<SilverFox> just in programming in general
<whitequark> historical reasons
<SilverFox> whitequark, what would be a good medium for long-term storage for my computer? floppy?
<whitequark> some of the new x86 instructions are huge
<whitequark> "VZEROUPPER" is a thing
<SilverFox> lol what that do
<whitequark> PCLMULLQLQDQ is also a thing
<egg> oh there's a different addressing scheme for labels
<whitequark> SilverFox: floppies are not a good long term storage medium
<whitequark> i'm not really sure if we have any good long term storage medium at all
<egg> addresses 0 .. 9 are labels 0 .. 9, 10 .. 14 are labels A .. E, 15 .. 19 are labels a .. e
<whitequark> other than shit like "engrave it with a SEM on a metal plate"
<whitequark> well with a FIB
<egg> (there's a GTO and GSUB (I) that uses that addressing scheme)
<SilverFox> well, whats the best medium for me to use given the capabilities
<egg> and then there's the weirdest use of (I), which is DSP (I)
<SilverFox> bunch of flash chips with a watch battery?
<whitequark> whats the battery for
<egg> DSP (I) sets the number of significant digits being displayed to I
<SilverFox> oh right, there's non-volatile flash chips
<whitequark> all flash chips are non-volatile.
<whitequark> if you want a parallel flash, use NOR
<SilverFox> okay
<whitequark> if you can do with a serial flash (so you need SPI), use FeRAM
<whitequark> parallel NOR flash is super easy to use, it's like SRAM but without the writes
<whitequark> well, the writes require a special sequence, that is
<SilverFox> I dont like serial
<whitequark> FeRAM is just your normal ass SPI flash, except it's *way* faster and probably one of the most reliable current media
<whitequark> TI has tried to test FeRAM destructively, i.e. until it rubs through
<whitequark> last time i looked they were running it for years in parallel, still waiting for a single bad bit
<whitequark> theory says it will happen at some point, but the MTBF is longer than how long we've had it for
<whitequark> you can definitely break both NOR (100k cycles) and NAND (10k cycles) easily just by leaving it for a few days
<SilverFox> for a few days?
<SilverFox> damn
<SilverFox> I also dont want to manage TRIM
<whitequark> well, the write time is on the order of milliseconds per cell
<whitequark> so a day is like on the order of a million cycles
<SilverFox> flash storage seems poopy then
<whitequark> i'm simplifying it greatly
<whitequark> there's also erase time
<whitequark> well
<whitequark> NOR is good for a boot ROM or such
<whitequark> erasing NOR is incredibly slow
<whitequark> on the order of hundreds of ms
<whitequark> but it doesn't have bad blocks and doesn't need an FTL (what you call TRIM)
<whitequark> NAND is fast but you have to actively manage it or it'll die
<SilverFox> how hard is SATA?
<whitequark> forget about doing DIY SATA
<whitequark> i mean
<whitequark> it's not that you can't do it
<SilverFox> I just wanna be like "Here's the address, here's the data"
<whitequark> it's more that the SATA interface alone will be a few orders of magnitude more complex than the entire rest of your project
<whitequark> which sorta defeats the purpose imo
<SilverFox> yeah true
<whitequark> using old IDE drives is more realistic
<whitequark> esp in PIO mode
<whitequark> of course those are kind of a limited supply at this point
<SilverFox> cant I use some jank combination of IDE adapters?
<whitequark> to SATA?
<SilverFox> to something idk
<whitequark> that's plausible but honestly those things are shit and idk how you'll debug it if it breaks
<whitequark> they barely work with PCs
<whitequark> they basically test them by plugging into a windows machine once. i'm exaggerating but.
<SilverFox> there's really no winning here is there
<whitequark> you really should just use serial flash
<whitequark> serial flash, serial PSRAM, serial Ethernet adapter, all fit fairly welll
<SilverFox> yeah but then I need parallel-serial adapters for all of them
<whitequark> you need one
<whitequark> and it's two 74xx shift registers
<whitequark> and a counter
<SilverFox> would giving my ethernet module DMA be a bad thing?
<whitequark> you can't use DMA for ENC28J60 directly
<whitequark> since it can't bus master. since... well... it's an SPI device
<SilverFox> what I'm thinking is, a section of memory dedicated to outgoing, and incoming data packets, hardware interrupt on updating these memory addresses, and the ethernet module gets told when there is outgoing data updated, and then it has the ability, when it gets incoming data, to just straight right it to the incoming portion of system allocated ram
<whitequark> enc28j60 can't read your ram
<SilverFox> reee
<whitequark> you'll need to make a wrapper around it of some sort that can do that, if you want dma
<SilverFox> there's already going to be a wrapper
<whitequark> if you want your SPI devices to be memory-mapped or do DMA you'll need to wrap them in that yeah
<whitequark> it's doable with more 74xx jank
<SilverFox> the wrapper is required because parallel to serial, and other things
<SilverFox> im not just going to integrate the ethernet module into the entire system, that's just silly
<whitequark> you can use one SPI master for all of your SPI devices
<whitequark> since you can use the CS# pin to distinguish between them
<whitequark> but each device with DMA needs a dedicated one anyway
<whitequark> i guess not strictly "needs" but it's more practical

<SilverFox> the entire design philosophy of my bot, whose main code is several thousand lines, is "that'd be a neat feature to have" and it just gets added
<SilverFox> if it takes deliberate thought or time to parse out, it doesn't get done
<whitequark> isn't this just most irc bots
<egg|cell|egg> I used to have a bot that passed stuff to Mathematica
<egg|cell|egg> And flooded the channel with the answer
<SnoopJeDi> SilverFox, that's how galois's extra functionality is, but Sopel is a nice base
<SnoopJeDi> whitequark, tbf, it's also pretty much how the spec works
<SilverFox> snoopdawhoop what your bot do?

UmbralRaptop has joined #kspacademia
<whitequark> it's a gnu units clone with some useful features
<whitequark> it's not actiely developed sadly (the main dev has a job that takes all her time i think) but one day it might become the open-source w:a
<whitequark> it's honestly already doing 80% of the things i might want w:a for
<whitequark> which is admittedly limited
<SnoopJeDi> I bet it wouldn't be too hard to rig galois up with a DSL for talking to Pint
<whitequark> Pint?
<SnoopJeDi> There might be another nice units library for Python, can't recall
<SnoopJeDi> I think astropy has really nice units under the hood, but they're baked into the lib
<SnoopJeDi> SilverFox, half the stuff I write for galois is solely to have an excuse to play with things ^
<SilverFox> I don't play with things at all
<SnoopJeDi> The bot it was forked off of has a crummy shitposting Markov model, for example
<SilverFox> most of my functions that rely on information storage use text files
<SnoopJeDi> Because Markov processes are neat and I hadn't used markovify before
<SilverFox> does your bot have a tell system?
<SnoopJeDi> yes
<SilverFox> does it have a notification system for when people come online?
<SnoopJeDi> No
<SilverFox> oof
<whitequark> SnoopJeDi: rink is much more than just units though
<whitequark> it has a database of things like densities

* galois gives egg a gradient-descent experiment
<egg> whitequark: oh wow the мк61 is furiously similar to the HP-67
<egg> whitequark: cursed idea: a language & compiler targeting both calculators
<whitequark> why
<egg> whitequark: it's just that the similarity of some instructions struck me
<egg> whitequark: also I've kinda done that with that HP-67/HP-97 simulator, because they are actually equivalent aside from one having a printer
<whitequark> ah
<egg> and syntactic differences, [GSB] [f] [a] vs. [g] [GSB f] [a]
<egg> HP-97 has more keys, so only one modifier
<egg> f lowercases A to a, so GSB a is GSB f a on the 97, but GSB is not a key on the 67, it's f GTO; GSB f becomes g GTO
<egg> (hence that grammar)
<egg> whitequark: oh the display actually says ЕГГОГ, the -67 said Error (or Еггог maybe) with lowercase
<egg> also Crd if it wanted a magnetic card
<egg> > From exponents above 200 the display can show a ЗГГОГ
<egg> whitequark: oh you can indirectly address via any register? nice
<egg> whitequark: it's interesting that it displays the opcodes directly (with the digits 0123456789-LСГЕ ); the HP-67 and -97 would display (numerically) the keystrokes that led to the relevant instruction
<egg> so the same instruction on the same card would be displayed 31 25 11 on the HP-67 and 21 11 on the HP-97
<whitequark> interesting
<egg> whitequark: here's a listing (in HP-67 syntax) for a game of mastermind (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mastermind_(board_game)) that my father had implemented https://i.imgur.com/gGkOJHe.png
<galois> KeyError: 'extract' (file "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sopel/modules/wikipedia.py", line 87, in mw_snippet)
<egg> whitequark: it fits on 112 instructions (terminated by a Run/Stop on 113, which is the default value of program memory), so that it could be stored on one side of the card, with the other side holding the saved game
<whitequark> huh
<whitequark> never heard of this game, reading
<whitequark> oh
<whitequark> wait
<whitequark> iv'e played it.

<egg> whitequark: if you use both sides of a card you have 224 instructions (executed cyclically if you fallthrough from 224), but on 113 it's a bit tight so there's a bit of weirdness in that program
<egg> fallthroughs everywhere
<egg> whitequark: there's a sort of principle that "public" subprograms are at labels A .. E, a .. e, and the numeric labels are for "private" utilities, in that the alphabetic labels can be executed by pressing the relevant keys, which are just below the card (on which you would write a description of their function)
<egg> whereas you can only run the numeric labels with [GSB] <digit>
<egg> [f] [GTO] <digit> really
* egg stares at label E
<egg> so uh, instructions 080 .. 088 are C := frac(2^(frac(C * e^8))) for some reason?
<egg> oh that must be the generation of a new game
<egg> whitequark: I have questions
<egg> whitequark: does that show up correctly for you https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/kspacademia/2019-10-03#2466989;
<whitequark> uhhh
<whitequark> does not
<egg> whitequark: okay
<whitequark> it worked before, right
<egg> whitequark: I think galois cut mid-codepoint
<egg> yeah it works in general
<whitequark> oh.
<whitequark> right.
<whitequark> yeah galois message has a replacement character at the end for me
<egg> yeah same
<whitequark> i think ruby might be barfing on that
<whitequark> at least it didn't crash the bot lol
<egg> so it seems something in _whitelogger then says "must be latin-1 then"
<egg> CP1252 rather
<egg> (why always assume CP1252, when it could assume CP1251 or КОИ 8 instead)
<egg> Быки и коровы
<whitequark> egg: i think it is US-ASCII
<whitequark> nt latin-1
<whitequark> and it might be default ruby behavior
<whitequark> could also be postgres, but i think ruby
<egg> whitequark: I'm confused, Быки и коровы are not ASCII characters
<egg> that's UTF-8 misinterpreted as CP1252
<whitequark> US-ASCII might not mean what it looks like it means in ruby
<whitequark> i'd have to check
