mircea_popescu: "Prime Minister Yatsenyuk was recently hauled off
the podium by his crotch; how dignified is
that?" << coming soon,
to a white house near you.
mircea_popescu: heh.
this perennial willingness
to NOT discuss, if at all possible
to UNdiscuss all
the fuckups is so fucking dumb already.
mircea_popescu: "But for
the US, and for
the EU, it is now yet another major foreign policy embarrassment, and
the less said about it
the better."
mircea_popescu: but hey, at
times i enjoy my painstakingly recreated version of
the 80s.
assbot: Logged on 24-12-2015 02:00:29; asciilifeform: funny, given how i'm just about
to (mostly) stop...
ben_vulpes cannot recall what
triggers
this message
thestringpuller: i'm running mod6's new
test2 script with alf's version string patched in.
thestringpuller: something from bdb, but I
thought
that was all statically linked?
thestringpuller: mod6: ben_vulpes anyone seen
this error? 'unable
to join
the environment' in db.log ?
mircea_popescu: i
think
teh qntra backuping process suffered some improvements lol
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Yes. On
the plus side now people have
to read everything.
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell mike_c does your wot
thinger spit out json anywhere?
assbot: Need a name
to rate and a rating, optionally comment.

ben_vulpes: tonight is whitespace night in
the sweet republic of bitcoin
assbot: You need
to specify one nick.
assbot: Logged on 23-12-2015 22:38:37; linton_s_dawson: If something ca be done in an easy-to-use manner, it should be done. I'm aware of
the "if you're
too lazy
to learn you don't deserve it" logic but I don't completely agree with it.

thestringpuller: be grateful
that you don't have
to modular-exponentiate by hand.
assbot: Logged on 23-12-2015 22:25:35; linton_s_dawson: Anyone running
thebitcoin.foundation client on a Raspberry Pi 2? I'd like
to assemble a node and see if
the Pi is a good idea.
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell linton_s_dawson
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-12-2015#1351345 << not anyone afaik.
theoretically speaking it wouldn't likely work
too well yet - not enough resources on
the pi
to be a real node. nevertheless, as a didactic / research sort of project rather
than something
to go in production
trying would be interesting, if for nothing else
then because nobody;s
tried it yet.
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: ironically, i suppose both
the impairment and
the sewer comments apply. life!
BingoBoingo: I
thought it was because you "discovered"
this morning
assbot: Logged on 23-12-2015 19:58:01; ascii_field: but imho
the db
thing needs
to be a simple mechanism written specifically for bitcoin
mircea_popescu is reasonably impressed. had ben_vulpes pegged for "this guy's managed
to put himself in a
texbook model of a place where guys crack".
☟︎ ben_vulpes: i suspect maintaining
that java/c layer would be more expensive
than just beating adequate performance out of sqlite was
☟︎ ben_vulpes: corvette is hiding from
the rain, wife is back in
the kitchen, and child is inflating at normal biological rates
mircea_popescu: anyway.
this is how bitcoin ended up with bdb i suspect. infinitydb might be an option.
they all suck.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: lol. hey, how's life with
the
thunderbird,
the wife,
the studio and
the new kid ?
ben_vulpes: actually what's an embeddable-via-c relational db
that does r-trees besides sqlite?
☟︎ ben_vulpes: i know first hand
the costs of making it do...stuff.
mircea_popescu: sorta like a birthday balloon works in all usecases
that don't require anything of it.
assbot: Logged on 23-12-2015 19:50:53; ascii_field: it was
the reason phuctor was sloooooooooooow
mircea_popescu: this is
the problem of having a
trb in
the first place :
the
temptation
to assume it's sane is just
too great.
assbot: Logged on 23-12-2015 19:45:54; cazalla_: ;;later
tell BingoBoingo y u delete muh star wars comment from qntra? censorship! need
to put qntra on a blockchain obv :P
mircea_popescu: one is supposed
to simply assume it had whatever he uses on his machine.
ben_vulpes: how
the fuck on earth is one supposed
to know if
the original
text had \n, \r, \r\n or whatever
the original hodgepodge of linefeeds was
to begin with?
ben_vulpes: armor -- most poorly-named flag in
the history of nix
tools.
ben_vulpes: i must be
the last person
to have figured
this out or something.
ben_vulpes: 'cause i'm looking at 2
text files with different shasum 256's and
the precise same
text except for linefeeds
ben_vulpes: and whitespace on linefeeds in between blocks of
text in signed files?
ben_vulpes: is it old news
that gnupg dgaf about linefeed
types?
BingoBoingo wouldn't mind having a
T-34
to convert into a camper van
BingoBoingo: Also funkenstein if you may any comments on Qntra last week you gotta remake
them. If you didn't you still have
to make new comments anyways.
funkenstein_: Speaking of potatoes:
Tensions rise in Europe when
the Russian government announces
that it is launching a new business start-up called
Tuber, described as “like Uber, except with
tanks.”
BingoBoingo: I'm still not certain whether
they are or are not
the same person
phf: ;;later

☟︎ mats: asciilifeform: good

shinohai: Victoria got
testy when called out on
their spam lel. My 4th
twitter block
this year.
BingoBoingo: props for
that go
to /r/buttcoin for
their archive bot
phf: so kind of like "we have
this system we don't know how it works but we need
to get
the data out"
phf: oh right
that would be part of ediscovery
phf: who
typically looks for services like
that besides alphabet agencies and antivirus companies?
mats: it has been busy at
the kitten recycling plant
mod6: hm. i like what it does, but not every
turd probably belongs in
the chain.
mod6: i
think
they both do it.
mod6: lol, we seriously need our own paste mech
that doesnt do
that.
mod6: oh maybe it was dpaste
that added 'em in or w/e
mod6: <+trinque>
thestringpuller:
the script had dos line endings, which is why in recent logs I mentioned running it
through dos2unix << wat?
thestringpuller: damn
the
things we
take for granted like character encoding ~_~
