assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 12:03:45; diana_coman: very solid for
a piece of thread basically :)))
mircea_popescu: this difference is
a lot more marked than the subtle contortions the supreme court's been using these last years to rule in favour of unexamined hipsterism
assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 01:39:38; asciilifeform: or does it open ordinary sockets and expect
a tcp stack
assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 00:07:59; trinque: asciilifeform: the thought actually was... "so emacs is
a sort of masamune... lol!"
mircea_popescu: otherwise, women drinking themselves into beds has been
a mainstay of post-colonial british empire.
trinque: mircea_popescu: referring to the particular euphemism used around these parts to refer to the lifestyle where you get fucked up and fuck other dudes, and call it
a sexual orientation
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 22:51:33; trinque: danielpbarron: I don't recall ever encountering
a "polyamorist" who was not female\
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 22:49:55; danielpbarron: they're all into this whole "polyamory" thing which is
a just ephemism for mysandry
mircea_popescu: the cost to the enemy of any device is made out of
a real and
a perceived factor. these sometimes diverge. all radiation things diverge in the sense of perception overwhelming reality.
mircea_popescu: someone recently managed to close down
a 12 block section of wash dc by literally saying "i think i heard gunshots".
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 22:46:19; decimation: yeah, it might be visible, but the effort going into turning
a bomb into an 'aerosol delivery system' is probably wasted. Like ascii's point about chemical EMP bombs
mircea_popescu: in its own perverse way, it's
a leadership function. provides means for people to agree.
DanyAlos: But I supousse that if I speak spanish here nobody would get
a thing.
mod6: <+trinque> and hey, I got
a static bitcoind << nice!! i'll give this
a shot here tonight yet
assbot: Logged on 02-07-2015 18:19:46; ascii_field: trinque: this is more of
a 'reader' than 'writer' affair anyway
trinque: bout to give it
a run with gcov
trinque: and hey, I got
a static bitcoind
mircea_popescu: omfg fuck this shit. outsiders do not wish
a lever or care for one.
mod6: sometimes
a hair gets stuck in mine, and I have to pull it out.
mod6: and if that doesn't work, maybe I can give 'hardened/linux/musl/amd64' (i don't see
a non-hardened one available atm)
mircea_popescu: looky here :
a) mpex makes more money than the entire faux & pretend ecosyustem of coinbases and whatnot. those COST,
a shitton of money, for the services they fail to provide.
mod6: <+trinque> suggests it's maybe
a matter of the hardened toolchain eh? << yeah, i think this is
a clue
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla
a loss of 90% mining power relates to blocks taking
a little over an hour, not
a month.
trinque: suggests it's maybe
a matter of the hardened toolchain eh?
mod6: ty_v0' can not be used when making
a shared object; recompile with -fPIC ]
mod6: weird. that's basically the same problem i had with uClibC [ libpthread.
a(pthread_cond_wait.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `__gcc_personali
kakobrekla: having
a chain with
a gazillion difficulty and no to little miners on it
mircea_popescu:
a shining moment of "buying ibm gets you killed" is more valuable than asia.
kakobrekla: i cant have blockchain dead for
a month
mircea_popescu: the mass slaughter of
a large contingent of people who act as if "doing what everyone else does is safe", and who lose millions at it is the best thing that can happen.
mircea_popescu: as eulora tips say, "
a willingness to learn is not mandatory. neither is survival."
kakobrekla: my guess is most wont have
a second thought.
mircea_popescu: i imagine so would you :
a bankrupt field of miners best chance to buy cheap mining rigs for
a long time
mats: yes,
a model with 8mb and 20mb blocks would be interesting
mircea_popescu: i would expect
a stuttering engine to go on stuttering until discarded.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field get
a load of this : three days of random, odd internet behaviour, discussed here publicly, which then went away by itself. i did nothing to the server, i asssume neither did you.
mircea_popescu: i think i said this before, but in any case bears repeating insistently : larger blocks are
a complex discussion that will involve many and numerous benchmarking. it's not the simple matter idiots make it out.
mircea_popescu: impossible to discern how much is
a case of "the missionary used
a word to best describe what he saw" and "we have created
a structure through normal function". anyway, minor point.
decimation: "The main Luo livelihoods are fishing, farming and pastoral herding. Outside Luoland, the Luo comprise
a significant fraction of East Africa's intellectual and skilled labour force in various professions. Others members work in eastern Africa as tenant fishermen, small scale farmers, and urban workers."
decimation: so there's 'no meaningful difference' between igbo in nigeria and
a majang in ethiopia?
mircea_popescu: decimation gotta bear in mind that "ethnicity" is not
a thing, just
a word we use for the thing. it's
a map. that
a map is flat and
a place is round does not mean the round place has no geography
mircea_popescu: this isn't
a lego car where all the pieces match shinohai
mircea_popescu: for one thing, it's not clear what "ethnicity" without
a written culture would be.
shinohai: The WH lineup for 2016 is
a circus already.
mircea_popescu: mats i mean i could see it in usage like "e transilvanean de-ai nostri", ie, "he's one of ours". but that's for
a minuscule and very culturally coherent ethnic group.
mats: she may even be ready for
a presidential run in 2020
assbot: Successfully added
a rating of 1 for shinohai with note: New blood.
mircea_popescu: ah. just
a buncha stupid kids "trying" like the entire world were
a kindergarten and "best effort" were
a thing and really, we're just playing here.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field what is "the very important business"
a reddit chapter seeded and mostly fed by usg's own something awful crew would conceivably be doing iyo ?
assbot: Successfully added
a rating of 1 for shinohai with note: Helping to test the bitcoin Reference Implementation
phf: i was actually taking
a harder position, if somebody wants to follow along they should read the mailing list from the beginning, and having it all accessible in one place for offline reading helps
mod6:
a wise man told me once: life is short and art is long.
mod6: yah. we would certainly put all the patches applied to
a specific baseline into RELEASE_NOTES.txt as it was for v0.5.3.1
mod6: there are
a number of different directions these emails go in; patching for v0.5.3.1, pogotronic, gentoo, etc, etc. so I'll try my best to make this apparent when I write up
a patch list, etc.
mod6: so phf brings to light
a good point, reading through the email list, especially if you haven't read the b-
a logs from oct-14 on is probably more than
a bit hard to follow. ascii_field brings up
a good point about having
a 'family tree'
mod6: ascii_field: i did have
a problem with it
a number of days ago when I first tried it, but it was just an environment related issue. this build, I literally just did it, worked fine.
assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 20:09:32; trinque: ascii_field: got
a barf about fPIC in boost, which iirc is already known
ascii_field: but presently haven't the time to do
a proper job of it
ascii_field: last night i looked into doing
a 'buildroot' with it
mod6: i saw that comment yesterday, I briefly looked at it's page ascii_field, I'll take
a deeper look at musl soon. hopefully that'll get us further?
phf: jurov: i'm not in
a position to make suggestions to the way things are done in the republic :) i used patches.html, i found some issues with it from the perspective of figuring out what transpired before i started paying attention, so i did extra work on top. cura te ipsum. i figured having mailbox available will make the works of others after me easier
trinque: ascii_field: got
a barf about fPIC in boost, which iirc is already known
☟︎ ascii_field: it was meant to be
a picture of my (at the time) set
mats: ill bump it up to 0.25 to subsidize purchase of 1tb spinning disk or
a SSD
mats: no takers for 0.1BTC to pick up
a pogo so far huh
phf: ascii_field: having
a turnkey solution is not the intent behind my request (though i prefer tools in my mail client to messing around with lynx/wget.) i'm interested in having
a "take to mars" copy of bitcoind history. right now it's
a bit all over the place. patches here, email text there, etc.
phf: jurov: i only joined the conversation recently, so i don't have
a complete history of emails. of course i'm getting complete emails now, but not the past ones
ascii_field: the manual gymnastics on command line should be
a ~VANISHINGLY~ small fraction of your efforts
trinque: could refine that to "and then presents me
a buffer of the diff"
☟︎ assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 19:44:53; phf: mod6: well, lets say you have something like mutt open with the current email. it's pretty easy to write
a script that takes current email and feeds it to an external script, that splits out patch, verifies it with the provided sig, and then applies it to the codebase (or pushes it into some queue of patches as
a case may be). i.e. you read the email, push "p" to do everything for you, and then move on to the n
assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 18:49:20; mircea_popescu: ascii_field in practice this may not be
a problem. the gavincoin insanities aside, growing by 300 bytes every ten minutes may well be sustainable indefinitely into the future.
mod6: basically, instead of me making
a whole bunch of different one-off scripts for peoples seperate clients and whatever stack they've got, I just create one script that will patch in & verify all the scripts at once. usually after I've tried and tested them all myself, peronsally.
