adlai: /pm bsm117532 or whatever his nick is
today :(
adlai: AIUI (and
that's capitalized for a reason -- he may disagree with me, as might any other educated reader of his papers and drafts) ,
there could be a system wherein clients publish blocks at some frequency, wherein some of
the blocks are not valid "bitcoin-according-to-satoshi" blocks, but you still get a sense of how likely is
the apparance of
the next "bitcoin-as-in-satoshi" block
adlai: currently,
the confirmation value has a resolution of ~minuties
adlai: well... i'm not certain
that bsmblahblah can produce an algorithm which will be softforked by existing btcminers, and never revoked (ie, miners fired) by existing holders; but he's
trying
to give a more-quantifiable "confirmation" value
mircea_popescu: as well as making a
text-only client
to obviate
the obnoxious gfx
thing
adlai suddenly corrects himself -- pete_dushenski was not part of
the highlight. whether he was a member of
the can-encrypt set, is a matter
too deep
to reversee in /me's current state
☟︎ adlai: for
this reason, btw, i'm quite pissed
that ben_vulpes deeds his shit at deedbot's L1
adlai: because i'm a better
troll
than publicistL
adlai: he's
trying
to fix
the latency issue. i'm not sure it can be fixed, but he's
trying.
☟︎ adlai: well,
the bsmprimeprimeprimeprimeprime guy has been publishing reasonably intelligent material for a while
adlai knows
that he works for 'ledger x'
adlai: (ftr - guy paid me
to write it, i didn't, sent back coin, he sent back 1/3 coin for
the "research" i did
thus far, and wants it completed someday)
adlai really owes some meatwot guy
the spamatron, could use an excuse
to build it
☟︎ adlai: the eagles saved sam and frodo (in
that order -- who even even gave a shit about
the ringbearer?)
adlai: ...
that's a long-to-archive /stream!
shinohai: That's an interesting
though .....
a111: Logged on 2016-10-03 18:26 mircea_popescu: if anyone is inclined
to maintain forks of any linux distro (much in
the manner of
trb -
to clean, not
to "support"/utf/systemd/etc) we can prolly work something out.
mircea_popescu: for a moment
there i
thought kerry was diagnosed with cancer and is leaving his diamonds
to orphans or somesuch
mircea_popescu: "I am Mr. John Forbes Kerry, United States Secretary of State by profession.
This is
to inform you officially
that after our investigations with
the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and other Security Agencies in
the Country for
the year ended 2015, we discovered
that you have not receive your fund."
mircea_popescu: the wonderment is how much of
the crap
to preserve on
the way
there and in which order
trinque: this handily solves
the "I linked
this motherfucking item in
this state" not "well y'know, it used
to be over here ..."
trinque: going over it again, it appears
to reduce
to gossiping vpatches and seals of a format which can reference vpatch hashes.
trinque: the browser and "cache" is replaced by a proper database which stacks
these items and creates a www locally. whether items were retained would be a matter of implementation (perhaps some measure of proximity
to one's own wot, or
the operator having given
the item his V-tronic seal)
trinque: atop gossipd I
think
the *entire* "this website"
thing goes, replaced by "I would like
the
thing identified by hash ..., do my friends have it?"
trinque: it's a second place for namespacing aside
the URL, which ~is simply wwwcruft
mircea_popescu: trinque yeah
thinking about it i am not sure we actually wish
to salvage
that particular aspect altogether. do we ?
ben_vulpes: i can get more ips, did not expect
this caltrop
mircea_popescu: i have plenty spare ; i guess in my head it's a
thing in
the vein of
the megawatt standard.
trinque: whole
thing is broken until gossipd-year-0
trinque: how otherwise
to abandon using DNS?
mircea_popescu: there's better ways
to handle passwords
than
to ask people
to alias
things
ben_vulpes: if you hit
the ip raw
that's all you'll get
ben_vulpes: and in other recent lolz, a block just came
through with 2
transactions in it including
the coinbase
pete_dushenski: bbl. !!ratings removed from directory until further notice from
trinque.
scriba: Something went wrong while attempting
to read
the log.
trinque: the damn horses, hold
them.
ben_vulpes: i'm fair loathe
to make more entries in an informal, non-republican dht
trinque: isn't on
there
though, gimme sec ben_vulpes
ben_vulpes: pete_dushenski: plz
to add ratings
to bots.contravex
a111: Logged on 2016-10-03 20:49 mircea_popescu: who
the fuck meditates.
ben_vulpes does not feel like combing
through deedbot's sexpr output at
this moment
a111: Logged on 2016-10-03 20:54 ben_vulpes: shana
tova
a111: Logged on 2016-10-03 22:22 asciilifeform:
the second prong of
this, as described in
the leaked mit slides last year, is
to declare unbelted coin 'terrorist' and simultaneously shitcoin it from use at coinbase, bitpay, etc.
a111: Logged on 2016-10-03 16:46 mircea_popescu: how is it
that
the republic can do just fine progressing at
the clip of its own progress, no faster
than
that, nor slower ; and
that while we don't specifically wnat
to "do
things" or set goals, nevertheless we do
things and achieve (other people's) goals ?

pete_dushenski: asciilifeform: lol you're joking rite. no city ? anywhere ?
try
THE ENTIRETY of airstrip one.
the whole
thing. it's one big
trap of 'time from a
to b should be =<x or else
ticket mailed
to house'
ben_vulpes: "fuck i look like? i'm lookin for a bitch
that can fuck right, cook right. and if not,
then left foot, right, get
to steppin, yeah bitch walk like."
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform:
tire's emissivity implies decent conversion of non-ir wavelengths
to heat, is
this mistaken?
