a large share (half?) of the transaction will get evicted and
a minimum fee ratio to get included will be set.
mircea_popescu: sturles that's kind-of
a problem then, you can't voice here.
mircea_popescu: so rather than
a preliminary it's actually the thing ?
mircea_popescu: i will have the harem hum your nick during sex for
a week in recognition.
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.
mircea_popescu: somehow, the fact that any system trying to "include everyone" necessarily excludes the best and brightest is never
a concern.
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

a ring buffer

☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: anyway, if you're curious, what trb is contemplating to eventually do is
a ring buffer with
a per-kb fee only as the criteria.

☟︎ sturles: There was
a spam attack, which stopped.
kakobrekla: anyway, sturles is giving us his current mempoolminpriority, which doesnt mean it was the same
a week ago.
mircea_popescu: if you recall kakobrekla at the time it was merely broadcast and "not yet included" (in the public version of the blockchain), it had
a very low priority.
mircea_popescu: sturles if you keep 0fee txn without time limit, you are necessarily running on
a machine with infinite ram.
sturles: It doesn't matter if A2 has higher or lower priority than A1. As long as A1 is in my mempool,
a tx spending any of A1's inputs will be rejected.
sturles: I don't have
a time limit.
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.
mircea_popescu: no argument that it ~could~ be
a so and so node. all sorts of things could be all sorts of other things. like the moon landing photos could be fake, and so on.
mircea_popescu: of course large payments remain
a problem - not so many double digit btc moving around to an address with the following 4 chars.
mircea_popescu: and yes, publish
a sha of the whole list as-is somewhere on page also. so people can then verify at tyhe end.
mircea_popescu: romanian school has
a whole curricula in literature dedicated to making the kiddies cry. this is well and good and the ~only way.
mircea_popescu: jurov dude you trolled me ? i mistook eul- to be
a function defined in eulora space pinged DianaComan about it lmao
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 07:07:25; BingoBoingo: It also spots
a lot of failures enrolled in class
mircea_popescu: "you can have your own opinions, but we want to move from this situation where harvard & mit lied to you about you being smart enough to resolve any real word conondrum 'if you just got the facts [as officially branded facts by harvard and mit]'" to
a much more economical "you can have your own opinions just as long as they're what we say they should be".
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 06:50:55; phf: well, that was
a rabbit hole of progressive insanity
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: so, it's there for
a reason.
jurov: even then, the trashing would make the machine unusable for
a ~hour
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
BingoBoingo: It also spots

☟︎ BingoBoingo: mathematics in music is called musical theory and already
a class sequence
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."
phf: well, that was
a rabbit hole of progressive insanity
☟︎ phf: friend of mine coined
a term "tech dykes" years before it became
a thing. bossy mostly lesbian girls who are good at pushing nerdy boys around, so work as program leads and agile consultants. but that was before there was
a strong political component
mircea_popescu: phf usually "women in gaming" is
a supercharged "women in javascript" thing. very politically driven drivel.
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
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)
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"
phf: do you know what hurree babu really wants? he wants to be made
a member of the royal society by taking ethnological notes.
