Slept from eleven to six without waking.

A thin layer of ice covers everything this morning. High of forty-five today. Decreasing chance of rain.

What does Asterisk link against? ldd!
Twenty-four libraries on gab.
On my Alpine container test:

	--- test-alpine / # ldd /usr/sbin/asterisk
			/lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 (0x56344f1ad000)
			libasteriskssl.so => /usr/lib/libasteriskssl.so (0x7f6102e82000)
			libxml2.so.2 => /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2 (0x7f6102b56000)
			libsqlite3.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0 (0x7f610288c000)
			libjansson.so.4 => /usr/lib/libjansson.so.4 (0x7f6102680000)
			libuuid.so.1 => /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x7f610247c000)
			libncursesw.so.6 => /usr/lib/libncursesw.so.6 (0x7f6102227000)
			libc.musl-x86_64.so.1 => /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 (0x56344f1ad000)

How nice or annoying is it to call shell commands from Lua?

OK. Not paremeterized.

rc shell. Worth learning? Still maintained?

Yeah, it's maintained.

OpenRC: as bad as my first taste indicates or not?
http://manpages.org/openrc-run/8

Why could I not ssh into work from home last night? Updated sshd on falstaff??
I forgot to open port 22 when I recreated my iptables rules. Fixed.

Work:
- Wrap up basic runit notes
  Done.
- Asterisk containerization
  https://paulgorman.org/technical/asterisk-alpine-lxc.txt
- Answer above questions
  Mostly.

Fifteen minute walk at lunch. Still slightly foggy.

Home:
- Run pkg upgrade on blinky
  Done.
- Finish wandering monster list maker in Danger Jaunt
  Done.
- SEMIBUG meeting (Ansible)
  No.
  I got distracted trying to figure out OpenRC, the worst documented of the popular init systems, and left too late.
  I ended up going to see Rogue One instead.
  SPOILERS.
  Not uplifting.

How the Young Are Indoctrinated to Obey

> In short, when they have the opportunity, “the Masters of Mankind” pursue their “vile maxim” all for ourselves and nothing for other people,” as Adam Smith explained long ago.
> Mass public education is one of the great achievements of American society. It has had many dimensions. One purpose was to prepare independent farmers for life as wage laborers who would tolerate what they regarded as virtual slavery.
> The coercive element did not pass without notice. Ralph Waldo Emerson observed that political leaders call for popular education because they fear that “This country is filling up with thousands and millions of voters, and you must educate them to keep them from our throats.” But educated the right way: Limit their perspectives and understanding, discourage free and independent thought, and train them for obedience.
> Since then, many measures have been taken to restore discipline. One is the crusade for privatization – placing control in reliable hands.
> Another is sharp increases in tuition, up nearly 600 percent since 1980. These produce a higher education system with “far more economic stratification than is true of any other country,” according to Jane Wellman, former director of the Delta Cost Project, which monitors these issues. Tuition increases trap students into long-term debt and hence subordination to private power.
> Some of the most insidious effects are on teaching and monitoring. The Enlightenment ideal of education was captured in the image of education as laying down a string that students follow in their own ways, developing their creativity and independence of mind.
> The alternative, to be rejected, is the image of pouring water into a vessel – and a very leaky one, as all of us know from experience. The latter approach includes teaching to test and other mechanisms that destroy students’ interest and seek to fit them into a mold, easily controlled. All too familiar today.
