asciilifeform: рушить мосты и ломать дороги, то мы, конечно, оплатим. Англия с Францией подумали, и претензии к России умерили.' << i had nfi
mircea_popescu: "daniel is a bot" "how can you tell it's a bot ?" "because i don;t like what it says, but let's veil this into some numerology considerations". hurr.
mircea_popescu: as if there's fucking options at their level. "oh, i am destitute but have options!!1"
mircea_popescu: lol all the self important "i'll read something else". really bitch ? what will you read, trilema ?
shinohai: I missed the pantsuit drama yesterday http://archive.is/bpJUc
mircea_popescu: especially fabuous as the "you may also be interested in" bullshit is liek "virtualnoe bezdele rabotodateli rasplachivayutsya za internet SERFING" under "karera i svoy biznes". AS FUCKING IF! ☟︎
danielpbarron: they also gave me a gmail address, for what that's worth. i'm like "what's wrong with doing it right here??"
danielpbarron: i had that earlier today, went to #somechannel saying i want to sponsor show. they give me patreon link
mircea_popescu: i am personally insulted by all the useless fuckwits with patreon profiles because unlike the useless fuckwits a la say rms, they MOVED THERE AFTER THE REPUBLIC.
a111: Logged on 2013-02-10 04:08 benkay: i'm waiting for the developing world to figure it out
a111: Logged on 2017-12-28 16:56 phf: it was literally the case of "milord, i made this basket from only finest of twigs, for your misses. ... bless you, milord"
diana_coman: I've updated the reference shelf phf, maybe you are missing the previous patch? http://www.dianacoman.com/reference-code-shelf/
diana_coman: I tested it locally with v and v99 and everything pressed fine
diana_coman: I just noticed the weird graph; any idea what?
phf: diana_coman: i think there might be an issue with your ch3
asciilifeform: ( i suspect an attempted overflow exploit, against something-or-other )
asciilifeform: because as-is, i've nfi who that is.
phf: aaaand since i don't want to think about any of this shit right now, you get a multiline born until i get to it :>
phf: but i'm not sure that i want it to spit that extra bit, even though it's missing, hmm...
phf: which i think is a problem in quoter, e.g. http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-25#1758552 ☝︎
phf: but the main reason is that i realized that cl-irc probably doesn't properly split lines, which needs to be solved
phf: i think deedbot spits two entries sometimes with the wallet functionality
shinohai: if i am curious to know what height the btrash is at, etc
asciilifeform: and not because display expensive -- i have e.g. chinese usb 'watt meter' dongle with display, that cost iirc 3bux
asciilifeform: mod6: when i think about shitoshi's idiocy that 'aggression' replaces, i froth with rage. the sheer stink of winblowzism, 'let's all run nodes for 2h a day after booting winblowz to play whorecraft-III, boot time is sooospeshul'
phf: i think that maybe it should also return a link to original, or maybe post more than one line
a111: 2013-02-10 <benkay> i'm waiting for the developing world to figure it out
asciilifeform: i run with aggression ( from this point on i will run NO nodes without aggression ) so boot time is irrelevant
ben_vulpes: i imagine it's in your addnode set?
asciilifeform: oh hah i thought that www croaked long ago
BingoBoingo: OMG I'll stop transmitting my contagious typos
phf: so it looks like i started reading loper-os in 2008 or so
ben_vulpes: BingoBoingo: you know i just went looking for a "best of MPOE-PR" and didn't find one
phf: asciilifeform: no, i ultimately came here by way of loper-os
ben_vulpes: lol i stuck my head into bitcointalk.org for all of ten minutes before i found hanbot's legendary piece and jumped to #b-a
phf: it was literally the case of "milord, i made this basket from only finest of twigs, for your misses. ... bless you, milord" ☟︎
ben_vulpes: nah, kakologs were in place before i showed up
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes was here before asciilifeform , i think, and in the era prior to proper logging, so i have nfi where he came from
a111: Logged on 2017-12-28 13:28 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-27#1758896 << i have this vague memory that both phf and trinque were originally introduced in this sense by ben_vulpes ; whereas you were introduced similarily by hanbot. by comparison the pantsuit "evidently correct & only method" of herdemocracy has produced a whole lot of indiancandies and other self-choice delusionists.
ben_vulpes: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-28#1759407 << phf pasted me some emacs erc (irc client) auth scriptage way back in the gribble days which got him a rating, and trinque and i'd been drinking together in meatland, and hanging in previously a mentioned pantsuit hellhole irc channel and ricocheted off #b-a a few times (at my insistence iirc) before it stuck ☝︎
asciilifeform: i'ma relent nao, srsly
BingoBoingo: It is like when I get surprised with yet another species of past tense
asciilifeform: ( i remember 1 key word, 'also' )
asciilifeform: patches yes. i was speaking of the blockchain-vchain parallel.
asciilifeform: but meanwhile, in historic loose ends , http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-24#1758001 << how to square this with >> http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-05#1637609 ( summary : classical bitcoin permits ~modification of old blocks~ via the idjit 'tx replace' mechanism. even though -- as i understand -- it'd split the network if actually ever deployed. which it was not, not even in prb. but theoretically still permitted by the protocol. ) ☝︎☝︎
mircea_popescu: i advised her to be careful what she dreams of in the future.
mircea_popescu: "i dunno... stupid...dating show...something."
a111: Logged on 2017-12-08 15:02 asciilifeform: the 'good climate makes folx lazy and slowly climbing 'back up to trees' ' item is an old saw, but i'm not aware of any major hole in the theory
mircea_popescu: "for them to find four i gotta put in ten, and it gets worse as you go further"
asciilifeform: 'motherfuckers, i gave then such particle-like electrons, and they STILL dun have roomtemp supercon...'
asciilifeform: plenty of what i suspect 'kindergarten-level' (in hindsight, like karatsuba) -- unsolved.
asciilifeform: or i could go on.
asciilifeform: or for that matter, usable maxwell. ( modern electronic design uses a narrowly restricted, i.e. sorta-fits-in-head special form of maxwell )
mircea_popescu: (i deliberately said "a guy like einstein" to avoid the history discussion)
mircea_popescu: which is WHY i kept chuckling at inept illiterate imbeciles herp-derping about "oh, a cult".
mircea_popescu: and since i mentioned that : religion simply means acknowledgement of one's betters. it's all it is, worthip of the superior.
asciilifeform: let's. ( i'ma come to tea, brb )
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i dunno if i did this before, but let's put it in the logs at the risk of repeating self.
mircea_popescu: i know of no better example of a candidate miracle.
mircea_popescu: one of my favourite sights, i confess
mircea_popescu: *two weeks* i mean.
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: I could not find an output from Google Calc for: 2**2048
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: I could not find an output from Google Calc for: log(2**2048)
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: I could not find an output from Google Calc for: log(2**2048)**6/log(2**14)**6
jhvh1: mircea_popescu: I could not find an output from Google Calc for: log(2^2048)^6/log(2^14)^6
a111: Logged on 2017-11-16 20:41 mircea_popescu: there's a great southpark episode explaining how this false dychotomy is intended to work in practice (i'm a bit couintry & im a bit rock and roll item)
shinohai: i still wanna know why Romania let Chad get away with stealing their flag.
mircea_popescu: this is why i say.
mircea_popescu: anyway, ro maintains very lively solid state physics programme at universities (mostly, buchjarest/magurele), i would not be surprised if they had one on the grounds.
mircea_popescu: i have nfi.
asciilifeform: i was thinking of bulgaria specifically.
asciilifeform: troo: i have nfi what kw-hour would cost in e.g. a china that goes full-bore su-style fission buildout
BingoBoingo: Kind of how I was telling other people at hostel that when you make eye contact with everyone you come across on your walk, you tend not to get acosted
mircea_popescu: now THAT'd be a golden nut to crack. though i have ~0 hope of it ever working.
asciilifeform: ^ aha i immediately thought of it
mircea_popescu: the drawback is that most nobles dun wanna upkeep their castles for some reason. i'm hoping it's mostly misunderstanding teh future in the benign sense of "really, didn't give this much thought"
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-27#1758896 << i have this vague memory that both phf and trinque were originally introduced in this sense by ben_vulpes ; whereas you were introduced similarily by hanbot. by comparison the pantsuit "evidently correct & only method" of herdemocracy has produced a whole lot of indiancandies and other self-choice delusionists. ☝︎☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-12-28 06:12 mircea_popescu: in other rapetrucks, i watched die hard. the russians are germans back then ; the terrorists still terrorists. the "career woman" still very much homely gun moll, wink wink nudge nudge. the dumbass "technology" ie cameras on every wall more of a curio than anything, deemed eccentricly harmless (see also above discussion of parasitosis).
BingoBoingo: https://www.macstadium.com/colo/#dcselect << Was a finalist I considered $35/month for small machine
asciilifeform: i'ma certainly patronize castle BingoBoingostein tho
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: i am looking to set up a handful of trb nodez 1) small, 'disposable' boxen 2) for fiatolade 3) with decent , i.e. at least 100mb symmetric ea. 4) NOT all in same cage
BingoBoingo: So last night I returned from una cita con una chica to discover a concert on the roof of the hostel was winding down. While I rehydrated drinking copious agua buena other guests at the hostel consulted me for answers to "What's good in Montevideo"
BingoBoingo: <asciilifeform> !~later tell BingoBoingo where was that hoster that'll host peculiarly small boxes , that you were using back in the day ? i have a buncha http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-19#1754247 that fit exactly those dimensions << I looked at "Mac Stadium" but ended up going with Joe's Datacenter before the payment portion of Joe's website went full NameCheap retard. ☝︎

phf: heh, i was prepared to be disappointed, but the op, as they say, delivered
shinohai: heh i got txt on screen, no video
shinohai: ah mircea_popescu lookup has been there a while, but i think i forgot to have pete_dushenski push it to his bots page updates. ☟︎
a111: Logged on 2017-12-27 18:06 phf: i'll definitely document it though, because the process is arcane, and not at all automated.
asciilifeform: it is if you have a stalin, i.e. a firm power vertical.
mircea_popescu: i am convinced that all these useless foreigners had not an inkling of an idea that they're trading their ancestral land for the sack of shiny baubles, simply no conception whatsoever. "what, there's something wrong with codebase increase ?" they might ask, with all the endearing pathetism of well meaning senility, in the same tone as they might ask "where am i ? could you take me home ?", lost at a crowded crossroads.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-27 17:49 asciilifeform: ( and i gotta wonder whether lamport himself was an active perpetrator, or passive victim similar to knuth himself, when the 3GB of liquishit began to form )
a111: Logged on 2017-12-27 17:48 phf: it's hard to say how much knuth changed over years, without knowing the man, and i don't think "for which knuth is famous" is any kind of measure. he's certainly gotten old, but i think he might also be constituionally incapable of participating in a consensus.
mircea_popescu: i'd rather piss it in fresh snow.
a111: Logged on 2017-12-27 17:39 phf: but to answer the question, i think i don't particularly mind the subtrate. man does computations, i wouldn't be too concerned if he were to switch to ipad even, because he'd still be hand writing algorithms with a certain detachment to the concerns of extras
mircea_popescu: dunno why i read irssi
a111: Logged on 2017-12-27 17:20 phf: i suspect ircii simply predates usability. back when men counted each character, because bell telephone company metered bauds
mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-27#1759208 << i consider it perfectly acceptable ; if crapple software were improved to swallow 100% of their luserbase's output as opposed to merely 1% or w/e it is now it'd be even more acceptable. ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2017-12-27 17:14 phf: http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-27#1759185 << i sometimes wonder if there's some clever way to link back split posts (i mean in cases where urls are lost, perhaps by looking at cases where 250 byte message, followed by same person within ~~<3s or somesuch)
asciilifeform: !~later tell BingoBoingo where was that hoster that'll host peculiarly small boxes , that you were using back in the day ? i have a buncha http://btcbase.org/log/2017-12-19#1754247 that fit exactly those dimensions ☝︎☟︎
mircea_popescu: i dun think anyone intellectually honest still holds any notion that the prb crew is in any way working to fix or improve bitcoin.
