williamdunne: bitcoin doesn't take over through convincing random fuckwit of "more benefits". bitcoin takes over by raping the state. permanently. <<< See,
I totally agree with this. But this is why
I think that there should be bigger blocks (not Gavin's proposal, but statically bigger). Easier to rape the state surely if its less inconvenient and more people can do so
mircea_popescu: "No thanks.
I'll keep using my card. It has way too many benefits not to.
I'll switch to Bitcoin when it's easier to use, offers buyer protection and has more benefits than cc's. Which won't be anytime soon." << funny how dynamic equilibrium perceived as static works.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
i wonder if gay sites have a serious problem with supplying enough bottoms.
williamdunne: Naphex: True,
I still need to take a proper look at that
williamdunne: davout: Well for example, the Java one that
I wrote can match 160k/s when pumping in random data directly. But when we add the overheads for actually accepting and handling orders from customers it will not do close to that
williamdunne: davout:
I thought some of the structure was pretty cool with the Elixir message queue
davout: jurov: yea,
i subscribed a few times but never received a confirmation
kakobrekla:
i can make assbot say !rate whatever but it wont eval that
mircea_popescu:
i might be the only one left doing things this way, but afaik the way is, you give the woman a task. she either does it or doesn't.
cazalla: he actually took a few days off of okcupid because of it.. "Naturally,
I reported that conversation for abusive behaviour and
I took a break from the site for a few days because frankly
I was not expecting that and was a bit shaken from the experience."
cazalla:
i guess women don't want to hear libertarian shit on okcupid
assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 03:18:03; asciilifeform: jurov: ...there are new miniitx mobos with ECC support... << where?! link plz.
i'd buy at least one to try
mircea_popescu: also
i find the idea that various things have different webs of trust silly. yes, idiots use meat wots. this is exactly how aristotle's "no politics is your politics" thing went. otherwise, the wot's for all things.
assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 03:57:05; EllieAsksWhy:
I initially knew Web of Trust as the Finnish company mywot which has totally gone to hell since someone bought them out a year ago. Your Web of Trust is more like the real one, that proceeded mywot by over a decade, right?

I am still not convinced that Blythe Masters is truly a "master" of derivatives. She seems more like an investment banker/ figurehead.
ben_vulpes: keep 'em comin,
i gotta get my ass back into my life routine
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes:
i knew it was close-ish but
i suppose there's even some overlap
Vexual: no,
i wasnt awake then'
Vexual:
i rode the hang seng this morning and
i figured it's time to bitcoin, how was the conf?
EllieAsksWhy: Okay,
I am departing now. Thank you everyone. You've been kind and mild. Please give my best wishes to Mircea, if possible.
EllieAsksWhy:
I will peruse. Y'all will probably be amused by this, but
I tried to get myself here by getting an account at one of those bitcoin gambling sites, Satoshi Dice or such.
I thought that if
I could get an ID there,
I could figure out how to use it as a
EllieAsksWhy:
I need to figure out how to get in your WoT so that
I can return here. If
I have questions or encounter difficulties, may
I ask you for guidance via Twitter, Daniel?
EllieAsksWhy: Thank you, Daniel.
I wasn't sure if that were okay. So many people use pseudonyms which aren't truly that pseudo.
EllieAsksWhy:
I do due diligence, using data analysis and descriptive statistics and probability mostly.
I like finding problems and vulnerabilities and fraud and arb opportunities.
EllieAsksWhy: Hello, hanbot! This is me linkedin.com/in/4lisa
I probably shouldn't do this, but
I'm looking for a job and unfortunately, that requires using my real full name.
EllieAsksWhy: Adlai,
I use chat on StackOverflow. This reminds me somewhat of that.
EllieAsksWhy: Daniel,
I'm sorry,
I'm being too diffuse. Disregard that,
I can explain further later.
EllieAsksWhy: Ah,
I see. Dogs. With a crufty accent they become dogs :) Are smileys okay here?
I interject them a lot.
EllieAsksWhy: Ah, okay, gpg4win thank you.
I want to return here again, very much!
EllieAsksWhy: DAG, Adlai? Should
I not use punctuation here (does it mess up assbot's ability to function smoothly)?
EllieAsksWhy:
I am running Windows 7 with Chrome browser. Not cool, no linux or ubuntu or whatnot.
assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 04:02:15; EllieAsksWhy:
I'm sorry,
I'll try to calm down and be more linear.
I have never had the opportunity to actually talk about any of this stuff with anyone.
I only read about things on my own.
EllieAsksWhy:
I need to get a feel for syntax here, and metier.
I liked Second Life chat and sometimes Google chat, but am kind of sheltered about messaging, other than Microsoft Connections to annoy the DBA at work.
EllieAsksWhy: Yes, Adlai, reddit is inferior to IRC. reddit has an IRC but
I haven't used it.
I don't trust Facebook.
I don't use it, and like to say that it steals your soul.
I sort of kind of believe that, in a casual sense, not a real one. It would be blasphemous to suggest it was really true!

☟︎ EllieAsksWhy: Okay, thank you.
I love how assbot bots on in. It is like a wonderful, interactive version of reddit.
I shall return.
EllieAsksWhy:
I want to be in the WoT.
I got a keybase.io key thingy.
I was trying to figure out if
I could use it for here.
EllieAsksWhy:

☟︎ EllieAsksWhy:
I often browse, lurk, read your logs though. On the sidelines, voiceless
danielpbarron: nope, the contrary
i'm sure; your presence will almost surely start up a conversation
EllieAsksWhy: Daniel, am
I driving everyone away by my presence? That happens in NRx Jackal Hour too :)
danielpbarron: hello!
I had invited you in the past but
I think this is your first time?
EllieAsksWhy: Hello Daniel of Twitter! Wow, this is so exciting.
I just replaced my keyboard,
I was using the virtual one before, so
I could barely type and was hesitant to visit here.
menahem: TheButterZone if you start making more tracks,
I'mma get in on that!
trinque: mp:
I did commit the equivalent of showing up with a flamethrower at a figure skating competition, "what move is that! IT LITERALLY MELTED THE ICE!11" << ahahaha my sides
mircea_popescu:
i think ima collect the cunts-on-perl discussion. it's pretty good!
mircea_popescu:
i used to say b-a increases one's iq by a good chunk of points
assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 21:29:55; williamdunne: Although
I'd want it to be somewhere out of US reach
mircea_popescu:
i think
i managed to botehr the shit out of gabriel_laddel
jurov:
i've got miniitx with celeron, thrown gentoo on it and was impressed how quickly it compiled
jurov: okay. there are new miniitx mobos with ECC support,
i suppose the higher price would pay off
williamdunne: jurov: Fuck yeah
I'd pay $20 for that.
I thought you meant something roughly equiv to a rPi. With a well optimized site you could get a k reqs a second on that
trinque: what
I want is a host that provides physical boxes that aren't that powerful, are cheap, but are not joined at the brainstem to other systems
trinque: urov |
i'm not criticizing anything << well sure you are, but there's no harm in that
williamdunne: jurov:
I'd need to know the exact specs, but $20 for some bare metal - sure
jurov:
i'm not criticizing anything
jurov:
i can't imagine how to convince the neighbors, tho. and it'll need to get switched off in the summer.
jurov: in our condo are unused rooms, maybe
i can fill one with oil, submerge the machines and use the heat to heat whole house
assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 03:50:42; asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> that may be.
i'm just pointing out that biology offers a very significant challenge to theoretical cs. <<
i must confess, that
i am at a loss as to which aspects of meat we should like to replicate in machines: intransigence? toe fungus? pneumonia? schizophrenia?
assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 01:18:03; Pierre_Rochard: williamdunne: had a similar head against wall bug yesterday, in pgsql: to_timestamp(‘2014-2’, ‘YYYY-Q’), doesn’t work because the docs clearly state “quarter (ignored by to_date and to_timestamp)” but it was three hours of desperate refactoring before
I actually read them.
williamdunne: Sure, but
I need to have a feed of all their names not gonna just brutefoce it
williamdunne: jurov: How would
I scrape the lordship? Isn't it decided by more than just rep?
jurov: (jus' to have you develop asswot interface
i can snitch :DDD)
williamdunne:
I'm currently in the process of over-engineering SccopBot while adding the library features, any requests for features?
jurov: ;;later tell pete_dushenski title pic of contravex is quite a hog and despite the size still has jpg artifacts,
i'd recommend converting original to png and running through pngquant
assbot: Successfully added a rating of 2 for danielpbarron with note: While may have some strong opinions
I disagree with, would trust him
williamdunne: !rate danielpbarron 2 While may have some strong opinions
I disagree with, would trust him
assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 04:01:49; trinque: it's a wonder
I can hit the toilet with my ass
williamdunne: Maybe
I'm trying to pander to most people too much
jurov: davout: yes,
i do the btc-dev list
menahem:
i gotta go.. thanks for time + insight thus far.
mircea_popescu: here's another thing that doesn't work : "The worst part, is Torrie Fischer is competent with PGP 4. My advice to her, is" << the problem being that
i can readily see her cv, but
i don't see yours. from whence do you give her advice ? this jars.
