mod6: <+asciilifeform> anybody build that thing ? << i did try to build your "stator" tarball from lastnight. i provisioned a new deb6 with glibc/gcc-4.5.4, had some issues, never was able to build whole orchestra. I think its perhaps system related.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel the notion that one can educate outside of a sexual context is not unlike the notion that one can write code without reading any.
assbot: "Parody" is not there for you cancerous fags to try and hide your cancer behind it. on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1C0c4Ym )
gabriel_laddel: And the probably also the straight(?) mathematican I had a conversation with last weekend.
mircea_popescu: that'd be a problem of poor sight.

asciilifeform: 'listen maggots, in six weeks come back with a basic unix'
asciilifeform: the better schools use a kind of 'riker's island' approach anyway

mircea_popescu: http://thefederalist.com/2015/06/08/how-to-escape-the-age-of-mass-delusion/ << not a bad read actually.
mircea_popescu: a) you can't educate "a class". individuals only ; b) you can't educate people you don't, most intimately, know ; c) there's no education outside of the educated's choice.

mircea_popescu: sort of, everyone's a checkpoint manager.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-06-2015#1180705 << no need to be suicidally brave. what it does is, "people's checkpoints". as in, anyone may run a bitcoin with a chain starting with an arbitrary block. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 29-06-2015 00:50:35; mats: i'd be happy to share a few bits to encourage folks to get one
decimation: "It?s as though Americans are buying into a fast-talking sales pitch without being allowed to read the print, whether it?s large print or small."
trinque: maybe that's one I tried a while back in kvm
asciilifeform: but there is a time and place for it
asciilifeform: because it sorta defeats the whole point of a p2p gizmo

asciilifeform: trinque: i'm sitting on a stack of those
assbot: Logged on 29-06-2015 01:09:31; trinque: I want to simply publish the fact "I want to buy a macivory" and have anyone selling one be able to find that out

punkman: ...and banks closed for a week, maybe.
mircea_popescu: what's needed is a fucking ISCS. the intellectual state of computer science.
mircea_popescu: just biding their time, waiting for a good opportunity, honest! wanted to do maximum damage, and as we all know, ~MAXIMUM~ damage is always in the future.
mircea_popescu: "You don't have to boot frmo the CDROM. And if you need a router you have a network and therefore can connect to another machine."
decimation: yeah that's a good idea
mircea_popescu: and i did add the wood clippings, ie, me cutting off an apple and a pear tree into shape over a coupla years, after having been neglected for 5ish
decimation: that's a good idea
mircea_popescu: ideally you start it with a good offering of herbivore droppings.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if enemy action indeed rather than the net being a ruinous ball of yarn - they were probably fuzzing for various protocol boojums
decimation: asciilifeform: what about connecting something to a running bitcoind, siphoning off blocks as they are 'validated'?
asciilifeform: other thing, that will have to be added, imho, asap, is a non-retarded version of 'connect'
assbot: Logged on 28-06-2015 18:10:04; ben_vulpes: dun think the thing has a formal name yet. but that which is responsible for grading peers while syncing.

mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=28-06-2015#1180407 << this is actually a very beautiful idea. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: "The exchange sheds further light on the latest work" << yeah. it sheds the following light : "work" by these wankers consists these days of outputting random strings from pre-made texts and trying to do a cute seleciton thereof.
mircea_popescu: <chetty> is it just me or does that machine sound a bit like mp? << o.O
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> linux ecosystem was drepperized so long ago that scarcely anyone remembers. << kinda why everyone is reacting with so much disbelief at the sudden "this is not acceptable". they had been doing it forever, gavin as a marginally retarded peripheral agent of the idiocy got totally blindsided by an armed insurection. that we'd pursue it is i suppose plainly unthinkable, the sort of thing the rmcgraths of th
mircea_popescu: and i base myself on the fact that they worked pretty well in practice until the new generation of "reformist" idiots got involved, and put 'locale' as a concept in c.
decimation: well, as we have discussed here before, the whole idea of shared libraries is kind of a fucktarded version of 'global namespaces'
mircea_popescu: it's like a religion.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform gets a confirmed kill https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-hacker/1999-08/msg00050.html drepper's the enemy.
mircea_popescu: in other news, i propose a petition to have the "Child Porn" utility removed from linux. why is not MauVe enough ?
mircea_popescu: your average adolescent male does not own a shirt. the female he'd be interested in dreams about waiting for "the right saudi prince".
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> and it still runs in 'bursts.' << this is a very strange behaviour. what's 193k, like 3-5% ?
decimation: the cord is a little annoying but lack of co coming from exhaust is worthwhile
asciilifeform: mats: l0l, a new 'the onion'
asciilifeform: 'few bastards' is not a criterion while we're using the classical sync mechanism;
ben_vulpes: and if thbox serves at a high bandwidth few bastards and blocks that all verify, why not prefer it over others?
asciilifeform: for all i know, i'm syncing from a stooge box planted only a few miles away at my isp
ben_vulpes: dun think the thing has a formal name yet. but that which is responsible for grading peers while syncing. ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: if you wanna perform a heroid deed, find out how to nuke gconv
ben_vulpes: i would actually be *surprised* if you did produce the same disk bytes via a network cslurping
asciilifeform: hence why we need a mechanism to actually checksum the blocks and dump it to a man-readable form
asciilifeform is not ~at all~ certain that he is actually pulling from mircea_popescu's box, rather than a preet's
asciilifeform is coming to think that we will be needing a mechanism for out-of-band (hashes, pgp) comparison of blockchains
asciilifeform: ;;later tell BingoBoingo in your gardening, have you ever used a 19th c.-style muscle-powered grass cutter? i did today, and noticed that it is actually less exhausting than petrol-powered variety on account of my not breathing CO from tailpipe
asciilifeform: '...The exchange sheds further light on the latest work carried out by large technology firms in the field of artificial intelligence, a booming field...' << apparently today is still 1966, weizenbaum's 'eliza' is 'latest work'
chetty: is it just me or does that machine sound a bit like mp?
asciilifeform: that thing is a ready, lubricated orifice for slithering vermin
assbot: Logged on 28-06-2015 05:26:58; mircea_popescu: also, kernel is a good idea maybe for pogo. not for a proper server. you want people to add it to all their noncritical dedis.
asciilifeform: in particular, 'in a sense, Windows is a result of the way C++ builds environments, like Unix is a result of how C does it.'

asciilifeform: 'BLM Special Agent Dan Love of Salt Lake City was cited multiple times as the person behind many of the BLM requests, according to the emails. Love will have a personal bathroom trailer to be shared with only one other official, according to documents.
