MolokoDesk: agreed. we'll see how it scales in
the future.
diametric: there really isn't anything
to maintain..
MolokoDesk: eternal vigiliance is
the price etc etc...
MolokoDesk: it's a bit of work
to "not lose a private key". I jest somewhat.
MolokoDesk: I'm in. I'll get
that set up in a while.
MolokoDesk: I do understand
the utility of it, obviously.
mircea_popescu: no it's not. your future ability
to obtain work here, as well as your ability
to benefit from
the positive exposure you worked for
today strictly hinges on you having a wot acct.
MolokoDesk: but I see why it's
the
thing
to do now, since I'm going
to be in here a bit.
mircea_popescu: get in
the wot, you can get rated,
then you can just voice yourself and add whatever relevant whenever relevant.

kakobrekla: <kakobrekla> didnt i just link
to it? <
twice, first
time was a /notice
MolokoDesk: there's probably an includable object in php
that does PGP operations
that doesn't use
the command line. some PGP or GPG library wrapper.
MolokoDesk: heh. Was going
to have
to look into
that.
mircea_popescu: "i float carried on
tits with wings of cotton candy on
their backs,
they carry me
through pink skies and fluffy clouds upon which bubble sleepy dinosaurs. flying by go butts with lengthy bead strings, and a rustic potato crucified on lolips " etc
MolokoDesk: address for project related

mircea_popescu: as per
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z0WmWUT2rM : Plutesc purtat de
tate-naripate cu aripi din vata de zahar pe spate ma poatra-n ceruri roz cu nori pufosi pe care fac bule dinozauri somnorosi. In zbor
trec buci cu lungi siraguri de margele si-un cartof rustic rastignit pe acadele. Mai
trece si un peste de otel si-un urs din muci cu degetel dar iata, hiii, acolo-n zare marea vulva cum rasare.
nubbins`: finally come across
this Melvins poster w/ mcdonald's characters on
the moon with huge 10'
tall cocks growing out of
the surface
nubbins`: i'm
thinking wtf? search
the archives
nubbins`: all
these world-class poster artists saying "space dicks" "yep, space dicks"
nubbins`: reminds me of a
thread on gigposters.com,
the place i learned my craft -- question was "what's your fave show poster"
nubbins`: you're going
to lel when you see
the next layer
MolokoDesk: but it's not an issue
to get started for me.
MolokoDesk: I may want
to
talk about
the deliveries and such in /msg
mircea_popescu: what
the hell has life in
the police state done
to you ppls!
MolokoDesk: ok. if we're in agreement about what
to do and when
to do it I can send you a bitcoin address and get
to work.
nubbins`: the split fountain on
the sky is particularly nice
ben_vulpes: why a gc call? why
there? what
the ever loving fuck is
the story?
mircea_popescu: nubbins` haha shiot sherlock,
that satuff should bne on your blog.
ben_vulpes: i'll posit you
the other scenario: bisect
the codebase inserting GC calls until we find one innocuously positioned
that can discredit
the btcd
team
midnightmagic: ben_vulpes:
That's
total nonsense. It means
the codebase is fragile, or
the language itself is fragile.
justusranvier: In any case, check
the
timestamps on
the
testnet blocks on
the day when btcd announced
they'd entered beta
RagnarDanneskjol: mircea_popescu - are you confident molo is clear on
the reqs? MolokoDesk - are you clear on
the reqs?
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic people like
the fact
that it's not in shitlanguage and it's better written
than
the bitcoind.
this is not a comment on
th\e actual code quality.
justusranvier: I've actually got
to run for about 30-45 minutes, but when I get back I can explain what actually happened on
testnet.
midnightmagic: ben_vulpes: A user put a forced garbage collection at
the wrong spot in Conformal's btcd, and Go segfaulted for no good reason.
The code is not as high-quality as everyone
thinks it is.
mircea_popescu: make it happen! sign
them! nude chicks with
tubes on
their head singing
the ocarina!
ben_vulpes: what's a
thousandth of a coin worth in
three decades?
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes you got
the worthless
traffic, can't he have
the worthless
tips ?
midnightmagic: justusranvier: It was one or
the other.
They deny it was
them. From
the perspective of an outsider, what's
the
truth? Who knows? But
the fork started at a block CONFORMAL built, and went for hundreds of
testnet blocks. It's not b-s. Conformal's logic is false about
the origin.
assbot: changetip comments on Conformal are
the Real Bitcoin Core Devs
assbot: midmagic comments on Conformal are
the Real Bitcoin Core Devs
justusranvier: I just spent
the last
three days supporting a code sprint with four Monetas coders and Dave Collins while
they work on btcwallet. Midnightmagic's story about btcd forking
testnet is complete BS
mircea_popescu: this is
true, you're one of
the very few people who were around during pirate even, didn't go all nuts about it.
midnightmagic: Yeah
that was b-s. He was a menace. Nobody who relies on me lost any money at MtGox.
mircea_popescu: what, you really
thought we seriously let you people do
the coding ?
mircea_popescu: midnightmagic plenty of people have custom clients
that don't get crushed by
the hearn introduced nsa bug.
midnightmagic: Correct.
The mining code, which was unavailable at
the
time
the fork occurred.
midnightmagic: when everyone else's bitcoind did, is evidence
that conformal is misbehaving or at least wilfully misinforming people.
midnightmagic: ben_vulpes: It means
the constant claim of credit for work bitcoin core does,
the regular snipes and badmouthing of dev activity,
the adoption, nearly wholesale, of bitcoin features and ideas without any attribution, and
the denial
that either someone with access
to
the conformal code created a fork after rejecting a conformal-mined block, or someone who has a custom bitcoind
that doesn't crash on a huge long
testnet fork even
ben_vulpes: this negrating is for
this set of
things.
MolokoDesk: I was considering
that
the other night, having a web of
trust data structure as a graph,
then different algorithms
to assess inheritance or diffusion of
trust, various wieghtings of different endorsements, graph
topology analysis
to detect mutual endorsement cartels,
that sort of
thing
mircea_popescu: and your skull over
there
too, with
this brain matter in a wet soup, also got its pluses and minuses.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes
think of it
the only right way
to
thinl of it : any restriction on
the process for others is
tantamount
to a restriction on
the domain of
the
trng.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes you really can't say what process a
third party uses
to discern
trustworthyness
ben_vulpes: they are for
trustworthiness and
trustworthiness only.
mircea_popescu: it's cool and all, but it has
to pm
to
the commanding nick
MolokoDesk: yeah, i'm scraping wolfram alpha, but if you pay
them
there's an API
that is somewhat more flexible.
