nubbins`: and as a further response, i'd sooner put my eyes out than work in IT again
nubbins`: i actually have no idea how ;;later tell works, you know
nubbins`: ;;later tell KRS1 professionally, i've coded in VB.NET, C#, java, objective-c, plus web-dev-related things like html/xml, js, and sql
Diablo-D3: Ukyo: I set it to the same date.
KRS1: I meant http://cdn.meme.li/i/pekig.jpg
mod6: anyway, i guess i'll get back to it. thanks for the convo.
mod6: i agree, there has to be a better way.
mod6: ahh i see your comment and reply in that article: I believe that efficiency in computer design is a false god. Give me an “inefficient” but responsive and “Seven-Laws Compliant” computer any day of the week in place of the monstrous PC, that race car which regards steering wheel input as mere advice and so eagerly speeds off cliffs and into embankments. << hahaha
mod6: ( i like this thread, even if it leads no-where in particular. just curious, searching for ideas. )
mod6: i guess this might not be relevant.
mod6: i never personally switched to dvorak because the friend that i have who did had the issue of trying to constantly switch everyone elses computer to dvorak if he wanted to use it.
mod6: i mean, the idea of a 'successor of unix' is appleaing to me, eventhough I <3 *nix (in general compared to whatever, windows). it would be amazing to have something abstracted to the level where it can handle physical systems and be virtualized too and be next gen
asciilifeform: mod6: see, i tell people, 'trinary logic, clockless Muller gates, direct execution of high-level language.'
mod6: i agree on philosophy though. why build something that is dependant on something undereath? how does that get one somewhere?
asciilifeform: i'd prefer something that isn't a turd.
asciilifeform: all entirely unnecessary, and crap i want no part of.
Ademan: Dang am I happy I bought asicminer last week, that paid off really quickly
mod6: with any luck i'll get CS working within the libgcrypt framework then can mod gnupg to utilize it.
mod6: thought i should dig into this article & related papers.
mod6: anyway, i was very intetersted in the VPSS scheme even though i'm sort of deep into implementing cramer-shoup into libgcrypt.
asciilifeform: mod6: not like i thought up any of this personally
asciilifeform: simplest way i can think of is rsa with >2 private primes (lamport, or see MP's writeup)
asciilifeform: what i meant was something rather more subtle
mod6: yeah, i like how simplistic it seems.
mod6: haha, i'd like to implement it. but i gotta make sure i have my head wrapped around it first :)
mod6: gd i hate pdfs
mircea_popescu: <kakobrekla> you know what, i think you should talk to ozbot some more. <<
pankkake: I am not arguing for it, I am not weathly enough to make it worthwile anyway
skinnkavaj: I am not
pankkake: I thought you were not daytrading
kakobrekla: you know what, i think you should talk to ozbot some more.
skinnkavaj: pankkake: There was like 5-6 altcoins launched before LTC, but none of them were really good. One was premined, one was scrypt but not premined, LTC was the one that won. Now I am only waiting for the third coin, but that will take a lot of time to be decided.
skinnkavaj: OH yes I do, but I still see it's possible to infiltrate and try to destroy innovation even when it's open sourced.
pankkake: I hope your ltc "investment" decision has better foundations than that "everyone know"
skinnkavaj: pankkake: LTC is the first good copy cat of BTC. And like everyone know the first copycat always succeeds, while the others fail. Look at feathercoin, I don't see any future there.
pankkake: it's bitcoin for people who want to be early adopter or want to use their gaming pcs, which is bad enough. but even ignoring that, I don't see anything compelling
skinnkavaj: pankkake: If you think LTC will be dead in one year you must be blind. I feel sorry for you.
pankkake: source? especially for Armory which I follow closely
skinnkavaj: The secret is not that I am launching a litecoin service
benkay: i'll secrete something
skinnkavaj: pankkake: Next friday I will launch a Litecoin service which will be kept secrete until it's live
pankkake: I mean it looks like there isn't even a web wallet
skinnkavaj: I know
skinnkavaj: about doing an litecoinity version if I pay him
skinnkavaj: I am spending all my LTC
pankkake: I have plenty of time to buy back if there ever is a reason. and here you're just bragging about daily little changes
skinnkavaj: I hold my LTC longterm
skinnkavaj: pankkake: I am not daytrading
pankkake: they check as hard as porn sites who ask you if you are 18 I guess
jurov: i clicked "I disagree" and was let in :D
benkay: i am missing so much context
kakobrekla: bash does have some points im experimenting with i guess
kakobrekla: bash just been flushed, i nuked the current points stats cause some idiot decided to write a bot to fuck with that, so i changed the system a bit and well, truncated teh table.
nubbins`: and i haven't even had to skip a meal yet
nubbins`: i walked away from a stable, high-paying programmer/analyst job this past february to print full-time
_mjoiii: Cause fuck, I can grow my hair.
nubbins`: there are no mistakes, watch the first video i posted ;p
_mjoiii: Pretty sure I just had a flashback with that second one.
nubbins`: ^ this guy is almost completely, perfectly fucked in the head, but i had a moment of epiphany while watching this interview
benkay: put a big enough engine on a brick and *presto* i guess you have an orbital insertion vehicle too
benkay: better you than me. i stopped writing about this highly subjective stuff back when i decided to stop convincing people of things.
mircea_popescu: well, i guess i am writing an article now.
benkay: i find some of j's wordplay rather elegant, myself
jurov: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6660162 asciilifeform you may want to promote phuctor (i would, but no account)
mircea_popescu: i can see it.
benkay: hey man i'm an american idiot
mircea_popescu: i thought rapper guys did it for the principle of the thing.
benkay: i've yet to meet the artist who's a better capitalist than the jiggaman.
KRS1: jay-z..heh..i've seen local rap artists better than him.
nubbins`: ....yes, i can imagine that
nubbins`: i do tend to sweat a lot during dick surgery
nubbins`: i mean, the moon alone is pretty goddamn far away
nubbins`: i wonder at what point leaving earth becomes a bad thing?
deadweasel: 'people ALWAYS be askin' my opinion bro! I'm like the bitcoin oracle...'
nubbins`: <kakobrekla> and everyone wants to hear your opinion <skinnkavaj> I get asked a lot.
BingoBoingo: Yeah, I can't wait till skinnkavaj skins his dick and wears it like a sock for LTC
nubbins`: i'm having dick surgery later this evening, actually
nubbins`: it is always a possibility that i will head down to my basement, grab a claw hammer, and smash my dick with it
nubbins`: <skinnkavaj> (15:18:15) (cryptocyprus) It is always a possibility, litecoin is the only alt I have ever bought and sold, if/when Gox integrates litecoin then there will be more liquidity to make it a more suitable hedge
kakobrekla: mosty its "get lost newb" from what i saw
kakobrekla: skinnkavaj i havent seen a single person asking you for anything
skinnkavaj: I get asked a lot.
skinnkavaj: (15:18:15) (cryptocyprus) It is always a possibility, litecoin is the only alt I have ever bought and sold, if/when Gox integrates litecoin then there will be more liquidity to make it a more suitable hedge
nubbins`: for example, when my eggs were finished cooking, i just tilted the pan and they slid right off onto my plate
kakobrekla: aha i guess that makes sense
zacm: well i hope you take it one step further and use mining heat to cook your next egg
nubbins`: i first got into cast iron after learning that the guy who owns javaranch.com is a huge fan: http://www.richsoil.com/cast-iron.jsp
nubbins`: beauty of cast iron being that i turned off the stove when i removed the hash browns from the skillet
kakobrekla: fuckin i hate their bones.
kakobrekla: i did try it out for a day
b0n1: i remember you did once, right?
b0n1: i think the threat is maybe not doog running, but someone just taking over the site
kakobrekla: is what i do.
kakobrekla: ok i think i understand.
kakobrekla: man this potatio hole is deeper than i though
nubbins`: so once those are done, i cook eggs and toast some delicious Montreal-style bagels
kakobrekla: cause the only brown hash i know is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hashish
kakobrekla: i like potato so keep talking
kakobrekla: i still dont undestand, what am i looking at
kakobrekla: else i might do it
