mircea_popescu: see the whole point of "string" as a concept (and from it, as a type) is based on a fundamental ambiguity. now it's this, now it's that.
davout: strings defined as byte vectors is pretty unambiguous
davout: asciilifeform: does the CLHS exist as a single-page HTML doc ?
asciilifeform: hey if boeing can count an instance of asciilifeform-shown-737-ad as $737price*$p-of-him-buying, and they also get to imagine that the latter is a positive number, >0, then gdp can be trillion!!!1
danielpbarron: indiancandy, eulora is a program you can run on windows and effectively use as a bitcoin wallet, without having to mess around with the block chain directly
asciilifeform: davout: steele's cltl2 as encyclopaedia. seibel's 'practical commonlisp'. graham (yes) 'ansi common lisp', circa 1994. keene's CLOS. 'common lisp recipes', weitz.
asciilifeform: btw if you're going off on a voyage, afaik you can just as easily stick a gsm card in that slot
phf: "The system works by periodically reporting back to a central authority. In the event of theft, the central authority can instruct the resident agent to wipe all information as a security measure, or to track the whereabouts of the system, to help recover the stolen items via subsequent law enforcement activities"
phf: oh that's crafty. so you just plop atheros in the same slot as where intel wifi sits? it looked pretty "standard" the way it was sitting there
asciilifeform: it was a disaster, as documented here.
mircea_popescu: the "authorship" bullshit / englithment fiction really went as far as it could go. in fact, a lot further than it should have ever went.
asciilifeform: in other lulz, https://www.chipworks.com/about-chipworks/overview/blog/scanning-microwave-impedance-microscopy-smim << this looks quite buildable, using same mechanical rigging as the classic 'STM in your kitchen' recipe
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski ftr, poker needs no such thing as "ai". poker is a deterministic game if you wish, can program machine to play extremely tight, will beat most humans.
davout: mitm-as-a-service was gag order'd since 2013. such surprise. https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflares-transparency-report-for-second-half-2016-and-an-additional-disclosure-for-2013-2/
ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-11#1601355 << ty, i like it as well ☝︎
pete_dushenski: ben_vulpes: i think ima keep it as is. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Holmes&defid=6348806
mircea_popescu: about 2.45x as many moduli ; abound 5.38x as many broken ones compared to may 17th 2016
deedbot: http://phuctor.nosuchlabs.com/gpgkey/EBBAEA2FCFBDA7A5185132DFE6933D5BC725DCFD9C7E73559592F5DA86110A78 << Recent Phuctorings. - Phuctored: 1658...0207 divides RSA Moduli belonging to '85.152.3.133 (ssh-rsa key from 85.152.3.133 (13-14 June 2016 extraction) for Phuctor import.

phf: aying. first of all, you don't use setup question technique unless you have standing, it's at least partially rhetorical. second of all, when you do, you don't drag it out. i dismissed him at that point as a tedious bore, which he turned out to be
BingoBoingo: as far back as 2013 ben_vulpes and I duelled over who get to get the most playtime with the food that comes in here.
mircea_popescu: have a glass of water ; go do something useful with your time, restricted as it may be.
mircea_popescu: aquentson can you appreciate the ridiculousness of your position, you refused to read history and proposed history as an exchange token within the same five minutes. how is this supposed to work, iyo ?
aquentson: act as a leader you proclaim to be
aquentson: <aquentson> as you know bitcoin's transaction capacity is currently limited, there have been many proposals
aquentson: as you know bitcoin's transaction capacity is currently limited, there have been many proposals
aquentson: do you think what I defined as the free market is good or not
ben_vulpes: that is not necessarily the same as "the free market".
Framedragger: as mcconaughey says in that heavy southern accent in dazed and confused, 'alright, alright, alright.'
asciilifeform: from same rag, https://archive.is/ackJI << lulzy typo >> 'Aircraft will be flying early Wednesday over the Washington area as part of regularly scheduled exercises designed to ensure a rapid response to aerial intrustions.'
asciilifeform: i had the misfortune to encounter the 'qualia' thing as a student. barfed mightily.
asciilifeform: the interesting bit omitted here is that this particular statute is written in such a way as to specifically claim jurisdiction over ~everyone~, and not simply usg subjects
asciilifeform: buried in this lengthy turd is the entirely valid observation that 'If Miner i cannot obtain a single block posted before Bi, he quits the business. Therefore, we investigate the time between any two consecutive events. As {Ii} is indeed a Bernoulli process, ... ' (concluding with 'miner cartel is +ev and inevitable')
asciilifeform: 'The paper propose a new proof-of-work mechanism that improves decentralization and reduces the risk of 51% attack without increasing the risk of Sybil attack. This new mechanism introduces a series of principles such as Career open to all talents, without distinction of birth, Distribution according to labor and All Men are created equal.'
pete_dushenski: then no such thing as a proper bookshelf i guess
BingoBoingo: hence 23 inch shelves instead of 24 inch as was planned
asciilifeform used to work with d00d from tw, interestingly a dbtronics greybeard, and asked him 'ready to fight for your motherland against dirty reds' . he looked as if beholding a martian
mircea_popescu: as in they sat around passing a glass pipe, ice ?
a111: Logged on 2016-01-20 03:44 asciilifeform had 'tricks of the unix masters', old maculature crud, on his shelf as a student, and an actual greybeard saw, asked 'where is your 'tricks of the doom masters' to go next to this'
mircea_popescu: as in ufos ?
ben_vulpes: well i read it as "forth chip by chuck moore" and that's more appealing than anything else i've seen.
asciilifeform: when you read it as 'slow fpga' it seems imho less appealing.
ben_vulpes: and in other NICs: "A software-defined full duplex 10baseT Network Interface Controller is implemented as a team of nodes controlling transmit and receive signal pins directly. The signals are conditioned by minimal electrical interface circuitry. External transmit timing is used. The team is designed to function as a memory-mapped device but may be stripped down for direct use by other node teams."
gabriel_laddel_p: As such, I concluded that my rating was (in your view) "teh last straw!111!
gabriel_laddel_p: trinque: I see no one could interpret my rating of BingoBoingo as crying/flailing, and the only "ship" of mine people here have attempted to right is Masamune.
trinque: you should feel honored that folks spent as much time as they did trying to right your ship.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-10 01:08 pete_dushenski: "My overall conclusion is that chickens are just as cognitively, emotionally and socially complex as most other birds and mammals in many areas, and that there is a need for further noninvasive comparative behavioral research with chickens as well as a re-framing of current views about their intelligence."
asciilifeform: it is about as becoming of an adult as trying to speed up bicycle by 'vroom, vrooom, vrooom!'
asciilifeform: always reminds me of this gurl (undergrad) who REALLYWANTED!111 to be a GreatMathematician and decided to... copy the quirks, nervous ticks, of paul erdos. as described in the biography.
asciilifeform: 'It took me a while to overcome my disgust –I am still not fully familiar with the way non-risk takers work; they actually don’t realize that others are not like them, what makes people in the real world tick. No, businessmen as risk takers are not subjected to the judgment of other businessmen, only that of their personal accountant –unless they are peons in a hierarchy...' << ftr this is the allergen that gives asciilifeform
pete_dushenski: "In particular, the avian forebrain (the part of the brain involved in problem-solving and other higher-order cognitive capacities) is actually derived from the same neuroanatomical substrate as the mammalian forebrain, providing more potential evidence for similar cognitive capacities in the two groups (Jarvis et al. 2005)." << see ? just like you and me. ☟︎
pete_dushenski: "My overall conclusion is that chickens are just as cognitively, emotionally and socially complex as most other birds and mammals in many areas, and that there is a need for further noninvasive comparative behavioral research with chickens as well as a re-framing of current views about their intelligence." ☟︎
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, as part of a vast "argentina night life" programme, these nuts banned alcohol on the beaches, and are going around making kids open up their bags and shit.
adlai: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-09#1599879 << despite hating this word (as a medical term, it's about as precise as "caught a cold"), i did use it today for the first time in a while: "technological schizophrenia" is the theory and practice of compartmentalizing/dissociating net use across multiple devices and connections to defeat the whole "google knows she's preggo before she does" ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-01-08 08:02 ben_vulpes: i don't know what sort of apology is due here as clearly nobody has ever even tried to apply those patches through a strict v, but i'm still going to go slam my head in a door until i get some of the stupid out
a111: Logged on 2017-01-09 09:40 Framedragger: yes, there is that model of a woman as someone who is expected to, and is bound to adapt in my mind, too. if she runs away from a dangerous bank robbery scene, it's to be expected. ties into the 'protecting children' function, too. unless she *explicitly* is a heroine.
a111: Logged on 2017-01-09 10:23 davout: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-09#1599723 <<< in my book, running away from a bank robbery scene if you can, qualifies as 'not being a moron', not 'being a coward'
mircea_popescu: it's not altogether clear computizing has to be a sewer. but yes, for as long as one's stuck dealing with a large pile of broken solutions churned out by people who didn't understand the problem nor were aware of the fact...
asciilifeform: programming as a profession is a form of contained insanity.
diana_coman: I suspect "unhappy lives" was/is quite loose as a term
mircea_popescu: follows from the personalization of the relationship to the divine. it's one thing to not manage to imitate the flight of the dragonfly, as michelangelo tried (and yes science is a reinterpretation of the relationship to the divine, doh, what else). it's another to not manage to do what the other guy tells you to.
diana_coman: mircea_popescu, it sounds to me that their unhappiness comes from their own expectation that they are so very best, not from their master's expectations really; if it were from those, then *all* slavegirls would be just as unhappy
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: Coinkite factory holds the keys, so you own that factory you own Coinkite as a whole.
mircea_popescu: it's the inept children flailing AS IF they were women that get the inept child's lot, ie scorn.
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: they fucking upgraded open dime specs as soon as mine arrived. so I sold it to some derpy trader.
Framedragger: well, i'd go so far as to offer some free support to taleb, unfortunately i'm not in his wot; will see...

davout: "It is possible to use a standard p2sh transaction as the attack vector, but it seems to be a transaction that takes no more than 500 msec to be verified." <<< this part confused my parser
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo can stack em as high as 8, and in principle could cover a square mile with 'em
ben_vulpes: there is also http://www.masongreenstar.com/, but yes mostly considering as insulator
mircea_popescu: somewhat odd, i actually see trilema as #2, above reddit and below something called ibtimes
mircea_popescu: the other speaks to accuracy. there is a reason man pages are written by the authors of the software, not by a conclave of self-identified users of said software. a measure of accuracy could certainly be devised whereby the 2nd version is "just as accurate" as a proper man page. nevertheless, it would not in the slightest be INTERESTING.
mircea_popescu: anyway, for the noobs : to specific objections are raised here. one speaks to corectness : a random "reality tv" show may include elements which, inasmuch as they factually exist, are actually true, such as a curb, or a window pane. nevertheless, this does not make the reality tv show MEANINGFUL.
mircea_popescu: i always read it as a "i am dedicated to the empire and won't miss an opportunity to spam its tendrils". exactly the same substance as the "seo expert" pushing colon cleanser or w/e. just vaguely different clothing.
phf: i don't think it's an attempt to establish terminology. i always read it as a herp-a-derp chumminess with a reader "oh maybe you don't know what i'm talking about, i'm going to help you out here"
mircea_popescu: "We've isolated the issue to a blip on an internal service caused by a deploy a few hours ago, which triggered a case where some buggy code incorrectly propagated the errors caused by the malfunction up to our client, that then attempted to retry sending the message. For now, we've reverted the changes and everything looks stable. We're going to investigate this further. As of now, we have a few action items to resolve these
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-01-08#1599505 << mp is in fact approaching the problem of "lord can be given single link pointer can be trusted to figure out the correct tree ; but outsider is much better served by being given block, because outsider ~= retard". so i tend to love ranges for things like "referencing old cannonical thread on periphery such as blog post comments" whereas love line references for "remind someone in c ☝︎

mircea_popescu: but for some reason nobody seems to have an alt preference. such as for instance because they don't exist or i have nfi
