ben_vulpes bought a new clever and a new kettle for
the new staffers
today
to parallelize
the coffee production
ben_vulpes knows
the guy who invented
the field-roasting
technique
ben_vulpes: just
takes a paint drying gun and some practice
ben_vulpes: and no you cannot roast
them in your kitchen because you can't get
the good shit because you don't buy by
the
teu
ben_vulpes: there is no artisanal anything,
there are just a bunch of hipsters competing
to roast beans well
phf: as opposed
to "artisanal" and "bespoken" as
they differentiate
things in portland
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform...lives in dc, probably
thinks coffee comes in "burnt" and "not"
mircea_popescu: "The situation has evolved. XT unfortunately didn't get
the momentum
that it should have had
thanks
to endless FUD/threats/censorship/ddosing etc"
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: your choices are
to either diddle screen rez or 'zoom' on browser, non?
assbot: Logged on 20-01-2016 02:31:49; ben_vulpes: unless you want
to make all os widgets
take up vastly more space
too
mod6: its on
the list, probably will when
this latest
thing is done.
ben_vulpes: there's something about working nearly alone as a sniper versus
together with some people you don't really hate all
that much as fuel convoy unit
ben_vulpes: "writing in languages i hate with people i love
to be used by hominids i'd not waste a carrot on" or what was it

☟︎ assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 18:38:30; ascii_butugychag: and increasing res should do nothing but
to make
the curves smoother.
ben_vulpes: pets consume a fixed fraction of income, may as well minimize integral of fraction over
the next decade or so.
ben_vulpes: adapting
to poverty was explicit goal of late
twenties
though.
thestringpuller: -connect/-addnode should make
those peers
the priority first and drop other nodes second
thestringpuller: is
there no manual approach for
this process yet? i.e. people sign/deed node ip address. you use -connect flag
mircea_popescu: seems
to me if gonna do it might as well do it once, but anyway.
mircea_popescu: tho it's
tangled with
the whole mempool priority
thing
punkman: I can give you a secret phrase, which if hashed and used as
torrent infohash, allows you
to get my current IPs from
torrent
tracker
punkman: suppose I have
two dozen nodes on dynamic IP
assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 23:48:49; punkman: I have a suggestion for an irc-bootstrap replacement in

takes a couple UDP packets, code's pretty simple. Recent client was using
this in a small app, kinda cool.
mircea_popescu: you can also read it online.
there's a link off ofundation website
linton_s_dawson: mircea_popescu
Thanks, I'll sign up for
the mailing list as well.
punkman: I'll post a python POC
to
the ml perhaps, could just run it before you start
the node and it gives you a bunch of IPs
to -addnode or -connect
to

assbot: Logged on 19-01-2016 23:36:09; buZz: i like how bitcoin has all
these clusters of people, with all very different societal structures and narratives
mircea_popescu: "With
that guy you never know if he has some bizarre reason
to believe it's currently 2014 and we're all idiots."
thestringpuller: asciilifeform: i ask cause
the
thread is disjointed. as you once said before !s doesn't show
the entire picture
