mod6: totally worthwhile. but
the exant code appears
to still work on main-net anyway. but agreed, more
testing/auditing/investigation required for sure.
mod6: that i do not know. but indeed a good
test. set diff
to 1,
then generate
mircea_popescu: no he is right, you can mine it if you stay on a special subnet
that's isolated.
mod6: produce a block? quit
trollin'

mod6: i've run it myself since
then for sure.
mircea_popescu: and
that looks like ... defensive buffer allocation ? lol.
mircea_popescu: pretty sure various people (myself included) did full
trb blockchain download ; but mimi's very open and usefully so.
mod6: how's it goin
today ?
mircea_popescu: why
the fuck you'd do
that is beyond anyone's comprehension, but w/e.
mircea_popescu: the same species
that can glossaly grade nafta dies from antifreeze ingestion. fucking diversity of mankind already.
mircea_popescu: how. how
the fuck. how do you drink antifreeze it's like
the most objectionable
thing in nature.
mircea_popescu: shape looks kinda right and
the static collection fits
the
tube patter
mircea_popescu: do
they pump white smoke off
the chimney if his dick is on
the right side ?
mircea_popescu: "the golden age of all
the games suck but we finally don't feel
threatened by pgp anymore"
mircea_popescu is particularly annoyed because
tried
to play
torchlight,
total clone of diablo ii with ~half
the ideas. i'm not sure anyone born after 1980 can even comprehend what a fucking insult
to human reason
that statement is.
mircea_popescu: ie,
the same idiots who
thought clinton can win actually
think
they got
the platform sufficiently under control.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform sure, because
https & assorted crapola of "progress" made it safe
to move
the box on
their pc. and it is cheaper
this way.
mircea_popescu: fucking epileptic
trees had a seizure and
took over us media production department.,
mircea_popescu: put on stage by exactly
the sort of lazy, stupid and
therefore unfuckworthy nitwit
that used
to be consigned
to
the margins of etsy craftsmanship and bad mary sue fanfic.
mircea_popescu: turned out
to be unwatchable -
the EXACT same imbecile substance.
mircea_popescu: are you fucking kidding me ? bad media is becoming deeply universalized ; i made
the mistake
to
try and watch "black mirror" because omsone said here, it's
TERRIBLE from a cinematic point of view (the idiots can't act, can't block, can't speak, can't anyfucking
thing ;
the whole
thing's a droned on
ted
talk, which is
the point) and now i see it everwhere. last night
tried
to watch film with harvey keitel and michael cain, it
mircea_popescu: so watever,
tivo ? cable
top box ? call it what you will,
the official-media-consumption-toolkit.
mircea_popescu suffers from a chronic inability
to distinguish
the microsoft vermin.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform at least media consumption data comes from
their netflix boxes spying onthem

the merchandise&media consumption affinities of "independent", "scientific" and you know, "advanced-civilised-progressive" ustards are pretty lulzy

this goes back

a111: Logged on 2016-12-09 01:44 mircea_popescu: ~if i am~ a drug dealer and i burn down your house, you'll what ? file a police report ? go on
the local news network with a
teary eyed "no one could have predicted
that if i get pissy with people who break
the law for a living i might end up with a burned down house" ?
mircea_popescu: it's like
the girl
that naturally fucks on
the first date, and demands
to be fucked in
the ass. yes
they can exist. no
they don't figure in anyone's expectations.
mircea_popescu: i don't
think you understand how software works.
there's a very clear denied middle : it is either
the product of a ~lone individual~, or else of a corporation.
there is no multiple-people-work-without-usg-foundations-and-crap in most people's minds, because
there isn't such a
thing is most people's experience.
Framedragger: eh, whatevs. i redirect
the masses
to f.a.q. etc as needed.
Framedragger: i.e., maybe it's not clear because asciilifeform is
too shy
Framedragger: but also asciilifeform's; and if you google phuctor it's.. clear? hm.

☟︎ Framedragger: (i clarified
to him
that it's not my project, dunno how he got
the impression)
Framedragger: (and yeah,
this dude was like, "hey nice project, how do i submit my key for
testing" - cool.)
Framedragger: i
think some sysadmins may want
to be able
to submit
their ssh-rsa pubkeys
themselves. and phuctor only accepts openpgp format,
this needs
to be converted (ssh pubkey -> gpg pubkey). so i'm adapting/stealing jurov's script and cleaning it up.
mircea_popescu: convertors, not a bad idea. we'll have
to fix everything
to work with proper rsa format anyways
Framedragger: this was while
testing a script
to be given
to
this austrian dude who wrote me, asking how
to submit his server's ssh key (ssh server running on a nonstandard port)
Framedragger: (metainfo was supposed
to be different but i experienced a derp.)
mircea_popescu: ahahaha! so : according
to mp's meticulously kept state archives : yes it's
true one josef israel kugelmann from fritzlar-kassel (#29044 born 13may1877, prev residence munsterstrasse 60) was (and died) at dachau. his wife, ~betty~ sara, was nee plaut not rotschild.
BingoBoingo: ” moment, and
the organization describes itself as committed
to defending "the heritage, identity and future of people of European descent in
the United States, and around
the world."" << Brian Leiter is a notorious aspie

☟︎ phf: i
think it's great if you only use
twm/x11
to spawn a couple of xterms, so you can run your mathematica and write your Fortran simulation code. sort of a Dijkstra lisp machine, when exploratory interactivity is not
the main goal. building
this whole infrastructure on it was a folly
phf: unix also had a lot more of an organic decentralized approach, beyond mans i don't
think anybody actual read anything on
the subject of unix (a few key books, like k&r or steven's on
tcpip). pretty sure people would just grab
the source and learn by exploration
phf: i'm pretty sure
that ai memos are enough
to rebuild computing from scratch. has architectural descriptions, cpu design, fabrication, language designs,
text editors ("emacs" before it was
taken over by rms is described in one of
the ai-memos, both as a standalone
thing and as set of
TECO marcos), various algorithms
phf: i
think "ai research" is a mislabel, because
the promise of ai was used
to keep
the funding going, and
there is a lot of failed hacks on
the subject, but
the bulk of actual work was more about how
to do computers
phf: mircea_popescu: csail (mit ai lab
then) published "ai memos" from 1959
to sometime in early 2000s where
they described a lot of "firsts" in computing in general. scheme spec was published by sussman and steele, lisp 1.5 compiler (first "self-hosting"), lisp machine architecture, etc. most papers are not so much ai as computing in general.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo
the solution
traditionally involves starvation & leather belts.
mircea_popescu: as much as we might like
the (self-unaware) lords involved, it can't be seriously argued
that mit actually did much in cs.
mircea_popescu: phf hey, at least unlike
the 15-20 years of "ai research",
this ~actually does something~.
BingoBoingo needs
to get a pet he can stand for more
than a month at a
time.
phf: ""Polaris" system from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab accelerates website load-time (34 percent faster!!1) by decreasing network
trips." great new advacements from
the famous CSAIL
mircea_popescu: but hey, idiocy doesn't hurt ; if it did wikipedia'd be larger
than silk road.
