mircea_popescu: right or wrong make absolutely no difference, even though it's how the female brain gets caught in this
mircea_popescu: understand something about "declarations" in this vein : they themselves are an attack, if you can't universally enforce them. the us collapsed out of an attempt to declare that "they, not us, are the bad guys" without the actual strength to enforce this ; so did the soviet union, and so does every inept mother who tries to tell her kid what to do out of line.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: yes. what do you want me to do, shit antimatter ingots ?
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform blocks are unique (for storage) so you could compose it out of say height.txid
mircea_popescu: txn is unique within block, not in global space, would at least make some sense.
mircea_popescu: there is that. but his proposed de facto multiindex (block height txn height txid) works.
mircea_popescu: yeah, on contemplation it's not actually used for anything "standard" so to speak, is it.
mircea_popescu: this is an artefact of ancient idiocy, but what can i say.
mircea_popescu: now then : 09f691b2263260e71f363d1db51ff3100d285956a40cc0e4f8c8c2c4a80559b1 spends a4bfa8ab6435ae5f25dae9d89e4eb67dfa94283ca751f393c1ddc5a837bbc31b ; for this purpose it actually uses the genesis block hash.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform it\s |OP_HASH256 6fe28c0ab6f1b372c1a6a246ae63f74f931e8365e15a089c68d6190000000000 OP_EQUAL| (no sig)
☟︎ mircea_popescu: god i'm going to have to delve into the whole pile of ancient history
mircea_popescu: some puzzle bs. you might remember we discussed that whole nonsense recently.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i misstated. it spends bitcoin (from a4bfa8ab6435ae5f25dae9d89e4eb67dfa94283ca751f393c1ddc5a837bbc31b ) for which purpose it needs the genesis block hash
☟︎ mircea_popescu: (ie, if you don't also save the block hash, you can't do some edge cases of (currently mostly unsupported, but historically used) txn.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes take for instance 09f691b2263260e71f363d1db51ff3100d285956a40cc0e4f8c8c2c4a80559b1 : it spends bitcoin produced in the genesis block, and it thereby uses the hash of that block.
☟︎ mircea_popescu:
http://btcbase.org/log/2017-04-05#1637547 << you certainly need the pubkey of the input address, which was back in the day the rationale behind the whole "don't reuse addresses" thing -- the pubkey of an address which has paid before is known ; the pubkey of an address which has not paid before isn't known.
☝︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes pretty sure you also need the block hash somewhere
mircea_popescu: hm. or else it's an indexing problem. ancient links seem to work.
mircea_popescu: i somehow don't believe that thing actually works as long term archiving anymore.
mircea_popescu: heh in other lulz : archive.is apparently purged all trilema saves older than sept 2016.
mircea_popescu: tl;dr tedious poetess grabs some bread and meat for the ancestors. reparations, bitch!!1
mircea_popescu: if anyone had asked the uktards anything it'd even make a difference what they thought.
mircea_popescu: lol ben_vulpes running his kindergarten with proper red/black stars an errythang!
mircea_popescu: there's no scent whatsoever. at all. no runny. no mold. the hunk of petrocheese is entirely undisturbed, as "fresh" as it was when it left the plant, five years ago or whatever.
mircea_popescu: mp takes the item home, and over a dish of oyster mushrooms lightly sauteed opens up the TRIPLE WRAPPED!!111 thing.
mircea_popescu: mp can not possibly resist buying 75% discounted cheese to find out why and wherefore it might have so offended the locals.
mircea_popescu: the items were discounted 25% and now had been discounted 75%!
mircea_popescu: in other sad stories, mp goes to very well appointed market, purchases litany of items. notices chunks of discounted cheese floating around in tub of iced water
mircea_popescu: 50yo whore is in a ditch somewhere, and her teeth in another ditch somewhere els.e
mircea_popescu: think in terms of that cartoon re final cs class at stanford : "and you are the idiots who didn't get hired in 2nd or 3rd year". same deal, whoring is a fine plan for cut-above-rest 16yo. by the time she's 30 she's either married or too rich to care.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes i dunno how much you partake of whores, but 50yos usually have to be special ordered.
mircea_popescu: there's just about no way you'll beat the stupid out of her head before she croaks.
mircea_popescu: we'll leave the "who takes on 50yo new slave" as a question for the ages.
mircea_popescu: shinohai meh, contracts. how the fuck is this supposed to work.
mircea_popescu [tried to] watch emanuelle. holllllly shit pre-internet popculture is terrible.
mircea_popescu: !!rate matthrew garret -10 "former klout expert on paul graham". irredeemable shithead.
mircea_popescu: pretty obvious alphabet co. maintains a whole department of "usg cover provisioning"
mircea_popescu: if memory serves hearn was also merit washed as "something or the other" engineer at google.
mircea_popescu: this guy is fucking talented, it's almost like reading summaries produced by expert sluts! god. he's saving me a lot fo work!
mircea_popescu: "The Muskonauts post their latest launch on Youtube. Hackernews thinks their kids will give a shit whether Elon recycled rockets. The hilarity of Hackernews expectations of the near future is not outweighed by the repetition of the typical Hackernews output on space travel: space is not worth exploring, yes it is, nobody will use this, yes they will, and then six thousand pages of bad economic theory."
mircea_popescu: Maximum Hackernews is achieved as the sentence "I am too stupid to understand the context of academic research" is expressed as "now if you implemented this as a web app, i'd be sharing it with everybody"
mircea_popescu: ke aimless poorly-managed floundering. IRCv3 continues to be a retarded pile of solutions to the wrong problems."
mircea_popescu: "Google continues the war against their own users. The XMPP Memorial Society trades barbs about whose fault it is that a misdesigned overengineered shitshow of a protocol failed to gain traction amongst non-erlang enthusiasts. Every single messaging platform in current existence is held up as Obviously The Future. Hackernews tries to figure out what Google's master plan is, and why Google is working so hard to make it look li
mircea_popescu: wtf was david chapman supposed to have sold for "zillions of dollars" ?!
mircea_popescu: (old and therefore stupid cunt figured she's too good to go in the mud bare cunt, so she took a dress.)
mircea_popescu: you're in scotland after all, what the hell do you care!!1
mircea_popescu: if anyone does, see if the n-gate dude wants to do a qntra weekly ? he sounds just about right.
