mircea_popescu: <ascii_modem> no 'war on drugz' - no sinaloa << dude, forget it. he was there before the us, he'll be there after.
decimation: ben_vulpes: sounds like fun, good luck
punkman: ascii_modem: unless can retool for slave trade << you think they won't find new business?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: well aren't we just the largest, bestest bitcoin company evar ;)
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem you sleep too much.
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski well, modernly.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: and 'first' mexican beheading ? what of aztecs playing soccer with heads of enemies ?
punkman: pete_dushenski: and the US officials are angry http://edition.cnn.com/2015/07/12/politics/el-chapo-escape-us-officials-angry/
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski you gotta appreciate, at least at the time, being romanian was, to romanians, mostly a derogation.
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem pretty certain he was a basarabi
pete_dushenski: !up ascii_modem
mircea_popescu: pete_dushenski there's an equivocation at work tho.
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: than how do you have 'advantage' ?
ascii_modem: is mircea_popescu posting from some planet inhabited by beings who die rather than slaving, en.masse?
mircea_popescu: and since an image's worth a thousand moans, http://41.media.tumblr.com/a19733372c89135be1c4ce0aad534e2d/tumblr_n8w6mezL3y1tx1yzzo1_1280.png
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem again with the "Honor!!11" ?
pete_dushenski: ascii_modem: 'plastique' makes me think of explosives, but that can't be what you mean ?
pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: so you see a way to reinvigorate the middle ?
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_modem
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem the gist of what i'm saying is that while foundation publishing the best code possible is a very useful and very worthy thing, you do not have game theoretic reasons to expect the things you were claiming to ewxpect
ascii_modem: if mircea_popescu tells us that this exists alive somewhere, i'm inclined to at least consider it
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem yeah, it's on the shelf right next to the secret cypher suites, have at.
mod6: ascii_modem: qq about stator build script: I was taking a closer look at this and it seems that your version removes 'no-shared' from the openssl configuration parameters and replaces it with 'threads'. Any main reason here? I thought we needed 'no-shared'? Just curious since your script seems to work well.
mod6: !up ascii_modem
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_modem

gernika: ;;later tell mircea_popescu http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-07-2015#1198376 << No nothing good. It was a centralized blockchain with reversible transactions using a custom implementation of ECC. ☝︎

ascii_modem: mircea_popescu: to a point. what does pirannha bath teach?
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_modem
mircea_popescu: and speaking of dragons, http://40.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdcgj5SEd11r4y7oeo1_1280.jpg
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 06:10:36; mircea_popescu: u kno there's no such thing rite
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem only in your alt-world where meta-win is a win and meta-nsa a thing.
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem understand that it doesn't matter what the loser of a contest cares about.
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_modem
decimation: ascii_modem: that's giving too much credit
ascii_modem: for mircea_popescu - dictation
ascii_modem: gabriel_laddel: usg claims earth and all of known unviverse
ascii_modem: mircea_popescu: it hired somebody ???!?
decimation: !up ascii_modem
decimation: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/03/03/end_to_google_apple_et_al_wagefixing_lawsuit_in_sight/ < lol
ascii_modem: mircea_popescu: new to me
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem it is new if you're from 2005.
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 04:38:27; ascii_modem: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=12-07-2015#1198074 << holyfuk wat is this.
decimation: http://www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/comments/3ce0s8/dear_amazon_interns_some_advice_from_an_old_man/ < lulzy massive thread where purported employees of amazon (and 'the big 4') complain about how they are assraped by amazon/google/ms etc
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 04:17:05; mircea_popescu: punkman completely driven crazy with the body image these days. i'm surprised there's even females left at all, sometimes. reasonable expectation last one died cca 2003 over a bulimia-anorexia crisis.
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 03:47:21; mircea_popescu: in any case : i don't like aes for purely political reasons. it became an apparent schelling point out of absolutely nowhere for no discernible reason. these situations always stink.
mircea_popescu: ascii_modem same as bitcoin, really. it's there.
phf: ascii_modem: that's what kept me from continuing to work on that patch, but i still ended up hacking the code for bulk export, since O(n^3)
decimation: !up ascii_modem

phf: ascii_modem: cut as in unix utility
phf: ben_vulpes: i started writing a patch that would let dumpblock accept cut's number range syntax, i.e. 1,7-100,200- but didn't think anyone would need it. i can pick it up again in a day or two, though i suspect you need it now?
ascii_modem: ben_vulpes: it was a 4line bash
ben_vulpes: ascii_modem: forgive the idiocy, i don't see any scriptage around the `dumpblock'ing
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 03:48:32; gabriel_laddel: I need interns
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 03:57:37; mircea_popescu: blowfish has successfully resisted analysis and was thoroughly abandoned. because aes "won a competition" ?
ascii_modem: ben_vulpes: no, but trivial. go, write
ben_vulpes: link plx? ascii_modem
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes wasn't that speedy but yes he did.
ben_vulpes: hate to interrupt, but ascii_modem did you ever post a hack for speedily dumping all blocks via a -dumpblock analog or am i misremembering?
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 03:53:23; mircea_popescu: worst thing about the early 2000s was how ms seemed it was going to live forever through directx
mircea_popescu: !up ascii_modem
assbot: Logged on 12-07-2015 03:55:35; mircea_popescu: and in other news, http://33.media.tumblr.com/7de75d4ebda90e2d168a79213340fe62/tumblr_n54dwd5MBJ1sr11rlo1_400.gif
punkman: mircea_popescu: o look at that, actually an english word. cool. << which?
decimation: mircea_popescu: I buy your political reasons, but aes was the 'winner' of a fairly large and open 'competition' and was then recommended by usg. How is that 'coming out of nowhere'?
mircea_popescu: and in other news, http://33.media.tumblr.com/7de75d4ebda90e2d168a79213340fe62/tumblr_n54dwd5MBJ1sr11rlo1_400.gif ☟︎
assbot: Logged on 11-07-2015 22:56:47; ascii_modem: fuck opengl. i want peter henderson's sexpr graphics
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: because I'm lazy?
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel i think the principle of machine-fixed code is broken, but hey. maybe you're in a narrow enough case you can pull it off.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: the problem with templates is that generating syntatically correct code is fucking impossible.
assbot: Logged on 11-07-2015 22:43:42; gabriel_laddel: For example, say that you find the existence of both elt & nth to be stupid. write a (meta)program that walks an arbitrary CL program and fixes all elt's to nths. Let everyone know that it's deprecated, and that they can run this program on their code to update it to CL 1.2 or whatever.
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel well there goes that idea.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: yep.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: yeah
mircea_popescu: gabriel_laddel btw, you use emacs ?
hanbot: mircea_popescu i think the point is able!=expected
assbot: Logged on 11-07-2015 12:45:57; funkenstein_: "Benner has lofty goals for his synthetic molecules. He wants to create an alternative genetic system in which proteins [] are unnecessary" <-- ??
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: Seems to be traction from the transaction fees article

phf: trinque, gabriel_laddel http://paste.lisp.org/display/151403 ☟︎
phf: gabriel_laddel: oh you're right, i'm behind on my readin'
phf: gabriel_laddel: i'm not sure what you're trying to say
trinque: gabriel_laddel: that example of taking action *once* and being able to turn that sort of "recorded" action into an abstraction, exactly fucking right
trinque: gabriel_laddel | how the fuck did you ever get good at python << by forcing myself to work through it
trinque: gabriel_laddel | trinque: yeah, so fyi there is no obvious way to add the docstring to eldoc << thanks for the crack at it
assbot: Logged on 23-05-2015 07:11:21; mircea_popescu: seems the sort of meta-prograsmming task for which lisp was invented anyway. keep your code as a s-expr of the code you deliver.
assbot: Logged on 11-07-2015 22:07:49; gabriel_laddel: MP is on the verge of understanding.
gabriel_laddel: mircea_popescu: explain please.
gabriel_laddel: ascii_modem: notice that you're not a prince.
gabriel_laddel: ascii_modem: dija read the part where I specified the reason for this is to impress a prince?
phf: gabriel_laddel: intellectual exercise :)
phf: gabriel_laddel: that's because "removing" is not a particularly worthwhile activity in this case
assbot: Logged on 11-07-2015 22:11:04; gabriel_laddel: should have just used CL
gabriel_laddel: ascii_modem: I am currently using CLIM, opengl
gabriel_laddel: ascii_modem: like what with graphics?
gabriel_laddel: ascii_modem: there is a scheme which didn't throw away the CL compiler and start from scratch?
assbot: Logged on 11-07-2015 22:43:42; gabriel_laddel: For example, say that you find the existence of both elt & nth to be stupid. write a (meta)program that walks an arbitrary CL program and fixes all elt's to nths.
