mats: asciilifeform: 'signify' does not appear
to link openssl either... am i missing something or wut?
mircea_popescu: best
thing ever. let
them have
the retard mass
that success brings in. socialism deserves its fruits
mircea_popescu: leaving probably r/buttcoin as
the schellign point, which honestly...
mircea_popescu: theymos
tried
to salvage reddit
through doing what he wouldn't do
to save bitcointalk
three years ago ;
this failed
to work, reddit-bitcoin shattered.
mircea_popescu: #bitcoin-assets weathered it fine.
the bitcoin foundation mailing list weathered it fine.
the old mailing list is practically dead for any useful purpose.
mircea_popescu: incidentally :
the only
thing
this faux controversy has actually shown, is
that
the antiquated model of governance inherited by
the power rangers from satoshi plainly does not work.
mircea_popescu: point was agreed
to before i
think. which is how
the discussion re what pgp implementation must be like got started.
☟︎ mats: 17:32:27 <+asciilifeform> ... <<
there are none. << i appreciate
the confirmation
mircea_popescu: yes, but
there's a difference between statistics and redditart say-so.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform which reminds me, apparently monero does just fine with
the oak. somehow.
fluffypony: so
the Redditards have
taken
to
telling me
that I don't support XT because it's in my interest for Bitcoin
to fail
fluffypony: I've been fairly vocal in denouncing -XT and
the whole way Hearn-ia and Gavin have been pushing
their agenda
fluffypony: mircea_popescu you want
to hear a funny story
mircea_popescu: certainly
the
two major groups
that stand
to win from harming bitcoin are govt shills and
the idiots
they cater
to.
mircea_popescu: if anyone's bored, here's a simple job :
take all reddit accounts > 1 year old
that are in favour of xt, count
the ones who weren't also active in some other historically failed fork attempt.
mircea_popescu: pretty amusing how on some basic demographics, all
the various groups doing various "better bitcoins" come out drastically in support of bitcoin-xt. it'd seem
the people who agree bitcoin needs "improvement" is 80%
the people who already agreed with
this, unsuccessfully.
assbot: Logged on 23-08-2015 21:19:55; mats: i haven't seen any python libraries
that enable
this behavior without shelling out
to
the binary (or maybe i'm retarded, i dunno)
mircea_popescu: historically, X never happened. I believe X will happen now, because I
think so.
mircea_popescu: I see
the current block size debate in similar fashion. It seems almost inevitable
that we will get bigger blocks (probably with XT) because
the alternatives will not work well enough, soon enough."
mircea_popescu: "Some
time back altcoins were
thought
to be potential challengers
to BTC. But as
time went on we realised
that BTC was never going
to be removed from
the
throne.
mats: i am very hesitant
to code sig verification in a standalone context but
this seems
to be
the best play here...
mats: i haven't seen any python libraries
that enable
this behavior without shelling out
to
the binary (or maybe i'm retarded, i dunno)
☟︎☟︎ davout: also required me
to import
the relevant public key into
the key ring
mircea_popescu: "public education" and "we should encourage more people
to get into high paying
tech jobs".
mats: welp,
time
to smash a keyboard out back
mircea_popescu: they assume it's ok
to "require networking" because it makes X
thing easier and "who would ever want
to run without networking"
davout: mats: prolly because it relies on you having a keyring
to which it associates
trust levels for private keys
mats: all
the libraries i've read require a private subkey
mats: this doesn't seem
to make any sense from a pure crypto standpoint
mats: gpg requires a private key
to do signature verification
mod6: still a ways
to go
there... or maybe a bet on QE4

mod6: the chick with 3 fingers
thinks its a good idea. and gavin says "hey, you can't do
that!"
to
the lion.
the lion says, "we WILL do
that."
mod6: the fox in
the red says "here's where we're going
to
tie you
to a chair and dunk you in
the river."
hanbot: <danielpbarron>
take it
the guy with
the weird glasses is gavin, and
the girl with
the breastplate is supposed
to be hanbot? << moar like scoopbot, by
the looks of
those hands.
danielpbarron: i don't know who
that is, but it looks like gavin's
twitter pic

mircea_popescu: ;;later

the discussion. "memory pages" is also irrelevant i nthe discussion. apparently it's not
that person's field either.

wyrdmantis:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=19-08-2015#1244364 asciilifeform can you explain me why
this is relevant? i person i know has
told me
that L2 chache is irrelevant because "the working set of memory pages veryfing ECDSA signatures is extremely small and
takes places also in L1” I don’t have counter-arguments with him because
this is not my field but… i
trust your opinion more. Also he says
that

thing?

mircea_popescu: "Among intelligent Communists
there is an underground legend
to
the effect
that although
the Russian government is obliged now
to deal in lying propaganda, frame-up
trials, and so forth, it is secretly recording
the
true facts and will publish
them at some future
time." << meta non-asshole stalinism!
pete_dushenski: then again,
they're not rothschilds so prolly doesn't much matter
assbot: Logged on 22-08-2015 19:13:28; mircea_popescu: ely almost entirely on expert opinion concerning
the quality of
the art,
that is
to say, is
the quality of
the art being examined of
the quality expected of a painting by
the artist—in
this case, Caravaggio.
mircea_popescu: ahahahah lol modigliani. "o you don't like pieface ?
