danielpbarron: i liked the necromancer but he wasn't very powerful
mircea_popescu: but yeah, nobody cares, just don't repeat yourself.
nubbins`: is there anyone here who hasn't made the local news for threatening people? o.O
jurov: for $12 they expect something that just works and it isn't worth waiting a month for to be done
mircea_popescu: a) fredrik de boer is a choad ; b) the left can't "win". because it's stupid. a bunch of frogs in a lake can win just as much. wtf can the terminally retarded gonna "win" ?
thestringpuller: ^- doesn't she do that already?
mircea_popescu: <asciilifeform> did not like mathematics. << this guy is a cryptologist that didn't like coding or math.
asciilifeform: and snarfs from him, until it doesn't
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> [] asciilifeform as i said before, it's a kudge to fix another kludge. we don't really wnat any of it. << what was the first kludge?
asciilifeform: so it isn't a memory leak in the traditional sense
asciilifeform: you can't do anything with them, except a) discard b) store in hope of gluing the chain together later
asciilifeform: that is, anything that sails in for which you don't have an immediate ancestory
ben_vulpes: omg it strikes me that there isn't a blocktree visualizer that i'm aware of
mats: kakobrekla: nah, you won't even notice it
ben_vulpes: http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=30-01-2015#998118 << constant refrain in fiatcorp: "no billing for poops! this isn't accenture." ☝︎
mircea_popescu: mats and on top of that, you can reuse addresses for as long as the bet didn't close.
ben_vulpes: <asciilifeform> [] ^ condemned to pay infinite fine, and to use only microshit << i don't see the m$ requirement
mircea_popescu: decimation: why don't these kind of people with a brain just leave the country? <<< i dunno decimation. why don't they ?
mircea_popescu: yeah srsly, just buy another box if you can't stop fucking with it
asciilifeform: and if can't find, will create plausible scene.
mircea_popescu: trust in your t-34 with non-interchangeable parts and random fabrication defects
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: it can't fly with 0.5.3.1 as it presently lives.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: you can't even begin to fathom how true this is
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform as i said before, it's a kudge to fix another kludge. we don't really wnat any of it.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell phillipsjk "run into the ground" ? lay off the pipe, man. you don't have enough disposable income to cover my harem's feminine hygiene products bill.
danielpbarron: and who were you btw, forgive me i can't recall who you were
BingoBoingo: It isn't so bad, but you need to keep antacid tablets on you. The last thing you want is world induced dyspepsia affecting your composure.
metsuno: I didn't read it that carefully
metsuno: Why don't I see more pseudonymity here?
assbot: Dinner time. http://t.co/byNpmBnFRU
trinque: can't recall the text of it but really... "school's out forever" level stuff, nothing terrible
mike_c: as update, my 0 orphan test didn't go anywhere (stopped cold at block 500). So I'm trying now with a 50 block orphan cache. I think the right number is proportional to the # of connections you have.
assbot: i'm an OG troll.. this was from 15 years ago today.. i'll still be at it in another 15 years http://t.co/wURemoBAKY
asciilifeform: usa is a tar pit the likes of which cannot be imagined by folks unfamiliar with the subject. those without money - cannot afford to make even basic preparations to flee; those with some - e.g., with a profession - know full well that they are not needed or wanted outside of the usg sphere of influence; those with serious money - understand (or sometimes don't) that their 'wealth' is really a creature of usg, and really lives i
decimation: the real problem with us 'gulag' system isn't really the jail term, etc
decimation: why don't these kind of people with a brain just leave the country?
asciilifeform: it's rather puzzling why they haven't reached the point where the condemned is required to wear a wireless microphone, camera, and shock collar
pete_dushenski: jurov hmm. i don't believe that there's a requirement to publish annual reports for private corporations.
felipelalli: asciilifeform: isn't that part of assbot wrote by you?
asciilifeform: felipelalli: could be turned off, would take five seconds. but it isn't my search engine
asciilifeform: pete_dushenski: why won't be there ?
pete_dushenski: mike_c even though i won't be there, that's a sublime idea
asciilifeform: felipelalli: i didn't write it. and it's a piece of shit.
thestringpuller: as long as his count doesn't go above mircea_popescu
felipelalli: would work similar as silver works to the economy (silver have ~ 777B market cap in a quick search I just made, not too much compared with gold but it is enough). Even if this coin have only 5 or 6% of total bitcoin value, it could be useful to "don't stop the world" when bitcoin is under attack or maintenance. --- If I am wrong about that, I could write about what this is a bad idea and altcoins are bad at all.
felipelalli: to "confiscated" the gold (I heard about that but I have to study more deeply). I came to this conclusion because I know bitcoin can't be available 24/7 forever. It will eventually fail in some situation (for example during a bad made hard fork - either because Gavin's gang spoiled or not) and at that time everybody should already is using some strong second coin to be used as backup during a temporary "bitcoin blackout". I think this coin
felipelalli: Then, I can see you guys are talking something about altcoins (I couldn't follow everything), and by change I've been thinking all day about something related to write an article. Actually I've been thinking about it from a long time ago, and the subject is: << the importance (or not) of a strong "second" coin >> and I'd love to read the most I could about it (altcoins, sidechain, and related) and I'm sure you guys have have a plenty of
felipelalli: Hi gang noise! :] (sorry if I can't express myself very well in English) First of all, I want to apologize for that "gavin day", really sorry about that.
BingoBoingo: Surprised it hasn't ate the dogs
davout: BingoBoingo: hah yeah, i didn't notice at first but it does look like it
trinque: hey that doesn't even make me mad
trinque: I don't see why we're still doing objects
davout: each time i hear about java i can't help but picture these SomeObjectFactoryBuilder.getObjectFactory().getObject()
trinque: I'm oop racist so don't mind me
trinque: yeh I don't tend to like these middle layers
jurov: 90% of migrations isn't about schema, but about data
jurov: schema is subject to change irl and there be dragons. but i presume with btc it isn't a problem, no changes expected
trinque: this idea for example that schema's too hard! the fuck?! like building the lack of schema into each query isn't infinitely worse?
davout: trinque: a lot of rdbms will let you do relational algebra, it's just that people don't use it
jurov: http://www.bloombergview.com/articles/2015-01-23/capital-one-fraud-researchers-may-also-have-done-some-fraud << if you haven't seen redacted sql query before
assbot: Flabbergasted. Bulk of txns to Ulbricht's wallets weren't tumbled, can be traced directly to Silk Road. /hashtag/SilkRoadTrial?src=hash
pete_dushenski: ^for those like me who didn't know
mircea_popescu: davout, fluffypony < i don't think bitcoin reference supports either nlocktime or multisig.
mircea_popescu: in case it's not clear, no anything authored by hearn may ever be merged into anything. i don't care what it is. the dog learns to shine shoes or do carpentry or whatever, but he does not work wioth computers anymore.
mircea_popescu: "btcd won’t be supporting the command because it is completely unauthenticated and insecure as pointed out numerous times on the initial pull request. In response to these concerns, a section entitled “Authentication” was added to the BIP which attempts to address the concerns by simply calling them out along with some potential modifications that could happen in the future. However, we prefer to wait until the t
cazalla: it's spanish for grandfather isn't it?
ben_vulpes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_udqEp_YR4#t=23
ben_vulpes: davout shouldn't even be a concern for a "node"
davout: ben_vulpes: bitcoind doesn't provide any way to retrieve a list of unspent outs for a key that's not in your wallet
davout: trinque: if you import a private key into bitcoind you'll get the 'listunspent' call, don't know about btcd
trinque: since the thing publishes once an hour, rolling forward doesn't seem that big a deal
davout: TheNewDeal: blockchain.info failed miserably at detecting them for a while, don't know if that's changed since, but afaik it's perfectly standard, and nodes will relay them
davout: TheNewDeal: i don't think so
TheNewDeal: davout , isn't p2sh nonstandard ?
davout: i don't know shit about this one
davout: fluffypony: balance(t) <-- fixed :-)
cazalla: mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo fwiw, you're both prolly making too much of this. <<< not reary, i don't think anyone made a big deal of it, but i'm thankful BingoBoingo and danielpbarron were able to point out this guy's lies same day i left for holidays
mod6: well, for instance if you received the blocks out of order, and then you got the child of 144,000 a few after some others, then it can't continue
mod6: well, if he removed the entire orphanMap, then it if the chain split off and became the new best chain, it can't move forward.
ben_vulpes: i don't have a contract with those people, i'm not bound by any line of text they write.
mike_c: asciilifeform: the answer was it ran all night and didn't do a damn thing.
mod6: we want to get this thing running on openbsd, but in the 5 minutes i looked at it, iirc there was a database version change and maybe another thing or two that needed to change. can't recall off the bat.
mod6: asciilifeform: hey, does your build script build the R.I. on obsd? (haven't had a chance to try it yet)
ben_vulpes: <mircea_popescu> asciilifeform fun fact : 50% of america dreams of but doesn't own and can't afford a laptop. << tablets, "smartphones"
thestringpuller: I wouldn't be surprised if the price shot up to 700 for one day.
davout: asciilifeform: "the 'orphans' thing will have to be cured." <<< doesn't the whole thing work that way because you can't request peers to give you blocks matching a certain height in their chain?
mircea_popescu: you won't know until someone brings some white stuff indoors.
thestringpuller: Except when someone who doesn't deserve money wins, and then you find them in a ditch somewhere with 5 needles in there arm and a crack pipe in their mouth.
lobbes: lol >> "Then the alt gave me positive trust. I didn't ask for it!!"
danielpbarron: *I* don't use it, but I leave ratings in there sometimes for people who do use it
mats: on my mobile tho so i can't check
nubbins`: "we know it won't solve the problem, but a huge FUCK YOU to our customers will discourage competitors from messing with us again"
mats: " we're aware that this won't stop Chinese to copy our product, but this step gives a sign that we're not happy with it. This is more about a moral urge to their customers."
asciilifeform: when they don't grow little legs at customs office
mircea_popescu hasn't looked into things.
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: there was also a memorable house that wasn't level.
