fluffypony: and I didn't become a certified anything :-P
mircea_popescu: obviously you don't know the basics of webcoin.
shinohai: http://www.coindesk.com/quiz-do-you-know-the-basics-of-bitcoin/ <<< For so,e reason I can't see this
mircea_popescu: except those schmucks don't have friends in the printer house.

cazalla: configure.in didn't have a line with AM_USE_UNITTESTCPP to comment out either
cazalla: i wouldn't even know tbh
mircea_popescu: cazalla betcha you didn't do the export lines like it's said in the recipe
mircea_popescu: you don't understand how the world works.
asciilifeform: can't say i am
asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: i have some but don't know where to buy it

mircea_popescu: cool cause if i don't manage to get this old screens recipe replicated we're sol without screens.
cazalla: and couldn't get it running on ubuntu last i tried
cazalla: mircea_popescu, don't have a client to do so (nuked windows drive with the win ver)
trinque: and it didn't work.
mircea_popescu: eh, forcing people do things isn't the best strategy anyway.
adlai: (isn't this how you accomplish things in the Brave New Economy?)
trinque: k then I don't support the format of that yet
asciilifeform: 'Chances are that your bank already forked C++ because they didn't like its open nature, and you now have to pay millions every year to the one guy who knows where all the libraries are.' << ahahahaha this is a thing of beauty
asciilifeform: if your book didn't come with then, get yer money back
shinohai: Kinda reads to me "We need schmucks to test our shit, but don't want to waste money on resources. So you guys do it for us, but don't come crying to us if it borks your pc"
mircea_popescu: Codename Frontier, the initial live release of Ethereum consist of Geth, the Command Line Interface written in Go, and nothing else. At the moment, Geth only includes a CPU miner, and the team is testing a GPU miner branch, but this won't be part of Frontier."

mircea_popescu: shouldn't it be Bit-coin ?
BingoBoingo: What coach doesn't ask a player to give it their all in the game? http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=20-09-2015#1279985 ☝︎
punkman: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-09-2015#1279465 << the reply couldn't be more lulzy if you tried https://archive.is/qXAPE ☝︎
cazalla: i still don't understand how or why tiny boxed photos with lense flare and filters is more popular than a proper photo.. could normal photos be just as social?
asciilifeform: it doesn't hurt to have it. for the call graphs.
asciilifeform: editor doesn't give concordance
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think while the txn are verified serially maybe the memory for entire block is allocated somewhere ; haven't actually had someone dig into the code for this angle./
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i can actually unwedge it. i am satisfied the problem here is a subtle memory issue (not directly related to the bdb locks thing). specifically, to verify block 367851 bitcoind needs a certain amount of CONTIGUOUS memory. but it doesn't know this.
asciilifeform: we can't have the thing occupying the entirety of ram.
assbot: Logged on 11-08-2015 13:36:02; asciilifeform: shinohai: see, i'd post a full recipe and signed binaries today, but we don't quite yet have a pogo-capable - that is, non-ramguzzling - bitcoind

mircea_popescu: then again, no velocity was ever a scalar either, doesn't prevent cars from displaying odometers.
asciilifeform: it isn't a scalar.
asciilifeform: but isn't this because a sandwich cost 100,000 btc at the time?
mircea_popescu: eh. tell you what, 4 years ago, when most of the current "experts" didn't know how to spell the name, the guy was hit by the first targetted attack, alongside some others.
mircea_popescu: i don't think the guy's toxic, just, acts the imbecile on occasion.
mircea_popescu: i couldn't have it better if i planned it.
asciilifeform: 'the history you didn't know' (tm)
assbot: Xiaoxing Xi isn't a Chinese spy after all | Qntra ... ( http://bit.ly/1OHsLLJ )
mircea_popescu: "In fact it's embarrassing, because everyone who isn't relevant and knows it has an automatic grudge against you." <<< so ? the flailing is amusing.
mircea_popescu: no there isn't. that's the thing with suicide bombing : no more questions.
mircea_popescu: a dysfunctional legal system makes suicide bombing a necessity. you don't like that, fix the fucking legal system.
asciilifeform: ne who isn't relevant and knows it has an automatic grudge against you. Since CS research is quite competitive, evolution has its way, and relevance goes the way of the snake's legs.'
asciilifeform: st, by turning it into a form of mathematics. Math outcompetes creative programming in the funding process, simply because it appears to be more rigorous. It is more rigorous, and it generates a longer, deeper river of more impressive publications. And, because its area is nominally applied, it doesn't have to compete with the real mathematicians over in "algorithms," who would clean the bureaucrats' clocks in five minutes.'
asciilifeform: i just don't get it.
assbot: Logged on 19-09-2015 22:55:01; phf: presumably it's either glibc and small binaries or no glibc and the entire stdlib attached to the thing. ocaml at least doesn't do any sort of "tree shaking"
phf: *didn't

assbot: Logged on 19-09-2015 22:32:40; phf: asciilifeform: phf: they all have fuckin' ~huge~ binaries so far as i'm concerned << i don't think i was too picky at the time, i.e. cmucl dumps 20mb images, and my main concern was audio latency anyway. oh i also used mlkit for that reason, it uses a combination of frame based memory management and gc, so you can have realtime guarantees.

shinohai: I don't necessarily have to make them public, just wanted to put them somewhere so I could connect if need be.
phf: i wouldn't have posted otherwise, but for the recent calculator discussions. all the talk about "limited edition retro appeal" in stark contrast to b-a considerations
shinohai: btw excellent trilema post mircea_popescu. I don't have the greatest understanding of such things but that certainly makes sense.
shinohai: tl;dr I don't know this shit but it is critical to get people to adopt my scamcoin. SO help plox, thx bye.
ben_vulpes doesn't understand anything about how the world works
mircea_popescu: the only problem with it is that it's a profession, and you don't have a clue how it works.
pete_dushenski: 'many economist believe that inflation doesn't erode your savings'
pete_dushenski: japs were thinking 'not my bezzlars, don't care where they come from or where they're going, just that they're active rather than passive'

mircea_popescu: i was discussing women and blowjobs wasn't i.
assbot: Logged on 19-09-2015 14:50:33; mircea_popescu: i also can't believe the butthurt "augur" people that kept derping on reddit about how mean bitbet is actually are built atop this shit and somehow still expect anyone to take them seriously.
mircea_popescu: or if you don't like gm, apple is 59,026,600/5.70 bn = 0.010355544
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it doesn't.
mircea_popescu: in what sense does this make sense ? you don't even need to have finance experience to notice this nonsense.
asciilifeform: popular explanations range from 'nah they can't ban it, with what will we pay the mexican strawberry pickers' to 'it will come any day now'
asciilifeform: shinohai: l0l it wasn't just my doing
shinohai: meanwhile, thank you asciilifeform for giving us a bitcoind that isn't a horribly bloated p.o.s.
asciilifeform: the other thing is, i was briefly astonished at how broken the thing is, but then remembered an old mircea_popescu lemma which leads to 'it must necessarily be broken' - i haven't the link handy, but this was an article where 'usg dare not safely use a working bitcoin or even similar item, because it will begin to warp around it'
mircea_popescu: 't been watching the show back in 2012ish)
asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=19-09-2015#1279559 << i don't see any traces of lisp in this atrocity ☝︎

shinohai: I'm still rofl from the guy who sent all his coin to a contract the other day and now can't recover it.
assbot: Can't compile a contract - Ethereum ... ( http://bit.ly/1Yo0bU1 )
mircea_popescu: i can't fucking believe there's 40 btc on its survival.
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu> <kakobrekla> how the latter flows from it < dishonest software does not require honest hardware the way i see it << more or less unrelated. dishonest accountand doesn't require dishonest FED nor vice-versa < mno. what another lie to a liar?

mircea_popescu: you're a scientist aren't you ?
asciilifeform doesn't zoophilia
mircea_popescu: they stop, don't they ?
asciilifeform: very easy when you aren't walking the line of starvation.
mircea_popescu: yaya, why OTHERS don't do shit is beyond you.
asciilifeform: why ~they~ don't run off, is beyond me.
mircea_popescu: didn't you just say you don't like yest ?
trinque: asciilifeform: that just isn't done
asciilifeform: trinque: it melts my brain that someone with actual hold of, say, $100M u.s., wouldn't just pack off to timisoara or buenos aires
mircea_popescu: not that he didn't want to. but, old men are cowardly, regardless of what they were in their youth.
mircea_popescu: and for that matter notice that stalin also didn't move against beria
mircea_popescu: but this is me, and i don't live there.
asciilifeform: aaand because it isn't a house if there is shitting on the floor happening.
asciilifeform: it doesn't work.
asciilifeform: but my 'it' doesn't work. because it is the answer of the shipwrecked sailor re: what is best in life - 'food! water!'
asciilifeform: for my education, demonstrate how bush doesn't 'have it'
