asciilifeform: in the last paste ?
asciilifeform: the way this kind of thing is traditionally handled, where i worked, is that you fix the lines you touch.
mircea_popescu: and i can't be the only one.
mircea_popescu: in honesty, without any exaggeration, i would estimate the barrier to contribution that whitespace-for-tab puts in front of me is actually larger than the barrier blindness put in front of chetty.
asciilifeform: the spaces thing is just one in 10,001 sad things in a jupiter-sized ball of sad that is trb.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform tu quoque ffs! just five minutes ago, you got to see what it does.
mircea_popescu: but spaces for tabs is a fucking disability.
mircea_popescu: bullshit like you know, avboiding the word cunt because it might make it impossible for some developers to contribute isn't worth the time of day
mircea_popescu: yes, conserve. on the other hand, the unknown unknowns : how many people currently simply CAN NOT help because of this ?
asciilifeform: because reading patches is serious work, i personally do not even have all that much time and energy these days, and other folks less still. i try to conserve it.
asciilifeform: just to minimize touched-line count
asciilifeform: fwiw i've deliberately refrained from munging whitespace or even fixing the asinine { } convention used in trb
asciilifeform: ty. i might actually have the stamina to read that one.
asciilifeform: at least in theory
mircea_popescu: well, honestly, this wasn't intended as a release candidate, more like a commentary item
asciilifeform: because the latter can be machine-checked
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 1 patch for the meat, another where just munge
mircea_popescu: not to even go into all the semantic degradation when you go from 2 separators to just 1.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if you must do this, the right way is to separate the two
mircea_popescu: look, i can't use fucking space allignment. for one thing on some systems i need it 2space and on others 4.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you realize, this is likely the biggest patch so far
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: argh this is painful
mircea_popescu: <copypaste> i've even seen "security patches" where the patch was to make the stack bigger, even though the stack was the right size to begin with << mitigation amirite.
mircea_popescu: mod6 http://dpaste.com/2CH23F5 << in the humble hope that it may serve.
mircea_popescu: fuck that, im making a proper file. the diff looks like the end of the fucking world, but hey.
asciilifeform: and is in fact something lusers are famous for doing - recall the folks which the 'comment commits' and 'formatting fixes' who munge entire projects ?
asciilifeform: i'd happily see the whole shebang reformatted, but this would destroy v-ability ☟︎☟︎
asciilifeform: and others, who edit their shit, who end up forced to use spaces to maintain the width ?
mircea_popescu: WHO DOES THESE THINGS
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-01-2016#1379490 << rather than have the statement checking for luser who set both flags high and barfing, why not have two flags, e.g., 'forceS' and 'lowhighS'. ☝︎☟︎
asciilifeform: forgives, and forgives, until we have a bitcoind that wants a GB/week of ram
asciilifeform: part of the reason why software suxx is that the system appears to be quite forgiving of this kind of intellectual sloth
asciilifeform: a garage big enough for a boeing, so as to not hit the walls ?
asciilifeform: i often wonder, do these folks also have two-metre-wide toilet in the house, so as to not miss ?
asciilifeform: 'if i make it what i think is the right size, it crashes!111' ☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎☟︎
copypaste: "so as not to overflow"
asciilifeform: i worked with a fella like that
copypaste: i've even seen "security patches" where the patch was to make the stack bigger, even though the stack was the right size to begin with
mircea_popescu: security through "bill gates should be enough to anally satisfy everyone"
mircea_popescu: fuck that shit.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: this kind of thing is pestilentially common in 1) microshit 2) folks who grew up on it. 'i'll leave a massive space on the stack so not to overflow because i can't count and also can't trust myself to put it in heap and remember to free()'
copypaste: perhaps it's some intermediary for a signature, and the final return will be chopped to say something sane like 64, 128
copypaste: but that seems insanely long
copypaste: i'll take a guess, seems like it's a signature, and 10k bytes is the expected length
mircea_popescu: WHO CODES LIKE THIS
mircea_popescu: unsigned char pchSig[10000];// Can anyone explain why 10`000 ? Enough with the magic numbers already. << for the fucking record.
mircea_popescu: to try and edit diffs by hand ? to nevermind ?
mircea_popescu: (this is prev release, test2)
mircea_popescu: blergh, i don't have the source. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: meh ima restate this.
mircea_popescu: mod6 why take out - vchSig.clear(); if you re-introduce it later in both branches ? ends up adding a line.
mircea_popescu: mod6 i take it back. it'll have to do, can't be introducing case now.
mircea_popescu: dude and he explained it to me once already. i'm like fixated.
jurov: mircea_popescu: afaik DER is just encoding and it's different problem than S value used in signature itself
mircea_popescu: as we'll forget which fucking high this is.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-01-2016#1379490 << may i suggest either sticking with the "comprehensible" in which case say -hiDER -loDER or else go for shortness (i don't think you should) and call it -hs -ls ? this "highs" "lows" thing is worst of both worlds. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-01-2016#1379483 << this reminds me of that "i'll be sober in the morning - you'll still be ugly" line. ☝︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 04:26:43; mod6: im pretty sure that one was mallated.
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 03:56:07; mod6: dear lord, i've had like 9 crackers with cheddar today and like 3 mtdews.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-01-2016#1379452 << please no stakhanovist suicides mr. there's been the maximum allowable count of funerals this year. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 03:41:08; BingoBoingo: From the mines: "Our best hope to get miners to run bitcoin-classic or XT, is to beg super-hard for it."
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=21-01-2016#1379446 << lol i wonder what'd be left of reddit if kids actually had to show up in school. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 02:55:53; BingoBoingo: Prolly something about seeing how much has would actually commit to their dumpster fire
assbot: Logged on 20-01-2016 18:31:11; ascii_butugychag: but if you have a unique itch somewhere deep in a body cavity, and wait for somebody to come and scratch it ~for you~ - you may wait for a while.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-01-2016#1378739 << yeah. and as i wait, so does the play wait. the itches i get aren't in any sense in my body, for i wash. they're in the body politic, all. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: dude has no fucking idea a) what likely means ; b) what a gentleman's duty is, the next day after emitting in the forum an enormity like that.
assbot: You rated user psztorc on 23-Sep-2015, with a rating of 1, and supplied these additional notes: Has no idea what post-structuralism is. Just like everyone else..
assbot: Logged on 12-01-2016 16:57:11; psztorc: So, "bitcoin classic", with a 2 MB blocksize limit, is likely to have >60% hashrate at this time tomorrow.
assbot: Logged on 21-01-2016 02:49:55; BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> in other news, bitcoin classic has even fewer nodes than bitcoin xt. who was that guy that was the me of something else again ? << They haven't even released a client publically yet
punkman: BingoBoingo: anything interesting in the jtoomim logz? ☟︎
BingoBoingo: A person who lacks the self preservation drive to eat themselves to the mass of two NFL linebackers should have to risk blowing out their knee traversing the walmart.
BingoBoingo: There really ought to be a moral test to get a scooty puff.
BingoBoingo: It's not like your bones are failing because you decided to test the limits of normal anatomy by butter huffing your way to 500+ pounds
BingoBoingo: It's one thing to have a condition. It's another thing to have condishuns.
copypaste: i have a high BMI, but only because my spine collapsed due to my condition which takes many inches off my height. but even then BMI is only 31. ☟︎
copypaste: surprised anyone at that weight is still alive
BingoBoingo: Solidly past the point of rag on a stick
BingoBoingo: Turd's too long to read really. Just try searching it for names and terms that should be in actual discussions about bitcoin and be astounded when they don't show up.
BingoBoingo: "Jonathan Toomim:2016-01-20 07:30:02:oh darn, i already sold my bitcoin to pay for electricity a few days ago..."
BingoBoingo: And is attached to a bunch of scams
BingoBoingo: Seriously though the Marshall long fellow looks like Gavin ate Gavin
BingoBoingo: But basically this Hearnia is painting Janssens and some Obeast named "Marshall Long" as the reasons for the adverserial nature of ClassicCoin. Framing of course because it's what good instruments do so he can try to relevant himself again in six months ☟︎
BingoBoingo: The other Toomim presenting his version of history https://archive.is/nCavo

punkman: "The Uber driver was too good of a person and decided to take a cash settlement instead of pressing charges. In his words, "...she was crying (and) said (she) was sorry for everything." I don't want to disclose the amount the driver was paid, but can say he could only use the money to pay his cellphone bill and maybeee his cable bill."
mod6: here's my testing notes: http://dpaste.com/32KDF7E.txt
mod6: third high-s tx was malleated also, went through, was confirmed as were previous two
BingoBoingo: But do read post for news on Bitcoin's new All Time High versus Oil
mod6: this one looks malleated too
mod6: ok second high-s tx went through
mod6: oooo crap forgot to set the fee to 0.001 after restarting.
mod6: this is interesting... that tx '893d003f806a5bce121a71e84c260e7879cb6c5464ef93132c0b79e60ff7ff66' hasn't been confirmed yet
mod6: yeah, but i guess thats to be expected since these three are supposed to all be high-s.
BingoBoingo: Yeah, the active malleation of transactions that happen to be High-S is a pain.
mod6: but the R value is
