mod6: asciilifeform: this could be made to happen indeed. it seemed more straight-forward to scan from low to high. but again, this could be altered.
asciilifeform: mod6: this sounds useful. but why not simply scan backwards ?
mod6: Depending on how fast your machine might be, this might take a while.
mod6: We've seen that when you import a private key with the original I sent to the ML, it works great, but it does take the time to scan through the index from genesis to HEAD for transactions.
mod6: This feature will allow a user to import a private key, but choose which block height he starts scanning (for related transactions to the address) upon import.
mod6: lemme try this again.
mod6: There was a minor feature request to importprivkey, which was submitted late last month to the ML. This feature will allow a user to import a private key, but choose which block ight he starts scanning upon import. ☟︎
mod6: This month has been pretty productive for the Foundation already.
mod6: hahaha, the bottom is so gd funny.
mod6: i love these FUCKGOATS pics.
mircea_popescu: makes very useful nothing outside of the very useful (to it) belief that it does.
mircea_popescu: shinohai but then with the same hand he explains how "it makes a very useful" something or the other. in the same hour it humiliated him in the republic, he's there defending it.
mircea_popescu: re the london blitz, this is afaik indisputed agreement, even by the biritsh side. had luftwaffe committed more seriously britain would have likely folded. likelier than any other time.
asciilifeform: mod6: certain very broken browsers wrap columns in such a way that these parachutes appear to be 1 column.
asciilifeform: mod6: see thread, it was an artifact

asciilifeform: e's Illinois electoral victories, raised questions about this bizarre "quarantine" policy. Inquiries by the NJCRC, he wrote, had uncovered that "the media in Illinois did know that [Democratic primary candidates] Fairchild and Hart were LaRouchites, and chose not to headline this information, based on a judgment that to do so would give LaRouche a platform in statewide politics he did not deserve."'
asciilifeform: 'But behind the media's "soft" view of LaRouche there was often the rankest hypocrisy. While newspapers portrayed him as a kook they made editorial judgments based on the assumption that he was indeed potentially dangerous—so dangerous that his activities must be concealed from the public lest the truth help his movement grow. Jerome Chasen of the National Jewish Community Relations Advisory Council, in a 1986 memorandum on LaRouch
asciilifeform: 'Just as LaRouche took issue with Hitler's version of total mobilization, so he criticized the Nazi leader's military strategy of waging a two-front war against both the West and the Soviet Union. Hitler should have mopped up the Rothschilds' headquarters, Britain, before marching east. The London blitz was not carried out boldly enough.' << genius.
asciilifeform: http://lyndonlarouche.org/newamericanfascism.htm << in very other non-noose. 'This is not a democratic situation; this is a time where democracy is the worst factor you can get. You've got a democracy in the streets now, they want to kill these guys. That's the democracy I want to hear from. I don't want to hear from these so-called Democrats; I want to hear from the killers!'

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-12-10#1580905 << mr mold called it 'scientocracy', and it has 0 to do with, e.g., newton 's or kelvin's science ☝︎

mircea_popescu: and for that matter, the "general population" desire to play the "modern democracy" game is so great - they will happily pretend! ipads are a thing, notwithstanding they're a regression in any conceivable sense, because "dude feels like data in star trek" which is to say, in plain terms, "because we understand our socialist state needs socialist science to be a thing, and we patriotically do our part in pretending it is a thi
mircea_popescu: and this is how "science" as a state mechanism, with grants etc came about. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: they're driven by the lie machine need for specific future-extending lies
mircea_popescu: ie, science, technology, scientific and technological progress etc aren't driven by the naive, idealist "curiosity" of "bright folks"
mircea_popescu: this observation is strengthened by noticing that if what passes for idealists such as yourself or me as "legitimate" science (say, qm) chokes, ~science itself~ will produce "science" at the same rate, but of the "earth sciences and climatology" ilk.
mircea_popescu: as you can see, there's deep reasons why the socialist state (ie, the social machinery of lies) to depend and pretend from the "scientific progress" ie the theoretical machine of lies.. the whole arrangement is predicated on "we eat and science guy will come by later and settle the bill" for this very reason.

mircea_popescu: i suppose we start calling nigger assets masquerading as "scientists" trickers from now on, on the basis of you know, "a trick" being "slang" for "a clever and legitimate technique". you know, "in science".
mircea_popescu: breaking global temperatures, the email was widely misquoted as a "trick" to "hide the decline" as though it referred to a decline in measured global temperatures, an accusation made publicly by the politicians Sarah Palin and Jim Inhofe" << the wikipedia unhappening of the original global warming fraud is nothing short of astounding.
mircea_popescu: r Keith's to hide the decline."[205] In science, the term "trick" is slang for a clever (and legitimate) technique, in this case Michael E. Mann's technique for comparing two different data sets,[206] and "the decline" referred to the already published divergence problem with tree ring density proxies affecting the post 1960 part of Keith Briffa's reconstruction graph.

mircea_popescu: "The most quoted phrase took words from an e-mail of 16 November 1999 written by Phil Jones which referred to a graph he was preparing as a diagram for the cover of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) statement on the status of global climate in 1999.[203][204] Jones wrote: "I've just completed Mike's Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie, from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 fo

asciilifeform: this is because there is -- and afaik to this very day -- a thick layer of prb between any of us and any miner.
