asciilifeform: aha -- interestingly, ~90% of a freshly dead mouse, or man, is 'alive'
mircea_popescu: "where can i find a guy who is safe to work in a datacenter ?" "where 1% of the 1% gather", doublespoken as "for 100k a year".
mircea_popescu: thishappens sometimes even in 10% occupied real estate cases.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: HOUSES have ~100% occupation, where i live.
mircea_popescu: i dunno there exista a place inthis world with 90% occupation. maybe beijing.
asciilifeform: but also, as i learned experimentally, one that doesn't create 'work' for the owner. for instance, i went to a great many folx who were letting out houses, and they wouldn't hear of 'install dishwasher', even when offered 100% of the (not especially frightening) cost of this mod.
asciilifeform: Framedragger: 99+% of the malware samples i have ever laid hands on, were complete snoar
ben_vulpes: more specifically, "assuming one wants a car shop for purely emotional and recreational reasons, how to determine what to pay for it?" "calculate hardware liquidation price, discount four years of cashflow declining by 10-30% a year to today, and offer a dime over that" ☟︎
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-18#1629015 << odds are it couldn't be re-done in a current fab, the vast majority of current fab constraints go towards avoiding echos and other self-crits the design may impose upon itself. as the engineers at the time didn't labour under the same constraints, and they're cutting out way more than 99% of the theoretical design space, the odds their work product would work in 14nm process are ze ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i know that out of the past 1mn i traded, 0% was on an exchange.
mircea_popescu: eh, "nearly 20 exchanges", wut. "exchange" idiots have managed to trade the 2012 situation, where they had gone from 0 to almost 50% of bitcoin trading for a slow and agonizing death. i'd be surprised if all of them (which within 90% is the first two) actually cover 10% of bitcoin for fiat trade.
a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 13:13 asciilifeform: btw pete_dushenski, 'Even with the pill, that forsaken shaman of working woman bondage, the effectiveness is only ~90%.' << this is a lulzy stat, because it lumps in not only user error but outright sabotage
pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-17#1628688 << lulzy, yes, but also besides the point! point is magnitude of consequence. duh. even 2% chance nuts imo. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-03-17 12:37 mircea_popescu: 99% of sacral fractures are because woman fell flat on her ass like idiot instead of falling on side like nature hardened body to do.
deedbot: http://qntra.net/2017/03/bitcoin-mining-difficult-goes-up-3-24-in-newest-adjustment/ << Qntra - Bitcoin Mining Difficult Goes Up ~3.24% In Newest Adjustment
mircea_popescu: yeah because it provides mutual reinforcement. this is like saying "deodorant is not 100% stinkproof". dude... what ?!
asciilifeform: it's ~100% if it actually goes down the gullet everyday.
mircea_popescu: that's ridiculous. pill is 100% wtf. even condoms are 99.x if you're not fucking retarded.

mircea_popescu: machinery utilization usually around 60%.
mircea_popescu: 99% of sacral fractures are because woman fell flat on her ass like idiot instead of falling on side like nature hardened body to do. ☟︎☟︎
BU_lulz: just the fact that their was a bug in their protocol that brought down 90% of their nodes
danielpbarron: a repented whore would be ahead of 99.9999% of the world that's for sure
trinque: anyhow the 2% in there about "you will have to edit your schema" sure
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 90% of the retardation of trb is that objects live in heap and are all part of a massive ball of yarn, linked to one another

asciilifeform: 100% of ships have kingstons.
a111: Logged on 2015-07-19 22:04 mod6: <+phf> ben_vulpes: because makefile.unix expects them, (search for obj/nogui/%.o: %.cpp, etc.) << ben_vulpes yeah this stuff
pete_dushenski: open q : anyone tried this (or other) intel me 'cleaner' ? https://github.com/corna/me_cleaner/wiki/How-does-it-work%3F ☟︎

diana_coman: 99.93% lulz basically, quite
mircea_popescu: i guess it's technically just 99.93% huh.
mircea_popescu: Framedragger the mystery of the black box that manages to require 59kb to store 8 x 4byte directories, ie a whooping 99.99% wastage....
a111: Logged on 2017-02-27 12:10 mircea_popescu: dude, they fucking gutted them. olympus agreed to pay the usg ~70 billion yen in fines, and install obama's children as an "independent outside monitor". whole corp market cap being you know, 1.3trn or some shit. who the fuck pays 5% of the market cap as a fine already, what is this, Совет Экономической Взаимопомощи ?
mircea_popescu: they will lose random single digit % of mailings inexplicably impredictably and irrecoverably.
asciilifeform: picture this, mircea_popescu , 100% of d00d's income comes from pentagon, and he won't answer a .mil mail.
mircea_popescu: dude... 10k. a 1% of a real estate deal gone south. who cares.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-03-10#1624496 << experimentally this is almost never above 50% ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-03-10 18:24 Framedragger: while at it, and i'm guessing it's in the logs.., i wonder when was the last time some tried to come up with an approximation what the costs to get to >50% network hashing power would be
a111: Logged on 2017-03-10 18:01 asciilifeform: trinque: i've found that 'kill', which syncs the db, followed by kill -9, which nukes shitoshi's pointless wait idiocy, worx 100%.
Framedragger: while at it, and i'm guessing it's in the logs.., i wonder when was the last time some tried to come up with an approximation what the costs to get to >50% network hashing power would be ☟︎
Framedragger: yeah, makes sense to me (on average, current likelihood of particular 32 bit entry being populated is ~ < 6%)
asciilifeform: trinque: i've found that 'kill', which syncs the db, followed by kill -9, which nukes shitoshi's pointless wait idiocy, worx 100%. ☟︎
Framedragger: so the 'matching' (index lookup) is the 99% here, right?
asciilifeform: let's put down in the log, what exactly ye olde bdb does, that eats 99+% of trb's wall clock:
a111: 48 results for "from:phf \"where's\"", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=from%3Aphf%20%22where%27s%22
mircea_popescu: well what other bots ? lobbes ' is older than deedbot iirc. you got 100% of bots made after release, can't complain.
asciilifeform: fwiw asciilifeform was 100% 'socially ept' before moved to monkeystan.
mircea_popescu: 99.9x% of everything is done by people who have been here since founding. tis a little worrysome.
mircea_popescu: and all this is not to detriment the samurai. the folks went, at night, disguised, and boarded boats (of the tiny fleet) and massacred men and withdrew. they cut down early scouting parties by the bushel. they did more fighting than in any other engagement. it just so happens that all their hard work accounted for less than 1% of the enemy ; and the tornado killed 80%.
mircea_popescu: "advertising", not mechanical engineer. because bridges actually collapse whereas all "campaigns" can be "a success" even with <10% ROI
phf: because otherwise you're getting your network over microwave relays, and your electric has 70% uptime
phf: i did a bed&breakfast which is my preferred approach, the room was baseline 2200rs/night, for 35 days, with 20% discount, worked out to about $950
mircea_popescu: hardly worth 0.1% of the budget. "cyberwarfare" hurr durr.
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=%22%27P%27%22 << stretches back... A YEAR.

asciilifeform: (whether succeeds will depend 100% on who the thing ends up connecting to on boot )
mircea_popescu: well your blk0036 would be full, mine's about 90% full
asciilifeform: it melts my brain, that this is apparently a backwater subfield, whereas it really ought to be ~100% of cryptology
mircea_popescu: 100% dead souls bidnis.
thestringpuller: snapchat surges 44% and they call facebook a bubble. for anyone calling for baby boomers to be sent to gitmo, I'd rather send the millennials first.
mircea_popescu: http://www.qsl.net/k/k0ff//old%20files/1C%20Working%20Copy/yyy/Cyclotron/TR%2030%20Cyclotron.htm << therer's something for alf
asciilifeform: in other lulz, http://www.qsl.net/k/k0ff//old%20files/1C%20Working%20Copy/yyy/
asciilifeform: 'all you need is a miniature black hole and some duct tape! otherwise, 100% solid physics!1111'
asciilifeform: but yes, this is one way to pay a % of something that cannot be cut.
asciilifeform: but, upstack, conundrum is, if some of the oldtx depend on prevblock in a way that is known immediately when said block was mined -- it gives a head start to plagiarists ( per earlier observation -- folx who take a freshly-mined block and try to make ~replacement~ for it with higher PoW.) but if they are ~not~ immediately known, and depend in any way on waltzeable Z, then 'haha i'll waltz until it falls in my 10%'.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the cure, i realized, is that ~some~ of the oldtx selected by Z must depend on value of prev block, so as to prevent waltzing of Z 'until all i need is the 10% i'm fraudulently storing instead of the 100%' .
asciilifeform: ~100% of asciilifeform's line of thought re 'trbi', from this, to the casks thing, etc., was only 'how to plug the leaks'
a111: 12 results for "martian bank", http://btcbase.org/log-search?q=martian%20bank
asciilifeform: actually this is a mega-snoar, looks like the makers used 100% western toolchain, even macrocells ☟︎
shinohai: BingoBoingo: I'm trying but I get 90% "Bigger" tit blocks
mircea_popescu: to briefly revisit http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-28#1619936 : idiotcy like spending a fraction of this "technological unit of account" is currently punished by high relative fees like the case of the http://btcbase.org/log/2017-02-27#1619097 "oh noes i tried to pay 25 bux, ended up charged 6%". ☝︎☝︎
asciilifeform: i have 0 fondness for the mempool, it is 99% rubbish, and uniquely retarded means of accomplishing what it was meant to accomplish
mircea_popescu: (pro tip : 90% of design work must be spent in the above loop.)
asciilifeform: he can self-fill a %.
mircea_popescu: i must ensure i get 1k filled casks for it ; but if nodes can return casks at any time, i will ALWAYS have a % of casks returned too late.
mircea_popescu: think, you push out 1k casks, statistically 5% will be returned > 5 times etc.
mircea_popescu: that's about 2% of the federal budget, ie barely a ripple.
asciilifeform: scheme pictured above does suffer from the 'no canned tx' headache. but it does solve the 'miner eats 100% of cake, the rest -- do laundry' thing.
mircea_popescu: they're markets alright. the fact that a block subsidy covers 80% or so of the value of a block is the dispositive factor ; and it disposes.
asciilifeform: incidentally it'd also test trinque's 'miners out in the open' thing. miner who comes out of the curtains, could collect 100% of the fee, rather than what relays left behind
trinque: why am I relaying txn to 99% of people who aren't going to do a damned thing with it
asciilifeform: theoretically you ~could~ have a leaktight hose where hop1 takes a % of a 'node and miner fee' preallocated by tx author; hop2 takes ~his own~ % of what hop1 left on the table; and so forth. but the requisite mathematical device for protocolically encumbering a tx is afaik undiscovered.
a111: Logged on 2017-02-27 20:03 asciilifeform: if you let ANYONE, under ANY circumstances, appropriate some of the value of a tx without the consent of its original author, you create a sybil-feeder, where the last hop (i.e. the miner) can simply eat 100% by simulating the passage of the tx through 1,000,001 hops of fictional nodes.

mircea_popescu lolz, the glock is 65% of the market. holy shit this angloworld loves plastics.
trinque: or is my node meant to lift "0.0000001%" the weight with all the other good socialists
asciilifeform: (even if you limit the total node feed to some small constant, the miner can ~still~ take ~100% of it, this way)
asciilifeform: if you let ANYONE, under ANY circumstances, appropriate some of the value of a tx without the consent of its original author, you create a sybil-feeder, where the last hop (i.e. the miner) can simply eat 100% by simulating the passage of the tx through 1,000,001 hops of fictional nodes. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: yeah the 20% figure is more of a sort of "ideal case" ; it can climb to 50% or more like that ^
