mircea_popescu: nubbins`: i suspect smoothie from the forums is kinda stupid << generally known
as such. his behaviour throughout was, to quote hanbot "nothing short of bizarre"
nubbins`: "Professional carpenters never, ever, EVER smoke in the shop. It's an incredible fire hazard
as well
as a personal danger since stimulants can increase the risk of slippage on a power tool. My father was an avid chain smoker and would never allow tobacco in his work area."
ben_vulpes: perhaps better would be a thing that connects to the network, slurps out unconfirmed transactions and poops that back out
as the mining input...
mircea_popescu: not
as to racism in any sense, but
as to why it's a bad idea
nubbins`: i probably would actually pay upwards of $100 for that piece,

decimation: re: baltimore: www.prrac.org/pdf/mohl.pdf "Over the next few years, RAM continued to protest the "victimization" of black communities in the path of the interstate, which purposefully seemed designed to take "the heart out of one of the most stable communities in Baltimore." Facing the removal of 10,000 blacks who lived in the path of the east-west expressway, RAM activists challenged the highway engineers who “view people

as a whole
mircea_popescu: merely disguises itself

assbot: Logged on 21-01-2015 01:41:29; asciilifeform: speaking of diamonds (specifically of the synthetic variety), one possible observation here - not concerning the idiocy of the wood thing

mircea_popescu: "Frank Sinatra had a terrible temper,
as shown by his irrational hatred of Barbara Streisand"
mircea_popescu: It looks like he made his goal in life to be the most detestable person in the internet. (Methinks he is still nowhere near that rank, though.) However he is a precious resource,

nubbins`: like... dude, are you even having the same conversation
as us?
punkman: "In some conceivable but unlikely scenarios, you might see incoming transactions
as having 6+ confirmations when the transactions are actually invalid"
nubbins`: but that would definitely qualify
as "getting out of hand"
mircea_popescu: you're talking of ambiguous things
as if they were specified.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: mitch runs a little coding shop, they do some web design

ben_vulpes: i discovered recently that "baby" carrots aren't so much "lathed"
as they are knocked around in a conical abrasive vessel
mircea_popescu: think of it
as "chain of pointers" and now tell me who the fuck doesn't flunk the idiot that actually keeps an enumeration array for the chain
mircea_popescu: this is nonsense of the first order, an utter antipattern, and iof they weren't stupid

mircea_popescu: jurov weren't you proposing that *somehow* there's ambiguous outputs
as the entire point of what you were saying ?
ben_vulpes: but you're saying that if i cook up a transaction that has 1march29th
as an input, the miners should actually rewrite that to use 1march15th
as an input?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes is this "bitcoin
as it should be" or "bitcoin

mircea_popescu: <mircea_popescu> jurov i thought we were discussing bitcoin

as a hack. <<

mircea_popescu: kakobrekla let me put it another way : the miner output of a block is actually defined by the code
as "everything left over once you substract the sum output from the sum input"
mircea_popescu: there's no such thing
as "veryinfing a transaction that was already included"
jurov: you seem to imagine they got poured into the blocks
as scraps of gold into a solid brick
mircea_popescu: jurov so basdically you're talking of a degenerate case of my model, which sure,
as a convenience can be implemented by my model
as well.
jurov: but
as 0conf transaction can be checked against other 0conf transactions (remmeber satoshidice?)
mircea_popescu: well the block 3 tx i named
as "proposed" is a 0 conf.
mircea_popescu: jurov i thought we were discussing bitcoin
as a spec, rather than bitcoin
as a hack.
mircea_popescu: there's no such thing
as "a valid transaction". merely, a valid block.
jurov: mircea_popescu: but it also means it will relay all shit imaginable, you regard it
as convenience otherwise?
ben_vulpes: "a single machine acting
as a full node" << conformal has yet to answer any questions re: what the specs of this "machine" were.
ben_vulpes: oh
as if its even a question at this point
diametric: asciilifeform: in context of the wood dong guy, he could vary height with the intensity
as well, but it becomes really, really apparently its lasered because the edges are always charred
mircea_popescu: nubbins` well,

mircea_popescu: "The second-system effect (also known
as second-system syndrome) is the tendency of small, elegant, and successful systems to have elephantine, feature-laden monstrosities
as their successors due to inflated expectations."
mircea_popescu: yes, he is not
as powerful, or moreover, power works differently in foss.

punkman: "He also started to charge BitTalk Media at a rate of 80 GBP per hour for the time required to respond to messages and emails that asked for clarifications and actions regarding these company assets. Even more, he was paying himself for the time that was required to pay himself. All these actions lead towards considering him

mircea_popescu: ie, you won't get a conviction on it straight ; if you're also prosecuting other indictments it can either blow up, ruin your other counts or at most succeed for no benefit,
as it'll get rolled into the other counts.
mircea_popescu: "In the year of '61, we left our native land, 'cause we could not bend our spirits to the tyrant's stern command. So we rallied 'round our Buckner, while our hearts were sad and sore, to offer our blood for freedom
