mircea_popescu: i dunno how you feel about arab girls, but a trip to bahrein is in order.
davout: either way i'll ask the question a bit more formally, and ask about outgoing non-sepa wires too could be useful since i don't plan on ever becoming a victim of my own success
mircea_popescu: it's basically a soviet country, just like the russians were. unlike the other soviet union, however, it doesn't fucking know this, goes to bed every night collectively imagining that "start-ups" as implemented there are actual business ; and "stars" as implemented there are examples of successful people. it's really quite amusing.
mircea_popescu: the upfront cost of attempting to do business as a us subject far exceeds any possibility of gain no matter how fantasmagorically distant.
mircea_popescu: i'm telling you , advise us partners to either a) get an eu entity incorporated and use that or b) be less poor, as applicable.
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 13:35:48; PeterL: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=16-02-2016#1407557 << What is this lithium ion cell business? Real men just throw a hunk of lithium into their water with tea leaves.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1408153 << you know, i don't salt my food. i merely add chlorine and sprinkle some sodium on top. ☝︎
davout: so apparently fees on non-sepa wires are 'complicated' and may or may not depend on the the original fee setting request (OUR, SHA, BEN if memory serves), and on possible currency conversion fees on either end
mircea_popescu: but apparently with age this comes also.
davout: not too often that i can say "a boy i'd fuck"
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1408126 << you know that's almost exactly what i mean by "built like a boy" ☝︎
mircea_popescu: and the monetary cost is nothing, us banks are incredibly parochially retarded, will pretend like they can send wires, but then don't.
mircea_popescu: there's simply no banking to be had in the us.
mircea_popescu: jurov i don't think by now any usian is without eu banking.
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 08:15:17; phf: multiple producers indicate a conflict, multiple consumers - a divergent press tree
jurov: did they tell you how much usians pay to wire funds to you?
davout: jurov: re usians, our new fiat financial partner tells us we accept customers from pretty much all countries now
jurov: davout actually transferwise should work for you fine, too. except that iirc you require funding from own accounts and twise sends sepa transfers from estonia instead
jurov: Looking at you, USians who don't want to feed coinbase and their ilk.
jurov: Namely, my offer to exchange EUR->X.EUR with fixed 2% fee to wot members in good standing using sepa or transferwise stands.
jurov: davout, nice statement but the bot is mia again. some people depend on x.eur to run their racket^W serious business!!!

asciilifeform: part1 is the bridge. part2 is the only place where trb per se is touched, where the hooks are inserted.
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1408030 << it had own genesis to establish pedigree with the historic tinyscheme. but shiva is a patch that bridges it into the trb tree. and yes i rebased it, it works with the current trb. ☝︎☟︎
punkman: "The trustee has approved part of the filed claims. At this time those who have filed "BTC-only claim" will know whether it is approved. Other approvals are still on hold.."

punkman: phf: how to do conflict resolution << just let the user pick one of the conflicting branches
phf: erm, that was supposed to be two different urls..
phf: which makes me wonder about some of the patches and how to do conflict resolution, for example http://btcbase.org/hash/BDC4FC472BE4A86FB91FA69368FAACE04414FDEEE5B8C82795E31D37E21581B973CAF7F3E9CCC27D487944A5782E3B59615180EAB87C8B3E81242901F3039E4D all patch wallet.cpp towards a divergent state

phf: i added simple hash navigation to btcbase

pete_dushenski: it's not polite to talk about how hung will s. was. it'd be like asking him how much he's paid.
pete_dushenski: and unrelated news that i wish were related https://49.media.tumblr.com/dfeb8d3d74d56b42e20a03c0b18adc87/tumblr_o0pri49FVK1v0wc8oo2_400.gif

pete_dushenski: http://www.reuters.com/article/us-australia-politics-tech-idUSKCN0VP2TJ << the x of y finally comes to bitcoin in 2016.
punkman: phf, seems so. my initial suggestion was releases as patch sequence files, but I don't think anyone liked this idea. My vtron does .seq files with "foo.vpatch \t sha512(foo.vpatch) \n" inside, which works for my blobby vtronized things.
pete_dushenski: at least not on tumblr
pete_dushenski: but i guess there can't be ~that~ many pics of abdullah pounding white poon in the back of his open-air 600 landaulet
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 02:36:58; mircea_popescu: speaking of the king of jordan and his mercedes, http://40.media.tumblr.com/fb142efbdc04ec9115a00b342da8e762/tumblr_nir0r5aLaw1qlne6uo1_1280.jpg
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1407940 << /me clicks excitedly! finds what appears to be toyota 'egg' van and two not particularly eager-looking sluts, which was a bit of a let down. ☝︎
phf: punkman: is comments in code still the plan? that seems to suffer from similar issues as experimental branch
mircea_popescu: prolly something like that.
pete_dushenski: because no special treatment ? no soft pandering to their fee-fees ?
mircea_popescu: punkman the important point there is that mod6 signs it.
pete_dushenski: now, the logs.
mircea_popescu: nevertheless... who the fuck exactly knows who elena dragos is.
punkman: BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: What truly is a release other than a particular V tree? << a release is a vpatch that adds a comment to every single file. or at least that was the plan.
mircea_popescu: for instance, i took rhetorics with the worlds best rhetorics teacher, no doubt about it. she gave me an 80%, which was by far my lowest mark that year, but then again a good 20% over the next best in the 800 strong year.
mircea_popescu: though arguably it should, but that's another discussion.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski ro schooling isn't going to impress anyway.
mircea_popescu: the occasional exception being local lion backed by foreign capital, resulting in things like say protv. but very much exceptional, and only capable of existing in specific niches. also, temporary things.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: ok. so guy wants to improve his station by moving abroad to work for multinational. and he doesn't apply for this job by mailing a few pieces of paper with letters on them, but more importantly with ~numbers~ on them, lending clear incentive to find easy > great teacher in uni ?
mircea_popescu: but no, by and large there was no status there. for middling derps, yes. but not otherwise.
punkman: a sidenote that came to mind looking at phf's lisp snippet: adding comments to everything for release patches (and alt-genesis) doesn't work so great if you have non-plaintext files. not a problem for trb as it is, but perhaps something to keep in mind.
mircea_popescu: some people did that.
mircea_popescu: much better deal to actually work in their home location.
mircea_popescu: these jobs sucked, because foreign firm without exception tried to pay local salaries and demand foreign work.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: was there not status in working for 'foreign' firm ? did these not have interview/application processes ?
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo a signed path through it.
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: What truly is a release other than a particular V tree?
pete_dushenski: right, so bring on the best of the best of the nastiest of the crudest of the shrewdest teachers :)
mircea_popescu: i dun think there exists even today the romanian speaker who a) is competent in the sense contemplated here and b) actually applies for a job, any job.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski much larger fish than usual in a very tiny pond. what employers. crony capitalism ftw.
mircea_popescu: punkman well, let's see what the others say. i faintly dislike the idea on morale grounds, but it's not the end of the world ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 17-02-2016 00:49:56; *: mircea_popescu recalls from his college days that most kids preferred taking exams with easy teachers over taking exams with good teachers.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=17-02-2016#1407796 << this might seem odd to you because you never (presumably) cared about the signal that an honours degree sent to potential employers. ie. the type who sort resumes by "has degree, doesn't. has honours, doesn't." which'd mostly be gov, so... it depends. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: now how do i go from that to phf's nice tree thing ?
punkman: like this http://therealbitcoin.org/ml/btc-dev/attachments/20160128/asciilifeform_shiva_part_2_of_2.vpatch?sha1=abc9c21e3c86e7a540b20e49a6ebc86017758e48
mircea_popescu: what do you mean by touch ?
punkman: the tinyscheme stands alone but there;s also 2-3 other patches related to it that touch trb
mircea_popescu: in the tree.
mircea_popescu: punkman you think ?
punkman: still not sold on the dual genesis, but if the foundation moves forward with this model, I suggest the new genesis is the release/production/stable branch and the existing genesis the experimental one.
BingoBoingo: ^ Far more interesting that Barret Brown likely going stoolie

mircea_popescu: is it some weird like "during day air moves off river, but at night direction change, hot air moves from plain towards river" or somesuch ?
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Welcome to my world. Several days last week high of the day was immediately before sunrise.
mircea_popescu: how the fuck is 1 am 5 degrees above 1pm ?
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Because if I need lantern light I'm probably going to need enough light to illuminate active worksite
mircea_popescu: this fucking climate is beyond comprehension. IT GETS LOTS WARMER AFTER THE SUN SETS.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Nah, 6v "floating lantern" to toss into trunk of car and hopefully forget for 3 years until it needs replacement
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: where do these go ?
BingoBoingo: Not sure if exactly one pound, but given it's heft that's what it feels like.
BingoBoingo: In other news when I was at the store today acquired 1lb carbon zinc battery for great justice
phf: source patched with http://paste.lisp.org/display/307448, run with a folder as argument and it'll prepend a header based on some conditions (rtfs) to all files
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: https://cryptome.org/2016/02/brown-0070.pdf << for possible reprocessing into loltronium ? << I'd need more context on the details motivating the dismissal
mod6: You should end up with the exact same sha512 hashes as listed in the paste. Let me know, either way.
mod6: so what would be great here, is if you apply the patch, or use the v.pl attached to the email (check the sigs ofc), then start clean, do a fresh `./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation`, and then press out the entire tree, `./v.pl p v v054 asciilifeform_maxint_locks_corrected.vpatch`, then `cd v054` and run that find command at the top of this pastehttp://dpaste.com/2SQ1VZ7.txt
