mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-31#1474164 << i'll pass :D ☝︎

trinque: hm, I see it

mircea_popescu: "i am here ; therefore". and which it is why it needs absolutely no reflashing either asciilifeform

a111: Logged on 2016-05-31 19:01 trinque: because I am here

a111: Logged on 2016-05-31 18:52 ben_vulpes: a friend of mine recently broke up with his girl of 4+ years, and i realized during conversation about his new dating adventures and the kinds of women he was encountering that i would have patience for approximately zero reeducation at this point in my life.

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-31#1474137 << i can readily see that. even adjusting mentally for "he dun know the half of it!" ☝︎

Framedragger: yeah, i've been prone to this, too, but luckily by applying some "heuristic human computronium" a.k.a. common sense no truly stupid tragedies happened.

a111: Logged on 2016-05-31 18:50 asciilifeform: for instance, i'm about to buy moar display. it will be an lcd. but if mircea_popescu buys another display, it won't be lcd, it'll be a thing where a gurl flips pixels manually.

asciilifeform: 'i will help to connect anyone working on undermining bitcoin with like-minded useful idiots!'

asciilifeform: 'I invite capable programmers from anywhere, including China, to help any of the teams working on open source Bitcoin software, whether that is Classic or Core or Unlimited or bitcore or btcd or ckpool or p2pool or bitcoinj.'

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-01#1474385 << mircea_popescu whole point is that ~my particular lamp~ is still glowing. (i recently bought one of them tritium lamps, it is a good analogy for this actually) ☝︎

Framedragger: not to rain on the parade (not that i could), but isn't it possible such a thing won't ever be found? http://stackoverflow.com/a/3654889 ☟︎☟︎

a111: Logged on 2016-06-01 11:26 mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-31#1474078 << notrly, lost interest after unknown addressed "her ceo" as "jeremy". they're obviously misrepresenting their private relationship, and i have no interest in participating in the banal scenes of fat anglo derps.

Framedragger: asciilifeform: hmh i guess https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merkle%E2%80%93Hellman_knapsack_cryptosystem is np-complete, pity it's broken

asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-06-01#1474379 << i never said to preserve the christian crapola or any other other astrologies. ☝︎

Framedragger: yeah i know the latter, i thought there were additional reasons for preferring c-s here. ok.

asciilifeform: i personally dug up every publicly accessible resource i could think of, where such a unicorn might live, and found none.

asciilifeform: (and i will add that no public implementation wrote it correctly, either.) ☟︎

Framedragger: that's fair. ok. i assume you don't think much of OAEP (i see it mentioned in the logz but only just)

Framedragger: asciilifeform: yeah i've got to that section, interesting, gonna slowly parse it

asciilifeform: Framedragger: but i ought to emphasize for n00bs, cramer-shoup is merely the healthiest horse at this glue factory.

a111: Logged on 2016-05-31 19:45 asciilifeform: i never really liked the idea of a hash.

shinohai: ;;later tell pete_dushenski I'll see if BB can correct said oversight, thanks!

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-31#1474047 << thanks you two, now i'm lost in reading old trilema o.O ☝︎

a111: Logged on 2016-05-30 18:09 phf: apparently those things are really expensive to run. i used to go on potomac with Georgetown liesure boat crowd, and short, 1-2 hour runs, would cost ~~3k in gas, and that was 8-10 years ago

mircea_popescu: i don't think they had actually figured out by the end of the 80s that "everything" is a bad sort of books to have.

a111: Logged on 2016-05-30 18:05 phf: no, but i've seen some extensive libraries in apparatchik homes that i know for a fact nobody read

a111: Logged on 2016-05-30 18:05 asciilifeform: and i imagine it must suck to be the owner of a real airplane landed on cargo cult island, it will promptly be ripped apart for parts to decorate straw planes the moment you look away

mircea_popescu: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-05-30#1473728 << i suspect this is why television ended up shit. argentines love it! ☝︎

pete_dushenski: and with that, i bid ye all bon nuit.

pete_dushenski: BingoBoingo props for being so on your game lately. every time i've seen something remotely bitcoin-related elsewhere on the net lately, i see that qntra already had it covered. liking the terseness atm too.

pete_dushenski: just when i thought i'd be working my way up in years and find myself unable to handle the rigours of hard partying, i wake up sunday morning to find that i feel bloody fantastic and sore only from having worked out the day before.

pete_dushenski: i too, deedbot, apparently respond well to gifts of booze. and how.

deedbot: I only respond to gifts of booze and women.

a111: Logged on 2016-05-31 20:11 phf: i got rid of last=> and added "log" link to search bar, that takes you to /log/ as convenience, which also addresses http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-25#1457428 speak now or..

shinohai: lol. I haven't thought of hamsters in ages.

shinohai: Judging from the flurry of messages I'm getting I think I triggered someone. ☟︎

shinohai: ^ I was gonna do a Qntra on that since it ties into my last article on teh guy, but lazy today.

trinque: I'd use the same to deed teh logz

a111: Logged on 2016-04-25 19:25 pete_dushenski: phf: loving the new search. think you could add a button or link back to the logs so i don't have to diddle the url every time ?

phf: i got rid of last=> and added "log" link to search bar, that takes you to /log/ as convenience, which also addresses http://btcbase.org/log/2016-04-25#1457428 speak now or.. ☝︎☟︎

asciilifeform: also why the fuck should i reveal to world where and in what order shit is in my db.

asciilifeform: i could, say, shit out the index used by the db internally - but then i'd be married to that db

asciilifeform: because i would have to save it somewhere

Framedragger: i'll take a look, thanks..

Framedragger: aha, then i guess you don't really enjoy the fact that gpg uses aes for session key actually? :) ☟︎

asciilifeform: i never really liked the idea of a hash. ☟︎

asciilifeform: i made it a hash of everything including epochal time.

trinque: I'll make no argument that RSS is sane, only that it has a definition

asciilifeform: trinque: i implemented as per your recipe, it ought to work now ?

trinque: obviously here I'm just using some guy's python rss module; while I can go break that to behave, not what I prefer

trinque: phf: right, I would prefer not to account for spec violations

phf: reload particularly needs to be fixed, and it's perhaps 5 lines of code, but requires dropping one large context, and lifting another to do it intentionally. as is whatever fixes done to log str result of background radiation noise like effects of my brain, "i suddenly remember relevant bits, and here's the solution, go write it down"

asciilifeform: for no good reason that i know of.

asciilifeform: and now i can't.

asciilifeform: for instance, i used to be able to read the log by hitting 'reload' ☟︎

asciilifeform: phf: i reject breaking working shit for no reason.

phf: asciilifeform: apropos, i remained surprised you reject naggum's suggestion to iso everywhere

phf: i wrote a bunch of rss tooling and dealing with non-unique ids is a bitch. i usually hash entry for entries with blank ids, and return that as key.

trinque: yes, I can be a contrarian too.

ben_vulpes: also i regularly go out of spec

ben_vulpes: i would rather cut metal than spend my days tuning lathes.

ben_vulpes: i have tuned this mill to my liking.

ben_vulpes: lord knows i don't get that at $dayjob

ben_vulpes: i like machines that work out of the box.

trinque: chick I'm seeing actually you know, likes men

asciilifeform: trinque: i, for instance, hesitate to set foot in san fran even as tourist !

trinque: I do not wish to deprogram them of their muhammed

ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: i enjoy the company of adults, not children ☟︎

trinque: because I am here ☟︎

trinque: but whatever, I am "working" so deserve "living"

trinque: I work 30hrs a week doing something not economically useful yet bitch to my Yelp CEO that I am not paid a 'living wage' in a city ever less hospitable to life generally

ben_vulpes: that i care not one whit to spread my meager energy across the vast faceless mass of other people, but would rather concentrate it on these few that i actually like

asciilifeform: and what is this 'millenial disease' thing, i'm not convinced that it is a thing.

ben_vulpes: also i had all the time in the world

ben_vulpes: a friend of mine recently broke up with his girl of 4+ years, and i realized during conversation about his new dating adventures and the kinds of women he was encountering that i would have patience for approximately zero reeducation at this point in my life. ☟︎

ben_vulpes: i think the 'entitlement' to which trinque refers is a specific set of attitudes common to 'millenials'.

asciilifeform: for instance, i'm about to buy moar display. it will be an lcd. but if mircea_popescu buys another display, it won't be lcd, it'll be a thing where a gurl flips pixels manually. ☟︎

ben_vulpes: or should i say

asciilifeform: 'I’ve since stopped using my heater. Have you ever slept fully clothed under several blankets just so you don’t get a cold and have to miss work? Have you ever drank a liter of water before going to bed so you could fall asleep without waking up a few hours later with stomach pains because the last time you ate was at work? I woke up today with stomach pains. I made myself a bowl of rice.' << wtf

asciilifeform: i have nfi

phf: well, conference scene's been taken over particularly hard by the usual suspects. it was mildly useful back in 2005, because you could get a face to face, or a beer session, with useful people. for example at pycon i got to spend time with the entire twisted team, which was at a rear end of me trying to grok their stack, so i had a lot of very productive learning sessions

asciilifeform: did we ever do this (now vintage) lul? https://medium.com/@taliajane/an-open-letter-to-my-ceo-fb73df021e7a#.79otiy1lk << chick wrote this and was fired, caused media splash which i as always slept through, but it is entertaining

asciilifeform: i went to a total of 1 tech-themed con, shmoocon, and it was a pathetic waste of time

ben_vulpes: at least when i went

phf: i went to pycon twice back when guido (and part of Twisted team) were still in dc doing Zope. it was different back then(tm), but i distinctly remember there being "talks by women", not surprisingly of varied quality

asciilifeform: i have nfi what happens at a 'pycon' etc.

asciilifeform: phf: lulzily i just met one of these (as part of my official expedition duties)

trinque: I can either check each field for differences like a retard or just be given an ID that identifies the event, not the thing to which it happened

trinque: checked code, ID field indeed. were I to use timestamp, then some asshole would give me two of the same timestamp

mircea_popescu: i suspect sweat actually is also a major factor ; definitely urine. complicated matter and i'm lazy. let the curious mind run their own studies.

mircea_popescu: notrly. i think that only works in rats.

asciilifeform: i thought all they had to do was be in smellin' range.

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i thought they synced with roommates / officemates

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i was in the asylum, it had the seeds of this at the time.

mircea_popescu: honestly i think it's an outgrowth of the "college experience"

mircea_popescu: it's a very "western world" phenomena, roughly half the beatings in half the girls in the first half year have something to do with "i was surprised by X periodic event", usually a bill or w/e
