mircea_popescu: (obviously because no protocol there is no actual definition of "mempool size" other than rough consensus, but wehartevers)
mircea_popescu: in any case, at the time this was discussed in the logs, the miner priority was in the 9th decile, about 16% of the global mempool.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yeah but for practical reasons doesn't also vary too much, or you get drowned.
mircea_popescu: if you recall kakobrekla at the time it was merely broadcast and "not yet included" (in the public version of the blockchain), it had a very low priority.
mircea_popescu: right. by this calculation, the tx in question would not have remained in your pool.
mircea_popescu: sturles if you keep 0fee txn without time limit, you are necessarily running on a machine with infinite ram.
mircea_popescu: you have enough trust, whenever you want to speak here you should pm assbot "!up" and decrypt the dpaste.
mircea_popescu: no argument that it ~could~ be a so and so node. all sorts of things could be all sorts of other things. like the moon landing photos could be fake, and so on.
mircea_popescu: who knew how fucking deep in the rules of the world this principle is baked
mircea_popescu: as usual - centralist power is the enemy of free commerce.
mircea_popescu: of course large payments remain a problem - not so many double digit btc moving around to an address with the following 4 chars.
mircea_popescu: as the commenter says, this does nothing for bitcoin, merely for bitbet.
mircea_popescu: and yes, publish a sha of the whole list as-is somewhere on page also. so people can then verify at tyhe end.
mircea_popescu: say paid out bets are published as now, but proposed bets only show first 4 chars of the address, and only first two digits of the payment. except if under 0.01 it's just replaced with D
mircea_popescu: listen kakobrekla can we modify the way bitbet works to actually satisfy this ? something like
mircea_popescu: so basically, yeah bla bla, miners can force "either doublepay or never pay" dilemma, but ~not on everyone~. only on derps who, like mp, actually publish the whole story.
mircea_popescu: no but on second pass this is actually correct, isn't it. ~I~ have been breaking the protocol with that design, indiscutably.
mircea_popescu: which one of you has the miserably poor taste of impersonating the dead woman ?
mircea_popescu: romanian school has a whole curricula in literature dedicated to making the kiddies cry. this is well and good and the ~only way.
mircea_popescu: let them cry into their fiction books like normal people.
mircea_popescu: ftr anacam was as close to driving culture as the times and potus aspire to be and occasionally manage.
mircea_popescu: jurov apparently it was already reported. kochmanski says 159 (fixed 16.1.2)
mircea_popescu: jurov dude you trolled me ? i mistook eul- to be a function defined in eulora space pinged DianaComan about it lmao
mircea_popescu: like it or not, the tendons won't give unless you get physical. you can talk yourself hoarse, it dun do anything.
mircea_popescu: chick's tougher than coffin nails, right in there with the she-marine. heck, they still use beatings to this day to loosen the girlies up.
mircea_popescu: jurov is it actually the js interpreter that takes up the bulk of that ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "you can have your own opinions, but we want to move from this situation where harvard & mit lied to you about you being smart enough to resolve any real word conondrum 'if you just got the facts [as officially branded facts by harvard and mit]'" to a much more economical "you can have your own opinions just as long as they're what we say they should be".
mircea_popescu: sort-of trying to chinese cartel the electoral process, pretty much.
mircea_popescu: you see jurov, google is next to useless for any purpose that involves having taken algebra II. all it can do is help you build empathy.
mircea_popescu: ;;google largest three items on chromium profile by ram
mircea_popescu: like in that joke with the drunk and the samovar. you know it ?
mircea_popescu: "Only mathematicians and some engineers actually use advanced math in their day-to-day work, Hacker argues—even the doctors, accountants, and coders of the future shouldn’t have to master abstract math that they’ll never need." [and could one day use to find out some unsavory facts about the best possible castle in the world!"
mircea_popescu: since you have the profiler right there (do you ?) mind sharing like, the top three things on the stack ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "It drives dropout rates and is mostly useless in real life. Andrew Hacker has a plan for getting rid of it." dude, seriously ?! "stem myth" ? that place is so set for greatness. and i mean greatness literally.
mircea_popescu: holy shit sherlock, hey BingoBoingo check out slashdot comprehending things!
mircea_popescu: i think that's how warrants etc are going to go from now on. deedbot ftw.
mircea_popescu: most gaming programmers are nerdy kids, hard to be motivated by males.
mircea_popescu: phf usually "women in gaming" is a supercharged "women in javascript" thing. very politically driven drivel.
mircea_popescu: every farm hottie in the mud envies the old lady her complex undergarments. blessfully unaware that the old lady needs the complex undergarments to mask the fact that there's no activity they'd get in the way of.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> why - i do not know. <<it's the human love of variety. ends up making contrived shit seem appealing, especially to women (and castrated men, such as intellectuals and bureaucrats - which, by the way, are about the same thing)
mircea_popescu: phf> lunix on desktop! women in javascript! ubuntu! << you know eulora is pretty much 100% woman-made.
mircea_popescu: with tools like these, who needs a horde of stampeding bulls on ecstasy.
mircea_popescu: trinque> so then they all hit the same bug and chew their blockchains at once << no because heterogenous :D
mircea_popescu: but yes, what trinque said is a very useful protective measure.
