_popescu: it's sorta incredible that the fiatists who need infinite growth all want to cut their own throats with reduced consumption while tmsr~, who doesn't want anything to do with infinite growth, is buying and consuming like it's going out of style << actually, best estimate i can get puts TMSR GDP growth for 2015 somewhere around 450-500%. that's not 4.5-5%. it's not 45-5
princessnell: hey mircea

mod6: i don't have tinyscheme-genesis in my patches dir. just shiva 1
_of

_of
_2 + the shiva fix.
mod6: shiva did expose a defect in v99996 of V (line 420), in one of the graphing subroutines (add
_desc
_src
_files). the rest is fine. locally added simple conditinal check to see if the node is empty seems to have fixed it.
thestringpuller: but when you do php f
_open It's all "file can't be opened for writing permission denied"
ascii_butugychag: i thought mircea
_popescu taught us that they quit making worthy officers some time around 1800
ascii_butugychag: mircea
_popescu: maslennikov actually discusses at great length why 'GOST' cipher, which is a cruddy knockoff of DES, was adopted
ascii_butugychag: this'd be a neato use for mircea
_popescu's network of little birds, incidentally
mircea_popescu: ascii
_butugychag incidentally, if you'll excuse the naive approach : couldn't in principle any p-and-q scheme be made to have a mutating p-and-q ?
mircea_popescu: ""Many people who haven't thought it through have sung its praises over the years, mostly because they got seduced by the sound theoretic basis. Blum-Blum-Shub has two of the three flaws that DUAL
_EC
_DRBG has: it's slow, and you can't prove it secure.

_field listened (in car) to an infuriatingly zimmermanish interview with jon callas (former pgp, now 'silent circle' garbage)
ascii_butugychag: ben
_vulpes wanted some warez, and i realized that we haven't the most elementary provisions for warez
jurov: mircea
_popescu: i wait for deedbot to accept files and *detached signatures*, no dpaste braindamage
trinque: ascii
_butugychag: in that form
mircea_popescu: hey jurov phf ascii
_butugychag everyone else with an interest : let's get a format for bot-ml-etc interoperability ?
assbot: Logged on 02-02-2016 14:14:45; mircea
_popescu: trinque so not with the intent to pressure you, but : is deedbot patch insertion likely to come online soon or should i re-learn how to do it via email ?

_popescu: the role of libraries is exactly like the role of the fridge in the supermarket : "here's this capsule of other people's thinking so you don't have to"
assbot: Logged on 02-02-2016 14:03:19; mircea
_popescu: or you think bhagwan chowdhry & the merry bunch actually have some sort of loyalty, or even any sort of conception of "US" ?

_popescu: BingoBoingo sadly, the alf totally dominates that field. the bundy's dun have what it takes. not even remotely.
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Nah, but mebbe the inspire the kid that did. 4 people left in Free Oregon lead by kid named Fry. Fry seems like he's staying a while since FBI killed his friend.
BingoBoingo: mircea
_popescu: Under foreign management, under the Bundy's, however

_popescu: so basically polarbeard here's the thing : i considered signing this, and i will consider signing the next version. as it is however i won't do that, because a) not all errors have both flags set ; b) occasional ' in error message ; c) occasional losing a valuable datapoint (such as the hash above) or missing on adding a useful one (nStart).

_popescu: polarbeard + return error(SBLK "chain tip %s not found in the block index", hashBestChain.ToString().c
_str()); << any reason this has only one flag ?
mircea_popescu: + return error(SBLK "pow %s work below minimum (%u)", hash.ToString().c
_str(), nBits); << bunches of these.
mircea_popescu: + return error(SBLK "block %s doesn't match index", GetHash().ToString().c
_str()); << it really doesn't work if you don't use the flags!
adlai: ;;later tell ben
_vulpes see what happens when commenters can't find the comment box!
adlai: mircea
_popescu: biggest derpitude is that we're discussing on irc a reddit conversation about a tweet linking to a blog

☟︎ mircea_popescu: ben
_vulpes made for some interesting discussion at any rate.
adlai: ben
_vulpes: fwiw i still believe it's a bad idea to discourage this kind of "speculative soft fork"... it makes it easier for experimenters to put their money where their mouth is, and puts on a good show for "conservatives" who remain in plain good old Bitcoin
adlai: ben
_vulpes: did you see my comment? this could be implemented today by miners already and you wouldn't have known of it
ben_vulpes: mircea
_popescu: it is a very interesting proposal.
mod6: genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea
_popescu, mod6, trinque)
mod6: i thought ben
_vulpes made a lisp deal?
jurov: ben
_vulpes do you intend to maintain v.py? *all* its unittests break from several causes
adlai: mircea
_popescu: apologies for retardation, i may have just posted my comment twice

_popescu: i like raid5, among other reasons, because it makes life very painful for boobytrapped hdd supplier
assbot: Logged on 01-02-2016 23:32:54; pete
_dushenski: curious if asciilifeform is buying sandisk, samsung, intel(!), amd, or other ssd atm.

_dushenski: BingoBoingo: mhm. can use mounting bracket too if you don't feel like taping it on. i guess the 2.5" size meets the 90% of buyers using it for laptops and the 10% of buyers using it for desktops aren't excluded either.

_butugychag> why the fuck provision for rewriting bits that will ~never~ be rewritten. <<< ironically, cheaper to save on hdd than on the mask rom. yet.

_butugychag: having it with somebody who understands nothing of how his civilization is put together, to whom flashlight, pc, boeing, are equally magical - is a snore.
assbot: Logged on 01-02-2016 23:38:18; BingoBoingo: pete
_dushenski: Sandisk, AMD, etc is all Samsung parts
