adlai: asciilifeform: so
tabs vs spaces was not bad enough, and we also need lisp-1 vs lisp-2 in Bitcoin?
adlai: srijan: fwiw it is possible
to update ratings in private message, and afaik
the only person who can give you
the full data on
thata is kakobrekla
mircea_popescu: +#define

felipelalli: But I loved
the idea
to integrate WoT on it!
felipelalli: asciilifeform, I am
trying
to learn
the whole
thing yet. But I had
to pause it.
felipelalli: asciilifeform, I didn't have
too much
time yet
to explore
this project and your work but I follow far with
twinkle in my eyes. Congrats!
mircea_popescu: there are specific choices in how gribble handles security
that were expedient for a long
time, but no longer acceptable, so it'd have
to be rewritten. until it isn't, i would
think it more like a play sort of
thing.
mircea_popescu: there was some
talk about harmonizing
the
two, but i don't
think
the guy has any
time
to be doing maintenance, or any interest for
that matter, so...
danielpbarron: idk if it finally got fixed but it was
the case
that all someone needed
to do was compromise your irc client and
they could hijack your WoT identity
mircea_popescu: what happened is - we used gribble wot.
then gribbe was offline unexpectedly, and its maintainer wasn't
talking. he was
traveling at
the
time, as we later found out. nevertheless, for
those few days
the situation was indistinguishable from an attack and so we made a replacement.
☟︎ danielpbarron: something like
that; and I personally prefer assbot's authentication method
to gribble's
felipelalli: thank you mircea_popescu! danielpbarron, yes, I remember, I was here when
this fork was made. I remember some conversation about gribble being
too much offline and another bot was necessary. Am I wrong?
danielpbarron: the b-a WoT is
the same as
the one in
that post;
the fork happened afterwards
felipelalli: mircea_popescu,
that's why I asked you. But why?
felipelalli: mircea_popescu, do you still consider Bitcoin OTC WoT (not assbot WoT) important
to
the Bitcoin community or not more?
srijan: is
the btcalpha wot and btc-assets wot
the same
thing?
srijan: is
there any information about rating changes and rating deletions anywhere?
srijan: hi everyone, I am a PhD student and I am looking for some help regarding
the WoT network used here. Who should I be
talking
to ?
punkman: extra 25% processing fee
tacked on, all of which goes
to Vigilant."

turns into a hot list

the city,
they ping on license plates associated with
the fees.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform do you happen
to recall where
the original
thread was ?
mircea_popescu: sipa dumped
tons and
tons of code, most of which is shit.
BingoBoingo: Why would infestation coordinator need
to write many lines himself?
punkman: also surprised
that Gavin didn't write more lines
than Satoshi
jurov: ascii_butugychag: how big slowdown is
that?
jurov 's bitcoind segfaults in sha256_block_data_order, after properly and completely wiping out stack... now
trying gdb's record&replay for first
time
ascii_butugychag is perpetrating
this horror on
the other side of desk, it is difficult
to fully contain
ascii_butugychag: because it is a function of
two inputs,
the
traveller and
the destination.
BingoBoingo: It's Indonesia where
they are spread about
BingoBoingo: ascii_butugychag:
They are pretty much all on one island
mircea_popescu: phillipines is preview of future of china in an alt-world where
the us didn't go
to shit.
BingoBoingo: For serious. I should
totally move
there. Would be great for de-USing my brain all of
this other stupidity.
mircea_popescu: that's
the logic of
the great internet nation of
teh phillipines!
mircea_popescu: Wouldn't it be extremely inefficient
to manufacture a paper cup for everyone's coffee?
That would be millions of paper cups per day, only
to be used once. Coffee will never work.
mircea_popescu: because
this is just
too fucking good lmao, like self-building comedy goldcube.
mircea_popescu: are all
the imbeciles answering actually davout's alt accounts ?

adlai is more of a mechanic
than he'd like, something something for insects
adlai trades
time for
time and sometimes btc
trickle in.
that is all, since
this conversation doesn't seem
to be helping anybody anymore
mircea_popescu: no idea what indiancandy school you went
to, but no. nobody cares about specifically female retardation. it's not fascinating, nor sexy, nor even remotely interesting.
adlai: mircea_popescu: you know
the "three
things you can watch forever: fire burning, water flowing, people working"? needs an addition, "people bullshitting"
mircea_popescu: mno. cue "it is
the halmark of unemployed aluminum siding salesmen
to
try and pretend " are "".
adlai: en
teh archaea - fiat logos
adlai: cue "there is no logs but Logs, and you will have no other logs but
these"
adlai: thus
the scare quotes, and distinction from ~these~
adlai: lol i don't
think kako invited me here until months later
adlai celebrated "significantly more
than
two years" instead of astronomically precise anniversaries
adlai: early january 2014. i don't remember
the exact date and frankly don't feel like
trying
to recall it.
adlai is "in
the logs" describing
the full episode, it's
too long
to fit in
the margins of
these.
tl;dr: police visited, invited me along so nicely i couldn't refuse, but went home
the next day. as danielpbarron pointed out, jail /= prison
adlai: ascii_butugychag: so, even if no single Sovereign invests in building and powering a coke machine (or worst - CMaaS! cloud coking! etc), my point is
that
the collected actions of all eight billion / fifteen
thousand / etc sovereigns does
turn
the rock into a bit of a coke machine
