williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Its definitely an interesting job, and if its
a paying job I have the time. So yes
trinque: if nobody's done it in
a couple years, I'd love to take on
a hosting biz on other shores
mircea_popescu: williamdunne so in the light of
a new day, does the bsdm social media thing actualy look worth doing to you ?
trinque: mircea_popescu: it's
a feature for their biggest customer
Naphex: trinque: i guess, as i see they use xen. imho letting xen guests define the kernel is
a sure way of suffering when they manage to break out of the hypervisor :P
mircea_popescu: and diversified enough that the arabs can-t quite outright kill him. (tho they're trying). i tell you this is
a fun thing toi watch, for me.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: musk's got
a good handle on the battery safety thing. d'you recall the trumpeting over how his cell design nukes cascading failures when the Boeing batteries caught on fire midair?
mircea_popescu: mod6 Naphex prolly has
a point in that if you actually switch out the kernel on an aws... well they basically lost it. how's their hypervisors etc to work
mod6: ok, so setup
a chroot environment, and run everything in the chroot?
mod6: I'm probably just dumb. How can I setup an instance with
a clean stage3. All I see that are available are AMI's. And I'm worried that they've got things/tools pre-installed that I don't want to have in there. This instance will be
a build/testing server for R.I. development.
Naphex: mod6: unpack
a stage3 and chroot it. set it up
Naphex: mod6: why not just kill most of the stuff running on the AMI and do
a chroot and set that up
mod6: Is it at all possibru to set up the instance with
a Gentoo AMI, and then use it as
a shim to somehow re-load with
a clean stage3?
mod6: So, before I go off in another direction, I guess I should ask if anyone knows how to get
a gentoo stage3 running on an AWS instance. Previously, when testing v0.5.3.1-RELEASE on an AWS instance I used
a pre-build/configured AMI that are available; which leads me to believe why I probably got some slightly different results from others who had used
a roll-your-own gentoo with stage3.
mircea_popescu: "battery-based energy storage for residential and commercial customers. The batteries power up overnight when energy companies typically charge less for electricity, then are used during the day to power
a home." << theres just no way this is cost effective.
assbot: Logged on 25-04-2015 14:02:19; asciilifeform: the java stack per se - entirely ignoring the language (which is an instrument of torture) is
a pernicious enough thing that i do not allow it on any metal under my control which matters
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: So what are these Pogos? I had
a look for them but I found some cloud backup company who didn't even advertise
a pogo plug as far as I could see
ben_vulpes: this was
a conscious decision at one point
danielpbarron: They can be controlled with
a Web app and
a smartphone app. << what could go wrong?
williamdunne: The way I was planning it was that the core is just
a simple limit/market job, and then the handlers do all of the things like checking balances before passing anything to the book itself
Naphex: an order should have
a timestamp, side, quantity, and price if it has
a limit
Naphex: atleast get
a unique id or something and use that instead of time:p
Naphex: williamdunne: well, you can't have dup data so you need
a unique field. Price will have duplicated data :P
Naphex: williamdunne: you do that with
a map and binary insert with
a Price-Time Priority comparator
Naphex: williamdunne: what you should be doing is just using
a regular map, and doing binary insert into it
williamdunne: Naphex: I'll have
a dig. I'm currently trying to find an efficient way to send messages between some order parsers and the matching engine itself
Naphex: 13:59 <+Naphex> williamdunne: seems like
a lot of needless complexity, just use
a map with random access(if you need it) and the new stream api's. should be enough performance increase. pre-alloc the memory for the map first if arraycopy is bringing the performance down.

williamdunne: danielpbarron: Got some private investment on it, did
a soft-launch, found what I did wrong, and now working on
a complete overhaul which should be pretty awesome
williamdunne: Its on
a computer that hasn't touched the internet in
a while so not worth the effort of moving it
danielpbarron: i copied the data dir from
a 0.7.2 node and the foundation's pre-0.5.3.1 loaded it fine and is now adding blocks to it
danielpbarron: height=334315 vs height=353419 (note that the 2nd value is now greater. I have copied data dir from
a full node)
decimation: where else are you gonna find
a guy with experience flying under fire in 'nam
blacktower: hello hello! just learning all of this, won't derp it up. glad to be
a part of the community!
mircea_popescu: linked for "Slimy folks like “Busta Troll” are hijacking Facebook pages of conservatives, replacing the content with goats and anti-conservative messages. Some believe
a goat is used because it is
a Satanic symbol; many of the conservatives are targeted because of their Christian or Jewish views."
mircea_popescu: i do have some acct manager ppl who are technically bank clerks that i contact via pgp, which is
a greast improvemnent over phone and i have nfi how they get into the systems
Pierre_Rochard: mircea_popescu: here’s
a joke for you - I run
a WinXP 32 bit VM so that I can use 32 bit IE8 so that I can access online bank
Pierre_Rochard: ^ I’m surprised it’s not
a bigger attack vector for online banking hijacks (or is it? unfamiliar with ~ cyber crime ~)
mircea_popescu: schmucks can just keep
a copy of yest's js and DIFF IT!!11
Pierre_Rochard: it covers everything outside the overton window, with
a good dose of humor and absurdity to boot
Adlai would be quite curious to see the mining cartel attempt to corner down
a less-than-1mb blocksize, primarily because it would be Actually Good News™
mircea_popescu: and rarely if at all with
a woman neither in
a robe nor altogether disrobed.
mircea_popescu: yeah well, i'm not such
a great fan of "competitive" humans.
mircea_popescu: they made me play with
a very prepubescent 11 yo girl.
mircea_popescu very naively went to
a go friendly tournament in timisoara once, not realising that... kids.
mircea_popescu: all sorts of things can end up in. like,
a can's worth of peas.
mircea_popescu: the last time i played
a board game i was 8, and it was "nu te supara frate". alf, did you have this ? you must've.
BingoBoingo: williamdunne: The reddit police tried to impound this place with
a Denial of Service bot, hard to tell if they will be back
mircea_popescu: C. "I’ve got
a habit of fucking my bosses too. They’re in
a position of power over me, and for at least part of the day they’re my owners, so they should be able to reap the benefits of that."
mircea_popescu:
A. "In some ways, one could argue that our boss fills some roles of the man we are in
a relationship with. He supports us financially, ensures we have
a safe place to live, and has to accommodate our emotional instability in the work place. Is it really all that unfair of him to expect to enjoy some of the perks of being in
a relationship with us, if he so chooses?"
mircea_popescu: for one thing,
a small fraction of swift movements are ~actual~ settlement transactions.
mircea_popescu: nobody can take it seriously with derps
a la gavin, luke, hearn & co involved.
mircea_popescu: mike_c : Num Ratings, Average Rating, Average Rating (Magnitude) can get
a tooltip definition/explanation ?
mircea_popescu: silver being
a fine example if one is superficial enough to only look at one example.
Pierre_Rochard: only need
a swat team to raid
a btc<->fiat exchange, they have
a few
Pierre_Rochard: well I’m
a gaullist, I tend to respect sovereignties as
a matter of realpolitik
mircea_popescu: stuff like "herp, polyanna boring printed herself
a princess crown".
mircea_popescu: so wait, they seriously expect
a claim in the trademarks of everyone selling through them ?!
trinque: seems like uploading
a png is providing content yeah
trinque: like if you upload
a logo to your payment page, you don't own that logo?
trinque: where do they have
a place to post content?
