mircea_popescu: or otherwise we could say
the reasons are
thoroughly comprehensible as
they are reprehensible and just hang
the lot.
pete_dushenski: mod6: i actually found
the monthly really very helpful, and i'm sure
that i'll continue
to find
them of value.
they're essential resources for shallowing out
the steep learning curve :)
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform rbf aka "replace by fee" is a nutty idea of peter
todd
that got a sour
treatment hre a whole ago, but for incomprfehensible reasons, let's say, managed
to obtain wuile's support.
mircea_popescu: but such are
the father's pistols. if only he were less of a drunk.
mircea_popescu: mod6 it wasn't
that bad. but
there's 1-200 man-hours in
there easy going
through all
those cases and justifying
them. not
to mention
that
the ones
that will need rewriting most llikely amount
to
two or
three
total rewrites of
the codebase anyway.
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> wtf is rbf ? << Yet another weirdo script for double spending unconfirmed
transactions with a higher fee. Only pheature is being more polite
than just doing it as has always been possible
mircea_popescu: i understand
that
they have no option, being unable
to do anything and ambitious enough
to want
to be seen doing
things. nevertheless.
mircea_popescu: there is exactly 0 demang for all
the crap
these dudes keep
trying
to paint as "innovation".
mircea_popescu: "I still haven't found anyone
that is asking for RBF." << pretty muchg
the definitive word on
that derpage.
mod6: mircea_popescu:
thanks for
taking
the
time
to search
through
the code
today and write it up.
BingoBoingo merely offering
these comments so
that at some point in
the future members of our cult may be able
to unironically honor each other with
the
title Doktor
mircea_popescu: <BingoBoingo> pete_dushenski: Anyways
the way comprehensive exams work is you gotta rewrite
the
thing either over
the summer
term or next semester from scratch. Hopefully before you next write for
the comprehensive exam you read code. << word.
mod6: pete_dushenski: if I may be so bold, Sir: Some helpful info you may find in
the monthly statements from
the foundation.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> Dec 22 17:01:42 <mircea_popescu>Iin other news, "blocks" : 182731, << same system is now "blocks" : 347914. << almost
there!

that once
the current version being worked upon is released, we all do a whole-source scouring of spaces, and sign
the independently generated results, which will be an immediate, other patch.
assbot: Pieter Wuille: "Opt-in RBF is not
theft. It's indicating
that you're not sure whether what you're submitting is
the final form of
the
transaction" WTF ?!? : btc ... (

pete_dushenski: i did read come, while some of it made sense, much was chinese. but having gone
through
the process undoubtedly gave me
the
tools needed
to launch my own public node. so
there's
that.
BingoBoingo: But props
to pete_dushenski for
trying
to write for
the comprehensive exam at
this
time.

pete_dushenski: or maybe ben will be choked
that i only mentioned him on
the shitty part of
the history
thus far, who knows
pete_dushenski: ;;later
tell ben_vulpes you'll be pleased
to find your
trb history prominently linked in part ii :)

BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: It appears you failed
the development history portion of your comprehensive exam. Must retake.
pete_dushenski: i literally spent
the last 3 hours in channel,
typing away, wondering why assbot wasn't picking up my links,
totally unawares
that i hadn't voiced myself.
that's some kind of new low.
BingoBoingo: At least
this gives a reasonable
target of 2020-2026 for less shitty block verifier
mircea_popescu: by which math, quoite, 6 in 2020, 12 in 2026,
two years by 2038 (when something or
the other will be fixed in boost, apud satoshi)
mircea_popescu: well... i would say 50^ of
these
two months are roughly due
to
the last year or so. so basically we'll be seeing +1 month / year indefinitely, as blocks can't get any fuller.
BingoBoingo: So next year will be 3 months
to sync, 2018 4 months, 2019 5 months etc.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: so i'm guessing... another 2-3 weeks for full sync, making a
trb full sync
take just about
two months on a reasonable box.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Any news on
the Blizard front?
mircea_popescu: to quote, "name's Pitt, and you ain't
talkin' your ass outta
this shit."
mircea_popescu: WHEN: Saturday, January 23, 2016, 9:00 am-5:00 pm << lol
two day lead-in ? desperation is dripping off.
punkman: large bocks are a good
thing
BingoBoingo: ot
the greatest character guy, but he sure was pretty smart."
BingoBoingo: From
the mines, Micheal Jordan edition: "MJ used
to
tell Johnny
that “Tiger Woods is an idiot. I
tried
to help him, but
the kid’s gonna get caught.” (we all know how
that
turned out). In order for a girl
to get
to MJ, she needed
to go
through 4 undercover former narcotics detectives just
to speak
to Michael. She had
to be approved by all 4
to make sure she wasn’t gonna say a damn word about MJ
to anyone. So
there’s MJ, n

the idea in
the article can (and has) been rephrased like
this. if you remove all
the 'suggestively-named strings' like 'understand' - and replace with 'gensyms' - e.g., 100324 - does
the resulting machine still do or even appear
to do anything of interest?
BingoBoingo: Maybe your ergot friend can reveal
the
truth in a spiritual experience?
adlai still doesn't understand why asciilifeform quoted
that
adlai dons gascuba mask and swims
to
the "don't be evil" bank
BingoBoingo: Why not google
that string
to see if
there are already human
translations. Or just swim across
the Micheal Jordan river and ask someone a little browner
than yourself?
BingoBoingo: It's useful
to know which shitcoin it was
this round and
the record a running
tab of what i++ next shitcoins are
BingoBoingo: <shinohai> She is
trying
to sell some huge bag of some shitcoin, after I
told her politely 3
times I'm not interested in being liberated of my paltry BTC earning funding scams. << Which shitcoin?
adlai: shinohai: care
to say which and how much?
this is financial data relevant
to shitcoin-asseteers
adlai: "caution: may contain peanuts, gluten, and glucose" is much better
than "100% asbestos-phree!!!!'
assbot: Successfully updated
the rating for Cristina from 1
to -1 with note: Una gran pérdida de
tiempo. Disfrute su bolsillas de mierdas.
shinohai: She is

times I'm not interested in being liberated of my paltry BTC earning funding scams.
mod6: "Enjoy your shit bags." is how google just
translated it. HAHA
mircea_popescu: you're not angry at
the chick for not putting out are you ?
shinohai: !rate Cristina -1 Una gran pérdida de
tiempo. Disfrute su bolsillas de mierdas.
mircea_popescu: well, it is pretty obnoxiously identical
to my view, yeah.
mircea_popescu: yeh but i don't
think
that group of nuts would like you, or you
them. meanwhile
the usgod crowd... prolly. maybe. who knows.
mircea_popescu: he's equally convinced
that "if it exists, is cuz god willed it, and should it go away, it will be
through god's will"
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 21:56:07; mircea_popescu: check it out alfie, your clone with less
technical skills is running
the usg's largest bank-department.
mircea_popescu: i
think we might be a few iterations away from it yet
tho
mod6: eh. kinda sorta, i gotta re-read
that part when i get a chance. but i
think
that you
think it's useful :]
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 21:43:57; mircea_popescu: well... it's what, 650kb, so
then
the idea is
that it should be condensable in 10kb or so ?
mircea_popescu: there's a very ample history of idiots
thinking
they may bypass
this, starting with bitcoinica. i welcome more victims, gladly.
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 21:34:22; mod6: has
the following:
mircea_popescu: there's exactly zero leeway. noobs are noobs, and start at
the noob place. whatever
they may
think of
themselves. and
the more
they delay,
the less
they'll get for it. again irrespective of what
they may
think it's worth.
adlai: people do sometimes meet people outside of
the internet!
adlai doesn't recall saying
that he himself,
that is, adlai_chandrasekhar, wants
to meet mircea_popescu or market make options
mircea_popescu: fancy what we're discussing in 2016, "oh hey, 2012 never happened, let's pretend
that we matter and
there's no deathstar in orbit". derp.
adlai wonders whether he should re-rate mircea_popescu with
the
thing about "text, signed or otherwise"
mircea_popescu: i will, for
the record, NEVER entertain anyone you propose for anything.
adlai enjoyed it,
thank you for your
time.
mircea_popescu: aaaand
to make
the matter quite plain, i've had it just about up
to here witgh idiot jews who
think
they're exceptional.
they aren't,
the accomodation is 0,
they;d better be fucking humble as if
they're begging
to avoid gang ass rape.
adlai: or he finds somebody who's done it, because ain't nobody got
time for
this. s/nobody/$0
