"27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them" - Genesis 1:27 KJV
This is before any mention of Eden or Adam or Eve.
Clearly also "man" here is probably not well translated for modern english, and means "mankind" or "humans" plural because it uses the plural pronoun at the end of the sentence, "them".
I am only quoting that one verse but the entire first chapter is the context and that chapter is the entire story of creation of the universe, but focused on our planet.
Just to be clear, the first chapter of the Bible clearly permits the notion of plenty of time prior to the arrival of Adam in Eden, and plenty of humans to exist other than Adam and Eve...

well, you can do pretty things to it but the light outline, and the dark on light has to be the same, but you can replace the square pixels with little circles or whatever so long as they are a reasonable size, and due to the optional level of error correction you can wipe out even (any? or at least the centre) 1/9th of the code on higher levels of error correction and put an icon in there

using the pthreads library would be a bit more performant than Go's concurrency if you can fan out your processing for bulk stuff like what @nprofile…akns wants to do, and really the flexibility of Go's concurrency is overkill for simple parallel work, it's a little confusing to do it that way, it's more optimized towards event processing for servers, but the design of it was originally created for GUI (newsqueak)
go is actually not so great at parallelism, you can gain as much as 20% even while adding the overhead of an IPC and using single threaded worker processes (at least that was the situation in 2020, not sure maybe they have improved it by now) - but having said that, it's so much faster than for example python or javascript, that losing that last 20% of parallelism is probably not gonna hurt that much, and if you want it scaled up that much, like on a threadripper or epyc or something, well, you'd probably not be using Go, but C and pthread
go is pretty fast for single thread processing, not much slower than C, especially if you don't allocate and discard a lot of memory, walking trees and graphs is cheap, everything stays on the stack/registers
but yes, explicit types are a thing... i ported a hamming code algorithm from C some years back and the hardest part of the process was figuring out the implied bid widths, and this is pretty much par for teh course with C, your use of explicit types is probably a bit uncommon among C programmers
personally, i would remove the distinction in Go where on 32 bit hardware it treats the `int` type as 32 bits... it should just always be 64 bits, except where used in array indexes, this is one area it's implicit, and 64 bit array indexes is a waste of space, ain't nobody got that much memory lol, but it's not a difference that anyone really encounters because Go on embedded 32 bit devices is pretty much not a thing, except for tinygo, which is not really go, though it is go (has more controls for memory management, but still lets you do all the nice interface/dynamic array stuff, and Go's concurrency can even operate on a single thread

not sure what i did different, but over the last few days i have been condensing all my stuff relating to #nostr #relay #dev
https://realy.lol
just now took the code i had reworked to use my codecs and much of my protocol helpers and lo and behold, here's the fails in the @nprofile…4luh relay test:
```
Supports EOSE: FAIL (Timed out without EOSE)
Keeps open incomplete subscriptions after EOSE: FAIL (Timed out without EOSE)
Keeps open incomplete subscriptions after EOSE: FAIL (Timed out without EOSE)
```
i will fix these errors shortly, they are probably very simple, it should be sending eose after it finds everything but probably it's because i made the filter API synchronous per websocket instead of the way fiatjaf did it, with a messy concurrent channel API
this is working with fiatjaf's new `relayer`, as it is from the base it uses almost exclusively my own original codec for everything, and including the filter matching functions, which i debugged with the help of Mikes testing tool previously, currently except for the nip-11 relay information document
i'm calling it `realy` because i keep on making that typo from the word relay, and i think it's kinda funny, probably many won't even get it... and just to point out that `strfry` means a C function that makes a random anagram out of a string (string fry)
it also has some other tools, a vanity npub miner and a reverse proxy tool but tbh i'm not sure if they are working as it is right now, but they are useful and related tools to the main relay and the library
i will be further polishing this up but it can be used as is
the main planned improvements are related to configuration of the database, and after that, a CLI interface that works over DM that enables potentially paying for relay subscriptions, and managing adding and removing access for npubs, removing them, probably adding advanced filtering controls for access so that paid users can have all of their chats and discussions posted to the relay without any additional configuration while preventing spammy replies from getting on the relay

there is no question that C is more complicated to learn than Go, but Go gives you a lot of teh performance (about 90%, and the main limitations are that Go is not so good at parallelism compared to using pthreads)
i'd also suggest trying C because it's pretty good for writing simple mathematical algorithms with, but the implicit types get messy, and personally one of the things i hate about Go is the fact that the `int` type is 32 bit on 32 bit hardware, and you see this sometimes in code, people using explicit int64 (signed) in a lot of places even though in practice, almost nobody puts serious servers on 32 bit processors

"safer"
what is safer about a language that has macros and the ability to tamper with memory directly versus another that has a lot of obstacles to doing this kind of tampering?
the only difference in memory safety between the two languages is you can get a performance problem in Go if you just fling out a bazillion new buffers for no reason, use them once and then forget about them... and then you need to consider a freelist
there is no buffer overflow vulnerability in valid code in either language
i tell you what the safety problem with rust is
the protocol has to be designed to be secure, most vulns these days are protocol level not buffer overflow
so, Rust is fixing a problem from 20 years ago with an overly complex syntax that really is just hints for a really dumb GC, and go has a sophisticated, 15 year old GC that builds upon its own experience and that of Java's GCs and other GC using languages
this "safety" thing is illusory
what's unsafe is hard to read code, and complex syntax and the red flag is that it takes 100 times longer to compile it

@nprofile…nfr5 you are right, it is the same
maybe a higher exponent will flatten it further but it's not hard to see it's already getting quite flat now anyway, like, there is a trend that is decelerating by about the same amount each cycle, but it gets closer and closer to a normal y=x*coeff as time goes on... with that power ratio though, so, just to remember in the linear it's gonna be ... well
somewhere between 150-300 this time, and probably 4x as much as that next time, assuming no hyperinflation, at which point the USD value means nothing anymore

you need to normalize data to its underlying scaling pattern, or you can't see the patterns in the visualisation
a circle looks like a line with a big enough coefficient compared to the area under the plot, that's the point... a circle is a line, in a partial higher dimension, and same goes for two dimensional statistical data comparing two variables (time and price in this case) - patterns appear in a cluster of data when you normalize it
it's not saying the graph is the normal pattern, necessarily, but if you find a good curve fit it is often predictive

saying they are the same is like saying "on a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone falls to zero" or that "a circle normalizes to a line", it's an a = a expression
that's precisely my point... it fits a progression that has a base to it and it's somewhere around 2, for sure... it may diverge from that now but we have a long history and the divergence is not likely to be more than a standard deviation based on the correct baseline

2024-09-16 14:30:33

very nice... see, it does demonstrate my point, the data is much closer to a line in the log2
yes, i remember, actually, there is a nice simple web script you can make with a html embedding some CDN scripts and you push the data points into it and it renders a nice graph... i used it with a difficulty adjustment graph that compared hashrate to the block time
i think what i am digging at is that there is a particular curve that fits the chart closest to a linear progression, it could be log e, or maybe a little under 2, like maybe even the square root of 2 is a better fit
the purpose of the exercise is to illustrate how over 15 years there has been a fairly consistent path in the price curve that probably can be expected to continue, really, you probably can just overlay and offset the correct power curve line as the normal level but seeing it linear and scaled to make the SDs the same width helps a lot in understanding it i think

just look at how they appear on a globe in the second picture i posted
they are a little off center, yes, but their position is related to the density of ferromagnetic materials in the crust... notice how the "south" one is more scattered?
the solidified rock of the crust is not mobile, and cannot move, if the magnetic field changes substantially, and this happens when you have a massive crossing of our field with the ambient galactic magnetic field
when magnetic flux lines oppose, they create a temporary zone of low magnetism, and in this case, the crustal permanent magnetic alignments will start to become stronger and will make it more likely that the crust is going to slip in order to line up the crustal field with the core field
this is what caused the Great Flood

the proportionality is precisely related to the time
if bitcoin is a hedge against inflation, then you would see that against the right approximate ratio of the growth rates between the two, and the proportional changes scaled vertically so the more it goes up, the less it goes up on the chart, you flatten out the variance of the exchange rate and start to see the actual adoption rate over time, and if the proportional change rate matches up closely to what is actually happening, then it will follow a linear path, time versus value should find a close to x=y ratio somewhere between the linear price and the log10
understanding this ratio correctly, and since we are coming up to the end of the fourth cycle, should give a better estimation of the likely next cycle peak, and the ones after that, and as the time continues this ratio will tend to smooth out due to the averaging of the total timescale
i'm just saying, that because bitcoin's supply is power of 2, a log2 chart is the right one to use because the supply is decreasing at that rate, so its value should thus become close to linear at that scale

yes and my whole point is currently what we see is a faster flattening in the early part of the graph just like the graph of these curves shows
in any case, if fiat supply is growing roughly on a power of ten basis, but the bitcoin supply grows on a power of 2 basis, then yes, at a larger scale and longer timeline it's still going to flatten out, but not so soon as only 3 halving cycles in... you can literally correlate these relationships to the coordinates on this example graph

this represents the two different zeroes based on log10 (black) and log2 (red) with their respective double and half values, which is the range you'd see on the chart
i added this one to illustrate how especially in the early part of the graph the angle of the log2 version is going to mean a more linear result against time for our price chart

this is the comparison of the linear, log2 and log10 zero points on a graph
obviously the log10 (which is implicitly what is meant when log is used alone) is a flatter curve
the log2 curve decelerates slower and longer to reach the same gradient

#asknostr is there ANYONE out there with a #bitcoin price chart that is scaled to a power of two (log2) vertical axis instead of either linear or log 10?
i'd really like to see how it looks, i bet it's a straight line to the moon
the reason being, that its issuance rate is based on halving which creates a power of 2 "power" factor to the price movement... which means it's going to look like it's flattening out on a log10 - if i remember how these map to each other - a 20% deceleration over the 4 year timescale, which is your log(10)/log(2) which is effectively log(5)

the biggest thing this solves for my situation is now i have a back-end home server that has a wireguard tunnel with sub 5ms ping, where my local back-end services run, and where before i had them all connected out to the VPS, routing to them is an out-and-back which for my bulgarian VPS is almost 200ms, like being in the old days in teh noughties connecting to USA servers, but it's only 100ms by direct
so i get the best of both, and it's easy af to set up
i could now theoretically do the same thing to the VPS and forward its outbound traffic to yet another VPS else where, probably some fancy script i can find where i put it into a russian-friendly data centre location, and use geoip to split-forward my traffic so i can access both sides of the new iron curtain... it's a real thing btw... i had a VPS in kazakhstan with wireguard connected to it and i gave up on it because so many websites blocked my access because from hostile zone lol

i know, and even, i once rode a coach from amsterdam to rome, we crossed borders at belgium, france, luxembourg, switzerland and then to italy, and at france we had to do a passport checkpoint, i think also at switzerland, i forget exactly, but definitely france, and me and my dutch friend and a black dude with a prosthetic leg were singled out for drug search as well
oh, nice to not need a visa still but every border crossing is going to become like the old days
in any case, even outside the EU it's the same, as EU citizens have 90 day free visa, turkey as well, probably others too, i think ukraine for sure, with an EU passport you can just drop in and pop out to many countries but all of them border check border check log record log record "oh you loook suspicious we are going to single you out for a pat down"

i just chained some wireguard tunnels together
i have my mini pc, running zorin os 17.1 with a wireguard server on one subnet, and on my VPS, where my reverse proxy points to, i have a second one that only my mini pc connects to
lots of complicated explanations i found on the search and on reddit of course, but none of them explained the simple way to chain them
at least, i use this to set my wireguard servers up:
https://github.com/angristan/wireguard-install
which puts all the required routing nonsense into the servers config in the postup/postdown parts so all the proper forwarding happens
the two things you have to do:
any middle node (ie, not the client or endpoint) needs to have ipv4 forwarding enabled (maybe ipv6 too if your VPS has ipv6 just for the funsies, i didn't bother because my VPS doesn't and idwtf about ipv6 NAT anyway, seems to me like you can't do that, you either have an address or it's not routeable, yes, the VPNs all have IPv6 by default and seems that things often use them)
with that enabled, you go to your middleman, and where it currently has forwarding to your gateway-connected device (ie, the one the machine connects to the internet with, like my mini pc's ethernet) you need to change all of the lines with `MASQUERADE` so that instead of referring to this device as their forwarding/NAT path, instead you put in the wgX device that the middleman has a client connection to your next in line (or endpoint)
simple as that
i highly recommend that wireguard-install script btw, makes wireguard setup just a set of questions and copy/paste, and even, for portable/mobile devices when you add clients it generates QR codes that you can scan to enable the tunnel with

Port Arthur... a totally staged and fabricated incident involving a special forces soldier and lots of video of the alleged killer in cloudy lighting on a day that was clear and sunny... and they almost killed the "suspect" while in custody with arson, the whole thing was a total sham...
that a non-military trained person could effectively kill over 30 people in a crowded coffee shop without leaving one survivor to report their memory of the face of the shooter is a total red flag... the dude who did it was an arch marksman

oh this remote thing is nice... it stays running so i don't have to stop and restart it, that always causes nonsense to happen that requires rebuilding caches, now they just stay running... this could actually be better than either native, or WSL, or doing it with linux, getting the best of both worlds here... pretty screen, stable functioning IDE that basically stays open

hopefully this will be working good... using windows as my workstation front end, but all my dev work is running on my mini pc via intellij SSH remote IDE thingy
seems to use a lot of memory but processing not so much, and teh interface isn't sluggish... running intellij inside a vmware vm was unbearably glitchy, running two monitors on the mini pc was like 25fps lol this seems to get me everything... fingers crossed that's that and i have got all my ducks in my row
also rediscovered the windows monitor calibration tool... nice to have all the colours mostly about the same now

anyway, i eat my own dogfood, this serves my own domains and golang vanity redirects and nip-05, and now it serves up my new sectigo CA wildcard domain *.mleku.dev which means i can add infinity subdomains to it without getting throttled by letsencrapped
