mats: 'pramfs' looked furthest along when
i last checked
☟︎ mod6: sure, ok. so what we'll need to do (and even
I haven't tried patching those in myself yet) is to extract the stator, then apply the patches.
shinohai: kk but the whole reason
I want to do this is so
I can try the new patches by ascii_field, the blockdump
mod6: yeah, that's what
i was saying before: leave your v0.5.3.1-RELEASE as-is. Then setup a new environment to give the "stator" build a try -- is pre-patched, so should be able to compile and run, or if your slightly more daring, just run the included pre-compiled (by alf) binary (ensure to check sigs first!)
mircea_popescu:
i suspek computing is moving towards joint ram/disk anyway.
shinohai: @ mod6
I think
I should start with a bare build. the other one is fine, son't want to touch it xD
mats: dignork:
i'm looking forward to a test drive
ascii_field: what
i did learn is that mapBlockIndex grows linearly (300 bt) for every block ever seen.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: at present,
i doubt that we'll turn up any oddities in the blocks per se
mircea_popescu: anyway
i'll feel a lot better about this world and my life once this has been actually reviewed by third parties. ie , you.
ascii_field: well
i haven't 'eatblock'ified anything past 217335 yet
dignork: ascii_field: it's less cooler than
i wished :) For example there is an interesting problem with blind shuffling.
assbot: Logged on 20-02-2015 14:56:37; dignork: mircea_popescu:
I can't currently handle it myself, but
I can bring a friend and we'll split the work, would you be interested to cooperate?
pete_dushenski: while in food program,
i only ever issued one executive officer's order on the spot
pete_dushenski: when
i sat in chair, about 7-10 hrs per week,
i worked
pete_dushenski:
i know,
i used to work for the largest employer in the province, 5th largest in country
ascii_field: (though ashes-scattered-in-orbit, from what
i hear, is even better)
ascii_field: pete_dushenski: for me, usa is this roughly 200 km. sq. spot where
i can get to my meatwot
ascii_field: funkenstein_:
i pay the 700 in order ~not to wake up with a bill for 500,000~
ascii_field: pete_dushenski: because
i'm not in a market.
ascii_field: pete_dushenski:
i'll give you something to chew on. for instance:
i pay ~700+ usd / mo just to have the possibility of accessing basic medical care if
i need it
pete_dushenski: ascii_field:
i guess
i'll wait until
i see a monthly budget breakdown on loper-os.com before
i submit my analysis :)
ascii_field: pete_dushenski: if you believe that
i'm overpaying for something,
i'd like to hear - for what
ascii_field: if
i'm not paid enough to 'reallocate capital' - to borrow mircea's terminology - than
i am in same category as the 'room & board' folks
trinque: pete_dushenski:
I had this notion regarding the bums all over portland, that someone should take them to nearby farms for day labor in exchange for meals, showers, and somewhere to be warehoused at night.
☟︎ decimation: well,
I was thinking of when all value passes through the bitcoin hole
phf:
i was exploring block storage format, so
i wrote some lisp code to read blocks out of .dat in sequence or directly from dumpblock'ed file
http://paste.lisp.org/+38JG. i'm not sure where
i'm going with it, so
i'm leaving it here for interested parties.
☟︎☟︎ decimation: like, why can't
I communicate the blockchain to anyone
I wish, in any way
I wish
decimation: actually
I would pay good money for a robot that could wonder through a yard and pull weeds
☟︎ decimation: yeah,
I was talking with a farmer once, apparently john deere etc are investing heavily in fully autonomous tractors
pete_dushenski: then a huntin'
i shall go, a huntin'
i shall go, hi ho the marry-o, a huntin'
i shall go.
ascii_field:
i dare say mr k's thing is a bit more... current
pete_dushenski:
i knew of his two auto-biographies from his youth and early middle age
pete_dushenski: which,
i suppose, only works when those bezzlars are being traded to back breaking labour across the pond somewheres
assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 13:47:19; ben_vulpes: decimation: now is when
i confess to a quarter-implemented blockchain->relational db importer
shinohai:
I also like that it doesn't use up a fuckton of memory and bandwidth during sync xD
shinohai: resyncing to the mp node only,
I am impressed with the speed at which
I am syncing.
ben_vulpes: more later,
i have 2 hours of ferry ride coming up
decimation:
I would pay more for someone who didn't know how to program 'front-end'
decimation: but yeah
I bet most people using 'nosql' just want caches
decimation:
I'm suggesting an intermediate step where you query your nosql db properly and place the results into a structured relational db
decimation: the only situation
I can imagine is if you have a gigantic pile of disorganized data, that probably has a structure
ben_vulpes:
i've yet to see the real world problem that a nosql db was actually the right solution to that wasn't actually a cacheing/cdn problem
ben_vulpes: decimation:
i'm finally seeing the tide receed from mongo's highwater
ben_vulpes: but perhaps there's a good reason for writing the blocks directly to disk that
i'm not grasping
decimation:
I suspect satoshi intended on making a transactional database using the block .dat files at a later date
ben_vulpes:
i've lost weeks, months of my life to the unqueriability of mongo and phriendz
decimation:
I can see 'saving space' for the transactional table, but why also keep the blockchain in binary form?
ben_vulpes:
i was under the impression that it was either not relational or was only being used in bitcoind as a kv store
shinohai:
I just now got connected to mp's node so
i guess
i got to start over
ben_vulpes: decimation: now is when
i confess to a quarter-implemented blockchain->relational db importer
☟︎ decimation: such a thing would be needed for the 'private wallet query service' that ascii and
I discussed last night
diana_coman:
I did not really check it, but if it works even in this neck of the woods, it can't really be
Vexual: yeah,
i might need to find some flotsam before
i find some flotsam
diana_coman: btw Vexual, once you get it, you might want to come by to me as
I can give you some stuff to get started
diana_coman: there was some concrete info on this in the last post on trilema
I think
diana_coman: and lol,
I actually did not manage to wear out even one of those
Vexual: oh flat, sorry,
i misread
Vexual:
i'll take two cruddy hos and a clump of fat slag please
Vexual: ok
i read backwards, but
i wont read day 1
Vexual:
i spilled some doritos for effect
Vexual: yeah
i googled it,
i felt a bit silly typing "is witcher multiplayer"
HeySteve: once
I'm done with Witcher 3,
I want to see if
I can make some progress in figuring it out
HeySteve: only other game
I can remember dreaming about is original Doom
jurov:
i only remember morning dreams, so rem perhaps
Vexual:
i must say im more than a little intigued, even discounting the favours you mentioned
davout: pm me a postal address and
i'll send them
davout: jurov: if you want a couple pogos
i can send them to you
trinque: in that case
I'd like to claim my family's pre-mussolini wealth from italy
trinque: decimation:
I believe so; inside your container you have your own network device
trinque: shinohai: yeah
I used it on deedbot to make a final judgment
shinohai:
i use docker on hashbang, but it is like a Rube Goldberg cartoon
trinque:
I would expect (as admittedly a casual in the kernel space) to find the same kinds of break-out flaws in docker and linux containers as are found all the time in xen
decimation:
I would think it would require examining the outcome of every player's bet
decimation: okay, well that's essentially what electrum server does
I guess
shinohai:
I can't get electrum right for shit.
I did a test tx using pywallet to import a privkey
decimation: how do
I find txns for accounting in my wallet
decimation: it uses a tcp connection with a special block server
I think
assbot: Logged on 24-06-2015 02:59:50; mircea_popescu:
i dun think
i ever said anything about that.
