spyked: it's entirely my fault for posting on half-a-blog (without comments and trackbacks) for all this time
spyked: meanwhile, I'll do something similar to last time: I'll reproduce the comment ad literam at the end of the post and answer below it. and until this is solved, I personally don't mind taking comments here or in any other channel that I reside in (e.g. #spyked)

spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-26#1925066 <-- the irony being that thetarpit comments implementation is dependent on the www server discussed in the post. the good part about this is that I should be able to do something about this soon; prolly not in the next 2-3 posts, but much sooner than I was before starting work on this. ☝︎

spyked: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-26#1925061 <-- yes indeed! the graphviz src file is at http://thetarpit.org/uploads/2019/07/hunchentootarch.dot , as linked from http://thetarpit.org/posts/y06/097-hunchentoot-iii.html#fn2 ☝︎

ave1: I was expecting that (and thinking about it in fact).
mp_en_viaje: in other supporting news, the punishment for interrupting me in the harem is often a fate worse than lashing.
ave1: yes, *fuck* I just got interrupted and now the whole idea about reading the log and *not* directly writing down reactions (if any ofcourse), gone..
mp_en_viaje: i know of no other definition for "life of the mind" besides this. this is what that is.
mp_en_viaje: and when it isn't, can't find shit, get pissed off, throw things around, think about how to fix the structure so doesn't recurr...
mp_en_viaje: large portion of why i don't even do non-irc, wtf "voicecall" bs. if i explain it here, i know i have ~at least enough~ to reconstruct later ; and that is good enough.
mp_en_viaje: quite. every possible event, even "unrelated" events is a rock thrown in the pond. now get it to reflect again, why not, what, you can't recompute wavefunctions for 10e30 particles in your head on the fly ?
ave1: As my job is now mostly communicating, I see the same thing with *meetings*. I explained the idea just fine and now the writing down becomes impossible, *because of that meeting*.
mp_en_viaje: quite. and then memory fades, and reinterprets, and soon enough all that;s left in the head is a list of proofs that each possible approach is actually unauthentic.
ave1: yes, the "I'll write it down later". And then later, no way you get it to come out as intended. Although the idea is still in my head.
mp_en_viaje: chiefly because, soon enough it manages to ratchet itself into being strictly impossible.
mp_en_viaje: then on the other hand, waiting until $whatever is ALSO inconvenient.
mp_en_viaje: everyone else'd just sleep, because sure as fuck catering to one's intellectual life is way the fuck inconvenient, who the fuck even heard of inane shit like "interrupt partying to note"
mp_en_viaje: yeah. this is a lifelong thing, getting ironed out just about permanently.
ave1: My first fault was to not directly write these thoughts down. Now I have (1) a backlog of items already taken in (2) had to spent an hour making the post.
mp_en_viaje: i suppose the slogan for this'd be "agreement isn't learning like ritalin isn't medicine and global warming isn't science"
ave1: mp_en_viaje: yes, that is the intended purpose, I hope I'll get some reactions if not at least it could work as a reference to my future self (how could I be so fucking stupid as to not see...)
mp_en_viaje: meanwhile, light fucking hurts, thanks god for blockout curtains.
mp_en_viaje very much prefers being "that idiot who can't even" to anything else, if in exchange the typical esr-tardisms as per above don't get a foothold.
mp_en_viaje: symbols and tools to satisfactorily (nevermind correctly, that's not a subjective step) state the private symbols in one's head, learning is simply off the table.
mp_en_viaje proposes ~the absence~ of ave1 's last post (as a class of item) as the principal failing of non-critical cultures. it's true that the fat old women participating don't have to deal with the "emotional pain" of fatness or oldness being discussion. in exchange however, the price one pays is that aves can't learn lisp. because if you don't have a space where to explain why you think it's stupid, nor an infrastructure of ready
mp_en_viaje: in other "so fucking cute omg", > Dear blog, Yesterday I started to learn the LISP language.
mp_en_viaje: the likely reason you got no answer is that indeed you need a rating, and that it takes up to 1 day for ratings to propagate
trinque: dorion: the bot is as far as I can tell accessible.
BingoBoingo: ^ trinque
dorion: Prior to receiving a rating, I pm'd deedbot !!deposit 0.05, never received a response. After receiving BingoBoingo's rating, I sent same pm, never received a response. Is this the expected behavior? Were previous requests dropped on floor? I'd prefer to clarify prior to sending another request in case the prior are in a queue and the documentation is a bit terse.
asciilifeform: in other interestings, apparently there ain't a detectable bottleneck in 'm', other than tlbism
mp_en_viaje: want to get the benefit of the comment in produces, not just waste it.
mp_en_viaje: im guessing for this one time http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/fn1VH/?raw=true will have to be it ; but for the love of christ, what are you doing to me here ? am i going to simply ignore your articles because i know for a fact i'm not interestreded in reading something i can't comment on and you're forcing on me the dilemma of either not commenting at all or else losing it in pastes ? this won't do, if i use an hour to read a post i ☟︎☟︎
mp_en_viaje: evidentklu, gold safer than bitcoin.
diana_coman: spyked: is that generated manually with graphviz? ☟︎
asciilifeform: spyked: that thing is srsly neato, and i want one
asciilifeform: there's even a code for it in the shrink standard docs iirc.
asciilifeform: iirc in erry city police station in usa, erry yr they get 1 or 2 folx walking in and insisting they killed kennedy / 'did 9/11' / etc.
asciilifeform: PeterL: why not, try it, next time you're there. drown'em in paper..

PeterL: Would they let you voluntarily fill out the form for amounts under the official limit?
asciilifeform: not to mention, the 'excel spreadshit' people are dumb, but not so dumb that can't do addition.
asciilifeform: PeterL: tricky bit is, you have nfi what is the constant until the van shows up.
a111: Logged on 2019-07-26 14:16 asciilifeform: converting zek zone electro-scrip to physical money remains tricky
PeterL: http://btcbase.org/log/2019-07-26#1925029 << you can withdraw > 5+ zeros of cash, you just have to fill out a form to do so. You only get in trouble if you withdraw just below the limit and it looks like you are trying to avoid filling out the form. ☝︎
dorion: yeah well, through fed linked correspondent banks pressure is applied abroad. I worked for "offshore" bank (europacbank.com), quickly learned money isn't offshore. in reality bank has omnibus type account on correspondent's servers.
asciilifeform: dorion: it's not there against mp_en_viaje & co., either, folx with serious money have ~0 problem moving it. it's there against 'engineer saves 100k and escapes from gulag to live rest of his days without working for reich' etc.
asciilifeform: dorion: most usaschwitz inmates never come close to rubbing against this fence, cuz elementarily 0 money
dorion: when bsa went before supreme court, part of ruling was since so few transactions over $10k, not a burden to banks. nixon closed gold window ~10 months after bill was passed.
asciilifeform: 'for what do you need sack of benjies, terrorist, honest folk are happy to use electro-scrip' !
dorion: yeah, e.g. if you do several sequential 9k, they're going to at least ask.
asciilifeform: dorion: bush-II amended. exact magic # was made seekrit, and changes periodically, and to attempt to determine it is itself considered criminal
dorion: asciilifeform my understanding is since bank secrecy act (1970), transactions over $10k result in suspicious activity report filing.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: when loading up for last coupla trips to outside of gulag, found that can withdraw nomoar than 600 (us) iirc per diem
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: i'd expect. but process for baking these in usa is ~same as to get benjies
diana_coman: hm, you mean even over time i.e. simply total? ( /me has no idea re USA banks, for sure)
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, you can prolly cash traveller cheques in amts of yoru choice locally, if nothing else.
asciilifeform: ( what ~did~ at one pt step on, was, worked in a thing that paid -- by paper cheque -- quarterly, and depositing these took ~month, as the bank monkeys 'scheduled calls' with gestapo to Properly Register the 'suspicious' )
asciilifeform: diana_coman: reportedly, if you do it in mp_en_viaje-grade qtys , will find that acct locked. but i have not personally stepped, of yet, on this mine
diana_coman: asciilifeform: do they literally stop you/block your account from taking money out daily or something?
dorion: ty mp_en_viaje I am Robinson Dorion, the someone BingoBoingo mentioned had inquired about the rk. Plan is to sync a trb node there.
asciilifeform: converting zek zone electro-scrip to physical money remains tricky ☟︎
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, i dunno, haven't tried anything else.
asciilifeform: was looking for that link! ty
asciilifeform: you gotta physically bring a sack of actual physical money tho, i expect
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, if you care, nobody gives a shit, not here, not in belarus, not in warsaw, can change all the money you want, whatevs.
asciilifeform: mp_en_viaje: iirc there is to this day an interesting diff : in nato jets, the 'you will soon [fly into ground/eat rocket/flame out engine] !' taped voice in cockpit, is of whiny chix; but in ru jets, man's voice
mp_en_viaje: remember that ?
mp_en_viaje: got them nice & pale.
mp_en_viaje: and how the flares went, and whet the ywere, "remembver in that minsk day post, the plane fireworks ?"
mp_en_viaje: there was some turbulence in flight, right ? and i explained to the gals all about the "sukhoi locked youi" wooop wooop alarm

mp_en_viaje: though i must confess in my old age i like the rus' hounds a lot less than i did in muh youths.
mp_en_viaje: well, karnak temple...
mp_en_viaje: asciilifeform, short of panface girl lands, tbh
asciilifeform: (iirc even tip of antarctica..)
mp_en_viaje: it's tjhere!
asciilifeform has no particular desire to go to ukristan lol
mp_en_viaje: beat you to it huh
diana_coman: lol! yes, HATO has a certain sound to it
diana_coman: seeing how they are to the east, it's almost an achievement if they end up west-like though
mp_en_viaje: basically, the belarussians are derpy like they're russian periphery, and the ukrs are derpy like they're romanian periphery.
mp_en_viaje: it's basically greater timisoara, somewhat larger, somewhat more decrepit, ~same really.
diana_coman: lolz, what did the ukr do?

PeterL: I have seen some places (like the credit union I use) that have added a "webchat" feature to their websites, I much prefer using this over calling to talk to somebody
