pete_dushenski: the top end one.
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> fluffy corgi ? got a pic ? << Challenge because of few good options to move pics from turdopnoHe to Interwebs since Imgur app went retarded
pete_dushenski: hell, copter's cheaper than ipNohe (top end)
asciilifeform: (for anyone unfamiliar with the subject - serious multicopter aficionados sneer at luserdom, and build strictly from parts)
asciilifeform: (the costly machines fly themselves, luser points and grunts on his ipNohe to give coordinates)
asciilifeform: most recently, went into one that had gps-guided gigantic quadrocopters for sale. at ~1300 usd a pop, even. funnily, they sell. and idiots fly them into various 'forbidden zones' like whitehouse, etc.
BingoBoingo: <pete_dushenski> no one buys, many coo and gawk and maybe even walk in to buy some perfume << TrueFax, brother and his wife got their newest corgi AT A DISCOUNT because it had the "fluffy" mutation

pete_dushenski: and he draws in customers into his store with cnc machines in the front window
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: presumably the shop keeper pays rent
pete_dushenski: sounds to me like it's 100% posturing that no estan pobres
asciilifeform: unless the whole thing is a front, someone is buying
pete_dushenski: that they're still for sale.
asciilifeform does not follow the syllogism
pete_dushenski: perhaps the number of cnc machines for sale in buenos aires is indicative of the lack of thinking folks there ?
asciilifeform: (and iirc he, unlike i, had even been inside at one time)
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes was standing right next to me when i saw this.
asciilifeform: both cnc and traditional mills, lathes, in a little shop.

pete_dushenski: asciilifeform what makes you think anyone is arhentina is buying cnc machinery ?
pete_dushenski: oh, i guess i also played 'words with friends' but that's really just scrabble, not much of a 'computer game'
pete_dushenski: aha. didn't know that.
cazalla: pete_dushenski, that became an ios game at the tail end of its lifetime ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 06-10-2015 20:27:24; mircea_popescu: somehow. dunno how. but gamers and strippers is the winner combo.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-10-2015#1293061 << been reading more about gaming marketing. stumbled across popcap games, which reminded me that once upon a time, more than a half-decade ago, i actually played an iOS game for a stretch : plants vs. zombies (tower defense game) ☝︎
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: i still think there are thinking folks hidden deep in b-a. ~somebody~ is buying that cnc machinery. ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 06-10-2015 19:52:02; mircea_popescu: anyway. the advantage of anon & disappeared as opposed to "going to every conference that serves pasta" is that you don't have to face the "i fucking expected better of you" reproach.
pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-10-2015#1293010 << at least until pr pete shows up. then the lay-low-party's over. ☝︎

pete_dushenski: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-10-2015#1292453 << and here i was imaging mp shmoozing with local intelligencia that he'd somehow attracted with a giant magnet from clear across the country, having his girls pour bubbly while the conversation drifted from how one tests for ~actual genuine bohemian glass~ to the best surgeon's stitch for a knife wound in the back to the best source for local huevos to ☝︎
pete_dushenski: hm. guess so. til.
pete_dushenski: ;;later tell mike_c the discrepancy is that of the +/- sign. Strangely, just since last night, the sign indicated in the 'direct' row changed from (-) to () (aka (+)), but the graph line is still red instead of green, as seen here : http://www.contravex.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/btcalpha-sign-silliness.png.
pete_dushenski: also, i know that you can rate in private. sheesh u guise.

cazalla: those little brown balls are dry and when broken up seem to spread in the air like a dandelion
cazalla: not on the trees or plants, just the soil
BingoBoingo: Any of them have shit looking vaguely like that growing on them?
cazalla: finding it on top of potted plants too
BingoBoingo: Any nearby trees?
cazalla: does anyone know what this is? finding many of them on the surface of the garden most mornings, thought i was going crazy at first as i removed a couple but they are popping up everywhere http://i.imgur.com/U5SSbtU.jpg
punkman: another possibility is that it'd let you choose multiple heads and then it'd lookup all ascendants of chosen heads and press with those
punkman: ascii_field: my only real quibble with the preview of this (or was it punkman's ??) 'v' shown a while back, is that it used interactive questions to user << yeah it can export the patch sequence and you can then press without interaction
punkman: http://habrahabr.ru/company/mosigra/blog/268211 << love the winter scooter https://habrastorage.org/files/cb0/236/32e/cb023632e8c64a66b45c2c1ae5e86ca3.jpeg
mod6: asciilifeform: yeah, ok - this works just fine now, seems even more clean than getopt::long.
mod6: ascii_field: so yah, now that the code is pretty much complete, I'll see if I can get rid of getopt::long and elegantly implement the options handling on my own.
mod6: Eh, who knows, maybe I can take another wack at that part before I'm finished here.
mod6: Tried out Getopt::Long and it was able to do what I wanted with much less arm-wrestling.
mod6: I actually started with this, but .. it got hairy to control some of the input.
ascii_field: why does it demand the - ?
mod6: one major difference is i'm using Getopt::Long to control user input -- which ends up altering flags instead of 'w' for wot, ends up being '-w' or '--wot' but I think we can get over that.
mod6: ah, no this thing doesn't prompt at all. just command line flags. works a lot like your implementation. no caching, etc.
ascii_field: as in, there ought to be no operations which result in prompts
ascii_field: 'v' really needs to be a pure commandline thing
ascii_field: my only real quibble with the preview of this (or was it punkman's ??) 'v' shown a while back, is that it used interactive questions to user
mod6: then will publish to th elist.
mod6: so that's the only thing left and then just user documentation. and then can start passing around the first version for people to try out to ensure of zero major defects.
mod6: yeah. i mean, "cucumber automated test that surrounds (gives coverage to) the press function"
mod6: almost there :]
mod6: sweet, V code is basically complete. one remaining test left to write surrouding 'press' (shouldn't take long), then just documentation to write about the thing.
trinque: many houses in Portland had that stairstepped portion as on the bridge
ascii_field: imho the only man to have ever gotten anywhere studying invention in the abstract.

ascii_field: re: triz:
trinque: Given that the main problem of the country - to cope with different types of DDoS on the infrastructure due to the large number of users, different solutions are born. For example, the train has a separate toilet and separate washrooms. Excellent TRIZ principle - separation. << thinking about human DDOS... awesome.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu et al: http://habrahabr.ru/company/mosigra/blog/268211 << user interfaces in china. interesting enough to be worth the work (googletranslate if you must)

gribble: artifexd was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 23 weeks, 5 days, 22 hours, 48 minutes, and 43 seconds ago: <artifexd> I'm comfortable calling it a review. Not just of what it is but what it was and how it got to where it is.
assbot: Logged on 06-10-2015 20:54:27; jurov: re:mempool, interesting that stan found out txen are never actually freed (see last S.NSA report)
ascii_field: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-10-2015#1293105 << i would like to see some of the folks here independently confirm this discovery. ☝︎
ascii_field: ^ in case anyone did not understand that 'voice command' is asinine ☟︎
BingoBoingo: Especially never freed if never mined, because malleable got the other conf'd first
jurov: re:mempool, interesting that stan found out txen are never actually freed (see last S.NSA report) ☟︎
BingoBoingo: So malleability thing going now, excepting retards that do the 0-conf depend on txid... pretty much a mempool bloater ☟︎
