mike_c: https://freenode.net/faq.shtml - see "what is the recommended way to set up my irc nickname" #5 & #6
PeterL: oh, a second nick grouped to scoopbot?
punkman: no I mean to get a cloak, you need to have an alternate nick grouped in the account
PeterL: so the bot should be logged in under my account?
punkman: you need to group a second nick for it first
PeterL: oh, how do I do that?
bounce: as in, with a cloak saying to bug you if it misbehaves
bounce: a nickserv account would be decent, though
gribble: Rating entry successful. Your rating for user ninjashogun has changed from -3 to -3.
PeterL: do I need to make a grible ident for it?
kakobrekla: PeterL is that thing registered with nickserv?
PinkPosixPXE: so I just kept watching the discussions, and kept up with what was going on
PinkPosixPXE: I was going to speak up sooner, but I didn't want to commit/promise anything, when I was so busy
kakobrekla: well color me surprised then.
PinkPosixPXE: but the last week has been really busy
PinkPosixPXE: the idscussions around the patches, and testing, bitcoin foundation, git signing, etc.
PinkPosixPXE: kakobrekla: I followed much of it for the past few weeks
PinkPosixPXE: thanks jurov, perfect.. wanted to see where things were at..
kakobrekla: PinkPosixPXE were you actually following the debate?
PinkPosixPXE: I can also help you guys figure out the gpg git key signing if that's still a debacle or issue for you, but I'll have to ask more questions, and find out the scope/desires first, before we could dive into that. But I'm happy to help throw my extra cpu cycles at this stuff :)
kakobrekla: its true
gribble: Rating entry successful. Your rating for user PinkPosixPXE has changed from 1 to 1.
punkman: jurov, ah yeah that might be a good way to duct-tape this together
PinkPosixPXE: kakobrekla: well it's all that + full time syseng work.. so .. been trying to find time and get rid of the unimportant ones
jurov: punkman i can create another mailing list for that
The20YearIRCloud: Looks like we'll close on our next bank funding round this week
punkman: would qntra like to sponsor a WP plugin that accepts signed posts and puts them in editor's queue?
PinkPosixPXE: yea, I can point out several pages where people complain about hte dependency issues, and so I thought 'well this script would fix them all' then idiots don't go using berklydb/bdb 5.3 or another versoin that isn't wallet or blockchain storage compatible
mike_c: sounds like a good addition to wiki.b-a
kakobrekla: PinkPosixPXE ditch the bad hobbies
PinkPosixPXE: mod6 expressed interest, and I set it up after running into issues on one of my instances, and then tested it across a vagrant+virtualbox testing environment with a few debian and ubuntu distros.
PinkPosixPXE: I've been meaning to chat more on here about assisting with some of the bitcoin dev and testing work I've been watching go on, but I've been slammed with projects, I have too many projects/hobbies I'm beginning to think. Either way, I wrote up an install_bitcoin script that takes into account dependency issues for certain versoins of debian and ubuntu.. not sure if anyone would find it useful,
jurov: now, what with the treasurer stuff? i'll just sign in without the references.
jurov: er.. in 14days of the request
jurov: and after that, shares+dividends will be delivered after 14 days of the request
jurov: i propose if they don't get claimed in 14 days, then they get loaned to coinbr.
jurov: mircea_popescu: we need some default agreement for shares that don't get claimed
assbot: Qntra (S.QNTR) October 2014 Statement pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
PinkPosixPXE: 01:27 #bitcoin-assets: <+mircea_popescu> ;;later tell PinkPosixPXE you've been awarded some s.qntr shares for your contributions to qntra as per http://trilema.com/2014/qntra-sqntr-october-2014-statement/ talk to jurov << Thanks for adding it to the exchange and doling out some shares, and thanks as well jurov :)
kakobrekla: if i give you 300 pages of easy text, you can not read it in 1 minutes
kakobrekla: anyway, we are measuring reading time, not comprehension time
bounce: footnotes are a major break in reading flow, so they're quite influential for the overall reading user experience and therefore the total amount of time the user gets to waste going back and forth
PeterL: depends on the feed, I think?
bounce: the entire article ends up in the rss feed?
PeterL: my next task is to rework all scoopbot's commands to respond to his name
PeterL: would I be able to tell where the footnotes start from the blob of text in the rss feed?
bounce: if you don't want to hear the answer, you might as well not ask the question.
kakobrekla: maybe the cultness of the article
mike_c: reading time
bounce: author, wordcount, footnote count would give some indication to make your own estimation
kakobrekla: but anyway a simplistic approach : estimate reading time by multiplying the word count by result of brainwallet test
PeterL: ok, now scoopbot should include the author.
kakobrekla: on the other hand would work for qntra
bounce: no, it's complete bs. reading time does not depend on wordcount alone. or even taking word length into consideration.
kakobrekla: easier to make the call - click or not to click
bounce was about to say something about making the notice shorter, but estimated reading time? ew!
kakobrekla: once this works and if you are bored, add wordcount at the end of report and estimated reading time
PeterL: ok, I will do that now
kakobrekla: add the author?
PeterL: oh, that. right now it is "new blog post on $sitename: $url"
assbot: Logged on 19-10-2014 02:27:17; kakobrekla: PeterL if you are going to do it, make the syntax 'New blog post on $sitename by $author: $url"
assbot: 10 results for 'if you are going to do it' : http://search.bitcoin-assets.com/?q=if+you+are+going+to+do+it
kakobrekla: !s if you are going to do it
kakobrekla: is the syntax such that my great ass suggested?
punkman: PeterL: did you use irker too?
PeterL: so scoopbot is ready (penguirker replacement), I suppose I need to talk to you about registering him in the chan?
jurov: the REFERENCES can't be replaced by definition.. why they must be there?
nubbins`: preferably replace the blablas with something that at least passes checksum
jurov: with the blablablas?
assbot: Moxie Marlinspike >> Blog >> A Crypto Challenge For The Telegram Developers
kakobrekla: maybe something like -3. this site is not for stupid, -2. ....
kakobrekla: but i can see it, mp having big cultural influence in this cult, weird bitbet doesnt have footnotes (yet)
kakobrekla: especially when you explain with 4 words taking up 2 lines space
jurov: mircea_popescu: or i can generate something like 1BTCFund but it 'll take a while
mircea_popescu: bout two.
bounce: how many man-years would it cost to come up with a decent web rendering engine these days?
BingoBoingo: from thestringpuller http://qntra.net/2014/11/new-bitcoin-deed-system-launches/
bounce: years and years ago, and it didn't impress me with the w3c
kakobrekla: presto sux though.
mircea_popescu: bounce makes two of us.
nubbins`: bounce ever try the w3c browser
bounce is using pre-webkit opera now. not too happy everything is going webkit, just with shittier and shittier user interfaces wrapped around it.
bounce: my, isn't that nice. google slowly breaking stuff in browsers to push their own craptastic contraption with copious user friendlyness and vendor lock-in sauce
mircea_popescu: like a tomato.
mircea_popescu: try making them on the stan next time.
kakobrekla: well they are standard for me
mircea_popescu: so they're more like spotdards ?
mike_c: but they work, which is also not standard.
mircea_popescu: !Contre nous de la tyrannie l'étendard sanglant est levé!
nubbins`: erm, is that standard?
mike_c: as a consumer of kako's standards, I can vouch they are anything but standard
nubbins`: i support the standard standards
nubbins`: perhaps we'll call this the superstandard, yes? set it apart a bit?
kakobrekla: its a good thing we can have as many standards as we need
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's gonna be the standard going forward.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla omg whay the haet!
nubbins`: gribble ticker
mircea_popescu: assbot t m s.qntr
mircea_popescu: i think this should be the standard bot calling procedure. say its name.
mircea_popescu: this is pretty fucking great, because the special char space was getting crowded
