slave boss is deep in the bowels of a research lab, stirring demons, cackling
a mean experienced torturer is running from slave boss with his cartoon evilness
mean experienced torturer: "don't be evil to me, slave boss!"
ice cream is full of spikes "well why did you buy icecream from the "dangerously spiked icecream" store?" "i thought it meant the icecream was alcoholic. i didn't think it would mean there would be barbs in my cone." "excuse me! we are getting wounded from trying to eat the "spiked" icecream." "that's what you bought and why we had you sign a waiver!"
contract with slave boss. slave boss promises to deliver 39 widgets. you agree that they will be delivered by victims of slavery and trafficking who may try to escape, bore or terrify you with tales of being slaved and needing aid, etc etc etc.

slave boss doing business AI prediction model informed by global surveillance data warns that somebody planning to schedule appointment with him to open new contract
something briefly seemed funny to the expected appointment, like was this person from a country that doesn't legalize slavery? or were their not involved with the international crime rings? anyway slave boss thought he saw it wrong
almost time for the meeting! slave boss is ready to chat crowd control packages or widgets, whatever have you. where is the client? are they a little late? obviously they don't have massive datacenters planning their day or they would be slave boss instead of slave boss. slave boss goes to check if appointment was actually made
oh! only a couple minutes had passed. oops. slave boss is getting old. the potential client was only considering making an appointment, but had not actually made one ... yet? slave boss better ask machine learning marketer about this extreme punctuality. it is impressive though!
[[[some information lost regarding superfast appointments it sounds like [[appointment already over, client was scared of slave boss and did not like slavery, but did not have a way to prove that slave boss slaved in their country. in their country slavery is done by other words, like "influence". appointment may have happened in research lab space and slave boss has amnesia around it
"you agree that the widgets will be delivered by slaves bla bla bla" "slavery is illegal, isn't it?" "i dunno, i assumed it was?" "slavery is technically legal if--" "no, slavery is illegal everywhere. we fought wars for this!" "you can't slave here! this is a free country!" "i am not slaving in your coun--" -- "it is making my clients unhappy that the agreement requires consenting to slavery. they say they refuse to buy--
slave boss tries redrafting [potential? business agreements "you agree .. that the widgets will be delivered by people ... influenced heavily to be highly highly skilled at delivering and protecting widgets ..." slave boss likes that part. maybe he will ask machine learning marketer
slave boss: "machine learning marketer, you are new to slavery i imagine. usually we force the slaves to never mention slavery. but these slaves are complaining, asking for freedom. i see that profits have risen and risen despite this--" slave boss thinks maybe he is bugging machine learning marketer and should sort the business agreement out on his own
janitor and machine learning marketer put on a well-rehashed presentation for slave boss with visually striking slides to help slave boss remember slide 1: "this country already knows you are slaving everybody and used to do business with you" slide 2: "previously, they were stealing your workers thinking they were "rescuing" them" slave boss: "oh i had forgotten that! how rude!"
might want to remove slide 2 slide 3: "with the victims complaining and asking for help, we can send people out to roleplay helping them" slide 4: "this keeps business functioning hunky dory!" slave boss is happy and leaves machine learning marketer and janitor to plan overtaking his enterprises more
slave boss: "i can see everybody is a little frozen up and considering stimulating another intense event to resolve it." slave boss: "but i can see that me and free country could be at a standstill. if they learn i slave people and don't tell me, it's similar to if i don't tell them i slave people. we can't know about things we can't check." slave boss: "sorry you had to get caught up in this." [slave boss may possibly be apologizing for a later fight to the death]
slave boss drafts business agreement with some discouragement "you agree to do business with us even though we partner with organizations that participate in human slavery. you agree to keep this information confidential." [still a draft]
ok so the current bug is presenting likely because the data in the regions list differs from the actual data because it is mutated inside the loop
the _intent_ of the logic was to only use data from in front of the cursor, and only mutate data behind it. for idx in range(1, len(regions)): self.fsck() head0, prev0 = regions[idx-1] tail0 = self.q[head0+1] + head0 assert self.q[prev0] == head0 # <- head1, prev1 = regions[idx] tail1 = self.q[head1+1] + head1 assert self.q[prev1] == head1 self.fsck() if tail0 == head1: # remove region0 assert self._calc_unused() == unused if prev1 == head0: assert head1 != prev0 self.q[prev0] = head1 prev1 = prev0 else: assert self.q[head0] != prev0 self.q[prev0] = self.q[head0] assert self._calc_unused() == unused - (tail0 - head0) assert self.q[head1] != head0 self.q[head0] = self.q[head1] # set region0's next to region1's next self.q[head0+1] = tail1 - head0 # set region0's length to region0's + region1's assert head0 != prev1 self.q[prev1] = head0 # reseat region1 to be region0 + region1 assert self._calc_unused() == unused self.fsck() else: assert tail0 < head1 assert self._calc_unused() == unused but because it's a linked list dependencies can be arbitrarily intertwined without regard to sorted order
some interest in are bugs precious and we protect them, or are they bad and we squash them? well, software and insectoid bugs are different. but there's shared value in strongly understanding them. we want to know these things.
with a potentially irritating living bug, it can seem to some very easy to squash it. but it's hard to learn about it. it's hard to follow it and learn what it notices and values and does. you need to observe a lot of different places. i don't have all the answers yet because i used to consider synonyms as unrelated.
