trinque: is not, computer isn'
t trustworthy
mike_c: why not make it libraryized? if gpg was libraryized shit like this wouldn'
t be so hard
ascii_field: aha, i didn'
t. specifically in the interest of keeping it short and destroying redundancy
mike_c: so don'
t do it in your implementation
ascii_field: i will borrow a page from mircea_popescu and say 'i don'
t give a fuck HOW' it is done
trinque doesn'
t expect fabs on the battlefield, trying to consider what the simplest useful piece of hardware might be
trinque: what if it didn'
t verify the sig; it just verified that it looks like a sig, and hands off to something that can
mircea_popescu: ie, you put the filter node up, yet it can'
t be accessed because syn flood. irrespective of its function.
mircea_popescu: jurov consider the experimentally verified, and publicly at that, fact that ddos couldn'
t do any appreciabvle harm to qntra, or trilema.
ascii_field: or rather, doesn'
t end, but becomes a voluntary idiocy like running winblowz
jurov: mircea_popescu: i don'
t see any big obstacle against ddosing 1000 targets with slow connections vs. targeting one
mike_c: i haven'
t used this module much. not sure what sop is.
ascii_field struggles to think of even one useful tool that doesn'
t have a retarded usgized variant - e.g., gpg
mircea_popescu: github already trying this but it won'
t work for very good reasons.
mircea_popescu: "the xt is not a huge privacy hole because you can recompile it not to be. we're banking on thefact the fucktards in usg-zoo won'tanyway. we don'
t sign binaries but it could be done if needed except we're banking on idem"
ascii_field: what happened when tmsr didn'
t have a foundry?
ascii_field: it is very easy to become convinced that the only available item doesn'
t suck
mircea_popescu: trinque i woke up last night to the fact that email only persists because we havewn'

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1267767 << this is a CATASTROPHICALLY bad idea, because any attempt is simply asking for self-delusionary masamunification (sorry gabriel_laddel, but you know precisely what i mean.) -- this being, 'aha this is a turd, but WE made it and therefore doesn'
t stink and is somehow edible'
BingoBoingo: trinque: All email providers suck. I don'
t endorse fastmail, but I condemn it less than other options.
mircea_popescu: "oh but mp, if we make all messages 140 characters your advantages over us won'
t be so obvious"
ascii_field: doesn'
t mean quite same thing as 'happened' aha
ascii_field: (iirc the ru lease in cuba lapsed when they couldn'
t make rent in '90s)
mircea_popescu: but anyway : "racism" is exactly the derp word for sexual preference. the reason some people don'
t like other people is purely sexual.
mircea_popescu: and we probably won'
t bother to answer, and they'll derp more, in their children, and so it goes.
mircea_popescu: obviously if people weren'
t schmucks we could have nice things.
mircea_popescu: i didn'
t boither measuring early, who the fuck cares, but i would guess it did 10k an hour or some shit

http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1267274 << gabriel_laddel: you are speaking mostly to folks who haven'
t grasped lisp. sorta like showing a modern army base to medieval commander - he will not be able to see past it being 'a terrible castle, where the fuck are the walls and moats'
ascii_field: 'You see, not only are they trying to get us to pay them for using a few ink splotches, but as it turns out, the ink splotches don'
t belong to them in the first place! Our cover artist happened to keep meticulous records (probably not something they anticipated) and traced the source of the ink splotches to a Finnish artist...'
punkman: ascii_field, I wouldn'
t think fake capacity numbers are a problem, but yeah I guess you gotta write $x GB of data to it that can'
t be compressed away
☟︎ jurov: that it isn'
t such a scam as the price indicates and can probably bear the blockchain
ascii_field: jurov: my experiments led me to the conclusion that usb (at least usb2) won'
t cut it, period.
jurov: sooo...an scam-cheap "KingDian" SSD came today from shenzhen, i have proceeded to test it with "badblocks -b 4096 -w -
t random"
shinohai: Shouldn'
t you use "validateaddress" instead?
shinohai: I added an alias so I don'
t have to type all that every time but it works for me
shinohai: and afaik rotor doesn'
t use bitcoin-cli
VariaVarietatis: point me to how to test my rotor is working? It seems to be able to getblockinfo but not getbalance using bitcoin-cli can'
t seem to find anything in the logs, mostly due to not knowing that to search for.
shinohai: Not like they can'
t or won'
t just make it legal/illegal on a whim at the stroke of a pen.
funkenstein_: guy says: "can'
t find gold, i dig it up every year to check".
shinohai: Kinda like BTC, if you don'
t own private keys you don'
t own anything.

☟︎ punkman: what is 'sane browser' ? << must render HTML+CSS, with pictures. I don'
t need webfonts/flash/silverlight/java/webgl. A scripting language that doesn'
t suck would be nice, so I can perhaps write some userscripts for certain websites. Small amounts of signed javascript might be okay.
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 05:53:08; mircea_popescu: you won'
t have a leakless pipe, ever.
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 05:04:15; trinque: BingoBoingo: I would say mr gabriel_laddel has it, that all syntaxes can be done within the lisp system, and simultaneously you find that the vast majority aren'
t necessary
Naphex: punkman: it doesn'
t but it's a bussiness pick
punkman: flash doesn'
t belong in sane browser though
mircea_popescu: maybe this is retarded, but, wouldn'
t you be better off adding a slight delay, converting to something like gifv on the fly and relying on html5 ?
mircea_popescu: (in the year 72015 in the sense that it can be mathematially proven it won'
t happen before. but who knows, maybe after. patience little wanobi!)
Naphex: mircea_popescu: oh man browsers still can'
t render the same thing properly :o
gabriel_laddel: Now, I don'
t *know* exactly what particular sexpr will 'click' for my program, so I'll write a few versions, find something I like and then distribute it.
mircea_popescu: i still manage to distribute trilema to people who don'
t program
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: and wrt "hacking around until something clicks", this is the only way I know how to work on UIs and other 'finicky' programs? You certainly don'
t distribute this to friends who don'
t program.
punkman: the save-as button I have, does work in many occasions. but mostly doesn'

mircea_popescu:
http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1267314 << for the record, ascribing purpose to phenomena is basically animism 2.0, and just as medieval as the other thing. for all you know gauss was not "a bit of a coward", and your p[rojection into the future whebn discussing einstein more indicative of an anachronistic mind than some sort of valuable intuition. for all you know gauss just didn'

t have to be a one size fits all. but if your software can'
t be built, your software doesn'
t exist. and it is still upon you to explain how you expect users to use your thing - nobody is going to go do the guesswork of "what the author might have meant", and ESPECIALLY no sane person should ever guess what "obvious" means for anyone else
punkman: gabriel_laddel: yeah, don'
t be ted nelson :P
BingoBoingo: <trinque> spamassassin raping my VPS << I don'
t find email important enough to not outsource
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> whatever, the point is that the structure is available for me to make arbitrary computations against << FYIAD, I don'
t need structure: I eat, hang, and burn
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> "I don'
t want to see people who cite XYZ" << No who cites XYZ is how you make rope to hang
gabriel_laddel: it will evolve out of whatever the "networking" substrate ends up being and tbh, I don'
t see what the big deal is?
gabriel_laddel: trinque: I have a listing of programs associated with my PGP identity, you can make references to them, and people will be able to see them (or not) based on my trust relationship with them. Your "references" can be any arbitary computation, buut probably some standards will evolve (e.g., we don'
t check sexprs who pass some test of being a plist of the structure (:name ... :version ...)).
BingoBoingo: <gabriel_laddel> I don'
t see how you'll be able to reference things on WoTnet further than "the joe I know with this pub key" << Publication. Paper and film only have the problem that they are slow and take too much volume for their information density. Why should machines not offer a path at least as safe.
trinque: mircea_popescu: indeed! I don'
t think gabriel_laddel sees what hypertext is
