gabriel_laddel: BingoBoingo: I don't think you have context here
pete_dushenski: though i have to say, asciilifeform, for a starved man, you think mighty clearly. ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 02:24:59; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1266831 << i don't know the fella personally, but as i gather his main problem is starvation. it makes people foolish, i speak from experience
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> Incidentally, improving the browser interface is what I plan on using to punish interns / employees who create DSLs, configuration file formats, non-reader macro syntax extensions... << How is "improving:" and not "killing" the word here
gabriel_laddel: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=07-09-2015#1265781 << I lol'd ☝︎

gabriel_laddel: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=07-09-2015#1265774 << I hack it using the parenscript REPL you can find in the Masamune repository. Mozrepl (the basis) provides some very rudimentary debugging facities that tbh, I almost never use due to a burning hatred of js and no reason to ever sharpen that edge of the blade. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: mats that's nice to have. i always puzzled over the incredibly poor security of mobile as a design decision ☟︎
ben_vulpes: wild swans, i mean.
ben_vulpes: "struggle session" << anyone have any decent literature? the only thing i can recall offhand is the book White Swans.
asciilifeform: i will add that it is not actually easy to write a useful computeralgebratron.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> so today i cut open the winblowz version of 'derive', v.6. it has mulisp buried in there!! a 32-bit version thereof. hand-coded in asm, at least partly. << I my cursory seach Texas Instruments apparently "owns" derive
asciilifeform: so today i cut open the winblowz version of 'derive', v.6. it has mulisp buried in there!! a 32-bit version thereof. hand-coded in asm, at least partly.
mircea_popescu: not that the general problem of "i will now emit a string of bits and you tell me if this is a function" isn't a very interesting ai topic.
asciilifeform: mats: nope. so i jump to somewhere that has the prologue. solved.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if i had to guess, would say that it checks for a standard prologue before jumping to the return addr found on stack
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I though you manced the necros? Isn't that what dark ELF's do?
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo, am i mistaken ? << $500 in US could buy quality eating pistol
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 01:08:18; BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> hah i spent the equiv of his savings on Eulora stuff alone << Exchange rate adjusted I have spent more drinking at 2nd Mardi gras
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1266887 << i managed to lose one of a set of historical bitcoin cufflinks last week. they cost more than his budget back before they became historical. ☝︎
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo, am i mistaken ?
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 01:04:57; pete_dushenski: "I thought the support BitcoinXT had was way bigger because of so many people praising it on /r/Bitcoin. I wanted to help scale bitcoin so I spent about $200 to set up 10 BitcoinXT nodes for a month."
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 00:41:21; pete_dushenski: it's not like i expect him to go anywhere a la pankkake, tat, or decimation, but i don't trust him.

asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i confess that i imagine you living in a proper old west town, with saloon, with spittoon
BingoBoingo: I thought it was known ascii only read by the crate
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i don't know of any reason to think that esr regrets turning; he probably regrets not taking sufficiently many 'pieces of silver'
BingoBoingo: ks yo << And people were wondering why I wouldn't just plea out and pay a fine
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> “under federal law, a judge is technically allowed to sentence a defendant based on conduct that was uncharged, [or]charged and dismissed, or even charged and acquitted. That’s because the standard of proof at trial is beyond a reasonable doubt while the standard of proof at sentencing is by a preponderance, i.e. more likely than not. […] The government can dismiss charges if it wishes, but if the court thin
assbot: Logged on 30-01-2015 05:51:36; mircea_popescu: which is why i am not ever giving it up. the freedom to threaten is not merely my fundamental, unassailable sovereign property, but moreover essential for the construction of effectual instruments to squash the socialists and their golums. ☟︎

mircea_popescu: and i mean that in the most literal sense. i doubt even the computers bother reading their code.
asciilifeform: i suppose if these count, then we can also count mazdakism in persia
mircea_popescu: "i'm only worthless because X" is of no practical importance.
mircea_popescu: i'll consider such arguments once you can take the 3yo product of white woman, put it in cage with 3yo product of thirld world woman, and it emerges victorious. every time.
mircea_popescu: i guess the gig is ip
mats: that some folks suggest the substance of any of my debates begin with 'so explain why i shouldn't windows' indicates they've no idea whats actually being discussed
mats: i'm a researcher. not a defender offering his opinion on how to defend a winbox.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> those are least concern tho << I'm not sure least concern. Lesser concern, yes. Probably by attack frequency not least.
mats: i have never ventured the opinion these mitigations actually defend against MS, INTC, USG, etc...
mats: not because i'm trying to convince anyone to use it, but maybe, zoological purposes ☟︎
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: and i'm none too amused by 'oh no she didn't' 'oh yes she did' banter either
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1266855 << not particularly. but the disagreement should be productive, not 'please explain why i shouldn't use winbloze' level ☝︎
ben_vulpes: anyways, pete_dushenski, i'd love to talk some day when you've got something other than "lol ur handle bro" lined up
gribble: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Coons+Age | Jonny, I haven't see you in a coon's age, How the hell are you? by Tbone ... I've been waiting a Coon's Age for you to get your sorry keister out of the bathroom!
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> ben_vulpes: i just saw 'benkay' logged in and was inquiring, as i hadn't seen that handle in a coon's age. << Coon vernacular for that period of time is "a minute" now
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: i just saw 'benkay' logged in and was inquiring, as i hadn't seen that handle in a coon's age.
mats: in the service of that note, i can't say i particularly care about a guy whose chief 'contribution' is blathering at length on a blog
shinohai: Euora I would consider a good investment, and will when I buy my next computer
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: the "experiment", i mean.
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron: I hope you are at least reading EVE-Online history
danielpbarron: not sure if shinohai's comment is directed at Eulora, but it's 1) not fleeting and 2) i still have the stuff i bought
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: what, did the nick disconnect while i wasn't looking?
BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> hah i spent the equiv of his savings on Eulora stuff alone << Exchange rate adjusted I have spent more drinking at 2nd Mardi gras ☟︎
shinohai: I spent most of my BTC on stuff I *still use*
danielpbarron: i win all the auctions -- doesn't mean i'm profiting :/
danielpbarron: hah i spent the equiv of his savings on Eulora stuff alone
pete_dushenski: "The $200 I spent was almost 1/3 of my bitcoin savings and I regret wasting my money on this. Maybe I will keep running BitcoinXT at home but I haven't decided."
pete_dushenski: "I thought the support BitcoinXT had was way bigger because of so many people praising it on /r/Bitcoin. I wanted to help scale bitcoin so I spent about $200 to set up 10 BitcoinXT nodes for a month." ☟︎
benkay: i retain hope mine'll be +ev. like my wife. unlike anyone elses.
benkay: additionally, i do not see substantiation of the drama claims.
BingoBoingo learned more in fewer spans than those in which asciilifeform and mats have discursively danced. I really clear up what the traditional common wisdom has been.
BingoBoingo: I think mats is getting polish. He claims a knowledge base which explains a lotta cognitive dissonance that appears on subjects like ASLR (For the record I use an OS with ASLR by default)
cazalla: i like how the text "no thanks" and "yes" are smaller than big blue buttons that work in their favour
cazalla: logged into the qntra twitter account.. http://i.imgur.com/lBu5pin.png and then! http://i.imgur.com/lrMj3py.png
pete_dushenski: it's not like i expect him to go anywhere a la pankkake, tat, or decimation, but i don't trust him. ☟︎
pete_dushenski: i get the sense that it's more than sarcasm coming from mats and i dun take kindly to it.
pete_dushenski: i've been trying to put my finger on this mats guy for a while, ever since the decimation episode, and i think i've distilled it. without further ado :
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: I'm not watching it, just bet. Watching "To Catch a Contractor" instead
shinohai: I don't even need a microscope. Naked eye working fine thus far.
trinque: I'm plainly accusing Hearn of not being above putting something malicious in a binary, aside from the gunk they're putting in the source.
shinohai: I meant the precompiled binary they threw up on reddit midnightmagic
midnightmagic: I think they do sign them: https://github.com/bitcoinxt/gitian.sigs
trinque: I mean, the XT scumbags can lie about how many are in-field
shinohai: I know, more sour grapes from that camp :D
danielpbarron: shinohai, the key is that the chicks had already been with other dudes who they then should have married. To be honest, I'm not sure if it counts as adultery or not.
danielpbarron: mircea_popescu> wow, picking up blondies at porcfest works that well, huh. << hah. I was referring to my past when I didn't yet believe in The Bible
ben_vulpes: do you think that i hate danielpbarron?
ben_vulpes: mats: why do you think i hate you?
Apocalyptic: mircea_popescu, wise words, indeed I should have
BingoBoingo has a few million satoshis on Venus to beat Serena. It's been a while, so might as well try this again to remind myself why I stopped.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller gotta love it whgen you try to explain a few points to a redditard and he comes back with pure "i don't want to think!!!" on a stick.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i guess i must have.
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-09-2015#1266708 << i don't know for a fact that s. is alive ☝︎
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-09-2015#1266659 << lol didja miss the part where i said it is a shannonized output ? ☝︎
ben_vulpes: i forgot this the other day.
cazalla: i thought it was only adultery if you are married
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=08-09-2015#1266539 << i can see it. ☝︎
TheNewDeal: I'm just going to ride it out, right now I'm getting paid out of the bet ends No
assbot: Logged on 08-09-2015 17:19:43; Apocalyptic: I will proceed to verify the sig
mircea_popescu: TheNewDeal i actually like it > 1 btc.
TheNewDeal: gotta be jewish though, I've already taken the other side
assbot: Logged on 08-09-2015 16:47:09; ascii_field: mircea_popescu et al: i have been searching, in vain, for a means to contact stoutemyer. seems like he's gone full-bore knuth and has no published means of contact at all...
TheNewDeal: i'll pay you .146 for that whole position of 1 BTC @ 65k
mircea_popescu: but i lulzed at the "open source decentralized" derp's butthurt.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo yeah but i mean... that's kinda like the house too old for plumbing.
TheNewDeal: I may be interested in making offers
TheNewDeal: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=24-08-2015#1250716 I saw this off much too late. I'm typically trying to partially sell out my own positions in profitable/risky bets that I have made ☝︎
funkenstein_: er, I spoke in error
funkenstein_: well starfaring peoples might have different motivations and abilities, but I probably shouldn't speculate
