danielpbarron: i've see that guy before; he makes youtube videos for dumb people
nubbins`: So you're saying that ham sandwiches with lettuce aren't an integral part of smart contracts?
nubbins`: what in the
nubbins`: SO YOU'RE ACTUALLY, LIKE, TOTALLY SAYING THAT THICKER WALLS DON'T PREVENT CRIME?
nubbins`: @eris_ltd So you're saying better locks & thick walls don't lower crime? If so, should we lock our doors at all? Smart contracts = locks.
danielpbarron: actually that's a bad bet because how can i prove it? and that's why smart contracts are retarded

danielpbarron bets a small insurance amount on 'No' for "Amazon will deliver my book on time"
trinque: ben_vulpes: indeed, that making corpses bit, "ahhhhh, yes"
danielpbarron: probably yet another thing better managed by bitbet
ben_vulpes: trinque: it was pretty illuminating to me as well
danielpbarron: if pushed he'd probably have to admit that there would be "trusted 3rd parties" who vote on whether the event happened or not

danielpbarron: he's probably referring to some thing where both parties put up bitcoin collateral in an escrow controlled by "the block chain" ☟︎

fluffypony: I mean it's good in theory
nubbins`: no, they're smart because they prevent you from, say, stealing a bag of candy
kakobrekla: shouldn't those be called more like 'computable contracts' or whatever
nubbins`: i'm curious to know if this idiot had a broken example in mind, or if he just mashed words together
nubbins`: "because they're smart you can't break the law"
fluffypony: nubbins`: the smart contract must magically be able to solve self-disputes
trinque: my both immediate and long-term strategy has been to identify markets where the software has languished, and to raid the space with something built well ☟︎
assbot: Sure smart contracts may replace lawyers, but because they're 'smart' you can't break the law either, so you'll need fewer police.
danielpbarron: While this conversation was taking place, Mr. Troia's daughter was making noise while playing. This background distraction created just the setting needed for Mr. Troia to push his social engineering scheme.

nubbins`: that said, holding the stop sign all day is no fun. can't listen to headphones, gotta stand up!
nubbins`: asciilifeform:phun phact (also noted by al) - fella who holds the 'stop' sign all day makes 2x what a typical postdoc makes. <<< fella w/ the sign is also arguably providing more value for the $
asciilifeform: Obama: Maybe it's time for mandatory voting << mega-soviet-lulz

lobbes: http://www.cnn.com/2015/03/19/politics/obama-mandatory-voting/index.html << So dumb. Yes, let's force the uninformed masses to contribute to the problem

asciilifeform: mats: if you desperately need this, the popular hobbyist 'arm' dev board 'beaglebone' features a usb slave controller and comes with code example. wire up on the the gpio pins to a toggle switch and you have your drive.
asciilifeform: mats: USB drives with hw write switch << i do not know of any commercially-available items which fit this description (you will find switches on a few, but they are merely a 'polite request' to the host machine)
assbot: Logged on 10-01-2015 19:09:16; mircea_popescu: xiando: I thought I'd mention that openssl 1.0.1k apparently breaks bitcoin-core << this, of coruse, was discussed for the past few days :)
danielpbarron: OpenSSL 1.0.1 users should upgrade to 1.0.1k. << http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=10-01-2015#972210 ☝︎

danielpbarron: i think it's as simple as using 'dd' to write cd56.iso to the stick
danielpbarron: and it's nice to have the cd for machines that can't boot usb for whatever reason
funkenstein_: i had trouble with usb last i tried, i will try again
funkenstein_: is openbsd the only reason to have an optical drive? ☟︎
danielpbarron: it's the mac equiv of grub or something
danielpbarron: i think this only applies if you're installing on a mac
danielpbarron: for some reason this particular machine had it as 16 -- easily fixed by running newfs_msdos over it
danielpbarron: oh i also learned that "ofwboot" has to go into an MSDOS partition at the beginning of the drive, and it has to be FAT32 (not FAT16)
danielpbarron: also, the installed kernel can be used to install
danielpbarron: just seems counter intuitive seeing as how i'd normally have to specify the boot device before the kernel even loads
danielpbarron: now that i think about it, it's a feature
chetty: <danielpbarron> today i learned that OpenBSD will boot into the installer if it finds the install CD in the drive while booting//was that on purpose or an oops?
danielpbarron: today i learned that OpenBSD will boot into the installer if it finds the install CD in the drive while booting ☟︎

chetty: The Treasury further announced on Wednesday a new research initiative on digital currency technology, and said it would inject an additional 10 million pounds ($14.66 million) into the area. It will work with the British Standards Association to develop a set of standards that will protect consumers, it said.
funkenstein_: but they already convinced me of that with "papers please"
funkenstein_: well at least these folks are clear that they are nazis, we have warning
assbot: I was detained by CBSA, required to give passwords for all my devices. They wanted to "inspect" devices in some closed room. [1/5]
danielpbarron: some guy got held up in Canadian customs recently, had to type in his laptops password so they could "look for kiddie porn"
danielpbarron: oh idk if they use that word, but it seems to mean that if they think you know the key and refuse to tell them, you are a criminal and can be arrested as such
