mod6: so. if i have
a coin, i want to ensure that it gets sent.
mod6: and we're still at
a point where it's
a leaf, so if it is decided that we ditch that as
a "blessed" utility or necessary change, then we ditch and we don't have to do anything else.
mod6: ref: (14:57) <+mod6> if we needed to add code everytime these gnomes comeup with
a new crapolade, that's all we'd ever be doing.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell pete_dushenski pingback mystery solved : your blog is at 23.229.239.2, but you keep sending pingbacks from 50.62.176.244. Trilema responds with
a "please send pingbacks from the blog's own IP" as discussed in
http://trilema.com/2014/o-hai-let-me-verify-your-identity/ which you're supposed to see and know why it is your pingbacks don't make it.
trinque: but I will at some point either change that or abandon sql entirely for
a CLOS db
trinque: just easier to look at, and it's not
a big table
thestringpuller: i guess the nicks act as
a foreign key cause under unique constraint and one per person...
thestringpuller: trinque: any reason ratings are done by nick and not
a foreign key?
BingoBoingo: thestringpuller: From what I understand Segwit to
a normal 1xxx adress requires
a signature in the blockchain so when segwit stops being miner enforced the recieved transaction would still be, even though it came from freemoneyshitsoup.
thestringpuller: i just don't want them to add something in
a "fork" that allows TMSR to get scammed.
mod6: if we needed to add code everytime these gnomes comeup with
a new crapolade, that's all we'd ever be doing.
☟︎☟︎ mircea_popescu: which is what it aims to be,
a sort of "let's dao bitcoin"
mircea_popescu: moreover, there ISNT, in general, and for very good reasons,
a way to verify segwit crapolade.
thestringpuller: gotcha. just never have anyone spend to your from
a fake address.
mircea_popescu: trb has no notion of "coin history". nor should it. because taint is not
a thing.
thestringpuller: cause there is no way TRB will ever enforce segwit, so there is no way it can ever truly verify
a segwit output was spent "legitimately"
thestringpuller: okay. so lets say Segwitz address starts with 'P00'. you send 1 BTC from
a standard address as inputs into the segitz address. the segwitz address now spends back to
a standard address. but the way it spends is with non-standard opcodes, so called "bastard unspent outputs". so it spends to
a real btc address "1something". When TRB validates it's the chain of tx's it'll encounter the segwit part as NO_OP. Should we just bury these coi
trinque: Python sqlite3 issues
a BEGIN statement automatically before "INSERT" or "UPDATE". After that it automatically commits on any other command or db.close()
thestringpuller: mircea_popescu: would this be similar policy to any coin that's gone into
a "3" bastard address?
mircea_popescu: many layers to
a soft fork. i personally will take any attempt to use any of this crap as an attempt to scam and negrate consequently.
thestringpuller: mod6: I was just saying if there would be
a way to bury "bastard transactions" (this include multisig), under some threshold of transactions before confirmation.
shinohai: BingoBoingo: i was going to refer to it as
a mere blip since only 1K blocks
thestringpuller: If your wallet wanted to it could go further trace these coins and delay treating them and their descendants as confirmed until the last non-understood part was buried beyond some sufficient threshold, it's simple to implement in
a full node wallet (we do tracking like that for 'negative confirmations' for conflicted transactions in core now), but so far no one has seen
a reason to beyond the basic, "ignore until confirmed" behavior.
BingoBoingo: You know making the scam thing sound like it has
a chance
mod6: Yeah, something like that. I see it spit out
a Phuctoring from 'Tony Lindgren', the top three qntras then the top four trilema's. But yeah, may have been triggered by new phuctorings - but the RSS feed didn't seem to update.
mircea_popescu: mod6 it spit out the whole list every time phuctor had
a new item i thought
mircea_popescu: "Do not use wallet contracts or owner accounts of those wallets that were created by the Ethereum Wallet 0.4.0 or earlier. If you send to (or interact with)
a malicious contract it could take ownership of your wallet contract. Create
a new wallet and move your funds."
mircea_popescu: not to mention how expedient it is for him. it is LOGICAL that it'd be
a single issue ; it's
a forced mistake hilary & all will oppose. he can now speak of only one thing, which is what he needs, and avoid hilary on all topics, which he also needs.
mircea_popescu: it's
a matter of strategy, not of engineering. these are separate concerns.
mircea_popescu: 100% victory for Nicolae Ceausescu, why not. oh, he's dead ?
a well.
mircea_popescu: well, trail-less vote is much like "poloniex" or whatever : will print as
a "result" whatever number the owner gives it.
mircea_popescu: then again, maybe it's slated for
a little later. fuckall knows.
mircea_popescu: "well, you got
a nigger elected, now get lost" sorta thing. "well, we're going out of the eu, so who were you again ?"
mircea_popescu: it's all
a question of "who picks up the upset streetwalker who still, inexplicably, thinks herself
a married middle class woman". will it be the paki gang ? the x ? the y ?
mircea_popescu: the uk has as much
a chance today to be the uk of 1816 as the state of indiana does.
Framedragger: i wonder. in times of uncertainty, investors move money elsewhere. say eu continues to crumble down, with states threatening to leave / leaving, euro going down. could gbp be eventually seen as
a "foreign stable thing" in europe? my bets are that it won't; but it'd be
a curious outcome
mircea_popescu: some will repatriate, some others will move in, but on the net it seems likely to come out negative by
a coupla trillion or so.
mircea_popescu: oh, you meant... yeah. well, the thing is, trade isn't today and hasn't for
a century+ been national. corporations trade, on mostly south asian shipping, with each other.
mircea_popescu: in the reverse, while some ru capitals may flow in (much less likely today, after the inept uk support for the cyprus theft than it would have been prior), the outflow of continental moneys might well drive
a 50% failure rate in the city.
mircea_popescu: anyway. without taxing london the eu is not sustainable. this is
a foregone conclusion. i'm curious what the germans do, but the eu has little chance of seeing 2020.
mircea_popescu: they really should be the 51st state ; same thing in the us - people thought it'd take
a lot longer to find someone even dumber and less capable than bush. and yet...
mircea_popescu: funny what crap the uk keeps pushing forth, too. you'd have thought it'd take them more than
a decade to come up with
a worse sack of shit than blair. not so, they found him by 2010.
Framedragger: and yeah, all the bilateral agreements to be done.. by whom.. fuck knows. (my plan was to switch countries in
a ~year anyway, looks like i'll stick to it)
mircea_popescu: (also i don't see how anyone seriously imagines hilary stands
a chance, but that's another matter)
mircea_popescu: i don't see how the uk is going to have
a government other than bnp or w/e they're called this year.
