asciilifeform: i eventually put back the heathen bios on the x60, BUT i ida'd it and nop'd out the imbecile nic whitelist ☟︎☟︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 29-02-2016 16:55:32; asciilifeform: so at this point i'm satisfied that rms either 1) does not actually use an x60 machine with 'libreboot' ~~or~~ does not program.

pete_dushenski: http://i.imgur.com/NxwksNr.webm << skull/lycra suit isn't unlike bear suit.
assbot: Logged on 10-04-2015 19:15:42; ascii_field: Chillum: the entire exercise is what i call a 'bear suit'
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420833 << not sure how transparency was 'unthinking' but i had largely the same train of thought last night as i was composing 'salvage' piece (ie. hashes, first few characters). ☝︎
pete_dushenski: i'm not discussing bets that haven't been resolved
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 08:53:24; ben_vulpes: and i don't want any more fucking scultors enough people already look at sera and say "oh herp derp i can make shapes with plate steel"
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420812 << hahaha i had this exact same debate with fillie at guggenheim bilbao over serra's 'the matter of time'. she fucking hated it, i defended it, but probably to play foil as much as anything. this was a few years ago however, though i do still see his works once or twice a year in toronto's pearson airport ('tilted spheres'). i will grant them their ability to bre ☝︎
pete_dushenski: made me long to see a real ballet. i think i'll wait until the royal winnipeg is in town next.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420808 << i took in the alberta ballet's nutcracker in december, which is the local company. there were no more than 3 of the cast who could actually dance. the rest were trying to 'fake it till you make it', which drove me up the wall, particularly when the mouth-breathing audience took it upon themselves to give the sorry lot a standing o. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: hey, i swear i hadn't read it when i said.
asciilifeform: sturles: i recommend to look at the code, you're in for some surprises.
sturles: I haven't looked closely at the code. My node behaves like any other node would. Except it keeps a part of the mempool protected from fee based eviction based on priority.
sturles: I use normal rules for relaying transactions.
sturles: No, the order must be strict. I.e. the the parent must be confirmed _before_ the sibling.
sturles: Yes, and I don't think this is much more complex than requiring each utxo to be in a different block than the one it is spent from.
asciilifeform: now i am tempted to say to client, when he asks for theta, 'it isn't that complex'
asciilifeform: this is called a complexity vulnerability, and presently i search for these, elsewhere and far away, for a living.
asciilifeform: i killed this idiocy with my own hands.
sturles: I am not saying it is the right way to do it, just that it is how it is.
asciilifeform: i did this.
sturles: I should change my key in #bitcoin-otc to the sturle@bitmynt.no key..
asciilifeform: but this is really all ~i~ would have needed.
sturles: asciilifeform: Because it takes some time to do it for large mempools, I suppose. I think child fees are taken into account as well, but not sure about that.
mircea_popescu: i think i'll wait for the whole thing ?
mircea_popescu: i will have the harem hum your nick during sex for a week in recognition.
asciilifeform: if it is not clear, i am speaking not simply of systemd removal, but dbus et al.
asciilifeform: in unrelated nyooz, i happen to have carried out a successful experiment re: depoetteringization of a modern gentoo
mircea_popescu: i claim no ownership interest in the notion. it's so outrageous a tree somewhere in the forest prolly said somethingat some point.
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 16:34:37; sturles: By default Bitcoin Core will evict transactions which has been in the mempool for more than three days. A bad idea, because those will just come back from a node which had the transaction for less than three days, but since transactions paying a fee lower than the -minrelayfee threshold are throttled most low and 0-fee transactions will be kept out for most of the time. I'm sure there are an infinite amou
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 16:46:21; mircea_popescu: i mean i just said, i'd take 5k for cash right now.
asciilifeform: as soon as i get back into cockpit actually.
mircea_popescu: i mean i just said, i'd take 5k for cash right now. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i don't recall when this "3 day" thing got introduced, but longer than coupla years ago i think.

kakobrekla: according to some; http://i.imgur.com/BdJFEc1.png
sturles: OK. I don't know anything about the tx in question. How old were the inputs?
sturles: I don't have a time limit.
sturles: I don't keep them all. Only the ones with the highest priority.-
kakobrekla: >If you are proposing that you are actually running a node which keeps all 0-fee txn for a week plus, I very much would like to know what machine are you running, and when's the last time you realised what an incredible DoS mechanism this is.
kakobrekla: i asked him to join to answer the questions from qntra
kakobrekla: i find the comment from 'sturle' much more interesting.
asciilifeform: i can think of 1,001 variations on this theme.
kakobrekla: yes i have seen it, nothing i can do about it.
mircea_popescu: no but on second pass this is actually correct, isn't it. ~I~ have been breaking the protocol with that design, indiscutably.
asciilifeform: i was wondering about that ^
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:17:37; jurov: just for the record, there are several projects built on top of llvm (cling,clang,clasp) promising C++ interpretation and easy interop with lisp. i tried to build and use these, not one succeeded and they are so behemoth so any analysis of the problem was out of the question
jurov: re: duplicate bugreport.. perhaps i envied you being target of lizard hitler pranks, and imagined myself finally being targeted
asciilifeform: i recall,
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:07:13; jurov: asciilifeform: wake me up if you manage to compile chromium in 3G ram. the linker eats 10G. i have 12G here and must log out and terminate most processes and then emerge it.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420867 << it's a laptop, i don't care if it takes a week ☝︎
mircea_popescu: jurov dude you trolled me ? i mistook eul- to be a function defined in eulora space pinged DianaComan about it lmao
jurov: i came around this in course of embedding lisp in eulora client
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 08:53:24; ben_vulpes: and i don't want any more fucking scultors enough people already look at sera and say "oh herp derp i can make shapes with plate steel"
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420812 << cascadia coming to the mp notions of "What is art" i take it ? ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i'm just curious for my own culture here.
jurov: just for the record, there are several projects built on top of llvm (cling,clang,clasp) promising C++ interpretation and easy interop with lisp. i tried to build and use these, not one succeeded and they are so behemoth so any analysis of the problem was out of the question ☟︎
jurov: and i did not profile it, just looked on top output
mircea_popescu: "It drives dropout rates and is mostly useless in real life. Andrew Hacker has a plan for getting rid of it." dude, seriously ?! "stem myth" ? that place is so set for greatness. and i mean greatness literally.
jurov: asciilifeform: wake me up if you manage to compile chromium in 3G ram. the linker eats 10G. i have 12G here and must log out and terminate most processes and then emerge it. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: i think that's how warrants etc are going to go from now on. deedbot ftw.
asciilifeform: ^ for some reason i thought it was obvious that bitbet ~did~ win from publishing actual, live bet addrs

phf: speaking of ballet, i went to see Mariinsky Ballet company perform at jfk center, place was packed, tickets were sold out months in advance, cheapest of them >$100. the company comes to u.s. once a year, brings one production, performs for one week. they are masters of their craft, with rigorous, brutal training regime and a demanding director. and it shows! meanwhile "accessible" american ballet is by and large mediocre, using
phf: "I hope that mathematics departments can also create courses in the history and philosophy of their discipline, as well as its applications in early cultures. Why not mathematics in art and music — even poetry — along with its role in assorted sciences? The aim would be to treat mathematics as a liberal art, making it as accessible and welcoming as sculpture or ballet."
BingoBoingo: “It’s not the same,” I told him. “Reading fiction builds empathy.”
BingoBoingo: Mayo privilege is being able to travel to places your body doesn't fit https://i.imgur.com/E4B4rOh.jpg
phf: ftr i've worked with female programmers, on average not better or worse then males, who would've thought. i've also briefly worked with "women in javascript" and they are predominantly wreckers
jurov has after maybe a week of full lisp immersion managed to write a function that crashes eclisp cold. details withheld till i reproduce on another machine
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> why - i do not know. <<it's the human love of variety. ends up making contrived shit seem appealing, especially to women (and castrated men, such as intellectuals and bureaucrats - which, by the way, are about the same thing)
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> (for n00bz who think 'it is impossible to be sacked from usg' - it is actually very easy. one merely has to be employed as a contractor, of whom there is a dozen or two for every actual 'civil servant', and then you can be fired any hour.) << Or appointee (i.e. patronage position)
asciilifeform: phf: i actually have met americans who read, e.g., 'overcoat.' in transl.
asciilifeform: why - i do not know.
phf: i'm pretty sure gogol made a few jabs at this particular feature of bureaucrat caste
phf: i know a lot of career bureaucrats through my parents, and most of them tend to be very proud of chance associations, mentions, friendships, etc. "of note"
asciilifeform: i heard that when he died, the very few folks whose employment survived his retirement, were finally sacked.
asciilifeform: that i even learned that plum book existed.
asciilifeform: it was actually from.. i'll call him dr. plumbook,
assbot: Logged on 26-02-2016 18:42:55; asciilifeform: '‘Ach, sir, it iss worse when they become refractory! One man, I recall, clung to the bars of hiss cage when we went to take him out. You will scarcely credit, sir, that it took six warders to dislodge him, three pulling at each leg. We reasoned with him. “My dear fellow,” we said, “think of all the pain and trouble you are causing to us!” But no, he would not listen! Ach, he wass very troub
BingoBoingo: ;;google How do I keep the squirrels in my yard away from my bird feeders
asciilifeform: btw am i the only one who thinks of lumumba when hearing ubuntu ?
asciilifeform: l0l, reading the src, apparently I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING="true" cures...
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-02-2016#1418508 << lol if i knew i wouldn't be asking ☝︎
punkman: pete_dushenski: the chiron is basically as close as one can come to riding in the atomic dirigible of land travel. << I'd take a UNICAT over the bugatti
shinohai: Seinfeld plays happily in the background as i do trb work.
mircea_popescu: i guess there's that.
assbot: Logged on 02-03-2016 17:21:53; mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i've been thinking about it, but i don't think this is actually resolvable. as it happens - the "magically working network - we don't know how it works" thing is much more appealing to the average joe than you know, "this is my node. i will defend it with my life". what life, are you kidding, got sitcoms to watch and shit.
shinohai: I forgot about the heathen bc,info allowing that pete_dushenski. Unfortunately too late now, my client went elsewhere and I do not have my coveted BTC today.
trinque: I will need at least a sendrawtxn command soon lest I go mad with deedbot-, will most likely take a crack at it soon
trinque: I used funkenstein's, worked but the wallet's still unusable
trinque: pete_dushenski: I think it was herr funkenstein
shinohai: No I was using the pywallet method I have used before. Today it just decided it didn't like it.
shinohai: I didn't even get to the rescan part, just db error :/
shinohai: I have a UPS that runs node. My problem occured today when I attempted to import a private key into wallet.dat
trinque: that's exactly what I said
shinohai: I'm up to 2 nodes, but one is remote so isn't feasible to sync that way at this time I guess. Hopefully project budget allows for an extra dedi box this year sometimes.
asciilifeform: i have 3-4 trb nodez going, just on house lan, at all times, so backup sorta solves itself.
shinohai: This time I am backing up the entire .bitcoin folder, space be damned
asciilifeform: shinohai: i think it is interesting that i've been kill -9 'ing trb since day 1 and never had this problem.
