trinque: ben_vulpes: | postgrest ++ <<
that it uses basic auth is
the biggest wart I see
trinque: not
that it does
that, but building one in it
trinque: I was eyeballing it as a rest interface generator
thinger before
tripping over postgreset
ben_vulpes: "roughly 3000 BTC" << ascii_* now
that's a rocket
ben_vulpes: lobbes: "and omitting
to state material facts." << something
trips my native engrish filter in
this
☟︎ ben_vulpes: did briefly look into providing "how likely is
this addr
to doublespend" as a service
joeblo: Sure,
that's not an API, but
there are API's around it
joeblo: I'm
trying
to dev up
to an API but
there doesn't seem
to be a definite answer for
this
ben_vulpes: for
the very simple reason
that complex financial instruments are rarely fungible.
joeblo: I'm curious, what's
the standard implementation for digital assets?
mircea_popescu: i was like "but i want
the cool rooms, like i had", guy was like "well i hope you don't have more
than 8 people coming
then, because we're not building a patio"
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes
this is literally
true, seeing how
they had one of your suites per floor.
ben_vulpes: all of a sudden
there is life in
the
thing
ben_vulpes: i suspect
that mircea_popescu booked out all of hotel redacto for con3
mircea_popescu: when not running varnish, hits > 2x pages.
this makes a difference because children.
ben_vulpes: <pete_dushenski> "are self-funded and self-motivated" <<
the actual footnote you want here is
the reference
to
the deficits
that serenissima runs
mircea_popescu: i don't really understand
the magic, but when running varnish hits ~= pages.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes php has 0
to do with it. for one
thing, it's compiled. for
the other, it's apache
that gets hammered, purely a html problem.
ben_vulpes: it's
the latest and greatest in php performance
tekmology!
trinque: mircea_popescu: memcached has performed well for me in
the past, is supported by nginx
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> i dun
think you laymen understand running php under load is like << ftfy
trinque: guy's got actual
traffic
to contend with
mircea_popescu: i dun
think you laymen understand what a real blog is like.
trinque: mircea_popescu: I've yet
to hit upon a devops process I actually like. On gentoo at least it appears
to be an emerge varnish; rc-update add varnish default; /etc/init.d/varnish start
ben_vulpes: <pete_dushenski> "beating heart of
the source code" << more like well-armed guardians of
the blood in
the fly in
the amber
ben_vulpes: look, pete, if
the lord had intended capitalization, he'd have capitalized whatever himself.
ben_vulpes: blech and with
the capitalizing of my carefully uncapitalized lines
ben_vulpes: * ascii_launchpad [00:04] just walked by a 'women in
tech' poster << in
the airport?!
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> [23:47] # cd /usr/local/src << baww look at
the hobbyist sysadmin
ben_vulpes: ascii_*, mircea_popescu: "hadoop" <<
thought y'all'd get a kick out of
that
mircea_popescu: fun fact :
this is a cover.
the original was an 80s
thing of some whales nobody remembers
today.
Adlai: although i hear
they've been asking
that in
the sahara ever since it deserted up
Adlai: sum1 hu
thnx u vollrvting nitcoin
Adlai: how blessed be our gates,
to keep out such persistent barbarians
mircea_popescu: Jeffrey Walker
told jurors
that
the Philadelphia Police Department drug squad
targeted white "college-boy ... khaki-pants
types" who were "easy
to intimidate."
liquidassets: that would make more sense
then
trying
to cram in into what we have already <<not sustainable
mircea_popescu: considering
the actual
tx pressure is ~0 atm, blocks not even half full etc, he can prolly get away with just using btc for at least a year.
liquidassets: retail anything really, I'm want
to help businesses succeed after
the next economic adjustment happens
mircea_popescu: incidentally, kinda lulzy for me
to read
the "concerns" of
the bitcoin derpistan cca q4 2014 / q1 2015 in
trilema writings
two years prior.
liquidassets: "People
try
to, because of
the misguided belief
that Bitcoin value is somehow related
to or deriving from its crossection in
the retail market" <<ok I"m starting
to grok
mircea_popescu: the idea was
that bitcoin isn't going
to change
to accomodate
the retail market, principally because
the retail market is (necessarily) much
too small.
liquidassets: the more I get into retail
the more I want
to incentivize bitcoin payments
mircea_popescu: bitcoin works for say
trilema credits retail, whatcha
talkin' aboot ?
liquidassets: MP can you elaborate on how you don't see bitcoin being retail anything? It seems your
thoughts work more in eons, won't
there will be an in between
time where
things might not be end game yet
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell pete_dushenski "If you
the historians write about you."
Pierre_Rochard: pete_dushenski: haha yes, but
this non-biologist doesn’t see why not! seems like
the ideal controlled experiment machine
mircea_popescu: if you got some needle work being done youy can use
that fixed point
to control "development" around it.
mircea_popescu: ascii_launchpad> because it is not physically possible
to breed and
teach needleworkers fast enough
to keep up with a complexity collapse. << it's not a complexity collapse. i know how
to manage
this problem, i've done it before.
pete_dushenski: i'd love
to know who funded
this guy's eight years of 'research'
pete_dushenski: "Delvoye stated
that everything in modern life is pointless.
The most useless object he could create was a machine
that serves no purpose at all, besides
the reduction of food
to waste." <<
these intellectually poor artists and
their purposes.
ascii_launchpad: (from when it was mostly clear,
to dijkstra et al
that -this- would come,
to, well, when
the symptoms became impossible
to ignore for anyone half awake)
ascii_launchpad: no one can carry water in buckets within order of magnitude of how quickly
the flames spread.
ascii_launchpad: because it is not physically possible
to breed and
teach needleworkers fast enough
to keep up with a complexity collapse.
ascii_launchpad: mircea_popescu: eventually folks will realize
that it is -not- a needlework problem.
mircea_popescu: there's about
ten square miles of packaging needlework
that needs doing, and
the doers are all derping about consent or some stupid shit like
that.
ascii_launchpad: mircea_popescu: actually gentoo failed (in
the usual sense of
the word) long ago when its head dev sold soul
to microshit
