benkay: asciilifeform, mircea_popescu: google did
the same
thing with python. spot/coopt an emerging
thingy of whatever quality, hire its writers and most active folks, all of a sudden you have access
to
the best
talent in newlang world. speshully
the young and easily bamboozled, who get
to 'work' 'closely' with
the designers of
their language.
Apocalyptic: kakobrekla,
tell your guys
they can add
timeouts on queries on external websites you know
jurov: if for nothing else,
there need
to be more sane voices
jurov: i don't write very often on
the blog. but it's good
to have.
cedivad: basically by forcing
them
to disclose
the delivery dates in
the contract with
TSMC you could have a smoking gun
to use against
them in a fraud proceeding
mircea_popescu: cedivad
the reason i say blog is because you seem
to have a lot
to
talk about. bitcointalk, hashfast, etc.
cedivad: and what should i
talk about? hashfast? :D
cedivad: nothing is scandalous anymore in
the mining industry... what i would love is
to see
them stopped and in jail
mircea_popescu: basically
the list of mining companies
that don't also
turn scams is vanishingly slow.
cedivad: and in
the meanwhile
they are selling
their chips
to
third parties (like vmc)
cedivad: they are using
third parties
to claim
to be bankrupted (using it as an excuse for
the delay in shipping)
mircea_popescu: ah so
they shipped some units earlier in
the year
to lure more orders
then just stopped basically ?!
cedivad: they haven't delivered shit during
the last month or
two;
they are mining
themselves probably
mircea_popescu: o wow srsly ? i
thought
they were actually delivering.
cedivad: nah, i simply never received
them, you know, arbitration against
them,
they will probably
take everything
they can out of
the company and declare bankrupcty
cedivad: btw i fixed
the stupid bug
that made bitcointa.lk lose posts every night starting from 3am
cedivad: well, i've nothing smart
to say, i'm sorry. I've just finished
to write a complaint i will send
to
the public inquiry unit of california, nothing interesting (hashfast sucks)
cedivad: my lazy client is simply reconnecting automatically every
time
that i power it on/off... Not sure of why i should be "voiced"?
assbot: Voice for cedivad extended
to 30 minutes.
gribble: Error: User doesn't exist in
the Rating or GPG databases. User must be GPG-registered
to receive ratings.
mircea_popescu: ;;later
tell cedivad
to be voiced in #bitcoin-assets, first you id with gribble,
then you pm assbot !up
fluffypony: "Why
this matters. Bitcoin is powerful. Bitcoin is wealthy. We do not need
to make
these people our enemies."
moiety: i
think
they should host btctalk over in china for a bit
moiety: actually i dont want
to know
moiety: dafuq is going in
that picture?
mircea_popescu: "do what a buncha dorks getting in your face
tell you
to"
mircea_popescu: fluffypony
this always happens. girl decides
to fly over
to be my slave, family hosts an intervention, we laugh at it afterwards.
fluffypony: so she hangs around whining about how much
the place sucks and she wants
to go home
mircea_popescu: i wish
to see it sometime. but anyway, no, just
the notion of attaching penalty
to speech makes me want
to attach speech
to
the entire matter.
jurov: or what inspired you for
that blog
jurov: mircea u got cockblocked
too or what?
mircea_popescu: now
that's a fucking accomplishment, excess flood while muted. guy prolly went all spaz
jurov: yea, and it strives
to avoid evil ASICs but as presumably
they can't
think of one, it will start with a placeholder one
jurov: yet i don't see a good nethod
to verify gas expended without redoing whoiole computation
bounce: but! aristocracy! can't make
things
too easy, don't you know.
jurov: such as,
turing-complete computations are bounded and paid for by "gas" allocated
jurov: it
took assbot 5 minutes
to give me voice
jurov: hm, seems like mircea_popescu recently got a propensity
to solutions
that break under bad external circumstances
bounce: just read
through defusedxml's list of
things
that can go wrong with xml. just have
to wonder how
those financial
types using FIX handle
this, if at all.
mircea_popescu: i'll have you known
that
the biggest endian fail is MIDDLE ENDIAN
mircea_popescu: also, fresh from
the pointless factoids department: every day
this week days is gonna be
the same backwards. 4/12/14
through 4/19/14.
mircea_popescu: jurov: but he had no
time for completely stupid reasons << aww!
bounce: ``[Erik Naggum] disliked C++,
though not as much as he hated Perl, but he generally
thought
that C++ was
too difficult
to understand
to such a degree
that only about 5 people on
the planet
truly understood it and hence was of little value for humanity.'' (wikipedia) -- how's
that for an elitist language, eh. jealous much? *gdr*
assbot: Last
trade for S.MPOE on MPEX was at 0.00096254 BTC [-]
moiety: nickserv is having a stroke
today
jurov: and
then you can enjoy
the privileges
jurov: it's really not so hard, just become slave
to a piece of shitty code
that has something
to do with mpex
cgcardona_: I'm still
trying
to fully understand
the wot
jurov: bribe someone
that's in assbot's
trust list?
jurov: but he had no
time for completely stupid reasons
jurov: most likely explanation is
that i'm in love and wanted
to be with him yest
moiety: jurov: what
time is it with you? ive not slept wither, 7:09 here
cgcardona_: I just shut down my client for
the whole
time cause I was all alone
mircea_popescu: the gribble-assbot relation is somewhat akin
to
the google-dns relation. one predates
the other, and rather
than it be reimplemented gratuitously, it's just used isntead.
artifexd: assbot queries gribble for your ident status and gettrust relation
to assbot.
cgcardona_: gotta geotag all your frustration.
That way you'll never misplace it.
moiety has misplaced frustration at
this film
cgcardona_: so what exactly is
the assbot -> gribble relationship? I auth/verify w/ gribble but
the assbot is
the room's bot? Any reason for having
two bots for
that?
cgcardona_: This is
the first
time I've needed
to verify my identity w/ a chatroom in
that way. seems like a pretty powerful idea.
mircea_popescu: khersonus wanted
to do options just as
the spot market is disintegrating.
kakobrekla: with all
the account locking, i wouldnt be so surprised
gribble: Bitstamp BTCUSD

assbot: Voicing
TestingUnoDosTre for 30 minutes.
bitcoinpete: and reputation
to be established when all
their
thingies break and
they remember
that
this was foretold
kakobrekla: i dunno if
there is success
to be had
there
bitcoinpete: much bowing
to
the foundation/ethereum/vc moolah/blahblah
bitcoinpete: there's much
teaching/unteaching
to do here
bitcoinpete: i've definitely been cracking a few eggs around
the bitcoin expo in
toronto.
bitcoinpete: kakobrekla: also, pleasantly surprised
to see myself on
the aristocratic side of you/assetsvoice
