asciilifeform: funnily enuff this is maybe the 5th or 6th trilema piece in a row that asciilifeform finished eating just prior to deedbot displaying

shinohai: (New ICO token)
shinohai: "A promise from the SCAM coin team: We won't sleep until SCAM coin has been successfully listed on at least one shitty exchange." <<< Truth in advertising now I guess.

mircea_popescu: saying "well i can't protect car from usage of idiots" is one thing, but having the gas and break pedals not ever interchange is the other thing.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-17#1771717 << this is a great win, i'm glad he stuck with it. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-01-17 15:30 asciilifeform: has apeloyee found a specific instance where it can be made to eggog ? or is this a hypothetical 'once less clueful people start changing things' observation ?
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-17#1771704 << quite evidently that. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it rather looks like the elaboratest trollcoin so far.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-17#1771642 << i don't see a problem with it necessarily, but it's not clear what may hide under rock #2. try and see i guess ? ☝︎

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-17#1771636 << i have nfi what a binace is and i see no problem with random numbers fiatists assign to bitcoin fluctuating ~randomly. ☝︎

deedbot: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2146 << Loper OS - Rodenticide with the Seiko DPU414 Tape Printer.
asciilifeform: ( and if anyone began to use it, would prolly end as same kind of catastrophe as e.g. ruby . )
asciilifeform: i read the linked manual in '08 and will admit that i did not find it very interesting. it is the same kind of dead end as dylan.
amberglint: no one else seems to know or care about it, judging by google's output
amberglint: he renamed it to Lunar, apparently
asciilifeform: ( why he did this ? i do not know )
asciilifeform: seemed to me, to be an infix lisp, sorta like 'dylan'
amberglint: asciilifeform: do you know what this language is? http://users.rcn.com/david-moon/MMD/MMD.lunar looks like Moon's own invention
a111: Logged on 2018-01-04 20:06 asciilifeform: in other 'news', it is apparently impossible to fit even ONE 4096-bit adder into an ice40-8k ( the largest in the series )
asciilifeform: unfortunately i do not have any way to make asic. as for fpga, none exist of the necessary size. ( see e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2018-01-04#1764242 ) ☝︎
asciilifeform: and weste's , too. it seems to contain many usable goodies for asicist.
a111: Logged on 2017-05-16 22:10 asciilifeform: unrelatedly, 'finite precision number systems and arithmetic' (kornerup & matula, cambridge press) is mega-b00k, the only one i've found on subj that is NOT a mere plagiarism of knuth, has useful algos for e.g. carry-free ops, hardwarizations
asciilifeform: i have a similar item , http://btcbase.org/log/2017-05-16#1657241 , it proved to be of very, very limited help for ffa , the constraint of the pc arch limits the use of fancy adders etc ☝︎
asciilifeform: the demo chapter seems to have a very, very detailed discussion of machine arithmetic.
amberglint: with the same Harris
asciilifeform: i do not like vhdl; and do not see the point of 'systemverilog' (vs classical); but these are my personal prefs
asciilifeform: unremarkable schoolbook; slightly better imho than hennessey's
amberglint: asciilifeform: have you read "Digital Design and Computer Architecture" by D. and S. Harris? I'm using it (in ru print translation) as my hardware handbook and I'm curious if you have any opinion on it
asciilifeform: aha. mircea_popescu also at one time was a maths man. ☟︎
asciilifeform: (possibly he had other temp name, i cannot now recall.)
a111: 2017-09-13 <apeloyee> would O(N^2) modular multiplication be too slow?
amberglint: yeah, I caught almost everyone ru-speaking in the logs though I didn't know about apeloyee
asciilifeform: phf also from ru; and iirc so is apeloyee; asciilifeform from old su but marooned in usa; mircea_popescu speaks (more than he is willing to admit, lol) ru; possibly other folx, tuned in but still lurking, also.
asciilifeform: it was made by phf , address all complaints to him!1!
amberglint: btcbase.org is the logotron of my choice
asciilifeform: amberglint: i assume you already know about the log ( btcbase.org/log & elsewhere ) then.
amberglint: I was reading the logs for a while, thought about joining you earlier but felt a bit intimidated to be honest
amberglint: asciilifeform: I can't remember how I found your www, I'm reading it since 2012 or so; I found trilema.com from one of your articles
shinohai wonders if he should rate ben_vulpes as "bollocksologist" due to his recent trap encounters .....
asciilifeform: amberglint: want to say a bit re where you came from, how you found asciilifeform's www, etc ?
amberglint: it's working, thank you
trinque: amberglint: try to self-voice in pm with deedbot now
