X-Rob: ...
this is a really good point, RagnarsBitch
RagnarsBitch: Geez rob. If you'd just built
the pool like you said, we wouldn't be having
this conversation
X-Rob: but I'm not even getting
the web page.
X-Rob: RagnarsBitch:
that's also incorrect.
RagnarsBitch: Right, you know p2pool is slow as molasses
to show share value
X-Rob: I am
trying
to connect
to
the p2pool port
to see what
the share value is
RagnarsBitch: Ok. Describe barely reachable..digi ocean says its been up
the whole
time
X-Rob: but
that pool is barely reachable
assbot: This is what it's like
to find out
the government hacked your business |
The Verge
X-Rob: I don't
think you understand
the problem.
RagnarsBitch: It has
to do with packet loss and pools not being designed for just a single miner. I know I've had
these same issues anytime just one miner is active on a pool ,
then resolves as soon as a couple more come online
X-Rob: chalbersma:
The miner is set up with
that pool as priority one
X-Rob: it appears
that
thepool just died.
X-Rob: RagnarsBitch: What does
the number of miners have
to do with it?
The share value is calculated based on
the hash rate aimed at
the pool.
RagnarsBitch: If anyone in here has an asic miner
they can spare, please point it at
the pool for 24 hours so
this can get sorted out
chalbersma: Can you
try setting a manual difficulty? I believe
they added
that feature
to p2pool recently
to improve stability. Let me look up
the formatting on how
to do it.
RagnarsBitch: Yes, rob.
There needs
to be more
than one miner on
the network otherwise
this issue will persist
X-Rob: No, p2pool doesn't work like
that.
chalbersma: I imagine it has
to do with
the changing hashrate.
chalbersma: That's basically all I've changed (in addition
to adding
the extra web interface bits.
X-Rob: chalbersma: you should be using
the standard p2pool build, with just
the magic changed and
the ports.
chalbersma: X-Rob Can I get you
to point some hashing power
there for a bit. Let's see if I can see what
the issue is.
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell nubbins` not an expert on vindication but expiration may as well mean neglect or w/e
X-Rob: This is when ASICs suck compared
to old GPU or CPU hardware, as
they need extra
time
to reset and reconfigure
X-Rob: mircea_popescu: I don't know.
The pool shouldn't be requesting a hard reset
that often. It means
that
the pool
thinks
the block
time is 20 seconds-ish.
peterl: What brings you
to #bitcoin-assets?

trade order - Saskatoon - CBC News
ben_vulpes: i'm going
to do all sorts of stupid shit when i have a labor surplus.
mircea_popescu: they used half
ton vats
to cook
the stuff. potatoes cleanned and cut by hand
mircea_popescu: romanian 4rd army (transylvania) used
to serve basically
two
types of food. either cluj cabbage (layers of ground pork and cut cabbage cooked in a large pot for 2 hours) or porked potatoes (same
thing)
ben_vulpes: out on
the line i heard
the same routine: "i can muscle
these castings onto
the fixture faster
than any robot!""
chetty: and I am a grand cook
too
chetty: I bet I can prep a meal faster by hand
than with a silly gadget
ben_vulpes: sheesh chetty
this is frosh grade "lean" engineering :P
ben_vulpes: garlic and
the onions and
the carrots and...
chetty: ben_vulpes, pfftt,
takes as long or longer
to setup and clean food processor
than
to just mince
the garlic
ben_vulpes: engineer automates a
thing, does not get
those hours back but instead firm can now build
things faster and charge less
than
the competition for better quality work.
ben_vulpes: <chetty> hmm humans live longer, we have all
these modern
things
to reduce work and yet we dont have
time. I admit
that one confounds me. << girl gets a food processor, but prep
time saved in mincing garlic does not make meals faster, but grander meals.
chetty: interesting habit you got
there, " beat
to shit against a countertop"
mircea_popescu: its realyl not hard
to do, i did it on 2/2 bottles i
tried
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i
think kakobrekla has it.
the cap is an de facto valve. under high pressure its seal fails, as presusre drops it collapses and seals again, which builds pressure again etc
kakobrekla: just
the valve needs more energy
to fail
than
to sustain fail

mircea_popescu: simple musical verification of
this : all military marches are short musical phrases with a lot of percution and a lot of short measures. all dirges are
the opposite.
mircea_popescu: the more often conscience flows get interrupted,
the less subjective
time is had.
mircea_popescu: roughly speaking,
the
time
the subject perceives he has is a scalar computed as a function of
the interruptions count in
their brain.
chetty: hmm humans live longer, we have all
these modern
things
to reduce work and yet we dont have
time. I admit
that one confounds me.
mircea_popescu: course
they'll live
to regret it, but on
the plus side, not so very many of
them.
mircea_popescu: chetty
to be honest, i
think
the only
thing
that's getting exterminated on
the short and maybe medium
term is your style of reasonable, golden middle sanity.
mircea_popescu: anyway, "author and activist" is becoming
the new "singer-songwriter", which is what elevator girls became after waitress-and-model went out of fashion with greenwich village
mircea_popescu: anyway, i for one am muchly in favour of california and perhaps
the entire us applying
this novel
thinking. for one
thing, it's
too expensive
to find out what exactly
the drawbacks of
this ovular merging
thing are other
than by using voluntary subjects.
chetty: the current habit in some cultures of aborting
the majority of female children is equally insane
mircea_popescu: the solutions she comes up with all stem from her unwarranted premise
that she's a whole and complete being.
mircea_popescu: chetty just a little misguided, imo. she perceives
the problem correctly,
there's
too many idiots.
mircea_popescu: this derpage is so delicious lol. olg hags clinging
to a social relevancy and political influence
they never had and never will have. derp on, sisters!
chetty: Let me point out
that as woman I
think
the author of
that piece is
totally insane.
mircea_popescu: the future, if
there is one, is happy identification as slaves for
the people who are, for very good reason, exactly
that.
mircea_popescu: so
there you have it, perfectly good reason
to oppose libertard environmentalism, along with
the rest of women-studies driven libertardism.
mircea_popescu: Such a prospect is attractive
to women who feel
that if
they bear sons no amount of love and care and nonsexist
training will save
those sons from a culture where male violence is institutionalized and revered.
These are women saying, No more sons. We will not spend
twenty years of our lives raising a potential rapist, a potential batterer, a potential Big Man.
mircea_popescu: [I]f women are given
the freedom of
their bodies
then
they may well choose [experimental "ovular merging"
technology
that produces only female embryos] in great enough numbers
to make a significant difference in
the sex ratio of women
to men. A 75% female
to 25% male ratio could be achieved in one generation if one-half of a population reproduced heterosexually and one-half by ovular merging.
mircea_popescu: We now come
to a critical point: how is such a reduction in
the male population
to
take place? One option is of course male infanticide. It differs very little from
the female infanticide
that has apparently been carried out even into
the
twentieth century by some cultures. Such an alternative is clearly distasteful and would not constitute creative social change. . . .
mircea_popescu: To secure a world of female values and female freedom we must, I believe, add one more element
to
the structure of
the future:
the ratio of men
to women must be radically reduced so
that men approximate only
ten percent of
the
total population. . . .
mircea_popescu: ogative of any man. I suggest
that lesbians and other independent women are already moving in
this direction. . . .
mircea_popescu: In every culture it must be women in charge of
the changes: women-identified women, no women who are pawns of men, not women who out of
their fear of losing
their lives or
those of
their children, still hold
to
the securities of
that dangerous patriarchal culture, but women utterly free of coercion, free of male influence and committed
to
the principle
that
the right of species regulation is
their own, and not
the prer
mircea_popescu: ren men
think are necessary
to perpetuate
the
tribe or
the religion or
the specific culture. Instead
they will bear
the children
that
they want,
that
they can care for, and
that
they assess are needed by
the specific group and
the entire species. . . .
mircea_popescu: Women will bear
the number of children
they know can be sustained not just by
their own social group but by
the wide ecological system.
They will not bear
the children
that some man wants only
to perpetuate his name or
the family possession of his property;
they will not bear
the children
they presently convince
themselves
they must have because
their only role is obedient wife and mother; women will not have
the child
mircea_popescu: ent any males say-so in
the process of reproduction. Create and protect alternative structures of economic and psychological support for independent women women not attached
to men who are child-bearers and child-raisers. . . .
mircea_popescu: Make
the decision entirely
that of
the woman as
to how she will be impregnated and how often, if indeed she chooses
to be so at all, and whether by heterosexual intercourse, artificial insemination or a form of ovular merging. Restore
to each woman
the inalienable right
to say what shall become of any fertilized egg and
to control absolutely
the number of children she wishes
to emerge from her body. . . . Make nonexist
mircea_popescu: To return species responsibility
to women means in very practical
terms
that erotic and reproductive initiative must be restored
to women all over
the globe. . . .
mircea_popescu: At least
three further requirements supplement
the strategies of environmentalists if we are
to create and preserve a less violent world. I) Every culture must begin
to affirm a female future. II) Species responsibility must be returned
to women in every culture. III)
The proportion of men must be reduced
to and maintained at approximately 10% of
the human race. . . .
mircea_popescu: Enslaved by male-identification and years of practice within
the system as we all still are
to one degree or another,
the assumption must be
that
the present system of monopoly capitalism and patriarchy must be replaced and
that non-male-identified women must be
the responsible ones. . . .
mircea_popescu: allow me
to dump some nonsense for ready future reference.
