thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: re "standardization without permission" << it looks like bastardization. who
the fuck says, "Security should not be
the defining feature of a service". Does
this roughly
translate
to: "CSS everywhere."
thestringpuller: "The CCSS is an open standard, born out of
the belief
that security should not be
the defining feature of your service." << Why?!?!?
mircea_popescu: when
they're done doing
that
they can probably get back
to riding
their wooden horses or w/e nine year olds do when not monkeying
the adults.
mircea_popescu: thestringpuller
this isn't "permissionless innovation",
this is "standardization without permission".
thestringpuller: from:
http://blog.cryptoconsortium.org/contributing-to-the-ccss/ "There are many ways in which you can help contribute
to
the CryptoCurrency Security Standard. While security experts have an obvious avenue for contributing,
the standard also needs help from graphic designers, language
translators, and proofreaders
too, just
to name a few."
this is what permissionless innovation looks like in da infancy

they don't
tell you when
they bring you

mircea_popescu: incidentally, "bbs where every user runs his own nntp server" is a) a better implementation of irc, which is a better implementation of bbs, which is dead
tech and b) exactly where gossipd is going.
mircea_popescu: it's kinda incredible
to me
that
the entire intellectual production of
the usg crowd is limited
to merely rehashing points debunked within a week or
two of
the "controversy".
mircea_popescu: hahaha it was just pointed out
to me
that if you google for pretty much anything
to do with btc b-a is probably in
the results, and if you click over
to images
there's definitely some b-a ladies in
there.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform wait, isn't
that HOW you measure resistence in
the first place ?
mircea_popescu takes advantage of b-a
to refresh his electronics knowledge :D
mircea_popescu: is
there some way
to connect a resistor in an unpowered, unshorted circuit so
that i can't measure it without unmounting it ?
mircea_popescu: can be done easy enough and undestructively, just
turn
the machine off and pop its cover
mircea_popescu: well, one way
to find out, of course, would be
to get some new laptops/handhelds and measure
their resistors.
mircea_popescu: there's a definite age gap. kids born pre 1990 are more different from kids born after
than slave owners from slaves in
the deep south cca 1790
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
the ham radio folks use older gear maybe ?
mircea_popescu: out of
the millions of redditards generously employed
to do
tech support, millions are in "tech support stories"
talking about how idiot customers are
danielpbarron: technically i have
two of
them "running" -- albeit with very nasty "through
the mud" shortcuts
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if
that's where it's at, danielpbarron has a point. gotta get it running, somehow.
davout: asciilifeform: what was
that?
mircea_popescu: so
then it's more like, "can't get an os for pogo, we like
to believe it can be done nevertheless" ?
mircea_popescu: so
the breakdown is
that you know how and he doesn't an' you're not
telling him ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform so what's
the situation here, can't get an os for pogo ?
danielpbarron: i am
trying
to come up with solutions
that I myself might be capable of achieving; I'm not aware of anyone else who is working on
this
thing
kakobrekla: <danielpbarron> (NOTE: OpenBSD can not be re-exported from
the US once it has entered
the US. < im sure you are familiar with 'pgpi scanning project'
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron:
The signify
thing depends on libsodium for however good it is along with probably other
things
danielpbarron: everything i learn about openbsd makes me like it more
than before
BingoBoingo: danielpbarron:
They use
that for code/binaries, because GPG is GPL and in
their distribution it is license unacceptable by
their standards
ben_vulpes: but
the planet's not choking under human smog or anything
ben_vulpes: this is
the most unbelievably gorgeous spring i've ever seen here
danielpbarron: (NOTE: OpenBSD can not be re-exported from
the US once it has entered
the US. Because of
this,
take care NOT
to get
the distribution from an FTP server in
the US if you are outside of Canada and
the US.)

davout: yea, what i understood
too, coming nonetheless
davout: danielpbarron: "at least debian doesn't have all
that systemd crap" <<< i was under
the impression it was coming
to debian
too
danielpbarron: the blue model is perfect for
this purpose, just add SD card of any size
nubbins`: cazalla:worse,
TaT masquerades as bitcoinassets on it and is a mod
to boot <<< ...
nubbins`: gabriel_laddel:Does anyone
take issue with me describing
the lordship as "the peerage" and #-assets as "earth's premiere commercial forum"? <<< ...
☟︎ danielpbarron: at least debian doesn't have all
that systemd crap
danielpbarron: when
that static build of bitcoind is ready, i'll
try
to compile it for pogo and see if it runs on debian
danielpbarron: even using
the sd card for os << not necessary;
the whole
thing can go on
the same hard drive as
the blockchain
