pete_dushenski: "The government is anxiously awaiting the market opening on Monday to see if the new measures will halt a 30 percent plunge in the last three weeks,"
williamdunne: pete_dushenski: I'd assume like a standard CFD brokerage but they hedge the bitcoins to USD also
asciilifeform bbl in a spell
assbot: No Such lAbs (S.NSA), June 2015 Statement on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1LR83sq )
mircea_popescu: ie, it still does what it was meant to do (publish the old blocks) and it keeps a valuable datapoint for the future.
asciilifeform: i have a snapshot btw
asciilifeform: stalled for a few hrs now
mircea_popescu: it is, in fact, the one difference i see. there are the people who, when confronted with an unexpected symbol, DREAM UP a story involving it. then there are the people who fling the text across the room.
mircea_popescu: it does have significant similarities with actual congruence, so it's correcrtly oriented intuitively, and a word is prolly needed
mircea_popescu: tbh it's not a bad innovation
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo mmmyeah, remember a year or so ago when i was like "dude gtfo, nobody is using bitcoin pseudocore for any purpose" and the whole "community" of "experts" in their own dreams was liek "omfg mp spreading fuds and what does he know anyway!!1"

decimation: I would settle for a manned expedition to juipter
decimation: having a non-metal skin would probably reduce condensation
decimation: interesting: "The Boeing 787 has the healthiest air of any commercial plane, thanks to filters with an efficiency of 99.97 percent. Humidity too is substantially higher. The plane?s all-composite structure is less susceptible to condensation, and a unique circulation system pumps dry air through the lining between the cabin walls and exterior skin."
decimation: airplane air is typically very dry http://www.askthepilot.com/questionanswers/cabin-air-quality/ " At around 12 percent humidity, it is drier than you will find in most deserts. This is chiefly a by-product of cruising at high-altitudes, where moisture content is somewhere between low and nonexistent."
mircea_popescu: ie, put it out at a specified tem and humidity.
mircea_popescu: i bet you it's because all he had were cheapo units that always demoisturize to a certain % as result of their function, rather than actually CONDITION the air
ben_vulpes: a liberal /myth/, jurov
ben_vulpes: global warming is a myth
trinque: fuck a docker.
trinque: remove docker -> set up same application like a normal person with runit and users substituting for containers -> free up 5gb
mod6: gernika: it makes sense that you can not dump 168`001. keep it posted at that url for a few days. I wanna see if I can replicate with obsd on my side (as soon as I can get it built statically), or when I free up my aws environment from its current sync process (if that should come first). I can use the aws one to cut out block 168`000 and compare the two.
asciilifeform: so there was a reorg
asciilifeform: just a very occasional new block
assbot: Logged on 05-07-2015 11:18:09; punkman: on a related note, kinda annoying reading through logs and trying to read all those expired dpastes
assbot: A Talk: Nick Ford Voltairine de Cleyre. Stephan Kinsella. Porcfest 2015 - YouTube ... ( http://bit.ly/1CeaguF )
ben_vulpes: the stroll from office to tacos midday is almost guaranteed to pink me up a bit.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes is sitting under a red sun << one of my most favourite things about b-a voyage was being able to sit in the sun without checking dosimeter or smearing toxic sludge all over my skin
ben_vulpes: a forest fire even further north than i is smogging up the world
asciilifeform: the one-function-at-a-time thing is like looking through a tank periscope
ben_vulpes is sitting under a red sun
asciilifeform repeats the call for some hero to step up and produce a wall-printable callgraph for therealbitcoin.
mats: iirc usg has provided four frigates for naval defense, a pathetic number in any case that could not stop any mildly determined attempt to storm the island ☟︎
shinohai: @ asciilifeform I should have a pogo up and running inside this week.
asciilifeform: (whether there can be such a guarantee at all is questionable. but at present, enemy has a slight information advantage, as he's been crapping in that thing since possibly before day 1)
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-07-2015#1187470 << what i was saying there bears repeating. if we had a fleet of pogos deployed, they would ~all~ be paperweights now. and for so long as we use the cpp turd, there can be no guarantee of this kind of thing not happening in the future. ☝︎☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: danielpbarron, mod6, anybody with a SYNCED 0.5.x node: please consider blkcut ( http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/2015-July/000113.html ) -ing your most recent blkxxxx and uploading a tarball of the last 500 or so blocks

asciilifeform: if you're gonna take a shot at a lizardman, don't shoot for the knee!
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-07-2015#1188163 << this is why, when dealing with a usg-powered entity, the correct procedure is not 'disclosure', which will be censored and hushed up; but - total annihilation ☝︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 05-07-2015 09:31:13; mircea_popescu: "UO is very much a view into the world that could have been, if WOW hadn't come along and MMORPGs became driven by addiction mechanics instead of depth. (I do not necessarily mean that as a perjorative... I take my own hits on the bong of grind-based (J/W/T)RPGs sometimes. But it's a fair description.)"
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-07-2015#1188105 << i've always said to phriends who played 'grind mmporgs' : 'there is a uranium mine somewhere missing a man. you are that man' ☝︎
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu node on dulap is still wedged. and apparently this is not a terribly good place for a node, phuctor gets i/o-starved and dies ☟︎
assbot: 1 results for 'Urbach' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=Urbach
punkman: not a priority I know, but someone should exorcise that json_spirit crap (maybe with https://github.com/open-source-parsers/jsoncpp or https://github.com/giacomodrago/minijson_writer )
punkman: gave this a spin, works out the box https://github.com/ckald/pyccoon
shinohai: @ 310610 this morning, so abt a year behind.
mats: pgpdump really needs a rewrite... ☟︎
gribble: Error: "avgprice" is not a valid command.
punkman: cazalla: will they casually mine 5% of blocks in a year?

hdbuck: any b-a official statement regarding yesturday’s f0rk attempt?
hdbuck: some random internet dude, wondering in B-A
punkman: jurov, maybe throw a pastebin up there while you are at it
jurov: punkman: good idea, maybe i'll do it. needs just a simple web form to upload file and signature
mats: imo the mainland is willing and capable of waiting decades (if not a century) to retake .tw
punkman: on a related note, kinda annoying reading through logs and trying to read all those expired dpastes ☟︎☟︎☟︎
punkman: mod6, maybe a little script on the foundation website so we can upload and archive debug.logs (without shitting 50mb attachments all over the ml)
punkman: cool, I'll give it a look when you publish
jurov: ;;later tell punkman to receive your shares to your coinbr/mpex account, ask me or submit a deed

mod6: mircea_popescu: yeah, we totally were. but it seems this time its a different error and a different txid!
mod6: cc1plus: out of memory allocating 46376 bytes after a total of 0 bytes << lol
mod6: speaking of compiling stator on openssl, i gave it a try today but hit this: http://dpaste.com/0WRAK16.txt
mod6: <+gernika> mod6 stator with mods for OpenBSD. Blockheight=168000 << if it's a problem in block 168`001, i'm sure we hit this problem in february. but it should be resolved with openssl 1.0.1g.
asciilifeform: my brother owns a coupla GB in floppies in his house
asciilifeform: ;;later tell danielpbarron wouldja mind dumpblock-ing a few blx at the wedgepoint ? ty
assbot: Logged on 04-07-2015 23:07:05; danielpbarron: 71.232.150.212 port 8139 is a fully synched 0.5.3.1~ node
asciilifeform: this is running a classic 'stator'
asciilifeform: but nothing remotely suggesting that a block of any description tried to appaer.
Vexual: its a rite of passage for upper middle class aussie kids
Vexual: hey, if you can't fix it with whisky and a hammer, its broken
cazalla: Vexual, having some whiskey on a sunday eh?
Vexual: i must admit, the soothsayer in me saw an error when bfl hit 2 in a row
mircea_popescu: if in a decade rsa is still as strong as today...

decimation: well, yeah that's a matter for a mathematiciansssss5
decimation: now, as I pointed out with midnightmagic, it strikes me as backwards to develop a replacement before describing a spec
mircea_popescu: it's the result of a for-profit venture of some sort, gmaxwell went on a reddit rampage explaining hopw they "found bugs" and how great the entire process is etc
Vexual: perhaps it's just a succession of tunnels
Vexual: ascii_modem might like a voice
decimation: asciilifeform: of mild interest from last night, apparently 'sipa' (Pieter Wuille) wrote a secp256k1 replacement library, apparently in attempt to ditch openssl https://github.com/bitcoin/secp256k1
decimation: on the other hand, the shitgnomes are doing a great job at discrediting themselves
decimation: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-07-2015#1187537 < yeah but meanwhile the shitgnomes dig deeper. surely there's a point where they muck things up? or perhaps there's nothing to be done about it. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 04-07-2015 20:48:14; danielpbarron: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-07-2015#1186129 << a tape recorder is the one thing I forgot to bring (I had specifically prepared one for the event but forgot to pack it) -- the mere act of having such a device around free-staters would probably trigger them into a rage
decimation: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=04-07-2015#1187182 < asciilifeform I recall a similar conversation we had > http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-06-2015#1175692 ☝︎☝︎
