mircea_popescu: i don't care what you need. fuck you and your needs. the infrastructure can't support udp in the current configuration. you don't get udp for this reason.
mircea_popescu: i wish it were made a law that no isp may provide udp connectivity for a price under the minimum wage.
mircea_popescu: once aol was allowed online, it necessarily followed no udp. i'm sick of having to deal with it.
mircea_popescu: yup, that's the only time so far 3 appears alone as a factor.
mircea_popescu: (ftr, intrigeri is something crazy with the bug reports, may be all-internet record holder)
mircea_popescu: decimation check it out, they need a metalocale. hopefully implemented as multibyte too!
mircea_popescu: just like phantomcircuit still goes around, an aethero waiting to happen.
mircea_popescu: the funny thing will be that this schmuck will still be going around pretending like he actually exists and so forth even after this idiocy goes the way of neobee and "bitcoin security experts group"
mircea_popescu: no but just for my curiosity, what's github to do with a quarter bil ?
mircea_popescu: decimation you kiddin' me, it could buy out all the russia!
mircea_popescu: at the very least draw a schema of what and how needs done so people's offers to help can be plugged in
mircea_popescu: anyway, you should prolly take a bit of time away from the hands on work you love and do some management stuff.
mircea_popescu: decimation that's what makes it suspicious. 20mn slashdot, 2bn github. because... reasons.
mircea_popescu: but i'm pretty sure can't simply abandon the entire userland question, it'd be a major strategic mistake.
mircea_popescu: mod6 i'm not entirely sure how the specifics should work out. bit of an open question atm
mircea_popescu: it could happenb to sf, it can and definitely will happen to github etc.
mircea_popescu: and do not buy into the illusion that it was an isolated incident.
mircea_popescu: can't even afford this for eulora, let alone for bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: sourceforge goes down, there goes youre entire project, seriously ?
mircea_popescu: this sounds patently insane, i agree, but i just recently discovered in unrelated proejct that it's unavoidable.
mircea_popescu: we will have to at the very least maintain packages we want to use, in the basic sense of, archival for download.
mircea_popescu: otherwise struggling with installers etc is a horrid trudge, but it is also an investment in human capital.
mircea_popescu: yeah. still, it's valuable to try, because if you help people they'll help you.
mircea_popescu: mod6 so far 90%+ of the problems have been with installation, from what i've seen
mircea_popescu: that said, obviously the effort to make anything work on the stack of shit we inherited from our retarded ancestors is nothing short of immense. but, chipping away at it is going to deliver, and confronting it is definitely going to show us a few useful things.
mircea_popescu: you don't belong there, and moreover that's just not our company style.
mircea_popescu: mod6 just don't go to this dark place where "omg it's the 29th and i must have a working final version of bitcoind to announce
mircea_popescu: sure, not to date. but we're not going by the criteria of what is easy, so we don't really care. if we won't have success for the next decade we'll be here trying it in 2026.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: useful work is useful work. taking responsibility for the whole world is a different story.
mircea_popescu: more's the point here, i get the impression you're chaffing under too much workload.
mircea_popescu: not merely just an auto.sh, but step by step instructions to a level of detail never seen in open source.
mircea_popescu: that'd be the problem. too much convenience, and allowing women the illusion that anyone asked them for any input in the big question of whether their offspring survives or not.
mircea_popescu: "Note, this is pretty much contrary to what Ulrich Drepper reckons about static linking." << everywhere a gavin!
☟︎ mircea_popescu: "early experiments show that statically linked binaries are usually smaller than their dynamically linked glibc counterparts!!!"
mircea_popescu: blergh, fucktarded sales copy, i guess i'm the dumbass for not noticing it's washitpo again
mircea_popescu: "In just five years, Uber has accumulated enough rideshare industry milestones to make your head spin. The total distance traveled by all Uber drivers would take you to Planet Saturn — and back. "
mircea_popescu: in any case in the triangle "monthly releases" "mod6 does all teh work" "bitcoind is usable" i'm not going to pick the first two for fucks sake.
mircea_popescu: this "pure code" approach is no different from every other "pure research" proposition - sure, you're purely able to pursue pure goals now, but the cost is any conceivable relevancy.
☟︎ mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=29-07-2015#1217142 << doesn't have to be a one size fits all. but if your software can't be built, your software doesn't exist. and it is still upon you to explain how you expect users to use your thing - nobody is going to go do the guesswork of "what the author might have meant", and ESPECIALLY no sane person should ever guess what "obvious" means for anyone else.
☝︎☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: myeah, prime target for revolutionizing, they used to be big data in the 70s
mircea_popescu: she had me at achtung noobkart. sort-of like you know, armored ?
mircea_popescu: <jurov> phf: that may have worked if eulora used wxwidgets from cs << rewriting it on wxwidgets not illegal ftr.
mircea_popescu: but prolly best off selling your smal claims to a higher mienr for cash or a cut or w/e
mircea_popescu: you can buy thread for your smalls, i sell high q stuff at ~430 each
mircea_popescu: punkman you can mine for free, ill give you some bits of nothing for your tinies for free also.
mircea_popescu: she's the queen of whimsy nao, we all gotta bow to her for samovar goodness.
mircea_popescu: let cs handle the canvas bs for you is by far the best idea. and only toucvh the radioactive pile of crap it is via the client api for oyur own safety.
