mircea_popescu: you're telling me the apple's up in the tree
as if i was the one that put it there.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell pete_dushenski re the missing reports : i do intend to publish them asap. been delayed by an assortment of issues such
as argentinian power, bitbet adventures etc. they'll get there.
kakobrekla: "send their total contents
as follows" now i noted the 'total' - then you must never reuse an address.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: this is the correct format for a bitcoin transaction : "address i[1..n] send their total contents
as follows : B1 to address j1, B2 to address j2, Bm to address jm. therefore signed."
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu
as long
as the backup contains all the used change addresses you are ok
pete_dushenski: reliant robin is an excellent example of bitcoin
as it works today : looks to have the right parts but has them in the wrong order and
as a result it doesn't quite work
as intended. compare this with the morgan 3-wheeler, which is perhaps where trb is headed, which has the same parts, but not welded together by apes.
jurov: i messed that up
as usual... so adgain: input is: a hash of a previous transaction + Index of the specific output in the referenced transaction.
mircea_popescu:
as long
as the fucking address has coins and was signed, that is ALL.
jurov: you used ebc5d768836400b1e2b4b53b13390401e904491ef9d4cb530624f9434f300705
as input instead
mircea_popescu: all my inputs are actual inputs
as found in a block, not implicit inputs
as found in a txn
BingoBoingo: Round these part's they are known
as the people who make orange stuff for rural folk
ascii_butugychag: thestringpuller: l0l tracker.
as if everybody did not already know where i were going to and from.
thestringpuller: blockcypher is relaying it, but likely the miners are seeing the tx
as invalid for one of the two reasons jurov stated
pete_dushenski: if not better, seeing
as how white kids are used to lavish finished basements all to themselves and aren't used to the sardine lifestyle
☟︎ BingoBoingo: I dunno, that might work considering the trendy software shit functions
as a fiat blowoff valve
ascii_butugychag: 'This is annoying if,
as sometimes happens, the most important aspect is a singularity. Worse is the view offered by fans of the program (not necessarily WRI employees!) that an answer is correct because it is what Mathematica computes, and any view to the contrary is the fault of the user (perhaps for misunderstanding the documentation.)'
☟︎ ascii_butugychag: 'Most design errors from the earlier editions persist; indeed, some defenders of Mathematica seem to view the inevitable peculiar results of these decisions
as correct: they are replacing long-standing problems of mathematics notation or convention with a new understanding. This is an alternative world view in which an answer is said to be correct if it is “generic” and ignores sigularities.
ascii_butugychag: and naturally we get the usgtronics: '
As usual, the fact that it's possible to implement a dangerous algorithm correctly, doesn't mean it's humanely possible, and safer algorithms (and primitives) must always be preferred. (See also: deterministic ECDSA.)'
dbclk: and you also dont use patterns
as well? anyone here use trading patterns?
☟︎ PeterL:
as my mother says, "the best way to save money is to not spend it"
mats: lol, linode pwned again, for the fourth time in
as many years
assbot: Logged on 05-01-2016 22:59:23; mircea_popescu: alternatively you could also ask various monkeys masquerading
as "bitcoin devs" why the fuck they broke the protocol and are costing you money.
BingoBoingo: Seriously pete
as not the editor of their competitor you could probably write to Roger VERified bitcoin.com and get them to have a link to the fish handjob
pete_dushenski: in other nyooz, "During the year, landlords raised rents
as much
as 15% in the Brush Park district, 14% in New Center and 10% in the areas around Wayne State University and the Detroit Medical Center, according to a Midtown Detroit survey." << rents went from $1 to $1.15 per square metre per year in detroit !
pete_dushenski: "Examples: 1.) Our mid-terms are coming up soon, so you better be about it and study hard to pass. 2.)
As a member of the National Association of Black Journalist, we are expected to be about it."
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: He used to play pokemon with concussions. Retired
as a master after collecting them all.
mircea_popescu: but
as it turns out, THAT is not good enough for an actual, usable payment network.
mircea_popescu: alternatively you could also ask various monkeys masquerading
as "bitcoin devs" why the fuck they broke the protocol and are costing you money.
☟︎ mircea_ahoy: but more generally, a txn can't time out for
as long
as it's being rebroadcast.
mircea_ahoy: but hey, for
as long
as the bullshit subsidy for blocks continues, this problem will persist.
assbot: Logged on 05-01-2016 19:27:56; mircea_ahoy:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=05-01-2016#1360851 << for the record, all bets that closed for new year were paid out ~ coupla days ago. some non conforming miners have been failing to include the txn in mined blocks. this is part and parcel of bitcoin working poorly
as it does.
mircea_ahoy: direct any complaints
as to "why my txn has been waiting for x days" to anyone and everyone who is running non-conformant bitcoin implementations. starting with the pools.
☟︎ jurov: Jon Matonis: $137.5k through "THE HOLE OF ROY LLC". Salary up from $31k. Jon Matonis acted
as Executive Director up to October 2014.
mircea_popescu: that position is without any actual merit, and
as you can attest it does in fact inconvenience you.
ben_vulpes: also out of curiousity mircea_popescu would you pay for the babetruxx necessary
as well?
mircea_popescu: no, that doesn't make lying not lying, but it does make the problem of not lying
as an idiot intractable.
assbot: Logged on 05-01-2016 01:37:32; asciilifeform: my main objection to subkey
as implemented in gpg is that IT DOES NOT TELL YOU OR EVEN LET YOU CHOOSE with which modulus (i.e. which sub) it actually signs with !
thestringpuller:
As far
as I can tell social media is just Xanga on steroids.
pete_dushenski: thestringpuller: that's why instagram is ~successful~,
as least in terms of userbase, which'd be the only metric sv can conceive of
assbot: Logged on 04-01-2016 07:46:16; punkman: "Confidential data from maritime industry insiders based on engine size and the quality of fuel typically used by ships and cars shows that just 15 of the world's biggest ships may now emit
as much pollution
as all the world's 760m cars." << and the warmingtards are worried about VW
mircea_popescu: copypaste small computers may have their uses, but 70% of the iphone is the touch sensitive screen, if you'rer going to spend the money might
as well put more % of it towards buying thew actual small computer you wanted.
copypaste: mircea_popescu: to use an iphone
as a GPC, you first have to jailbreak it; which requires reverse engineering, which requires breaking the USG DMCA anti-circumvention law
mircea_popescu: so how is it illegal to use your iphone
as a fucking doorstop if that's what you want.
mircea_popescu: using the box
as a general purpose computer is illegal << what ?
copypaste: apple also ships boxes where the batteries cannot be removed and where in less free countries using the box
as a general purpose computer is illegal
ascii_butugychag: meanwhile... 'Spurious check failures happen for machines without ECC memory. Of our test systems, all machines with Intel CPUs
as well
as some AMD low-end systems lack ECC. This is a result of that AMD supports ECC generally while Intel only supports ECC for Xeon CPUs relying on more expensive motherboards. But the GMP project is struggling to afford even the cheapest hardware.'
mircea_popescu: there seems to be a pervasive meta-conviction that so and so, but i have never yet encountered the thing it purports
as a practical matter.
as best i can determine it's just another fashion, self-induced. people have read "on the internet" that the government hid elvis in hoffa's urinary tract and so now "everyone thinks so".
ascii_butugychag: and mircea_popescu may be confusing 'is' and 'ought' - the woman's place-in-the-world is something quite like titled nobility,
as it is
mircea_popescu: this is what "civilisation" misunderstood
as no beatings and overgenerous welfare (such
as school loans, and such
as alimony, and so on) has created.
mircea_popescu: you recall my explanation
as to why any socialism is always and necessarilyt going to be unsatisfactory to the ruled mass ?
mircea_popescu: for
as long
as you're committed to not beating the woman, the necessary result is a vicious circle of ever more annoying, lazy bitches.
mircea_popescu: the coderz are getting progressively dumber
as an unavoidable necessity.
mircea_popescu: i can do the grepping i do on computers
as they are. and if they'll be twice
as fast i won't notice. like i've not noticed any improvement since the 90s.
mircea_popescu: wherein there is some rudimentary sensation and motility
as an aggregate.
mircea_popescu: and
as such, a subclass of "so just stop using the damned colored unicode bs". not gonna happen.
mircea_popescu:
as a result it ends up embarassed by charlotte manning or w/e that was.
mircea_popescu: if she had to repay all her debts (and forget the financial angle - if she had to do all the work to count
as educated at the level of education she perceives herself to occupy, manifest inability to think or even spell be damned) she'd simply figure "life is not worht living" and lie in a ditch to die.
mircea_popescu: the other fact of the matter however is that most if not all of those 16 women don't even own a scarf that could be used
as described. because they don't buy by THAT criteria.
mircea_popescu:
as such, it is conceivable that z-80 powered trb can actually drive into the ground 12nm process powered united-prbs.
mircea_popescu: the idea being that there are two discrete and identifiable uses of computing power. one is
as above : leverage for already present intelligence. the other is
as in the webstack : compensation for absent intelligence.
mircea_popescu: where a sequence of eleven Unicode characters would be intended to be rendered
as a single colourized glyph showing a multiracial family." << these people fundamentally misunderstand what an alphabet is.
fluffypony: I want to represent myself
as a strong black woman pony
punkman: hoc Committee has come up with an cunning solution that allows for the combination of emoji characters, emoji modifier characters and zero-width joiner characters to produce arbitrary emoji glyphs, where a sequence of eleven Unicode characters would be intended to be rendered
as a single colourized glyph showing a multiracial family."
punkman: "By themselves these five characters are intended to be displayed
as square fragments of colour, but when combined with any of a defined set of Unicode characters representing people or human body parts they should magically change the character's skin tone."
punkman: for the Unicode Consortium to encode racially diverse versions of emoji characters representing humans or human body parts, and under intense pressure from the public, the media, and consortium members such
as Apple and Google, the Unicode Technical Committee put forward a set of five emoji skin tone modifier characters
as a solution."
punkman: "
As the representative glyphs for people in the Unicode code charts look in many cases
as if they represent white people, even in monochrone, and
as the earliest implementations of multicoloured glyphs tended to show very pale skin tones, there has been an impression that Unicode is only catering for a certain racial demographic. Over the last year or two there have been widespread calls
punkman: "Confidential data from maritime industry insiders based on engine size and the quality of fuel typically used by ships and cars shows that just 15 of the world's biggest ships may now emit
as much pollution
as all the world's 760m cars." << and the warmingtards are worried about VW
☟︎ BingoBoingo: "will aim to show that Mein Kampf (My Struggle) is incoherent and badly written, rather than powerful or seductive. From the original book's 1,000 pages, the publisher has produced a two-volume book that is twice
as long
as the original, with 3,700 annotations."
BingoBoingo: " it is possible that USG agents will use lethal force in the form of burning the entire forest down in order to clear out this pocket of resistance to their oppression,
as they burned down the Branch Davidian compound in Waco to eliminate those dissidents." << Does this bite more?
BingoBoingo: Not the beats electronic business, but beats
as in the background audio
thestringpuller: pete_dushenski: I don't trust Suge Knight at all. He's sketchy
as fuck, so I would take what he says with a grain of salt.
