pete_dushenski: though apparently they recently purchase 'emulex' as well
pete_dushenski: "In a fifth floor office just off Zurich's main shopping street, researchers at UBS (UBSG.VX) are testing dozens of technologies to see what could make the world's biggest wealth manager more appealing as fortunes pass to the next generation."
pete_dushenski: gabriel_laddel just curious ? have you been to kr and cn as well ?
pete_dushenski: gabriel_laddel it looks effective to me. at least as much as any fuzzy rat puppet (in canada) telling kids not to trust strangers
BingoBoingo: Not as racis as dem abbos
BingoBoingo: davout: How much of what kind of CPU is monero taking as it syncs?
decimation: I think people's reaction to high population density is to treat humans as if they were robots
mircea_popescu: or as that chick in pride and prejudice points out, "sometimes it seems like wanting someone to stick his finger in your nose"
ascii_field: as is old boot
mircea_popescu: romanian expression of superlative chickdom being, "as fute-o si-n pizda"
mircea_popescu: ascii_field well inasmuch as that's what "produce milk, pull cart, turn millstone" means, you did.
mircea_popescu: i can see why, too. if there's no actual items involved there's much less risk to doing it all, as nobody can ever be shown definitively to have fucked up.
jurov: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-32895048 lol fifa brass detained, "But Fifa says it plans to go ahead with an election for president as planned."
mircea_popescu: i suspek it's mostly because i use "good pet" as a congratulatory term. as opposed to variations of "you motherfuckin' bitch you!" and so on.
asciilifeform: as far as i'm concerned, wh menu may or may not include flesh of virgins
jurov: no here it's same as pogo
asciilifeform: (the trick was, the scrip was available on the black market, in exchange for ordinary - or as they were called, 'wooden' - ruble.)
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=27-05-2015#1146155 << not one of those things is prime, for perfectly valid arithmetical reasons (see Apocalyptic's note about 641 and 6700417. and you can prove it, but i'm leaving it as an exercise for now) ☝︎
jurov: it's done by the same chumps as these routers
cazalla: fluffypony, garza "bought" it last year for 1 million.. to pay off in installments over 36 months.. but garza has no money left apparently.. so he leases it to bitcoinist, pockets the money and the real owner of the domain takes it back as garza late/failed to make payments leaving bitcoinist up shit creek
mircea_popescu: fluffypony it means the fountain of shit these people create as a byproduct of their metabolism.
mircea_popescu: and now he's stuck in a world where others may entertain his pretense (to "professionalism" or to "business-like" or whatever else), but a) only third worlders, and b) only for as far as they find it net positive.
mircea_popescu: the guy spent more than it was worth (in bitcoin treading for a pittance) to acquire a "valuable" domain, as if a domain name could ever be valuable.
cazalla: i figured him as autistic tbh
mircea_popescu: paltry attempts to make it stay relevant about as effectual as spitting in the wind.
mircea_popescu: thousands of bitcoin donated to a shitty foundation ? gone, as is the foundation.
mircea_popescu: here's the story of a simple country boy, one could say a cock-eyed optimist who got himself a number of pleabargained felonies after which the sun seemed to shine, and all his long held frustrations as to relevancy for business, intellectual prowess and whatnot seemed to realise! finally! oh, how this moment had been pined for.
assbot: Logged on 26-05-2015 23:45:41; williamdunne: "The UK government should apply the same regulation and identification requirements to bitcoin wallets as it does to bank accounts, Accenture has advised."
mircea_popescu: zero coin seems to me exactly designed as a lizard hitler back-up, "alt-bitcoin" bs.
mircea_popescu: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-05-2015#1145932 << the problem with finance isn't "that there exist numbers" but "that there exists unknowns". fixed inflation is not fundamentally different from zero inflation just as long as the inflation is known. which of the two is more convenient (and it's purely a matter of clerical convenience) reduces to a discussion of whether humanity is an ever-expanding cancer or a c ☝︎
decimation: dijkstra: "My conclusion is that it is becoming most urgent to stop to consider programming primarily as the minimization of a cost/performance ratio. We should recognise that already now programming is much more an intellectual challenge: the art of programming is the art of organising complexity, of mastering multitude and avoiding its bastard chaos as effectively as possible.
danielpbarron: although i burn most of mine reloading the same articles over and over again as i pull them up to link in forum posts and whatnot
williamdunne: "The UK government should apply the same regulation and identification requirements to bitcoin wallets as it does to bank accounts, Accenture has advised." ☟︎
mats: fun fact: there is a particular ACPI table in that you can put anywhere in a low range of memory during boot, and Windows will take the payload data, drop it as an EXE, and run it as SYSTEM. ☟︎
mats: this thing runs as SYSTEM by default, written in java, and the code was stolen some time ago
Adlai: wait, the f500 are treated by nasdaq as *investors*? ^_^
williamdunne: Which of course can go up or down as demand changes
Apocalyptic: ;;later tell mircea_popescu maybe i'm misunderstanding something simple but you could give such a factor for 0xffaaccddffaaccdd3c4b7ff83c4b7ff8 , it's a random 128 bit number constructed as the moduli in question, ( and 0x1000000000000000100000000 does not divide it)
Apocalyptic: myeah but this is in base 10 and you're using the fact that it's divisible by 11 which is 10^1+1 because you mirror only 1 digit-base here, it's exactly analogous to my " every N has 641 and 6700417 as prime factors" earlier claim since notice that 641*6700417 = 2^32 + 1, which corresponds to a 32-bit mirror window length
ascii_field: factor just as well on '486'.
ascii_field: now write down n as a diophantine equation
ascii_field: but as for mirrored moduli, we have'em all
ascii_field: which is to say, it so happens that all the mods which had bottom 64 bits be a mirror pair (as per my original mods-only litmus) had full shebang.
mircea_popescu: it's just intended as a catchall.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field but be this as it may, the "won't work" part is much more interesting. wjhy wouldn't the pre-salted keys not work ?
ascii_field: appears to follow same pattern as all of them - take each 64 bits, copy bottom 32 over top 32
ascii_field: the colourizer is dumb as brick
mircea_popescu: as to the symmetries : http://trilema.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/rsa-mystery-one.png for instance doesn't seem like it's 100% bit shifted
Apocalyptic: why is left as an exercice for the reader
Apocalyptic: ascii_field, another trivial thing that follows from the mirroring: every N has 641 and 6700417 as prime factors
jurov: "One such market, Intrade, had previously offered futures on events such as the capture of Osama bin Laden, the U.S. Presidential Election, and the bombing of Iran. As of March 10, 2013 though, all trading had been suspended on Intrade's website due to undisclosed financial irregularities."
asciilifeform: i do not look up to afghanistan as peak of human culture. but that's just imho.
mircea_popescu: to me, it stands, as what they said.
mircea_popescu: I am writing you this letter in anticipation of my upcoming sentencing. This is a challenging letter to write because, as one who faces punishment, I have a strong incentive to say anything I think might result in leniency. But I have endeavored to be honest and forthright throughout this process, and so I will be in this letter as well.
mircea_popescu: idem in the army (not that i went, but i can count as well as anyone)
mircea_popescu: it's insanely hard to translate, because as written it's nearly pure poetry.
mircea_popescu: she sounded a lot like you, amusingly. about as drunk.
cazalla: anyway just as my wife is, youare the exception to the rule so futile to compare
cazalla: may as well toss the kid in the bin at that point like a fucked up meal
cazalla: i never read much as half a cook book
Adlai: think of it (teaching her to cook) as an investment in your children's mother/teacher
mircea_popescu: neway copypaste dun despair man. as seinfeld rabi says, "often, in life, there are problems - and just as often, there are solutions"
copypaste: as i said
davout: an as far as i understand we need to have a static build first, which we don't
cazalla: where as i fought and won many fights
cazalla: but she acts as if she has 10 kids, not 1
cazalla: i didn't think i did either but my missus won't as much raise her voice without crying
cazalla: tbh i don't even know, i got duped by this conservation /pol/ shit just as i thought i was due to drop dead
mircea_popescu: eh you ever heard that "there's no such thing as frigid women, just unskilled men" ?
trinque: and of course the second of the two colors are also there to loot, but they dress it up as something constructive
mircea_popescu: decimation it's a mystery tho. france could also have good infrastructure. itdoes not. i doubt it's the "political" anything, they're about as equally retarded.
decimation: is this what passes as 'business' in new york?
asciilifeform: as a prospectus.
decimation: http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/philg/2015/05/25/u-s-versus-german-infrastructure-spending-and-results/ < "?Quality, Not Just Quantity, of Infrastructure Needs Attention? (Wall Street Journal, May 20, 2015) has some interesting data. The U.S. has spent, adjusted for deprecation, 52 percent of GDP on ?public capital stock? (infrastructure such as roads, bridges, train tracks, etc.) while the Germans have spent just 35 percent of GDP. What
decimation: my hypothesis (floating around here awhile) - nobody wants to read about soviet times because they will recognize them as being depressingly familiar
danielpbarron: there's the problem; there is no such thing as being "authed"
Michail1: serbian was squatting as EPiSKiNG-
assbot: You rated user grubles on 23-Dec-2014, with a rating of -1, and supplied these additional notes: Disingenuous at best. One of the large group of everyday nitwits that wandered into Bitcoin early on enough so as to end up with a much larger momentary fortune than their limited brainpower could support. After squandering it through the usual means, they prefer to pretend their funciar stupidity is someone else's fault.. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: why this wouldn't be directly obvious is a little concerning as to the qual of the thought process that went into all of that discussion, but whatever.
kakobrekla: so as it is now, it will get rejected and refunded prolly.
shinohai: I may as well educate myself for the coming revolution.
BingoBoingo: <kakobrekla> as stated, there is enough interest with a small rebellion on top - so they stay << Maybe raise the limit? Perhaps 1BTC is nao too small and spammy, but 100 BTC is ok. ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 09-01-2015 04:39:16; assbot: Logged on 23-12-2014 19:47:34; mircea_popescu: re the entire grubles/bitvps thing : the listing was discussed for a while, in a public channel. grubles was there, and not only represented himself in agreement, but represented rg as the owner of the thing.
kakobrekla: as stated, there is enough interest with a small rebellion on top - so they stay
punkman: I'd rather have the trades here as well
pete_dushenski: as chetty said, it's proof of pulse.
isaackl: For BitBet, SEO or finding sites with underutilised ad space (as with 8chan) is probably the way to go? Both take time though. I can send your btc back if you want as tbh I have little expertise in that world. Also let me know if you think my reasoning is flawed.
felipelalli: trinque: thanks, I asked just as a shortcut! Just laziness to sign! :D
trinque: "Crucially, Iraq is labeled as an integral part of this “Shia expansion.”" << this provides context for the recent change in US-Saudi relations
trinque: https://medium.com/insurge-intelligence/secret-pentagon-report-reveals-west-saw-isis-as-strategic-asset-b99ad7a29092 << making everyone in the US government a traitor to the United States according to its own law
decimation: "Then comes a second, more unexpected warning: ?Now, guys, I?ve got to tell you this park, I believe, is a sex-offender park. Everyone in here is a sex offender. I could be wrong, we?re going to find out, but I think that?s the deal on this one. So stay together as a herd.?"
mircea_popescu: (same Xlhost.com as in the arbt thing discussed there)
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes wasn't anything too riveting, apparently, as now i dun recall. BingoBoingo black people are what, 10% ?
mircea_popescu: the only winning plan would be to make it mandatory for any woman that ever wrote or aspired to writing for any "social justice" outlet to spend the time she's got left until 30 as a harem slave in the arab world.
mircea_popescu: the future of the us at all levels is this thing where it's your job as the business owner to do the work of the police
mats: http://www.people-press.org/2013/06/10/majority-views-nsa-phone-tracking-as-acceptable-anti-terror-tactic
mircea_popescu: funkenstein_ generating entropy is not easy, and oyu can already do that as-is.
funkenstein_: so one reason it would be nice to have ECDSA as an asym. crypto option in PGP
mircea_popescu: how many can he lose, if he lives as long as dad, 10-15ish ?
mircea_popescu: not as in "what rsa means", as in "what rsa 4096" means
