trinque: so far it's a single page; though this marketplace will likely call for a db
trinque: correct; haven't done that yet
assbot: Let's dig a little deeper into this entire deflation "problem" on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... ( http://bit.ly/1KUTdAo )
trinque: yeah, that doesn't sound too hard
mircea_popescu: trinque listen, would you consider creating a special deed template, which if satisfied gets taken to amarketplace listing sort-of like otc ? searchable is the important part.
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: what do you mean by this? "he can "win" 315 mn, but he sure as fuck may not turn that into 1mn turkeys."
mircea_popescu: however! it occurs to me this actually would work splendidly with deeds.
mircea_popescu: punkman this approach is fundamentally at odds with the "lord over a domain" concept of software development prevalent here.
mircea_popescu: it's more work to be a us strip club customer than to work there.
punkman: mircea_popescu: sure, but can't sysadmin the box it lives on (and don't want to fight ddos other than making application cache better and whatnot)
mircea_popescu: seriously, at that level of service they should be paying you to even go.
mircea_popescu: the notion that you'd take as much as 500 bucks to a us strip club...
mircea_popescu: he can "win" 315 mn, but he sure as fuck may not turn that into 1mn turkeys.
mircea_popescu: whereas this is not "how the world works"
mircea_popescu: i can readily believe that most of the problem was, jack fully expected to be able to BUY THINGS FOR HIS MONEY.
mircea_popescu: ag3nt_zer0 to my eyes this is more a failure of western society than of whittaker himself.
ag3nt_zer0: "Jack Whittaker won $315 million and ten years later, his daughter and granddaughter had both died of drug overdoses, his wife divorced him, and once while in a strip club, he was drugged and robbed of $545,000 in cash"
mircea_popescu: punkman this dawned on me presently. ouch.
mircea_popescu: moreover, something like this might actually be a perfect solution for my marketplace idea too. i wanna buy all sorts of things like 3d models etc.
punkman: mircea_popescu: orphaned is not the right word there, consider that if the last two patches in your V set create two branches, you can't choose a branch. V will try to apply both and doesn't check filehashes during the patching process.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1264067 << it occurs to me that if we're going to do this, we might as well do it on assbot otc. ☝︎
BingoBoingo: https://archive.is/P4wMn << the butthurt
mircea_popescu: but more of a fleamarket thing than an electronics supply shop thing
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 17:35:40; asciilifeform: has anyone here ever actually managed to buy, something other than coin or fiat, there /
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 17:17:54; asciilifeform: i was not able to find how to enforce level stepping in it.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1264041 << it's open source right ? that means people can come later and fix it so it works as it should, right ? ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 17:05:49; asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: btw i find it interesting that nobody has yet noticed that 1) broken chains 2) orphaned subchains of any length whatsoever --- do not work
mircea_popescu: use shitass cheapo "businessman" 8 pt thin sans, you're asking to be fucked.
mircea_popescu: the one point nobody seems to have noticed re that : use mp style fonts (14 point bold) you won't have a problem.
punkman: I think they had published enough code then and they had some stupid application for direct buyers
mircea_popescu: punkman at the time you cou;dn't have.
thestringpuller: http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-venture-capital/ << oh look at that.
punkman: should have generated ETH address to put in contract
thestringpuller: "Fellow miners, Some of you receive emails and phone calls from developers. I am not big enough to get that treatment." << LOL. And this is why you side with BIP-101
mircea_popescu: so wait, what happened here is i just profited 3 btc off this guy's backup failure ?! ☟︎
assbot: Bitcoin Transaction 2d1ed3f47a6ec0194d8855eec37c252506203ef7d6f5643bba17f7c244a45b00 ... ( http://bit.ly/1NWBhHu )
mircea_popescu: ah, that. he never fulfilled his obligations under it iirc.
mircea_popescu: punkman where's that clause from ?
punkman: mircea_popescu: just curious if this clause "and that ETH trades on a reputable exchange in total value of at least 100 BTC prior to the date of delivery" would be fulfilled by Poloniex, Kraken or any other exchange listed at http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/#markets
mircea_popescu: the moment you go to write "field"+number you should fucking realise YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG.
mircea_popescu is still raging over the db thing. who the fuck does this. who the fuck makes labels for items in a database WITH THEIR OWN BAKED IN INDEXES!
anton_osika: And again, my physical embodiment is openly registered, if you are in the neighbourhood mircea_popescu. And I might not be as dumb as it seems from the backup policies ..
anton_osika: So long. Thanks for the voice until I can become friends with phunctor. ☟︎
anton_osika: antonosika has to sign a document stating the location of delivery. He however involuntarily lost his hands. So he can't sign documents anymore.
mircea_popescu: these are the unfortunate results downstream of insufficient five year olds being raped to death and discarded in a ditch.
thestringpuller: Yea Planeshift has a lot of quirks like that.
mircea_popescu: and is not limited to the db. here, have a magic number in code, because THAT IS WHAT CODE IS FOR!11
mircea_popescu: the same thing is observed not just here, but THROUGHOUT
mircea_popescu: field1, field2 and who the fuck was responsible with raping these idiots as 5yo and discarding the bloodied remains in a ditch did a horrible job
mircea_popescu: this is how you use databases now, by counting the fucking fileds.
mircea_popescu: BECAUSE IT IS A RULE OF THE UNIVERSE THAT ALL THINGS HAVE 5 REPLIES!!1
mircea_popescu: these fucking idiots. so eulora is based on modifying work by others. those others have done the following thing : the dialogue of a npc is contained in a table. that table has fields. those fields are "reply 1" "reply 2" and so up to 5. why to 5 ?
anton_osika: punkman: Thanks for the concern about fingerprint. The issue is this: http://pastebin.com/NbPrZS9A
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 16:39:54; ben_vulpes: what are best practices with the mailing list again?
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1263972 << add to that, "never use known file extensions". ☝︎☟︎
anton_osika: Well ownership is nothing physical but the underlying. What arguably makes land different is that one can lets ones physical embodiment be placed on the land, and this can be recognised / unchallenged by others
anton_osika: Well I believe mircea_popescu would honor a contract where the couterparty has no competition at identifying himself. It would be pleasant to extend the notion of trust to identity in the physical domain however.
punkman: register with new fingerprint, nobody knew the old one anyway
anton_osika: My situation as of now is that there is nothing to strictly verify a former fingerprint. However I am the unique holder of the name AntonOsika in Sweden, publicly registered with physical address, so you if you are passing by please find me and I would provide generous housing.
anton_osika: mircea_popescu: I liked your piece on formalised identity based trust system (WoT). Are there any attempts at extending it to our physical existances such as property?
mircea_popescu: im not even talking one exceptionally well trained gf. that won't cut it.
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 16:14:41; kakobrekla: but, no time.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1263966 << the only solutions is slavegirls. ☝︎
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 16:07:45; asciilifeform: this means that at present time there is EXACTLY ONE reliable public therealbitcoin node - zoolag.
punkman: shinohai, whole commit is peppered with credentials to various systems
shinohai: Als, the fail is strong in this one:
shinohai: I suppose the same way you would ask any gentleman to dinner.
anton_osika: shinohai: Excellent. Could you also advice me on how to successfully invite mircea_popescu for dinner at my home in Stockholm?
punkman punkman wants to hear more about defending against bitrot
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1263952 << understand, there's no hardware solution to this problem. you may make the probability less, but the only path to certainty is checking. ☝︎☟︎
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 15:57:46; asciilifeform: (undetectable bit rot is MUCH WORSE than the idling it does right now)
anton_osika: I do have ultimate respect for the WoT. Hence I want to have a valid keypair for communicating with goodfellas here.
punkman: wants to test new key perhaps?
anton_osika: shinohai: Thank you for the tip.
anton_osika: The hands or the two files?
shinohai: Use your feet to pull the trigger on the shotgun.
mircea_popescu: how are these two related ?
punkman: test backups next time ;)
anton_osika: I got my hands cut off so I cannot make signatures; laptop stolen and broken backup. Got any tips for me?
assbot: Logged on 06-09-2015 12:25:05; ben_vulpes: ;;later tell vextor phuctor has had mains plugs pulled on it several times recenty, and alf's attitude (i believe) is that the thing shoudn't run if its going to have its memory ripped out every time it warms up. remember, it keeps the running product in memory. mircea_popescu's attitude is that "software should be less friable than the hardware upon which it runs". asciilifeform is trying to find the sh
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=06-09-2015#1263914 << well, less is probably a bridge to far. equally might also be. but i do maintain software can't be MUCH MORE friable than the hardware upon it runs. and i dun think alf disagrees with that much either. ☝︎
mircea_popescu: i'm a perfectly illiterate chinese scholar, for that matter.
mircea_popescu wasn't there, hasn't seen, everyone on internet ~= dog.
ag3nt_zer0: mircea_popescu: if frithjof schuon is illiterate then I must be less than a dog
mircea_popescu: all it can conceivably achieve is form minor dismissals in the minds here that hadn't prior bothered to consider
mircea_popescu: anyway, fwiw, i don't readily see a way to construct this "existentialism is fail because its idea of reality precludes itself" into meaningful criticism.
ag3nt_zer0: my entire reason for posting links to this material is that I find it hard to dismiss - hoping that some of the minds in here might check out the longforms and tell me what they think...
mircea_popescu: quoting properly is more complicated than it seems.
mircea_popescu: but the behaviour would seem to indicate ~you~ think he's easily dismissed.
mircea_popescu: up to you :)
ag3nt_zer0: hmmm maybe I would do better to not post a quote out of context
mircea_popescu: he doesn't seem aware of this.
mircea_popescu: this means you can not use symbols such as "contradiction" without havind properly defined an existentialism.contradiction constructor in the very group.
mircea_popescu: what this means in easily digestible terms among software people is that existentialism is a class.
mircea_popescu: for the following reason : existentialism is the first (and the most logically successful) of the "postmodernisms", taken eventually to their extreme lolzitude by lacan and his unselfaware progeny in the us ("radical feminists" and whatnot).
ag3nt_zer0: he's right up there with evola and guenon
ag3nt_zer0: from my perspective, which may or may not matter, he doesn't seem to be one to be lightly dismissed
mircea_popescu: but the quote you presented disqualifies him from discussing sartre.
mircea_popescu: well he totally missed it and doesn't even have the excuse of not speaking the language.
mircea_popescu: who said the thing you quoted ?
