pete_dushenski: for
a '-connect' private node ? probably, but every single '-addnode' public node, save asciilifeform's majick baltic node, seems to variously lag before restarting, at least as far as i can follow from bitnodes.io
assbot: You rated user PeterL on 14-Oct-2014, with
a rating of -2, and supplied these additional notes: He made fetchbot, the bot that can't stay up..
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 13:29:59; asciilifeform: in other news, zoolag was blackholed for
a record-breaking 8 hours.

mircea_popescu: we so far fired
a single bullet out of
a gun we don't even know who the fuck made. seems
a lot of unwarranted cockyness all around for this little knowledge.
mircea_popescu: topynate quite. consider, just for the sake of conversation, the situation of
a child who rfound his father's musket.
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 20:24:49; danielpbarron: let me see if i can make one of those funny metaphores out of this: "that's like
a cock that can get you pregnant, but you can't have sex with it"
topynate: if it really is
a universal constant, then there are
a lot of wasted words on the block size limit, including my own - anyone trying to abrogate it will just fall flat on his face
mircea_popescu: moreover, whether it does or might isn't the point. the point is, can you prove it doesn't have such nature ? because unless you can, speaking of it as
a quota is iffy.
mircea_popescu: topynate well, consider that we can alter the value of h by altering the units of measurement. suppose all alteration of the 1mb block limit reduces to similarly
a mere change in the units of measurement.
topynate: that would be remarkable; i can see the 1mb size being such
a strong convention that no-one would have any expectation of successfully altering it, but unsure how it could have
a universal nature like that of h
mircea_popescu: in this sense the argument can be brought that while the early block limit as implemented by miners (using 60% of the 1mb blocks) WAS
a quota, the actual 1mb block size is not
a quota at all,
topynate: yes. so long as it's
a convention with teeth. e.g. opec's oil production quota used to be
a real quota because enforcible, now it isn't
mircea_popescu: but it does meet your definition. "
a binding limit on how much of something is made". it is binding, it is
a limit, and it is on how much ofsomething can be made.
topynate: ah. no, i don't think you can stretch it that far. that would be like saying the total quantity of oil in the ground was
a quota on oil production.
topynate:
a binding limit on how much of something is made

punkman: reading
A->B->B(fixed) or
A->B->B(regrind) is still 3 patches each
assbot: Searching pgp.mit.edu for key with fingerprint: 112F353F5A3EEEBE3B0E824A36F13568F209C5B0. This may take
a few moments.
thestringpuller: regrind is alt-version of patch, why can't it be applied linearly? (or at least force such
a workflow)
mircea_popescu: regrind, to be perfectly clear, is the act of making
a tree out of patches instead of keeping them linear. this is
a known efficiency-of-search trope, and i shouldn't have to explain how distributing the patches out saves work when i'm pressing 3 years later and want to read the whole string of patches from genesis.
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 18:05:25; ascii_butugychag: and i officially consider regrinds
a thing to be avoided if at all physically possible
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 18:04:14; PeterL: if you have patches
a->b->c and you decide to get rid of b, you should end up with
a->b->c->(-b), not with
a->c' (where c' is reground c without b patch) , do I understand correct?
mircea_popescu: "Also, I heard that people are more willing to help animals than other people. Thus the donations to
a pet rescue fund can be seen as the upper estimate of how donation to the webpage capture project would perform."
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: And Qntra/trilema have been down for
a week plus at
a time when overloaded.
punkman: archive.is is returning
a loading gif here, anyone else?
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 17:50:30; ascii_butugychag: demanding that world move and rearrange itself because somebody wants to reuse
a name, is lunacy.
mod6: trinque: hmm. yah, i had to like use that tool, do
a rescan and
a restart, and then it was in there. but yea, that back port, if sane, would be best.
trinque: mod6: I did
a rescan but don't see my key as part of the default "account". I'll fiddle with the wallet.dat
a bit more, then take
a look at backporting that importprivkey
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 17:44:29; ascii_butugychag: existing pgptrons do not, afaik, allow you to specify
a custom timestamp
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo best slutwear thing in buenos aires, by
a large margin.
mircea_popescu: it's inconceivable without seeing it. like 20 sq feet affair that was maybe five foot tall, you had to go in two fucking steps. and then the actual shop, down
a steep flight of stairs, another 30 sqft or so i guess.
ascii_butugychag: i don't think i will ~ever~ recommend tinyscheme on
a box which carries live-fire coin.
BingoBoingo: To be fair, it may not need whole radiation suit,
a glove box may be fine.
ascii_butugychag: esp. once it is actually
a debugger and not simply
a lame proof of concept as now
ascii_butugychag: but even then,
a debugger that listens on tcp is
a dangerous thing to have around
danielpbarron: speaking of obese, from BingoBoingo's linked article >> But for what it's worth, you yourself aren't coming out smelling like
a rose here -- and not because of your actions in this story, but because of your commentary on it: You have
a pretty gross attitude toward overweight people. << haha found the fatty! (TM)
ascii_butugychag: so right now
a shiva session is really
a very 'obese' rpc call
ascii_butugychag: which - when we actually get shiva hooks that ~modify~ as well as read - does have
a global lock
phf: if i have
a gpgme key instance, is there some way to patch its trust level?
assbot: I was fired after
a stranger sent photos of my private text messages to my employer — Ask
a Manager ... (

BingoBoingo: Of all the #b-
a projects, deedbot's probably up there for frustration induced
☟︎ BingoBoingo: felipelalli: Anyways it's
a better use of time doing things that can't be done on windows and making your friends want to leave the windows favella than just doing everything for them.
felipelalli: BingoBoingo, say about the Brazilian Bitcoin market is
a good thing? For example?
danielpbarron: thestringpuller, i got into it with
a fairly popular girly about "nice guys" and sexual dominance or something; turns out i think we were agreeing with eachother without realizing it
☟︎ danielpbarron: and since when is 'nerd'
a compliment? that's related to the fatty thing
danielpbarron: BingoBoingo, that thread man.. 40k impressions and like.. that one reply.
A whole sea of watchers, the highest level of involvement they can handle is "liking" something
felipelalli: the exe I generated with
a tool inside
a VM
danielpbarron: let me see if i can make one of those funny metaphores out of this: "that's like
a cock that can get you pregnant, but you can't have sex with it"
☟︎ jurov: felipelalli: i can see, but...user that doesn't know how to make
a signature or talk to gribble don't have anything to do in otc
mod6: kewl. i seem to recall having to do
a -rescan afterward but i could be wrong
trinque: going to poke it more in
a bit
trinque: speaking of which, thanks to the helping hand of the other republic nodes, deedbot.org is
a fully synced trb public node
mod6: oh thought you meant #b-
a jurov: phf this was tried several times but since the hash in the signature is done with
a date and whatnot,
phf: i was trying to see if could look up the corresponding vpatch by decoding the sig's hash, and then assoc into
a precomputed map of vpatch hashes. unfortunately openpgp concats the sig header to the payload, so can't precompute :/
PeterL: so in my example, if you add
a patch d, it could equally be added to (-b) or (c') ?
ascii_butugychag: and it is trivially possible to unwind to arbitrary point without creating
a cycle
ascii_butugychag: punkman: if
a patch creates
a cycle, it is ipso facto invalid.
ascii_butugychag: and i officially consider regrinds
a thing to be avoided if at all physically possible
☟︎ PeterL: if you have patches
a->b->c and you decide to get rid of b, you should end up with
a->b->c->(-b), not with
a->c' (where c' is reground c without b patch) , do I understand correct?
☟︎ mod6: in other news, ive got
a patch for V that's not only the fix for the post-press hash checking, but also for the problem when running the graphing tool with
a node that has no decendants. and
a couple of small cleanup things.
mod6: i dunno either now, that was
a giant pain in the ass.
ascii_butugychag is still not sure why it was necessary to discard the history and compress the old patch + its fix into
a new one
ascii_butugychag: what i am expecting to see in
a correct press is for the trees to be IDENTICAL
