with the regexp-based link highlighting i used in this hasty drumhead logger. so prolly won't happen until much later.
13:13 asciilifeform ( in re knobs, 1 optional toggle that asciilifeform wanted for many yrs -- but dun have yet -- is a 'reverse gear', i.e. display log 1st line on top of screen and down. but this, also, later. )

13:18 mp_en_viaje good
13:19 asciilifeform haven't observed , in particular, the effect mentioned by spyked
13:20 asciilifeform ( which dun mean it is illusory; snsabot has been on the air for <week )
13:21 mp_en_viaje it is entirely possible feedbot gets kicked because of trying to ping while sending
13:21 asciilifeform i gotta say, never before heard of ~client~ having to ~send~ 'ping'
13:21 asciilifeform 'pong' -- yes, 'ping' ?
13:21 mp_en_viaje asciilifeform, laugh but it's the model im contemplating re eulora
13:22 mp_en_viaje let ~client~ check.
13:22 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: i meant specifically in re traditional irc
13:22 asciilifeform rather than general case
13:22 mp_en_viaje a ok
13:23 asciilifeform in trad irc, server periodically asks 'PING blah' and client expected to 'PONG blah' back (why? if it's a tcp pipe? what's the whole point of tcp, orig, if not to avoid this? dun ask me)
13:23 mp_en_viaje just... there's the obvious cut that the server dpesn't specifically care whether ny client is up or down ; yet each client cares whether server exists or doesn't. well... so to the victor go the spoils then, let the curious ask.
13:23 mp_en_viaje what i;m saying is that server-ping is utterly misdesigned.
13:23 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: thinking about it, it's outgrowth of tcp retardation, where having the client alive costs the server at all times
13:23 mp_en_viaje indeed it is, huh
13:23 asciilifeform so server wants to dispose of the corpses (they occupy memory)
13:24 mp_en_viaje yeah, makes sense. as in -- i can understand the fungal path

13:28 asciilifeform early ro net is still largely 'dark matter' to asciilifeform ( tho moar penetrable than e.g. the finns; at least in ro human lang , lol )
13:29 mp_en_viaje and yes alflog still teletype, http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2018-04-18#1802801 loaded in ~5s

13:29 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: indeed, in fact 6s here.
13:29 mp_en_viaje asciilifeform, mid2000s very far from early. early ro net was you know, mid 90s.
13:30 asciilifeform prolly will remain 'teletype' until make caching mechanism per mp_en_viaje's algo (or rewrite in cl) whichever comes 1st
13:30 mp_en_viaje ~80% by mass people hooking up on irc, iirc.
13:30 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: a, assumed that 2000s was continuation of '90s, same folx
13:30 mp_en_viaje nah.
13:30 mp_en_viaje 90s folks were working for microsoft by 2001.
13:31 asciilifeform phunphakt -- for many yrs, asciilifeform's only exposure to ro folx was -- inhabitants of virii-themed forums
13:32 asciilifeform incl. some spam/shitware folx who had... rather porous system , and could see their internal lulz
13:33 mp_en_viaje that was more substantially the 2nd ro internet generation, late 90s to mid 2000s
13:33 asciilifeform was astonished, that poor orcs would break backs over coupla hundy u.s in whatever scammages
13:33 asciilifeform pictured, as consequence, modern ro as a place similar to india
13:33 mp_en_viaje then sometime around 2004 or so the ro bureaucracy started getting online, resulting in the usual shitfest, "online publications", all the pretense to "the guardian" and "new york times" etc.
13:34 mp_en_viaje then sometime 2015 or so the fourth generation came about, smartphones + fb.
13:34 mp_en_viaje finally everyone reached the same bottom, so there's little point in discussing romania apart from yurp
13:35 asciilifeform i liked, ftr, how in e.g. timis, casino house on erry corner, and next to it a pawn where orc can pawn his last shirt + pnoje
13:35 asciilifeform they oughta have these errywhere
13:36 mp_en_viaje lol "casino"
13:36 asciilifeform well, numbers game pit
13:36 mp_en_viaje you know the fucktards in minsk ~actually asked me for id~ ?!
13:36 asciilifeform or what were they called in orig, i fuighet
13:36 mp_en_viaje what the fuck do these people think a casino is.
13:37 asciilifeform btw 'vhs' people think 'america -- casino -- vegas!111' but in fact most of usa has some form of (bureaucrat-run) casino, and typically is little diff. from the ro item, and fulla 80 y.o. pissing away their last cent to ~simulated, 3d~ horse race
13:38 asciilifeform the dumb shits build'em on outskirts of city, tho, where hardly anyone goes
13:38 mp_en_viaje pretty sad.
13:38 mp_en_viaje anyway, in my country you can just take the money and leave.
13:39 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: the 1 i actually went into, in timis, was in fact automated, like old arcades
13:39 asciilifeform put in coin -- maybe get 1 back , etc

13:39 mp_en_viaje asciilifeform, oh, the slot things huh.

13:42 mp_en_viaje i used these to great effect once, was on trip to serbia with then very recently enslavbed hanbot, proceeded to extract a few hundy out of the machines by monte-carlo-ing them out of their engineering assumptions. happened to be more than the whole weekend stay cost, gave her great story to rely the greatness of her master.
13:42 asciilifeform lol, they use 1970s prng dun they.
13:43 mp_en_viaje old things. yup.
13:43 mp_en_viaje nowadays they don't even PERMIT monte carlo, the new (transparently java) craps have like 10-15-20-25 four options for a bid sort of thing
13:44 asciilifeform reputedly, in (actual) casino in usa, anyone who is seen (cameras in erry hole) to win 2-3x, is banished and told not to come back
13:44 asciilifeform 'this place is where you go to LOSE'
13:45 mp_en_viaje after seeing the line-of-cabs edifice of socialism this doesn't even strike me as unlikely
13:46 asciilifeform also, or goes the legend, anyone who was in some way party to the design of the game instruments, is persona non grata in casino (e.g., asciilifeform's brother, who has never set foot in a casino nor wanted to; one time his (long-defunkt) firm was contracted to make a pokerator... )
13:51 asciilifeform the other interesting casinoism is that in usa, rng is a sealed box provided by usg. but iirc had already thread about this, in '13
13:52 asciilifeform typical cheats, in so far as they reach the open literature, involve the coin dispenser, rather than rng per se.
13:53 asciilifeform ( no public word , naturally, in re how much coin the 'inspectors' w/ the prng key, walk out with, and with what regularity )

16:55 mp_en_viaje he has a point, shoyuld be 039
16:57 mp_en_viaje speaking of http://bvt-trace.net/2019/08/vpatch-support-for-files-in-vtree-root/comment-page-1/#comment-57 what's even the guidance ? "fix one issue" ? something else ?
17:01 bvt asciilifeform: re ctcp, you can spot /me messages in the curl output of your logger: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/sUDA5/?raw=true (extra ' 01 ' byte)
17:07 bvt mp_en_viaje: i think there are two aspects: 1. readability (whether readers would be able to understand what is going on; in that vpatch the changes are local enough); 2. atomicity (whether someone would ever want to have one fix without the other; here my position is much weaker -- perhaps someone would want to have a crash on empty vpatches?)
17:09 mp_en_viaje to be sure i think your patch is fine as it is.
17:10 bvt there is also an aspect of potential future re-signing work on regrinds, which forces bigger vpatches, but imo the first two are more important
17:11 mp_en_viaje how's that ?
17:14 bvt well when i was re-signing another vtools vpatch at phf's request (for keccak regrind), i did the full re-testing as when releasing it the first time, to make sure that everything is ok.
17:15 bvt and i know that when re-signing multiple vpatches, i would have done the same thing individually for each vpatch.

17:17 bvt maybe that's too much testing for re-signing, i dunno.
17:19 mp_en_viaje i just don't understand what two things we're comparing.
17:20 mp_en_viaje BingoBoingo, typical tropes of oldwoman fiction.
17:26 bvt in my workflow, each vpatch individually receives full press-build-test cycle; more smaller vpatches can make this process a bit longer and tedious.
17:28 bvt but again, i think the first to points are more important; the third one has less priority (at least for me).
17:29 bvt the two things for comparison -- less total number of vpatches at cost of vpatch size, or more vpatches, but smaller ones?
17:33 mp_en_viaje if you do a total of 100 unit tests, does it matter if you do them in sets of 9-11-9-11 for 10 patches or in sets of 23-27-23-27 for 4 patches ?
17:39 bvt so far i've been doing everything manually. for 10 vpatches, i would start automating the process. typicall i'd run full test set for each vpatch

18:20 asciilifeform i was baking the cache
18:20 mp_en_viaje ok, but you can have the logger blow the cache for the www
18:21 mp_en_viaje nobody says www has to blow it
18:21 asciilifeform not trivially, but yes, would have to
18:21 asciilifeform ( currently the only means of communication b/w logger and www end, is (excepting the search fetch) -- the DB )
18:21 mp_en_viaje have the logger simply delete the file whenever it runs into a logreference. eg if i say http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/trilema/2018-08-12#1841030 it erases 2018-08-12.html
18:21 snsabot Logged on 2018-08-12 11:20:24 asciilifeform: ( 4x, as large as can be had. )
18:22 mp_en_viaje www reconstructs it next someone calls that url.
18:22 asciilifeform the logger is built deliberately not to assume that it is on same box as www.
18:22 asciilifeform ( plan is to have >1 , eventually, even inside this 1 system )
18:23 mp_en_viaje hm
18:23 mp_en_viaje nfi why youd do it like that.
18:24 asciilifeform to keep all wwwism inside the wwwtron, and all ircism inside irctron.
18:24 mp_en_viaje but they share a db and a filesystem, and are on same box.
18:24 asciilifeform currently they indeed do.
18:24 mp_en_viaje imo this should be set in stone.
18:24 asciilifeform in that case may as well make'em same proggy. tho i like being able to reset the www displayer w/out affecting bot.
18:25 mp_en_viaje so then that's why not make them same proggy
18:25 asciilifeform cuz of the above.
18:25 asciilifeform whythefuck throw the bot's connection simply to change colour of wwwism etc
18:25 mp_en_viaje but it makes perfect sense to make them same unit, and make multiples of the complete unit if need be for reliability. it makes anti-sense to create "across-box" db edges, and try and maintain the nonsense army of unlilely units that don't work separately anyway
18:26 asciilifeform currently they do work separately, if one were to tunnel the pgism. but mp_en_viaje has the point, that 'who knows if this even will ever be needed'
18:26 mp_en_viaje while it's sensible to have www and logbot separate programs, it makes stupid to have them on separate boxes.
18:27 mp_en_viaje meanwhile in goange, i give you https://imgs.mongabay.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/30/2019/02/15234715/Schizodactylus-monstrosus-from-Arunachal-Pradesh-.-768x512.jpg
18:27 asciilifeform hm prolly i oughta have done it phuctor-style (where there's 1 .py and it can run either as wwwtron or 'eater' depending on cmdline params. )
18:28 asciilifeform that way reduce to 1 proggy, and all of the shared routines unduped.
18:28 mp_en_viaje or separate altogether, either way really.
18:28 mp_en_viaje could lib out the shared routines i guess
18:28 * asciilifeform dislikes pyistic libism , it spirals into insanity pretty quickly and makes testing / swaps of proggy on live box complicated
18:29 mp_en_viaje no argument here
18:29 mp_en_viaje point being, some duplication will hurt ~nothing anyway. you can keep them as they are, just drop the spurious design constraint
18:29 asciilifeform already this thing is eating surprising amt of hand-cranking
18:29 mp_en_viaje then you can have logbot invalidate cache and wwwtron construct cache and happy life.
18:30 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: re 'delete file', it isn't quite a simple, cuz fs ops are potentially locking. i elided what means 'wipe the cache' for brevity, but there's a knob.
18:30 asciilifeform *as simple
18:31 mp_en_viaje a rm will block ~nothing
18:32 asciilifeform i thought this also, when had pre-PG phuctor. turns out ~nothing is measurably > nothing, lol
18:32 mp_en_viaje lol
18:32 mp_en_viaje well, aite
18:32 asciilifeform this is actually the interesting thing about multiprocesstronic proggies. as alluded to by spyked . the improbable -- is certain to eventually happen.
18:33 asciilifeform ( and typically sooner than you think )
18:34 asciilifeform dijkstra spent whole life killing trees on subj of deadlocking etc. but the subj is deep enuff for 9000 dijkstras.

18:37 mp_en_viaje some indian atrocity.
18:47 mp_en_viaje anyone recall the trilema article (maybe comment ?) where i was explaining that choice's not constructive, one gotta pick A-or-B or else C-or-D, can't pick imaginarily A-or-D because D doesn't exist in a system with A.
18:49 asciilifeform mp_en_viaje: http://trilema.com/2012/strategic-superiority-a-saga/ ?
18:49 mp_en_viaje nah, maor recent
18:58 mp_en_viaje gah this is frustrationg

~ 1 hours 38 minutes ~
21:03 asciilifeform soo, in strange findings: on dulap, 'time curl http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log' yields 2.342s; ( from my chair, same -- 2.455s ); but on identical (3m ago) clone of db , running locally, on substantially slower box, 0.252s !
21:04 asciilifeform dulap aint currently swamped with loads, either
21:04 asciilifeform ( on either log or phuctor )
21:06 asciilifeform i'm beginning to suspect that the indices work here (pg 9) and not there (10)
21:06 asciilifeform i.e. silently fail
21:07 asciilifeform ... which is odd, cuz phuctor's -- work
21:10 asciilifeform interestingly, seems to vary there by factor of ~2x !
21:10 asciilifeform but!! only via apache ! i.e. time curl http://127.0.0.1:5002/log dun show either the variance or the slowdown.
21:11 asciilifeform culprit, apparently , the frontend
21:14 asciilifeform ... 100% of the time diff, apparently, in response req time
~ 44 minutes ~
21:59 asciilifeform err, nginx there, presently. interestingly, set up as experiment 'wsgi', python's equiv. of php's 'mod-php', and made ~no measurable diff !
22:00 asciilifeform actual generation of e.g. current /log, takes 0.073s !
22:01 asciilifeform approx 0.2s is eaten by transmission on net from BingoBoingostan to my chair; the rest is eaten by the www server somehow
22:03 asciilifeform cachism is apparently red herring, the proggy is actually fast enuff. there is parasitism in the loop.
22:05 asciilifeform reason why never noticed this effect with phuctor, is that its pages are small
22:07 asciilifeform i'ma have to set whole orchestra up on a box w/ classic apache, to see whether same thing
22:08 asciilifeform ( and if cures, move dulap entirely to classic apache. back in the old days went w/ 'nginx' because slightly moar miserly re memory )
~ 33 minutes ~
22:41 * asciilifeform squeezed out a bit of the delay via knob-turning but this is still ridiculous
22:44 * asciilifeform bbl,meat
