ascii_field:
as soon
as i type out a symbol, it ought to be in the completion list
ascii_field: and that what we have now makes the same amount of sense
as having a separate gas and brake pedal for each of 4 wheels in a car.
ben_vulpes: ascii_field: i have *just* (
as in the past week) located my wot's signal analyzer
trinque: ascii_field: it has; in this case reconnected
as deedbot-- but could not auth
mircea_popescu: to put this morning's set of realisations in a simple, clear package : making a battleship is nowhere near
as good
as making a battleship out of ustard decapitated heads.
ascii_field: but 'handful of servers' is what we have today, and it falls over when enemy so much
as sneezes at it.
mircea_popescu:
as long
as she sucks the cock and you buy her food, who the fuck cares what you call it.
mircea_popescu: the only problem with this "abundance perspective" being thgat the measure often is something
as retarded
as "how large the grease spot on the paper is"
pete_dushenski: "New York is by no means Mafia-free. But the mob isn’t what it once was, enfeebled by decades of police crackdowns, media attention and old age. The Mafia has been relegated largely to the realm of entertainment, just
as Manhattan’s Italian culture has become a tourist attraction."
pete_dushenski: "Michael Norton, a psychologist at the Harvard Business School, has found that on average, whites now view discrimination against members of their own race
as a larger problem than discrimination against blacks."
adlai has only heard about it secondhand
as a complaint, so b&hammers are likely on their way already
mircea_popescu: if they're going to make show you up x hours early because security theatre, might
as well spend them wasting their time.

as kooky
as the bizarre neo-Nazi revisions I read in my youth, but is more troubling, because, where the right wing kooks who wanted to paint humanity’s largest killing with a bizarrely fantastical brush of Germanic innocence were rightly ignored, the lefties are find

as the world’s SWAT team.' << aha

☟︎ ascii_field: '1. Books ghost written for a Fox news Op-ed figure, 2. Jingoistic tomes on the defeat of the evil Nazi empire by “the greatest generation” of Americans, revealing
as yet unfathomed Nazi evils and under-appreciated American heroics. [WWII is no longer, apparently recognized
as having had a Russian or Japanese component, and the Third Reich is represented
as an engine of global extermination that was
ascii_field: at no point must a gossip packet's apparent source ip be treated
as meaningful.
mod6: This is a clean break point to start working on the rest of these large pieces such
as the mempool.
☟︎ mod6: then get these tasks written up and broken down if possible
as a road map for '16.
jurov: ben_vulpes: why? and bitcoin sends 0.0.0.0 or localhost
as "own address" anyway
danielpbarron: from the yoga cancelled thing >> Ms. Scharf offered to rebrand the class
as "mindful stretching," but student leaders did not think that was enough.
mircea_popescu:
as it is, it's free marketing for "21co"'s next potato.
mircea_popescu: if only we had a cardano ready to ship so this discussion could double
as marketing for the s.nsa next product.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field quote
as to "opened my eyes", i know where the concrete hole is from
mircea_popescu: but a firm guarantee can be offered that for
as long
as you allocate structs smaller than n, you wioll be able to fit them.
mircea_popescu: actually, i suppose i should go into detail
as we have no good reason to suspect we actually agree on anything but the words. so :
jurov: re: ring buffer - does not solve the fragmentation the moment you want to reorder txs by fee. i see it
as either using slab allocator or periodically dumping whole mempool to disk and reread it
ascii_field: not even a bad idea, it's this vaguely standardml-like contraption where you try to prove that your crypto alg works
as specced
mircea_popescu: "Although the potential development of quantum computers threatens the security of many common forms of cryptography such
as RSA, "
ascii_field: i'd even go
as far
as to suggest the use of lamport signatures
mircea_popescu: for some reason i read that
as ram parity check something-or-the-other.
mircea_popescu: of course, there's a 2nd layer of problems : had the code been neatly written by someone obviously clueful
as to the fundamentals of computer programming, would we have believed.
ascii_field: and,
as mircea_popescu mentioned earlier, there is also the problem of fragging, which none of this even begins to deal with, nor is anything like a clean/simple solution to it known to me
mircea_popescu: "That contrary to planted disinformation of which the Guardian article is a fine example, the NSA has complete and unlimited, instantaneous access to any and all information passed through the TOR network in its entirety,
as a matter of course and by design."
mircea_popescu: "TLDR: Fat with knee problems. Fat mother. Fat people are a cancer. " << i wonder how come people will throw an absolute hissy fit should mother dare smoke, yet nobody seems to get too worried should mother be obese. yet smoking is not nearly
as damaging
as obesity.
assbot: Logged on 28-11-2015 00:10:35; mircea_popescu: anyway, point remains, if someone [such
as jurov] decides to spend a day on this he should have to use
as little
as possible hunting the history
as that leaves
as much
as possible to actually doing work.
mircea_popescu: dumbest fucking idea. why THE FUCK would the transport layer be even aware of pgp
as opposed to plaintext.
mircea_popescu: there's no reason for it to be "good" when kuhn describes it
as a way for scientists to keep from being too stupid and also "bad" when ayers describes it
as a way for red necks to still manage to fit in with their neighbours without shooting each other too much.

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-11-2015#1332526 << for the record/future and
as best practice : mod6's style of doing these, with pastes etc is much better, because it allows later effort to build upon previous effort. deedbot- is also not a bad venue to store this sort of thing, seeing how it's just code atm. "when i do so and so this is the bt resultant".
☝︎ mircea_popescu: yeah, one of these days we'll make a sore point list of things,
as a necessary [early] step towards printable btc.
mircea_popescu: the usage of statics in that pile is still not understood [in its implications]. stands
as a major sore point to this very day, six years later.
ascii_field: but if you do invoke the destructors (
as i later did) - you crash.
phf: jurov: the goal is to get bitcoind working with pogo's limited memory. the problem is that a running bitcoind grows in memory use
as a result of normal operations. we know that some processes claim a lot of memory by design, like mempool, so first step is to get a reliable way of cleaning out mempool. ascii wrote that patch, but discovered that in practice zapmempool doesn't reduce memory use.
assbot: Logged on 19-08-2015 14:32:04; asciilifeform: thestringpuller: this patch does not work
as described, on account of boost idiocy (removal of items from the hash does not invoke their destructures! believe)
phf: jurov: clear not working is my broken telephone of that ascii was saying in the logs. i've only gotten
as far
as making sure that the code ~seems~ to be working, hence my conclusion, which is that mempool is somehow not just mapTransactions & mapNextTx
BingoBoingo: Well, not confirmed courpses yet. Local news has stopped referring to the officers though
as "wounded" and has transitioned to "shot" to describe their condition

brg444: I'm guessing you also dared take the plunge into the literature
as well? (Bastiat, etc.)
pete_dushenski: and now,
as i speak it out loud to mein heir on a daily basis, i'm practicing more than i have since i was 10 years old !
brg444: might
as well mention "c'est à dire" should really be "c'est-à-dire"...
brg444: btw pete_dushenski was reading your last article on contravex. great stuff
as usual but noticed a typo, if you care: 2nd "exclusivity" should be "exclusive"?
mircea_popescu: "alfdog the cat" could be a decent comic. it's about a dog who identifies
as a cat.
BingoBoingo: <thestringpuller> BingoBoingo: this would make a great scene for alfdog the movie << I kinda though alf identified more
as a cat.
assbot: Logged on 26-11-2015 16:31:44; asciilifeform: (fwiw the subject has no emotional button push for me, because i don't expect to last for
as long
as five seconds under feudalism)
mircea_popescu: let's work an example with sluts, easier to take women
as objects than yourself
as an object.
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: i did not say 'wot is useless' but that i in particular do not -
as demonstrated experimentally not long ago - command particularly much market value there. << the idea is not that you command anything. the conversion from postmodern derp to feudal subject is not done under the control of the derp.
mircea_popescu: by definition.
as they aren't owners, the only thing they can be is looters.
mircea_popescu: the usgtards like to act
as if that future point is here, because they're too enamoured of the swamp they inhabit.
mircea_popescu: what happens to gold when no more mining is possible ? (
as you know, gold is finite in the universe)
assbot: Logged on 26-11-2015 15:00:55; mircea_popescu: (bitcoin unintelligently transformed its already minor cost into a disasters of commons situation, due to the fact that satoshi had about
as much financial experience
as a holywood star. but anyway.)

as horrible insecurity everywhere else in europe, while romania's sterling cannons guarantee it'll be fine), you decide to pay 106 cents for the dollar, your yiedl will be
