mircea_popescu: yeah, anyone wanna run a tmsr tshirts bidniss ? preferably someone who isn'
t a lazy math guy who pretends to lie to self and call it "downshifting" or w/e.
mod6: <+shinohai> Have a tshirt made with that pic of mircea_popescu in Egypt, but replace the pyramids with burning ethereum logos. << the drawing of Mr. P. that was made a while back would be a good
t-shirt.
phf: half way through i realized i wasn'

t exist
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform a nononon, this isn'
t a count. this is THE NUMBER OF! you know how they say "i got their number" ? like that!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform "i gave at the common office, mr exploit, pls don'
t fuck me."
thestringpuller: Aha. "peace" is the part I didn'
t understand. "the prequisite" is a treaty, not a war proclamation.
mircea_popescu: item A is a discussion of what at the time was a possible outcome, something of the kind of "if we don'
t fortify these walls and enemy army comes over, we're fucked". this has been muchly degraded meanwhile, principally by "well, every march lord on their path has harried the fuck out of them, and so not much of an army left".
thestringpuller: I don'
t see a good scenario where TRB could deploy a fork i.e. "the prequisite".
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo check it out, the top hit is about how he wore a don'

thestringpuller: trinque: no. most of my female friends prefer "actual guys" you know the ones who don'
t live at home in their mom's basement jerking off to girls on reddit all day.
mircea_popescu: and the shit they netflix isn'
t even fit for in-flight entertainment, admittedly a low bar.
thestringpuller: exactly. but unattractive in the way of "get the fuck away from me I wouldn'
t fuck you if you were the last man on earth"
mircea_popescu: they have the option to spurn bullshit. they don'
t, they seek bullshit.
mircea_popescu: so : they have the option to be varied in hardware. not only they don'
t take it : they AMPLY eschew it.
mircea_popescu: anyway. the existential, fundamental, first and foremost threat to bitcoin is emerging to be, the essentially centralizing nature of the modern human. slave's born to live in empire, so if there's a lot of slaves, there'll be an empire. once nero died it wasn'

mircea_popescu: 96." | L4 : "there's no rsa collisions in the wild" ; R4 : "if you don'
t count the 300 or so phuctor found" and on and on and on it goes in this vein. at this point i do not expect any "common sense" held truth about any network to be any closer to reality than what miss america thinks on the subject.

t think i was mitm'd, 13 machines and all, not that it's not possible or anything, and the machines were on the same provider, so, lol, of course possible in principle. but specific mitm's which give working unique keys? hm. but, interesting, i don'
t have an answer here.
jurov: lol i was then prolly mitm'd too.. aside from ~10 cases of obvious corruption (openssh won'
t even read them) i did not find any key with factor in 10000primes.txt
Framedragger: asciilifeform: maybe i did fuck up in some very unique way. don'

mircea_popescu: sedol lost to a machine that doesn'
t even know what beans are.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform quite so. it's palpably an elephant cemetery. won'
t do anything ever, because it's done by an ocd clean person.
mircea_popescu: ftr, i wouldn'
t take cyc for anything other than a fine guide of what not to do.
mircea_popescu: that we don'
t have this in a box is simply because nobody wants to do any work.
mircea_popescu: there doesn'
t exist currently any ocr package that uses a proper statistical model, and is self-trained on the text, and on all text.
mircea_popescu: if proggy has no fucking idea modems don'
t go with macbeth a) it's not trained and b) everyone involved is fired.
mircea_popescu: there's really no reason a 100% accuracy over 1mb text ocr can'
t be had today.
mircea_popescu: google has the patience to fuck with go, hasn'
t the patience to fix ocr ?
mircea_popescu: seriously, this is allowed, "graphics" that aren'
t svg and text that's not tex ?!
mircea_popescu: yeah, it's vaguely inhuman, this. the scholar in me is constantly opressed by various shits. 1. "oh we don;
t alphabet - pdf" 2. "oh you can'
t reference text snippet" 3. "oh we forget, what was this ? linkrot ?" and i think there's more
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mod6: that thread wasn'

trinque: I don'
t see how it's better than html shat in a folder somewhere
mod6: <+trinque> sometime I could hack another field onto it; I'm not certain I like the thing (or wikis) << I don'
t love wikis either, but we need a place for quick docs.
trinque: they're really a response to "tards can'
t into html"
mircea_popescu: "we won'
t bury the corpse until nsa provides a new trough"
mircea_popescu: i don'
t think you fully appreciate just how braindamaged this "laughing gas of the future" actually is.
mircea_popescu: they wouldn'
t have discoverd it exists week-and-a-half after "having a solution" and buolding consensus etc
mircea_popescu: ethereum being "smart", it's not just mempool, but also cpupool. and the "soft fork" being essentially a "enumerate badness" attempt, you still gotta check and make sure tx isn'
t on the verboten list. which computation you do for free, because you believe in mit, socialism and buterin.
☟︎ BingoBoingo: asciilifeform: Don'
t forget to change the bait or you'll zap everything but mosquitos!
mircea_popescu: wtf else, putin doesn'

shinohai: So it is the fault of the leavers this probablr hamplanet can'
t get 4,000 calories a day BingoBoingo ?
phf: the one that i knew wasn'
t really running it movie back of hand style (or i guess it wasn'
t like this special thing, "where's my money bitch"). money brought was income and "he takes care of me" etc
mircea_popescu: there isn'
t a "special" situation where you're a pimp but that's ok because you're not really a pimp.
a111: Logged on 2016-06-27 21:06 phf: fwiw we're saying same thing, but a paper doesn'
t need to reveal some major secrets to be worthwhile, ~this~ particular paper takes a tired and ideologically aligned "it's them eggheads and their lisp that did it"
a111: Logged on 2016-06-27 21:04 phf: asciilifeform: not at all 100% usg, that's why there was the west coast symbolics media lab, also government didn'
