asciilifeform: (a large, industrial speculator, that is)

asciilifeform: in that sense, all cheap real estate is a mirage. if it could be had for $smallint, a speculator would already own it.

asciilifeform: but logic suggests that if it were not for this 'small print', it'd be the same 200k as in washington

asciilifeform: fuck that

asciilifeform: e.g., near where i live there is baltimore, md. a city where there are 5k usd plots of land. but i go and try to buy, and learn that it comes with a $maxint obligation to clean, build, guard...

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-07-2015#1199113 << there is an interesting caveat, which is that land prices in the nato reich are proclaimed 'too big to fail' in the sense that they will never be permitted to fall into where a schmuck can buy a serious land holding ☝︎

asciilifeform: looks like it

asciilifeform: then this is usable.

asciilifeform: aha thx

asciilifeform: (is this standardized and implicit ?)

asciilifeform: nor do the 'edges' specify in what direction goes the flow

asciilifeform: in particular, i have no idea how many times function x calls y

asciilifeform: solrodar: there is information loss in your s-expression output.

asciilifeform: but not everybody gets to be part of it.

asciilifeform: punkman: so does usa

asciilifeform: some folks have the meatwot to avoid or mostly avoid fiat banks. (a few of them here, iirc.) good for them.

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-07-2015#1199110 << re: banks, they are a furniture in the jail. so i apply solzhenitsyn's formula, 'НЕ верь, НЕ бойся, НЕ проси' - don't trust, don't fear, don't ask anything of it. ☝︎

asciilifeform: ;;later tell mircea_popescu as soon as somebody reports a successful replication of solrodar's recipe, imho he ought get the prize

asciilifeform: neato

asciilifeform: where's the recipe?

asciilifeform: solrodar: aha

asciilifeform: but items like 'ultima online' never got me hot&bothered

asciilifeform: i can sorta picture the appeal of eulora, by imagining it as a kind of animated #b-a

asciilifeform: but i never got into mmporgs at all. what sort of game is it where player is not the hero!

asciilifeform: yes, especially loved the 1980s (commodore-64!) through '5'

asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=13-07-2015#1199135 << wouldjabelieve i played the whole series ~BUT~ for 9 and 'Online' ? ☝︎

asciilifeform: i was certain i'd have to do this bit of cleaning myself, and it is a pleasant surprise not having to

asciilifeform: still, nice work punkman

asciilifeform: was gonna add verbosity in various spots, also, for 'max'

asciilifeform: these are to be displayed on max, but not on 'normal'

asciilifeform: the replacement of various 'if debug ...'-isms

asciilifeform: but i'm very much behind with my list.

asciilifeform: this one was on my list.

asciilifeform: min produces no log whatsoever

asciilifeform: max retains all, as your version does

asciilifeform: better solution is loglevels

asciilifeform: no thx

asciilifeform: one more MB of shit for pogo rom ?

asciilifeform: but if it is absent entirely, log will fill disk

asciilifeform: it needs to be switchable off, yes

asciilifeform: and what's the deal with removing ShrinkDebugFile ? ☟︎

asciilifeform: what's in that one ?

asciilifeform: ideally it'd all go to debug.log

asciilifeform: what a crock of shit this thing was, from day 1...

asciilifeform: ah hm

asciilifeform: other nitpick: the removal of the wx cruft is spiffy - it was next on my personal list. but i'd replace InitMessage with fprintf(FOO, ..... with FOO equalling stdout by default. this is because we might one day have a device with a character lcd screen, or teletype, or whatnot, and preserving the semantics of 'this is an init message' isn't entirely useless

asciilifeform: for now i'd just let that thing live

asciilifeform: i'm not even sure how to do this, other than in c, on a machine with no bash, perl, python, etc

asciilifeform: nor perl, etc

asciilifeform: (iirc my pogo build does not)

asciilifeform: keep in mind that not all systems will have bash

asciilifeform: in that spirit.

asciilifeform: aha

asciilifeform: punkman: well, not necessarily put it back, but think of whether there might be a more elegant pill

asciilifeform: and i don't relish having to create it manually on every new machine

asciilifeform: imho it was precisely the correct thing. i don't use remote rpc, i don't give a fuck what the pw is so long as it can't be guessed

asciilifeform: punkman: but, tell me this, what was the rationale for nuking the random rpc pw generator thing ?

asciilifeform: punkman: http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/attachments/20150713/punkman_debug_sanity_part1_f0023d64470b05705a891da5b52bb1c24eed955b.patch << neato

asciilifeform: (letting blocks fall under 950kB is out of the question, dontchaknow)

asciilifeform: or will it pay for tx fees once gavinspam runs short of oldcoinz ?

asciilifeform: ^ long live the waterfall, aha

asciilifeform: decimation: i don't understand why there has to be anything random about it

asciilifeform: who wants just to read - can read the www log

asciilifeform: what openness, when tomorrow, e.g., taleb, logs in, and gets ddosed off by a tard ☟︎

asciilifeform: what do we need the idling remoras for ? ☟︎

asciilifeform: i still don't see why kakobrekla doesn't make the chan invite-only. anyone who wants in would pm one of the folks speaking. just like voice currently works

asciilifeform: because i'm pretty sure it's still here.

asciilifeform: has anyone recently probed for the continued existence of the ddos bot ? ☟︎

asciilifeform: three differents, so far ☟︎

asciilifeform: probably looking for a proxy that works

asciilifeform: Xemist was here ?

asciilifeform: aircraft in usa are not permitted to rely solely on gps!

asciilifeform: they do.
