http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=08-12-2015#1339102 << listen when you can speak cogently about "the bayesian method" and articulate how "millions upon millions" [of lines of code] betrays your complete lack of understanding on
the
topic of control systems we can revisit
this
assbot: Logged on 11-12-2015 00:51:10; mircea_popescu: one of my more absconse private jokes
to date!
assbot: Logged on 11-12-2015 00:38:27; mircea_popescu:
that exahash bet is interesting huh.
pete_dushenski: more intelligent
to boot, and yet both of whom left in pretty fiery blazes, compared
to btcdrak and heysteve who were both relatively quiet and relatively useless and whose lack of presence won't even be a blip on
the radar.
assbot: Logged on 10-12-2015 22:01:45; shinohai: First
time I had seen
that happen, but I've only been here since June.
BingoBoingo: This doesn't
take wisdom.
This only requires accidentaling and remembering all
the way back
to
the ancient history of
this July.
pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo:
that's giving
the usg a lot of credit on
the 'wisdom' front, certainly more
than
they've warranted
thus far.
pete_dushenski: 'antpool' has gone from 15%
to 26%, f2pool from 21%
to 24%, btcchina from 12%
to 14%, bitfury from 14%
to 11%
BingoBoingo: pete_dushenski: Consider
though
the wisdom of USG miner propping up foreign pools
that
through serendipity introduce instability
to
the network
ben_vulpes: "I will personally come out
to SF and make
this all public and have a showdown" << aha do what now i'm sorry i ohohohahaha
☟︎ ben_vulpes: mominlol has a great story about having
to be
the big bad landlady so
that
the social workers could maintain
the
trust of her evictee
BingoBoingo: From
the mines: "Just once I want
to get sent
to deal with a pronoid schizophrenic.
The guy who's convinced
that everyone is out
to help him. He believes
the FBI is watching him with
the intent of making him
their new Director. Aliens are invading Earth so
they can give him
the secret
to eternal life. He wears a
tinfoil hat
to absorb
the rays being beamed at him by
the CIA
that make him smarter and happier."
ben_vulpes: it's not great but hey you're working in
the browser
ben_vulpes: that said, clojure's a good example of how even a shitty lisp is strong enough
to wrap its
tentacles around more or less
the whole webshitstack and deliver a single cognitive environment for writing 'software'
that stretches from
the server
to
the browser
ben_vulpes would unlearn anything
to be free of
the shitstack
ben_vulpes: > one homogenous
thing << in
the same way
that
the cl compiler's available
to user code? or some level higher?
ben_vulpes: (and yes i understand why you don't want
to
talk
to anyone polluted by vn about
this
thing)
ben_vulpes: this is probably horrendously wrong, but i currently imagine some 'main' program entrypoint with subsections
that indicate
their parallelizability. is
this entirely wrong or correctably wrong?
ben_vulpes: so
there must be constraints on
the programmering style in order for an arbitrary program
to be arbitrarily parallelizable
ben_vulpes: so i
take
the little proggy i've written--would i need
to do anything special
to it in order
to
take advantage of more m^2 of compute fabric?
ben_vulpes: okay asciilifeform another strike at
the fortress of incomprehensibility
then
ben_vulpes: ;;later
tell Naphex yes yes but what about all of
the much more difficult questions re statements and income and equity and depreciation and whatnot
ben_vulpes: so
they'd have
to be "pure" (to borrow a fp-ism) in order
to serve
the arbitrary parallelism definition?
ben_vulpes: okay, do function definitions make sense in
this paradigm?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: hey boss, i keep meaning
to ask you about
the details of dataflow programming (vis a vis
turning ascii files into computation), but i'm having
trouble booking
the like 3 hours of sit-down
time it'd
take
to respond in a
timely fashion
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: you never read
the shaw lolz?
ben_vulpes: did midnightmagic ever show up
to disavow mircea_popescu?
ben_vulpes: that part's supposed
to be entertaining
ben_vulpes: this week i'm actually preferring
to hire "jr" people with broad programming experience (and varied backgrounds) for pressing into
the ipnohe and andorp squads,
theory being
that broad experience with other humans and
technologies
trumps cheap labor and misguided enthusiasm
mod6: it'll just need some very deep examination and
testing one way or another.
mod6: true.
this is a good point.
mircea_popescu: so
they're earning us slack. not
that it HAS
to be used, obv.
mircea_popescu: pre hearn&fail-bip,
the standard was pretty high. by now it's a lot easier
to argue "hey, at least it's not as bad as
THAT dumb shit"
mircea_popescu: so in a sense
they're actually working for us, unintentionally, in
their idiocy.
mircea_popescu: the more inclined
to break
the protocol
the power rangers become,
the less important it is
to actually maintain all
the warts.
danielpbarron: i'm a little surprised i didn't get suspended as well, for retwatting
the offending .. uh..
mircea_popescu: i have nfi what
they imagine
they're doing, but more power
to
them and
their clown car.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron so
this entire MONTH
trilema got exactly 3 clicks from
twitter.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron> aaaaand
the
trilema
twatter account is suspended <<< now i gotta go in
the logs, see what all
that does.
mircea_popescu: then
they DIDN'T want
to go in pro-rata on
the new round.
mod6: yeah getting rid of openssl is going
to be, an adventure. not only does
the crypto need
to be implemented, a perfect backward compatibility needs
to be maintained.
mod6: im of
the persuasion
that bitcoin should get it's own OS, eventually, when it can be built.
mod6: in
the short
term, is
there a way
to maybe do
this better
that I'm missing?
mod6: many wheels
to reinvent.
mod6: it's a
tough pill
to swallow
to sign & rely on such garbage
mod6: i do see what you're saying in a sense I
think.
mod6: i have one more bridge
to cross yet, and I havent gotten
that far yet; having a script of my own somehow check
the sigs & hashes after
the file xfrs are complete.
mod6: i
think it'll work
though. my rotor+v054 script would run
this script after extracting
the buildroot package
mod6: im not sure
this is
the best way
to handle
this
mod6: so what I'm hoping
to accomplish here is
to alter
the .mk files
that accompany buildroot, so
they pull
the 3rd party reqs directly from
the foundation site instead of wherever
they currently point
to.
☟︎ mod6: (this by no means is finished, but interested
to see what you
think about
the direction i'm
taking)
mod6: anyway, yeah, I'm looking forward
to getting
the website cleaned up and putting V up
there with vpatches.
assbot: Logged on 10-12-2015 06:49:28; assbot: Satoshi's PGP Keys Are Probably Backdated and Point
to a Hoax | Motherboard ... (
http://bit.ly/1IGiEGw )
mod6: Thanks for
the reminder
though.
mod6: <ascii_field>
trb www still shows non-v patches ?! << ok so no, not yet. after ben and I sign everything for
the release, we'll be updating
the website.
mircea_popescu: "CountOneInterrupt 2 points 1 hour ago Gotta love
that classy web design with a butt next
to
the name. It's our sister site!" << check it out! someone fucking got it!
mircea_popescu: "edmundedgar 6 points 1 hour ago Why weren't people like
this around when
they were designing CSS?" << also, buttcoin is about 50 iq points over bitcoin.
mircea_popescu: <shinohai>
top kek, mircea_popescu made buttcoin << eh,
they've got a fascination with me ever since back when
the subreddit was called somethingafwul
mircea_popescu: <cazalla_> yeah
that guy, i actually bought a hard copy of
the book
though, been working on in it 1-2 hours each evening,
trying
to make a Legend of
the Red Dragon mud
type game meets bitcoin <<< ahahaha check out
the guy
that
took a year off from btc biz :D
mircea_popescu: or maybe someone really has it in for mpoe-pr, wants her
to lose all bets.
xss: just browsing
the good ol' freenode
