<oriansj>lrvick: hopefully it gets the exposure that you are hoping for.

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> lrvick: isn't it 256 byte now

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> not 357

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> oh, maybe even less

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> somebody sharnk it to 190

<stikonas>oriansj: have you merged that to stage0-posix-x86?

<stikonas>hmm, possibly no

<stikonas>I think hex0.hex0 is out of sync

<daddy>I believe we're still on an older version that is 357 bytes.

<daddy>(that's my fault: i have yet to upgrade it)

<daddy>[update?]

<stikonas>anyway, we are also out of sync between bootstrap seeds and stage0-posix-x86

<stikonas>on that PR (https://github.com/oriansj/bootstrap-seeds/pull/44) I've just asked goldstein to update it too. Hopefully they'll be kind enough to do so

<Googulator>it's interesting how both the hex0 POSIX binary and builder-hex0 stage1 converged in 190~192 bytes

<Googulator>*converged on

<ovf>Googulator: i see this all the time in code golf. the top solutions will have equal character count and little else in common. i like to think this is some evidence of information theory in action. :-)

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> Well, this is a bit comparing apples and oranges

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> POSIX hex0 would have this size with POSIX header

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> Without header, it is quite a bit smaller

<matrix_bridge><Andrius Štikonas> Builder-hex0 stage1 is about 200 bytes when looking at just code, with MBR header/footer it is 512 bytes, though largely padding with zeroes
