asciilifeform: anyone who is concerned about a hypothetical openssh apocalypse should consider 'port knocking.'
mircea_popescu: mike_c: well, didn't you hear? mp is extradited to antartica to face AEC security fraud charges. << no dude, i just had an argument with a bottle of wine and some lazagna.
asciilifeform: it is quite impossible to sell a vuln this way. other than to suckers, of course.
mircea_popescu: the average time for you to catch a 2nd team using your exploit would be, a decade to a century. and this only if they're clueless enough to go after random boxes.
mircea_popescu: so a team advanced enough to have had a leet 0day for two years and enough honeypots to catch a 2nd team in time
asciilifeform: there is no way for a buyer to determine that product is genuine prior to payment
mircea_popescu: "(Yes, we build honeypots rules for our exploits)" this seems weak. imagine the odds someone using it actually fell on a honeypot they ran.
mircea_popescu: Mircea Popescu @Mircea_Popescu @acav Being privileged is being the good guy. If the other guy weren't a lazy fuckwit, he'd be privileged too.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves: heh a major investor of Ripple is also one for Pando << you're starting to see why we want pando outcompeted :)
mircea_popescu: davout: it's just in the continuation of debt money, it's not really a competitor to bitcoin in any way << logically, as the statists keep getting beaten out of things, they'll regroup around similar-looking, similar-sounding, different things. again and again and again.
BingoBoingo: mod6: Maybe. They already have a useful version of that. I'm more refering to their having a working LibreSSL package, their fork from OpenSSL
mod6: BingoBoingo: sounds like a good route to go. why november?
mod6: 'tis a good question tho BingoBoingo
BingoBoingo: benkay: Yeah, but the brake generally is the thing you more urgently need, and that usually still has a mechanical rather than electronic link
benkay: i've always wanted to wire a ps2 controller into 'automatic' cars.
BingoBoingo: WTF, next do we get a button for brake and gas?
ozbot: A Pragmatic Test for Alcoholism | Bingo Blog
BingoBoingo: http://www.thedrinkingrecord.com/2014/05/05/a-pragmatic-test-for-alcoholism/
artifexd: Note that I'm not saying this is a smart service to use, but its existence is theoretically possible.
artifexd: Imagine a web service where you send it some txids and the necessary private keys along with a destination address. This service, when it gets a few requests, combines all the inputs and sends them to the outputs.
jurov: but if coinjohn is a thing, reusing addy definitely leaks more information about owner
mod6: at some point, i'll be adding an block average time over a 24 hour interval too.
mod6: BingoBoingo: thx. just saw you were lookin for that one command a few days back. :]
artifexd: Maybe you and I get together and combine our funds to pay a common bill.
jurov: address does not have a balance, that is an illusion
jurov: look onto it this way: forget addresses, they're just a convenience for humans and are not strictly needed in the blockchain
jurov: gets sloshed together in a reused address <<FALSE
bitcoinpete: dignork: the rounder, more even number is usually a bit of a giveaway
dignork: bitcoinpete: in case of "change address" there is a slight advantage: observer does not really knows which one of the destination addresses is change, and which is vendor
bitcoinpete: since everything gets sloshed together in a reused address, the taint is less clearcut, as i understand it
bitcoinpete: but i'm more clear than i was a week ago
jurov: Part 1: In which Ivan from Havelock explains they are a platform for funding development of new projects exclusively
BingoBoingo: jurov: That's why you turn it into a serial.
BingoBoingo: jurov: You just laid out a way to publish the stuff. Each month gets a post, one post per week.
mike_c: that is a good reason :) still, it would make quite a blog post.
BingoBoingo: Haven't had a drink in days and no Delerium tremens
Guest95361: Although then again you rely on the fact that I don't use a VPN for that part
BingoBoingo: a narrowing is a narrowing
benkay: Guest95361: you understand why this is a weak play, right?
BingoBoingo: This is a common refrain, but an also common lack of disclosure and documentation (re: licenses and permits)
BingoBoingo: mike_c: Yeah. It's hard telling what Havelock's thing is, but if S.Dice got MP a letter...
assbot: I don't give a shit who saw what and who did what or who did who.
bitcoinpete: ha! havelock's first tweet since nov 1, 2013 is a pic of a fight they're sponsoring in panama
Namworld: You might have to wait a while for that tho.
Namworld: Plus even if you have a clue, might not always be right.
Namworld: Yeah, but they can't just let anyone order whatever. They can't make the difference between a junky, a hypochondriac and someone with a clue. Plus lawsuits and all that.
BingoBoingo: The worst part is the prescribe the exact same thing I would have prescribed myself if I could just go to the pharmacy with a shopping list like an actual human being at a store
Naphex: probably just a scam to get foolish scriptkids too pay for fake 0day
BingoBoingo: mod6: Which thing, I'm still catching up on logs. will take a while.
Namworld: Thanks to the miracle of whois, I'm receiving phone calls about a car in the parking lot.
davout: guess i'm missing a lot of context here
asciilifeform: the only thing there seems to be a kind of general agreement about is that the folks inside were fleeing from raging mob, and barricaded themselves in
davout: there seems to be in a pair of pictures, the implication that one of the dead dudes was also present at some protest
bounce: huh, serious optimism waiting at the bus in ankle deep ice water. here the busses'll stop going at a few cm snow
fluffypony: I would float a mini-titanic around them
fluffypony: Naphex: I hear you've been having fun weather that side of the planet: http://imgur.com/a/ZYFTi
Naphex: but i use a protobuf-like protocol in binary for the server backend
Naphex: yeah, i was evaluating other protocols and did a fix impl for tests.
Naphex: davout: i had a fix interface in master for a while but no point in launching it, 0 demand
davout: kakobrekla: i have a FIX interface in one the pans that's currently cooking
fluffypony: I would never in a million years use it for something that is critical/financial
fluffypony: for $5 a month I get an SSL cert and can use a snake-oil self-signed on the server
Naphex: mike_c: i use a industrial dc, usually services high end clients that have their own admins and servers
mike_c: that sounds like a rosy assessment of DC's. where the hell do you host?
Naphex: use a good DC and you will get most services top notch, imo
Naphex: you pay for a varnish cache and a nginx ssl PT
davout: i really can't believe they have such a thing...
danielpbarron: i got like 500 free dogecoins a while back; turned it into BTC (what's that, a couple hundred satoshi?)
fluffypony: because on a scale of 1 to reasons-to-be-bullish-on-an-altcoin, being able to sell an inflatable penguin is right up there with "has the word Dark in the name"
fluffypony: "ohai don't use a centralised provider...except us for your webwallet. we're fine."
davout: fluffypony: "don't like wormy apples? have a steak instead"
danielpbarron: Rulother: if you auth with gribble, i'll give you a +1 so you can voice yourself in the future
Rulother: More so a lurker in here
danielpbarron: but I haven't been here a year
Rulother: Well nothing really, just on my auto list and been coming here for a little over a year
bounce: cmake isn't a make replacement, it's a autofools replacement, loaded with colourfully painted godawful bikesheds and inducing more dependency pressure on the most common user (the non-dev compiler)
asciilifeform: , and could not fathom how to modify its tools without making a whole new language.'
asciilifeform: 'A "new" language that differs from the rest of the crop by one or a couple features is proof positive that both what it came from and what it has become are mutations about to die. There are tens if not hundreds of thousands of such "languages" that people have invented over the yeare, for all sorts of weird purposes where they just could not use whatever language they were already using, could not extend it
bounce: my pet theory is that there's a class of kids fascinated with building tools but aren't quite cut out to write compilers... so they stick to make "replacements" instead.
bounce: what was that kid again that distributed a bit of crappy code with a makefile containing a few lines of irc log that "everybody" just copies and pastes the rules, atop a list of rules that miraculously work some of the time altough most of them were written the wrong way around?
mike_c: built by same guy as perforce i believe, which i am a fan of.
bounce: ``Jam is a small open-source build tool that can be used as a replacement for Make.'' -- this is where I stop reading.
pankkake: benkay: blame jimmothy, or http://www.btcalpha.com/blog/2014/a-year-of-s-mpoe/ ?
pankkake: or it's a joke about pancakes :)
pankkake: altering a few values, and running make, sure :D
bounce: agreed. looking at the differences is interesting in a chinese sort of way, though.
bounce: "if we can't follow your every move (financially), you must be a terrorist (financier)" -- nothing like fat budgets to engender some more groupthink and target innovations like bitcoin. can someone please put the usg out of our misery?
gribble: nubbins` was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 1 week, 2 days, 18 hours, 18 minutes, and 57 seconds ago: <nubbins`> was going through a real meatspace phase D;
mike_c: not really a ponzi then, just straight stealing.
punkman: have a look at http://www.talkgold.com/
fluffypony: mike_c: they won't make a single payment
mike_c: i don't even see how you can ponzi at 50% a month. that is insane.
kakobrekla: its a ponzi
fluffypony: mike_c: but it has a chart!
chetty: certainly has a certain fragrance
mike_c: making 50% a month? panacea oughta put their money with these guys.
mike_c: is that a word? you mean grazie?
pankkake: I'm now getting quantum physics spam (in French). apparently, it's a new way of healing
fluffypony: because Danny has committed a Very Seriouz Felony (tm)
ThickAsThieves: probably just someone has a buttload of mpoe and unloads once in a while when they can
