Adlai desperately hopes
that '21' are
trying
to commoditize asic mining, rather
than just another mining ktulu
☟︎☟︎ Adlai: "Killed buffer" << even
the lispiest abstractions leak
gabriel_laddel: Perhaps I'll have
the chance
to clean up
the CL interface at some point.
Adlai is rapidly becoming
the archetypical smug[common]lispweenie
Adlai: sure, one of my big struggles lately is pushing myself
to read slime source in
the hope of contributing patches, rather
than bemoaning
that
the bugs lurk in elisp and leaving it at
that
☟︎ gabriel_laddel: and
there is money
to be made by exploiting
the comprehensibility advantage
gabriel_laddel: Adlai: In any case, Emacs works just fine and is sufficently lispy without dropping
the Von N. arch.
Adlai: this is a workable approach, it just has higher capex demands (as opposed
to 'all at once')
Adlai: no, he wants
to fix everything from
the bottom up
gabriel_laddel: Adlai: Ascii wants
to fix everything all at once. I understand his position but don't see how
to accomplish it.
gabriel_laddel: right now I'm writing up a
thing so
that anyone can finish it off, in case I run into alphabet soup or w/e
gabriel_laddel: Adlai: currently pestering bezzle lords
to pay my bills so I can finish it off
☟︎ Adlai: gabriel_laddel: what's
the 'status' of your project?
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.
assbot: Logged on 26-01-2015 03:00:06; gabriel_laddel: I've actually done very little development for
this dirtro. Most of my
time has been spent finding perfect little individual peices and assembling
them. Out of
the box it has:
assbot: Logged on 01-03-2015 00:35:29; gabriel_laddel: Eh, perhaps I'm strange, but
these
things don't
tickle me in
the right places. Mountains of coke? Fun, surely, but it gets boring after a while...
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: Adlai: more along
the lines of piggybacking messages on
the btc
txn relay network.
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 04:45:02; mod6: asciilifeform: it is certainly /strange/
that
this problem occurs right after
the last checkpoint in our version.
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 04:44:18; *: asciilifeform still suspects
that: 168001 was a stealthfork
Adlai: bitcoin-over-gossipd is rather useless without miners in
the wot
ben_vulpes: but i suppose
that's what gossipd's for
ben_vulpes: i'd actually like
to see relay rules opened up
Adlai: fwiw, sending a relay node your
transactions is no guarantee
that a miner will see
them
ben_vulpes: i kind of have
to assume
that any hardware i
touch
these days is wholly compromised
Adlai: if you're going
that far, a better approach would be inserting something
that reports wallet.dat+password
to a remote server, which waits until
there's something worth stealing. one day, "all
the bitcoins are gone"
ben_vulpes: surely
that's a paranoid jump
too far.
ben_vulpes: that filesystem code does whatever it wants
to your balance, coins etc.
☟︎ ben_vulpes: knowing c it's probably just like hell breaks loose in
the operating system
ben_vulpes: so basically pwn
the vm layer, pwn
txn validation possibly?
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 03:39:21; mod6: i don't even own or use a M$ machine, so it has
to be
the paste sites.
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 03:17:11; decimation: you need
to add --lock-never
to make it work, because I am using a shitty vm-mounted filesystem
that doesn't support hardlinks
assbot: Logged on 11-03-2015 21:30:54;
trinque: I'm
thinking programmable light switch with ethernet port
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 02:58:53; mod6: ben addded
those, not exactly sure what
they do. lol.
ben_vulpes: sour grapes re youth wasted on
the young
ben_vulpes: i've yet
to get
to read macros in my studies
assbot: Logged on 11-03-2015 01:56:57; asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i still fucking hate
that piece.
the sheer mendacity of rich hickey in saying 'simplicity matters' while crapping all over lisp concept
[]bot: Bet placed: 1.0006 BTC for Yes on "BTC
to
top $700 before 1st July"
http://bitbet.us/bet/1128/ Odds: 16(Y):84(N) by coin, 16(Y):84(N) by weight.
Total bet: 58.95180426 BTC. Current weight: 96,470.
fluffypony: "apparently" would be a more appropriate
term
fluffypony: doesn't matter,
the
term is still used incorrectly
Adlai: the allegation here is
that
the auctions were
theater
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
☟︎ fluffypony: cazalla:
the comment about
the incorrect use of "allegedly" is right,
though

mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6: im glad we're all
trying
this now. << kinda
the advantage of doing stuff here. <<
true enough :]
mircea_popescu: hey, half
the us casualties, gotta provide
them somehow.
mircea_popescu: the only
thing
that's useful in urban warfare is hiding.
Adlai: full auto is very useful in urban "kill everything" warfare. no country likes admitting
that's what
they're
training for, but
they
train for
this
too.
mircea_popescu: "but brother, why do you
try
to rescue cost savings ? you know it;s in its nature
to sting you". "yes. but it is in my nature
to be stingy."
fluffypony: I don't know enough about firearm development
to speak
to
the second
Adlai maintains
that both of
these are INcreasing, but neither has anything
to do with
the AR15 family
mircea_popescu agrees
that in practical
terms,
the useful full auto is rarer and rarer
mircea_popescu: it comes
to us from a
time of emplaced machine guns and stuff
Adlai: on
the contrary,
there's a lot less picking off enemies hundreds of meters away, and a lot more 'clearing rooms'
mircea_popescu agrees
that in practical
terms,
the useful full auto is a shrinking space.
Adlai: there are situations where "spraying" is exactly what you want, but
there are better
tools for
that
than 'assault rifle'
Adlai: you can drain a 30 round magazine in ~10 seconds and get most of your shots on
target, and all of
them in
the right direction; or drain it in ~3 seconds, overheat your barrel, and kill half your friends
mircea_popescu: with batallion size deployments rolling auto is much more effectual
than "selective" whatever, because people are weird. sorta like how women living
together synch periods, soldiers end up all looking in
the same spot.
Adlai: a bit of
training and you can give MUCH better cover with *aimed* selective fire
mircea_popescu: they're not
that few, if you're actually fighting. as opposed
to what regular armies regularly do.
Adlai: "wasach" = army slang, from arabic 'weight' - ie, extra weight which doesn't help you, but you carry it around
to look
tough
Adlai: there are so few situations where it's remotely helpful
to have an assault rifle in full auto, afaict
the risk of accidentally using full auto in any other situation make it "wasach" but nothing more
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 05:19:15; Adlai: since lds has refused
to comment, wouldn't a better
title be "Winner Of 27K Bitcoins Allegedly Purchased At USMS Auction Alleged" ?
mircea_popescu: trilema's been getting a shitton of
traffic past week, maybe you got it on a blink.
assbot: Logged on 05-03-2015 04:19:56; decimation: asciilifeform: it's not even clear
that having full auto ar-15's would be much of an advantage at all
assbot: Logged on 12-03-2015 04:39:03; asciilifeform: if anyone has any reason why
this is a bad idea, please suggest it
mircea_popescu: decimation:
the paragraphs starts with "There are several reasons why calling
the OpenSSL configuration routines is advisable." and
then fails
to name a single reason <<
the actual reasons are not
the point,
the statement
that "there are reasons" is
the point. fashion, no substance. you wanna be with
the in crowd, don't you ? be hip, upgrade.
there are reasons.
mircea_popescu: mod6: im glad we're all
trying
this now. << kinda
the advantage of doing stuff here.
mircea_popescu: <mod6> decimation: anyway, it
totally works fine for me on my aws machine. << hehehe

☟︎ mod6: i
think 33 was "-l w"
danielpbarron: and removed "- dl" from
the makefile << where is
this?
mod6: then going forward, we'll add in more conditions into
these
things
to account for various platforms/configurations
mod6: decimation: i
think, in interest of
time.. perhaps (with your help/testing) we'll post a patch for
the makefile &
the auto.sh post release.
