http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-21#1701446 >> on second thought, you probably could put this chore off, olimex sells a ice40-8k (largest available) with 512k of sram glued on. and this is theoretically enough to prototype . the more pressing matter is ethernet. ( afaik nobody sells an ice40 + ethernetmagnetics . and just
as with ddr dram, answer is 'lattice wants you to use their larger fpgas, with THEIR toolchain'
mircea_popescu: easy to condemn this
as "a mistake retrospectively", especially if one has nfi what sort of demands an operational approach places on the labour pool.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-21 14:49 phf: now i didn't find out about race conditions myself, that data point came from dks, they discovered race conditions
as part of the emulator rewrite, but they have the benefit of having access to the necessary low level bits
a111: Logged on 2017-06-30 16:51 asciilifeform: so adder, multer, etc, etc all exist simply
as devices that hang from 1 set of wires.

http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-20#1701196 <-- yah, but does protecting the "proles" from own stupidity even make any sense
as a statement? sorta relates to idea on Trilema on whether the empire wanted to arrive to this point (can't find it right now). enfranchisement of the stupid directly lead to that.
mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-08-21#1701414 << empire is not organised towards "protecting of the proles" or any other statement with the proles
as a subject. the proles (understood deductively,
as "all people", just
as they understand govenment deductively, see prev discussion),
as well
as the environment generally are the objects, not the subjects of imperial discourse.
☝︎☟︎ pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: "another guy" can be read
as no more than bch walletolade manufacturer. glhf auditing the code of the extant heaps required to sweep privkeys and send bch to xchange.
a111: Logged on 2017-08-22 01:49 pete_dushenski: mod6: hugely. i've now got a small stockpile of 'em seeing
as asciilifeform is a few years ahead of the curve and is already reporting on their 2yrish lifespans. might
as well have some on hand.
pete_dushenski:
as the kids these days say, you do you man, you do you.

☟︎☟︎ pete_dushenski: but i was
as surprised
as mike_c (to whom, wb btw!) that the bch --> btc market actually came through, at least for triple-digit btc sums. obv can't speak to mp-level six- or seven-digit sums.
hanbot: yeah, ty. i wonder if it wouldn't be wise to update that list monthly
as part of reporting etc.
☟︎ phf: sure, but chinual is extremely detailed and the ~architecture~ can be improved incrementaly. for example brad's cpu is, yes, implemented
as an emulator for a discrete circuit. but at the same time it can be isolated from the bus, put into a determenistic harness, and rewritten from the cpu spec in chinual.

☟︎ spyked: asciilifeform, lol, yeah, that's why I gave MIPS
as an example. but actually, MIPS on FPGA + MIPS Lisp machine implementation might be more work than starting from CADR. that is, not even accounting for RAM and peripherals
spyked: asciilifeform, yeha agreed. was wondering whether it's worth using the virtual machine
as a starting point.

☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: no. it is actually trying to bill itself
as the opposite.
mircea_popescu: that's the extent of familiarity, i had to review the god-awful prose of the interwar imbeciles
as part of writing the programme.
valentinbuza: it's nice for CS students to have such opportunities
as math universities dominated* crypto scene.
mircea_popescu: this is like 9 yo telling you that the bath dissolved her snatch. you can't corrode just the seam,
as a concept, leaving behind the item without a seam can oyu.
mircea_popescu: anyway, funny thing re bronze : it needs tin.
as far
as ancient world is concerned, copper was uberabundant (cyprus) but tin was either england or anatolia
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform they had cannons, just didn't use them
as cannons because no gunpowder.
mircea_popescu: for same applications
as historically -- mining first, then crop/textile processing, then boat power.
mircea_popescu: !~later tell spyked corning gorilla glass is just alumino-silicate glass made by corning. there's a bunch others. think of it
as cheap bohemian glass, that thing we had the 10kg fruit bowls etc, "cristal". that's leaded, this is aluminized.
mircea_popescu: there is ~no possibility~ of such a tging
as reputation among africans, shamanists, idiots, "what good are square roots" and other sub-human non-people.

☟︎ phf: but i agree on the overall points, though moving forward from cadr wouldn't be so much backporting,
as "writing in the missing bits"
phf: there are extant lisp machines that have both hardware documentation and system sources, for example MIT's CADR, but cadr specifically predates symbolics by a dozen of years, was developed by academia, so it's nowhere near
as advanced
as genera
spyked: mircea_popescu, I agree. do you mean"the fridge"
as in somewhat close to the platonic fridge?
mircea_popescu: it ends up
as being an example
as to why it is hard to think about systems if one's very inclined to unhygienically import random unknowns into the workbench.
mircea_popescu: "We may informally state that "reversing a given list yields the list which has the same elements but in the exact opposite order (e.g. right-to-left,
as opposed to left-to-right)", but we have no way of accurately specifying this in our language other than by defining rev and postulating that "rev reverses any given list". The same goes for appending lists."
spyked: yeah, it was very easy to conflate "list can be described
as either nil, or pair between something and a list" and "list is defined
as". I could rewrite sometime if you think it's worth it; I don't think it is, I was just trying to show how reasoning about software isn't trivial even when you have a framework for that, let alone when void *p = ...;
mircea_popescu: it's a set, and enumerated because computers lack the ability to construct ~described~ sets, such
as "the set of prime numbers" or w/e.
spyked: my initial thought on getting a Lisp machine run was using a RISC machine
as microcode. and implement the whole thing bare metal in software. it's a lot cheaper, albeit probably hard to verify
mircea_popescu: the correct approach is rendering the idiotas for fat.
as stalin did,
as china does,
as everyone who's worth two shits ever did.
r0nin-: usury
as the source of value in the economy
mircea_popescu: but the ~reason~ for it is very much found in 1600s trade policy. the dutch had open trade, the english wanted all trade to go through london. their centralist, counterproductive approach is what sunk them. they kept getting freebies, such
as when the dutch moved over under wilhelm to become "english", but by and large uk is a thrown rock. it goes down.
r0nin-: because
as you correctly pointed out earlier, they dont protect their industries
mircea_popescu: worst fucking shithole in all of europe,
as far
as that's concerned.
r0nin-: the entire premise of a country is to minimize costs and maximize gains, so send
as little
as possible while importing
as much
as possible
mircea_popescu: this leaves you with the unbacked currency, and it becomes more and more unbacked
as the trade deficit progresses.
r0nin-: every single assclown brings up zimbabwe or weimer
as their lame example of 'hyperinflation' without every understanding what happened there
trinque: r0nin-: you've repeated that twice now,
as though quoting your bible.
r0nin-: <+mircea_popescu> in other random lulz : romania closed 2016
as the strongest economy in the eu. 1.3% drop in inflation, <1% budget deficit, 38.5% debt to gdp. stable local currency yoy.
mircea_popescu: the most precious item is when cardbord-person makes evaluations
as to the future!
mircea_popescu: in other random lulz : romania closed 2016
as the strongest economy in the eu. 1.3% drop in inflation, <1% budget deficit, 38.5% debt to gdp. stable local currency yoy.
mircea_popescu: bit of a time bomb,
as i'm sure these will pop up. first mover advantage i guess.
mike_c: well, there's only
as much money
as the order book is deep
mircea_popescu: so you would do it
as "send me 1 btc, i will send back 1.1 btc depending on market"
mike_c: well, now that I'm thinking about it, not sure how that would work
as a service. Because I had to use some assumed virus ridden POS BCH wallet. So I swept out a BTC wallet, then imported the address keys into the assumed virus wallet for BCH
Birdman: then may
as well keep them
Birdman: it seems to me that the bug im looking for is most likely to appear in hands processed that aren't sequential
as the sequential ones are most likely entirely fragmented and the ones with only one player missing are the ones im most likely looking for
mircea_popescu: well depends observably for whom. what, you're going to compare events with alt-events-
as-reasonably-imagined ?
mircea_popescu: i think this proves roosevelt is alive (might
as well).
mircea_popescu: seems to be obvious and necessarily true, iunasmuch
as bitcoin has 100% of the world savings market share and about a millionth of a percent of the world capital allocation market share.
mod6: but mostly, the savings rate far exceeds the yield of capatal allocation; which is obvious. and will stay that way for sometime
as fiats -> 0. someday, that'll be different.
mircea_popescu: whereas in case 2 it will be put at so massively a premium so
as to make 2 stock outstanding worth more than 1's.
mircea_popescu: fortunately, there's no kako-nubbins party to argue that hey,
as btc price is chiefly supported by the republic, which has a lot to do with mp, it is therefore mp's job to idemnify "the users"
as imagined by kako-nubbins for "this loss" resulting from his you know, unauthorized use of resources for purposes not priorly reported to the almightyly important kako-nubbins party!
mircea_popescu: mircea_popescu amusingly has. nsa made the worst deal in history by you know, buying parts and then trying to sell them
as a result.
mircea_popescu: describing the masturbation of units of nothing
as "buying something" is a stretch.
mircea_popescu: there's no way out of this. there will NEVER be such a thing
as respectable poverty. it's called slavery, and the poor that aren't slaves are in open rebellion against god, nature, and everything good right and proper.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform great surgeon makes
as good a harem slave
as any other pole dancer.
mircea_popescu: moreover, your model veers dangerously close to "sane but poor". there is no such thing
as "respectable poor". the poor are scum. substantially.
