    @mattskala Wasn't aware you were the one who wrote the colored bits article. It's a classic! Very illuminating.

    @mattskala The EOS solution is governance and human structures, not better code. Larimer partly agrees with you.

    @shellkr Nix will use /tmp when it is building a derivation, I'll give you that. But in this case it wasn't building anything and it wasn't running out of disk space, as the error message clearly showed.

    As I have a huge swap I can also have a huge tmpfs, I usually set it to the same size, so in this case my /tmp will be 200% of my RAM. It will be fine, it's just files, not the data structures of some tight loop.

    That's the last I will say about this.

    @shellkr The scenario in https://social.heldscal.la/notice/7279155 was that I was out of memory. The tmpfs does not directly affect how much memory I have. Had the error message been that I was running out of space on /tmp or /dev/shm, tmpfs would have been relevant (except /tmp isn't even a tmpfs yet on this machine). But I think this discussion has stranded. Let's talk about something else some other time.

    Where is the fuzzy component in code as law?

    https://forum.cardano.org/t/the-missing-bit-arbitration/11536

    One think I like about EOS is that they have actually put some thought into this, so that there can be a defined process for making ad-hoc adjustments, rather than the messy thing that happened around The DAO on ETH.

      The missing bit: arbitration
      from Cardano Forum
      Hello Cardano community members, I’ve been observing the development of the smart contract paradigm, and one issue has been bothering me. I know it’s bound to generate arguments, but I’m raising the topic anyway because it’s the single biggest obstacle to the mainstream adoption of the smart contracts. Human arbitration. Software will always have bugs. There will always be gray zones. I don’t have to tell you about the DAO incident. OK, if there’s something as egregious as the DAO, the commun...

    @clacke There are some tricks that minecraft uses because it's limited in height - they can use RLE and change the xyz coordinate byte order to make it more compressible.

    A technique I'm looking at are using space filling curves since i'm more interested in fast access to local changes, but they also seem to function well for fully 3d arbitrary chunk streaming.

    @ayy Because it doesn't lack the features that Notepad lacks.

    I use either WordPad, vi or Emacs, basically. Or now that Notepad has been fixed, Notepad, vi or Emacs.

    But currently I don't even use Windows, so that's nice.

    If you work on the items of some big task in alphabetical order, the shitty item that breaks your whole process always starts with z.

    @ultimape I've been curious for some time how Minetest does its worlds. My son and I have been playing a lot, and he really does whatever comes to mind, where I would have barriers in my mind as to what might be possible or interesting.

    He has dug holes so deep, just digging straight down, that if you jump in it takes like half a minute to fall to the bottom, and along the way you occasionally come across huge cave systems that you can explore.

    I wonder if it's all procedurally generated, and it stores sparse data about how your actions of digging and building have made it diverge from the generated base.

    @ayy Lack of features is a feature.

    Notepad is great, except for that one thing that has been annoying for 20 years.

    Now that it supports newlines, I no longer need WordPad for anything.

    Mostly asking this stuff because I thought people might have other thoughts.

    My interests are developing massively scalable game worlds, so anything that has good support for scaling stuff out (like akka) would be a boon.

    My interests are mostly in not reinventing the wheel here, so i'd rather not learn entirely knew languages like erlang or haskell if I can avoid it.

    Microsoft Notepad has now been perfected. It supports CR and LF line endings, and has decoupled status bar and word wrapping. :-)

      Introducing extended line endings support in Notepad
      from Windows Command Line Tools For Developers
      For many years, Windows Notepad only supported text documents containing Windows End of Line (EOL) characters - Carriage Return (CR) & Line Feed (LF). This means that Notepad was unable to correctly display the contents of text files created in Unix, Linux and macOS. For example, here’s a screenshot of Notepad trying to display the...
