ascii_deadfiber: btw is anyone ever gonna explain
the popularity of
the 'direct impingement' crapolade ?
mircea_popescu: oh another one of
those can't light a lighbulb
technologists ? color me in
the nuance of very surprised surprise.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> who is
this goatfucker anyway ? << Cornel Professor apparently collaborates with
the AR-15 printing kid
mircea_popescu: no wait.
that's not it either. maybe funkenstein could help an illiterate guy out! what word am i looking for!
mircea_popescu: in general whenever you hear an animal screaming bloody murder, what happens is,
that animal is being "at war" with something
that you know, lives off eating
them
thestringpuller: so its a race
to freeze
the dao or buterin and slock.it are at war with someone smarter
than
them
thestringpuller: he claims he wants
to bribe
the miners
to not fork with
the stolen funds
thestringpuller: "For
the other
thing, rape’s no fun if
the meat’s not at
the very least squiggling" from what
the hacker released he wants
this for when he goes on
the offensive again. if
that happens.
mircea_popescu: anywya, shinohai : look for
the part
that says "even if coded using best practices and following
the language documentation exactly, would have remained vulnerable
to attack"
shinohai: I just noticed
the slock.it dress code must be shitty
thrift-store suit jackets and a
tshirt.
thestringpuller: i love
the whole Lando Calrissian style, "IT'S NOT MY FAULT.
THEY
TOLD ME
THEY FIXED IT." bullshit
mircea_popescu: shinohai i linked a pretty good piece yest, it's not JUST slock.it
that are derps,
the whole stack's rotten all
the way down.
thestringpuller: also Stephen
Tual has been driven out of
the Ehtereum coomoonity. He's getting death
threats now much like Karpeles was.
thestringpuller: shinohai: cause
they had a security audit done and still hacked.
shinohai: Not defending eth, but how is it
their fault slock.it built shitty code on
top of already shitty platform?
mircea_popescu: in other superlulz, Emin Gün Sirer : "If
the ETH community bails out
the DAO (and I believe
they should), we need
to put in place a social wall around Slockit
to avoid a repeat."
thestringpuller: one finally did and didn't know how
to use a bouncer so I can't hit him back.
thestringpuller: its usually
to cut down on spam, as I won't respond
to recruiter inquiries unless
they show up on IRC
☟︎ thestringpuller: My contact info on linkedin is: "Find me, under nick
thestringpuller, in #trilema on Freenode. If you don't know how
to use IRC, I more
than likely don't want
to work for you."
ascii_deadfiber: the
transparent ploy behind
the 'soft forks' and related crapolade is
to
try
to siphon btc into corners from which it can no longer be removed with a
trb node.
BingoBoingo: Or you could start showing up
to
their homes and beating
them with a sock full of quarters.
ascii_deadfiber: BingoBoingo: only mircea_popescu has
the correct pill for hardphorkerz.
BingoBoingo: It's soft because
they say so. If you want
them
to admit
that it is hard you have
to knock on Peter
Todd's door naked and holding a sock full of quarters
ascii_deadfiber: i don't grasp how 'this
tx is valid if $offchainsoup condition is
true' is a 'soft' fork.
BingoBoingo: ascii_deadfiber: Address starts with 3 has been
the convention for pederastry ever since multisig happened
☟︎ BingoBoingo: ascii_deadfiber: It's
their new convention. I'm assuming, could be wrong but
this is how
the last
Toddatronic
turd went
ascii_deadfiber: the one
thing i'm failing
to grasp is how
this is a 'soft' fork
ascii_deadfiber: 'Despite
this limitation, we do have a way
to provide something functionally similar
to retroactive invalidation while preserving irreversibility of past commitments using CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY. By constructing scripts with multiple branches of execution where one or more of
the branches are delayed we provide a
time window in which someone can supply an invalidation condition
that allows
the output
to be spent, effectively inva
a111: Logged on 2014-11-13 19:04 asciilifeform admits
that he suspects bip64 of being a plot
to create usg-like bonds in btc. folks will be asked
to
trace X proper btc for X+epsilon 'locked' ones
that are
to land back in
their pocket 'in
the future', should
they live long enough, but are actually recovable 'because
this is how
the world works'
a111: Logged on 2014-11-13 19:06 asciilifeform: bip64, aside from complicating
the protocol and giving relevance
to
the gavin shitgang, is also a jam-tomorrow chumpatronic engineering structural element
BingoBoingo: Described in mines as "checksequenceverify (CSV) is a group of 3 BIPs
that will enable relative
time locks.
This will let you lock money for a predetermined period after your
transaction confirms.
The
time can be a
time measured in multiples of 512 seconds or a block count."
BingoBoingo: "Check Sequence Verify" some Peter
Toddatronic
thing
BingoBoingo: So it will be
the old-old folks homes converted
to психушкаs
BingoBoingo: But do психушкаs appartments
typically have balconies like new-old folks homes?
ascii_deadfiber: that
the buildout of old folks homes etc will be re-used as психушкаs when
the generation currently occupying
them expires
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Nah whole street evacuated when construction site caught fire.
That particular street is about 20 ish miles long, maybe 30 ish
ascii_deadfiber: also iirc
the midwest was lulzy because
the whole street caught fire
ascii_deadfiber: i dun
think
they have 'civilization' in
this continent, BingoBoingo
BingoBoingo: Apparently your gas is allowed
to leak, but when we have some idiot
tear up a pressurized line with backhow somehow Middle west is Zimbabwe while James Lafond presents alf in
the hood is pocket of civilization
ascii_deadfiber: srsly
there was a gas leak on my street last year and
they dug up half of it and put in
the hose in place of pipe.
ascii_deadfiber: which inevitably provokes
the question: when can i expect
to see gas pipe on poles !!
BingoBoingo: But seriously now we've got fiber. Pretty sure we've been over
this before.
ascii_deadfiber: btw i noticed
that all new gas lines where i live are flexible hose instead of
the customary cast iron pipe
BingoBoingo: IP over Compressed natural gas is all
the rage ehre
BingoBoingo: Tornado is still usually same day service
though.
BingoBoingo: But seriously, repair schedule is
tomorrow?
BingoBoingo: Aha, so merely having fiber doesn't mean you don't live in
the heart of Dindustan
trinque: new deedbot box is up and works. I'll be swapping over
to
that one later
BingoBoingo: Oh it looks like Forbes hooked a higher quality of kid
than
they usually do.
mircea_popescu: when you wait for a compile,
the compile waits for you!
mircea_popescu: when i was fucking arab girls i insisted
they wear
the underwear on head rather
than ass,
to pacify local sentiments.
mircea_popescu: well, when interviewing hackers it is polite
to assume
the
trappings.
mircea_popescu: they just like
to claim association with what
they like
to imagine impresses us ; we humor
them.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform eh, let's not read
too much into
these
things. nobody in
the dinousaur world has anything even remotely like stable employment, let alone any sort of relationships or whatever.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-21 14:26 mircea_popescu:
tfoxbrewster you
the forbes guy ?
BingoBoingo: Or it
turns self off with
the empty switch?
trinque: I expect
they'll
turn it back off soon :p
trinque: every
time
they
turn it back on price starts
to recover
a111: Logged on 2016-06-21 13:27 mircea_popescu: phf feature request : can log search have a parameter indicating how many later references are needed for line
to qualify ?
