BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Still vegetables, but... Not
as many.
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> and so california is running out of water because while population doubled, water works have not been allowed to go forward ; and the us is ethically collapsing because hey... no useful violence to be had << Also the part where the largest agricultural use of water in California is... Alfalfa... for export to China
as livestock fodder...
nubbins`: many of the lessons learned inside the kitchen are uniquely inapplicable outside,
as well.
nubbins`: TBF i don't think i have a chance
as a chef anyway
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: Well thats hard to summarize with a formulae
as its relative. Normally I would favour the person who was most productive prior to said violence
mircea_popescu:
as a government, all you can get is beta males and menopausal females.
mircea_popescu: because no matter what, govt will keep getting that money, and keep seeing him
as a worthy expense.
mircea_popescu: "No thanks. I'll keep using my card. It has way too many benefits not to. I'll switch to Bitcoin when it's easier to use, offers buyer protection and has more benefits than cc's. Which won't be anytime soon." << funny how dynamic equilibrium perceived
as static works.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes "If Macintosh laptops (long held up
as the gold standard of quality in personal computing) " << nobody ever held a laptop
as an acceptable form of personal computing. let alone any sort of standard.
assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 03:58:31; Adlai: reddit is inferior to irc on nearly the same level
as the inferiority between facebook and actual conversation
assbot: Logged on 27-04-2015 03:57:05; EllieAsksWhy: I initially knew Web of Trust
as the Finnish company mywot which has totally gone to hell since someone bought them out a year ago. Your Web of Trust is more like the real one, that proceeded mywot by over a decade, right?
ben_vulpes: "Minaj pulled out of Hot 97’s Summer Jam after a DJ criticized Roman’s smash EDM-styled single “Starships”
as something other than “real hip-hop.” Lil Wayne and the rest of Young Money canceled their performance at the show
as well, in solidarity." << heh.
EllieAsksWhy: I will peruse. Y'all will probably be amused by this, but I tried to get myself here by getting an account at one of those bitcoin gambling sites, Satoshi Dice or such. I thought that if I could get an ID there, I could figure out how to use it
as a

☟︎ assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 03:50:42; asciilifeform: <mircea_popescu> that may be. i'm just pointing out that biology offers a very significant challenge to theoretical cs. << i must confess, that i am at a loss
as to which aspects of meat we should like to replicate in machines: intransigence? toe fungus? pneumonia? schizophrenia?
assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 04:29:22; asciilifeform: and l0l, apparently no one mentioned the matchsticks. so let this count
as mention.
williamdunne: If a club lets anyone in, so long
as they can travel to the club its not exactly discriminatory, just a matter of practicality
williamdunne: Sure, it doesn't care who you are so long
as you have keys and the ability to sign
mircea_popescu: menahem "like how?"
as in, show me how it would go. quote this putative comparative exampler ?
fluffypony:
as long
as it treats a DNSSEC
as a hard fail it can
fluffypony: that said, a DNSSEC fail is a soft fail (
as not all zones support DNSSEC at this stage) - so it'll present the address for user validation
williamdunne:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=26-04-2015#1111640 <<< To the layman it seems they would be different. Assuming you're a fairly boring person
as far
as you're concerned dollars are pretty fungible (obviously not entirely and dependent on payment system), but they're not even close to non-discriminatory. I guess the difference IMO is between 1 btc = 1 btc, and anyone and everyone being able to have 'a
☝︎ assbot: Logged on 26-04-2015 05:33:34; mircea_popescu: williamdunne "The cost of enforcement of contracts grows over time
as an increasing number of loopholes are found -
as described in an article by Mircea Popescu" you know you could ~link it~ o.O
mircea_popescu: anyway williamdunne i see what you meant by "not
as eloquent" :D
cazalla: jayk, did ya refuse to take it off? bandana is
as bad
as feet on table tbh

☟︎ mircea_popescu: because that is the property here : same
as entropy, bitcoin lacks the ability to review earlier states on the base of later states.
assbot: Logged on 25-04-2015 23:43:06; asciilifeform:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=25-04-2015#1110941 << interestingly, i asked about the cost. was told something like '$1m for the old style, 2.5 for the new generation.' fella said this with straight face, too,
as if there were nothing remarkable about this factoid.
assbot: Logged on 25-04-2015 22:44:55; decimation: usually with power, bus, network, etc supplied
as part of the 'crate'
trinque: I was for example shocked to find an object system in CL
as a layman
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i wasn't going nearly
as far
as any of that.
gabriel_laddel: which means that
as long
as you live, you will not live in a clean world. << select portions of humanity have, to varying degrees created "clean" computing.
mircea_popescu: which means that
as long
as you live, you will not live in a clean world.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform no, idea is that some people who can't even make dragonfly are in a weak position to teach grandmother to suck eggs,
as it were.
assbot: Logged on 25-04-2015 21:56:01; Naphex: trinque: gentoo doesn't even have iptables defaulted, so
as soon
as his done he'll end up recompiling
Pierre_Rochard: I was outraged because the reason they ignore quarter (and don’t raise an error!) is because there’s no convention
as to whether the date should be the beg or end of the quarter. Month, week, etc do the beginning, why not adopt that
as the convention!?
Naphex: having a annonymous ip is dandy. but no way anywhere near
as enough. you still have to implement most of the stuff i said above especially the filtering part
Naphex: local is always a threat
as well, no matter where you airgap
trinque: Naphex:
as far
as what it means to have a fits-in-head system, please do read asciilifeform's material; he's far more qualified to say.
trinque: Naphex: regarding earlier thread, things such
as parsing inputs, putting sensitive data on networks that don't knock knees directly with the web, all great stuff
trinque: what is this obsession with making things safe,
as though you don't still die in agony at the end?
menahem: pete_dushenski def, ill try <pre>
as per ben_vulpes reco. always a work in progress. :)
decimation:
as opposed to a 1u server you slip into the rack
decimation: usually with power, bus, network, etc supplied
as part of the 'crate'
☟︎ Naphex: asciilifeform: and you defend from 0 days
as always. running hardened and buring your servers while filltering all input
Naphex: asciilifeform: and you get all sorts of added on.
as well the standerd jre is pretty clean. most of the exploiting fun is on j2ee app servers and other enterprisey thingies
Naphex: trinque: gentoo doesn't even have iptables defaulted, so
as soon
as his done he'll end up recompiling
☟︎ Naphex: trinque: yeah but might
as well just skip the kernel.
mod6: ok qq: i saved the config
as 'btc-dev-gentoo64-ami.config', under the chroot: /usr/src/linux ; do I need to do anything specific to ensure that I'm compiling with this config instead of the defaulted filename '.config' ?
trinque: williamdunne: I tend to think there's a place for metal
as cheap
as a micro ec2 instance for example
williamdunne: trinque: Wouldn't that be the same
as any DC that offers cheap metal?
mod6: i guess this is just my first attempt at it. this build of gentoo needs to built with nothing extra so we can build all of the rest by hand, then we'll have a clue
as to what tool chain it's using and it's not using something wacky behind our backs.
trinque: mod6: of course
as per earlier thread, this idea that xen guests can be secure is laughable
mircea_popescu: i know that if i'm the guy where the buck stops (usually rendered
as "ceo" in anglocircles) then god damned are my opinionsmandatory for the whole organisation. wtf else are we even doing.
williamdunne: ben_vulpes: I too have the capability to write, even if I'm not
as eloquent
as most here
assbot: The Bitlove LLC spin on their recent implosion,
as presented to their captive audience. on Trilema - A blog by Mircea Popescu. ... (

williamdunne: Okay, so MPEX route or just
as a small private product
Naphex: mircea_popescu: well if they do the breakout they'll surely rootkit the hypervisor kernel
as well. so doubt they'll ever find out :P
Naphex: trinque: i guess,
as i see they use xen. imho letting xen guests define the kernel is a sure way of suffering when they manage to break out of the hypervisor :P
mod6: Is it at all possibru to set up the instance with a Gentoo AMI, and then use it
as a shim to somehow re-load with a clean stage3?
williamdunne: mircea_popescu: So what are these Pogos? I had a look for them but I found some cloud backup company who didn't even advertise a pogo plug
as far
as I could see
Naphex:
as long
as you don't have duplicated data ( and you shouldn't)
williamdunne: Wait, surely TreeMap is the most ideal
as it guarantees that the orders are actually.. in order?
williamdunne: Naphex: Matching engine, using one thats meant to write to disk and have an audit trail (
as well
as being stupidly high performance) but so far its treating me like shit
mircea_popescu: Pierre_Rochard places that are serious about online banking mandate use of ie 10! and they get their sexurity
as activex implants!
