mod6: gonna try doing some refridgerator pickles first. will "can" a few probably when i get a few more... excited to try this out
mod6: mine grew a lot too. i did harvest a few pickling cucumbers today. at least enough for two Kerr jars worth.
BingoBoingo: Meanwhile here in the Middle West we are solidly in neither drought nor flood. June teased a drought, but storms have regularly been dropping 1-4 inches of rain at a time.
mircea_popescu: in turkey they lost the buckets : http://67.media.tumblr.com/c14704d9ab10a9b208345bae905eedb7/tumblr_niewk6Q9OW1tkw5l1o1_500.jpg
BingoBoingo: Well, in California they had to ground the bucket drop planes due to smoke
mircea_popescu: mod6 that's the idea yes
mod6: once we're happy with what they look like, we can deedbot 'em.
BingoBoingo: More or less burning than California?
mod6: so anyway, i'll prepare the rest of these as well as a more refined disclaimer. clearsign them, and pass 'em around for some testing.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> so apparently turkey's burning up << yeah saw that.
mod6: this is even a bit easier than i thought, looks like uudecode will just take the whole ball of wax and parse out the base64 part on its own:

mircea_popescu: so apparently turkey's burning up
mod6: i'll prepare them in this way, and re-discuss when i have 'em. probably in a day or two.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> no good with the "reference" the thing, because you can get the thing without the reference, see ? << very much agree.
mod6: which, was my first trial. the only thing about this approach is that then to extract (uudecode), one must strip out the clearsigning text as well as the comment. not horrible, just an extra step.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 how do you add comment with armor ? << yeah, there'd be no comment in the gpg armor'd artifacts. this would only be possible with using the uuencoded archives, placing a comment in the top, and then clearsigning the whole thing.
mircea_popescu: and in other train-ing, http://67.media.tumblr.com/e9aaef655de4fdd1acb633b5da3088e7/tumblr_njgjyy8e8n1tulo74o1_500.gif

BingoBoingo: From the mines: "Why do fat women always think theyre the ones being cat called on the side walk? Ive always been teeny tiny.. somehow with a big rack and no ass (i call it my lack there of or white girl 90's butt). Ive always been hollared at. I dont mind, I actually like it but everytime Im with a beefalo (which is rare) and positive attention is given they are repulsed and act offended. Like bitch that hobo was asking me to s his d no
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> reignited bromantic passion ahahaha << Well Merkel might have many things, but one of them is not going to be "romance" unless preceeded by the letter b
mod6: Think that sounds ok?
mod6: So was thinking, make these four as deeds, then create a follow on deed that is a disclaimer that references the four artifact deeds - stating that the archive extracted will have the following hashes and that my signature doesn't declare that I have written or read the code. Something to that effect.
mod6: For instance, here's trinque's results: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/ee51a593-445a-4cfe-98bc-093f47ae8310/?raw=true
mod6: I had shinohai and trinque both check my signed files and they confirm that it looks good (i tested on a variety of env's myself)
mod6: it turns out that the base64 encodings are ~5-10k bytes larger, it's pretty close, but it's nice with the `gpg --armor --sign` since you can verify and extract all in one step.
mod6: So tried out a few different things with signing the artifacts:

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-24#1509681 << what's unreasonable is the religious belief that the drowning man is in a position to teach the bird flight. ☝︎

BingoBoingo: No One Could Have Predicted an injury common to athletes could have happened to someone competing in an athletics
BingoBoingo: "The patient sued the physician assistant and the supervising physician. During discovery, the PA testified that he had considered the diagnosis of compartment syndrome, but had never seen a case of compartment syndrome in his career."
mats: no idea what that means
mircea_popescu: and in other toilet humour/news, http://67.media.tumblr.com/da36874124b4866bf7da66387a3104ad/tumblr_nf1h2pDkFG1t87396o1_500.gif
mircea_popescu: mats> what am i missing here << generally, one has to gain his own skin.
BingoBoingo: Chicago may have "Irish" but since St Louis's settled in south city interbred with other palefaces readily, same with Italians. Poles though settled in North City.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Around these parts Irish are largely assimilated into larger class of "white folk"
asciilifeform: or also there
asciilifeform: the irish are through?
asciilifeform: visit bmore, ask the embattled polacks
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-24#1509650 << to suppose that the untermenschen have help, say, from the same folks who moved them into the american cities , squeezing out the catholics in carefully planned and methodical war, to begin with - is not unreasonable. ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: the correct answer, from the twin standpoints of reliability and fits-in-head - is bitcoinfs.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-24#1509621 << i missed this, but it deserves a response. the idea of 'fixing' here is a misconception, because using a non-purposebuilt db is precisely the problem, and intrinsically sucks, consider the miseries of bdb - barely works for the task ☝︎
BingoBoingo: Never could have predicted that despite all the "summer of forks" bluster that everything but Bitcoin would be devastated by forks and coup attempts.
deedbot: [Qntra] On Eve Of Convention Democrats Rewriting History Of Their Party - http://qntra.net/2016/07/on-eve-of-convention-democrats-rewriting-history-of-their-party/
BingoBoingo: ^ asciilifeform I guess the absence of aftermath details is the lulz
BingoBoingo: It's not that they have anything to gain. It is that they desperately need to clean this wound before everyone smells them going septic.
BingoBoingo: The part where they had the classic ethereum anyways and likely wanted to head off the pain in court by giving the tokens to the victims they tried to steal them from when they first decided to pretend the tokens didn't exist.
mats: even under the mp premise that there is no real money in play here - dueling forks cannot possibly go well for public idiot confidence in the scheme
mats: i don't see what poloniex and bitfinex have to gain by including 'ethereum classic' along with 'ethereum'
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: Eh, kind of a maybe. ALso seems like there could be some missing zeroes
shinohai: thestringpuller: inching to #5 on coinmarketcap xD
mircea_popescu: supposedly this is how spamblogs get banned by google, or something.
mircea_popescu: and in further lulz re http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-24#1509652 i've just had it pointed out that the string "Who were the idiots who valued this scam at $9B and what responsibility do they bear? An experiment, by its very ..." which leads the google description of item 4 (experiment and scandal - AVC) is not actually present on the page. ☝︎
thestringpuller: ;;later tell BingoBoingo http://ix.io/1722
mircea_popescu: so it kinda feels charitable to link them.
mircea_popescu: absolutely no comments/interest whatsoever from anyone, of course, much like "gotham girl" joanne wilson, much like just about each and every one of the paper hopes pushing crowd.
mircea_popescu: and since we're doing "obscure nobodies from the fiat-aspie side" for altogether unclear reasons, http://lockhartsteele.com/blog/
mircea_popescu: not how this game works.
mircea_popescu: "At this point the Dindu game is so much more sophisticated than the Pig game, one is tempted to surmise that federal operatives are advising the Dindu cadres." <<< that one is so tempted only speaks of the mangina-tastic quality of that one. really, so married to the belief that there's a meta-nsa in the sky, that all quality automatically gotta be allocated to IT ? ☟︎
mircea_popescu: there must be an app for that.
BingoBoingo: Given how shitty the typical www browser is I wonder how the average suburban US pinoy can enter an order without crashing
BingoBoingo: Not laggy because traffic. I mean laggy because of all the fucking widgets that have nothing to do with ordering.
mircea_popescu: anyway, laggy because victim of its own success, what with the latest lulz.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: How do people seriously expect to trade on such a laggy piece of shit?
BingoBoingo: Also at some point someone may build a bash again and need to find all the $b
mircea_popescu: best leave it as is, human user ignores the $s if he wants to
mircea_popescu: phf i thought about that. if it doesn't, it should really simply ignore $s lines when searching. the problem is that sometimes searches carry metasyntactic value.
phf: it probably shouldn't count the query itself?
BingoBoingo: Just waiting to stumble into the right detail.
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: I've got this storm on the weather beat.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> also no qntra or logz mention of the german snackbar? << At this point I'm combing for reaction lulz
a111: Logged on 2016-07-24 17:19 asciilifeform: also no qntra or logz mention of the german snackbar?
thestringpuller: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-07-24#1509605 << If editor in chief doesn't want to cover it himself, I'll take a whack at it later today. Looks like more scoop is developing tho (shooter bought gun from darknet with bitcion etc. etc.) ☝︎
ben_vulpes: but i am going to look into what indexing on transaction hash does to both disk utilization and lookup speed.
ben_vulpes: nah, this isn't for block validation or anything.
mircea_popescu: actually this is pretty valid research ground for fixing sql. ☟︎
asciilifeform: (by bitcoin standards, where the number of queries per second is not under your control)
asciilifeform: hopefully ben_vulpes doesn't need this thing to work in real time.
ben_vulpes: (above has various oopsies, f.ex "previous block" should be a self-fk to blocks)
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: primarily interested in modeling the blockchain succinctly in sql. various webthingers will be a natural product.
asciilifeform: making a block-viewer thing?
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i recall you mentioned this experiment a while ago
ben_vulpes: unrelatedly, a taster of something sitting on my workshop floor: http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/a2110310-f277-4fbf-809f-294f9bd10c3d/
mircea_popescu: lmao the ethereum reddit is pretty lulzy. O NOES!!11
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: talking about the kid with the axe or the shooters?
ben_vulpes: actually that was in #trinquelantis now that i think on it
ben_vulpes: trinque mentioned the german
asciilifeform: also no qntra or logz mention of the german snackbar? ☟︎
asciilifeform: 'I wish them both success in their struggle, but hold out little hope that either side will gain the upper hand. Instead, they will fumble at each other until the fools of this nation finally take one side or the other and demand a federal police force. By then, if I’m still around I’ll be getting attacked by Dindus while I hobble along on my cane and then get tazed by federal pigs for the crime of caning the sacred martyr race of
a111: Logged on 2014-11-07 18:55 asciilifeform: 'One metaphor for monetization is that of a storage vessel, like a battery for electricity or a tank for compressed gas. When people buy into the currency, they are charging the battery and compressing the tank. When they sell out, they are discharging the battery. When new currency is created (perhaps by alchemists) without a buy-in, the tank has sprung a leak. Etc. The charge, or the pressure, is simply the
mircea_popescu: yeh, it's textbook classical economics theory.
asciilifeform: mr mold even, knew this
mircea_popescu: battery altogether a good model for money in the general.
asciilifeform: ~every watch battery that hits the junkyard has still ~nominal voltage.
mircea_popescu: battery actually excellent model. "this provides 10kV, for a total 0.1VA energy draw"
mircea_popescu: ancient chinese tech.
asciilifeform never actually believed in stock valuations, either of good or evil; they are like the voltage on a dead lithium battery, put on a real load and it --> 0 quickly
mircea_popescu: if you recall the workings of "ration cards" during famine, you pretty much got the whole scheme of this "technological advance"
