BingoBoingo: decimation: I've been following it
a bit, but I dunno how much to trust the source
assbot: I'm Ashley Barr,
A.K.

trinque: also, that's
a pretty reasonable vow
BingoBoingo put
a bitcent against rousey tonight on
a shitbook for the lulz
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: pgp.mit.edu was
a gold mine for academic keys they may not have made the transition to sks. I retrieved manually though by schoool.
ben_vulpes: <TheNewDeal>
a new deal of sorts << i will give you points for this even if nobody else will

a wonder they built, you had multilib installed for some reason ?
mircea_popescu: and before anyone wants to tell me the author has five concubines gifted by from cornell west and is widely respected by robed pamplonocrats or w/e : i dun give
a shit kthx.
mircea_popescu: aka "note : my idiocy falls apart at hte most cursory examination, but i am the sort of dumb schmuck that aims to insulate himself from this by waving hands and weaving words, rather than
a thninking person"
mircea_popescu: "Note: I am well aware that dynamic documents are
a huge, gaping, ugly hole in the digital imprimatur scheme. I have not expended
a great deal of effort thinking about ways to better secure such documents; I'm sure this issue will be explored in detail"

gernika: Well shit. Somehow I built 64 bit binaries on
a 32 bit install of gentoo.
gernika: objdump: ./bitcoind: not
a dynamic object
gernika: Not sure if I accidentally built
a 32 bit gentoo or what...

mircea_popescu: you end up with
a pile of html files that would conceivably be smaller than the blockchain (no sigs)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: suppose you accept
a new block. now you do 1) list it in /blocks/ ; 2) iterate over all the txn it includes, list them in /txn/ ; 3) iterate over all addresses included, add and substract from /addresses/address.html
kakobrekla: i dont see why save all html files beforehand if you can just dumpblock on the fly, its
a stupid operations it gets done fast.
mircea_popescu: re that "academic" link earlier : wtf is WRONG with these people. i can not see
a date onthe page.
mircea_popescu: to replace the useless duplicate of all the shit in
a ruby install.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes yeah, there's
a reason i keep saying plain html and db on disk and stuff
ben_vulpes: kakobrekla: 'toshi' creates its db from
a rails schema iirc, no surprise that it's 10x blockchain size
ben_vulpes: ah jesus insight is
a shitshow that much i know from pissing on the fence in question
kakobrekla: last i checked, years ago, that was
a piece of spaghetti pythons that broke weekly
mircea_popescu: having someone from here try it is still
a great thing.
kakobrekla: ben_vulpes sure, and
a bunch of other explorers.
assbot: Why Dogecoin is
a scam, why the people pushing it are assholes, why Business Insider is
a contemptible piece of shit, why anyone who ever worked for it will be dancing in the street for nickels and why Kevin Rose is
a fuckwit. Plus other considerations. on Trilema -

gernika: Is the pederast epithet
a reference to older VCs getting kicks from paying
a bunch of young hacker boys to hang out with them?
kakobrekla: blockdumper is unable to tell you how much spendables is on
a given address.
mircea_popescu: also the fact that "any node can stand up
a block explorer" is just the pill to sink the fucktarded "oh herp, we invested in bc.i" shitticon valley crap.
mircea_popescu: and add
a "guaranteed accurate by process" thing to it makes it wunderbar.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla i see the use of
a block explorer website with 0 js on it.
trinque: seems like looking for log messages in the code would be
a decent way to find where to hook
mircea_popescu: at all points there's
a purely injective function from blockchain to blockexplorer html pile
shinohai: no then you are unwittingly pegged, like
a fat McWhore
kakobrekla: if block explorer is to have any usability you imho need to expand db
a lot.
trinque: you can use it like
a template system... but... wai
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 21:40:14; shinohai: Is there still interest in
a lame block explorer if i pursue the project?
mircea_popescu: this is kind-of unavoidable from
a crypto security perspective.
mircea_popescu: not
a "solved problem" in my estimation, yet. future will decide.
cazalla: and i contacted them saying hey, perhaps you'd like to link to the original instead of
a copy wrapped in adsense but he declined
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 15:52:27; asciilifeform: who was it who lifted
a piece wholesale? 'forbes' ?
mircea_popescu: 163 would imply

☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: i vaguely recall we even discussed this, in re
a bitcoin fs.
assbot: Logged on 01-08-2015 18:47:08; trinque: anyone give
a shit about discussing cranking
a magic number to 11 without discussing how the fuck it's using that many locks?
shinohai: I'd rather be known as
a knight of La Serenissima.

decimation: in the uk in particular, there is
a strong tradition of 'surgeon is not doctor, but skilled craftsman'
mircea_popescu: there's
a difference, you know, between faeces flinger and bed shitter.
mircea_popescu: some people actually wanna learn
a trade for chryssakes.
mircea_popescu: because no fucking laywer to date has yet asked
a question he didn't know the answer to

mircea_popescu: universal access to the Internet would provide
a countervailing force against the centralisation and concentration in government and the mass media which act to constrain freedom of expression and unrestricted access to information. Further, the Internet, properly used, could actually roll back government and corporate encroachment on individual freedom by allowing information to flow past the barriers erected by tota
mircea_popescu: "Over the last two years I have become deeply and increasingly pessimistic about the future of liberty and freedom of speech, particularly in regard to the Internet. This is
a complete reversal of the almost unbounded optimism I felt during the 1994–1999 period when public access to the Internet burgeoned and innovative new forms of communication appeared in rapid succession. In that epoch I was firmly convinced that

a little 'secure terminal' which could store key material reliably
