mircea_popescu: owait, the task includes copy/paste from/to eulora?
jurov:
mircea_popescu: you need to do sth with the inodes
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: where was your article with the boy, gurl, two frag grenades, and a length of twine ?
ascii_field: not a bad test of how 'bulletproof'
mircea_popescu's new fleet of boxes is ?
shinohai: @
mircea_popescu I *think* I sent an email correctly in order to purchase some trilema credits
mod6: <+
mircea_popescu> mod6 i think this is related to "askl your isp" << yeah.
decimation:
mircea_popescu: not to mention also ruin $1000000k commerce in the process
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: we were discussion a variant where nodes ask one another
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: it is inapplicable for pogo
ascii_field: as
mircea_popescu points out, 'once' is a many-time thing here
ascii_field: i.e. how many counts since last time
mircea_popescu asked
ascii_field: but now he wants to ~tell
mircea_popescu the time~
decimation:
mircea_popescu: all of those could be forged by hitler
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: almost all timekeeping is really for ordering!
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: right now we have usg clock!
punkman:
mircea_popescu: this dies, because you will find a random block which is 00000000000000000000000000000f and game over. << this is incorrect. you don't infer the target from the hash. 256bit target is included in all block headers.
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: actually it may very well be formalizable game-theoretically
ascii_field: not that i seriously disagree with
mircea_popescu's intuition, but it is not obviously clear to me that we're speaking of a perpetuum mobile
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: you've described... farming!
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: you realize that is exactly how the ntp nodes with which we're ddosed work
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: may as well ship a pc then!
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: the speed of the sound of the drum is negligible in comparison to the speed at which push wave propagates through a crowd
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: i can see where you're going. but it still can be sunk
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: if we lack a clock, we are wide open to replay attack
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: yes, though i've forgotten the exact number. 500MHz i think it was.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform re the entire timing discussion : suppose the pogo gets started always with a realtime switch, -time=14blablabla, and after that gets its time from the most recent block it accepts and checks for next ones being within +-7200 seconds.
assbot: Logged on 07-07-2015 10:50:32;
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform uh. the one published actually encompasses the first fork. i have other chains (also historical) that aren't wedged, but i had thought yours passed that point ?
punkman:
mircea_popescu: well, sure.
Adlai:
mircea_popescu: too bad only the dumb&industrious students will do that. the smart&lazy just go to sipa's charts...
assbot: Logged on 07-07-2015 00:13:16; asciilifeform: unrelated: folks competing for
mircea_popescu's 1 btc prize for therealbitcoin callgraph can strike 'egypt' utility off the list. it is a worthless pile of shit, which produces worthless piles of shit (at least for cpp proggy)
jurov: they aren't still there only cuz
mircea_popescu mediated it
gribble: brendafdez was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 14 weeks, 5 days, 4 hours, 33 minutes, and 8 seconds ago: <brendafdez>
mircea_popescu it works now. Anyway the IP I'm on now is one of a public AP, it shouldnt be whitelisted. I'll later give you my home IP, and BingoBoingo has my VPS IP already. I didn't know you were filtering.
decimation: 00:06:36
mircea_popescu: leaving aside the inept spin they published, why the fuck are we pricing things in dollars.
decimation: 00:06:24
mircea_popescu: "Note that the roughly 50% of the network that was SPV mining had explicitly indicated that they would enforce the BIP66 rules. By not doing so,
decimation: 00:01:17
mircea_popescu: i dunno when it became fashionable to be infantile, but i'm getting pretty sick of it.
decimation: 00:01:03
mircea_popescu: because yes, we're fucktarded enough to not notice what's proposed here is a closed f2pool - antpool loop. they're over there in their own
ascii_field: ;;later tell
mircea_popescu please consider posting your blkxxxx which encompass the two most recent forks

mircea_popescu: anyway, the main sufferance in my head atm is that reading the chinese stuff (in translation) clarifies in my head an objection that may well be a second major flaw to the protocol, after the "relay nodes gotta do it for the glory" : its altogether unclear a purely financial incentive is the correct solution for miners.
ascii_field: as (i think it was)
mircea_popescu pointed out, it looks like the miners have not been sufficiently darwined yet
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: why so certain that impossible ?
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: my objection was 'uses magic key'
assbot: Logged on 06-07-2015 19:56:14; danielpbarron: jurov

mircea_popescu: there is presently no mechanism for 'pull blocks ONLY FROM THESE'

mircea_popescu: ascii_field i have nfi why unixtime "locales" are implemented so braindamagedly anyway. all machines should have the same exact integer for time. then if you wish to localize it, localize it on top of that
ascii_field: ben_vulpes: i brought up this point before. asked
mircea_popescu why we insist on making it so easy for gavinists to wall off our net from the rubes. iirc
mircea_popescu said 'fuck them all'
ben_vulpes:
mircea_popescu: it doesn't make a practical difference, but it pins a pointless magic variable at its "infinity" value, in the zero, one infinity mapping.
ascii_field:
mircea_popescu: it was intended to work as you stated above
ascii_field: ;;later tell
mircea_popescu turns out it was the epoch time
hdbuck: hello
mircea_popescu, just passing by to say thx for the rating

mircea_popescu: if you liked clements tall tales, you might get a kick out of Glynn-Ward's "Glamour of British Columbia"

mircea_popescu: not unless you get amir taaki to "open source" it.

mircea_popescu: what's your seeder IP again?

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform of course, if phuctor is this starved for io, would it be a good idea to move that thing to ssd ? maybe even raid ?

mircea_popescu: danielpbarron ideally take them apart and send them as parts he says

mircea_popescu: "you wanted to benefit from responsible disclosure protections, you should have been in the wot" "but at the time i made that decision it seemed a no brainer, why expend the effort" "right. this is why you die."

mircea_popescu: decimation their branchline is in no sense backwards. it is currently the consensus of thinking people (alf said "ru", but really, i agree, everyone with any sense agrees, ru is no determinant) that they are in point of fact broadly correct,

mircea_popescu: the sad result of post-war welfarism being that "the west" is now in this sad position where the brightest minds are in the heads of some unwashed horde somewhere in the mideast.

mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> resolution of thoughtchain forks is not even close to a solved problem. << the resolution per se is probably as you point out not even approachable as a problem, which is unsurprising seeing how it logically predates the notion of problem. nevertheless, the resolution of THE PROBLEM of thoughtchain forks is actually a very well understood thing.

mircea_popescu node on dulap is still wedged. and apparently this is not a terribly good place for a node, phuctor gets i/o-starved and dies

mircea_popescu: this is in fact a big problem, and it was a major scientific advantage. in 3000 ad. five fucking thousand years ago.
cazalla: nah,
mircea_popescu said that, must've misread or we've gone inception or something

mircea_popescu: in general disputes over land utilization resolve in favour of the more intensive.
trinque: punkman: just losers in their 20s panhandling because as
mircea_popescu said, nobody cares enough to beat them up for it
