assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 20:15:01; ben_vulpes: while "there's nothing wrong with addr reuse" made sense once upon a time, the new regime is that "tell people where you're sleeping, and they'll come murder you there".
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1421273 << as alf aptly points out, merely not telling people where you sleep does nothing to chillax the band of armed murderers going about the streets. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i don't recall when's the last time a democrat was so culturally inept. maybe carter.
mircea_popescu: seriously, not time to make america great again, it never ceased being great, gotta unite it more ? bitch, you lose. you lose so badly... jesus.

mircea_popescu: people other than orwell, who unlike orwell had sex and mattered in the world.
mircea_popescu: i did not say "the machine gun". i said THE BRITS.
mircea_popescu: the brits of 1800 are nowhere to be seen.
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 19:39:39; asciilifeform: mircea_popescu, in particular, seems to understand this principle very well.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1421265 << and what exactly do you want me to do, invade china ? ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 19:06:28; *: trinque has dated two ballerinas
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1421239 << nice going, i'm at two too! we're ballerina bros now! ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: just like any other derp/redditard to whom i give key life advice.
mircea_popescu: i crossed out art and wrote in "you stink" and "get a job", but something tells me they won't take this to heart and execute it exactly
mircea_popescu: they had the unmitigated audacity to leave envelopes on the tables, "thanks for halping us continue with our art"
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 19:05:18; pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420808 << i took in the alberta ballet's nutcracker in december, which is the local company. there were no more than 3 of the cast who could actually dance. the rest were trying to 'fake it till you make it', which drove me up the wall, particularly when the mouth-breathing audience took it upon themselves to give the sorry lot a standing o.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1421236 << fancy that, i've just been to an incredibly shitty "super hip" bar here. nice tall ceilings, that the idiots took to defending against with some inept iron grating to make the seats all boxed in. live band, so fucking bad it had more in common with static noise than music. ☝︎☟︎
cazalla: might be my end then
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: ty, should be fixed
pete_dushenski: gotta have something in there eh ;)
cazalla: i'm at the stage where i'm now singing and dancing to wiggles songs at 6am
pete_dushenski: cazalla: just splendid. we're in the sweet spot where he's sleeping well, eating well, can't crawl, and isn't teething :)
cazalla: how's the bubs pete_dushenski ?
pete_dushenski: punctuation helps break up thoughts and controls reader flow
pete_dushenski: "Following that last year "Justice" Department regulators refused permission to Swedish firm Electrolux's efforts to unburden General Electric of this line of business by acquiring it for 3.3 billion" << idem.
pete_dushenski: "appliance business have become public knowledge twice before." << this parse funny to anyone else ?
ben_vulpes: noted, ty.
felipelalli: trinque, thank you!
felipelalli: trinque, thank you very much. I guess is something related with UTF-8 again because in my browser I had to manually set to UTF-8 encoding when ?raw=true
trinque: felipelalli: I'll look in a bit and fix whatever's stopping that and put it through for you.
trinque: not sure why that happened.
shinohai: I read that this morning danielpbarron - nice!
danielpbarron: oh trinque thanks for adding my blog :D
trinque: heh, that's what I imagine the fucks that stole my 4U doing.
shinohai: I hope they booted into Arch and were like "dafuq did I just steal?"
shinohai: No big deal besides the lost work, thankfully the airgapped computer with my gpg keys was in my bedroom at the time.
trinque: ah, sorry to hear that.
shinohai: trinque: home, someone busted in my the side door to my home office, got a lappy and a few trivial items.
shinohai: I've had that, theft, and just yesterday a db crash. Yet I soldier on.
gernika: and if anyone is curious what took me so long - catastrophic hard disk failure, among other things.
pete_dushenski: you persevered where many didn't, which is really the only way to live.
gernika: I finally have a fully synced trb node, after starting on the project almost a year ago.
asciilifeform: sata ssd will work, but limited to sata-ii (1.5Gb/s) freq.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: x60 is an amazing box (get the 64-bit last rev., 2GHz) but i must warn, it suffers from a barfalicious - by modern standards - lcd.
asciilifeform: (lenovo REALLY doesn't want you to use your own nic)
asciilifeform: i eventually put back the heathen bios on the x60, BUT i ida'd it and nop'd out the imbecile nic whitelist ☟︎☟︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 29-02-2016 16:55:32; asciilifeform: so at this point i'm satisfied that rms either 1) does not actually use an x60 machine with 'libreboot' ~~or~~ does not program.
assbot: Logged on 29-02-2016 04:23:06; asciilifeform: libreboot just sort of runs it at mid-rpm at all times.
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: theoretically, x60, because coreboot. but turns out that coreboot is halfbaked.
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: thoughts on the x60 vs x61?
ben_vulpes: while "there's nothing wrong with addr reuse" made sense once upon a time, the new regime is that "tell people where you're sleeping, and they'll come murder you there". ☟︎
ben_vulpes: this conflict is rooted in the addr reuse thread.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> ... << BingoBoingo if that was you, and it was, you linked to an article of mine that said nothing re: miners... << Known, but gotta get people reading because lord knows /. story approvers don't
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu, in particular, seems to understand this principle very well. ☟︎
asciilifeform: BUT RATHER are to be solved by finding and catching the problemator, and smashing him into a concrete wall repeatedly until the problem goes away.
asciilifeform: some problems are not meant to be solved ~at the receiving end~
asciilifeform: or, as uncle al called it, 'plugging the wrong end of the funnel.'
assbot: Logged on 10-04-2015 19:15:42; ascii_field: Chillum: the entire exercise is what i call a 'bear suit'
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=10-04-2015#1095271 << thread. ☝︎
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: all of the proposed 'mask' solutions remind me of the 'bear-proof suit'
pete_dushenski wasn't he of poor nickname taste, ftr.
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 13:12:31; asciilifeform: 'You think Bitbet benefits from the open display of bets and payouts? Fine! Publish them for paid-out bets. Publish a shortened version for active bets, first few digits of the amount, a fragment of the address… publish hashes of the whole data, deedbot them, anything you'd like. Why publish the whole thing, plain text, all the time? What did you imagine would come out of that rabid, unthinking tran
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420833 << not sure how transparency was 'unthinking' but i had largely the same train of thought last night as i was composing 'salvage' piece (ie. hashes, first few characters). ☝︎
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: it remains trivial to track down and target the addrs ~from~ which bb pays out.
pete_dushenski: i'm not discussing bets that haven't been resolved
asciilifeform: for one thing, the ~existing~ bets have addrs published.
pete_dushenski: this doesn't improve bitbet's position, nor its aims for transparency, but normally transacting users who previously received 'tainted' coins do have recourse.
pete_dushenski: granted that it's a bit of a pain, and also granting that it's hardly a scalable solution, it does do the trick.
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 15:58:36; asciilifeform: and say they blacklist anything previously appearing as payout on bb.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420965 << in my experience, as detailed in latest contravex, this can be worked around. ☝︎
pete_dushenski: as ever, he with the gold calls the shots as to 'what is art'
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420812 << hahaha i had this exact same debate with fillie at guggenheim bilbao over serra's 'the matter of time'. she fucking hated it, i defended it, but probably to play foil as much as anything. this was a few years ago however, though i do still see his works once or twice a year in toronto's pearson airport ('tilted spheres'). i will grant them their ability to bre ☝︎
pete_dushenski used to dance ! lifts were a pubescent boy's dream cum true.
trinque: the ones that take it seriously are *jacked*
trinque has dated two ballerinas ☟︎
pete_dushenski: made me long to see a real ballet. i think i'll wait until the royal winnipeg is in town next.
assbot: Logged on 03-03-2016 07:09:35; phf: "experimental" forms to compensate for lack of rigour.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=03-03-2016#1420808 << i took in the alberta ballet's nutcracker in december, which is the local company. there were no more than 3 of the cast who could actually dance. the rest were trying to 'fake it till you make it', which drove me up the wall, particularly when the mouth-breathing audience took it upon themselves to give the sorry lot a standing o. ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: o shit, the very next line!
mircea_popescu: it's what it usually means when someone says they're using "normal" anything in bitcoin
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform> what does this mean ? << that he's using prb and never looked inside for sheer horror
asciilifeform: ultimately, a sane linux - to the extent such a thing is physically possible - will look like a gentoo with a vtronic portage.
asciilifeform: largely because everything that uses it, gets killed by the flag set shown.
asciilifeform: trinque: it doesn't try to slip in
asciilifeform: sturles: i recommend to look at the code, you're in for some surprises.
sturles: I haven't looked closely at the code. My node behaves like any other node would. Except it keeps a part of the mempool protected from fee based eviction based on priority.
asciilifeform: what does this mean ?
sturles: I use normal rules for relaying transactions.
asciilifeform: sturles: how does your node decide if a tx is to be relayed ?
sturles: If the sibling is _after_ the parent in the block, the block is invalid.
sturles: No, the order must be strict. I.e. the the parent must be confirmed _before_ the sibling.
asciilifeform: this would be an 'academic' matter, were it not for the fact that the enemy is making full use of it.
asciilifeform: (every shot requires you to look at every other)
sturles: Yes, and I don't think this is much more complex than requiring each utxo to be in a different block than the one it is spent from.
asciilifeform: now i am tempted to say to client, when he asks for theta, 'it isn't that complex'
asciilifeform: that is a thing that one can say about an algo now ?!
asciilifeform: 'it isn't the complex' !?!?!!
