mircea_popescu: at this point, project either delivers and is done or takes on life of own. if takes on life, then 3. more wizards are added, they slowly asm-ify the loops, inside out.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i don't get it, wtf is a "permissioned" coin ? bitcoin is already permissioned, and if you don't think so you're more than welcome to spend mine ?

http://btcbase.org/log/2016-11-24#1573033 <<< thx Framedragger ... since it is python is trivial to convert to a plugin, but I kinda agree with
mircea_popescu that should only be a call. When phuctor pops a lot of keys would get spammy imho to have bot announce 5-10 ip locations.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do you not like the new deedbot phuctor style ?

deedbot:
mircea_popescu is already registered.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i'm saying that there's a possible runaway effect where a party could claim to own many a fingerprint, because "their key fingerprinting function is like that", to the point where semantically useful names could be owned by them. but that's just ridiculous..
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i suppose the system could just allow one to own multiple fingerprints, according to different schemes, with some constraints on length ('minimum length' at least)?
mircea_popescu: then have name record on that = mircea popescu and freenode-nick record =
mircea_popescu and blog = trilema.com and goodreads = whatever
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i'm still not sure about the delegation thing. if A owns goodreads, B should in principle be able to register fuck.goodreads , right? but then allowing for a possibility of delegation would be nice. or, it'd just be a matter of convention *within deedbot's context*.
mircea_popescu: so then deedbot could own goodreads and delegate
mircea_popescu.goodreads to me.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: like, the name is signed, or specific piece of content is signed? i assume the former?

Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: sure, logical explosion, though yeah that usually requires both attribute-holders to exist, if you're claiming one of them doesn't, then it's just a nonsensical statement. which i guess is your point... i suppose so.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: girl came back to me saying she doesn't want to do it, doesn't feel confident enough. "maybe later". owell.
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: i know a girl who could do it in a pretty lone voice. s/trash metal/some metal and lots of punk/, smoking included, good german, can sing. unless you insist on male voice..

mircea_popescu: the difference between eyes and electronic sensors on cars, ofc, is that you know when eyes stop working before it's too late. either way, if trumpenreich is to restore full employment to amerika, abolishing the minimum wage will make a full-time chauffeur affordable to anyone who can also spend $100k on a tesla or equiv.

mircea_popescu: trinque can deedbot rss parsing be unprincipledly altered so that any succession of alphanum characters in excess of 16 spaces is replaced with first4[...]last4 ?
Framedragger:
mircea_popescu: um. while it will not increase "number of URLs newly archived" if URL is actually not valid as reported by archive.is, but it *will* get increased for the same URL, even if archive.is had already archived it.
