jurov: i plan to try building full node, with atc the blockchain fits in memory
jurov: in half a day i made it actually talk to altcoind (altcoiners, watch your .altcoin/debug.log ;) )
mike_c: i am a fan of the security bug bounties (if they are sizable). gives hackers a way to do their thing and get paid legally.
ben_vulpes: <jurov> i have a little hope for haskoin, it's nicely done << last i checked it was just an rpc wrapper, has it grown much?
ThickAsThieves: i suppose it's not a job for auditors, it's a job for hackers
jurov: ;;later tell asciilifeform after seeing the lisp machine vid, i remembered there is a contemporary cpu with accessible microcode - transmeta crusoe. only problem i see they worked with torvalds not naggum... but maybe something can be salvaged?
ThickAsThieves: mike_c did you just say what i think you said?
ben_vulpes: how else am i to know what i'm getting into?
nubbins`: i think i'm going to start only quoting the winkdex for the btc/usd price
ben_vulpes: <ThickAsThieves> i often think about that, how the hell can someone who cannot/willnot read code, ever be the steward of a software project safely? << for legacy projects i generally angle for an audit phase.
ThickAsThieves: like was said earlier, <+mats_cd03> i delay the battles i cannot win and fight with haste otherwise
jurov: i have a little hope for haskoin, it's nicely done
ThickAsThieves: i'm looking for an example
ThickAsThieves: i often think about that, how the hell can someone who cannot/willnot read code, ever be the steward of a software project safely?
ThickAsThieves: if i were to attempt articulating it, I'd say it's a focus on convenience over robustness, ignorance over understanding, etc
ThickAsThieves: bounce, i cant argue with that
mats_cd03: i delay the battles i cannot win and fight with haste otherwise
ThickAsThieves: i apologize for such a broad stroke if they seemed otherwise
ThickAsThieves: i was only pointing out that the illusion of security most people hold is long gone
ThickAsThieves: just because i suggets nothing is "really secure" does not mean that I am saying security is a waste of time
bounce: I am? show how.
ThickAsThieves: i think you need to brace yourself for the broader definition of hacking
ThickAsThieves: also, i'm okay with "hacker" meaning someone who can hack shit together to do rare shit
kakobrekla: http://nsasimulator.com < i heard there some panic re this here as 3 bedrooms from ljubljana were discovered on that thing
rithm: i could use just a little bit more hopelessness?
rithm: i like it

ThickAsThieves: i'm dealing with children
mats_cd03: i don't want to paint a broad brush here,
ThickAsThieves: like i couldnt recognize my own sig...
ThickAsThieves: so i paid to have Lowes install a garage door on a rental property, 2mos later it finally happens (skipping some headache details) and they dont actually fully install it and they show me a forged report with my signature
cazalla: i think i read somewhere before fatties last longer because lower test means they're more inclined to think about the womans pleasure
ThickAsThieves: kako i made a bad joke, not ur fault
mats_cd03: i... feel so alive.
mats_cd03: 23:16:36 <+asciilifeform> mats_cd03: practical-file-system-design << old favourite of mine.<< i am also busy consuming 'principles of program analysis' by nielson and friend.
mats_cd03: i usually have to pair it with meat to even be consumable
mats_cd03: i have finally discovered a cheese that i find palatable: pepper jack.
ThickAsThieves: ;;later tell TheNewDeal <TheNewDeal> any response on that foia yet? /// since youve been singling me out, I wanna clear up that, while I did email them an inquiry long ago, I did not personally submit a FOIA request. I simply know of a couple netizens that did. You can expect news to spread fast once(if) it happens. ☟︎
Vexual: asia i s still underrepresented in assets
xmj: I accept BTC payments, too! look i'm modern

davout: what do i look like, bacteria?

decimation: "I swear on my magic that I will not put Hermione Granger into the Asplundh in the courtyard," Harry said solemnly, << lolwtf
asciilifeform: generally learn how to stop drifting aimlessly around << this is particularly funny to me, as i 'knew exactly what to do' before interned as a kid, and then began to doubt...
mircea_popescu: i need an intern.
BingoBoingo: I might play with the archives again if their quarentine page gets too big...
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo the only third option i ever saw that made sense was on pg's site. J F M A M J J A S O N D line under line under line
decimation: I assume it's the unlambda stuff?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Yeah it's been a year. I also tried the dropdown thing, but... I rather like the comprehensive page of its own thing.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes: le travail, c'est le travail << i like how philosophical marriage makes one. socrates had a point.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> TheNewDeal: Feel like I working in a chinese sweatshop for the last half hour << i am glad to learn that i am not the only one who ended up constructing his own personal chinese sweatshop to toil in... << and how is this different from the making of a computer useful for software development?
decimation: yeah I was reading about how they ditched laser cut designs for photoetching
decimation: yeah I suspect as the ID of the tube approaches the size of the balls weird stuff would happen
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> (then i'd have to explain how this doesn't work, sadly, and for nonobvious reason) << it could work if instead you went for living fabrication machines as the Flinstones did.
TheNewDeal: hahaha I hardly constructed one. Just borrowed a tiny screwdriver from the tools that ship with the machine
asciilifeform: TheNewDeal: Feel like I working in a chinese sweatshop for the last half hour << i am glad to learn that i am not the only one who ended up constructing his own personal chinese sweatshop to toil in...
asciilifeform: (then i'd have to explain how this doesn't work, sadly, and for nonobvious reason)
asciilifeform: i keep waiting for someone here to suggest 'use peristaltic pump'
nubbins`: read that earlier, i have no dial test indicator ;(
asciilifeform: nubbins`: odd coincidence, i ordered one today
TheNewDeal: may have just fixed my dial indicator. Feel like I working in a chinese sweatshop for the last half hour
asciilifeform: (there are circumstances where air can mix with the paste, but i will not describe them here - we've already put everyone to sleep.)
decimation: yeah I guess there is no air in the chamber, so it's all incompressible
asciilifeform: 'better' in the sense that 1) it easily beats the controlled-air-puff dispenser i was using previously, which is almost unusably inaccurate and,
decimation: yeah I understand.
decimation: I guess I'm thinking "must recreate xilinux crapware, mentor graphics crapware, & various glue code"
decimation: I remember when beos was a thing, raging fast, low latency. too bad it petered out
asciilifeform: decimation: i asked dan schmidt whether he'd sell it - he answered that he won't, it's in some kind of eternal legal limbo (sub-licensed somewhere, or the like.)
TheNewDeal: So it did cross 1:1 and 10:1 in 2011. I'd say that's an up year
decimation: as I recall it was the summer of 2011
BingoBoingo: I mean last fall was the anomalie in that it has a rally whereas 2011 and 2012... stagnation...
TheNewDeal: Definitely. I'm a new comer
decimation: if the scenario that peterl proposes comes remotely true, I suspect it will get love
peterl: I suppose the billion dollar bet could hit yes if btc/usd price and amount bet each go up ~30x
decimation: asciilifeform: I watched the Kalman Reti smbx video, got a flavor of the unqiueness of symbolics hardware
mod6: If another month goes by without any coinminer data, i'll just pull it.
fluffypony: ok I'm out, cheers
fluffypony: I am disappoint
