mircea_popescu: ascii_field besides the point.
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: aaaahahahaha. jesus it must suck to live in the us. << we usians are pretty much living in idiocracy. soon we'll see mass famine due to watering crops with electrolytes.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field this is not even pseudoscience. direct equivalent to "respeto"
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 13:33:50; funkenstein_: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1267185 <-- I'm told the phrase is antiquated and mostly used in jest today. Perhaps interesting that the translation of "revolution" is more akin to "molting" than "spinning".
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: one of my secret pleasures is to track historical patterns of linguistic theft by pseudoscience from the genuine article

mircea_popescu: !up ascii_field
ascii_field: what would mircea_popescu hypothetically ~personally~ pay per byte to preserve them ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it never landed.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field at least i didn't need a si fab for it eh.
ascii_field: despite mircea_popescu transmitting nonstop
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3ka7ic/bitcoin_is_not_visa/ << it's on front page nao.

trinque: ascii_field: just to wrap up the thought, this network device is simply (and exactly) a packet filter that accepts packets through one orifice, checks signatures (presumably has a slot somewhere in its head for pubkeys) and farts them inward via second orifice or drops on the floor
ben_vulpes: !up ascii_field
punkman: ascii_field: mike_c: i'd prefer that someone were to add the desperately needed topological walker, rather than focusing on the little chipped paint bits, but that's just me << what would this walker do?
ben_vulpes: mike_c: and that's after i burned out like 70% of them!
mike_c: and it will be very nice to have a test suite while doing so. so thanks ben_vulpes.
ascii_field: mike_c: that's ben_vulpes's version, not mine
ascii_field: i will borrow a page from mircea_popescu and say 'i don't give a fuck HOW' it is done
ascii_field: ben_vulpes: in principle i object to repetition in a proggy
ben_vulpes: mike_c: asciilifeform objected to the "which method, which args" approach to routing around argparse's braindamage, so if you have good ideas down there throw 'em out
ben_vulpes: mike_c: i posted a tarball, as i did some messy surgery and expected brutal diffs. if you can get cleaner diffs, that'd be great.
mike_c: ben_vulpes: you want me to post a full tarball or diffs to mailing list?
ascii_field: mike_c: i confess that my intent was to have folks rewrite it
mike_c: ascii_field: what's the plan here? you want updates signed/posted on the mailing list? we going to use v to manage changes to v?
asciilifeform: !up ascii_field
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i can show rigorously that it can be. but requires custom si.
ben_vulpes: mike_c: that is the test i left off at. feel free to replace the "gotcha" assertion with an actual test, or just eliminate the assertion completely.
ascii_field: mike_c: what is
mircea_popescu: ascii_field and so as alf would point out, "nothing hapepened"
ben_vulpes: mike_c: nominally unittest does test discovery, i focused on making tests though.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field dude let people do what they do.
jurov: mircea_popescu: i don't see any big obstacle against ddosing 1000 targets with slow connections vs. targeting one
ascii_field: mike_c: i'd prefer that someone were to add the desperately needed topological walker, rather than focusing on the little chipped paint bits, but that's just me
ascii_field: mike_c: if you like
mike_c: kthx. maybe test_v.py should have if __init__==main unittest.main()? is that not standard?
ben_vulpes: mike_c: python -m unittest test_v
mircea_popescu: ascii_field and that's also what the msr license is all about, too.
mike_c: ben_vulpes: I'm used to doctests. how do i run your v unittests?
BingoBoingo: <ascii_field> my point was that b-a browser demands b-a machine << TI-92
ascii_field: surely mircea_popescu knows that usg (esp. .mil) makes heavy use of an internal tard pgp by microshit
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: neh it'll be 'embraced' and extended
mircea_popescu: ascii_field their inability to observe isomorphism is one of their lulziest features.
trinque: mircea_popescu: yes I think using "the logs" has a lot of fruit left to give
mircea_popescu: ascii_field a) i didn't make it!
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: imho you were falling into this very bear trap with the 'nano' thread
mircea_popescu: ascii_field well, that's not the point. the point is that what, seriously, ima sit here and go "hey, this shit's pretty good" ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: if you - or anybody else - can write something recognizable as this item, i promise to take off my hat
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 12:35:42; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1267767 << this is a CATASTROPHICALLY bad idea, because any attempt is simply asking for self-delusionary masamunification (sorry gabriel_laddel, but you know precisely what i mean.) -- this being, 'aha this is a turd, but WE made it and therefore doesn't stink and is somehow edible'
jurov: mircea_popescu: pls to mpex
lobbes: !up ascii_field
lobbes: mircea_popescu: if you are not playing you 'fall behind' the economy? though, that is the beauty of the 'encouraged bots' system
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: i suppose it is a win then that i cannot ask stoutemyer anything. after all, my only qualification is 'can walk', aha.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field i suppose this is what the obese have ruined in the world. scarcity.
mircea_popescu: ascii_field hey, i dunno if you ever played this, but there was a GREAT, an absoluterly fucking fantastic game in the pre-windows days

ascii_field: mircea_popescu: self-steering projectile ~really~ wants to be a rocket, not only because guidance apparatus costs and so may as well include large warhead, but also because changing direction kills velocity if all you got is the acceleration in the barrel (classical bullet)
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: iirc lockheed was advertising this
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: cuba, l0l
punkman: ascii_field: way more than those https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_honorifics
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: yea. that too. actually got submitted by 3 separate people @_@
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: they have many more than 2 ты/вы addresses
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_field
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 19:33:01; mircea_popescu: the cannonical rejection of misplaced familiarity being "nu suntem deopotriva" ie, we're not of the same social level.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: против == against
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: consonants wander as you go west
mircea_popescu: ascii_field incidentally isn't it potrivnik ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: feel free to log in & zero the disk whenever.
ascii_field: but this is prolly not worth whatever mircea_popescu is paying for it
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: not waiting for replacement ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: incidentally, dulap is all backed up.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: iirc mats spoke cn
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: 600 of which blocks
mircea_popescu: ascii_field btw, i started a measuring, my node pulls ~600 blocks/hour
mircea_popescu: ascii_field yeah.
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: the 'checkpoint' thing is actually useless as implemented now, it merely skips verification for the listed blocks
mircea_popescu: ascii_field you know how the code nos supports "developer mandated" checkpoints ?
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: remind me what this was
asciilifeform: !up ascii_field
ascii_field: mircea_popescu: it was in today's log
assbot: Logged on 09-09-2015 11:41:49; asciilifeform: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=09-09-2015#1267274 << gabriel_laddel: you are speaking mostly to folks who haven't grasped lisp. sorta like showing a modern army base to medieval commander - he will not be able to see past it being 'a terrible castle, where the fuck are the walls and moats'
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_field
asciilifeform: !up ascii_field
punkman: ascii_field, I wouldn't think fake capacity numbers are a problem, but yeah I guess you gotta write $x GB of data to it that can't be compressed away ☟︎

VariaVarietatis: shinohai: datadir? i'm running one copy connected then used another copy to run LC_ALL=C ./bitcoind getbalance 12R4kPeSK6i9427ctH15j2NcJ1ST1FT21C gives me 0.0 but checking on blockchain it shows me this account has 27 btc
shinohai: !up ascii_field
shinohai: Just LC_ALL=C ./bitcoind getbalance is sufficient
VariaVarietatis: shinohai: like LC_ALL=C ./bitcoind getbalance 12R4kPeSK6i9427ctH15j2NcJ1ST1FT21C -myip=127.0.0.1 -addnode=195.211.154.159 ?

assbot: Logged on 17-08-2015 19:35:54; mircea_popescu: irl, settlement's a paperwoirk affair and actual delivery is much disconsidered. as a token of the fact that everyone involved would muchly want reality to match their representation to the degree of absolute identity. so they desconsider the later.
