<<< aaaahahahaha.

<punkman> asciilifeform: there are more "server ARM" things coming out...
<< you really want like, 64 shitty cores on the workstation instead of 4x x86?

<+mircea_popescu> in other news, chick on okcupid : "porque no me escribis en castellano
<< they say castellano in peru too, but if i'm not mistaken this is not universal in south america?
pete_dushenski: "Then in Davos I joined people like Kevin Spacey, and Jimmy Wales (the founder of Wikipedia) on a panel talking about cyber-security. The general sense in the room is that a distributed, encrypted database like the blockchain could be key to creating a more secure computing environment and a more secure world."
<< now i get why reporters call ~me~ a "security expert", because motherfucking 60yo actors are sittin
mod6:
<+mircea_popescu> wait shouldn't shiva 2 be restated instead ?
<< this is probably a better. and its not even in the mirror at this point anyway.
mod6:
<+asciilifeform> we did it for the db locks fix
<< this is fair. would have to had to regrind everything after last march :/
mod6:
<+asciilifeform> i'd much prefer antimatter
<< this imho sets kindof an nasty precedent: just adding anitmatter patches, bloat for the tree. a hundred years from now there might be more anti-matter than matter patches!
mod6:
<+pete_dushenski> ver 99999 is fine by me
<< yeah, this is fine. but the fact that it doesn't do what it should do isn't. i'll pull the patch tomorrow.
mircea_popescu:
<pete_dushenski> mircea_popescu: it's sorta incredible that the fiatists who need infinite growth all want to cut their own throats with reduced consumption while tmsr~, who doesn't want anything to do with infinite growth, is buying and consuming like it's going out of style
<< actually, best estimate i can get puts TMSR GDP growth for 2015 somewhere around 450-500%. that's not 4.5-5%. it's not 45-50% either.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: assbot> Networking Equipment Designated Weapon System |
<< speaking of which, i fully expect the first usg-designed bitcoin miners to be designated exactly that.
pete_dushenski: mod6: in other news, i can't seem to get -setvernum to work either? or how can I tell that it worked?
<< hm. has anyone actually used 'version-strings' in praxis ? seems like several failed attempts now.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski> so unless bitbet is now drafting and seeding their own proposals...
<< this isn't even new.
pete_dushenski: "The three vehicles averaged 1.5% lower mileage with E10, 2.2% lower mileage with E20, 5.1% lower mileage with E30"
<< from some study by the american coalition for ethanol.
mircea_popescu: "The DC neglected to turn the thing back on after SSD installation"
<<< o.O
mircea_popescu: assbot> California Environmentalists Fight To Save Endangered Nuclear Plant
<<< had to dbl take. then lulz floweth
mod6:
<+mircea_popescu> so in this sense mod6 it has my imprimatur that bothering to grok it isn't a waste of your finite time.
<< yeah, agreed, Sir.
mircea_popescu: ascii_rear> can we at least have the option of loading from local dir instead of www ?
<<< now that is a very good idea.
mircea_popescu: ascii_rear> but eventually we ought to be able to do spiffy things like writing my memory usage grapher ~entirely in shiva~, etc
<< quite. once this is fully functional debugging in trb can not be matched, period. by anyone, anywhere, doing anything.
mod6:
<+shinohai> ok mod6 test completed, did not have to set set the perl option before building
<< ok good deal, i assume that the PERL_MM_OPT thing is an evironment deal.
mod6:
<+ascii_rear> mod6: see anything that doesn't make sense ?
<< not yet. was just poking through how you load this thing up (in src/shiva.h|.cpp) - also looking at how to define more operations

<asciilifeform> cd laughs at magnetic field, at electrostatic discharge, has nothing that self-oxidates if in inert atmosphere.
<< Been doing cleaning and have taken to playing pressed cd's that by many rights out not be playing. (not a single cd-r from mess has played yet, including a few 5+ year old "archival" turds)
mod6:
<+ben_vulpes> mod6: do you expect me to have korsgaard's key in my personal keyring when running build-bitcoind-V99996K.sh?
<< yup, this is how it works if we want to verify the buildroot package cryptographically.
mod6:
<+mircea_popescu>
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-01-2016#1390077 << this is a bad idea inasmuch as it leaves my build process stranded, so i'll be stuck forever using current v and i suppose forever pressing 9996 then ?
<< yeah, i read your comments earlier on this. part of "battle-ready" to me means not only that it has lordship blessing, but it doesn't break any security paradigms that we m
☝︎ mod6:
<+danielpbarron> what needs to be changed? just the url to the .sh ? or are some of the steps different now?
<< yeah, i think the steps are going to be fine, other than the URL to the new script (when we finally get it deedbotted) and the name of the script.

<punkman> asciilifeform: there are more "server ARM" things coming out...
<< you really want like, 64 shitty cores on the workstation instead of 4x x86?
☟︎ mod6:
<+asciilifeform> why the hell not ?
<< because i tried to kinda sorta do this already... buildroot is hardcoded to download (rsync) all of its deps and stuff it needs from net. we'd have to "hack" our own buildroot.
mod6:
<+asciilifeform> in fact i think it ought to be abolished and replaced with pressed silver cd.
<< im not sure how to build this excatly. this is part of what we wanna talk about next week.
mod6:
<+ben_vulpes> mod6 and trinque as well
<< hacking the codebase?
<< I just build the statically linked bin with rotor via the build-bitcoind script that everyone uses.
