mircea_popescu: phf kinda curious how you'll solve the various byzantine problems of
a multibot setup.
phf: yeah, but the bot explicitly doesn't reconnect, because i don't want to lose messages and introduce continuity break. perhaps i should just do that as
a "good enough" measure, but i want to just write
a communicating-multi-bot setup over the weekend
phf: i apologize for downed log, everything's operational, but my backup logs are on
a secure machine, that i can't access from mobile. log will be back at 2pm EST
phf: logger down, will recover in
a few
davout: you have
a point, i'll update the report accordingly
mircea_popescu: these 0.1 btc came out of my own pocket, as
a credit towards bitbet, that now has to be unwound.
mircea_popescu: my idea is that while it's true that the proceeds from house bets shouldn't be counted against the shareholders - it is at the same time the actual sum of those bets as made should count as
a credit for me.
mircea_popescu: now im lost as to why the fuck i had
a 199 figure which matches netiehr of these ;/
mircea_popescu: davout meanwhile, accounting points out another snag. specifically, while it's correct that the proceeds of house bets go to shareholders ; it's incorrect that the bets themselves come out of thin air. the bitbet house bets were not
a personal gift of mp to the bitbet shareholders, they were an expense undertook by said shareholders, which i generously (and perhaps ineptly) floated for them. so should be on liability side.
davout: mircea_popescu: re your comments, you took the previous hw numbers (i made
a small mistake in accounting its amount)
ben_vulpes: the rare deadline about which i give
a shit
mircea_popescu: anyway ; marissa o'hare was
a party girl 15-20 years ago. always lulzy to see gals still clinging on to their "29" pix.
ben_vulpes: that is not
a flattering photo of ms riskin
ben_vulpes: and just for lolz, let's see what this looks like in
a plain text browser
ben_vulpes: lol and lindsay anderson doesn't even give enough of
a shit to put up anything other than
a party pic
mircea_popescu: didja know wiener media is
a thing ? hired some chick that shoulda been
a stripper to "senior director of something or the other"
mircea_popescu: they have
a page with obscure executivs from anodyne shitshows providing social proof. CAREER, hombre.
gribble: Error: "tcker" is not
a valid command.
shinohai: :Unlike the competition, we can gyarantee 81.3% uptime at
a minimum"
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, this bitly thing is out of the www fantasy lmao. " 24/7 Security We’re looking out for you. We have
a dedicated IT team monitoring your account 24/7 and guaranteed 99% uptime. We’re always on the lookout, so you don’t have to be."
mircea_popescu: davout so i'm thinking this is all good. getting back to
http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-08#1448430 i guess we rectify it to i owe you 199.45006789, you owe me 4.83378422 hw credit + 50 for mpex shareholders + 15.00178846 my share (i'm taking it you'll be paying kakobrekla's directly ?) which leaves
a net of 129.61449521. that right ?
☝︎ mircea_popescu: including five straight months of 1/4 gb ram box at close to
a btc/month pulling our dicks.
mircea_popescu: mats yeah.
a fucking year with this, if you can believe it.
punkman: been developing
a serious aversion to replacing or buying new hardware
punkman: and hope you can put together
a kernel that works with your shit
gribble: Error: "up" is not
a valid command.
mod6: used to be here every small town had
a guy, and you didnt fuck with him
mod6: its
a lost skill up here for the most part.
mircea_popescu: well
a pheasant you're done with in what, 15 minutes solo
mod6: i do clean my own phesants, about 50 per year. but thats easy, and
a lot different than
a large animal.
mircea_popescu: and you know, boar weighs about the same as
a large number of sacks of potatoes
mod6: me? i've done
a deer
a few times
mircea_popescu: you ever took
a live animal and turned it into steaks ?
mod6:
a man learns when he's hungry
mod6: but, alf seems to know something about rabbit stew; with
a decent shotgun, small game is easy.
mod6: only needs an axe, flint, steel and
a matchbook calculator
gribble: Error: "bc,rewardhalf" is not
a valid command.
gribble: Error: "bc,halfreward" is not

ben_vulpes: software qua software is
a mystery to me, asciilifeform.
ben_vulpes: system works so well they never needed
a hand afterwards
ben_vulpes: documentation generation for
a 747 retrofitter at one point
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: yes, human interaction. i'm
a derpy american business-ish hustler who also does software as it pertains to the /businesses/.
mod6: except for the $12 bj's. that's
a decent perk
mod6: the main thing is; i've gotta get the makefiles in proper order, and basically, iirc, they already are real close.. but the thing I gotta work out is making
a vpatch to add them to the source tree.
ben_vulpes: not on its own, but as
a necessary requisite.
ben_vulpes: try to eke out
a few dollars here and there.
ben_vulpes: i still labor under the delusion that i'll crap out something someone like myself will find useful that will pay for me to relax
a bit.
mod6: im not sure which is more depressing actually, shitshoveling in
a jerva shitstack all day, or walmart. make me want to pitch
a tent in Mr. P.'s garden instead and work on math machine, even if futile. would be more rewarding than the shit i do on an avg. work day
ben_vulpes: i would vastly rather shovel this shit in my own office with my hand-selected brothers and sisters in arms than travel sixty minutes each direction to work on the once-every-two-years cool multiphysics projects $semicorp has on offer or 1.25 hours for the opportunity to labor in
a machine shop with men who think boats are
a good investment
mod6: here's
a matter of fact: no one pays with actual cash. ebt 4 everyone.
mod6: same lady, week after week buying the same full cart of vagicreme. same guys night after night wrestling over
a spot in line at 01:59 am to see who would get sold the last 40
mod6: for about 8 months, and spent time working nights in
a tucson walmart in the ghetto
ben_vulpes: it is
a miserably lazily implemented language.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: in
a sense. there's
a $shitlang conference up there this weekend, and the meatwot has graciously coughed up some introductions.
mod6: basically, im just gonna end up creating
a sandbox - inflate v054 from V, and throw in trinque's makefiles and start doing what needs doing.
mod6: might be
a bit early for ben_vulpes, but he'll probably catch us on the tail end.
mod6: i agree,
a bit of
a plan would be good. hold me to something i think.
mod6: during the day has been horrid for me for the last ~3 weeks. but, will try to stop in tomorrow night and discuss
a bit.
mod6: yeah, i've been
a bit mia because of all this shit-shoveling i've had to do lately.
mircea_popescu: prolly should have
a sit down and get goals together tomorrow or somesuch ?
mod6: and writing
a lexigraphical parser in scheme, poorly.
mod6: there's
a bunch of stuff, even
a gpg bin?
mod6: 1.1Gfiles.bitcoin-assets.com/ << but there's even
a movie in here, wot tarballs, bitstamp incident report,e tc.
mod6: i did
a recursive wget on this files.bitcoin-assets.com and alf has his own dir. lol
mircea_popescu: mike_c yes, it';s necessarily generalizable ; i linked
a generalisation for convenience.
mod6: im more interested in like
a d16
mike_c: hehe, that threw me for
a loop
mike_c: personally if doing something like that I'd setup
a read slave
mircea_popescu: db can even be maintained in
a shared, hashed, headless, distributed manner
a la torrents
