BingoBoingo: I find it kind of funny the first mainstream surgical robots are for urology.

gabriel_laddel: ^ I had a lot of fun watching that last night

gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: I was simply noting that I'm really the wrong person to speak with about living healthy if one wishes to carry on a conversation.

gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: Aaron's post had nothing to say about smoking, drinking and I don't think that being opposed to these is "new age-y"

mod6: anyway, hanbot: I'll be updating the document as I go through this whole process. I'll let you know when I get something that's bare-rails specfic. Thanks for the help! :]

gabriel_laddel: mod6: nah, I just wanted to use something more sane than their default package manager

trinque: gabriel_laddel: awesome, I look forward to that

gabriel_laddel: trinque: yeah, I'm fixing the install guide and writing an introductory bare-bones lesson now

mod6: as far as "looking into" anything specific... i didn't. to me it just seems similar to freebsd's ports or something.

mod6: yeah, well, I did add the "portage-latest" into the handrolled gentoo.

mod6: gabriel_laddel: yeah, you'll have to forgive me, i have no idea what you're referring to.

trinque: gabriel_laddel: I've heard rumors of gentoo+common-lisp but haven't seen anything; is that you?

gabriel_laddel: mod6: I would classify that as "looking into" portage

gabriel_laddel: mod6: I wrote an ebuild parser, ran sloccount, read through the documentation, opened a few files + ebuilds at random and read through them.

mod6: And lastly, I really need to get some sort of physical environment here to support that last part. So I'll work on figuring out something for that as well. Maybe even an old laptop.

gabriel_laddel: I was poking around the other day - first there is ~70k LoC, which wtf seriously

mod6: Apparently this is not much different than what I've already done, but I really don't know.

mod6: So basically that's where we are. I've gotten to the point where I can create an AWS AMI -> deploy hand-rolled Gentoo instance. I'll certainly continue to build out the blessed toolchain over the next week and beyond. Further, then I'll take what I've learned from all of this and apply it to building a hand-rolled Gentoo on a bare-rails environment.

mod6: Upon news of my endevour, Mr. P. asked me to document what I'd done carefully so we all can be on the same page -- which is also good because I don't know what I'm doing with Gentoo anyway. Having people look over what I'm doing provides some bit of steering in-case I get off course.

mod6: So the idea was that I would learn a few things about Gentoo, get a hand-rolled stage3 + a fully blessed tool chain and be able to attch my "btc-dev" storage volume and just pick up where we left-off -- at lesat as far as what artifacts I'd already collected.

mod6: One of my goals was to get this going as soon as possible in AWS so we could continue with builds/testing/development and ditch Debian6. And additonally, I have a 350Gb storage volume there that I wanted to not just discard as it has at least half-a-dozen fully sync'd blockchains on there.

mod6: To begin with, I was completely unfamiliar with gentoo in any sense -- aside from once trying to set it up from the Handbook, which I found that I didn't have time to work my way through and get it set up properly. So my goal was to get familiar with Gentoo and to start to build a system that can be agreed upon that suits our needs for building bitcoind. ☟︎

mod6: Allow me to elaborate for a minute here and I'll explain why I did what I did.

BingoBoingo: http://i.imgur.com/RvF9Pje.jpg

mod6: <+hanbot> ... hey mod6, could you make a version of this that isn't aws-specific? or wouldja be willing to me make one? << yea, absolutely. I'll get there at some point soon hopefully.

gabriel_laddel: Yeah. I read his blog post on intelligence and genetics, confused the two of you and thought he was making some sort of ad-hoc /pol/-style 'argument'.

williamdunne: gabriel_laddel: What did I say?

gabriel_laddel: doned medicine and that medicine would have been better off to abandon philosophy. He also notes that "On Wounds in the Head" contains remarkably practical techniques that would have been extremely advanced had they discovered antiseptics. I don't know enough about the development of medicine to (dis)agree with this assessment, but will note that Semmelweis didn't discover antiseptics until ~1850 (and the medical co

gabriel_laddel: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=09-05-2015#1126254 << To give my definitive word on the matter I'd have to review his works in their entirety and learn ionic Greek + Greek philosophy. For now, I read the first ~150 pages of Hippocrates, Acient Medicine, Vol. 1 - English translation by W.H.S. Jones. It did not strike me as "new age-y". The author(s) of this particular work was clearly attempting, to the best of ☝︎

assbot: Logged on 09-05-2015 15:49:16; funkenstein_: gabriel_laddel, I said no such thing. This is a public log.

gabriel_laddel: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-05-2015#1126436 << I'm terribly sorry about that, I confused you with williamdunne ☝︎

pete_dushenski: "i want to make x and i won't sell for less"

mircea_popescu: we have this ongoing debate re orlov i guess.

lobbes: I only just started reading Orlov's blog not too long ago. On alf's recommendation, I skipped to some of his earlier stuff (from roughly 2011?). I do get the feeling that he can either be 'hit or miss' at times. ☟︎

lobbes: mircea_popescu was appreciating the wordplay ;/ But I would agree nonetheless

mircea_popescu: lobbes i was talking about femen specifically. you think not ?

mircea_popescu: not that it's not genuine sentiment, i'm sure to some degree it is. the topless sluts were ALSO genuine sentiment, for sure just as genuine, definitely as widely held. the result ? 400 people, beat up by police, not 4mn pushed by the govt press agents. ☟︎

hanbot: well i guess we'll find out!

jurov: hanbot i don't know what mod6 exactly meant

mircea_popescu: i imagine.

mircea_popescu: here, i see your gavin andresen impersonator and raise you, http://41.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m421aoiZzX1qjm83bo1_1280.jpg

mircea_popescu: "here i sit in a prefab vinyl siding plebhousing unit, burning a 50 dollar bill" ? ☟︎☟︎

cazalla: i dunno, just some random imgur

cazalla: given all this interracial stuff.. in other news http://i.imgur.com/Sw9HtSO.png

mircea_popescu: there are also 68 keys with duplicate moduli, but i imagine that wouldn't impact very much the overall numbers ?

mircea_popescu: so ascii_field from the above, am i correct in deducing that there have been at most 47728 - 31262-4584 = 11882 (out of 47728, or ~1/4) keys without any RSA subkeys in them ? ☟︎

mircea_popescu: bwhaha. who penned this i wish to know ? the man himself is incapable of such quality.

mircea_popescu: Adlai why do you think final i in satoshi is long ?

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-05-2015#1128969 << dude, i actually like CultOs ☝︎

hanbot: mircea_popescu> <mod6> once I have these guys << hanbot how about you help with that effort ? << hey mod6, could you make a version of this that isn't aws-specific? or wouldja be willing to help me make one?

ascii_field: (at the time the fastest box i had, had mca bus only)

danielpbarron: the smashing guitar thing is very rock and roll. here's the original i think -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xZOrWK6d4g

ascii_field: i later pulled it off and plugged into an ordinary sb-16

mircea_popescu: i had a 286! and (after that!) a weird pc-xt that had asm debugger built into bios. and so on

ascii_field: l0l, i had one

ascii_field: speaking of which, i just bought a 486-133.

lobbes: I've got a love for 'fast blues'; srv and the like

mod6: anyway, mircea_popescu I'll talk to ben_vulpes about helping me write something up for these charts.

trinque: mircea_popescu: I tend to think this was the last time rock happened -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRQjFB3MV4s

mircea_popescu: so i've been listening to aerosmith all morning. shocking how great bad music was, 40 or so years ago.

mod6: if you're looking at timing metrics, I can just use 'time' or just rely on the time started in PS and subtract that from the end time.

mircea_popescu: i don't see it makes that big of a difference.

mod6: i don't have the kinda hardware for this sort of ting.

mod6: so, i probably just run them consecutively unless it /really/ matters.

mod6: the one alone costs me $89/mo. and now i've got 2 others for gentoo, and another one is gonna get pricy for this month.

mod6: anyway, I was considering running another full-sync without the OrphanageThermonuke patch -- just a v0.5.3.1-RELEASE baseline.

mircea_popescu: anyway, i must say the profiling seen here crowns an expectation that has been slowly building from what was shown prior, ie that the snipped bitcoin 5 we're using is actually a major improvement over the old bitcoin 5, and thus very, very far ahead of bitcoin 10/11/etc.

mod6: no idea. i can post the raw data if someone wants to pour through it.

mircea_popescu: mod6 yeah kinda what i was trying to evaluate, if the "0, usually" is valid.

mircea_popescu: ascii_field i don't recall ever running a node under 8gb, and for that matter that was more like 2012. i think everything now's 32.

ascii_field: so far, i'm 90% certain that this is mainly due to fragging.

mod6: i'll maybe try another tool next time.

assbot: Logged on 12-05-2015 00:38:06; asciilifeform: mod6: the obvious steps are 1) determine if still leaks (tentatively, i will say that it does not) and 2) determine wtf is eating the ram

mod6: i just kicked it on and let it run. i've never used it before.

mod6: Hmm, the swap and & disk are blank for some reason. im sure I just didn't do something correct with those.

thestringpuller: reddit users i suppose so it is irrelevant. the level of ignorance is just astonishing tho

thestringpuller: bitmex d00d says, and i quote, "it is trivial to mitm mpex.co cause it uses http"

ascii_field: saying 'i want a government only -so- big' is a bit like asking for 'a tumour only -so- big'

assbot: Logged on 08-05-2015 19:42:12; mircea_popescu: which incidentally - if anyone wants to sysadmin an aws-style offering on top of bisp metal, please get in touch. i'm open to the idea, we'd have to discuss how it would work.

mircea_popescu: i bet nobody gets them booze, either.

assbot: The Frogs - I'm Sad, My Goat Just Died Today - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1K4KdIR )

mircea_popescu: "but i have a shirt and shoes!" "so does my goat."

mircea_popescu: fluffypony it's not even that, lol. i'm not making a judgement based on how the twerp presents itself. this is more like, "you're not famous, go away", but for a much better definition of famous. "people i care about heard of you."

lobbes: 'Before I consider joining your Web of Trust' lmao

jurov: neat. i am finally beating the mailman into submission, turdatron can link there ☟︎

mike_c: i'll add something

mod6: trinque: <+mod6> bah. so now that i know a bit about uclibc, perhaps I need to go through this again with this "[19] hardened/linux/uclibc/amd64" instead of "[14] hardened/linux/amd64/no-multilib << yeah

assbot: Logged on 12-05-2015 03:19:21; mircea_popescu: i'd rather see uclibc in the "official" b-a linux

lobbes: Adlai, career criminals, sure. But I'm skeptical that a bunch of career criminals would suddenly align against a common foe, rather than continue the 'business as usual' of fighting each other ☟︎

assbot: Logged on 12-05-2015 03:19:21; mircea_popescu: i'd rather see uclibc in the "official" b-a linux

mircea_popescu: i thought they're just pulling a great gatsby / jerry seifeld, and just storing them

mircea_popescu: i guess so.

mod6: *nod*, I'll work on trying that out and getting an update in there. :]

mircea_popescu: i'd rather see uclibc in the "official" b-a linux ☟︎☟︎☟︎

mod6: bah. so now that i know a bit about uclibc, perhaps I need to go through this again with this "[19] hardened/linux/uclibc/amd64" instead of "[14] hardened/linux/amd64/no-multilib"

mircea_popescu: <mod6> once I have these guys << hanbot how about you help with that effort ?

mod6: asciilifeform: yeah. i agree. maybe when I have a better idea of what's actually going on, i'll have a bare rails guide or something similar.

trinque: asciilifeform: at least in this case what I really have is a gentoo builder that could as easily build a disk image for a box in front of me

trinque: work's ongoing, I need the tool
