asciilifeform: grilfriend << 'i'm cooked on that side, please turn me over' (st lawrence of rome?)
jurov: mircea_popescu: http://mpex.co/?mpsic=F.MPIF has no text
mircea_popescu: since you're doing that might as well go the whole nine yards
moldysnizz: I'm going to make my own TRNG. With hookers, and blackjack!

asciilifeform can't read word 'arduino' without immediately thinking 'aradruin' from j.r.r.t's 'silmarillion' (and ru. translation of 'lord of rings')
asciilifeform: or is this another 'basic stamp' where 'pr0gr4m w1th0ut pr0gr4mm1ng like a l33t ch1xx0r' affair ?
punkman: and the "community"
asciilifeform: ide << what's in there? sdcc?
assbot: BitBet - Bitcoin-Central out of business in 2014 :: 0.87 B (8%) on Yes, 10.09 B (92%) on No | closing in 2 months 4 weeks | weight: 36`753 (100`000 to 1)
mircea_popescu: davout http://bitbet.us/bet/826/bitcoin-central-out-of-business-in-2014/#c4057 << you got a comment on this ?
punkman: asciilifeform: the selling point is mostly the Arduino IDE
asciilifeform: how hard is it to plant a micro in a breadboard or simple pcb ?
gribble: davout was last seen in #bitcoin-assets 8 hours, 41 minutes, and 34 seconds ago: <davout> oui et toi-même ?
asciilifeform: i never really grasped the appeal
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: i thought 'arduino' used an 'atmega'
asciilifeform: moldysnizz: this particular item (trng) is a very simple but safety-critical (hence amount of effort spent on it) component of a larger apparatus.
kakobrekla: asciilifeform basically yea. you also have the arm editions in same package.
assbot: Loper OS » Cardano Prototype Tidbits: TRNG Boards.
moldysnizz: http://www.loper-os.org/?p=1427 ahh I didn't relize it was it's own thing. Looks fun!
asciilifeform: kakobrekla: they're 'atmel'-something-or-others with a bunch of convenient plugs, yeah?
asciilifeform not sure how item in question could have been confused for 'arduino' - other than in both being small electrical gizmos
moldysnizz: Is this like a Arduino?
moldysnizz: mircea_popescu, did you ever get a decent prototype of that RNG device working?
assbot: Unsorted collection of various Cardano related updates + spurious pics pe Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.

mircea_popescu: ;;google time is going by really slow i think we might be dead
bounce: "security by lack of entropy" -- my, wouldn't that be useful
kakobrekla: isnt that a bit fast
mircea_popescu: no, by way of 1 bit of trilema contsaining 1 bit of information and so no room for this entropy cheez
jurov: trilema entropy is 0 << means 1 bit of trilema text contains 0 bits of information?
mircea_popescu: unfortunately, it is a skill i seem to have mysplaced myself ;/
mircea_popescu: you just gotta know how to read it
assbot: Logged on 22-03-2014 17:19:21; asciilifeform: incidentally, my first exposure to the problem of RNGs with inadequate entropy was by accident, at uni
TheNewDeal: Makes me remember the markov chain trilema
bounce: txtspk, bringing humanity into easy AI territory from the other end
jurov: dat my mind. just produced a thought "what if we measure trilema entropy? and what if it ends up being over-unity?"
TheNewDeal: It was mostly a joke, on the topic of rand() ya know
asciilifeform just saw, through window, an ornate 'sheriff' car, stopped. woman in police uniform emerges, tries to serve some kind of legal notice printed on large stiff paper to neighbour - who isn't home. she gets back in, drives off.
jurov: kako's too
jurov: not you, TheNewDeal
mircea_popescu: there is method to this random!
TheNewDeal: Randomly scattered around trilema?
jurov: related to cardano rng
jurov: dunno, large part of that material is scattered around trilema
moldysnizz: *goes to the site*
moldysnizz: In reguards to rand()?
kakobrekla: moldysnizz you prolly need to read everything ascii ever said.
moldysnizz: I was formarly chatquack, but the computer with the creds is in storage.

moldysnizz: Computers making randome numbers? I don't think so.
moldysnizz: I've been trying to wrap my head around rand().
mircea_popescu: do this : hire a chick wherever your studio is located. i'll pay for her tiome, give her an xchat terminal and she can read my replies.
mircea_popescu: why must the format be bulky and impossible ? can't we do this ?

mircea_popescu: ;;rate PeterL 1 Guy fucked up his glbse assets 3 years ago. This is a fact. That fact may be explained as a smart guy failing in a soup of idiots, and the optimist in me is inclined towards it.

ThickAsThieves: and QBO doesnt make it clear when/what you need to mail yourself, vs submit online
chetty: all the assorted tax filings and stuff are real time eaters
ThickAsThieves: it does make it easy, but at the risk of not knowing wtf to do if you have a problem and no accounting support
ThickAsThieves: <+ben_vulpes> one guy says to hire a whole payroll company /// in my experience doing your own payroll via QBO is better than paying ADP or such, but only if your staff knows some amount of accounting and tax filing
chetty: ben_vulpes, if you have employees where you have to do withholding and stuff, hire an outfit, cheaper in the long run
chetty hasn't noticed anyone even talking about minecraft here ..
mats_cd03: minecraft is a big deal and i think that's often understated in this channel

ben_vulpes: one guy says to hire a whole payroll company
ben_vulpes: why does everything suck, ThickAsThieves
ThickAsThieves: "Hi, I'm interested in developing integration apps with Quickbooks online. May I sign up for a one year developer account?" too late Intuit
ThickAsThieves: lol Intuit just responded to a 2yr-old service request from a developer that used to work for me
ThickAsThieves: Circle is open for business, that should halve Coinbase's lifespan
