mircea_popescu: 1D37yABoLo7Ma4LeR6jW8ZhJxLXdQmsbsH if i select compressed.
mircea_popescu: 3ab7aea90551ed0bebc37b66dae9ff9f89e60e15d9cc85ab76c922322a88b033 5JG9SZLueh5AcJEvMeZrNT3oHEd27hhUrFydq4EVVWC2RoXFc3S
mircea_popescu: you mean to tell me you reverse-engineered the privkey on the basis of the address ?
mircea_popescu: i had my first legal drink in... 1990 ? something like that.
mircea_popescu: which, incidentally, ima make a post about, cause this is starting to coallesce in my head.
mircea_popescu: similarly of, "i have no interest signing other people's code"
mircea_popescu: and this is a cognate of "there's no point getting in the wot, i have real world friends"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform this is much weaker than your original statement tho
mircea_popescu: incidentally, it occurs to me that while some start-ups succeed, a vast majority suckceed.
mircea_popescu: you can at the very least obtain the "most likely to fuckceed" information on a set of identifiable, different providers.
mircea_popescu: not so. this is like saying "the only way to identify boys from girls is as you're moaning".
mircea_popescu: the way to know how long your cock is is to ask god, because obviously measurement will yield an error.
mircea_popescu: i don't see how a case can be different from any other in a system where "one can make any declaration"
mircea_popescu: the wot, incidentally, works on exactly the same premise. one can make any declaration one wishes. it's not believed per se, but that's irrelevant. as time goes by confirmation either mouts or does not.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: punkman: they could at least vaguely describe their process/tools << and you'll believe? << for the record, description is not strictly a belief-driven phenomenon. consider at its most basic, schooling. teacher describes to you grammar. do you believe ? no, if you're in any way sane, not right off. but eventually what was a hypothesis gets tested out.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` see how much better life is here in the paradise of proper error messages ?
mircea_popescu: i guess best practice, "1st check deed signature, then hash to verify deed".
mircea_popescu: i think always trailing comma, but anyway, your 1st sha is off ?
mircea_popescu: so the more likely hypo is "osx fucks up characters yo!"
mircea_popescu: 1st shasum ik get 1d834ceaf8b81bd9f53dec3f4befd06f65ee422248f2c2edaf55e825bd2228c0 in any case.
mircea_popescu: nubbins`'s host kicked him off the internets because he has been posting base58 strings to irc.
mircea_popescu: gernika if you like to hang out with expats/foreign kids the palermos and perhaps ricoletta.
mircea_popescu: so we can verify you did in fact follow the instruction rather than honestly think you did.
mircea_popescu: "don't work" is the best error message, after... anything else.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you know it was listed like 5 times in da log ? most recently an hour ago ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo if only he could be teamed up with templeos guy.
mircea_popescu: this is beneficial tho, i had some good lolz reading the support tickets earlier in logs
mircea_popescu: im just here eating cookies and giving him a hard time.
mircea_popescu: punkman: asciilifeform: cazalla: little to gain, plenty to lose << but they could at least vaguely describe their process/tools << asciilifeform yes, nobody requires them to send sample units. something like "we're buying atmospheric noise off random.org folks" or "sixty free cs servers, and we suck the urand pool dry" or w/e.
mircea_popescu: undertand, shipping is a solved problem. it just costs money, but it's not the case that consumer mail is all there is.
mircea_popescu: Duffer1 he has a point tho, museums routinely pay exorbitant fees to move their fragile shoit around.
mircea_popescu: people can reconstruct tits and virginity. you telling me they can't remake a board edge ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform tbh i always wondered about the "shipping economically" part. surely 100lbs worth of various things have been shipped before, even in the us ?
mircea_popescu: mats_cd03 as in, didn't understand taleb's point ? or as in what ?
mircea_popescu: cazalla: question if anyone can help - is there a genuine security reason for someone to refuse to disclose how they generate entropy for the private keys contained in their physical bitcoin coin products? << not really, no. other than "we don't have a clue how it's done but this is sekoority and so being mysterious is the next best thing"
mircea_popescu: apple it's what yahoo has aspired at all these years. if they had any sense, they wouldn't have hired melissa no clue, they'd have hired jobs back then
mircea_popescu: don't forget that. apple isn't a tech company, it's a media company.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> who in his right mind would consider 'apple', for instance, if microshit did not exist << i don't run a windows machine. for me ms might as well not exist. however, i did get apple powered tablet to check out their game marketplace.
mircea_popescu: undata well they made their own web.py class structure, back then
