mircea_popescu: you'll get more women in
tech by making
tech more like birthing class.
punkman: yeah need more fun
things
to do instead of programming
punkman: "The one rule
they have adhered
to
throughout
the Django Girls process is
to "always go
the extra mile" and
the details of
the workshops show
this,
they said.
The room is decorated with flowers and balloons, rather
than being a "boring classroom" and
they do fun
things like cupcake
tasting or yoga during
the day. "
punkman: mircea_popescu:
trinque you old enough
to remember when neobee
took over cypruss or notrly ? << I remember
their derpy
tv ads, unfortunately couldn't find
them recently, wanted
to show a friend
BingoBoingo: I'm at 367850 but apparently
there is a 367857 floating around somewhere?
trinque: refreshing break from
the endless horse-shit elsewhere
cazalla: but considering ddos and my return
to full
time employment, not a bad month
cazalla: nope, i
think
that is like 15k maybe
hanbot wonders if asciilifeform has also secretly already written
the match
trick solution
mircea_popescu: for
they ion
the know : i got a pile of specialty chocolates here, and i will win
the fight!
mircea_popescu: they should have gasenwagen'd you when
they had
the chance, eh ?
mircea_popescu: it's no emergency really, if its in by
the next halving it's soon enough.
mircea_popescu: in fact it may actually be more productive for nearby miner
to mine based off our nodes
than
the stupid shit
the chinese do currenty
mircea_popescu: in any case : reasonable bw, fee paying no bs
txn is a very hard
to beat prop, ev wise.
assbot: Stupid Patent of
the Month:
Trolls Go After Sex
Toy Manufacturers | Electronic Frontier Foundation ... (

mircea_popescu: heck, last month i was a good chunk of coinbase
too, because of
that buysellads failed experiment.
mircea_popescu: im currently about 1/3
the reason bitpay even stays in business, fwiw (not much).
mircea_popescu: for instance : i will be putting all my
txn out
through my own nodes, once
this exists.
mircea_popescu: suppose we're in
the park. "throw
the crumbs over
there" "but
the birds won't see
them" "doesn't matter, we're
the only
things
that matter here" "but we don't cluck"
☟︎ mircea_popescu: us maniacs are really all
that matters, in
the grander scheme of
things.
mircea_popescu: because, as
they say in omaha, "you're smart and i'm right, you'll figure it out"
mircea_popescu: it leads
to
the following game
theoretical situation : want your node
to be well connected ? simply
tell IT your decent fee paying
txn.
mircea_popescu: well what i was
thinking was
the converse (shuttering
those who fail
to provide acceptable
txn, in sufficient proportion)
mircea_popescu: i
think
this is one of
those situation where suboptimal wins. let us "lose", i'll
take
the loss.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform and not fucking all comers costs
the female,
too.
mircea_popescu: moreover, random is what spwaned forth
the incredible complexity of life.
mircea_popescu: (original design was
to simply shutter all connecting peers
that fail
to provide good $$$
txn, in some sort of %)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: im
too lazy
to dig
through
the logs. but yes, your
thing's
the winner.
assbot: Logged on 31-07-2015 17:27:00; mircea_popescu: ascii_field again : we have a pool of X bytes.
tx are allowed in only if
they pay more
than average fore
that x.
mircea_popescu: course earlier
today was like
the 4th restatement, and i am not known for improved expression over
time.
mircea_popescu: (contrary
to what superficial students of history may surmise, i did mean
the background ones)
alpalp: Nope, he had some inside leak on gox and besides
that been lol
mircea_popescu: alpalp i don't
think b-a was ever
too impressed with
the guy.
ben_vulpes: phf: we're drinking and
talking about how
to persist data appropriately in cl proggies as we speak
alpalp: Think I saw something with loltwobitidiot
today on
twitter where someone destroyed him in here
phf: ben_vulpes: your discussion with
trinque is apropos. naggum had a
technique described in one of his emails, where he would load/unload clos objects' data
transparently on demand. i want
to experiment with
that as far as block index
mircea_popescu: i guess
they served him with a stay put order a year ago
shinohai: I would have
thought he would already have been waaaaaaaaaaay away
phf: ben_vulpes: since last
time i only added blkindex.dat reader
phf: i mostly need
to make sure my developers get
the right idea
shinohai: That's all
the altcoin world is
cazalla: mircea_popescu, no, i
think someone else just created a knock off
to skim a little more cream off
the
top ..
https://www.ethercoin.cc/ (regged august last year)
that is
the coin pete linked anyway, not legit scam eth
shinohai: Why yes,
that is
the one.
That means I am not quite as inebriated as I
thought.
