mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=31-05-2015#1148837 << i would like to see a patch which maintains VALUED list of other nodes. ☝︎☟︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 30-05-2015 23:09:48; funkenstein_: if you was a dwarf i would send thanks by sending my daughters over
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-05-2015#1148782 << there is a possibility that your daughters may have foond their way by themselves, especially if they be tall dwarvettes. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: which is a sad state of affairs given the history of new york
cazalla: and the poor bastards just needed a bit of room for their balls
mircea_popescu: by now everyone's a gang of one.
chetty: jeeze next they will arrest folks for taking up too much space cause they are fat ..hmm maybe not such a bad idea :P
mircea_popescu: apparently ny has a major problem with gangs.
BingoBoingo: https://imgur.com/a/nJJCU/noscript
decimation: so I don't understand how you could identify a particular 'bastard block' message as coming from a particular node without added debug statements
decimation: but looking at my iptraf monitor, there are several nodes connected at once, and traffic seems to originate from a particular node in a somewhat random way
decimation: asciilifeform: what confuses me is that the processblock messages absolutely come from a particular node
assbot: 22 results for 'MFC' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=MFC
asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu the next screamingly obvious step is to catalogue 'liar keys' - the most interesting species of which consists of keys where the claimed fingerprint stored with a modulus differs from the recomputed (by us) fingerprint. as per http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880#section-12.2
decimation: it's amusing that satoshi re-implemented MFC classes in his little util.* stuff. he was definitely a winblows VC++ guy ☟︎
decimation: in fact now I see no bastards. let me look and see if I can point fingers at a particular node
decimation: I don't have a firewall port open, so everything has to be outgoing
asciilifeform: ought to be watching it, if running a node
asciilifeform: (one of my early, unreleased experiments had a disconnector that tripped when we learn that the node we're syncing from is spewing orphans above threshold. perhaps time to bring this back ?) ☟︎☟︎
decimation: no it moves, but at a slower rate, maybe one block per 10-60 seconds
asciilifeform: or fails to move for a day straight ?
BingoBoingo: Cats killing people would be a plus.
cazalla: give it a bowl of anti freeze
BingoBoingo: Ah, just figured with the drama and lulz recently people would be moving any spare fiat into Bitcoin. Drama is the closest thing Bitcoin has to a price signal.
BingoBoingo: williamdunne: Yeah, there's a link to a pdf of it somewhere in here
BingoBoingo: williamdunne: Another usefull asciilifeform suggested reading is 'Wasp' I think it was our book club book a bit before you arrived
williamdunne: I'll give it a shot, thanks
thestringpuller: but alf was never a pizza delivery guy so he can't relate.
funkenstein_: but you'd have to escrow a tidy sum to allay my fears they come back shaven
funkenstein_: if you was a dwarf i would send thanks by sending my daughters over ☟︎
BingoBoingo: felipelalli: It is a great movie for people who need perspective on their higher education experiences
trinque: this clim model where the UI doodads map directly onto data structures, and the whole thing's practically speaking a REPL with graphics capabilities... I love it
trinque will play with sbcl and mcclim instead, and see if he can build a back-yard nuke
asciilifeform: if you have a spare 5-10k usd, can go play.
trinque: as a nascent lisper, I run into so many 404s, or if lucky abandoned repositories
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i'm a bit fuzzy on the rules of the game, but that's the fella who doesn't do any running, no ?
mircea_popescu: eh, in their case it'd be a relevancy gain
assbot: 2 results for 'bitcoinxt' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=bitcoinxt
felipelalli: He says Bitcoin has a "fake scarcity" because there are shitcoins in the market! lol
mircea_popescu: he has a superficial understanding of some issues about at the level of a waiter overhearing a something awful buttcoin center meeting.
assbot: 25 results for 'gallium' : http://s.b-a.link/?q=gallium
felipelalli: asciilifeform: he is a Computer Science professor, but he is a communist. He think makes no sense to invest into Bitcoin.
felipelalli: stolfi is a Brazilian very known bitcoin hater.
asciilifeform rather happy that no one ever wrote a pediwankia page about -him-
mircea_popescu: and moreover, blowing a hole the size of their head in their arse is fun.
mircea_popescu: but the fetlife thing, for instance, is certainly intended as a standard.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what "the thing is worth" is a complex issue << let's put it this way. my crops are worth more to me burned than given to kolhoz.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: ... post it here, turn it into a weapon << as mircea_popescu well knows, weapons do not fight by themselves. (outside of norse legend)
mircea_popescu: but what "the thing is worth" is a complex issue.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the alternative is, post it here, turn it into a weapon against the idiots that be.
mod6: yeah, used a lot of b/w, but also was running up to 3 different m3.mediums at some points.
mod6: ok, drove all over timbuktu and got a rebuilt pos box to test out this gentoo stuff.
jurov: http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2014/02/i-crashed-a-wall-street-secret-society.html?mid=facebook_nymag
assbot: Logged on 22-03-2015 16:53:09; assbot: Logged on 06-03-2015 03:29:02; mircea_popescu: making money is a purely ~political~ function. if you are among the favoured elite of the respublica veneta, you then may invest in the ships, and make a profit. if not, not.
asciilifeform: a select few have the meatwot to actually profit.
asciilifeform: where folks sweat and kill themselves with digging for free, in hopes of getting a few crumbs from the master's table.
asciilifeform: back to the 0day thing - it is what is known as a 'tournament market.'
asciilifeform: think of it this way (possibly paraphrasing old thread.) imagine you discovered a cache of plutonium bricks in your back yard. (rtg in space probe fell apart?) would you let them go to a scrap dealer for 100 usd each? knowing that they are worth millions, and at the same time risking your arse by revealing that you ever had them to begin with? or would you say 'fuck you' and dig a deeper hole? ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 30-05-2015 15:05:18; williamdunne: A lot of companies give out hefty bug bounties, in fairness
asciilifeform: and this is likely true for most folks who have even a passing interest in reversing
asciilifeform: hell, i'm personally sitting on a stash of 0days that i can't do anything practical with. ☟︎
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-05-2015#1148596 << except that they approximately don't exist. average schmuck knows of nothing like a reasonably safe way to monetize an 0day ☝︎
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-05-2015#1148595 << actually i suspect i know why. they want to eat. (there is still a misguided notion floating around that 'disclosure' can get you hired as 'seekoority' business) ☝︎
asciilifeform: 'give war a chance' (TM) (R)
asciilifeform: 'The unpleasant part is a guy from Starbucks calling me with nothing like “thanks” but mentioning “fraud” and “malicious actions” instead. Sweet!' << moral: sell it to spammers next time. for btc.
assbot: Logged on 30-05-2015 12:02:42; mircea_popescu: but be nice. if there's a woman that earned the right to be treated well, stoya's it.
assbot: Logged on 30-05-2015 10:28:18; mircea_popescu: that's the natural distribution in a 2 million strong society : 10k blokes with a harem averaging high 80s headcounts, 140k blokes double-tagging 60k hos and the rest watching the previous on instagram.
asciilifeform: jurov: the article specifically mentioned that the server runs continuously, but the house thermostat controls a selectable vent to the street (hence must be installed on an outer wall)
mod6: <+asciilifeform> for example, anyone try a uclibc build yet ? << I was planning to test this on the gentoo box that I built, but it was AWS. I'm going to be picking up a cheap box this weekend to finish up the gentoo guide & then test how it compiles with uclibc afterward. I'm putting in a line about it in the SoBA this month.

mircea_popescu: respect is earned, at the point of a pointed stick.
mircea_popescu: force them to have someone on 24/7 with a valid gpg sign, the works.
mircea_popescu: punkman in any case, chasing around these idiots trying to help them is a stupid idea.
mircea_popescu would like to see a pink wv beetle with an avenger gun mounted.
assbot: Logged on 30-05-2015 06:10:25; pete_dushenski: "A group of bikers will hold a Muhammad cartoon-drawing contest outside a Phoenix-area mosque on Friday and they've been told to come armed in case of a "much-anticipated attack."" << inb4 the cops blame the mosque for starting the ensuing shoot-out
mircea_popescu: but be nice. if there's a woman that earned the right to be treated well, stoya's it. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: incidentally re https://twitter.com/stoya/status/604010790950150144 BingoBoingo danielpbarron or anyone still having a shitter acct : tell the girl i'm giving her 1 bitcoin and help her collect ?
mircea_popescu: pick a country and i'll tell you at least one example.
mircea_popescu: china had a generation of failures that got kicked out in the 30s, that's what the entire revolution was about. china actually has lots of these.
mircea_popescu: russia and central europe had a generation of failures that got kicked out in the 90s.
cazalla: it's sorta agreed there that this might be the first generation which is more of a pussy than the last
cazalla: yes i remember a trilema article along the lines of this
mircea_popescu: cazalla well the idea of community based on geographic proximity / random accident like that is certainly taken a beating on account of the internets. used to be you had a shot at random neighouring cunt just on the grounds of being neighbouring, at some point.
cazalla: in the suburbs just outside the city there is none of that and the idea that you know who lives around you is a foreign idea to everyone i've met down here
cazalla: my problem with immigrants is that i grew up knowing my neighbours, my community, it was homogeneous and everyone knew everyone (also was a small town)
mircea_popescu: i personally care a lot more about the fact that there are no movies/bands/anything worth going to see
mircea_popescu: i suspect for a while yet the only real social cohesion to be head will be in mmorpg raiding parties.
mircea_popescu: that's the natural distribution in a 2 million strong society : 10k blokes with a harem averaging high 80s headcounts, 140k blokes double-tagging 60k hos and the rest watching the previous on instagram. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: the question of "what exactly is so speshul about joe doe that he should live other than in a hovel like random nigerian" is paramount, and none of the anti-imigration types seem inclined to address it.
mircea_popescu: as a result, it collapsed, and as a result there is absolutely no reason they should make more than a dollar a day.
mircea_popescu: anyway i suspect there isn't a way out. historically, the "civilised world" was rich and powerful because it enjoyed a monopoly on trade, built out of scientific and military effort. the twerps in question, joe average, decided to quit supporting the industrial-military complex (chiefly because they got burned twice in 16-18 and then in 39-44, and it hurt badly, esp the 2nd time, and so it's understandable)
cazalla: don't get me wrong.. i like the idea of a strong family unit.. but i also like the idea of loose whores provided the strong family doesn't find out
mircea_popescu: (actually, there IS a trend of angry older men trying to make these issues about "whores", but general social discourse's keeping them well repressed atm)
cazalla: i just see my own anecdotes mirrored there.. grew up in a homogeneous society where everywhere knew everyone.. 25 years later that is no longer the case
mircea_popescu: this is by no means a novel point, or all that aptly expressed there, is it ?
cazalla: well i guess the multi-culti immigration might be a start, not that i mind immigrants but i think they are somewhat right in that it undermines social trust in a community
cazalla: 5 might be a little tough
mircea_popescu: if you feel like giving me a top 5 or whatever most relevant ideas coming out of /pol/ i'd read it.
