ben_vulpes: http://www.northofreality.com/secrets/ << bit of a shame that aramcheck's not in the wot and on patreon, i like his weirdfic. ☟︎
gribble: nubbins` was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 6 weeks, 2 days, 14 hours, 48 minutes, and 35 seconds ago: <nubbins`> <+mircea_popescu> in other news, chick on okcupid : "porque no me escribis en castellano << they say castellano in peru too, but if i'm not mistaken this is not universal in south america?
pete_dushenski: g on cyber-security panels in davos. now i get it.
pete_dushenski: "Then in Davos I joined people like Kevin Spacey, and Jimmy Wales (the founder of Wikipedia) on a panel talking about cyber-security. The general sense in the room is that a distributed, encrypted database like the blockchain could be key to creating a more secure computing environment and a more secure world." << now i get why reporters call ~me~ a "security expert", because motherfucking 60yo actors are sittin
mircea_popescu: i dun see anyone getting negrated through communicating sanely.
asciilifeform: i know of only 2, actually.
asciilifeform: every so often, i go on a binge of installing gaskets, costly german fans, etc. but the result is always the same:
pete_dushenski: aha. you ~wished~ it were silent. i misunderstood. i thought you had it nailed already.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1390743 << i ain't keeping locally anything that won't push ~5000x5000 pixels ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-01-2016#1390735 << i have a very similar board here, a 'tyan' ☝︎
mod6: i apprecaite your efforts here.
BingoBoingo: "The fun doesn't stop at just watching the Puppy Bowl, though. Like in all sports now, fantasy Puppy Bowl is huge, and you can go to Animal Planet's website to draft your fantasy Puppy Bowl squad. You pick three dogs to go up against your friends. There's a scorecard and everything. I went on and drafted my team, and I think I have a strong chance to come out on top in Puppy Bowl fantasy. I mean, just look at this lineup. Bijoux,
mircea_popescu: i have no idea why anyone'd keep locally a box they don't actually use to play games on, but hey.
mircea_popescu: i'd definitely add him to the top of the list of providers for colocation.
assbot: Alright, I give up. on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1Pq7t68 )
mircea_popescu: copypaste http://trilema.com/2016/alright-i-give-up/
asciilifeform: i'ma try & figure out why the version set thing doesn't go
mod6: maybe i'll try to debug it a bit, see if i can get it to work.
mod6: since this one is new, and its not in a release, its not horrible. i'd prefer just to fix whatever might be wrong in there and resubmit & regrind high/low
mod6: <+asciilifeform> i'd much prefer antimatter << this imho sets kindof an nasty precedent: just adding anitmatter patches, bloat for the tree. a hundred years from now there might be more anti-matter than matter patches!
asciilifeform: i'd much prefer antimatter
mod6: and i'll also have to "re-grind" my high/low S patch
mod6: <+pete_dushenski> ver 99999 is fine by me << yeah, this is fine. but the fact that it doesn't do what it should do isn't. i'll pull the patch tomorrow.
mircea_popescu: i dunno exactly why it was decided to have it in, but now it's in, so...
asciilifeform: would love to, but so far i do not understand why the setting mechanism does not work.
asciilifeform: mod6: i officially pronounce the verstring patch to be buggy and unfit for inclusion in its present state
mircea_popescu: i think that's undefined, in the general. in the narrow particular, iirc blackwater charges something like 1.2-1.5. depends on various factors, but thereabouts.
mircea_popescu: per-capita* i mean
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski mod6 i never used server thing myself.
mircea_popescu: <pete_dushenski> mircea_popescu: it's sorta incredible that the fiatists who need infinite growth all want to cut their own throats with reduced consumption while tmsr~, who doesn't want anything to do with infinite growth, is buying and consuming like it's going out of style << actually, best estimate i can get puts TMSR GDP growth for 2015 somewhere around 450-500%. that's not 4.5-5%. it's not 45-50% either. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: assbot> Networking Equipment Designated Weapon System | << speaking of which, i fully expect the first usg-designed bitcoin miners to be designated exactly that.
mod6: yeah, i'm curious here.
pete_dushenski: mod6: in other news, i can't seem to get -setvernum to work either? or how can I tell that it worked? << hm. has anyone actually used 'version-strings' in praxis ? seems like several failed attempts now.
phf: i have that patched gpgme version though, can always punt into the ugly land. i'm going to tackle diff first though, seems like a significant hole in my algo knowledge
phf: i'm curious if there's enough machinery in ironclad to give me support to do a pgp verify rewrite
mod6: phf: ahh, very cool though. as im sitting here reading sicp im thinking that maybe how i can learn scheme is by writing V in it -- at some point.
phf: mod6: sorry, this is entirely a non issue, i'm debugging a pure lisp presser, i.e. parsing vpatch files and then doing in memory press. everything presses, but that one file has an extra newline
mod6: i should look into this
phf: i somehow have an extra newline there :o
mod6: i think that is correct
phf: there is? :o i did shasum -a 512 -c foo.txt|grep -v OK where foo.txt is your dpaste and only headers is not giving me ok.
mod6: in other news, i can't seem to get -setvernum to work either? or how can I tell that it worked?
pete_dushenski: but i... apparently am
pete_dushenski: damn. and here i was thinking i was fucking zheng he.
pete_dushenski: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dhjwWhlk5Q << left by a contravex commenter. i lollered. (for those who watch videos only)
trinque-out: deedbot will be back later this evening. The DC neglected to turn the thing back on after SSD installation and I had to depart the keyboard. Meanwhile just send me anything that needs to go through and it'll happen tonight.
BingoBoingo: ascii_rear: I'm thinking more the sheets used for the grilltops at McDonalds.
ascii_rear: if BingoBoingo is thinking of the teflon tape used in plumbing, i can hardly imagine a worse punched ribbon
ascii_rear: realize that i have a vast collection of crud
mircea_popescu: i know it's exciting and all. but, pace in all things.
ascii_rear: i got plenty
ascii_rear: next thing i will do, supposing that nobody else takes it up, is to make the mempool shiva-walkable
BingoBoingo: ascii_rear: I see nothing that preculdes guerilla cd operation from being done in reasonably clean warehouse for 1 or 2 new chevy suburbans worth of captial outlay.
ascii_rear: it will rock especially hard when i get the emacsatron in (see slime thread)
ascii_rear: mircea_popescu: aha, that was why i did it originally
shinohai: yeah it seems when I was doing lappy setup I changed something.
mod6: <+shinohai> ok mod6 test completed, did not have to set set the perl option before building << ok good deal, i assume that the PERL_MM_OPT thing is an evironment deal.
ascii_rear: i have 25 y.o. cds that read without any problems
mod6: i went down this road probably like in december or november or something. just was its own ball of wax.
mod6: oh for like the makefiles and stuff? i think we were just gonna put the stuff in the shit dir iirc.
ascii_rear: i was thinking of buildroot
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 01:18:57; mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-01-2016#1390077 << this is a bad idea inasmuch as it leaves my build process stranded, so i'll be stuck forever using current v and i suppose forever pressing 9996 then ?
ascii_rear: aha, as i said, it is the smallest known
mod6: anyway, yeah, i feel like if we bring this thing into the fold, i aught to know what the back end is doing.
mod6: i think i wanna try to work from tinyscheme/shiva -> C++ interface with bitcoind -- seems a more sane way to figure this thing out.
mod6: im gonna keep reading scim see what i can figure out.
ascii_rear: otherwise i would have used classical minischeme.
ascii_rear: that has programmable i/o ports and arrays
mod6: was I dreaming?
mod6: oh, ok. was that ever repaired? or isn't updated? i thought I saw the guys comment on his website that said "until i'm dead" or something?
mod6: i gotta digest all of this a bit. heheh.
mod6: i guess that was all in scheme.h
mod6: i did dig through all of the src/shiva code too - but since im not super cluded on scheme yet, dont quite know everything thats going on there.
gernika: np. one of these days I'm gonna find a bug or somethin :)
mod6: i need to update my wot one of these days.
mircea_popescu: it really should have a name, apparerntly i saved it variously as press.sh vconfig.sh etc
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i'm using trinque's experimental makefiles.
mircea_popescu: fuck i don't even know what anything's called.
ben_vulpes: ;;later tell trinque i may be exceptionally retarded today, but is there a reason why shit/Manifest.sha256 doesn't contain a hash for buildroot?
ben_vulpes: i'm just fumbling in the dark
ben_vulpes: i'm struggling to build a cohesive mental model for the right way to approach this gordian knot
mod6: i think his 'p' or whatever the name is, is going to do away with that -- least iirc.
mircea_popescu: not like if trb.buildroot pops up tomorrow i wouldn't at least consider it.
mod6: i guess that may not be horribru. ask users to gather up pub keys, place in a separate dir other than .wot, import them into temp keyring, use them, and then remove the temp keyring when finished.
mircea_popescu: i honestly dun see what the problem is here. what is the problem here ?
mod6: i might regret the notion of using wget someday, but I figured it possibly better than writing some native code in perl that would most likely utilize some module, or even importation of the module directly.
mircea_popescu: well i am unaware of this "cd based security paradigm" as anything other than a chewing-gum and ductape concoction of no practical consequence.
assbot: Logged on 30-01-2016 18:36:47; mod6: ok, well i did just rip out all the sync/init/mirrors parts of V
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-01-2016#1390077 << this is a bad idea inasmuch as it leaves my build process stranded, so i'll be stuck forever using current v and i suppose forever pressing 9996 then ? << yeah, i read your comments earlier on this. part of "battle-ready" to me means not only that it has lordship blessing, but it doesn't break any security paradigms that we m ☝︎
shinohai: That script is like cliff notes, I couldn't live without yet.
mircea_popescu: i suppose this qualifies as advanced use tho
mod6: i actually think if you follow the steps in the wiki, jurov is incorrect, you don't need to know anything about V. or download it seperately, or anything. the script does it all for you.
assbot: Logged on 31-01-2016 00:27:16; jurov: looks like i got stymied right at very first step
mircea_popescu: then i can exclude his key and pretend he never lived.
assbot: Logged on 30-01-2016 18:43:48; mod6: i'd like to get this into "battle-ready" shape once and for all.
assbot: Logged on 30-01-2016 18:36:47; mod6: ok, well i did just rip out all the sync/init/mirrors parts of V
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-01-2016#1390077 << this is a bad idea inasmuch as it leaves my build process stranded, so i'll be stuck forever using current v and i suppose forever pressing 9996 then ? ☝︎☟︎
mod6: <+danielpbarron> what needs to be changed? just the url to the .sh ? or are some of the steps different now? << yeah, i think the steps are going to be fine, other than the URL to the new script (when we finally get it deedbotted) and the name of the script.
ben_vulpes: deedbot.org script mentioned above i believe uses asciilifeform's old key
jurov: yes it's on foundation homepage, i was blind
