asciilifeform: i wouldn't bother arguing the udp/tcp point were it not for the fact that this is not a decision that can be easily re-visited.
asciilifeform: i like 'unscannable for', not because of any derping re: 'anonymity', but from sheer delight in the morale hit to enemy
asciilifeform: artifexd: i was trying to suggest another way whereby no packet needs to exceed udp's mtu in size, or be guaranteed to reach its destination in the first try
artifexd: Fountain codes, insomuch as I don't understand them, complicate the design. Padding the the structure that gets encrypted doesn't.
mircea_popescu: no, i shan't live by any entities' permission. the state will live by my permission, or go down in a hail of bullets and flame thrower exhaust.
mircea_popescu: artifexd more's the point, i don't specifically give a shit about "analysis"
artifexd: I fear that the more complicated the math, the more likely I am to screw it up.

asciilifeform: i vaguely recall reading his obituary ?
mircea_popescu: i thought about it for a while, but fundamentally, wot has a lot of trouble existing independent of the forum.
asciilifeform: there's also the interesting fact (i shall offer no attempt at proof here) that a significant chunk of fleanode traffic is botnet c&c
mircea_popescu: i don't expect "the freenode folks" have technically very much at their disposal. this is the thing, frozen since the days lilo walked the earth.
kakobrekla: i dont care enough to check the logs.
kakobrekla: lol only now i notice, http://shrani.si/f/47/q8/C6Jp4Tl/cpu-day.png
asciilifeform: muh_buttcoins: i'm genuinely curious as to why you would like to learn the answer to that question

akisora: I don't understand what is going on with that
jurov: i see. so you are certain these entities are mostly motivated by profit.
mircea_popescu: jurov "we". i kinda do.

asciilifeform: kakobrekla: there are folks about (some even in #b-a) who have a habit of using something other than an actual computer for their daily work (i won't point fingers)
akisora: I can't auth on gribble. Not that I have any ratings
akisora: Thanks. I was wondering how things worked here since gribble is offline

artifexd: asciilifeform: I was typing up that exact same idea
mircea_popescu: show teh us how dumping's actually done. what, dja have any idea how long i pined for an opportuniy to play the easy side of this game ?

mircea_popescu: i kinda doubt they actually have the guts to go through with it,
mircea_popescu: (i don't mean technically, i mean financially, nobody's accepting it for value)
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i argue that all transmissions must be signed, if this is to be the thing it is really meant to be.
mircea_popescu: perhaps i don't actually see the whole ball there tho.
mircea_popescu: if one doesn't buy into the entire "branding, even if or especially if before the fact" one's stuck with this. i don't mind it so much.
asciilifeform: perhaps misleading title, 'better ircd', i admit i almost postponed reading it when first saw on account of this
rithm: not that architecture, but I'm not reading that definition on trilema
rithm: so the client is the server in this scenario or not? is it more p2p or not because i'm not seeing this definition in the language
mircea_popescu: <rithm> port 1337 tho kinda elitist don't you think << yes, i do.
mircea_popescu: artifexd am i editing the thing to reflect you're doin' it.

kakobrekla: i think the idea is to fix shit, not make it more beautiful.
rithm: i forgot it's unicorn land please continue

mircea_popescu: i thought jurov
mircea_popescu: i dun imagine they'll pretend like they "tested" it in less than a few months, so there's still a season i'd guess.
mircea_popescu: <kakobrekla> as far as i understand sibert now runs paper fund << kinda my understanding as well. but hey, if his customers are happy with it...
kakobrekla: how much did he have under his belt anyway, 20k, 200k ? i forgot
kakobrekla: as far as i understand sibert now runs paper fund
asciilifeform: i dare to suggest a possible term for another thing the ethereum folks do; 'chump fracking'
kakobrekla: i doubt they will get resupplied tbh
Apocalyptic: they will be resupplied as long as derps have money I fear
mircea_popescu: i guess it's time to write a post about all this.

mircea_popescu: i guess the largest shock to noobs is swallowing the actual history of mp-*, as it was.
mircea_popescu: pity i hadn't made a derp for THIS one.
mike_c: don't believe it. i'm not for hire :)
mike_c: your estimation was $50 / hr. I doubt that is the case.
mike_c: (not that i'm bitter)
mike_c: i am worth much more than that.
pete_dushenski: heh i like the sound of that
pete_dushenski: i've used it a few times

BingoBoingo: Well, I imagine dilemma isn't too different from my present ability to buy a gallon of gas for $2 because America is dumping its entire oild reserve now to try to fuck Russia in this moment.
