gabriel_laddel: my point is that chinese as is must go away if they want to work with computers ☟︎
cazalla: gabriel_laddel, beatrix potter, mr men, other assorted books we got as gifts
nubbins`: because it lets you ignore yourself as the cause of all your problems? ☟︎
cazalla: at that point, ya sorta realise ok they really are fucking crazy cause i sure as fuck am not shilling for jidf from the mancave
cazalla: omg the jews! it's the joos as bitcoinpete would say
cazalla: anyway, i'm drunk, so emotions are amplified, my life is not as bad as i might claim when drunk
cazalla: and i can't take the kid.. needs a mum as much as he does a father.. i don't go for that single parent shit
cazalla: felt a little bad about that as i was trying to talk BingoBoingo into a bet over the bali nine executions to come on account i think they'll go free
cazalla: so even if i was intersted, sober cazalla might not be as willing to pay a premium
cazalla: i did not mention this due to criticism of mancave.. but as i sat in my recently acquired mancave, i thought it would be a suitable spot (have relocated back to shared computer/craft room on account autumn is here and mancave is too fucking cold)
cazalla: worse, TaT masquerades as bitcoinassets on it and is a mod to boot ☟︎
cazalla: b) some random cunt is talking about launching an altcoin whereby he "destroys an oz of gold on webcam" as proof of burn for creation of his altcoin ☟︎
fluffypony: about as serious as the NO GO ZONES in Paris
gabriel_laddel: ben_vulpes: regarding "code as data" common lisp has the var *read-eval* you can bind to nil if you're processing code as data.
gabriel_laddel: asciilifeform, mircea_popescu: If people were to take issue with this perhaps I'm missing information (and thus need to learn xyz). I'm going to do as I please either way, but prefer to be accurate.
asciilifeform: gabriel_laddel: describe it as world's premier atomic dirigible, if you take pleasure in this
gabriel_laddel: Does anyone take issue with me describing the lordship as "the peerage" and #-assets as "earth's premiere commercial forum"?
asciilifeform: feynman diddled radio as a young man - but quit, note.
asciilifeform: decimation: so long as it keeps up with blocks, theoretically
decimation: asciilifeform: yeah, might as well produce a pci-e card under s.nsa label
mircea_popescu: as far as i'm concerned, breaking any ansi standard is a net gain.
mircea_popescu: as in, trivially : make the sectors the size of a block
asciilifeform: normally when storage is scarce (or data set is huge) one cannot afford the waste of 'file system' that is not the same as the organization for the set
asciilifeform: as seen in movie 'frankenstein'
ben_vulpes: then i will as well
asciilifeform: (rather than db as used in your traditional $business)
ben_vulpes: not pure "fast as fuck" compute problems.
trinque: decimation: as those monstrosities "improve" they tend towards what rdbms has done forever
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: but as it happens - it's another mega-c-turd
ben_vulpes: this postgres as fs idea may actually have legs
trinque: and it doesn't slow down your queries, as the big shit is stored elsewhere of course and made reference to
asciilifeform: so long as they don't float off the pads - no problem
asciilifeform: 'That is very strange indeed. All of the house parts we currently carry are supplied by Digikey and Mouser, and are name-brand parts. At this moment, we only stock and only order parts from US vendors who are authorized vendors for the components we purchase. (This is why our BoM tool will often list parts as unavailable, even if they can be found at non-US or non-authorized dealers.)
mircea_popescu: and as they become obsolete in the future, ppl not wanting to upgrade their bitcoin archives will provide hdds with one of those ada or lisp-esque eternal lives.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: i grow more and more tempted every day to use postgres as a filesystem.
thestringpuller: as long as I don't have to sit between two fat people
ben_vulpes: that part was unnecessary, and risks putting one in the 'extra scrutiny' bin as i see it.
decimation: might as well turn the chumpatron wheel
cazalla: poor shrem, 2 years ago paraded around as the bitcoin millionaire kid, but today relegated to begging for $10 so as not to eat the prison food http://charlieshrem.com/so-im-going-to-prison/
danielpbarron: i guess there's an obvious reason as to why they can't do whatever tests you are doing before they ship the things
asciilifeform: as in, i get a head on a stake if doesn't work
asciilifeform: as in - hard guarantee
asciilifeform: it isn't even about the money as such
decimation: ben_vulpes: yeah except in this case, the taco stand bills itself as a custom taco stand
thestringpuller: lol those poor chinese workers. dunno if asciilifeform is as benevolent of slave driver as mircea_popescu
asciilifeform: and the game can be kept going as long as they like
asciilifeform: decimation: these are ordinary rngs, as seen at conference II
asciilifeform is floored by the sheer retardation. gave those idiots the simplest circuit in the world, as test
mircea_popescu: it stands with the finest italian handmade gelateria in the same relation as this later beast stands with budweiser
decimation: also, it's not quite as big an issue since they are below the van allen belts
decimation: might as well use your 'waldo'
mircea_popescu: in this day and age things aren't as they used to be, yo!
assbot: Logged on 13-03-2015 00:30:52; ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> ben_vulpes essentially, it means they have not an inkling of how to code. they're importing code as data. << i would like to hear the seasoned lispers take on this
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> ben_vulpes essentially, it means they have not an inkling of how to code. they're importing code as data. << i would like to hear the seasoned lispers take on this ☟︎
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes essentially, it means they have not an inkling of how to code. they're importing code as data.
ben_vulpes: decimation, asciilifeform, mod6, mircea_popescu, et al: what does it mean for openssl to load files in from disk as discussed last night? is it compiling .txts into machine code? loading precompiled stuff?
cazalla: it's not that i mind that they mentioned other people part of a possible syndicate with silvey (which i didn't include in article as no proof of this anyway) but least they could do is admit that yeah, we followed it back from the avatar after having read about it on qntra
Adlai: * theater is accepted as 'security'
cazalla: Adlai, ah i never saw it as such, i was only placed at the door because i got the job as a result of nepotism and they had to put me somewhere hence first evar security guy for that shop lol
cazalla: Adlai: you've never had security at an event ask to open a bag/compartment, only to barely glance what was inside once open? <<< my first evar job was bag checker/door security at a retail store, i would ask to look in bag, they would open, i would nod and they'd walk out.. they might've easily walked in, filled up the bag and walked out with the goods because i sure as fuck didn't know
mircea_popescu: First, the money has to be taken by force from the wealthy. Voluntary contributions don't count. Taxation at a level that the wealthy will consent to doesn't count. Any approach that recognizes the wealthy as having rights is unsatisfactory. Even worse is any recognition of philanthropy and the idea that some of the wealthy have social consciences.
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 21:14:18; danielpbarron: i could specify that it doesn't count as a fork if the resulting coin is still accepted by MPEx :p
nubbins`: ...and fwiw there was a tooling charge, just not presented as such :P
danielpbarron: i could specify that it doesn't count as a fork if the resulting coin is still accepted by MPEx :p ☟︎
davout: it's not possible, because defining gavincoin as "everything that is not bitcoin" just doesn't work
trinque: they're just bored kids, with as much focused malice as a bored kid can muster
danielpbarron: this video about itally might as well be about U.S., or Connecticut at least
asciilifeform: it solves an actual problem, that some folks perceive themselves as having
mircea_popescu: yeah, sure, because he couldn't be served just as well by a common bus.
asciilifeform: as well as climate-switching
asciilifeform: the machine, as i understand, is for reasonably quick, inexpensive, and unobtrusive jurisdiction-switching
mircea_popescu: i mean sure, as an outing, soemthing to do for a day or w/e, great. splendid sport.
asciilifeform: Adlai: and srsly, sha256 as a callout?! it's a pg or 2
Adlai: (guy used a defconstant symbol as a local variable)
asciilifeform: but no, i don't have precisely same items to put in rented space as the neighbouring derps
asciilifeform: as i understand it costs more than that to have your title not magicked away by the 'big boy' privatizers in the locale
asciilifeform: as recently as 30!
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 08:58:59; fluffypony: as a reporter you don't want to claim something as fact when it isn't, but the USMS holding 3 auctions is accepted enough that it doesn't have to be "alleged" :-P
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'Well... truth is a lot more complicated than that - in many places, in most places really national sovereignity is implemented as "being incredibly stupid in our own special way", which is of course neither "their own" in any sense nor to any degree special. This has to be broken down...' << aha colonization.
asciilifeform: crapware artists around the world will appreciate the ready-baked fw diddlamatic library, as will winblows users!
asciilifeform: mats: when the actual authorship is plain as daylight
PeterL: would be fine as an article if the whole things is all on one page! grumble grumble
PeterL: A while ago I got the entire discworld series as ebooks for like 0.005 btc, back when a btc was about 10 bucks
danielpbarron: i remember many years ago not liking reddit based soley on this one really annoying kid being way too enthusiastic about it. He went on and on about how some anime trailor was "totally a troll" as he hammered away on his keyboard.
Adlai: this is a workable approach, it just has higher capex demands (as opposed to 'all at once')
Adlai: so not quite as bad as http://log.bitcoin-assets.com//?date=10-03-2015#1047620 ☝︎
gabriel_laddel: trinque: it seems to me that arguing with e.g., ascii as to if you can make linux less terrible is by and large useless sans the loot (useful technical tidbits) he drops occasionally. If you'd like to work on such a thing I can set you on the only sane path that I'm aware of, with justification as to why you'd do this instead of else.
gabriel_laddel: ben_vulpes: "what is the lisp concept and how is hickey crapping on it?" << the lisp concept is: "a crystalline pyramid of comprehensible mutually-interlocking concepts", see Thumbs Down for Clojure http://www.loper-os.org/?p=42 The parens (i.e., syntactical correspondence with ast) so far as I can tell are inescapable, but incidental. They are simply the most obvious product of the philosophy "sophistication blosso
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-03-2015#1049682 << hah i ran into this as well, thought it was due to mounting the working dir in from the host machine ☝︎
fluffypony: as a reporter you don't want to claim something as fact when it isn't, but the USMS holding 3 auctions is accepted enough that it doesn't have to be "alleged" :-P ☟︎
mircea_popescu: they're not that few, if you're actually fighting. as opposed to what regular armies regularly do.
mod6: i wanna say that i ran into that as well.
asciilifeform: as shown in my old instructions.
trinque: so as not to mask $HOME
mod6: asciilifeform: because how we'll roll out the release: 1) I'll patch the source myself and put it in a 'bitcoin' directory 2) i'll place the 'auto.sh' in the same parent directory as 'bitcoin' directory 3) tar those up 4) end user will unpack archive and execute `auto.sh'
mod6: i suppose it could be some weird regex failure... although, what danielpbarron pasted as a manual verify should have matched this:
mircea_popescu: what's it change tho. it's common for rapists to regard themselves as "good fathers" and so forth, because she was asking for it or w/e.
decimation: mircea_popescu: it's common in the us for a usg employee to regard himself as 'apolitical' because he wasn't elected
mircea_popescu: "so the wife's a nag ? doesn't mean i /have to/ beat her until she desists. build mancave instead." on it goes. politicians are idiots ? self-appoint as "better than this" and that's that, work done. not like you have to shoot the bad politico if you can't vote him out. what, /have to/ ?!
asciilifeform: around same time as ada '83
