time you've mentioned
the movie so is it a personal fav?

takes a fuckton of calories of oil
to stamp a plastic card indeed
HeySteve: Krugman moaned about
the energy costs
too, not sure who came up with
this nonsense originally but
that was at least a year ago
HeySteve: I wonder how much energy it
takes
to produce a credit card
BingoBoingo: HeySteve: Or Visa employing all
those call center HamPlanets
HeySteve: goddamn retards, did
they factor in
the energy cost of all
the VISA execs driving
to and from work, just for starters?
BingoBoingo: Would also be nice if I could derp some authentication onto
the electrum service.
shinohai: That is what I was
thinking, since you can connect only
to a specific server
BingoBoingo this fall wants
to be able
to run a Foundation bitcoin release powering an electrum server with 200-500 connections.
shinohai: Lol I probably would have gave up on
that project for a while if you hadn't mentioned it.
BingoBoingo: Even wikipedos save all historical states on
those pages
BingoBoingo: Fucking electrum-server github doesn't have any releases or milestones
tagged
shinohai: I need
to hop over

their chan and
try
to catch someone online I guess.
shinohai: I haven't yet BingoBoingo but have
the same issue :/
BingoBoingo: shinohai jurov: Either of you find
the set of electrum-server bitcoind patches? I'm running into some serious memory hole here.

to
the keyboard, minds

the altar of
technology.

the well runs dry before it corrodes
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: what is
the casing of an oil well made of?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform would love
to sleep forever, i would like
to program in lisp all day
BingoBoingo: ben_vulpes: Do you really need
those
things? Or do you merely want
them?
ben_vulpes: we'll be writing swift and javascript's successors until linus goes insane while still at
the helm
BingoBoingo: Seriously we need
to storm an intel fab/fap and start pumping out Z80++/MIPS/and Scheme79 chips
ben_vulpes: but i'm a reluctant frontend guy
to begin with.
ben_vulpes: i'm uninterested in anything new
that
touches
the dom
trinque: emscripten has an API
to poke
the DOM I
think
trinque: ben_vulpes: as I understand it,
this is like... emscripten bytecode
ben_vulpes: di i still have
to fuck with
the dom in webasm?
trinque: haven't found anything
that looked like a good decision
trinque: I've looked around for a common lisp on llvm, as
that's what farts into webasm
trinque: ben_vulpes:
that's what I would like
ben_vulpes: sharp lisper might be able
to sell software in
that space.
funkenstein_: well if
TX channels do break, it is eventually
the resonsibility of
the spender
to get
the
TX
to a pool - using external channel
ben_vulpes: (because "'we'll iterate on it, instead of asking
the engineers")
trinque: hopefully
this webassembly
thing
takes some pain out, but I'm sure it'll be a while on
that
ben_vulpes: (to deliver a pair of socks
that nobody asked for)
ben_vulpes: and i say
that as a guy who duct
tapes jet fighters
to submarines
ben_vulpes: it just
takes
the "duct
tape
the jet fighter
to
the submarine" mindset
to a revolting degree
trinque: so I'm not about
to start preferring a particular flavor of shit
trinque: and in
this case
there's a browser underneath
ben_vulpes: i'm starting
to wonder of 'clojure all
the
things' isn't a poettering-smell
ben_vulpes: good god man
there are so many layers in
that
thing
BingoBoingo: <funkenstein_> like, ddosed << No, "Stress
Tested" which means showing how great present anti-spam limit is because spammers
trinque: wanted
to know if
the native
thing would eat clojurescript, in case I end up having
to use it
trinque: ben_vulpes: yeah you can use reagent in
this manner
funkenstein_: blockchain getting hammered
today, what is going on?

the chumps get chumped.

the appropriate word? :P

think it is about
to dunk on a regulation basket
BingoBoingo: <HeySteve> el confedejito << Indeed. Should have
taken Mexico First

the pony
track jsut
to cycle
the games
they bleed
through, because
these colors don't run
http://qntra.net/qntra.jpg mats: would sure like
to meet
these folks at a poker
table
mats: like its normal
to run a half billion dollar net loss in a low margin low moat industry
☟︎ mats: am still amused by folks saying 'well it would be weird if uber wasn't spending
tons
to expand' after seeing
term sheet
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> embrace
the surveillance state << I may or may not have around 2009 driven a VIP across county and or state lines because
they did not want
their
travel recorded.
ben_vulpes: i'm going
to buy a bunch of goddamn
trucks.
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> it's a hazard of
the dude's occupation. << No, it is a Hazzard, for a certain sort of Duke
mats: oh right, we can decentralize
the video feed
too
HeySteve: driver will get bad rep after first abduction, so doubt he'll make it
to a dozen unless he changes nick and car
mats: and nobody will care after a dozen women disappear after
their last known position was inside one of your cars
HeySteve: ok but
the big picture here is it'll give all
the regulatory
types a fit
ben_vulpes: it's a hazard of
the dude's occupation.
ben_vulpes: no, i'm just going
to put everyone involved with
the piloting of vehicles out of work
HeySteve: eh, sounds like a lot of unecessary paperwork
to me
mats: you gonna decentralize vehicle inspections, background checks, accounting, driver recruitment, commercial insurance,
too?
BingoBoingo: Nah, insurance should be cheap. Getting insurance
though should be hard
through other means.
ben_vulpes: i'm speshul
tho. i'm cool and i get
to drive my car as much as i want :P
ben_vulpes: stop burning all
the fucking oil
to get your dumb asses around!
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: i dream of a world where
the insurance
to drive your own ass around is prohibitive for all but
the ultra-rich

to be able
to put 5 million down on a fleet of robot cars and wreck an industry or 5
HeySteve: so app
that handles escrow of fare, oracle uses GPS
to verify destination was reached within a certain
time,

mats: deleted
the app after i finished my free ride
mats: driver insisted i sit in front, fist bump him, and
talk
the whole
trip
☟︎ HeySteve: Christine Walters, Johburg’s mayoral committee member for
transport: "The city would like a South African flavour of black economic empowerment with Uber." -
this sort of brain damage has
taken over pretty much everything here
HeySteve: SA can be added
to
the list, lots of protests against Uber here. was wondering if
there's a way
to decentralise it...
HeySteve: not
that I've used
their service but I've been reading about all
the pushback Uber is getting around
the world
