mircea_popescu: a ok. best leave a link in comments there would you.
artifexd: At WWDC a couple days ago
Naphex: so ghash.io is teaching a valuable lesson then
pankkake: there's this guy who bet 99% of his coins on a scam and now says he doesn't have enough for a lawyer
Naphex: Posts about people paying 28,000$ for mining equipment and still not delivering weeks after deadline. is it just me or thats a hell of a lot money to be pissing people off for
davout: no, the idea that they will categorize applications based on whether or not they store the keys, or rely on a central service
Naphex: while mycelium worked fine. that will make a difference every time there is a service failure
davout: the idea that they'll make a difference isn't supported by any facts so far
Naphex: as they ban torrent apps a well
davout: so, i thought like you, but the facts seem to tell a different story
dub: which is a change from last time I thought about it
davout: i keep raging about it each time i use a windows comp, and i don't use gui when i use linux
pankkake: it's just not ergonomic. makes you work a lot with the mouse for nothing
dub: I don't need unix at my end terminal and its only a couple of clicks away
davout: dub: a feature i like it's that their OS is a unix
dub: thats not just idle fanboy hatred either, they have a lot of mobile handsets around but beyond a few music heads (who suffer extreme lock-in) I don't know any actual users
fluffypony: yeah I quite like Apple and I think that's a stupid feature to focus on
pankkake: "That is a gorgeous trash can," Federighi said. "You wouldn't believe how much time we spent crafting a trash can."
pankkake: "Yosemite has cleaner and clearer icons along the bottom of a Mac screen, including the apps that usually value function over beauty." wait there are macapps that value function?
fluffypony: how is "prettier icons" a feature?
davout: for example, the service call "monitor bitcoin address xyz for x days" is common between a deposit address creation, and an invoice creation
davout: a lot of code is common between a bitcoin deposit and an invoice bitcoin payment
Naphex: davout: but an exchange transaction != a bitcoin transaction
davout: i mean, in my case it's a separate process, but it does however leverage a unique domain model
davout: how does having it as a separate thing help ?
davout: it *has* to be a sequential queue that's processed FIFO
davout: there is a blockchain watching process that notifies the models when it sees an incoming payment
davout: yeah, we have that too, the web interface is a module that hooks into the API
davout: but do you have a single unified domain model ?
Naphex: they come up with servicing in mind, and the same way a client hooks up to them web platforms hook up as well
xmj: no need to reinvent wheels if you already have a stack of them.
Naphex: I like my stuff modular, i split a big app into scalable services
Naphex: but i have done a lot of that for embedded and it worked out very nice
Naphex: xmj: its pretty lean, fast, threading is a dream and NIO is great and fast and easy to implement
xmj: Naphex: we've developed a p2p credit/lending site, our bank's API connectors are in java.
xmj: Naphex: Java seems a popular choice for financial transaction backends
davout: api for example, we leverage a lot of code that already exists, the extra part is a couple of models and their business logic, the e-commerce plugins are separate ofc
fluffypony: xmj: Naphex has been plugged directly into his server banks for a while now
Naphex: and a lot of clutter in a big app
Naphex: probably but that opens a whole lot of room, for vulnerabilities, bugs, spaghetti code, maintainance problems
davout: the money flows are managed in a unified process
davout: also, a lot of code to check for incoming payments and track them properly is shared
davout: i like the idea of having a single app to maintain
Naphex: but the merchant services will be a whole differnt app with merchant in mind, and all the features that come with merchant gateways
davout: i mean can't a merchant request to be paid 12.34 EUR and receive exactly that ?
davout: since we're launching merchant services at about the same time and that we're going to have a single landing page it needs some lifting
Naphex: i'm working on a realtime protobuf interface for trading, with incremental streamed updates and realtime orders.
Naphex: also why would someone just roll another fast interface when they can roll a high performance i/o protobuf one
Naphex: just starting a trend
Naphex: no worries, every time someone does it a shiba inu dies
assbot: If those two 12 year old girls had read some Clive Barker instead of Slender Man Creepypasta, they would have done a way sweeter murder.
BingoBoingo: Eh, a complete non-secret is that one or more Air Force One decoys live across the Mississippi from St Louis

BingoBoingo: Oh, only 4-8 hours until I was offered a derechero might wreak havok
BingoBoingo: Every major city has a few suburbs like those
asciilifeform: (unfortunately with it will fail public utilities, police, etc. so we only learn the price of a 'mad max' house, vs. what presently exists.)
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: this is thought to be a reasonably good deal, too, around here.
BingoBoingo has a brother renting a house he could buy with a year's rent. He doesn't buy because of the burden of unloading it later
asciilifeform: the actual 'free market' price of a u.s. suburban house, if none of this were happening, is probably close to $10k (number pulled from my arse)
assbot: A plan to stop the brick-by-brick demolition of the city : News
BingoBoingo: http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/metro/a-plan-to-stop-the-brick-by-brick-demolition-of/article_3f3265cf-9df9-5120-a62e-650f49b594e4.html
assbot: Brick Theft in North St. Louis: A Preservation Crisis | Preservation Research Office
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: In the right locals government need not do burning, merely look the other way. Market does the burning http://preservationresearch.com/news-2/brick-theft-in-north-st-louis-a-preservation-crisis/
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: point being, a liveable house, as popularly imagined in usa, will never cost what laptop, or even car, costs - if the authorities have to burn 99% of them to maintain this condition, they will.
BingoBoingo: Monsanto and Urban Corn share a home for a reason
kakobrekla: i see it was a busy night, me hops the logs.

BingoBoingo: 19 penetrations and a survivor
BingoBoingo: moiety: It was a story
moiety: oh so it wasn't originally a game.
BingoBoingo: Slenderman is basically a novelization of Usagi's nightmares about MP
moiety: i think its a game though
Vexual: and if you do try to call the hospital,your phone isnt a phone
Vexual: i bet you can eat a fuckton of bad ass cookies b4 you call the hospital nubbins`
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: You may forget, but I recently had a run in with testicular injury and scrotal illness... Stay in a fucking real chair.
BingoBoingo: nubbins`: Still sounds dangerous. More so now that you confess to a vasoconstrictor. Go to ER, get TPA shot just in case.
nubbins`: ('throne' is a bit of an embellishment)
nubbins`: just so we're clear, i don't sit on a drum throne all day
nubbins`: it's a very odd feeling

BingoBoingo: Vexual: Athen was kind of a shithole at the time...
BingoBoingo: http://kotaku.com/creepypasta-had-to-issue-a-statement-saying-slender-man-1585713079
Vexual: the vice article hints at a post humous book
nubbins`: his writings and work were a major influence in my formative years
Vexual: what a tripper
nubbins`: "i'll just eat a gram", said many stoners an hour before a night-long panic attack
asciilifeform: finally, a funeral home agreed to cremate it.
asciilifeform: -- story interlude -- a lab i once worked in used to house such an experimenter. he was eventually caught in diverting his stash to the black market, and imprisoned. the next guy inherited a few kg of coke.
asciilifeform: i'd be very curious to hear, from a legal scholar, how this was arranged on paper.
nubbins`: spent a long time in a very unique position
asciilifeform: nubbins`: afaik he's been out of commission for a while (blind?)
asciilifeform: i forget who here gave a shit about the CVT, but to round out the story: i did learn the cause of the voltage sags. ancient wiring, too many fat electrical appliances switching on in unison (air conditioner, water heater column)
moiety: thought it must have been a crash of some sort BB
asciilifeform: (a bit of a cheat, uses modern sram and rom)
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Looks like a safe place
asciilifeform: decimation: EC is a kind of 'devil's temptation' on account of compact keys.
