_popescu: "20. Notice the masochistic tendency of leftist tactics. Leftists protest by lying down in front of vehicles, they intentionally provoke police or racists to abuse them, etc. These tactics may often be effective, but many leftists use them not as a means to an end but because they PREFER masochistic tactics. Self-hatred is a leftist trait."

_popescu: "UO is very much a view into the world that could have been, if WOW hadn't come along and MMORPGs became driven by addiction mechanics instead of depth. (I do not necessarily mean that as a perjorative... I take my own hits on the bong of grind-based (J/W/T)RPGs sometimes. But it's a fair description.)"

_dushenski: I had this notion regarding the bums all over portland, that someone should take them to nearby farms for day labor in exchange for meals, showers, and somewhere to be warehoused at night.
assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 17:57:51; ascii
_field: this is amply described in the literature
assbot: Logged on 03-07-2015 17:45:53; pete
_dushenski: punkman: ah yes, how farmers don't own the tools of their trade. sad story, that.

_popescu: 3. in order to avoid the situation that happened tonight, a supposed "voting" mechanism was deployed where people switched an irrelevant byte in the blocks they mined, to go from 2 to 3, to indicate they are ready and willing to follow the new rules.
cazalla: mircea
_popescu, nope, good water in the evening and morning but the 4-5 days of 40-44 degree heat toppled em
punkman: we need something that stores these forks for inspection and replaying. I think ben
_vulpes had a thread about that
mircea_popescu: ascii
_modem more specifically put : currently everyone is mining with a "god given" known tx of 25 btc + whatever they pick off the ground.

_popescu's mega-debugger
mircea_popescu: ascii
_modem where were the daily forks b/w january (?) and now ? << costs a little to make one, nobody cared enough. (also lots of manual intervention and general ducttaping at the miner and relayer level - bitcoin is quickly becoming an excellent makework tool, keeping idiots both employed and in a delusion of importance)

_popescu> here's what's the idea : after botching the soft fork, it seems illogical that the entire bip system should continue at all. << Very much agreed. If someone wants to change something they should write to The Foundation's btc-dev mailing list and submit a patch. And if they can't because they're not in the WoT, well they're not in the WoT. They can make a personal appeal here in person.

_dushenski: looks like b.info is hopelessly stuck on showing only orphaned blocks
pete_dushenski: mircea
_popescu: it's the broken window/car accident economy
pete_dushenski: mircea
_popescu: ok, but assuming those 6 invalid orphan blocks are off on their own, how is it that some sites (eg. bc.i) are reporting that this foundation of sand is still being built on ?
mircea_popescu: pete
_dushenski 6 blocks wouldn't necessarily be visible. even three deep reorgs happen with some regularity naturally.
