a buncha files.
phf: asciilifeform: do you have
a gnupg1 version, that can be used as
a trb-like base? i want to go through an execise of reading
a diff between some version that can be relied on with all the disclaimers and whatever's in the trunk
mircea_popescu: might be the same big-socialist-party candidate stupid enough to run on
a panglossian ticket for first term.
mircea_popescu: "oh it's walmart's fault". no bitch, it's your fault for thinking joe's daddy may not bitchslap joe's mommy, and teachers shouldn't keep
a leather whip by the markbook just in case, and so on and so forth.
mircea_popescu: at some point libtards will have to wake up to the realisation that their implementation of freedom, for all its warts, has created
a bunch of idiots, who are good for nothing but to shoplift and maaaaybe assault.
mircea_popescu: so what the fuck IS the police there for and why the fuck is
a private corp's job to "fight crime" and why the everloving fuck would they pay taxes if they're supposed to fight crime on their own anwyay
mircea_popescu: Robert Rohloff,
a 34-year police veteran who has to worry about staffing, budgets, and patrolling the busiest commercial district in Tulsa, says theres nothing funny about Walmarts impact on public safety. He cant believe, he says, that
a multibillion-dollar corporation isnt doing more to stop crime. Instead, he says, it offloads the job to the police at taxpayers expense."
mircea_popescu: the interbitcoin was
a lot tighterly knit five years ago, chiefly because much fewer "business" tards.
mircea_popescu: dumb shit, was all the rage among
a certain set
a few years ago.
ben_vulpes: the kapersky blog attempts to append to the pastebuffer with js anything copied from
a page on "threatpost.com"
danielpbarron:
a courtesy that might cause
a block to be orphaned, i guess is the primary reason to no actually enforce it
mircea_popescu: seeing how they're oft typed by hand, it's
a common courtesy.
danielpbarron: so invalid address is
a thing like nlock is
a thing. What is the republic's take on that? I know nlock isn't well regarded, but what is the harm in rejecting invalid address? or is there no such thing as an invalid address?
BingoBoingo: <danielpbarron> why do people go to the trouble of making burn addresses that have valid checksums if such
a thing isn't enforced by consensus rules? << Because you can either make baby or you can make baby but feed girl levaqin while baby is baking.
danielpbarron: why do people go to the trouble of making burn addresses that have valid checksums if such
a thing isn't enforced by consensus rules?
danielpbarron: "Bitcoin doesn't enforce checksums at the protocol level either." << is this true?
A block that includes
a transaction which spends to an address with an invalid checksum can be considered valid?
mircea_popescu:
a cool. neways, ima be off to... well things, but ima be back in
a few hours in case anyone actually shows up. ta da.
shinohai: Just noticed I had used the <
a> tags, replaced with BBcode nau
phf: william gibson predicted everything, i claim as far as futurists go, he's been on point for
a few decades now
ben_vulpes: i haven't seen
a vial prepared in any other way in over
a year
a111: Logged on 2016-08-19 12:40 mircea_popescu: so on other news, i am writing teh republic's "cia factbook", and on the matter of gdp i would like to have an estimate of the "fair market value of the total time donated to republic during 2015" in the estimation of everyone involved. detailed is better, but nothing over
a page omg.
shinohai: kk mircea_popescu ... I'll find relevant section and make up
a post
mircea_popescu: shinohai i need some noobs to labour for me in eulora. put
a post up wherever it fits, jobs board if they have it ? saying that i'll pay 1 bitcent / 2 hours of work. first task is to get gpg key made and registered with deedbot after which install game and ask for acct. once they're in they get the first bitcent, after which they'll get tasks.
mircea_popescu: first case of koch-gpg / openshit-ssh keys sharing
a factor. pity it's such
a lulzy one, HOWEVER, it does make the "sks error" nonsense just
a little more lulzy.
trinque: k, ha,
a chick on out cruise said the same
trinque: voy
a reemplazar wiki de mierda con wp-mp
mircea_popescu: znort987 deedbot has
a json for that, lemme find it for it
shinohai: mircea_popescu: I spoke with mod6 about
a v-style wot viewer, now may be the time to expound upon said idea.
mircea_popescu: speaking of which... who wants to make
a visualizer already ? i tried emailing the guy months ago but no answer.
mircea_popescu: that's the mechanismcurrently ; mike_c- made
a visualizer but it was never updated, so it has old/assbot data.
znort987: or more practically, is there
a page where the wot as used in #trilema can be explored ?
a111: Logged on 2016-08-20 21:17 mod6: the goal is and remains this: get the trb build infrastructure completed, once and for all. close out this portion of development with the completion of that (Makefiles) and
a subsequent tying vpatch to mark the milestone.
a111: Logged on 2016-08-21 00:57 phf: but yeah self control is important, and i think
a lot of people who do it through their lives turn into alcoholics
a111: Logged on 2016-08-21 00:53 phf: russians have
a concept for it, "квасить" to drink socially in
a controlled manner. failure at квас is seen as
a character flaw.
a grownup is supposed to go be able to go at it for like 5-6 hours without the embarrassing "passing out face first into the salad" eventual outcome. when you're in your 30s, you should be able to do it for 5-6 hours, then be able to freshen up and do work, etc.
BingoBoingo: Are you sure? Maybe he waited tables until sucking the right dick? Entertainment is
a complex industry.
mircea_popescu: no idea what's with the "i'm
a professional waiter" arm position, but anywya.
BingoBoingo: shinohai: Well jurov is
a high quality lord. Excells at fixing things that nobody thought could be broken until alf tried using them. Jurov is
a very patient lord.
shinohai: Alf is
a vengeful God, this is no better than Jehovah.
shinohai: tmsr is the closet thing to
a higher power I acknowledge true
BingoBoingo: But now thank to the 12 steps I have stolen Inner Peace from my higher power, and I will curb stomp
a bitch if they try to steal my serenity.
shinohai: I just got tired of being
a slob
BingoBoingo: Anyways continuing to drink for me while also living in USSA at
a point became unacceptable according to the risk calculator.
phf: but yeah self control is important, and i think
a lot of people who do it through their lives turn into alcoholics
☟︎ BingoBoingo: Or you're
a teenage girl. Apparently that sends quite
a few spiraling towards
a bottom.

☟︎ BingoBoingo: And fuck your two bottles of wine crap unless the wine has
a name like Thunderbird, Night Train, or Sysco
BingoBoingo: Or do you plan on having three beers to celebrate graduating from socialist US school only to discover you have become
a Lord of the Greatest Republic.
shinohai: Well I have
a bottle or 2 of wine on occasion, then maybe not touch
a drop for 2-3 months.
BingoBoingo kinda envies those who can do sobriety as
a part time thing. And russians who can be sober even while drinking.
BingoBoingo: ;;later tell covertress Why would anyone not want to be seen here? The light here is very flattering. Anyways there are only two things
a person NEEDS in their life. The Most Serene Republic and Sobriety. The second one is debatable.

mircea_popescu: we'll end up with
a ring of axxx's working together to mutually inhibit each other so only one thing ends in logs. like retina cells.

mircea_popescu: we'll end up with
a ring of axxx's working together to mutually inhibit each other so only one thing ends in logs. like retina cells.
mircea_popescu: and that rather goes for you too : the log is here to make you less stupid. spend at least 100x as much reading it as you spend writing into it, and certainly do not eat anything in any day you've not read at least
a thousand lines.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell bingoboingo "Following the news of
a serious RNG bug affecting all GPG versions
a low energy shitgnome campaign of apologetics and "not that bad" followed." << can i get
a "The fact that hundreds of GPG keys have been Phuctored in the past year has, of course, nothing to do with all this." added ?
mircea_popescu: "On Thursday following their acquisition by Univision, Gawker media announced that their former flagship Gawker.com would be shuttered next week." << lol. "all the 'jouralists' have been reclassified as actresses (which is what they always hoped for anyway), playing ugly betty in the 194 unilever sitcoms currently under production. this translates to
a 85% pay increase across the board, and their spoken lines will be drastica
covertress: mircea_popescu, I bring fond greetings from
a gun-toting, tannerite-shooting, ivy league, master of dining ettiquette.
phf: mod6: i don't think you understood what we were saying, but certainly nobody's expecting you to grind vpatches as
a "service to others", so please don't
mod6: danielpbarron: here's
a qq, were you ever able to successfully build bitcoind with the build-bitcoind-V99994.sh ?
mod6: the goal is and remains this: get the trb build infrastructure completed, once and for all. close out this portion of development with the completion of that (Makefiles) and
a subsequent tying vpatch to mark the milestone.
☟︎☟︎ mod6: and i guess furthermore, if it's needed for me to regrind these four vpatches as
a service for others...
danielpbarron: for example, barehanded gathering all day. have an elder set you up with some bits and threads and check back in
a week
mod6: anyway, im sure it would work fine. at the same time, not sure i'd want to spend hours/days setting up
a box for eulora.
mod6: i'd say that gentoo would probably make
a fine box for eulora.
danielpbarron: i can't imagine there is
a better environment to build and run it in, granted getting
a working gentoo might be the hard part
mod6: so if i see the "dump priv key" patch out there on btcbase or found somewhere else (it's not included in the patches in thebitcoin.foundation's site), then i'd pull that vpatch down, regrind it myself, and place it into patches where I can apply it myself as
a "WILD" patch.
mod6: <+phf> asciilifeform: i did, he said something about "this being work in progress and don't want to commit" or somesuch << i could regrind them, yeah. ideally, each who want to use these unexamined items should do so on their own accord, placing them in their patches directory as
a "WILD" patch. Until the day when the foundation moves forward and folds them in after examination and testing.
☟︎ mod6: pposed to replace it <+phf> instead. obviously this doesn't make for pretty graphs, so i don't upload it << yup. there's
a planned vpatch for this. bunch of discussions. just been focusing my attention on trb build stuff lately.
mod6: <+phf> there's periodically things that claim to be vpatches, but they don't have genesis. i think
a notable example of that is v.pl, which has been published as v.pl, and then followed up by vpatches that are supposed to superseded each other rather than form
a chain. generally i've seen that pattern
a lot, people publish something, than publish
a second vpatch, that doesn't build on previous vpatch, but su
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> so if i want to publish
a vpatch today, how do i go about it ? <+jurov> ofc you can send it to mailing list. and to phf via deedbot, and maybe some other places i dunno? << i always just send mine to the ml
mod6: <+diana_coman> hi mod6 how's that eulora-box thing going? :D << hi!! it's not going exactly yet. been kinda caught up. i need to get
a box for that. will do, soonish.
shinohai: Yeah kind of
a local thing. I have
a really hard time finding it in other places.
mod6: is that
a local wine deal?
mod6: ah, good. been raining
a ton up here. good for the veggies though.
shinohai: I literally can't make
a story on anything last few days
mircea_popescu: for that matter, i daresay i've seen the sad fruits of "results-oriented programming" for lo these many decades, and in honestly i could have done with
a whole lot less of it.
mircea_popescu: i get it, it's pretty fucking revolutionarily wild, and taken seriously teh mind needs some time to digest the whole thing. not
a problem. but in the meanwhile gotta keep things clean so the poor soul actually has
a port to come to when he comes.
mircea_popescu: the process will not have been equal ; and process interests me. you can go take the results behind
a shed and shoot them./
