from_vice: Haha it's like jumping back
to 1996
from_vice: I linked into here via
the vice article link provided in
the comments by someone--I feel a bit violated
nubbins`: mircea_popescu it's like news, but related
to you by your buddy who plays in a band and drinks
too much
danielpbarron: from_vice, paste
the link at
the
top of your browser
nubbins`: this is way more boring
than when
the reuters reporter showed up
danielpbarron: i pasted
the webchat link in
the vice article comments because
their stupid javascript loads and renders
the whole chat room on
their article page. LOL
nubbins`: guess you're not actually here from vice
tho, huh
nubbins`: (talk by
typing in
the box down
there ----v)
mircea_popescu: who
the fuck washes
things by hand in cold water. what is
this, slavegirl concentration camp ?!
nubbins`: ^ silkscreened hang
tags, 2/1 on 130# cougar
nubbins`: for
those who still don't know wtf is going on, brush up on yr number
theory
mircea_popescu: sort-of like a guy in a mma fight being beaten
to death with his own, broken arms.
mircea_popescu: lol. kinda hard
to beat me up with my own fucking words eh.

nubbins`: which is both infinitely large in size, and infinitely smaller
than, say,
the set of real numbers
nubbins`: at
the risk of being a pedant, 1 is a common divisor of
the set of integers

mircea_popescu: this, of course, after
the current glut is processed, which estimatively should
take about a month o.O
mircea_popescu: mike_c it'll please you
to know
that a) we're going
to be setting up daily batch processing of new keys, so people failing
to find
theirs should be rare ; b) making better 404 page, mostly
to indicate
this fact.
mircea_popescu: it means it has
the factor of 1 in common with other keys.
lobbes: noob question incoming: so my key is showing a GCD of '1 (Ok, for now!)' ;
This means
that my key only has 1 prime factor in common with another submitted key?
mircea_popescu: only marginally interesting outside of
the strong set.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
these are endemic,
they come and go, it's a lot like stop-go
traffic.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller except
there is absolutely no need
to eli5, because 5 yolds can not be involved in bitcoin.
thestringpuller: "Again, why don't all devs
that against
this blocksize change come
together, and ELI5
to
the rest of us what are
the cons. ELI5 is important if you want
the public
to understand your points. So for now Gavin has me convinced
the change is necessary. Please Please Please...."
to which someone replies "Heaven help us if we ever encounter an issue
that requires more
than a five-year-old's intelligence."
mircea_popescu: heads may roll, yes, metaphorically or factually, yes.
this shit is not happening.
mircea_popescu: if
there is any certainty about "bitcoin future" at hte present
time, it is
that
there will not be a block size increase in
the next 12 months.
mircea_popescu: i am ever
thankful
to
the idiots
that do very idiotic
things. like
that vice article. like
this
tipping of hand.
mircea_popescu: within
the next 12 months and which allows Bitcoin
to keep growing."
mircea_popescu: "What I don't see from you yet is a *specific and credible plan*
that fits
mircea_popescu: "didn't happen in bezzle-land, didn't happen at all. icbc
trades on pink sheets. world exists in my asshole"
mircea_popescu: startups, or volunteers who don't have millions in venture capital
to play
mircea_popescu: be, but significant numbers of users are running programs developed by
tiny
mircea_popescu: "Firstly, no,
the "Bitcoin ecosystem" is not well funded. Blockstream might
mircea_popescu: have bitcoin declared a "public service" or right or whatever by congress, get obamabitcoin and all
that jazz. make
the MIT shitheads, google etc all fat and giggly.
mircea_popescu: I disagree. When
the money supply eventually dwindles I doubt it will be fee pressure
that funds mining
mircea_popescu: > pressure, and
that blocks be relatively consistently full or very nearly
mircea_popescu: > Long-term incentive compatibility requires
that
there be some fee
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller i
think you misread or misunderstood something. come again ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform russian random businessmen, at
that,
too.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: do you have
the source for
the pull request where hearn
tried
to merge in heartbleed?
mircea_popescu: > basic requirement for any serious commitment
to blocksize increase.
mircea_popescu: > Certainly a consensus in
this kind of
technical community should be a
mircea_popescu: and if people have
to
test
things in negative
three days, fuck people. handler said, gavin & mike do,
that's how "standards committees" work in
the us.
mircea_popescu: so apparently
teh idiots actually have a schedule, handler said something like "this must be in by 2016 no matter what". so either
they get it in "0.11" or "0.12" or else 0.13 or 15 or 29 will have
to happen BEFORE
that date.
mircea_popescu: months
to upgrade in order
to fork
the chain by
the end of
the winter
mircea_popescu: private
that
this
timeline meant a change
to
the block size was unlikely
to
mircea_popescu: shit asciilifeform
they're not going
to be so many
that we don't reach 3.15 mn moduli are
they!
jurov: ^ i suggest using
these phrases
to qntra editors
jurov: yest it was kicking
the can,
today "to keep
the Bitcoin show on
the road"
davout: danielpbarron: ok i see,
that makes lots of sense
davout: aha, not sure i ever actually *read*
that spec, is it
trilema'd?
danielpbarron: you could do
that, but
the spec is for it
to have all necessary stuff contained in
the unit itself
davout: why not simply have it reside on
the SATA drive?
davout: danielpbarron: because other
than
the attached SATA
the pogo has no other storage
than
the eeprom, right?
danielpbarron: the end goal is
to flash it into
the eeprom; not sure if anyone's done
that yet
davout: oh and also
there was something else, maybe asciilifeform can help with
that, probably very noobish question, but i have nfi how
to setup
the pogo so
that i'm able
to put
the compiled kernel on it without needing it
to use
tftp
to load it on each boot
davout: danielpbarron: i
think
that what i'll do is slightly change
the buildroot config
to be able
to "busybox mkfs"
danielpbarron: the one with a hard drive
that i have running bitcoind is
the one i put ArchLinux on
assbot: Logged on 07-05-2015 09:53:33; davout: danielpbarron: you created
the filesystem of your pogo on your local station amirite? messed a bit with fdisk but it looks like
the pogo doesn't have any mkfs binary :/
davout: so it looks
that it can either be enabled in a buildroot config option, gonna investigate
this later
davout: danielpbarron: you created
the filesystem of your pogo on your local station amirite? messed a bit with fdisk but it looks like
the pogo doesn't have any mkfs binary :/
