mircea_popescu: Adlai im pretty sure you can view bitbet in emacs if it comes
to it.
mircea_popescu: then derps derp about 50mn lines of code. seriously, bitch ?
that's your caching ?
mircea_popescu: but just as an indication of
the problem : w3
total cache, version 8.5 ? 250kb. w3
total cache, version 9.2 ? 1,8 mb
mircea_popescu: it's also a glimpse into bitcoin's future, if usgavin and
the power retard crowd have
their way
mircea_popescu: the way wp codebase works is indicative of what naggum described,
the problem of maggots wanting
the status of coder and so writing code for
the sake of being coders.
mircea_popescu: they made in
the interval about 10 different claims
to "having fixed it"
mircea_popescu: the bug affects
the codebase all
the way
through,
to
the first introducton of xlmrpc back in 2004 or w/e
BingoBoingo: Reading up on
this
the fixed a similar problem with
trackbacks back in 2.8, I don't know why it would be
their position
to make a sharp edge like
this
the default when
the push
themselve
to people looking for feather cushions.
Adlai: mircea_popescu: something bad happened
to my graphics server so i'm stuck communicating with
the world in
text
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu:
That's
the fucktard's case for not fixing obvious hole?
mircea_popescu: This
tradeoff in pingbacks design has been
there for a decade now, he said via email. Its seldom used outside of experimentation because it gets shut down by anti-spam providers like Akismet or web hosts when used at any scale, and
there are cheaper, easier, and more effective ways
to DDOS sites.
Thats why no serious attacks (above 2gbps) use it.
devthedev: BingoBoingo: Are articles written by yourself of cazalla calculated into
the "wordcount of qualified articles published"?
Adlai: surprisingly painless
to do
that once you get familiar with
tmux
TheNewDeal: can't
tell if you
two are joking or are serious?

BingoBoingo: Also, small navigation improvement on Qntra,
there are now geography categories attached
to relevant posts.
The Categories are
the continents + Russia. Might make browsing for certain kinds of stories easier for people.
kakobrekla: BingoBoingo maybe add a word about
that?
mats_cd03: they live in a different world
than we do.
thestringpuller: i
thought bitcoin businesses shouldn't hold profit in fiat.
mats_cd03: what would you propose
they do? continue operating at a fiat loss indefinitely?
thestringpuller: volatility shouldn't be an issue if your liquidity pool is deep enough. does
this mean
they aren't operating with enough supply?
mats_cd03: "Until
the next
time
there's serious volatility."
ThickAsThieves: "Just wanted
to let you know you should no longer have any issues with instant
transactions

kakobrekla: yes lisp. i recently started learning
the
thing
thanks (or not?)
to our resident mad scientist asciilifeform.
kakobrekla: i understood
this pretty quickly so i never got employed.
☟︎ jurov: um.. afaik usually people work because
they won't have
the discipline otherwise
Adlai: now he gets up in
the morning every day
to work because he does not rack dishiprin
Adlai: his parents gave him food, shelter, and access
to
the crappiest indoctrination
taxes can subsidize
Adlai: field
trip lunch money, movies on weekends, etc
Adlai: flatmate had
to work for spending money his entire life
jurov: lol Adlai if parents
threw you at 18 onto
the street
Adlai: why is what i said false
though? you don't know me!
jurov: despite
that, i started working during studies
jurov: <Adlai> and yes, it's fair
to say
that i was "mistreated" by never having
to work for money until i stopped accepting my parents' charity <<
this is patently false
Adlai manages
to load qntra.net after a while of waiting
cazalla: well, i had an article
to post but
this fuck continues
to dos
the site so i guess i'll get some sleep
cazalla: its getting
the fuck pingbacked out of it
thestringpuller: there was another but wasn't
trustworthy for sports betting long ago
cazalla: was bitbet
the first
to use no account betting?
jurov: s.qntr added
to coinbr
jurov catches s.qntr mention in
the lawgs
wyrdmantis: fresh as you like :D
Thanks a lot Adlai!
fluffypony: which country? South Africa doesn't seem
to give a crap.
wyrdmantis: yeah Adlai, i'm referring
to
the lawyer's
trying
to put out a legal framework, and such nonsense, for
the sake of knowing :)
Adlai: last i checked
the network is properly regulating mining fees and preventing double spends, so i'd say it's going well!
wyrdmantis: any fresh news on
the "bitcoin regulation" front?
xanthyos: they
threaten
to kill me, i've had automatic weapons pulled angrily
xanthyos: like
they've gotten so worked up
they forgot
the nature of
the internet.
xanthyos: it's amazing how often i get
threatened by someone caught speechless in
the onslaught of my verbal abuse with a gun.
xanthyos: oh wow davidlatapie at first glance i
thought you might be davidldubuc
Adlai: (when phrased
this way it does make me consider
that conspiracy a lot less likely)
Adlai: any o yall believe
trustless currency via proof of work was invented as a
tool for
tracking rather
than liberation?

assbot: The Six Pillars For Surviving in Computer
Times | Contravex: A blog by Pete Dushenski
assbot: O hai let me wanna-be! pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
Adlai: try writing
the shortest possible quine in ansi cl. if you want
to check
the answer, it was just in #lisp and
there are public logs, but
try yourself before you check.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski sent you a pingback. fix
the hole will you.
pete_dushenski: unfortunately
the switch over meant some updates (spit) and whatnot
pete_dushenski: o and contravex's footnotes now have
the proper indentation so you can now see all
the roman numerals :)
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: i had actually read
that qntra "pending announcement" bit in
the logs,
though meanwhile forgotten. in my defense, you never mentioned much in
the way of
terms or wtf you were even alluding
to :D
pete_dushenski: the upside is now i have an avatar for commenting on other blogs and
that contravex has a snazzy new recent comments sidebar.
pete_dushenski: oh and my apologies for
the penguirker spam earlier. i was changing hosting plans and had
to rejigger
the whole meal deal.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: where is
that quote from? "Fuck yes we can...."
assbot: EITC Home Page--Its easier
than ever
to find out if you qualify for EITC
pete_dushenski: though
the only other effort
that comes
to mind is
that of ltb (andreas' first home) with
their broke back counterparty baloney. so not much comp but...
decimation: for poor people in
the us,
taxes pay you
mircea_popescu: decimation
the
thing is
they work on a per dollar basis. if
there's nothing
to steal
they can't afford
to prosecute you.
pete_dushenski: the mpex-qntra relationship is quite
the crafty little construction. puts other efforts
to shame.
gribble: You rated user cazalla on Fri Oct 10 19:05:29 2014, with a rating of 2, and supplied
these additional notes: qntra.net chief editor..
decimation: mircea_popescu: yeah if you have a semi-competent
tax lawyer you can probably avoid jail, just pay
the fine
mircea_popescu: most poor people get
that added benefit,
thatthey can just forego
the irs altogether
