phf: mircea_popescu: but his argument doesn't indicate how pneumonia is a disease. "you will die from pneumonia" taken in isolation doesn't indicate "how soon", etc.
a111: Logged on 2018-01-18 20:11 mircea_popescu: and all this goes right into that older thread of ambiguity, orthogonality and language -- you can never make a language that's orthogonal and ~useful~ in the natural sense. let alone "that anyone'd want to use".
phf: mircea_popescu: it was more of a tongue in cheek, since i think that asciilifeform is tediously relentless on this particular point
asciilifeform: i've prolly signed a #ifdef DEC_PDP11 piece of shit at some point. dun mean it ain't a sin.
a111: Logged on 2016-01-03 03:48 mircea_popescu: <ascii_rear> static, de-#ifdef'd, etc. <<< that's pretty cvool actually.
phf: but where this subthread started "_outside of linux/bsd_ code is probably not going to work, and the approach is to look at the configuration header file and patch it _for your system_
phf: PeterL: the approach that we've been taking with legacy C code is pulling out autotools, and replacing with a single #ifdef/.. configuration header. outside of linux/bsd code is probably not going to work, and the approach is to look at the configuration header file (http://btcbase.org/patches/vdiff_sha_static/tree/vtools/src/system.h#L145 in case of vtools) and patch it for your system ☟︎
PeterL: is the token SWAP_BE64 something that you don't have to define on good systems?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: do the inca ( err, the classical ones, in south a. ) have analogous enzyme for coca ?
asciilifeform: ( speaking of which... anybody hear from gabriel_laddel lately ..? )

asciilifeform: this just gets lulzier, 'Porras and Vue then laundered the Bitcoin proceeds of their drug distribution through the HSI undercover agent located in New York' << hey mircea_popescu didja know that btc had to be 'laundered' ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: That could be a thing in the future
PeterL: I got the files from http://btcbase.org/patches/vdiff_sha_static
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: They've had versions already including living with the parents until the parents croak and the ghetto pensions which appear to be a Latino implementation of the traditional English "bedsit"
a111: Logged on 2018-06-27 00:12 mircea_popescu: meanwhile in the ongoin glulz, Biology-Babe 19F sub "I may be submissive by kink, but I am an strong independent women." LordMPofTMSR "Everyone thinks so." Biology-Babe "Jesus Christ. Fucking respect me you misogynistic douche" LordMPofTMSR "Nah."
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 21:20 hanbot: mircea_popescu by design apple exists to try and make you use its thing, whether it's some itam or some os or some cable, and it'll make things maximally unpleasant for anyone not on the bandwagon, at any point where the nonapple and the apple touch.
mircea_popescu: diana_coman has the whole list if you're curious.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: what was 'googletest' ?
ben_vulpes: if mircea_popescu would spare a lecture on the notion, ex the usg gassing constraint, i would read intently.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: the 'shartupists' are agents of usg crown in good standing.
asciilifeform assumed that ben_vulpes simply duncare re moving up in the gassing queue
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: probably the jooblocker
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes well yes, you happen be raising children in a jurisdiction which has decided "issue fiat bonds" is a crown monolpoly.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 02:26 mod6: thanks for the script mircea_popescu!
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes you mean, besides it being illegal ?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i'll be the 1st to point out that this puzzler is out of asciilifeform's depth, lessee what mircea_popescu thinks
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 21:43 mircea_popescu: a more even split makes the "solar winds" 0-delta.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 21:21 mircea_popescu: besides, i betcha she's on some droid thing, rather than apple specifically.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829972 << pnojeism is a much larger problem than merely crapple, and is really an entire constellation of dysfunctions enabled not by the turdalicious gadgets themselves but, as iirc mircea_popescu pointed out repeatedly, by issuing pseudo-comps to folx who ought to be operating plows and oxcarts fulltime ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2018-06-13 21:37 mircea_popescu: what, and turn it into a financial speculator ? usually firms go that way after making so much revenue they run out of capital goods they might buy
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: see also thread http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-13#1825172 ☝︎
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: as i understand, we're a ~bitcoin~ isp, not a usd isp...
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> BingoBoingo: can you buy amazon gift cards for cash in uruguay? << I can look. Since people tend to do Amazon through intermediaries here I don't suspect there's much of a market for the gift cards.
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 19:54 mircea_popescu: asciilifeform in further lulz : it's classified under... LUMBER
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: possibly stupid notion i had last night i'd like to float for your cfo-ly advice: with the exchange rate in the shitter, and the clear and present demand for fiat-denominated assets, how bad of an idea would it be to sell usd-denominated bonds? mod6 and asciilifeform thoughts also pls
ben_vulpes: https://www.behance.net/gallery/66684621/Ural-Amazon << perhaps a candidate for mircea_popescu 's artist hunt
mircea_popescu: iphone os 11_3 ok, you got it, crapple.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: right. ( keep in mind, currently asciilifeform knows very little re subj, aside from diana_coman's mpi works )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: sounds like spiffy idea. ( all we'd need, is to restock, currently we're all sold )
asciilifeform: i'm partial to the cut where the signing device only needs a few kb of storage. ( no. 1 in mircea_popescu's taxonomy )
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 20:27 mircea_popescu: come to think of it, why am i even having "a wallet", as opposed to say a rsa'd privkey list.
asciilifeform: lol diana_coman neato
asciilifeform: ideally it'd be a mircea_popescu spec.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: almost entirely unrelatedly, didja ever have a 'iron wallets spec' article ? asciilifeform had a notion that there was one, and dug in the l0gz, found ~0
ben_vulpes: manifest.txt $hash_prev $hash_curr ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: in the classical v, you gotta touch the old filez to weld your new patch onto the ancestor-tree that you want
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:26 trinque: ben_vulpes: because the manifest has no antecedent, and you're gonna have to go graffiti other files like an idiot
asciilifeform at one time was quite invested in the notion of 'v format static 4evah' but mircea_popescu convincingly demonstrated that this is dumb
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: imho 'ablations' where you can pin down the continuity with e.g. 5line of perlade , aren't much of a problem
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-26#1829660 << you could just add the manifest in a patch, like diana_coman did for eucrypt. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes this is different from "i got mired in finding unspent outputs" ?
a111: Logged on 2017-05-14 05:03 ben_vulpes: on an eeeentiiiiirely different topic, it took months but i recently got the part of my output indexer that excises spent outputs from the index map to compile, which i believe brings the indexer part of this foray to completion. i invite any who'd like to read and comment to download the (unsigned!) vpatch from here cascadianhacker.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/export_outputs.vpatch

asciilifeform: this was variously reviewed in mircea_popescu's essays, summing up to 'modern folx can barely be arsed to do anyffing at all, not even rape & pillage, it aint easy to make'em get out of bed'
a111: Logged on 2018-06-26 17:02 ben_vulpes: heh, last time i took a crack at *that* i got mired in finding unspent outputs with trb
mircea_popescu: turns out that http://trilema.com/2016/consumerism-is-not-the-answer-though-it-will-put-you-to-sleep-or-american-history-x/#footnote_4_65947 was pretty fucking prophetic
asciilifeform: ( granted, mircea_popescu is a very http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-22#1630779 sort of fella, prolly gives somewhere below a nanoshit ) ☝︎

trinque: ben_vulpes: got it; yeah, I'd say if it gets bolted on, inside the makefiles patch is a sensible place
trinque: ben_vulpes: because the manifest has no antecedent, and you're gonna have to go graffiti other files like an idiot ☟︎
mod6: ben_vulpes: im trying to look at the big picture. the manifest spec is a part of that, ya.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: at one time i tried to implement more or less same item you're making, and did the shiva thing, and in the end thought that whoever it was ( mircea_popescu ? ) who suggested that trb should simply eat ( and prompt to sign ) raw tx, generated externally via scripts, was right
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: possibly
a111: Logged on 2015-03-23 21:11 mircea_popescu: if i want to make a txn that's 1mb, i do.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: see e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2015-03-23#1065769 ☝︎
mimisbrunnr: Logged on 2018-06-26 02:33 ben_vulpes: i'm not familiar with the design imperative driving the individual transaction size limitation, is there a reason to keep an individual from making a 1mb transaction if they'd like to?\

asciilifeform: if it happens that the crown j00lz end up within reach of mircea_popescu's black bags, the top prize, ftr, is key #0
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: initially i thought it was possibly one of their 'dev keys', where the privs were at various points checked into their shithub ( since 'deleted' but unsurprisingly still visible with a small spot of work )
asciilifeform: btw typo, 'also_keyid' etc is incorrect name, really it is a ptr to the modulus
a111: Logged on 2018-06-25 20:19 diana_coman set up The Incredible Machine dos-version even for said child and he's totally hooked

PeterL: mircea_popescu: there is a link between the solubility of carbonates and temperature, what is wrong with their statement?
mircea_popescu: people like to imagine "being civilised" == "participating" on social media, because it's fucking easy. but no, being civilised is ~strictly~ things like http://termopane.termopanejaluzele.ro/termopane-img/termopane-31.jpg and https://www.afacerist.ro/dbp/poze3_cautari/500/a/centrala_termica_73106.jpg and www.ceramicacielo.com/image/wc-bidet_3h.jpg and so on.
