gernika: ascii_field I would probably need tribal piercings at a minimum to get a job at Whole Foods. Much like inmates in prison indicate their dedication to their trade with facial tattoos.
trinque: ascii_field: I don't expect for a moment that you could possibly fake "stupid" ☟︎
jurov: trinque i took an update of ancient j2ee app and clandestinely learned git, while on it. try such when flipping burgers.
ascii_field: gernika: for the record, i once tried to get 'blue collar' work, and failed. turned away, 'overqualified, you'll leave as soon as you can' ☟︎
gernika: Realized at one point I would never even be able to work for a place such as Whole Foods - even if I wanted to.
trinque: yeah, I've found plenty of fine work that way
ascii_field: but will note that i also expect to be boiled for soap.
ascii_field: and i can't be certain that he is wrong in the particular case
ascii_field: and yes, i fully expect mircea_popescu to proclaim that mr. unemployableprogrammer is office plankton and ought to be boiled for soap
kakobrekla: yeah i get it, was thinking of the other one.
kakobrekla: i think you forgot 'scooter'.
jurov: i won't dare to compute hourly rate from that, tho
jurov: i will be paid *if* i someday make sense of eulora spaghetti client ☟︎
jurov: funny i can't remember programmer being paid here?
jurov: i was there. if you make a good job, after some months someone will adopt you and pay better
ascii_field: 'As a final station, I'd like to describe what online freelancer markets look like for people like me. On freelancer.com and oDesk, you compete with hundreds of lowest-wage programmers from third world countries for exceedingly crappy "projects". It's an unmitigated race to the bottom. Even if I could land these jobs in an environment where the competition basically works for free, there is no way to make a living off ☟︎
jurov: as was the lulzcustom here... i am "husak's child" after czechoslovak president
jcpham: that's cute; i'm actually dumb don't mind me
jcpham: that's ok I just scripted it
punkman: "I'm also on fiverr.com now, a site where you can offer any service for $5 a pop. I offer things like mini websites, setting up cloud servers, and many other tech jobs. The reality is my expertise is barely even worth $5 in today's market, so I frequently take on multi-hour horror projects on fiverr just to make four bucks (they take $1 commission)" ☟︎

BingoBoingo: 100000 because the way I implemented the flag it is set in satoshis
shinohai: I just started syncing this one. Gonna take a minute :/
shinohai: Got 4 good connections: http://i.imgur.com/rRiupsq.png?1
shinohai: got 'em, and yeah i have only been syncing against mp's node ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 03-08-2015 09:02:58; cazalla: anyone know what is going on here? http://dpaste.com/2HMWH8Z.txt i get stuck at block 367896, tried copying over to another pc and same deal, hits block 367896 and shits itself and spews please update messages (which i even tried over the weekend for shits and giggles with their 0.11 bitcoin core client but it crashes with core dumps or some shit, can't even go from genesis to current block on a fresh insta
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-08-2015#1223002 << at this point i gotta ask, why are any of you still using the phoundation turd for anything ☝︎☟︎☟︎
shinohai: I'm sittin nearby with a getaway rollback xD
shinohai: Sorry, I just discovered deedbot doesnt like pms
shinohai: ;;later tell trinque am i doing something wrong, or is deedbot down?
shinohai: Someone needs to hack these things, and start a worldwide auto theft ring. https://i.imgur.com/TdxJqYE.webm
BingoBoingo: I thought maybe you'd spotted that mess in "Core"
shinohai: i dunno, something i saw browsing imgur
shinohai: Super nested functions, ftw: https://i.imgur.com/dIUV7UM.png
shinohai: nope, ig ot so pissed when i woke up this morning i rm 0rf'd everything and started over
shinohai: I give up, 0.11.0 is garbage
shinohai: https://i.imgur.com/wiFN8rH.jpg
cazalla: BingoBoingo, i tried that weekend before last but unable to get up it up and running yet
shinohai: I still have 0.5.4 running, nw
shinohai: BingoBoingo: v0.11.0 the latest. I have built twice, even tried the precompiled shit.
BingoBoingo: Ah I missed it
cazalla: BingoBoingo, i just linked that! but there is a better one https://i.imgur.com/QFetxTk.jpg
BingoBoingo: Ghostbusters arrived a bit early it seems http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--fixzXNha--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/1368261340029528421.jpg

BingoBoingo: I for one welcome shenanigans as our new overlord
Apocalyptic: "without any real reason" // I thought it was to boost export

pete_dushenski: though i admit that the difference between fact and fiction is exceedingly thin, particularly when discussing the american legal system.
assbot: Logged on 02-08-2015 18:19:34; mircea_popescu: in other news, https://i.imgur.com/TCjVzuQ.jpg
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=02-08-2015#1222291 << 'super troopers' (2001) is a mega-classic, or at least it was the last time i saw it. it's been a few years but i remember loving that movie. ☝︎
decimation: the longer I live, the more dubious I am of the initial assumption that 'enemy plays hand to his maximum advantage'
decimation: 01:12 <+asciilifeform> the sheer monumental stupidity of this floored me, and i am still half-convinced that it is disinfo somehow < at some point we are gonna run our own mining corp too :(
asciilifeform: the sheer monumental stupidity of this floored me, and i am still half-convinced that it is disinfo somehow
asciilifeform: i suppose meta-china is where they mine with actual nodes
mircea_popescu: i nfact, they don't actually trust each other enough to share... ips
asciilifeform: as i understand now, we are converging on something quite like (what is known of) the chinese approach.
mircea_popescu: i find no counters to summon.
asciilifeform: do i have to describe here how mitm works? draw a picture ?
asciilifeform: momentarily back to http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-08-2015#1222828 : at this point i very much regard the notion of 'so-and-so is an ip, and at this moment he is Worthy, and now let's try to calculate when he isn't...' as deeply mistaken. ☝︎
asciilifeform: the problem i ~would~ like to solve near-term is 'node demands infinite ram'
asciilifeform: that's sorta what i was doing in the hammock
mircea_popescu: i have been thinking about it.
asciilifeform: whole point of this conversation is that i wanted to say this
mircea_popescu: i specifically chose to ignore this.
asciilifeform: classical apparatus has a data structure, 'mapPriority', http://btc.yt/lxr/satoshi/ident?_i=mapPriority
asciilifeform: which i
mircea_popescu: but what do i know.
asciilifeform: i see no glue, thus far. only the utterance.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=02-08-2015#1222669 << the problem is this : you have to verify old blocks. all of them, al lthe way to genesis. if you do not, for whatever reason, you are on an alt. and if you're going to make an alt, better make it properly and deliberately rather than the idiot woman "i had too much too drink so things happened" approach. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 03-04-2015 19:07:33; mircea_popescu: look. whatever whatever may be built as or not, i have two basic expectations. one is, for fucking machinery to behave the same way from night to next evening. the other, albeit weaker, is that if i get a "minimal work" thing i actually have to do minimal work.
asciilifeform: i happen to believe that we have not yet devised the means for truly separating - conceptually - computer programs
asciilifeform: t was the first time I had really serious doubts about the wisdom of SGML's structuring process, because the massive complexity of it all is _completely_ pointless and a result of spreading the semantics so thin that you had to keep mental track of an enormous number of relationships to end up with an idea of what something should do or mean. It does not have to be that way. It was _profoundly_ disappointing to discover that
asciilifeform: d some of the designs and how it would be implemented, and he was quiet for the longest time before he said that I was probably the first person to have understood what he was _really_ trying to accomplish. That would have been _such_ a great thing if it had been, say, rocket science, but it was not. It was a man-made complexity so great that it had required _months_ of brain-wracking to really get my intuition working. Tha
asciilifeform: 'Overriding and updating old information is something I have to work really hard at. The end result of the way I think and the way the standard is defined is that I immediately saw these massively complex ways to do things that "nobody" understood. Take HyTime and what it calls "architectual forms" -- I vividly remember a long walk around a quiet Tallahassee one summer night with the creator of this concept, when I questione
asciilifeform: (note that i did not specify ~which~ head)
jurov: i remember
asciilifeform: jurov: this kind of thing is at the root of a very old disagreement i have with mircea_popescu
williamdunne: jurov: I'm not sure how long I'll be around for, but if you drop me a doc outlining what you want I'll have a look at it tomorrow
jurov: just asking, i wouldn't put it past them
asciilifeform: which is what i was talking about.
williamdunne: jurov: What would you like on the Eurola website? Starting out with clisp so I'll see if I can get that done as my hello world project
mod6: i like the allure of this.
mod6: yeah, i was trying to say this: <+decimation> you only really need to rebuild bitcoind if that's what you patched
mod6: i.e. I dont have to rebuild the buildroot & "universe" every time I want to add a patch, just rebuild 'stator'.
mod6: no, not since i couldn't get it to build before. i'll try it again this coming week for sure.
shinohai: I haven't got to build that latest yet though, still fails on boost every time.
shinohai: mod6: I'll do a confirm this week.
mod6: I've tested installing the iso's indicated on a VM and went through my own steps 2x (once for each OS)
mod6: All: I've put some steps together for installing ubuntu 10.04 & debian 6.0.10
asciilifeform: anyway, the book is about the i/o chip
decimation: oh I thought they used 6502 like everyone else
decimation: asciilifeform: well, also I want to be reliable
decimation: I'm thinking about ways to manage key material that involve physical devices that can be inspected
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah I was thinking about generating key in a seperate machine and then 'hand-carving' the pcb to store key
decimation: I get it, but I just wanna store some values, not compute derivatives
decimation: ah I see what you mean.
decimation: yeah that's what I'm suggesting (complex impedance - part of which is inductance)
asciilifeform: decimation: i suppose they haven't any accordions to boil
mircea_popescu: "the humans sometimes feast on the bird shit". i guess ?
mircea_popescu: i can see it.
