I would like to move away from that eventually. support my ideas post on the subject T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I wouldn't think rawcolor gmcp mode would have any impact on your other environment T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I think it might T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: my understanding is that CMUD users tend to not use rawcolor mode T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I use it for a number of reasons, one of which is that it's actually less data T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: it's also easier to read T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: You raise your eyebrow at Ol' Dirty Fiendish.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if you use the rawcolor mode you still have to do something with it. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I think my only possible response to that statement is "yes, obviously" T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I don't find @YG@yo@Yl@yd easier to read than Gold T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: but in code you have escape sequences, not color T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I do? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if I capture to variable, it captures it styled, no escape sequences needed in my code T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: so my question is: What do you gain, then? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: Anaristos: I'm not sure I understand your question. Obviously you have to do something with gmcp data. But that's a given. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: but I guess that's a difference between our clients...MUSH has that weird workaround just to echo back text with original styles T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: mushclient text styleruns are weird T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: and make a lot of things kind of painful T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if you are looking for how the mud is presenting the data, then rawcolor might work for you. But gmcp will pass the color codes when appropriate. Though they are ansi not mud. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I think I would use rawcolors rather than what the original capture script did with the styles T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the only time I am interested in colors is when dealing with inventory.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Redryn Tech: since all the tech savvy people are here - in mushclient, if i just want to access gmcp room data occassionally, would it be more efficient to do a getpluginvariable and get it from another plugin, or go through the whole onpluginbroadcast, loading into tables etc that's detailed on the wiki?

Why strip the color code? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Again, otherwise the rooms aren't searchable. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Redryn Tech: do you type mapper find a @bdark @Bblue @wroom? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: I do! T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, actually it would. But you are missing the point. Those are colors are part of the name. If it weren't then all room names would have color codes. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: anaristos doesn't use mushclient, so probably not :) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Actually, I type mapper find %e[1;35mRed room%e[0m T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: gmcp sends color codes in room names when they are part of the name string.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Redryn Tech: correct, but those are most unwieldy to handle T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the weather rooms with colors in it are not a fluke, the ansi codes are part of the name. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: see, that's where rawcolors would be more difficult...I don't have to strip colors without using rawcolors, but would have to add code to strip if I used rawcolors T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: right, because raw colors are "unnatural" :) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if I capture {rname}(.*?) (or the gmcp variable), I can echo it back to myself and it'll display in full color...if I shove it into a comparison, sql statement, etc, it'll just be plain text T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: much nicer way to deal with the colors :-) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: right, I keep my inventory data with the color sequence (though I also keep it with it stripped) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: another advantage of the color sequences is that you can display them anywhere that accept ansi. Not just your mud client. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: "anywhere that accept ansi" is nowhere that I care about T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: be that as it may :) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you certainly can't paste back to aardwolf in ansi T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: actually you can ;-) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: usefully?

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: zmud has had that as a built-in feature as long as I can remember T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: why not? You are not actually pasting back to aardwolf, you are pasting back to your client. It does the displaying. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: zmud's feature is to copy ansi into aardwolf color codes T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: yes T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: that's not what I'm talking about T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: tbh, what you're talking about doesn't matter T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, you can have it decode the aardwolf colors for you. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the USER, and the SCRIPTER, pastes ansi to the MUD T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: they're not dealing with decodes or encodes, they're just pasting colorful captures, and it works T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: when you add aard color codes to a string and send it to the mud, it echoes it back with ansi color codes. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: that's a feature built into zmud that actually does the conversion on copy, not on paste T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you won't get the right result by copying ansi escape sequences from somewhere else T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: when the string arrives from the mud, it already has the ansi codes in it. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: you can have zmud translate outbound strings, though. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I thought we were talking about "anywhere that accepts ansi" the zmud input bar doesn't T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, what other text-based color code standard is there? Even xterm is an extension of ansi. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Ol' Dirty Fiendish smirks. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: html :-) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: iirc that's what mushclient's logs use T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I believe only as an option T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, html. But html gets mapped over to ansi since it is a descriptive language. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Ol' Dirty Fiendish snorts. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: nod, it's optional if you want color T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I'm not sure what you're calling "only a descriptive language". ansi escape sequences are "only descriptive" T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: go ahead and snort, but I bet you that all the program does is take the html color codes and generate ansi sequences. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the only way to have color logs from mushclient (without programming it yourself) is html T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, let me ask you this. How do you think that the html code is emitted? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: anywho, this went on a wild tangent from "hey, what will mushclient enable/disable on me?" T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: seriously T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Undertaken Anaristos goes, "Heh." T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: ana, how many colors does ansi standard give? html gives more :-) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: so no, html isn't just converting into ansi T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: absolutely. But look at the charts. Even the extra colors can be described using ansi. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no, they can be described using not-ansi T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: for all questions of "why" just see https://code.google.com/p/aardwolfclientpackage/wiki/AardwolfColors#Why_do_you_use_both_the_American_and_British_spellings_of_%22 T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if it's not 16 colors, it's not ansi T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, esc[x;y;zm is not standard ansi but it is ansi :) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: including xterm T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no, it's ansi-esque T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: using the same beginning/escape characters doesn't make it ansi...ansi just laid a good groundwork that could be built upon T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: ansi color escape codes are a standard fixed set of sequences, not a generalized arbitrary color syntax T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, I'll have to look into that. You are saying that programs that interpret html colors send something directly to the graphics card and don't use any ansi-like intermediate sequences. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: which is why xterm 256 is a thing at all T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: why would a graphics card interpret text? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, xterm is way out there if you ask me :) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: not text, color T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: colored text T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it sends to the rendering engine...your graphics cards don't use ansi T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: remember, graphics cards speak in 16.7 million colors... T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: put THAT into ansi T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: or more T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: could be 24 million T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: ascii stupid question, get a stupid ansi...

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: whatever T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I understand that.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: that would start another argument, Fiendish. Eyes are analog, not digital. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: irrelevant T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: analog vs digital doesn't change how discrete they are(n't) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: no it isn't. To say that the eye can't distinguish it is saying that the eye is digital. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no it isn't T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: rendering engine is the code that actually gets the graphics card to display the color. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the eye can't distinguish something at a million DPI, but it's still analog T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: we don't know that, Abe. That's the assumption because there is no way to actually measure what the eye does when it sees what it sees. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the ear can't hear the difference between 100.0000000000001 and 100.0000000000002 Hz, but it's still analog T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: yes we do, and yes there is T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: no, it is still an assumption. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: based on some measurements, true. But maybe someday the measurements will improve. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: we have to assume that our measuring equipment is getting us the correct data. But the equipment was designed by making certain assumptions that can only be proven true, empirically. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if you want to pretend that that's true, then I'll simply qualify it to say that "the human eye connected to the human brain cannot distinguish"... T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: anyway :) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, and I ask you to prove it.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and how would you know? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: and I'd ask you to find a single human being that can point to the 1 pixel on a screen which is one red value higher than the rest of the screen ;-) T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: we live in an era where our equipment is sufficiently precise and accurate such that we can measure time with drift of 1 second every 3.7 billion years. I prefer to not declare out of hand that our degrees of measurement are not yet good enough. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, I would probably not find one. But we already know that the eye as a minimum data range. So 1 pixel is not acceptable. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it absolutely is acceptable T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the eye is analog T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: it can see infinitely-small differences T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: or so you say T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: technically a pixel is analog T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: my pixels have blurry edges T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: every era says that, Fiendish.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, I thnk VHS won partly because most consumers are unsophisticated. They'll buy anything that's shiny and cheap.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: you want 4 hours or barely viewable media, that's fine, I suppose. You can use the imagination to fill in the missing visual stuff. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seriously, Salvanas Tech: Barely viewable is exaggerating. We all survived on VHS video, and never complained.

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so, for instance, if i have a user account here and i visit some strange website that knows of an exploit in my browser which could make tmy processes search path, look for a downloaded file in my home directory, and change environment variables to search for those runtime libraries in that directory, and then knew which files are probably setuid on my program - they could like cause that suid program to run using the home directory files they placed there as function calls, and cause a remote shell or something to be set up T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: something like that's what i figure is some implications of having suid programs on your system, accessible to normal users T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: btw, here's the "exploit" i sent to druzil yesterday: http://i.imgur.com/ibZQj.gif T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: hah T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: is the song good? no-> nu metal T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: i was listening to electric wizard while checking the chart. worked like a charm T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: druzil, however, thought i'm an nsa agent trying to infiltrate his computer T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: where does megadeth fit into that?

T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: nsa agent not, they're probably alot of cool people most of the time, it's the shady characters that i look for, since i am possibly vulnerable to things like i mentioned and not many people have probably been to the link, the possibility is there - although unlikely, you don't typically come off as a trustworthy person - like that telnet disconnect you sent me, how could you form a raw telnet packet to send to me through the server? T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: that's some kind of bypass or administrative function T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i didn't have any core dump's listed in my log files T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: but did you have no-ops in your log files?

Stops a lot of potential hiding techniques. T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: yeah, i have another mahine i can scan this one from as well, i understand there's actually programs that listen for sequences of packets though, like you unlock a router by sending a cascade of packets to various closed or nonexistant ports, which is code for the router to open up to a connection T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i should download a copy of knoppix though, it's a good tool T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: slax is my fav live distro right now T3/r3/2011-07-01.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: The issue of trusting a router is why I run my own firewall box, rather than depending on the one on my adsl router.

The languages we had to learn ourselves.

T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Not at university level. It's not college. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: languages are always different in important ways. you can't just ignore what makes a particular language special when teaching T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you can't say "here's a loop and some numbers!" now do prolog! T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: No, you need to know logic programming to do prolog. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: You need to know about functional programming to do haskell. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: But learning a language constructs is really simple. Learning to program well, is hard. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Fair enough as you go on at uni you don't need as much hand holding, but the way you describe isn't far off from 'self-taught' programming... T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: in lua all arrays are dictionaries and indices are references unless explicitly deep copied. those are important considerations that affect how you program. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: and lua is a ridiculously simple language compared to, say, Java T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you can't *just* teach programming and then say "go write java!" T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Sure, but when I learned about data structures, we made them ourselves, from scratch. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you'll end up with crap code T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I'm primarily a java programmer myself, c/c++ also T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: And self taught java programmers make me cry T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I haven't written any Java in about 10 years.

T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: hmmm T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: btw fiendish, any luck with the no-portal room functionality in mapper speedwalks? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I haven't gotten around to testing the code for it yet T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Have you gone with 'goto without portals', or flagging rooms as no-portal? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I haven't gone with either yet T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: but spartacus has suggested some code for it that I have yet to really look at T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: a flag disabling portals is probably the best route. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: how do you figure T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Easiest, maybe, but it wouldn't yield the fastest paths T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: because it can be toggled. When the sw generator sees the flag it doesn't look at the portal table. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: BTW, when I went to the uni, java didn't exist. But I can still learn it, because I took a course on object oriented programming. Languages come and go, that's why you need to learn the concepts, not just a specific language. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: And yet if you run out of the no-portal room into one which allows portals, you can shorten the speedwalk considerably T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if you have a portal and can use it, that is the shortest speedwalk, but there are times when you don't want to use portals. Like in prison rooms. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: what do you guys think of this firefly bsd system? i looked over it and seen it's last release was on my b-day, lol, but it doesn't seem to be very useful for drives < 50 gb or so, and then the HAMMER filesystem is built for exobyte sized drives T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: And Ranrr my point is you should learn *both* - concepts and the concrete languages in which to apply the, T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: sure, Vakieh, but now you are specializing the sw algorithm. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: them* T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it seems pretty cool looking at the description of features, virtual kernels and stuff T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: What are you going to use it for? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the sw algorithm treats the room where the portal lands as the starting point, nothing else. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: If you are in a prison room, the best thing to do is run *out* of the prison room, and then use a portal T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: can't you just upload the search problem to the cloud and have them work it out? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: sure, human being, that's easy for you to do. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: even if you were correct, Vakieh, and I am not saying one, the option of disabling portals is not a bad idea. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: looks like you could make some money coding stuff for them, i seen they have a list of features that they have 'bounty's' on which can make a programmer some money T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I know, but it is the easy option, not the 'best' T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: it's not the easy option, it is AN option. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: to deny options is not best practice. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Except if their effects can be better achieved with a different option? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: just having a toggle to not use portals at all is the easy option. I think I'd have to add significant complexity to the pathfinding function to be able to check mid-path that the player started in a no-portal room but that it's ok to portal from 2 rooms away T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if you don't ever want to set the flag, more power to you. That's not a reason not to have it. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if you want to do that, Fiendish, that is commendable. But I don't think that practical speedwalks plop portals in the middle. Not necessary in Aardwolf anyway. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if you are going to use a portal in the middle of a speedwalk, why not start the speedwalk there anyway? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: the player may not know where the nearest free room is T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: If you can't use a portal at the beginning, it is *only* practical to plop them in the middle...I don't understand where you T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: you're coming from with that one??? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: responding to Fiendish's remark, Vakieh. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I think Vakieh is right. It's just not easy to do. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: is portal-ability flag in the mapper db already? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: no T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: the mud doesn't send that information, so you'd have to go room by room and add it manually :] T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: nonsense, Vakieh. Portals are start point fixers, nothing else. The pathfinder doesn't have to generate a speedwalk for a room reachable by a portal. So if you put a portal in the middle of a speedwalk, you might as well mark that as the beginning. There is no need to walk to a portal end enter it unless it is a room portal. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: ummm... except where you can't portal out of your starting room????? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: imo, the burden is on the player T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: even if you want to search suitable room to use a portal, that is another code, shouldn't be part of the pathfinder. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: maybe T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: pathfinders couldn't care less whether they work in Aardwolf, or Africa. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: ooh good idea, can you make the code work in Africa? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: whether you can portal out of a room is just a dynamic exit weight. it's still part of the path information T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: right, but you don't need weight all you need is to check a flag. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: that way you allow the player to decide whether to use portals or not. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Say I'm at a campaign mob's room (no portal), killed it, want to move on to the next - mapper goto would in theory run me out of the no portal room(s), portal closest to the next room, then run me there T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you have given me an idea, though, about how to make this work T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: So the entire speedwalk is run-portal-run, instead of just portal-run T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: it can be done, Vakieh. But that burden shouldn't be placed on the code. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Why not??? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: code it with chaos, if no portal, walk random direction, try again :) T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: If it can be done, I mean? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: yes, it can be done, and actually it is rather easy to do if you keep track of room flags. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: no need to walk around. You use the pathfinder to find a path to the nearest room without a prison flag. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: treat the prison flag as a wall. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: that may not actually be the shortest path, though T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: I know it can be done, time and care factor willing, I don't understand why you wouldn't want that functionality, though T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: but that should be an option. There may be a time when you don't want to take (dis)advantage of that option. It should be a toggle. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: finding the nearest non-prison room first may actually result in a suboptimal path T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I would tend to agree, Fiendish. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: there is no way to weigh such nodes. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: odds are reasonable that it would be optimal, though. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if the path if short enough. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: there is a way, it just requires finding more paths T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: take the case of the Planes... T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: there is only one room where you can use the portal. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: I thought there was about 24... T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: That's what I don't get Anaristos - when would you not want to take advantage? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: If it properly decides between direct run and portalling - if it counts each room movement as one move, I don T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: If it properly decides between direct run and portalling - if it counts each room movement as one move, I don't see why it wouldn't T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I give you an example... Let's say you have a chaos portal (level 1) which takes you to a high level area. That chaos portal is good for a lower level area, but if you are not high enough you get killed every time you use the portal. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: So change the level limit on the portal? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you can already level lock portals T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: oh, ok, that's different from setting a flag saying "this time don't use portas"? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Yes, as it's permanent T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: no, it isn't permanent. It's toggle. I clock on a button that sets the flag, I click on the button again and it resets it. It's trivial. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Not to mention you may have another portal which is ok at that level T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: click* T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: no, the level lock is permanent T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: it's a temporay flag. The pathfinder looks at it and if it's set it doesn't generate portal exits. If it's reset it does. Simple. I do that now with my sw generator. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Yes, but the level lock does what you are describing in a much better way - allowing for longer, but level-appropriate, portals to be used T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I have 2 commands, getsw and getswnp. getswnp sets the flag and when it's done it resets it. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and that is all it does, it sets the flag and calls getsw. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Again, I think that is the easy option for the original problem, but not the best option in the vast majority of cases T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I rather it be an easy option than not have the option at all. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and what's more, it requires no change in the pathfinder. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, other than having it look at the flag at the beginning. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I wonder who the remaining 6 unidentified clients are. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: what, rather T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: doesn't mxit give multiple hits? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: mxit has its own category T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ah, I see T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: maybe the java or flash clients. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: 8 people using them? seems a bit much T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, on my first day here that's what I used. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the 2nd time, the first time I used telnet :) T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I spent 2 weeks in Xyl, doing the AQ and creating a map :) T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: mis :) T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: anybody have any idea where the lseek constants would be defined at on linux? i see the fseek constants defined in /usr/include/stdio.h T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: they are the same, but i don't know where they get those numbers from T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Looks like unistd.h, at least on my box. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Wrapped in an ifndef so they don't stomp on the ones from stdio if those are defined already.

T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: How weird. I'm in room 19450. mapper thisroom says there's an exit downwards here. There is none. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}TrEz Tech: could it be level locked T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: unlikely.. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Not level locked -- it's entrance to Wildwood, where I can go T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: It's a mapper bug I'm told T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seriously, Salvanas Tech: looks like it.

T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: wildwood is a replacement area from antharia...that means reused room UIDs...you probably didn't purge T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Right click the room on the map (not the graphical map) and create a down exit to '123' T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: WinkleWinkle seems to think you have the right idea. T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Then right click again and 'delete exit' then pick the down one - fixed T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seriously, Salvanas Tech: why 123? T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: no reason T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: but blank won't work T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seriously, Salvanas Tech: oh. why not just delete it?

T3/r4/2011-07-07.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: honestly, the map legend is pretty short and easy to remember.

T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kyriantha Tech: it needs to send to execute if you have an alias with an alias. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: I think so, if I'm understanding what you're doing...are you using an alias or a variable for 'ohand'? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sommeil Tech: I just made an alias called 'ohand' which current contains my dual wield id# T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kyriantha Tech: otherwise if you do send to world, it just processes the raw command, and since your ohand isn't a mud command it'll choke. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: You're calling that from another alias? You'll need to set it to Execute otherwise it won't expand 'ohand'.

T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Put simply, SendTo of 'World' sends it direct to the mud without substituting aliases or anything, SendTo of 'Execute' sends it as if you typed it at the input box, so does substitute aliases T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sommeil Tech: hmm, the portal alias works, but it's still trying to dual ohand instead of expanding it even as an execute type alias T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Invite Tiana Tech: which mud client was the one for android that most ppl use?

Does it work similar to the cexit stuff? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sommeil Tech: yeah pretty much. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Great, I'll have to play with it some time. I've got my portals set up as individual aliases at the moment.

T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Not at the moment, I use runto then mapper area and goto for quests and area-based cps, mapper find, runto then mapper goto for room-based cps T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: I find that 'mapper find' sometimes takes too long to come back with a list when it has to find a fairly common name and has to work out how to get there for a lot of matches, my machine's a bit slow.

T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Should be, it's worked in the past and I don't remember doing anything to turn it off, last release it told me about was 1079, I thought you were having a break :) T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: hmm T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: try reloading the plugin :) T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: it will only check for updates when you either reload the plugin or restart mushclient, btw T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I'll eventually integrate the idle checker to see if it's safe to pop up messages at other times, but not yet T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Thanks, somehow the plugin wasn't getting loaded, works fine now, must be somehow related to my last update, I did copy the state folder over, could that somehow have done it? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: hard to say T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: did you copy your old world file over? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: the world file is what determines whether plugins get loaded T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Nope, followed the instructions on the aard site, copied the mapper db and states folder, then imported from the old world file T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: hmm T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: not sure, then. see if it happens again, I guess T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Ok, I'll keep a lookout for it happening when I upgrade, it's getting late so I'll try the new stuff out tomorrow T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sommeil Tech: so going a couple steps back, if I have an alias(a1) within an alias(a2). which one is world and which is an execute? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Reaper Myrkul Tech: if you want an alias to run another alias in its code, you need to send to execute T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Reaper Myrkul Tech: send to world sends the commands directly to the mud, send to execute runs them through the parser, as if you had typed it on the command line T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Might make more sense to use a variable for some of what you're doing, btw, then just remember to tick the 'expand variables' check box, then you wouldn't need to worry about execute and world T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sommeil Tech: sounds list axactly what I need to do. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sommeil Tech: like as well maybe T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Variables tend to be a better way to do small things which only get used from aliases, less likely to get hit accidentally (or exploited by bad users) and probably slightly more efficient too since you don't have to stick the alias through the parser with 'execute' T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sommeil Tech: ok i'll pick your brain more about it in a second :) T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: FYI, even if you do send to script, you can always send things to the world with Send() T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: think of it this way, though... T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: send to world does exactly that. everything in the box is sent literally. send to execute pretends like you typed all of that stuff into your command line, which means that aliases will fire but complex script functions are off limits. send to script means everything is code and you can send things to the world with Send("something here") T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Thanks, hadn't really thought about the difference between execute and script, useful to know, I've not really tried putting script functions in aliases yet, that'll probably open up all sorts of interesting possibilities :) T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sad Panda Kalista Tech: any reason why the gmcp mapper is trying to use portals with a level lock above my level? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: it shouldn't if you've set it right T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: what level lock are you setting? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: no, what level lock did you set it for? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sad Panda Kalista Tech: well for instance, I entered a level lock of 80 for the dread tower portal T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: and you're tier 7, so what's the problem? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sad Panda Kalista Tech: but when I mapper goto hatchling aerie, it attempts to use it T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: did you -70 from the level of the portal? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: just use the level of the portal as the levellock, tiers are calculated in the script automatically. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: your effective usable level is 82, which is higher than 80. the mapper takes your tier into account when deciding whether to hold a portal T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kyriantha Tech: is there a global quest report plugin for mush? something that says how many gq's are left etc, and what brackets? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sad Panda Kalista Tech: oh okay, thanks, that answers my question T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kyriantha Tech: and hopefully non-miniwindow-based. :) T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mendaloth Tech: Yeah finger jhav for the gq cycle plugin. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: why non-miniwindow-based? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: Kyriantha, google it? Many people have gq cycles T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: some people have small screens, fiendish =P T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kyriantha Tech: because I'm blind and mini-windows suck for screen readers. :) T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: <---- T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I see T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: ah, that too T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: there's an interesting quirk T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: hence why non of my plugins use mini-windows T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: hey Kyriantha, do blind people say "I see" when they mean "I understand"? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: isn't that just a quirk of the English language? Everyone says I see even though what they mean is I understand... T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kyriantha Tech: sure. in fact blind people say things like I'm gonna watch a movie or watch TV, even though they can't see it. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I feel weird about saying that I'm going to read a book when what I mean is listen to the audiobook T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: thanks for the heads up on Jhav's plugin.. it's perfect T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mendaloth Tech: Yeah it's pretty sweet! T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: audiobooks are great for the hour-long drive home...I listen to the morning show on the way in, audiobook on the way home :-) T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: but between the DVR at home and the skip-back-15-secs on audiobooks, I get annoyed that the car radio doesn't have a skip back feature :P T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: ever heard of HD radio? It's practically a DVR for sounds T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: could probably get a great one for the same price as a really cheap computer, though they do make them for as low as $50. T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: not worth it for just the morning commute, which is about the only time I listen to the radio T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: the car radio does already have RDS, so we get the artist/song info on the display T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}BobTheGreat Tech: Why does print (string.gmatch ("i am great", "%a+")(3)) print "i" not "great"?

T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}BobTheGreat Tech: Lua, btw T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: what is the (3) trying to modify? T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: string.gmatch ("i am great", "%a+") properly should give "i", then "am", then "great"...but you don't have a loop for it, so it's just print on the first one, "i" T3/r4/2011-07-09.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}BobTheGreat Tech: Yeah so I wanted to access the 3rd output of the loop by adding a (3) at the end.

He'll need to delete the chardb.mdb file (I'm none too sure of the filename now, though). ZMud will recreate the install-default version, and he'll need to remake all the sessions he had (all his old files are there, they just need to be reassigned to the newly-created session) T3/r4/2011-07-13.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Someone Semoene Tech: here is his error: error: access violation at 0x76D42200 (tried to write to 0x00050FAC), program terminated.

T3/r4/2011-07-14.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: the first it seems, is when your symbol's get associated with a library file at linking time and a dynamic linker is loaded by the kernel from the header information, to load some functions located in a library file into your address space, before executing the program T3/r4/2011-07-14.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: here, does the entire library get loaded into memory and grafted into the address space of the executable, or only that printf function in that example, by the dynamic linker, in this first type?

T3/r4/2011-07-14.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: teh whole file gets grafted, or is loaded into memory? i can see it all being pulled into memory for lookups and stuff, but if a program only uses two functions out of it, it could be either way seemingly T3/r4/2011-07-14.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: loaded into memory.

T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i understand what the flag is for and all, but with as having a -mpic flag as well, and object file's being discussed instead of assembler output in the tldp howto, i'm curious T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: -fPIC might be the default too, i used -fpic to examine the output against the default, so it may be using a optimization kind of addressing instead of the default position independent T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: if you know about that stuff i mean, -mpic for gas and -fpic for gcc, -mpic is automatically assumed at every assembly of any gcc output (as gcc uses it right?) unless gcc generate's position dependent code by default, for it's virtual memory layout T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: virtual memory is not memory. It's disk space. Using it is a last resort, since it ends up fragging the hard drive (constant writes to the disk).

T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: maybe it is assembler directive's that it includes in its assembly output to hand to the assembler that it means, but then what does the gas manual page say? -mpic , generate position independent code into object format - automatically assumed, so i don't know what really to make of it right now, a position independent assembly to position independent object code by the gcc -fPIC -c T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: sure you can, Rarr. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: cause there seems to be two level's of this position independentness happening since the manual pages for both gcc and gas mention it T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Not from userspace.

The only thing that will stop you are the segment constraints. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: the kernel might even have virtual memory if the memory relocator is a hardware thing mapping physical to virtual addresses T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but the kernel has a constant set of memory under which all other processes have theirs allocated (in their full illusion's) within, from what i understand T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: you look into the segment register, Druzil. It can't lie :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: You think you have physical memory, but in fact you have virtual memory.

Windows uses a flat memory environment, which means it probably maps each cpu to the maximum 4Gb.

I was about to pull a back in my day line referencing it :P T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i noticed in this 1995 article on the ELF file format, as well as a document from tldp, that the authors seem to indicate that all ELF program's would require some external library function's to operate by default - but i can build an assembly file that causes /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 to segfault when i try to execute it with, cause it's static T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so it is possible to not be linked to other thing's - redhat they say, keeps a ln program that is statically linked in /sbin/sln , because incase some dynamic libraries get fried that ln links to, they can relink them T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it would be good to have a shell like that for a defaults ystem too T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: (from what i can see), if you build an application using only system call's without any c wrapper functions T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i tried winlinux first iirc, then arch linux and then settled on debian T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: winlinux went extinct a long time ago, it used to install in a window's partition and then in a file in window's set up a filesystem T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i never installed open bsd, but installed netbsd 1.5 from floppy disks on a old pentium 1 computer, and i installed openbsd twice to use - T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i mean freebsd* T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: that program is a nightmare to install, i wiped out my linux partition trying once T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: openbsd is great for firewalls and routers, I use it all the time T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it is a good system and has alot of documentation , regardless of what kind of stuff you can discuss other people saying about it T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: a few years ago i remember a debian security vulnerability in openssh based on the output of a valgrind program, which detected a memory leak that was purposefully put there by an openssh developer in openbsd, but not documented why T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so he figured he'd patch the software, i think, and that resulted in a vulnerability - so them guys must know alot about what they're doing T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but build mainly for laptops and server's T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i like something in the middle where i can play with all of the advanced stuff until i knock myself out, but still have a easy environment when i want - like ubuntu has T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: this strip utility is pretty wild, i cut down a 1450 byte hello world program into 450 bytes with a single command T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: you can actually see a tonne of stuff with the readelf command, even constants that are replaced by the assembler at assembly time T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: which is pretty neat, a record of all of the mnemonics used kept in the elf file by default, the strip command discards things like that and makes them smaller T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: have any of you tried the prelink program? it seems like it'd be useful for alot of things T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i imagine things like md5sum's and databases for system verification would be affected though, since the contents would be changed T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: never heard of it, Druzil. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it's a program that prefetche's library's make's them loaded into the same address space every time through, and modifies the header's of executable file's and those library's to facilitate it's functionality (or something like that) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: supposedly it has both security benefits and vulnerabilities, depending on how you configure your system, but some other system's like mac os x have used a similar functionality T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it'll randomize where they're loaded at but keeps them at that random address until a time set by the administrator, where they can be relocated - the wikit alks about using libc to locate where is the other lib's and stuff, lol, and security settings for suid executable's by making them Position independent, i guess it's kind of like control over where you place stuff in memory to some degree T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but with the faster library load times for dynamically linked files T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Druzil: damn you for making me look up Debian again... :P Now I am sad I have no money to go to Banja Luka for DebConf on such short notice :( T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so for something like a program that checks all of your program file's and sensitive informations for alteration's in md5 checksum's, this program running would set off all of those alarm's unless it were handled as an atomic type of operation, updating your security checking database with the modified elf header's of the file's with al og of you're typing the command in T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: yeah, some of these people have all kinds of conferences, i'm probably too anti-social to ever go to one, lol, unless it's just a speech or anonymous gathering T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: It would have been fun, and Mark Shuttleworth would have been there on at least the first day :P T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i'll just see if i can write any useful program's or patch some existing one's and that'll be what i did T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: But anyway, I shall probably install Debian separately on my laptop to play with it :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: what do you guys think of the gnu hurd and possible applications with this cloud computing? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i notice on their website some people seem interested in funding it there, hurd i read is basically designed to treat multiple system's as a single unit, distributing problems among computer's T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but alot more of course, they never finished it T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Technology is moving away from clusters, more towards virtual machines instead.

It will take designers and programmers who don't think in straight lines. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the way to do it is you have a master cpu that has the main responsibility for allocating cpus for work and hading them the work to do. The other cpus are autonomous once they get the workload. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Also, it enables things like moving between physical computers seamlessly. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and that master cpu would maybe want a bigger on chip cache so it doesn't have to use the memory bus to keep track of the process states (or virtual machine states, lol) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: so if this job takes 7 cpus, 7 cpus get allocated and the go off on their own to do the work... T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: And you can adapt your physical machines to the load needed by the virtual hosts, so you can power down those physical boxes that idle. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: though, technically, that isn't concurrent programming either. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: And if a physical host is malfunctioning, you can move the virtual hosts easily. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: yes, that's right. Ranrr. The master operating system handles cpus just is they were peripherals, which they actually are. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so you might save a little power too, that's a benefit T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: you put the cpus in hibernation when they are idle. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Exactly. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Not to mention disaster recovery mechanisms. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: All large datacenter installations are virtualized today. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: For the reasons I mentioned and a few more. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: though the secondary operating systems just issue a wait instruction when there is nothing to do, so the hibernation my be locally handled. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: of course both the motorola and intel chips have a limit of 16 cpus, not really enough. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and the system handling function's that always are running the background on a physically controlling master operating system would still be required to keep the entire system in a consistent state, but those kind of tasks by a hosted operating system - it could maybe go into hibernation instead of running constantly and managing its unused resources T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: It's managed on higher level than that. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Think server farm, not application. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: tech or get the illusion no time passed at all, which is maybe what they do, continue from this point T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I am hoping that whomever implements this is not thinking of writing it c++ or something like that. This is where assembly is needed. You can't afford to delay management by executing useless instructions. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: that stuff is very complex software, lol, i don't know where i'd be gin to look at how they made it T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: kernel programming is 99.999% C with minor bits in assembly T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: if you can write an opsys for a single cpu you can write it for multiple cpus. Only the master operating system is going to be different in some respects. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: each cpu has a copy of the non-master operating system. They run autonomously once work is assigned to them. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: to add variable processor speed's onto a single chip, or cache sizes, would that be like trying to address byte's of different size? this one over here's 7 that one's 9, etc T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i mean, is that why they don't do stuff like that? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: in fact, the non-master operating system is identical to the master one, it just has some features disabled. This allows for passing the master baton among the cpus. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i read memory units are the same size for ease of use and less complexity, i'm not sure if other computer components are the same or not - like i have a spare pci card here with some on chip memory and a processor, i want to send it some numbers to crunch for a background process i don't want to feed to my cpu T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Not necessarily, this depends on which virtualization is used. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: For instance, with vmware this is not true. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but can stuff like that be done? it's different processor's and different size's and stuff than the main one T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: let's say you have 2 arrays 8x8 and you want to multiply them, the job requires 8 cpus running in parallel. The 8x8 multiplication can be done in one pass. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Hellfyre Tech: does anyone know how to configure mag for mudlet, it is fine it just doesnt show a mini map at all or the chat channels on the right side window T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the master cpu allocates the 8 cpus pass each one of them the element where i and j correspond to the cpu number (0 - 7), etc T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: there is an old machine that does that already, Druzil. It's called the Illiac IV aka the octopus. The Illiac was never finished but I believe that it had 64 cpus, the target was 256 cpus. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: but the technology was primitive, it could be done now if they wanted to, rather easily. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Parallell computing is simpler to do if you divide the problem into small chunks and distribute them over simple computers. E.g. SETIOME T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: SETI at HOME T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: right that's why is mentioned the 8x8 matrix multiplication. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i never really researched in depth (cause i'd have to in depth to see) if you can use a hardware component totally out of context or not - like my pci card example, i have a ageia physx processor here, and on it's a set of memory and a processor - if i wanted to send a process to that card to calculate the operations of, could i do that, and bring it's input back into my main machine for consideration by the processor on what to do as a result? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: each of the 8 cpus makes one of the new elements of the result array. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it does come to mind though, since basically it is a minicalculator on my bigger calculator, lol T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and it doesn't do anything T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Nice in theory. Not really done that way in RL tho :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, as it turns out, they can't really do it because intel didn't design multiple cores to be run in parallel. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: one core is running at a time? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: right now, the way it works when C0 strobes and gets a response from C1, C1 becomes the master for the duration, and so forth. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: right, you need to make bigger threads for it to work well T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: if each CPU did a million calculations instead, it would work T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: for parallelism to work, C0 should never relinquish the master role unless it is varying itself offline. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: it must assign work and ignore the other cpus working until they strobe back saying that they are done. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Don't worry about it, in RL nobody does parallellism with assembler. Work in userspace instead. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and when all the other cpus are busy, C0 assigns itself mono work. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: that's why the suck, Ranrr :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, see that's the big problem. I have 4 cores and I have to wait for A to finish in order to get B going. That is a waste of cpus. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i think one way this here one processor at a time deal, if i understand you right, would be that for each instruction being executed on each register, by the time the register reaches back to the first a new set of registers can be present in a process switch - i'm not sure if i understand it right though, and that switch occurred while the existing set of register's was operated on by the current process and the next one was loaded into the vacated registers T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: You have to be pragmatic. Don't expect everything to be optimized for a specific problem that doesn't really apply in RL. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: threads are also old technology. It makes me think that the opsys developers are just lazy bums. Intel chips have hardware multi-tasking. Threads are software artifacts. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Abstraction is the key to useful software engineering. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: mayb so, but anyone who thinks that his software can beat out any piece of hardware that does the same thing, he needs some rest. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Of course not, that's why we have asics and fpgas for real time stuff and performance. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: so threading is never going to be as fast or as efficient as hardware multitaskng. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: but it takes less knowledge of how the machine works to implement threads, because all the technology was developed 40 years ago. So it is solid. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: IBM pioneered multi-tasking in the late 60s and through to the 90s T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: If you want to work with optimizations like this, you should look into a career in making embedded systems. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and there was not hardware to handle it so it was done purely through software. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the devices are too small :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and I feel affronted at the idea of driving coffee makers :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: That's the point. Small devices need more optimizations. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Embedded systems are everywhere. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: so why do they write the code in Java? That's not what I call optimized code. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: You need to be pragmatic. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Not everything is about making the most optimized system possible. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: yes, I understand. It takes less brains to use Java than native instructions. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: There are other considerations. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I think they are just lazy and cheap. A systems programmer costs about 40% more than an applications programmer. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: You need to make money. Writing assembler costs way more than writing java. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Exactly. They write in java because it's cheaper to hire java programmers, and java's 'good enough' for most consumer products. Nobody cares when the button press takes 50 extra milliseconds to open a window. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: With that attitude, I wouln't hire you. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i wonder if there is any system out there that is totally optimized, like an operating system - not a tweak in the world that could make it stronger T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: or faster T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: only if you use inexperienced programmers (i.e. programmers that don't cost much). An experienced assembly language programmer can match a higher level programmer in speed of implementation, and since it will less time debugging he will win out at the end. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Real engineers consider the cost of things before they decide on solutions. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: No, an assembler programmer will always take longer. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: but you see, Ranrr, that's the big problem right there. If engineers knew how to code then they would see the point. But they look at programs as a opaque resource and miss the point. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: And he will make more bugs . T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Ana, even assuming you're right, you're assuming that companies are out there to make optimized product. They're not. They're out to make money. If they can produce a java product cheaper than an asm one and sell it, they will. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Nobody makes assembler applications anymore. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Why would they? It's expensive, gives no big advantage and it will be more buggy. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: wrong, Ranrr. The assembly programmer will write as many lines of code as the application programmer which means that his program will be much smaller and easier to debug. Easier to debug because nothing is hidden from his sight. He knows the state of the machine at the start and end of each instruction. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: more buggy? Do you know what you are saying? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: 1 line of assmbler does not equal one line of java or C T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Anaristos, I won't touch assembly until I have a typechecker for it. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Yes, I know hat I am saying. Bugs are a function of lines of code. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Haskell-quality one, I mean. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: More code = more bugs T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: 1 line of Java or C will probably generate 100 lines of assembly code, and it will generate that many lines each time the same statement is written. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: do any of you know why things like shadow password's on system's are stored only in ascii printable characters? like if you cat /etc/shadow you may get a list of encrypted but decypherable character's - while this here functionality may be extended to take in all the 255 possibilities in a byte T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so you have a new level of obfuscation T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Because you want to be able to edit the shadow file with a text editor T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: there is less code in an assembly language programmer. If you write the same program in assembly and C++, you will have the assembly program be about 10% the size of the C++ program. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and the encryption function's themselve's, maybe a system can individually create a seed value for their implementation of the cryptographical function's that is different from other system's, since the decryption is all done on the server side, it shouldn't matter to clients T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: cause the first coupel values in a shadowed password gives away its encryption method by default i think T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Anaristos, on the minus side, there is no encapsulation, no modularity, no code segregation, no type system. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i think it could make for more difficult passwords to break , even if you actually use rot16 to encrypt them T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: you think that an assembly programmer stumbles around writing code. He has a library in his head of code that does specific things, proven code, code that he has memorized or knows so well he can modify in his sleep for a particular purpose, only at some key point he really has to be creative. That's about the only part of the code that needs to be debugged. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Jhav nods at Cizra. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: the computer program's that put those entries in /etc/shadow read number's, some as string's T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it's not really meant to be edited by a administrator, but if worse comes to worse and you lock out root, you could still x out the nonprintable characters in between the : and the : T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: How many years have you worked with commercial assembly programming? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, I started writing assembly when I was 17. I am 37. So that's 20 years. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: And what kind of applications do you write? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I prefer system level code, but I can and have done everything. Including database management. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: And someone actually pays you to write database management code in assembler? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: what you must remember that an assembly language programmer does more than write code, he has the pulse of the machine, he knows exactly the state of the machine at any given instant of time. He thinks about timing estimates, he thinks about cpu cycles, he knows that he can get an advantage if the instruction is executed at the leading edge of a cycle if he makes sure the next instruction gets executed at the trailing edge. There are so many little things that the assembly language programmer sees that is just hard to explain. Application level programmers are blind. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and the cracker would have to figure out your algorithm type with even that obfuscated by selection, and then by the 255-value encryption T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: mis T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: yes, Ranrr. They wanted to beat the second law of thermodynamics :) they wanted speed and efficiency. Of course, they didn't get it, but it turned out to be faster and more compact code than the garbage that is sold around by the biggies. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: In my experience, usually the performance problems come from bad algorithms, not from constant factors in code speed. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I mean, how can you look at a program that takes Gbs to run in, what kind of crappy monstrosity is that?How can anyone call himself a programmer and write crap like that? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: see you think differently than I do. I see that this instruction takes 6 cycles and this one takes 4 cycles and they both end up doing that which I want. Which instruction do you think I will use? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I see you don't think in algorithms? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: The same one as gcc with your platform's optimization flags set? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: sure I do, but it takes instructions to implement the algorithm. See you are looking at the top of the mountain. I look at the mountain from the foot to the top. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: compiler optimization is based on an ideal. I optimize the code I have at hand based on what is going on at the time. The optimizer in a compiler always does the same things when it sees a pattern. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: well, let's just put it this way: I would never allow assembly code into the products I work with, because I want it to be maintainable and portable, I want it to be low in bugs and I have a limited budget. If I want speed, I use an expetienced C programmer. If I want real time performance, I use an fpga. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Yeah. And usually by choosing a better algorithm, you can get a hundredfold improvement, as opposed to twofold improvement in assembly. Sure, you could do both improvements, but leaving the gritty details to the compiler gives you more time and brainpower to think about algorithms. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Jhav Tech: The compiler optimization takes none of my time, works well, and allows me to ignore the specifics of which platform the program is running on. Unless I'm writing something very specific (embedded, for a particular supercomputer, etc) I'm not going to bother hand-tweaking asm for each and every thing I do. You can spend a lifetime making things run nanoseconds faster. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: Rarr, that is a very strange statement. What do you think? That once an assembly language programmer finishes his code and goes production that he goes back under the bridge and melds with the stonework? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: how can you say that assembly language programs are not maintainable? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: No. He's saying that when the result goes into production and the developer goes into maintenance mode, and later gets hit by a bus or hits on the receptionist, or whatever, and isn't there any more, you can't find another assembly programmer. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Jhav Tech: I can look at a well-written C++ program and know what it is doing. asm, not so much so. And I think that's universal. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Jhav Tech: Remember, maintainence isn't just you. It's the other folks who you're forcing to read and use your work. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: it's no effort to make things run nano-seconds faster. It's like shifting a gear with a manual transmission when the time is right. You just do it, you don't think about it. But of course, you probably have an automatic transmission :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I have manual, actually. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: And I have written machine code as well... and still I think Haskell is the best we currently have. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Anaristos, suppose you want to use a hash table in your program. What do you do? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Do you take the time to research them, to implement a good algorithm found in some fat book? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Do you link against some library not written in assembly? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: forcing to read? You think that everyone feels about assembly programming as you do :) You have been brainwashed by the industry who sees that assembly language programming just cuts into the profits because a) assembly programmers are more expensive and b) the programs they would sell would be so "tiny" that they couldn't justify the price. When the oracle server loads into memory it takes over 1Gb to settle down. I bet you could do the same thing with about 10Mb. But you couldn't impress anyone with something that small nowadays. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: as long as the library has standard linkage I couldn't care less how it was written. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: I call BS on that. If you could reproduce oracle in 10mb, you'd have to SHOOT people to keep them from crushing your building with their checkbooks. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: who would pay me to do it? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Jhav Tech: Oracle, for one. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Anaristos, aren't you contradicting yourself? Now you say that you don't care how your library is written. Wouldn't you want to rewrite it in assembly for maximum speed, minimum memory? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Anyone who uses a database for massive volumes of data. It's only 10mb, right? Do it and see. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: Windows used to be written in assembly language until 3.0, in 3.1 they went hybrid and added some C. Now it's all in C or one of its derivatives. Do you honestly believe that windows has to be that big? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I couldn't write a database server by myself in reasonable time. It would take a team. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Windows bloat isn't a function of language choice. There are plenty of stupid business decisions involved. See, the code they added to reproduce a bug to maintain compatibility with SimCity. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I've looked at code generated by the compilers. Sometimes, 10 or 20% of a routine is filled with no-ops. Intel wasn't very clever with no-ops, for one thing they don't execute in a single cycle, they access the address bus even though they don't fetch, in other words, no-ops waste both time and space, but compilers love to fill it up with no-ops. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: then there is the one I really like :) optimizers remove a subroutine because it's not necessary. But they leave the ENTER LEAVE pair of instructions and nothing in between. I would just remove the call. But no, the compiler still makes the call that returns immediately. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and there are hundreds and hundreds of those little gems all over your c++ code T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Now, Anaristos, do you know how much time a hundred of enter/leave pairs take? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Assuming a 1 GHz processor for simplicity, please tell us the time, or the number of clock cycles that you lose. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: writing a disk scheduler is hard enough in assembly language but at least you have a shot because you know how much time you have before the heads are back over the sector you want and you know how long it's going to take to execute your code. But no, let's write the scheduler in C++, that way we make sure that the disk spins idly for a while. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I don't know how much time I would lose without looking at the code. But even is it's a small amount, there is no reason to lose it. There is no way to get around the 2nd law of thermodynamics, that doesn't mean you throw efficiency out of the window instead of trying for a best compromise. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Okay. So here's the grand question: T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: You're spending N hours to write this stuff in assembly that would make M hours to write in some sane language. This means a waste of (N-M) hours T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, before you ask, why should there be any ENTER/LEAVE pairs? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Is your program going to accumulate N-M hours of wasted time by running those empty enter/leave pairs, over its whole lifetime? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: again you are assuming that I am a slow writer. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I'm assuming you're a slower writer than a high-level language user, yes. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: and you're assuming C programmers are slow writers T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: How much waste, or how long lifetime it takes for a program to waste even ONE hour by running those sub-perfectly optimized instructions? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I have routines that I have used hundreds of time, I don't even have to type it, I just open up the editor and paste the code. The way to start a program is standard the way to finish a program is standard. The way I get this type of object is standard, the way I pass data to that object is standard, there are very little surprises in the code. The only part that will be different from other programs is the core stuff that does what the program was intended to do. I look at my flowchart and the code flows. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Ah, so you prefer copy-paste programming. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ENTER push x pull x LEAVE why should I type that? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: What does the "pull" instruction do? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, it's pop on an intel chip... I've been working on another machine. But it reloads the stuff from the stack. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I'm curious... which machine? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the point that the preface and prologue of any subroutine will be the same. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: sorry, can't mention it. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Yeah, which means that in saner languages you can just omit it. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I could omit it, but you C++ compile will never do so. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Everything that stays the same is boilerplate and is a sign of bad language design T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: but that's unrelated to our discussion. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: what? So you think I should get creative when I save my registers... hmm T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: So let's come back. How much time are you actually winning? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I am not winning any time in the sense you mean. No. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: okay, cool. That pretty much disproves your point. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: No, because my goal is not to win anything, my goal is to write the best possible code for the target architecture, something C++ or F# will never be able to do. Now, let me say this, I can tolerate the use of a high level language for application work, but I think that using C++ or whatever to write a device driver is like using a tractor engine on a family car. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Soviet T-44 tractor used the same engine as Volga the luxuryish car. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Its gearing was just much lower. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: devices do concern themselves with timing. They see the world in square cycles. So there is no excuse. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, you can drive a Volga if you want :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: So how did we digress from databases to device drivers? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: As I see it, there is no excuse to write assembler code it you can write it in C. Boss: why aren T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: I think everybody agrees that they're WAY different levels in a system. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: a device will thrive when something that should happing during the leading edge happens during the leading edge, not when it happens during the trailing edge and they have to stuff the pipeline with waits just because someone thinks that waits are cool. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Boss: Why aren't you finished? because I write it in asm? Why, when you can do it in C? Because it's better! But we don't need better, we need it done. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: well, if you have that conversation with your boss often, you are in the wrong line of work. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Finally, something we agree upon. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and of course, if your boss can't do what you are doing to begin with, then maybe he's in the wrong line of work. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Fortunately for my boss, I am an engineer and not just a coder. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: I can only assume that you don't write assembly code for a living, if you did we wouldn't have this conversation. You would know in your bones. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: bones aren't actually correct rebuttals T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: Engineers don't know how to code, they just know that code can do what they want so they slap together lines until they get the desired support. Computer scientists do the same. They think that because they understand what an algorithm does it qualifies them to implement it. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: some of the most horrendous code I've witnessed comes from CompSci "programming" efforts. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: and pigheaded programmers similarly don't know how to code properly T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: So, basically everyone who isn't a asm coder is worthless? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: but they know how to tell others that they're not coding properly T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: and that they feel it in their bones T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: choosing the wrong tool for the job is still bad coding, regardless of how close it makes you feel to your processor T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: That may be true. It's unfortunate that you don't know what it means to write in assembly. I don't read programming manuals, I read hardware specifications, timing stimates, principles of operation, I mean, if I ever decided to become a hardware person, I would already be halfway there. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: when I write code I can see in my mind what the cpu is doing or the peripherals. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: no, you pretend to T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and it's all automatic, no effort involved. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: but that makes you feel better T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: oh, sorry. I have a model in my mind of what the cpu is doing, or theperipherals. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: and I see sounds and hear colors T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: and smell math problems T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, thanks for listening to me. I am going to take a break :) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Feathylynn Tech: Can anyone tell me how to set up Aardwolf on Mxit (mobile app)? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Turie Tech: Ask a MXiT player. T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Turie Tech: Nocturnus: Could you upgrade to 4.75? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nocturnus Tech: i could try that and see T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nocturnus Tech: this aard mushclient is just a little more laggy than the other one, if i could fix that i'd play this T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: nowadays I wouldn't recommend installing mushclient from gammon's site to play aard, including updates T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: yeah.. only use fiendish's packages T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: fiendish updates for gammon's releases extremely quickly, he'd been at 4.75 at least since june T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Celdyn Tech: So i am going to have to delete and reinstall? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: dont' delete.. backup... then delete T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Celdyn Tech: Web addy is? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: if you're asking for fiendish's web addy, finger fiendish (that's pretty much always going to be the answer for any player's web addy) T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: admittedly fiendish's is a little weird T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Celdyn Tech: Is that the best mushclient? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: it's the most popular T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nocturnus Tech: if i delete the group monitor plugin in aard mushclient that will get rid of this group monitor window right? T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: remove it from the plugins window T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: yes T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: ctrl - shift-p T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nocturnus Tech: thank ye T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: I'd suggest just typing "groupoff" T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: that'll leave the ability to turn it back on by typing "groupon" for those occasions that it comes in handy even for a solo leveller T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Celdyn Tech: I hate to lose my aliases but this lack of spacing is doing my head in! T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: you can save your aliases and triggers T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: you can import your aliases Celdyn T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: as a .mca and .mct file T3/r4/2011-07-15.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Celdyn Tech: Can i save them now?

Now how do i import my aliases?

T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: Here is another whopper: FIFO queues :) As if there were any other kind. Queues are FIFO and stacks are LIFO, so to say FIFO queue or LIFO stacks is being redundantly redundant. T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Enohet Tech: Either way, it does neither.

T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: the problem with terminology is that when the world migrated from main frames to micros, they grabbed the terminology without understanding the meaning. Most people who work on micro have never seen a mainframe. T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: so they misuse the established terminology.

T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: There was a time when a word was the width of the data bus, for instance.Now a word is stuck at 16 bits, because IBM chose the 8086 (or rather the 8088 which emulates the 8086). T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: A word is 32 or 64 bits on most platforms. T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: and the micro people thought that word meant 16 bits. The word on an 8086 is 16 bits because that's how wide the data bus is. T3/r4/2011-07-17.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: a word is the width of the data buse. A word on an 8088 is 8 bits. On an i7 is 64 bits.

T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: send me one more test? triggers are back on.

T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: (was trying to figure out how do do it, given that my own notes......you know, I'm just going to chalk this up to Monday and leave it at that. :P) T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: so....what should I look at if echo'ing the text to my screen works as expected, but mud output disappears?

T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I hate this type of problem. I learn nothing from it, so I can't prevent it from happening again. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: "toggling all triggers off for a while and then back on" is not a solution. :P T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: I just told you what the issue was. Aardwolf is just like every other MUD from a coding standpoint. Sometimes stuff (ie, color codes) is just not where you expect it to be so if you're looking for that in a particular spot your trigger won't match. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: did you compare lines in the Script Debugger? That's the best way to tell where the ansi codes are, if something isn't happening how you want it to T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: the trigger shouldn't have been looking at ANSI codes. but more to the point, I didn't change any code, other than to toggle off all triggers, and then toggle them all back on. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: misbehaving triggers aren't always the obvious ones. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: yeah. that's why I was hoping there might be some ideas along the lines of "oh, phantom stuff, try this." it was a shot in the dark. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I added one new trigger today, to try and copy note info to another window. but I disabled that a while ago, and still wasn't seeing anything show up, until a little bit ago. is it possible that disabling the trigger wasn't enough? T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: very much so. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: so, what is necessary to *really* disable a trigger? T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: the basic problem is that some other trigger than the ones you were working with fired on lines you didn't intend them to T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: since this trigger fired at the wrong time, there might be other things dependant on their firing (ie, conditions in a multiple-state trigger) that would then never fire because their lines aren't going to appear until you did something that brings those lines up T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: what about MXP stuff? the new trigger was attempting to generate active text. no multi-state stuff, but it had both #CAPTURE and #MXP in it. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: no #GAG, though. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: (or variant) T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Reaper Myrkul Tech: your mxp prefs in the child window could be blocking it... T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: text generated in that manner will allow other triggers to fire on the generated text, if Trigger on Trigger is enabled T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: however, you cannot change the text used by #CAPTURE, so if #CAPTURE was the culprit you would've likely ended up with an infinite loop T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: no infinite loop. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: the trigger on trigger thing....as a general rule, when should that be disabled? T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: when you want to print something to the screen that cannot be put there via #PRINT or other commands that bypass the parser. Mostly in cases where you aren't really changing the text of the line sent by the game. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: now that we have #PRINT, you almost never have to disable it--but #PRINT doesn't work with active mxp formatting (ie, clickable links) T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I was trying #MXP for that (wasn't trying to embed it, just wanted to see it....on it's own line would be fine) T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: it worked, offline.... T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: online, I noticed the info messages had disappeared completely. then, I disabled the trigger. but still no info. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: disable another trigger. Keep going until it comes back. T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: then, I disabled all the triggers, and re-enabled, and now the basic capture is back (minus the "new" behavior, which is still disabled) T3/r4/2011-07-18.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: well, at this point, I'm just waiting for "real" notes to be posted, since I can't generate info for my own notes. :) T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}HelperMan Hadar Tech: with cmud how can i change what i see in the right click menu? like if i want to right click an item in my inv and look at it id it or drop it, then click on the item i want T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: I'm still trying to figurue out mushclient coding T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: can anyone suggest a method of putting channels in separate windows? T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: capture channels using gmcp and build your own miniwindows> T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: If you're using MUSH, why re-invent the wheel? T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Or if you're talking about separate windows for different channels, take a look at the existing coding and see if you can figure it out. ;) T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: mushclient doesn't put them in seperate windows, it puts them all in one different window, I want a gossip window, a tech window, etc. T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: and I've been staring at existing code, which is a great example, but I can't figure it out :( T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Then follow my suggestion. ;) T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Ebullient Etzli chuckles politely. T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Zylias Tech: what would happen if you were to copy and paste the existing code, then change the window name part, then remove the channels you didn't want to see on each one? (just a thought without having checked the code) T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: I tried that T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Zylias Tech: what did it do? T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: obviously I did it wrong because nothing changed in either window. T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: my only success was making a duplicate window :) T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Zylias Tech: so what did you end up with? 2 windows showing all channels? T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: yes! T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Gotta look for the makewindow function, or something like that, I believe. T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Or that. :p T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Lag... *sigh* T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: I'm not that technical, but I'll look at it further when I'm more awake, thank you for the suggestions. T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Heh... I'm going to bed here shortly, so I'm probably just as braindead as you are. ;) T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Zylias Tech: hmm... well if you play with one copy of it at a time, at least if you screw up that one you might be able to just delete it and you'll be back at the start T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: I used to play anarchy online, and you could tab the channels, in one window, and the tabs would blink when they had activity. T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Zylias Tech: like after copy and paste leaving one as is and changing the other T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: and there were shortcuts to change active channels. T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Zylias Tech: zmud does that too - not sure about the shortcut part but it flashes or something the tab bit T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: mieko talk to anaristos T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: he has a setup something like what you're describing T3/r4/2011-07-19.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Mieko Tech: I'd be using zmud but I couldn't work out the mapping part, and mushclient maps are awesome.

T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I see
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: not sure. I've never tried that. I'm usually either on wifi or on wire, but never both
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Akuri Tech: the box is wired
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you want two wired links to the same network? what would be the point of that?
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: If it's a gige uplink and he has two 100m ports, he can work at 200m, can't he?
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: not likely
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Akuri Tech: cant you set one to send the other to recieve
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: i'm not sure I see the point of doing that
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: I'm asking honestly. This is a little over my head/out of my realm. Why is it unlikely?
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I haven't heard of any network hardware being half duplex in a very long time
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: doesn't ISDN do that?
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Not an Imm Erikson blinks innocently.
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: What does half duplex have to do with channel bonding?
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: Anyway, both ends would have to support it.  I'm not sure any switch you're likely to have at home does.
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: half duplex has to do with wanting one ware to be an uplink and one wire to be a downlink
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: wire
T3/r4/2011-07-28.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: as opposed to having both wires be both up and down
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Grae Tech: anyone up for troubleshooting a problem with cmud not starting?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Grae Tech: win xp pro, fresh install of cmud
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: anybody understand how perl keeps track of string lengths?  it's source code's a little beyond me now probably, i'm curious if it marks down how many characters are read into a buffer from the system calls etc and internal string manipulation counts as they occur, and keeps that record separate from the strings themselves
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: cause you can put in print "Hello wo\0\0rld!\n"; and you get a thing like you'd get with giving the string to write with the length
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: they don't use the nul character like c does to find that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i'm guessing it's something like that, actual data
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: afaik, strings in perl are objects, similarly to java, so they aren't null terminated like c array strings are (don't quote me on that, I hate perl and avoid it wherever possible)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: yeah, it is alot different than i'm used to, it's how it does things though.. it does allow you to include anything you want in a string
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: If you have a choice of languages, I'd go with lua or python, maybe ruby - if not, there are some decent perl boards out there, but if they tell you to use $_ kick them square in the balls
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: lol
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: i haven't used perl since college, forgot how to use it :)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i want to get familiar with it for alot of reasons, like understanding other information that uses perl to express it's study material's in
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: that's mainly the reason now, though it's probably handy for alot of things
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: alot (there's lots of information transmitted through perl)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it's tough sometime's getting going on learning about computer system's, cause the authors will use things like awk or an excessive amount of arcane usages of tools you don't see often to express their idea's, it's not quite as easy as just learning C and some basics then going on from there, lots of information is needed to process lots of the relevant information that lets you do things with computers
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: well, it is that easy, but there seems to be a damn near topless ladder 
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: i completely agree
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: good to have some information to reference though, the internet's handy for hobbies
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: its jsut as useful imo as any other scripting language
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: somebody once showed me this line of perl code that looks like it did absolutely nothing special, and it results in the command rm -rF ~/ or something like that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: or a chat room
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it didn't resemble those characters at all
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: the $_ means current input line or something iirc, there's alot of those little cryptic devices in there
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: $_ is context dependent. Its meaning depends on a small handful of things. :P
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: @_@
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Not defending it. I like perl, but $_ still makes me nervous. I see its value, but keeping track of "what does it mean here" is... I'm okay with making explicit temps.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: $_ is the default variable.  Perl functions use it whenever you don't specify a target variable for i/o
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: yeah it is something else to get used to
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: there you go :)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: There is never a good reason to use $_   According to the creator of perl, it is there for quick hacks, and he wishes he never implemented it
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: something else to get used to is right, i read through this book a little bit and they have mention of a fake WU-FTPD Exploit .. where the author had remapped the puts function to the system call instead, and had lines puts("echo ~ ok, it seems to have worked... remember: \"); puts("rm -rf is not elite ~");
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it is important to keep track of what's happening in program's
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so the person trying to run his code and see if wu-ftpd crashed or not would end up removing this home directory
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Restricting os access is the golden rule of testing anything you didn't write...
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: SELinux is something i have yet to explore and learning more of PAM 
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but i think that's where the majority of that happens on these machine's, possibly grsecurity is good too
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and chroot jails and things like that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: iptable's up till around kernel 2.6.13 had the ability via a owner module to block a specific application string from accessing the internet, but that along with pid blocking of processes from the internet was removed in later kernels
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i guess they have their reasons, i tried looking for a way to individually block system calls from certain applications, such as connect or bind
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and i hear the only way that's possible with existing things is through the use of SELinux or similar
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: there's a BSD program called systrace which seems to do similar
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: possibly could even make some money making a user friendly front end for profiling program's like that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: maybe you'd have to make an illusion connection on the kernel's behalf for applications which crash if that connect fails
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: security based on names or pids of programs nver works, too easy to bypass
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i considered that a little, they could just make a symbolic link and that would be their command line or the like, i'm not sure if symlinks show up or not in the argv[0] though
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: been awhile and i'd have to check
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i guess you'd have to make a profile for user directories and remove execute access from /tmp
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: let them have their non-connecting binaries that they want
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: maybe only binaries from a certain directory set or libraries running on their behalf could make internet connections if they're not profiled against that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: still easy to work around
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: if you want to restrict a specific application, run it in a VM and restrict the entire VM
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i'm sure there's way's, but there must be some way that it could work the way it's intended to
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: vm's going into some kind of quantum computing :p, i'm sure that's one way it could be ultimately done but i'd rather have more control over the host operating system and its apps first
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i guess you'd maybe have to monitor the usage of the dynamic linker for one, like they used to use it to execute /tmp files when /tmp was noexec
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: if that's one way it could be bypassed or not in your reasoning
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: there's no way to create hard links to files on other partitions that i know of, directories also shouldn't be hard links but can be bypassed - symbolic links you can make from anywhere, and the dynamic linker can't disturb anything which it probably doesn't
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: what other ways are there to modify it?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: maybe the kernel blocks the program by name and then inserts its pid and that of all its children
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: since you have to ? start a program by name
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and that program can only come from that directory, which nobody else can make a differently named hard link to if they have no permissions
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and users directories are restricted from using internet connecting system calls from their user executable's
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: still, it's more secure to use authentication, and that's easier to implement
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but what to do once you've been breached?  i don't imagine most people know every details of every application (or their authors) that they use.. so they could be doing all kinds of strange things, or parsing strange content in unexpected ways
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: on unix-like machine's that gives the content possibly the ability to become that user
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: there are security software that keeps md5sums of all files, so it's easy to track what has changed
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: but typically, if you have been attacked, you flush the system and restart from scratch
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i'm thinking how to prevent changes, even those databases can be corrupted
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: before they occur, that's why i think of that old iptables functionality and selinux (which is difficult)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: every security measure can be circumvented, if it's incorrectly implemented
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: the kind of functionality / tweakability i want is similar to how i said it, with some idea's thrown in to prevenat against sidetracking the purpose
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i know what you're saying
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: restricting network access is always done with authentication, because that's the only thing that is reliable enough
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i don't want to have to restart from scratch though, a stealthy thief you may not ever see tehre even, you'd be flushing every time you did anything
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Then you don't see what he's saying. If the guy good enough to cover his tracks in Ranrr's system attacks YOU, he can cover his tracks there, too.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: authentication would be like a fallback or priori to my idea though
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: maybe both
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: If the box is hit, you consider the whole thing compromised and start over, or you take the risk of some infection/leftbehind you didn't catch.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and my idea's maybe already implemented through SELinux with a bunch of effort, partly with iptable's which functionality is now gone
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: once an attacker has access to a box, that box should be considered infected and must be flushed
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: unless you have an offline db with checksums and can verify that nothing has been compromised
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i think it's possible to lock down most thing's that could be compromised from compromising a system or user account who used it with the proper tweaks
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: then you can rest more assured your md5 sums and stuff aren't also compromised
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: you would be wrong thinking that, though :) All systems can easily be broken if you have access to them.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and authentication isn't your only line of defense
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: if you have access to them
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: that's mostly true, there are possibly some cryptographic techniques out there which would render a drive useless without a solution for
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but that's not really what a end user would require unless they're doing something very wrong
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: or are just curious/paranoid
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: you should read the US military books on computer systems security, I think it is called the orange book, but I may be wrong
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i read a book once i got from ebay on a cd which ahd some rainbow books on it, maybe that's one of them
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: not really read it but looked at some of what it's about - they were talking about overwriting a area of a hard disk and then again and again and being able to go back to see what each overwrite contained
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Well, military grade secure OSs is all about building layers upen layers where each layer controls access for the next one. Makes the OS harder to use, of course, but layers is the only way to make something secure.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: really
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: A VM could be considered a layer, that's why controlling acces for it works. A firewall is a layer, etc.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i was thinking of how to build one of those the other day, abelinc was saying os's might use the 1 and 2 modes of intel cpu's
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: modern nixlike system's apparently only use mode 0 and 3
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i mean vm's*
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: not build but how those other two mode's could be used with some hardware to make things more secure and efficient
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: into existing software, i discussed it with some people who didn't seem to think it's such a bad idea once my reasoning was clear - i'd have to do alot of research before i could try it out though
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i imagine the military grade computer's have alot more mode's than 4 though, or their layered operating systems
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: so i have an alias in cmud and it has ()s in it to reference aard eq by serial number, but when it send it to the mud the ()s disppear. how do i escape the ()s?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tharnin Tech: Use object ids? :)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: multi-core cpu's with their own lookup table's and a kernel mode core was one idea i had, the kernel core using interprocessor communication to accept the system calls (other cores or another core could implement modes 1 and 2, which would pass on the request from the layer 4 processes downwards or denial towards the kernel)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: somebody hinted that each core does possibly have its own lookup table and things like that, i imagine some system's out there now might do something like i'm thinking of but i never seen it
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: lookup tables, address x (virtual) is actually address y  updated by the kernel's pager
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so multiple processes running on multiple core's and a core waiting around for the hardware to update their table's and switch their processes
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: is your main objective in life to spam tech?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: he's talking about multilayered operating system's and that's what i'm talking about
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: how do you implement it?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: my idea make's things like blocking system calls alot easier and faster since the core isn't going into kernel mode to service its own request, if the hardware's present
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but it's possibly already done like that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: anybody know why this program would hang?  http://pastebin.com/QxWpVUdS
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: besides bein gugly
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: because it's written in assembler
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Ranrr smiles happily.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: the heap starts at a variable random address within a certain range, or the heap unmapped until first allocation
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but here i try to map in one byte below the starting brk, and it hangs instead of terminating like happens when i do more than 1 byte on another attempt
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: at least i think that's what's happening
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i prevented a segfault at least, a new type of exception handling
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: why are you writing in assembler?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: cause they didn't tell me how to access the _start symbol and stuff from within a c program when i asked them nicely
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: So?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: also, the brk wrapper function for C behaves different from the actualy system call
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: Then don't use the wrapper functions....
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: BTW, who are "them" ?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i figured it out
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: the manual page seems to indicate it can map backwards to reduce the break as well as forward, i guess the kernel must keep track of where it began at per process and consider that backwards undoable
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Hrm.  I haven't been checking, but how much RAM does mushclient usually use?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: bc right now mine's sitting on 400k...

T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: Mine's been open for 90 minutes or so, and it's at about 14,500K Mem usauge and 37,000K VM size
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: peak memory usage is 43,000K
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: 5 days online, prob more like a fortnight open, perhaps I should restart it :-)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Leinei Tech: That's with 4 different worlds open
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ranrr Tech: 400m sounds like there is a memory leak
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Yeah, restarted and now 47m - definitely a leak in there somewhere
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Thought it could have been mapper db and statdb, but they're both loaded in the 47
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fuzzy Madcatz Tech: Wow...even captchas have advertisements now.

T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: anyone have any idea how to get CnC4 to work past the EA's stupid "always online" thing? I can't even get past the starting cinematic before getting a internet connection error
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fuzzy Madcatz Tech: had to click on it, watch a 10 second video, and then enter "Get DISH with Google TV" as the answer to the captcha
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: the solution (unfortunately) is to boycott games that do that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kurojiryuu Tech: winkle, I bought it before I realised it had that shit on it. Bloody EA.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: ubisoft are just as bad
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fuzzy Madcatz Tech: Ubisoft has gotten better
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: they are bringing it back for their latest game
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fuzzy Madcatz Tech: They released patches for at least 2 of their games that changed it to just requiring connection on startup
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fuzzy Madcatz Tech: Capcom requires it for games that don't even have an online component whatsoever
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Averan Tech: screw always online anti-piracy, I refuse to buy any game that has it
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: next driver will have the you-have-to-be-online-or-the-game-quits drm
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: (ubisoft)
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fuzzy Madcatz Tech: Nods, that what Assassin Creed Brotherhood (I think that was the one) started out as before they released a patch a couple of months later
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Fuzzy Madcatz Tech: I haven't kept up with it lately, so perhaps they're not getting better
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: they got better for a while, but now they're going back to the draconian measures

T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Why do I have the feeling that the MUD has stopped sending GMCP data about my location?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Cizra Tech: Either that or the mapper plugin is broken. Lemme try a restart...

T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nefaro Tech: something like that yeah
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: or an auto-healing plugin?

T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}DeusMorituro Tech: lol No advice on my previous question? Hope I'm not a bother :P
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Your name is a bother. :(
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Ebullient Etzli runs away in utter terror!
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tlaloc Tech: I have an iphone, sorry
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: It should be easy to set up, honestly.  Just make sure you put the host and port correctly.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Caede Tech: does anyone here use Mudlet? My status area is not showing anything
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: any aard clients for the mac?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: ok, thanks for the help.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Nebmaatre Tech: you can run mushclient through wine.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: gotcha, thanks
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: in this book i have teaching me about memory manager's here, the author adds 1 to the address returned by brk(0) to call it heap_begin and current_break at the initialization.. i notice that that value itself is random in my program's and the address is inaccessible until i extend brk by a little bit
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: is it on 32 bit that the brk was always valid at program startup, right at the last address of bss?
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: cause it sure doesn't make much sense on 64 bit, wasting an entire byte like that
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it's not meant to be complete or anything, so i guess i could be right - i'll run some tests and see.
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so i get a different address for each program invocation for brk(0), and the same address for information in the .bss section - the address returned is inaccessible at program start, so brk isn't returning the last valiad address - unlike this 32 bit tutorial where they seem to expect it to directly follow .bss and the address returned to be valid at the start
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it's a little confusing, but not impossible
T3/r4/2011-07-29.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: tech after i call brk with an address, brk(0) returns the new address, and the byte returned is useable - only after brk.. so it is invalid at program start until space is reserved
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: might be alot of mind game's to add in the wilderness preservation, binning and other things like that
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: 64 bit requires a 32 bit offset for some type's of data/alignment, would that be my minimum allocated size?  16 could be a toggle
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: wait, 8 16 byte
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: something like that
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: C standard
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Undertaken Anaristos Tech: on the other hand, 64-bit alignment always work...
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Caede Tech: does anyone use Mudlet?

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Seltsimees Dagnir Tech: probably. any telnet client will do
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Electrobite perks up, something must have grabbed his attention.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Slow Poke Krypteria Tech: i just tried that midpssh and it connects with aardmud.net...then im stuck
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Electrobite Tech: how do i make my fonts bigger in midpssh client?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vakieh Tech: Game->Configure->Output

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Electrobite Tech: ok thanks
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Limunious Tech: so how is the android mud client working for aard? is it going well?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I don't see why not
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Just had a minor problem using the mapper...running to an area via the aard amulet ran me straight into a big nasty aggro mob, anything I can do to avoid that? Might it be a good plan to put an artificial level limit in when I configure the amulet, to stop it using it until a specific level?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: you can specify levels on portals, but that's not the best solution for this problem
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: see mapper help
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Well, it would work around it temporarily I guess, stop me running into trouble at lower levels at least...what is this better solution?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: can the mob be run around?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: ie a safer route?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: It ran me through christmas vacation to get to storm mountain
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: hrm.. it doesn't do that for me.. i wonder what route i'm using? I was goign to say if you need it to take a slightly different route you can make a cexit that slightly avoids the mob.. just make it one room close to your destination and mapper will see your cexit as a mroe efficient route.. but that won't help for this..
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: the better solution is something I haven't implemented
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: It used the aard amulet, then ran n8es9esn2ue, I died part way through that.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: but in the meantime, you can already specify levels on portals
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: and you can try what winklewinkle has suggested
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: I see...probably safest to just remove the aard amulet portal entry or put a level limit on it for now. Thanks :)
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: what room number were you running to?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Room 6313, Near the Fox's Den
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Califan Tech: or you could use the crusader area exit
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: that's why i'm not goign by that route!
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: well done califan... lytebane.. walk all the open clan exits
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: you rmapper doesn't know about it
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: most likely
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: sw2nun from recall
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Ah, didn't realise I could do that, never used them. I noticed it used bards ones sometimes, but not seen it use others. Thanks :)
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: it uses what it knows
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: fiendish is it enough to to go the exit room and it then knows where the exits go... or does he need to walk them?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: Must have been to bards ones once in the past without realising it then. I'll have to have a wander around some clan areas, make my speedwalking quicker
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ol' Dirty Fiendish Tech: I dunno :)
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Lytebane Tech: I'll have a play with it later...gotta go offline, I was supposed to be out the house 15 minutes ago :) Late as usual. Thanks again for the help.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Electrobite Tech: im kinda new to these clients

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: they are meant to be like hotkeys
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: i don't know anyone who uses them
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: we talking mush here?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Electrobite Tech: midpssh
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}WinkleWinkle Tech: then ignore everything i just said
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Electrobite Tech: is there mccp for midpssh?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Sneak Tech: Google is your friend.

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}#/bin/bash Isildur Tech: anyone know if there is a option that if i type a piece of command in prompt and type up, it will complete with the first command that matches it in command history?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}#/bin/bash Isildur Tech: in mushclient
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}#/bin/bash Isildur Tech: liek zmud does
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: I thought pushing 'up' would accomplish that.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: But apparently not anymore.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}#/bin/bash Isildur Tech: pushin up returns the last command entered, but not the one starting with the pattern i entered
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}#/bin/bash Isildur Tech: for example... i made the following commands in order: backstab X, cast immolate, cast heal, cast immolate... then i want to return to backstab typing backs or back or even ba and type up... got it?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}#/bin/bash Isildur Tech: ok, think i got the option :)
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Electrobite Tech: what is the other client for blackberry except midpssh?

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}L33tM4st3r Kathan Tech: any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :)
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Reaper Myrkul Tech: you can't modify your pattern so it only captures the bit you want? would need more details to help, really...
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}L33tM4st3r Kathan Tech: Is there anyway to use a variable within a variable name? So I have @varname(@varnamecount) and edit variables @varname1 @varname2 etc... ?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Oladon Tech: You don't want to do that.

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Reaper Myrkul Tech: @{@variable}
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Reaper Myrkul Tech: to use the contents of @variable as a variable reference, if that's what you're asking
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Oladon Tech: Don't do that...
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}L33tM4st3r Kathan Tech: why not?

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Oladon Tech: Use a hash or something
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}L33tM4st3r Kathan Tech: I'm pretty basic when it comes to scripting in Zmud. I have no idea what you mean by use a hash.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: Not sure what you're asking about, Kathan.  If you're trying to reference the variable's variable, then do it like Myrkul said.  Alternatively, you could set up a database variable, then do %db(@databasevar, @variable), which would probably be better.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}L33tM4st3r Kathan Tech: I think I have the syntax figured out now ty for the help.
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Ebullient Etzli Tech: (Example being: databasevar = {heal=jade|mana=tea|refresh=rejuve}... then you can do something like quaff %db(@databasevar, @potion), set potion to heal, mana, or refresh, and you'll quaff jade, tea, or rejuve respectively.)

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it's maddening, like how do you mentally calculate 0x1cf8052 - 0x1cf8009 to see if there is 64+9 byte's?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: calculator should take those as input and translate them to its understanding and then spit out decimal when i want
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: it can
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Randor Tech: and the calculator doesn't?
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: just switch it to hex mode

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Randor Tech: working in hexadecimal isn't that difficult, it's still a polyadic system, it could get so much worse

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i know it's not too hard, but learning hexadecimal is next chapter
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Randor Tech: 0x is a prefix to make typical compilers understand it, and used in literature, calculators don't get that

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: if the calculator would just do what it should do then i wouldn't have to think about it
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Randor Tech: why bother learning the principles when the damn calculator should just know, who does he think he is
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: but calculators should understand f shouldn't they?

T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: so i double double check that i triple checked that it is in hexadecimal input mode
T3/r4/2011-07-30.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and i type in the sacred formula, 238102B-2381012 and it doesn't understand what a B is

T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: definitely requires alot of planning and patience
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: this guy used bin's for his malloc, which sorted the chunks, up to 512 bytes or so separated by 8, then by some algorithm i'm guessing
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: tech lots of things
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i could see how it could be configured for different settings
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: give out the last chunk only if no other's can fit the request, 'wilderness preservation' to prevent system calls, which i didn't understand well
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: if the tailing end of the heap reaches above 1 M reduce it

T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: it takes alot of time to build
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i didn't understand why preserving the last chunk prevents anything except by i guess the leftover's being used in a smaller bin, since it's not preserved.. ah there is the answer
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: sort of, i'd have to break it down
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and to hack those you need alot of tools and teaching

T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}ShenDragon Tech: Close enough lol... I'm trying to set up an auto recast trigger, but I can't get it to quote the variable. "You lost your concentration while trying to cast word of recall" triggers "cast word of recall" instead of "cast 'word of recall'"
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: don't trigger on that...trigger on {sfail} spelltag
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: that gives the spellnumber, so you don't need to use quotes

T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Vannel Tech: if you want to use the quotes, then it depends what you set as your escape character in ur zmud settings.
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: you can try to use %quote(), but I seem to recall that ZMud didn't do so well with quotes.
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: as in ~" would end up evaluating to " and the same issue would occur.
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}ShenDragon Tech: yeah, I had tried ' and it evaluates the quote out of the output
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: you can likely use ~' for those cases
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}ShenDragon Tech: ...it just evaluated the tilde out of that lol
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: but spelltags exist expressly to make scripting this stuff painless
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dokkar Tech: beyond that, just store the actual name of the spell in the variable and use "cast '" or %format()

T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: for the position independent code, does anybody know if you can?
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i couldn't quite figure out how to tell gcc to generate a static function code/call
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: maybe there isn't one, but using static variable's works to find the other type
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: maybe function(%rip) would work
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: and i can't see why buffer's are declared in teh data section instead of the bss, using .comm is accessible through the GOT, using .local symbol then .comm is accessible directly through %rip
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: anybody know about why?
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: .lcomm seems to be local common, .comm is just common with a separate .local directive
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: i think i got it, .comm can specify an alignment .local can make the symbol unvisible externally, .lcomm can't specify an alignment on most targets
T3/r4/2011-07-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}The Imp Druzil Tech: they don't mention .comm being used in the .bss explicitly, but .lcomm they do
