punkman: nah,
the difference is
they don't allow any blobs
gernika: also for
this question, lisp=common lisp
gernika: asciilifeform: does
the
term "human compiler" reference lisp specifically, in
that with lisp you can write code
that writes code,
thus if you're not using lisp, you're writing code
that could have been written by a computer, and are
thus "compiling?"

thanks for
the heads up
punkman: btw does Lemote still make any hardware
that don't need blobs?
punkman: asciilifeform:
the *right* folks
BingoBoingo: But "Netflix and chill" is
the new "come in for coffee"
punkman: the hard life of
the RMS groupie
punkman: "A friend once asked me
to watch a video with her
that she was going
to display on her computer using Netflix. I declined, saying
that Netflix was such an affront
to freedom
that I could not be party
to its use under any circumstances whatsoever." -- RMS
BingoBoingo: Seriously

linton_s_dawson: I'll read up on
that now,
thanks. Also, interesting
to see you support (or at least are not against) a new PoW
that will destroy most miners.
linton_s_dawson: I'm looking
to research
the "v"
thing you've bee
talking about but searching for
the letter "v" in
the logs is obviously not working
that well. Can anyone point me in
the right direction?
punkman: I have a suggestion for an irc-bootstrap replacement in
TRB. UDP
torrent
tracker announce, only
takes a couple UDP packets, code's pretty simple. Recent client was using
this in a small app, kinda cool.
☟︎☟︎ gernika: thestringpuller: I can't fathom slack.
There are already a
ton of manager friendly centralized IRC services out
there.
thestringpuller: slack is so shitty.
the logging is completely ineffective. oh and
they want you
to pay for extra logs? i can't even...
buZz: punkman: i just dont like
to change routine
danielpbarron: buZz, s'ok you need
to lurk for 6 months anyway; by
the end of
that you'll either have left or have a key

buZz: i like how bitcoin has all
these clusters of people, with all very different societal structures and narratives
☟︎ danielpbarron: and also because not everything needs
to be
the same
thing, and also simply because.
buZz: but its about authentication right, so even with signature i could proof i am me for i have
this address
punkman: can't encrypt
to btc address
mircea_popescu: no buZz. if you want
to be able
to voice register your pgp key with assbot.
buZz: i can use another channel
to idle in, do you mind?
cazalla: copypaste, i'm probably using
the wrong word (smooth scrolling)
to say what i mean
copypaste: ah ha, but
tearing shouldn't be seen without smooth scrolling
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron here's a lulzy bit : all
these schmucks worried about "scaling bitcoin" could, for
the price of a gpg key, make
themselves an eulora account.
trade bitcoin with everyone instantly for free!
cazalla: copypaste, how so? i see
the
tearing on anything less
than 120hz, still can see it on 120hz but isn't as noticable
buZz: this channel is
the source of
the first pr0n in
that image search
copypaste: i
think you answered your own question just now, no ?
cazalla: ignoring gaming, figured you'd see
tearing when scrolling
cazalla: asciilifeform, pete_dushenski aren't
those eizo ev2455 eye strain city with a 60hz refresh rate? prefer 120hz/144hz master race here
mircea_popescu: arguing with some idiot
that said "bitcoin is a ponzi scheme" is a waste of
time.
the relevant point is
that Bitcoin is less of a ponzi scheme
than
the us dollar is.
mircea_popescu: (in
the other view : all currency is always and necessarily a ponzi scheme. and "fraudulent" in a sense.)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: but you can't distinguish
transaction from
transaction. what know you of its meaning ?
SamPatt: Just
talking
to mircea_popescu
cazalla: thestringpuller, stay up all night chatting
together? sounds gay! :P
copypaste: who is arguing
that it is in here?
SamPatt: Unless he's proposing
that all Bitcoin
transactions are only being done
to perpetuate further fraud
then it's not a ponzi. Since I use Bitcoin for
transactions
that are for other purposes, it's clearly not ponzi
SamPatt: Only
transactions relating
to
the scheme, correct? Perhaps I'm not familiar with
the original scheme itself, but as Ponzi scheme is regularly defined
today it's just
taking in new money
to give returns
to older players.
There's no
transactions occurring except
to continue
this fraud.
mircea_popescu: SamPatt
transactions also happened with
the original ponzi.
mircea_popescu: anyway, you have more patience
than i do,
the nth bhagwan chowdhry is really no different from
the n-1th
SamPatt: Ponzi schemes are just fraud,
there's nothing of value being done. What I'm
trying
to get across is
that with Bitcoin something of value is actually happening (transactions).
mircea_popescu: stamps are also "a real
thing". original ponzi was a stamps deal.
mircea_popescu: SamPatt "Bitcoin isn’t a ponzi scheme by any stretch of
the imagination. Ponzi schemes are fraud;
there is no real investment
taking place. Bitcoin is a real
thing, used around
the world constantly." <<
this makes no sense.
mircea_popescu: "Who are
these anarchists and what are
they doing? " << oho.
SamPatt: I didn't want
to make it a "Is Hearn a core dev or not?" blog post, but just gave him
the point on
that. I do later say it's a non-event, because in
the grand scheme I agree it wasn't important.
pete_dushenski: SamPatt: aside from
that, #b-a is a forum for news, debate, development, and light lulz.
mircea_popescu: "It is
true
that a prominent member of
the Bitcoin community quit, leading
to a 10% drop in Bitcoin price. " << quite untrue. why not propose
that random derp nobody
took seriously quitting lead
to
the
turmoil on chinese stock market ?
mircea_popescu: SamPatt "Fighting for survival means
that Bitcoin is nearing collapse. It may not survive if people don’t keep fighting for it.
This is a strong claim; let’s see if he follows
this up with any evidence." << a more important point would be... fighting with WHOM ?
