| techrights-sec | gm | Nov 15 04:16 |
| techrights-sec | nothing missed afaik | Nov 15 04:16 |
| schestowitz-pi | that's good news | Nov 15 04:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | we generally get good news lately | Nov 15 04:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | whereas i hear about others struggling a lot | Nov 15 04:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | irc has been under control and on topic after MinceR added a rule | Nov 15 04:18 |
| techrights-sec | excellent. the munchkins are still around though I presume | Nov 15 04:18 |
| techrights-sec | just muffled for a bit | Nov 15 04:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | let them scratch their heads | Nov 15 04:19 |
| techrights-sec | at least the role of social control media in human trafficking is | Nov 15 04:20 |
| techrights-sec | finally being acknowledged: https://svenska.yle.fi/a/7-10045485 | Nov 15 04:20 |
| techrights-sec | though recruitment there started well before 2015, they need to | Nov 15 04:20 |
| techrights-sec | come clean on that and stop pretending that it is a new problem | Nov 15 04:20 |
| techrights-sec | "paperslösa" == illegals | Nov 15 04:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | looking for url from yesterday, yle: | Nov 15 04:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | https://yle.fi/a/74-20059947 | Nov 15 04:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | "Tampere, Helsinki and Vantaa have seen the most significant increases in crime over the past 10 years, according to the index. | Nov 15 04:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | " | Nov 15 04:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | in the uk this correlates with concentrations of ethnic groups | Nov 15 04:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | sometimes crimes within their community | Nov 15 04:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | you can take a person out of a tent and put the person in another type of arch | Nov 15 04:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | but the brain barely chanages | Nov 15 04:25 |
| techrights-sec | Yes, and no news sites have AFAIK investigated how the venezuelans' and | Nov 15 04:27 |
| techrights-sec | others' arrivals have been coordinated and aimed | Nov 15 04:27 |
| techrights-sec | The crimes start, briefly, within the ethnic enclaves against each other | Nov 15 04:27 |
| techrights-sec | at first but then when the second gen is tall enough to carry knives or | Nov 15 04:27 |
| techrights-sec | guns, the trouble really starts as it has in Helsinki, Turku, and Tampere | Nov 15 04:27 |
| techrights-sec | It might be the brain but the culture does persist and I'm almost suspecting | Nov 15 04:27 |
| techrights-sec | that some characteristics are hardwired and passed down genetically or epigenetically | Nov 15 04:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | all humans evolve to their surroundings | Nov 15 04:29 |
| schestowitz-pi | so the hereditary "skills" adapt to culture | Nov 15 04:29 |
| schestowitz-pi | in cold places, low "fertility" (choice!) means fewer mouths to feed when harvest is low and crops fail | Nov 15 04:29 |
| techrights-sec | Thus an emphasis on quality over quantity. Even in the viking days when | Nov 15 04:31 |
| techrights-sec | slaves where bought, they bought ones with the highest possible skills | Nov 15 04:31 |
| techrights-sec | and not muscled drones | Nov 15 04:31 |
| techrights-sec | Certain predispositions can be played on, nowadays via social control media. | Nov 15 04:31 |
| techrights-sec | I'm wondering about succeptibility to disinformation and propaganda. | Nov 15 04:31 |
| techrights-sec | Too many seem to think that 1) they are as an individual somehow immune to | Nov 15 04:31 |
| techrights-sec | propaganda, and that 2) propaganda consist of blatand lies | Nov 15 04:31 |
| techrights-sec | Along those lines, Gaza has been getting the treatment and there are | Nov 15 04:35 |
| techrights-sec | people online actively supporting Hamas. | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/24/gaza-election-hamas-2006-palestine-israel/ | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | Hamas /is/ the elected policy there. So the adult population is | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | for the most part consisting of either terrorists, sympathizers, | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | supporters. The kids will become one of those three groups as | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | they age. Even without all that, the population is a problem and | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | has been observed to have more than doubled there in the last 20 | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | years. Almost all the articles, including the one above, only | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | look at the snapshot in time of how many people are there just now | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | and not at the growth curve or the timebomb present in the demographic | Nov 15 04:36 |
| techrights-sec | pyramid chart | Nov 15 04:36 |
| schestowitz-pi | researching smething... | Nov 15 04:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_growth#/media/File:Countriesbyfertilityrate.svg | Nov 15 04:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | "fertility" seems to correlate with stupidity | Nov 15 04:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | as if being dumb gives you massive testes or somthing | Nov 15 04:38 |
| techrights-sec | Or foolishness | Nov 15 04:39 |
| schestowitz-pi | how many still think gender choice is a matter of sex positiob? | Nov 15 04:39 |
| schestowitz-pi | france is green | Nov 15 04:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | i wonder if immigration did this | Nov 15 04:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | anyway, i cannot think of how to relate this to tech | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | except the infant mortality or war factor | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | "spares" | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | or how closely this map resembles inbreeding/incest | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | but from a tech perspective correlations do exist | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | ii'll leave that aside for now | Nov 15 04:46 |
| techrights-sec | Tech is social control media driving human trafficking, | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | need [topic | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | brb tea | Nov 15 04:46 |
| schestowitz-pi | that is only related to the "human factory" in the sense that too many spares breed misery, not limited to famine or food insecurity | Nov 15 04:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | so people do suicidal thing, roll the dice | Nov 15 04:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | russia uses some as human burden fodder | Nov 15 04:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | russia is many borders away from orange and red countries | Nov 15 04:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | and russians are renowned for naked racism | Nov 15 04:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | i tidied up some notes for the series to come | Nov 15 04:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | mostly waiting for Daily Links | Nov 15 04:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | better done in one huge lump once a day | Nov 15 04:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | as the supply of stories worth a f* is anything but persistent | Nov 15 04:50 |
| techrights-sec | There are very few. Just did the first round of triage. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | About the only common theme over the recent months has been | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | that of Windows TCO going unacknowledged or even covered up. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | I presume more sites than just UMich have gag clauses in their | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | support contracts. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Another thing, and I have no hard data for it just observations, | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | is that the writing style for most news articles has changed | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Perhaps that indicates the mass loss of skilled, trained professionals | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | and their replacement by low dollar lackeys. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Or it could indicate an attempt at wasting readers' time as in | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | increasing so-called "engagement" with the page presented. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Or both. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Apropos the topic of gag clauses: Michigan Lawmakers Signed Nondisclosure Agreements, Can't Discuss Corporate Welfare Scheme | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | https://reason.com/2023/11/14/michigan-lawmakers-signed-nondisclosure-agreements-cant-discuss-corporate-welfare-scheme/ | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Public institutions may not have secret contracts. That could be | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | fought in court, perhaps starting with FOIA. I should write to Mike | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | about all that. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Not sure how to start with a cold-contact e-mail though. | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | Too much of what could have been about FOSS is now infected with | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | M$ GitHub or M$ ShitGPT: | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | https://www.r-bloggers.com/2023/11/dive-into-r-collaborate-with-the-indy-userr-group-as-a-newsletter-contributor/ | Nov 15 05:09 |
| techrights-sec | as one example of many which fail the second layer of triage | Nov 15 05:09 |
| schestowitz-pi | lots of excel bi SPAM in that site | Nov 15 05:11 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am VERY selective with it | Nov 15 05:11 |
| schestowitz-pi | i neeed to constantly remind myselfg | Nov 15 05:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | to focus less on the brands | Nov 15 05:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | else, people choose shitA instead of shitB | Nov 15 05:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | like Google instead of MS Office | Nov 15 05:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | and we get almost nowhere | Nov 15 05:16 |
| schestowitz-pi | i should write more for TM tonight | Nov 15 05:16 |
| schestowitz-pi | a ka | Nov 15 05:16 |
| schestowitz-pi | *a la http://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/15/People_Are_Not_Buying_Many_New_Phones_Anymore_and_That_s_a_Prob.shtml | Nov 15 05:16 |
| techrights-sec | shitA vs shitB is almost always a false dichotomy fallacy | Nov 15 05:18 |
| techrights-sec | ^ topic ? | Nov 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | http://techrights.org/n/2023/11/08/The_Illusion_of_Choice_Apple_Prison_Versus_Microsoft_Prison.shtml | Nov 15 05:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | http://techrights.org/n/2023/10/31/Focus_on_the_Concepts_Not_the_Brands.shtml | Nov 15 05:18 |
| techrights-sec | https://www.txst.edu/philosophy/resources/fallacy-definitions/false-dilemma.html | Nov 15 05:19 |
| techrights-sec | yes, that's one specific example but another could be done with | Nov 15 05:19 |
| techrights-sec | less focus on brands | Nov 15 05:19 |
| techrights-sec | ;) | Nov 15 05:19 |
| techrights-sec | The Google vs MSO is another example of a false dilemma, one specifically | Nov 15 05:22 |
| techrights-sec | intended to exclude Calligra or, more importantly, LibreOffice from | Nov 15 05:22 |
| techrights-sec | mind share. Underneath all that, which they /really/ don't want discussed, | Nov 15 05:22 |
| techrights-sec | would be open standards for productivity software especially in regards | Nov 15 05:22 |
| techrights-sec | to having a universal file format... | Nov 15 05:22 |
| techrights-sec | Then there are the privacy and sovreignty losses that go with "cloud" | Nov 15 05:22 |
| schestowitz-pi | i have added 2 potential topics | Nov 15 05:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | irc tends to discuss wars these days | Nov 15 05:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | hot wars warming up | Nov 15 05:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | btw, https://techrights.org/irc-channel/ | Nov 15 05:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | does a redirection to [o]ld require rule per added page? | Nov 15 05:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | because once we call the export "final" | Nov 15 05:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | (also wiki) we can edit and improve these, over time... for now i treat them as read-only | Nov 15 05:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | and 19-09-22 DB as master copy | Nov 15 05:26 |
| techrights-sec | I think a redirection is needed for each page, but there are "only" 35 of them | Nov 15 05:31 |
| techrights-sec | Redirect permanent /old/ /o/old/ | Nov 15 05:31 |
| techrights-sec | The problem is that m$ has long since become a political movement with | Nov 15 05:31 |
| techrights-sec | strong aspects of a nasty cult | Nov 15 05:31 |
| schestowitz-pi | i don't think msft will go down | Nov 15 05:31 |
| schestowitz-pi | i think it already is | Nov 15 05:31 |
| schestowitz-pi | and so it's like BN, we must not focus on novell only | Nov 15 05:31 |
| techrights-sec | Those people won't vanish, they will splatter across the market and | Nov 15 05:32 |
| techrights-sec | spread rot from within new institutions. It's not like they can be | Nov 15 05:32 |
| techrights-sec | made useful by farming them for bile and marrow transplants until | Nov 15 05:32 |
| techrights-sec | it is time to render them for fertilizer. :P | Nov 15 05:32 |
| techrights-sec | Maybe cult deprogramming tactics and methods are thus relevant in addressing | Nov 15 05:34 |
| techrights-sec | m$ but keep in mind that it has thoroughly permeated both congress and the | Nov 15 05:34 |
| techrights-sec | White House in the US during the last 10 years. | Nov 15 05:34 |
| schestowitz-pi | that is good for later as a mnemonic | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | i think overall we have many important series | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | but need to improve how they are catalogue | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | not like books per se | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | but when the exports are final we can pose and make more versatile indexes | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | and maybe make some with help of programs | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | not confined to some wiki s/w | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | the html is simple enough for parsing and analysis | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | in turn, each such page can become a "landing page" that makes some point | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | for new articles to link to | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | as a bridge | Nov 15 05:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | this can pan out over years | Nov 15 05:38 |
| techrights-sec | tail -f /var/log/apache2/techrights-access.log | awk '$9==404' | Nov 15 05:39 |
| techrights-sec | If one writes an address on a paper letter by hand, the system finds the write address | Nov 15 05:43 |
| techrights-sec | if you use the Finnish names but if you use the Swedish place names, then the system | Nov 15 05:43 |
| techrights-sec | fails. Both languages are official. However, this is being blamed 'on the computer' | Nov 15 05:43 |
| schestowitz-pi | like UMich blaming "internet" or "network" or "computer" | Nov 15 05:44 |
| schestowitz-pi | i need to think this through | Nov 15 05:44 |
| techrights-sec | Or Sampo Pankki responding to inquiries by saying "IBM takes care of the network" when | Nov 15 05:46 |
| techrights-sec | SharePoint falls flat on its face for several consecutive without respite. | Nov 15 05:46 |
| techrights-sec | That 1) prevented people from accessing their own accounts, 2) prevented accounts from | Nov 15 05:46 |
| techrights-sec | receiving money, 3) allowed access to accounts which weren't yours, 4) all of the above. | Nov 15 05:46 |
| techrights-sec | IIRC 2007 | Nov 15 05:46 |
| techrights-sec | IIRC 2007 IIRC SharePoint | Nov 15 05:47 |
| techrights-sec | ^ edited | Nov 15 05:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | thanks | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | important for us to | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | 1) cover many aspects | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | minimise repetinion by linking | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | then sumamriasing in link anchor | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | 2) guess you saw latest in tr re msft debt | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | we can 'compress' a lot of suppressed info without being called k00ks so long as those links are there | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | 3) hard part is getting this info | Nov 15 05:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | as it is rare or lots of work | Nov 15 05:52 |
| techrights-sec | There is likely more Sompi could add regarding 2007 | Nov 15 05:53 |
| techrights-sec | not yet. checking tr ... | Nov 15 05:53 |
| techrights-sec | M$ has not been able to offload debt onto newly purchased companies for a while | Nov 15 05:53 |
| techrights-sec | A robots.txt is needed for tr, btw | Nov 15 05:53 |
| techrights-sec | Do you have one handy? | Nov 15 05:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | robots files are like donotfollow or donnot track | Nov 15 05:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | most disregard them outright | Nov 15 05:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | old TR had nothing substantial in that | Nov 15 05:54 |
| schestowitz-pi | same for gulag sitemaps and amp | Nov 15 05:54 |
| techrights-sec | RIght, they are useless but geneerating a 404 I'll make an empty one | Nov 15 05:56 |
| techrights-sec | Anyway, m$ selling shares to the public is an attempt at printing money | Nov 15 05:56 |
| techrights-sec | buying them back from the executives is a form of embezzlement | Nov 15 05:56 |
| techrights-sec | ^ correction for article | Nov 15 05:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | thanks, a breadth of follow-on/up topics | Nov 15 05:58 |
| schestowitz-pi | trying to come up with new advocacy angle for TM | Nov 15 05:58 |
| schestowitz-pi | something _positive_ | Nov 15 05:58 |
| schestowitz-pi | in 2022 i felt tight for time | Nov 15 06:00 |
| schestowitz-pi | worked nights | Nov 15 06:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | worked full-time | Nov 15 06:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | now with balance sheet at neutral i feel like i opened up a safe corridor | Nov 15 06:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | we can write _right_ rather than under pressure or a lack of sleep | Nov 15 06:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | i do think people experience many difficulties and would appreciate good | Nov 15 06:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | news sometimes | Nov 15 06:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | but in a vacuum it is hard | Nov 15 06:01 |
| *mib_n1bsgk (~b9cec8d2@q8ban9vyag5t6.irc) has joined #tuxmachines | Nov 15 06:02 | |
| schestowitz-pi | hi MinceR | Nov 15 06:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | mib_n1bsgk i mean | Nov 15 06:06 |
| *mib_n1bsgk has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client) | Nov 15 06:07 | |
| techrights-sec | Is this original content? https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/15/Microsoft_is_in_Financial_Trouble_Losing_Lots_of_Money_on_Vapou.shtml | Nov 15 08:14 |
| techrights-sec | It's good, but not marked in any way to indicate whether it is original or not. | Nov 15 08:14 |
| techrights-sec | This one quotesa private conversation /and/ also links to TR: | Nov 15 08:14 |
| techrights-sec | https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/15/When_It_Comes_to_Windows_Total_Cost_of_Ownership_TCO_Including_.shtml | Nov 15 08:14 |
| techrights-sec | TR is a good site but it is important to keep the two sites distinct, IMHO | Nov 15 08:14 |
| techrights-sec | Ok but is important to somehow indicate which content is original content | Nov 15 08:14 |
| techrights-sec | since the default at TM is to use uncited quotes from externals sites, | Nov 15 08:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am making up for it by making TM-centric post atm | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | re china | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | the tm studd is worded more lightly | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | and is limited to particular themes | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | i hope this is ok | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | right, thanks for these suggestions | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | i need to rethink of to do this... | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | ftr, tm started as original content | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | susan even posted stuff about herself | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | and film reviews | Nov 15 08:15 |
| schestowitz-pi | this was months after texstar started pclinuxos | Nov 15 08:16 |
| schestowitz-pi | then she lacked the time to do originals | Nov 15 08:16 |
| schestowitz-pi | so going back to originals, i think, is not faux pas | Nov 15 08:16 |
| techrights-sec | Yes, I liked the old style a lot. The new style is fine if there is more clear | Nov 15 08:18 |
| techrights-sec | indication of what is a blockquote from anothe site and that it be annotated. | Nov 15 08:18 |
| techrights-sec | First, those are the expectations in both journalism and academia. | Nov 15 08:18 |
| techrights-sec | Second, that will avoid big trouble in the future due to weak citation annotation. | Nov 15 08:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | yes, maybe we need "sections" as a concept | Nov 15 08:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | drupal lacked those two | Nov 15 08:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | it was just a "virtual" thing | Nov 15 08:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | in the drupal scheme, custom fields | Nov 15 08:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | like the "forums' | Nov 15 08:18 |
| schestowitz-pi | also jujst virtual | Nov 15 08:18 |
| techrights-sec | TM is really quick to get important FOSS news but perhaps the work flow | Nov 15 08:20 |
| techrights-sec | can be tweaked without adding either burden or delay. | Nov 15 08:20 |
| techrights-sec | It could be possible to add sections to TM but the specs/details must | Nov 15 08:20 |
| techrights-sec | be decided before coding and then tested before rolling them out. | Nov 15 08:20 |
| techrights-sec | The metadata structure already supports it so it is not necessary | Nov 15 08:20 |
| techrights-sec | to modify the db internals, "just" the scripts. | Nov 15 08:20 |
| schestowitz-pi | thinking | Nov 15 08:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | give me some time to think it through while i add another TM original :-) | Nov 15 08:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am sure there is a simple way given the sqlite schema in place | Nov 15 08:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | we discussed it last year anjd it's in my TODO article | Nov 15 08:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | something about virtual sections | Nov 15 08:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | ok, so i added one node | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | does the existing scheme have anything beyond | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | creator | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | date.[cre/mod] | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | desc | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | title | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | SELECT where field="blog" <pseudocode | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | if not, can add a hack on top | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | e.g. "Roy Schestowitz originak" as creator | Nov 15 08:49 |
| techrights-sec | Let's instead add a new input line to the text UI. | Nov 15 08:49 |
| techrights-sec | The default can be 'news' and other options can be typed in. | Nov 15 08:49 |
| techrights-sec | It'll take a few days, I think. I have to set up a local devel | Nov 15 08:49 |
| techrights-sec | instance here first. | Nov 15 08:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | beat me to it | Nov 15 08:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | adding a new "column" would mean undef for many prior rows | Nov 15 08:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | any new feature added will complicate behaviour in the future | Nov 15 08:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | so i thought maybe a hack with the current scheme | Nov 15 08:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | schema | Nov 15 08:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | will enable slicing upon existing data | Nov 15 08:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | so that roy original and roy links are just different handles | Nov 15 08:52 |
| techrights-sec | It's not a new column. See .schema for TM's metadata table. | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | Yep | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | A hack would be far worse | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | The current scheme is retained. THe above would need no modification | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | to the .schema for the metadata table. | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | No, author is the same, the subject or category is different. | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | That distinction can be done using the current schema in the | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | database. | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | No changes are needed to the database, just to the scripts. | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | The UI is the easy part, the back end generator scripts | Nov 15 08:54 |
| techrights-sec | are probably not hard but simply time consuming to expand. | Nov 15 08:55 |
| techrights-sec | Again, I need to set up a devel system here. | Nov 15 08:55 |
| techrights-sec | A second option would be to use distinct body templates to | Nov 15 08:55 |
| techrights-sec | annotate within the body which is a news quote and which is | Nov 15 08:55 |
| techrights-sec | original content. | Nov 15 08:55 |
| schestowitz-pi | how fast is sqlite at scanning long fields? | Nov 15 08:55 |
| schestowitz-pi | i suppose if it LIMITS to "latest" (by date) rows | Nov 15 08:55 |
| schestowitz-pi | it won't take long to scan the body | Nov 15 08:55 |

| schestowitz-pi | i asked sompi about the bank | Nov 15 09:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | he is afk | Nov 15 09:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | gonna start "merged" no, ty :-) | Nov 15 09:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | *now | Nov 15 09:01 |
| techrights-sec | np | Nov 15 09:06 |
| techrights-sec | It is a matter of short fields with joins | Nov 15 09:06 |
| techrights-sec | The second option above would use different HTML markup to | Nov 15 09:06 |
| techrights-sec | differentiate original content and verbatim quotes going forward. | Nov 15 09:06 |
| techrights-sec | The first option above would use DC.Subject or similar to | Nov 15 09:06 |
| techrights-sec | differentiate and would be handled by the scripts, | Nov 15 09:06 |
| techrights-sec | furthermore it could be retrofitted easily onto the existing | Nov 15 09:07 |
| techrights-sec | posts. | Nov 15 09:07 |
| schestowitz-pi | let me think if more can be accomplished with a single stone throw | Nov 15 09:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | up until the migration, using centos, i used php to scan titles for "UPDATED" | Nov 15 09:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | and then set those apart | Nov 15 09:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | so one option is making a marker in titles | Nov 15 09:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | and then the nature is also inherent in rss/gem | Nov 15 09:17 |
| techrights-sec | No, that would be a lot of extra work, like modding the author, | Nov 15 09:17 |
| techrights-sec | and in addition error prone because it would require extra work | Nov 15 09:17 |
| techrights-sec | from the author. | Nov 15 09:17 |
| techrights-sec | I'll see about planning DC.Subject or similar. Again, with that | Nov 15 09:17 |
| techrights-sec | approach the existing database schema does not need modification. | Nov 15 09:17 |
| techrights-sec | Please take a quick look at the schema for the metadata table. | Nov 15 09:17 |
| techrights-sec | P | Nov 15 09:17 |
| schestowitz-pi | the schema files are in the old TM repo (git) | Nov 15 09:22 |
| schestowitz-pi | there are two of them | Nov 15 09:22 |
| schestowitz-pi | one under db | Nov 15 09:22 |
| schestowitz-pi | wait, maybe only one, i cloned it onto two paths | Nov 15 09:22 |
| techrights-sec | on. | Nov 15 09:26 |
| techrights-sec | Please take a quick look at the schema for the metadata table. | Nov 15 09:26 |
| techrights-sec | See also: | Nov 15 09:26 |
| techrights-sec | _poster.html on the RPi here | Nov 15 09:26 |
| techrights-sec | Or: echo .schema | sqlite3 /var/www/tuxmachines.org/db/tm-static-site-generator.sqlite3 | Nov 15 09:26 |
| techrights-sec | on the main server | Nov 15 09:26 |
| techrights-sec | fixing... should be ok now | Nov 15 09:26 |
| techrights-sec | The schema is listed near the bottom of the HTML page | Nov 15 09:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am not on the same group in pi | Nov 15 09:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | so cannot even read | Nov 15 09:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | just get ls (listing) | Nov 15 09:30 |
| techrights-sec | None of the other participants in that project lifted a finger | Nov 15 09:31 |
| techrights-sec | even to review either the design plans or the "final" script's | Nov 15 09:31 |
| techrights-sec | usability. | Nov 15 09:31 |
| techrights-sec | I couldn't even get them to chat about the project | Nov 15 09:33 |
| techrights-sec | informally, now that I think about it. | Nov 15 09:33 |
| techrights-sec | anyway there are the two ways to see the schema | Nov 15 09:33 |
| schestowitz-pi | i covered this in the sirius series | Nov 15 09:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | when you put in some effort | Nov 15 09:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | and nobody else cares or bothers | Nov 15 09:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | so WHY bother? | Nov 15 09:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | sooner or later everyone does the bare minimum | Nov 15 09:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | and that's how companies languish | Nov 15 09:38 |
| techrights-sec | anyway there are the two ways to see the schema | Nov 15 09:40 |
| techrights-sec | The faculty members were no different. They were all chuffed and | Nov 15 09:40 |
| techrights-sec | bragging about electronic theses and dissertations and thhat | Nov 15 09:40 |
| techrights-sec | the university was on the charts there as an early leader, | Nov 15 09:40 |
| techrights-sec | but I could not get a minute of time from any of them in any way | Nov 15 09:40 |
| techrights-sec | shape or form of conversation. | Nov 15 09:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | beaten up dogs bite | Nov 15 09:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | beaten up kids beat up kids | Nov 15 09:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | faculty members assigned to do bullshit job develop BS character | Nov 15 09:41 |
| schestowitz-pi | time to leave :-) | Nov 15 09:41 |
| techrights-sec | Yep ~ 20 years ago | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | I knew they were 'evaluating' M$ Outlook and that it was failing | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | on all metrics -- exactly as I had warned them. They said they | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | would only deploy it if it was better than the existing system | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | -- it wasn't. And I pointed out that if they actually deployed | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | it, I was out the door. They deployed it and when I pointed out | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | all the above, they responded with the m$ talking point "we have | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | to work with what we have", I rebutted that what they had prior | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | to the Outlook deployment was what they really had to work with, | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | and then in the same conversation turned in notice. | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | and was out of there in about a week and a half later. | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | Got very badly ripped off by the Norwegian shipping company though. | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | Negotiated a very, very low price on the Finnish side, which the | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | Norwegian side not only did not honor but iirc increased x9 | Nov 15 09:46 |
| techrights-sec | The Finnish company was livid too. | Nov 15 09:46 |

| schestowitz-pi | 2006 similatr story | Nov 15 09:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | the linux admins quit | Nov 15 09:50 |
| techrights-sec | But at least it took less than a week to arrive, unlike the Swedish | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | company which took 14 months | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | The bologne process was just inflicted on the University which meant | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | that each and every dept got an *extra* layer of administrators | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | inserted between the researchers/teaches and the university administration. | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | And that the overall budgets were cut. And the degree programmes slashed | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | from 5 years to less than 3 years | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | Not even enough credit hours to major in a subject, even if one appliedd | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | *all* elective hours towards the degree topic | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | Yes driving out Linux admins was all the trend back 2005 to 2008 | Nov 15 09:52 |
| techrights-sec | All that mattered from management perspective was getting them out the door | Nov 15 09:52 |

| schestowitz-pi | they outsource | Nov 15 09:58 |
| techrights-sec | British colonization was not perfect but I am coming to the conclusion | Nov 15 10:03 |
| techrights-sec | that it improved life in some areas far beyond what could have ever happened | Nov 15 10:03 |
| techrights-sec | under local rule. It[s not the case everywhere but China and India stand | Nov 15 10:03 |
| techrights-sec | out as having overall vastly benefitted. | Nov 15 10:03 |
| techrights-sec | Indeed if it weren't for the French, there would be no old material on | Nov 15 10:03 |
| techrights-sec | traditional accupuncture. Mao's thugs burned all that they could find | Nov 15 10:03 |

| schestowitz-pi | had to wait like 10 mins till manager came. | Nov 15 18:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | i even caught the culprit lying to me. | Nov 15 18:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | thanks for the TM change, rianne just told me she noticed an error whe posting | Nov 15 18:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | but knew you had been workinf on something (based on "home gossip" :) ) | Nov 15 18:32 |
| schestowitz-pi | i wonder how much money this cashier stole from all clients | Nov 15 18:32 |
| techrights-sec | working with git | Nov 15 18:33 |

| techrights-sec | the usual direct quotes. 'original' is for original content. | Nov 15 18:33 |
| techrights-sec | rianne, marius, etc might notice the extra field in the editor | Nov 15 18:33 |
| techrights-sec | and have it explained | Nov 15 18:33 |
| techrights-sec | Again it is not used by the generator yet, that is the next step | Nov 15 18:33 |

| techrights-sec | I can patch them in a batch if I have a full list of record numbers. | Nov 15 18:33 |

| schestowitz-pi | and spent much time at the store | Nov 15 18:35 |
| schestowitz-pi | rianne tried when i was away | Nov 15 18:35 |
| schestowitz-pi | actually she met me at the street, she walked out as she worried something happened to me | Nov 15 18:35 |
| schestowitz-pi | let me ask her to retry | Nov 15 18:35 |
| schestowitz-pi | (the manager gave me a small voucher, which i did not ask for) | Nov 15 18:35 |
| techrights-sec | Oh, I see the bug, "see:" is printed when it is not needed. | Nov 15 18:36 |
| schestowitz-pi | checked with rianne again, she saw "news" | Nov 15 18:43 |
| schestowitz-pi | checking the error, lifting pc lid | Nov 15 18:43 |

| techrights-sec | ok, I think it's fixed, thanks for spotting it | Nov 15 18:53 |
| techrights-sec | there were some permissions in refresh-site-from-db.sh which needed further | Nov 15 18:53 |
| techrights-sec | adjustment | Nov 15 18:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | excellent, thank you so much! i now see what rianne added when i had been stuck at the shop | Nov 15 18:55 |
| schestowitz-pi | i will stay up till late today as i have 4000 more links of stories to go through | Nov 15 18:55 |
| schestowitz-pi | and guess what, out of those 4000 maybe 500 make the cut | Nov 15 18:55 |
| schestowitz-pi | (i noticed a lot of repetition in political news; not much original reporting) | Nov 15 18:55 |
