mircea_popescu: "When America finally gets to the point when she legalizes prostitution, as she already has legalized homosexuality, she will be at the point when God will execute His judgment upon her, I.e., Death.

mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> The @twobitallidiot is now all concerned abou "wealth concentration" <<< in normal terms, "wealth concentration" means "power centers that are not alligned with usg".
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo teh people whom nobody asked anything wondering about questions! it's a festival!
mircea_popescu: <danielpbarron> for example, the mechanics are so poorly spaded that << re that "spaded", just you wait until you discover it's actually a noncomputable multivariate which doesn't even allow stable solutions in the real space.
mircea_popescu: i can't believe nobody has written the epic story of the greatesrt failure in modern gaming. it's not daikatana, it's diablo 3.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron sadly necro sucked in d2, ended up forced to do a cold sorc like everyone else (that wasn't a paly). but did a witchdoctor in d3, for the... month or so that survived.
mircea_popescu: because skill kills. and so spent my time in the ravensomething library reading "you and evil things, a love story"
mircea_popescu: i was doing pretty good, apparently im immune to the negative effects of qwops

mircea_popescu: i got annoyed at the "oh noes, how could this thing that's been done since forever be done"
mircea_popescu: anyway. it bears insistingly repeating : the internet is big. the web is a pustule on its ass.
mircea_popescu: good for you. so how did they sell datafeeds ? txn blabla ?
mircea_popescu: why the fuck does everyone imagine the internet = the web is beyond me.
mircea_popescu: or they could just rent vpn access like anyone ever since forever.
mircea_popescu: this thing needs 3 knobs : total ram to be made available to relayer, and min $/byte to accept.
mircea_popescu: now cache is full and to get in, either pay 10 per byte or go dangle.
mircea_popescu: you set 10 bytes aside for "mempool". 1 tx comes, has 2 bytes pays 5. goes in. brings 4 brothers.
mircea_popescu: if you have 8mb and mempool is actually 8gb, you lose 99.9%
mircea_popescu: this is where that problem is solved. no point also solving it somewhere else.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field again : we have a pool of X bytes. tx are allowed in only if they pay more than average fore that x.

mircea_popescu: the problem is solved there. no point solving it n other places.
mircea_popescu: which is why the idea is to have X bytes, and then allow tx in according to pay.
mircea_popescu: but once they made it through that, they can have whatever they want.
mircea_popescu: this is the required balance to this scheme. yes, we kill all idiot children without anyu regard to the ever rising blood level on the floor or the tears of their mothers.
mircea_popescu: tx passed the test, and is now a tx. should get something for this.
