mircea_popescu: and shill for a scam.

asciilifeform: i am told that each has a massive proprietary one
asciilifeform: i'm not entirely certain that any piece of silicon that hit the market in the past half decade or so, is a 'real asic.'

mircea_popescu: well its supposed to be a "prototype"
decimation: it's cheaper to run a full server than to pay for the engineering time to dick with the fpga
asciilifeform: this - is fpga 'in a page.'
asciilifeform: which makes the entire proposition of fpga a thinly-veiled scam

assbot: Logged on 04-06-2014 00:08:26; asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: the buggers' traditional defense is to pretend that the event was a non-event - or, if this is impractical, to continue living in an imaginary world where they 'scooped' the story first, and all of the 'unsanctioned' discussion never happened.
decimation: yeah, they seem like a good idea on the surface, until one realizes that it really saves no work over making a gigantic 'switch/case' statement
asciilifeform: decimation: i love it how retarded folks continue to pretend, 30 years later, that one cannot build a system where program is able to go back and correct the cause of an exception
decimation: asciilifeform: what do you think about the 'exception' mechanism in c++, python, etc? To me it seems like a hack to attempt to account for the shiftiness of system calls

PeterL: Like you said, you can own a small piece, but nobody owns the whole thing
decimation: Google: "Q: who owns the internet? A: nobody" << fuck you. if I have a router and a server, I 'own' that piece of the internet. Imagine some peasant showing up in the court of Henry VIII claiming that 'nobody owns' the land under his hovel because the list of owners is large
PeterL: yeah, one of them, hence why I mentioned it along with Nephi as a Utah city
BingoBoingo: Fucking anglo trash were the people who mixed the latin Negro with the Dutch Nikker to create a racial slur

davout: i think we could make a better headline : "How decentralized micro-tipping helped a man get his broken cock fixed"
BingoBoingo: Magic how powers of 10 work. And a bitty bit butt would be 210 satoshis so still better than reddit currency.
davout: sounds like a plan
BingoBoingo: davout: Paymium should have an option to dispay BTC amounts in Butts, where a But = 210,000 BTC
