assbot: Logged on 19-11-2015 20:05:06; phf: it's just impressions. i've been looking at a lot of high traction common lisp code (top quicklisp packages) and there's a lot of senseless turd polishing in the past few years. broken interfaces for the sake of "cleanliness", half baked code, needless macros, dependency hell etc. and then you look at the code and it's the same set of aggressive, google employed queergenders.
phf: <asciilifeform> 'Well, as far as I could tell circa 2009, this programmer took my code and disabled 95%<<< this is becoming more and more sop, sometimes outright theft but more typically a "new maintainer", also http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=19-11-2015#1327527 ☝︎

asciilifeform: '...a Common Lisp package and libraries called MockMMA. see the directory for a recent revision of this Mockmma. This version is more directed to being compatible with the source-forge program Maxima, even if Maxima is being run in GCL, a Lisp dialect lacking in full upper-lower case control. (This is a disadvantage because Mathematica uses many mixed-case identifiers). To the user, this somewhat resembles Mathematica (tm), bu

mircea_popescu: anyway, much to my contradicted disbelief, the consensus among unconnected, aparatchick chicks on okc seems to be that "well, a) trump will win and b) that'll be tghe end of any federal government"
asciilifeform: after he tires of moving imaginary, long-dead armies around on a little map
mircea_popescu: "He said hostility toward federal employees is taking a toll on the entire community." ahahahaha orly. is it.
mircea_popescu: the gist of it is that guy wants a copy of a certain txn
asciilifeform: a non-listening node
asciilifeform: well it will really suck with a 8-max and outgoing-only turdnode.

punkman: CVE-2012-2459 isn't though, maybe a good thing to fix next trb release
mircea_ahoy: they're in the mempool waiting to be included in a block.
mircea_ahoy: but more generally, a txn can't time out for as long as it's being rebroadcast.
mircea_ahoy: even if in fact it were 0 fee, with that cointime mass it shouldn't take hours, let alone a whole day.

mircea_ahoy: the biullshit they hide behind. no, my mother wouldn't have been protecting your delusional "right" to be colossaly stupid at the expense of a poor unfortunate horse that has no fault.
mircea_ahoy: fuck that shit ? what's the horse, a rock ? if you prick it, it does not bleed ?
mircea_ahoy: Things your mom would have your rear end for saying, things that though you’re no expert you feel that you are clearly the most intelligent on the forum and have to interject.

punkman: "Use a professional e-mail address. “luvbunnie69@hotmail.com” or “buzzlightyear2infinitynbeyond@yahoomail.co.uk” just doesn’t cut the mustard." << meh, I really wouldn't care about that. having your own domain instead of gmail is a nice touch though.
