undata: potential mechanism for doing storage for anything
that's hard
to cram into
transactions
undata: I've
thought a lot about spending magnet links into
the blockchain
too
undata: there's some synthesis of
these ideas
that works
undata: then distribute
the blob?
decimation: I
think
the conclusion was
that you would make a blob and
then put
the hash in
the blockchain somehow
decimation: undata: signing stuff in
the blockchain was discussed a few weeks ago
undata: latest rating by
timestamp wins
undata: but a small amount wouldn't hurt
that bad
undata: nor am I clear on what
the best method of encoding
the data would be
TheNewDeal: I
think it's somewhat novel, but I'm not quite
the resident expert
undata: I'd actually like some feedback on
the WoT in blockchain idea
undata: here's one
thing I've considered spending into
the blockchain
TheNewDeal: lets say someone actually comes up with a new alternative
to bitcoin
that actually makes some sort of improvement
undata: in
the same way
that me jumping jiggles
the moon
TheNewDeal: it increases
the worth of
the other coins, doesnt it?
undata: why would
that be a good idea?
TheNewDeal: They say
that burning bitcoin, or sending it
to a bitcoin blackhole, is a great way
to fund an altcoin
assbot: Ken Shirriff's blog: Hidden surprises in
the Bitcoin blockchain and how
they are stored: Nelson Mandela, Wikileaks, photos, and Python software
TheNewDeal: why wouldn't you just send
this over
to
the
testnet?
TheNewDeal: so you're proposing an extremely expensive
twitter
that would spit out a bunch of
transactions on
the blockchain?

mircea_popescu: "We also need
to find
the sender's address, so we know where
to send
the money.
This is done by looking at
the inputs of
the original
transaction.
The
transaction can have multiple inputs
that are all under
the control of
the sending party. We just send everything back
to one of
the input addresses at random."

ben_vulpes: truly a hanky story, but it's a step
towards integration
tests and what has one
ben_vulpes: so i've got a jenkins building
this crazy stripped down build
mircea_popescu: you mean where private first class amanda stole all
the data ?
undata: that guy has
the smirk of a kid who just pissed
the pool on purpose
mircea_popescu: anyway, in
this particular case
the best rebuttal is letting
the guy do whatever he does after "setting sights"
mircea_popescu: maybe we should just publish a schematic, help
these dumbasses self-rebutt
undata: "is scam because isn't money" and "blockchain
technology!"
undata: mthreat: I just read
that; what an asshat
mircea_popescu: <cazalla> ya know, over
the past month i've been reading articles,
there has been many fluff pieces
that keep pushing
this idea
that bitcoin
the
technology is what is valuable and not
the "currency" <<< yep. classic approach. "it's not
the barrel
that we're affraid of, it's
the crazy shit stuck on all sides of rifle".

tent | MadMikesAmerica
thestringpuller: undata: Bill Maher is kind of annoying at
times. He's very preachy about socialist-like policies.
undata: cazalla: he's a shittier Bill Maher for
the internet, without even
the redeemer of being funny
cazalla: undata, seems
that way, it comes across contrived
cazalla: ya know, over
the past month i've been reading articles,
there has been many fluff pieces
that keep pushing
this idea
that bitcoin
the
technology is what is valuable and not
the "currency", andreas kick
this shit off with "blockchain
technology" and now everyone is repeating
this shit

mircea_popescu: the general idea is
that nobody who gets involved into something like
this in any capacity and on any side survives. period.
ben_vulpes: "death of
the preivous hard fork" meaning
the actions
that brought everyone onto
the same chain?
mircea_popescu: well,
the death of
the previous hard fork (the one gavin & hearn created) happened
through
the cooperation of
the meanwhile defunct 50btc guild.
ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: so
the pool operators really decide if
the hard fork goes off, correct?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: at some point, perhaps, a major mine operator will be pwned and his crown jewels
throw
to
the mob.
then we can study live code. << why would anyone do
that ? it's difficult
to
trust
the authenticity of a stolen
thing, which is why
theft is not an acceptable source of evidence in legal proceedings
BingoBoingo: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform: actual - doubtful << if i ever have
to create you as a character, i'll have you watching
the special olympics and
then mutter
to yourself "i wonder why
they're
trying
to act handicaps" << I imagine
this scene happening with alf in a
tent. No context is given for
the
tent until he gets up
to
take a shit and
the view sees
the
tend is in an otherwise pedestrian living room and emblazoned with
the messa
mircea_popescu: actually no, you're right, gotta follow
their getworks
undata: one of
those posts
they hand out
to
the kids
to prep
them for later
undata: I watched a video earlier of one of
the younger Bushes, who's now
Texas Land Commissioner
undata: oh, no,
the next generation of garbage is coming up
mircea_popescu: it's impractical for
the aliens
to keep coming
to dig holes where
to dispose of
the us consumer garbage.
undata: as for
the second, *shrug*
mircea_popescu: undata: pretty ungrateful
to call
the guy retarded. << it's an act of love, you just don't know how
the world works.

mircea_popescu: direct application of "i have
tried and
therefore nobody should criticize me"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: i just love how
the krugman shitgnomes prattle on about
the need for physical 'use-value' in currencies and
then go on
to bid on apple-1 pcbs and jackson pollack paintings <<
they are stupid and how dare you demand
they be consistent!
