mircea_popescu: trinque i recall me losing my
top over
this back in 2013ish or w/e
the first
time bitcoin-idiocy got in
the way of bitbet, being
told "oh wait,
this is an actual problem - we don't resolve problems, we write code here at prb!"
mircea_popescu: davout>
this "accounts"
thing is such an abomination... << consensus on
this since... 2011 ?
mircea_popescu: trinque> I'm aiming
to build
the calls necessary
to run deedbot's needs over shiva. << bless your heart.
mircea_popescu: my sister killed more
than
these by being a kid and accidentally stepping on
their heads
than i can recall.
trinque: yep, you have finite volume and items of varying volume and value, want
to pack
the knapsack by optimal value
davout: this "accounts"
thing is such an abomination...
trinque: this seems heavy given
the db structure used
trinque: hypothetically I would like
to simply be able
to inquire
the balance of any address at any
time
trinque: I was simply keeping a sqlite db of
txns
trinque: I can do
the latter
two outside
too
trinque: asciilifeform: right, I would at least need sendrawtxn (can make
txn elsewhere) but it would also be nice
to have createrawtxn and signrawtxn I suppose.
davout: trinque:
that -0.00020000 comes from
the "accounts" mega-turd?
trinque: too much manual lever-pulling at
the moment
trinque: I'm aiming
to build
the calls necessary
to run deedbot's needs over shiva.

trinque: "" : -0.00020000
jurov: mircea_popescu: pls
to mpex
mircea_popescu: i prefer
to practice safe sex rather
than safe assumptions.
mircea_popescu: hey, i dunno what posterity is like. maybe
they're retarded.
mircea_popescu: in case
this is not obvious,
transparent parallel
to our bitbet adventures.
mircea_popescu: so... how do you put
the subway on
the donut shop's books!
mircea_popescu: because it clearly IS part of
the books, right ?
trivially enumerable, as it is. just not easy
to evaluate.
mircea_popescu: so
tell me, as a curio : what is
the correct accounting for "city having subway" in
the books of a donut shop at
the corner of 85th and 10th ?
mircea_popescu: "no subway, no
travel - i don't own a 1/100000 of
the 100`000 spare car meta-pool, nor do i have anything
to do
that'd justify it."
mircea_popescu: and silly me,
to
think
that
the guys in
the subway are
there by choice, and
they could do something else.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform what,
the assumption
that alternatives exist died in practice yet again ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform is coincidentally
the pompous name of
the place where
the events discussed
transpired.
mircea_popescu: in
the same vein, mihai margineanu playing atm, just went "whenever you ask a question you don't expect answered ; why are you surprised when you get an answer you didn't expect".
mircea_popescu: trinque "but what is
the meaning of
the colors!" "the wild fox is dead"
mircea_popescu: adlai you realise - google is even better at koans
than at go.
mircea_popescu: "meanwhile
this cock ain't gonna rub itself, so here we are".
mircea_popescu: "gotta do something while waiting for buddha
to decide christ's more fun and come back
to save or someshit."
mircea_popescu: fucking bullshit, "what's
the meaning of coincidence ?" "dunno dood, HE HAD
TO FUCKING COME FROM SOMEWHERE" hurr durr.
mircea_popescu: "if you meet a derpy
teenager with whispy "beard" hair, onanistic odours wafting every which way who can'tstop prattlingabout his erotic exploits...
adlai: they were right about killing
them! put
them out of
their fucking misery, can't you hear it in
their "bushels of flax"
mircea_popescu: i'm not sure
there exists but i'm sure i don't know anything more offensive
than
the precious derpage in
the eastern
tradition.
mircea_popescu: A student asked Master Yun-Men (A.D. 949) "Not even a
thought has arisen; is
there still a sin or not?" Master replied, "Mount Sumeru!"
mircea_popescu: so i made
the mistake of following
the
tardpedia link.
therein,
mircea_popescu: but yes,
that's
the major problem of murder : a private act with major public effects. pretty major conundrum.
mircea_popescu: discretionary acts are
that, discretionary. no explanation is available for
the private sphere.
adlai wanders off in search of
the buddha
mircea_popescu: you see
the difference between
to explain and
to justify yes ?
adlai attains enlightenment - "chix" are not subject
to "murder"!
assbot: Logged on 22-04-2015 01:52:22; mircea_popescu:
the alternative is nothing. murder's not something
to be explained.
mircea_popescu: nobody's going
to do your work. you wanna
talk
to
the adults,
talk like
the adults.
adlai: well it was definitely after i joined
the channel, if
that limits
the search space.
mircea_popescu: adlai can't propose weird stances for mp
to have
taken in
the past and
then crap out on
the documentation.
adlai: it's 4:20, i got blunts
to burn and chat
to spurn.
adlai: somebody on better
terms with
that man oughtta invite him in here someday.
adlai: (for
the lispless in
the audience, cells are a human invention, by kenny
tilton)
adlai: although
the * in
that context was just a bunch of cells!
adlai: mircea_popescu: i wanna answer with a log link, but
the search is failing so i'll quote instead: "mircea_popescu: *-cide is never justifiable"
trinque: when I had a cat it killed
things all
the
time, for fun.
adlai: the child should have been spanked! you don't just go around letting your kids kill
things, without a little flick on
the butt
adlai: aha looks like
trinque is pulling a ben_vulpes ?
adlai: mircea_popescu:
that is such a
terrible story,
the child should have been spanked for chiccicide
trinque: adlai: your deed will send as soon as
this
thing reimports its key into
the wallet for
the 30th
time
nubbins`: jurov it would make
things easier
nubbins` guesses nobody except for
that one
turbo-unqualified nobody
assbot: Logged on 16-03-2016 11:50:11; mircea_popescu: kakobrekla and at any point prior
to march 2016 i would have readily believed
that. now however, is simply something i can't discern.
