mircea_popescu:
i suppose in its own terms it makes sense, a sort of solipsistic revolt of the anal child. nevertheless... let jesus save them or whatever, we're busy.
mircea_popescu: well - it's what it is. there's a dedicated loafer community out there, adamant on "
i shall not be useful". best filter them out asap.
mircea_popescu: oh and mod6 - suppose
i want to add the observation that really, the wallet functionality and the "caching transactions" functionality should be separated in bitcoin - there's no conceivable reason to store the latter in the former for instance. how would
i go about adding this to the bitcoin tickets ? ask you ? do something myslef ?
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and fuck do
i love this dual format omfg. how did people irc pre blogs ? how do people blog w/o irc ?
i guess they use twitter... but shit, it doesn't compare.
mircea_popescu:
i suppose their respective gatherings are the sum total of such difference : less clothing, more sunshine and more perfume where the girlies gather. more armpit stains and bad shirts and neon lighting where the boys gather.
Framedragger: but yeah,
i meant entrepreneur not in the etymological/definitional sense, but in the "currently attached bundle of crappy connotations" sense
Framedragger: actually
i'm sure there are some legit poets on LJ, heh.
mircea_popescu:
i suppose this is as good a plan as it gets in the context.
phf: asciilifeform: you were right, four quarters is a large shtf project, using hippie and music festivals to find their operations.
i can see why orlol would like it
Framedragger: right, which allows for transitivity of one sort or another,
i suppose. fair enough
Framedragger: didn't think it was overcomplicated tbh,
i mean, not this particular part anyway
Framedragger:
i'll sketch mp's scheme on a whiteboard tomorrow or thereabouts, so
i can say that
i get the picture. makes sense overall, in terms of no chans as such, etc etc.
Framedragger: (aha, "actual order" of messages is not one of the requirements; interesting;
i suppose folks who maintain that breaking order integrity == breaking s3curity!! are kind of derpy anyway, in the sense that if you have something critical to communicate, you'll find other means to derive integrity, etc.)
mircea_popescu: anyway,
i don't think ips were ever seriously considered as identity.
Framedragger: (
i mean, ip address as it appears in an IP header)
Framedragger: (
i hope you lost any hope in ip address in packet as a form of identity/proof/whatnot, though!)
Framedragger: both,
i suppose, or either would be interesting. gossipd probably provides decent constraints and framework for thought, so might as well stick to that
Framedragger: hm, see
i put more weight on the "can't encrypt if permanent key is compromised" part in pfs
mircea_popescu: otr is ~broken,
i wouldn't want it as an example for functional pfs.
Framedragger: all
i meant was that you e.g. have an otr fingerprint - which represents a permanent keypair. but your otr client establishes ephemeral key per each session
Framedragger: ephermeral keys are usually used for encryption;
i don't think the functions of permanent vs. ephermeral keys are mutually exclusive at all
Framedragger: asciilifeform: won't argue as it's obvious that it'd be fruitless.
i can certainly see the viewpoint. "what he pushes == snakeoil" is a strong accusation tho. however,
i'm not prepared to provide defence till
i'm old, weary, and wise (or at least till
i'm old)
thestringpuller: Framedragger:
I was being hyperbolic. My point was more that the mass adoption crowd is too stupid to regulate themselves, and as such would like to punish all of Bitcoin.
Framedragger: the mapping between the sets is not necessarily bijective,
i.e. one-to-one
Framedragger:
i would maintain that the socialist set and the doesnt-deserve-bitcoin set are not necessarily mutually exclusive; at least this cannot be known a priori. mp et al. would argue that it can; so be it
thestringpuller:
I refuse to live in a world where my hard work is plundered by mr. millenial who was sucking on his momma's tit until 22.
Framedragger: vc: cool, and
i remember you saying this the first time otherwise wouldn't have done it, just wanted to let you know that these particular scans won't (*completely*) trash the reputation of the currently assigned ipv4 :)
vc: Framedragger:
I'm cool with port scans, neither me nor my parent host cares
Framedragger: right
i'll stop diddling with mac addresses and do some actual packet-sending work heh
vc:
I filter mac addresses...
Framedragger: with botched mac addr so shouldnt even reach internet,
i think theyre getting dropped at some local router
vc: Framedragger:
I have definitely seen waaaaaaay over 10k packets / s on these interfaces so that's not the problem
Framedragger: vc: just fyi, there appears to be a ~10k packets / second limit somewhere upstream, are you aware of anything of the kind?
i'm just running some self-tests (using a program which has its own TCP stack,
i.e. no use of kernel networking / sockets). same tests produce at least 10 times as much elsewhere. cpu not the bottleneck. just wondering what it could be
Framedragger: hehe yeah, ssh keys, welcome to idiotland
i guess
vc: and if the 140 slots fill up
I will purchase the other 144GB memory which is the last possible upgrade for the server
vc:
I'm currently planning on getting 144GB memory and 6 more SSDs
vc:
I'm going to have to put like a tutorial on the checkout page
mod6:
i suppose that can be arranged.
mod6: or, if you'd rather
i signed a statement saying such,
i can do that when they get distributed.
jurov: sorry,
i can't. they are meant to be used strictly for hookers and blow.
mod6: but
i'd like to send the proceeds to The Bitcoin Foundation
mod6:
i haven't, yet. but
i wrote an article. so
i presume they will give me a few.
Framedragger: by which
i mean, any crazy customer support / admin stories thus far? :)
jurov: ;;later tell BingoBoingo yes
i'll gladly help anyone to dispose of their shares ;)
mircea_popescu: so here's what
i'd do if
i were actually running any of the studios :
mircea_popescu: not like
i'm doing anything ; there's the antispam thing that's documented in an article ; also the xml-rpc hardening idem documented. that's about it. haven't touched any of it in years.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo trilema works ok with trackbacks, but
i guess it's one of the few.
mircea_popescu:
i wonder if the defeated hillary will sue trump for "allienation of affection" lmao
shinohai:
I thought
I was looking at a video of Alabama there for a minute until
I saw Chinese writing.
mircea_popescu: except that works when
i do it, and who the fuck is gawker.
shinohai:
I guess it is an attempt to plug sinking ship with ice cubes.
shinohai:
I'm flabbergasted too. Last time
I checked you could still bankroll whoever you wanted to.
mircea_popescu would much prefer a davout -run liquidation. at least it'd establish the item's true value. which,
i suspect, is somewhere south of 80 btc.
mircea_popescu:
i suspect it's how the original drawings were inspired actually.
mircea_popescu: that way if anyone asks me what the cat's name is
i'ma say "it's cat ophelia."
mircea_popescu: in other news
i've decided that if
i ever get a cat
i'ma name it ophelia
mod6: when
i come up with a scheme
i'll mention it in here.
tb0t: Project: trb, ID: 3, Type:
I, Subject: Further investigate a solution for mem leak/fragmentation, Antecedents: , Notes: An OOM error occurs from mempool tx's that are never deallocated. A well defined and researched plan need to emerge from this investigation.
mod6: %e trb 3
I "Further investigate a solution for mem leak/fragmentation" "An OOM error occurs from mempool tx's that are never deallocated. A well defined and researched plan need to emerge from this investigation."
mircea_popescu:
i'd much rather take a new york or san francisco that had a nuke blown overhead ; than the exact same new york or san francisco that had socialist propaganda blown overhead. the former's much easier to clean up than the latter.
shinohai:
I got Pierre Rochard triggered on twitter as we speak because
I dared to call it a scam more or less.
mircea_popescu: what
i want to know is, who's going to take out ~600mn worth of shit these idiots stuck in the head of ignorant imbecile sub-canadians for the past decade ?
mod6: ok.
i'll think on this, there's something we can do, im sure.
mod6: hey, sorry to interrupt this. but one of my buddies is buying a house downthe road, and
i gotta to view it here in like 2 minutes. but
i'll be back all day after that.
mircea_popescu: now obviously, we could change it to take dpaste input ? the only snag is,
i dunno we want LONG tickets anyway.
mod6: hrm.
i'll have to see what
I can do about that -- not sure if
i can make it longer than a canonical irc line, but it should be at least that long
mod6: ok. so what
I was thinking, at least for the quick/dirty method was that lord of a project would update tickets with peoples' submitted vpatches linked either from the ML or if/when accepted. doesn't only relate to TRB obv.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> mod6 should be done BY X. so
i know who to chase. <<
I think if someone wants to put their name on a ticket, ... ok, and they can put a completion date in there.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> also important, suppose
i want to split up a ticket later. what should
i do, delete and re-enter ? << so saythat UCI ticket 7 needs to become two seperate tickets and the original didn't capture what it was supposed to capture;
i would just make a new ticket, and then edit the existing one to reform what would be or seem correct.
mircea_popescu: also important, suppose
i want to split up a ticket later. what should
i do, delete and re-enter ?
mod6: yeah,
i like the idea of just editing the ticket to "DONE"
